The same Jesus you say is the same Jesus that saved all us is the one you worship too John.
To be fair that was usually seen as a rebuke.Paul didn't want women preachers. I do remember God put a woman, Deborah, in charge of Israel for a time.
Did God or Jesus say women couldn't preach? I'm not debating. I'm just going to sit here quietly, shut up, and pull for the Chiefs to beat the Ravens. I assume you are watching the game, also.To be fair that was usually seen as a rebuke.
I'm not debating. I'm just going to sit here quietly, shut up and drink my coffee, while I read about you guys arguing about me.

Not cool enough to even know what they are running around for. LolDid God or Jesus say women couldn't preach? I'm not debating. I'm just going to sit here quietly, shut up, and pull for the Chiefs to beat the Ravens. I assume you are watching the game, also.
God doesn't qualify mankind by what is between their legs.WHY do some people think it's OK for women to be pastors and teachers in authority over men when God's Word is very clear that this is not God's order of His will???
Maybe traditions in the church are okay. IDK
I have no issues with women holding the position of a deacon.
The very stated purpose of prophesying is to speak unto men. "The one however prophesying to men speaks for edification and encouragement and consolation" (1 Cor. 14:3). Paul gave instructions for the manner in which prophesying could be done by one and all in the assemblies - women included.

Have you forgotten Genesis 1:27, 'So God created man in his own image, in the image of God he created him; male and female he created them.
Well, that would be the "presbyteros" men elders and the "presbyteras" women elders which Paul wrote about. But really, all in the assembly are required to be exercising judgment on what they hear spoken concerning scripture - not just the elders.And, anyone who is prophesying is subject to their message being judged by the elders
You misread God's statement. God was not dictating a command for the husband to rule over the wife. He was warning the original couple of the sad results which their fall into sin was going to bring upon themselves. The unfortunate result was that men would end up dominating women, and that women in fear would defer to what men thought instead of turning to God as their leader.2. Eve, and consequently all women, were placed under a penalty of the curse. This included pain in childbearing and that her husband would rule over her.

I leave the preaching to Mr. Duck, who would also say that women cannot preach. Maybe traditions in the church are okay. IDK
Well since I can't say anything LOL maybe Mr. Duck will maybe, possibly @SERVANTedu
Did God or Jesus ever say women can't preach?1 Tim 3, titus 1:6.
A lot of egalitarians would tell you that the passage "I do not permit a woman to teach or exercise authority over a man" 1 tim 2:12 had more to do with pagan practices in Ephesus and how paul was attempting to differentiate the Christian church from those practices. However, if you look at the qualifications for a overseer you find a woman couldn't meet them.

Many years ago, I lived for 16 years under a cult-like church environment where there was an overwhelming and continual emphasis on the supreme authority of the single man in the pulpit, and the squelching of women, wives, and daughters into a totally inferior category. It was a poisonous environment. Upon looking back, I see now where the scriptures were twisted out of their proper intent. Your overriding emphasis on the power of the role of a minister, deacon, or elder is very similar. It also goes directly against Christ's instruction to His disciples NOT to be obsessed with authority like the Gentiles were.He specifically said in His Word that pastors, teachers, deacons (church leaders) are in fact men.
Woman cannot hold positions of authority in the Body of Christ according to God's Word.
Women can witness in public since this nobody needs to be pastors, teachers, deacons (church leaders) to do so.
