Women teaching in the Church today?
Are women allowed to teach in the body of Christ today? This is a major problem in the Church today, only because we do not understand the scriptures, so we have “LOGICALLY ANALYTICALLY” made things up that the Lord never intended, and that by using scriptures to prove it.
The Church's that come “AGAINST” women teachers the most have no problems with women teaching Sunday school classes as if the location or the building size has anything to do with it!!! God's anointing is not limited to any specific place. It makes no difference where the Word is being taught, the Holy Spirit is there to work his miracles whether in a small Sunday school room class or large auditorium!! These Churches are “HYPOCRITES” in their thinking!!
If women were not allowed to speak for God, or under the control of the Holy Spirit, then there should no place in scriptures where we find women doing so, as God is the same yesterday, today, and forever. (He changes not)
The Bible is filled with women speaking under the guidance of the Spirit of God.
Debora was one of Israel,s greatest prophets. She was also the fourth “judge” and the only woman to hold that position for the nation of Israel. She was so loved that the generals of Israel would not go to war unless she went with them to battle!! (Judges chapters 4 – 5) Deborah was a Prophet, military leader, and minstrel for more than 60 years!!
Then we have “Miriam, Huldah, Noadiah, and the Prophet Isaiah's wife, whose name we do not know.
In the New Testament, we have the “prophetess Anna” who lived during the time of Jesus. She would prophesy every day to all who would come unto the temple, and she did this day and night!! (Luke 2:36-38) Now that's what I call a long service record.
We have the very first preacher of the New Testament, who just happens to be “Mary Magdaline” who first saw the risen Lord. Jesus tells her.....
John 20:17 Jesus saith unto her, Touch me not; for I am not yet ascended to my Father: but GO TO MY BRETHREN, AND SAY UNTO THEM, I ASCEND UNTO MY FATHER, and your Father; and to my God, and your God.
John 20:18 MARY MAGDALENE CAME AND TOLD THE DISCIPLES that she had seen the Lord and that he had spoken these things unto her.
Notice: Jesus did not say to her, “go find me a man so he can go and preach the Gospel to my brethren”
But does not the Bible teach that WOMEN are to keep silent in the Church?
1Co 14:34 LET YOUR WOMEN KEEP SILENCE IN THE CHURCHES: FOR IT IS NOT PERMITTED UNTO THEM TO SPEAK, but they are commanded to be under obedience, as also saith the law.
1Co 14:35 And if they will learn anything, let them ask their husbands at home: for it is a shame for women to speak in the church.
In the Greek language, there is no word for “WIFE” so it used the word “WOMEN”. If we read the very next verse we find out that what the Apostle Paul was referring to was not “WOMEN” but “WIFES”!!! verse 35:
1 Cor 14:35 And if they (WIFES) will learn anything, let them ask their HUSBANDS at home: for it is a shame for women (WIFES) to speak in the church.
It is pretty annoying for anyone whether it be a husband or wife to speak when a Church service is going on.
1Ti 2:11 LET THE WOMAN LEARN IN SILENCE WITH ALL SUBJECTION.
1Ti 2:12 BUT I SUFFER NOT A WOMAN TO TEACH, NOR TO USURP AUTHORITY OVER THE MAN, but to be in silence.
1Ti 2:13 For Adam was first formed, then Eve.
1Ti 2:14 And Adam was not deceived, but the woman being deceived was in the transgression
1Ti 2:15 Notwithstanding she shall be saved in childbearing if they continue in faith and charity and holiness with sobriety.
Here again, we find Paul is NOT talking about all women, he is talking about “WIFES”, and “HUSBANDS” which is why he mentions Adam, and Eve who were husband and wife!!
Man is the head of his wife, but only in a “MARRIAGE” CONTRACT!!! I am a man, but I am not the head of any other women except for my wife!! I am surely not the head of any other man's wife, as that would cause a lot of bad feelings, and fights among the Church members.
If a “HUSBAND” does not take his God-given right to be the head of his family in marriage, I can tell you for sure the “WIFE” will step up to the plate and take on that responsibility her self, and I don't blame her, neither does God.
Man is only the head of his wife in “marriage”, but he is not the head of his wife in Christ!!! There is no “MALE” or “FEMALE” in the Lord!!! (Gal 3:28) Christ is the head of the women in the same way Christ is the head of the man in the Lord!! It was very common during the days of Jesus, that women were much less educated than men, but today we do not have that problem as all men and women are equally educated.
1Tim 3:1 This is a true saying, If a MAN desires the office of a bishop, he desireth a good work.
1Tim 3:2 A bishop then must be blameless, THE HUSBAND OF ONE WIFE, vigilant, sober, of good behavior, given to hospitality, apt to teach;
The word, “MAN” does not mean “MALE”!!! It means “WHOEVER, WHOSOEVER, or ANYONE”!! We just assume it means a “MAN” (Male). Then it says, that person must be the “HUSBAND” of one wife. This does not mean that this person (WHOEVER, WHOSOEVER, ANYONE) hast to be a man. It says if this person happens to be a MAN, then he must be the husband of just one wife.
Paul does not mention that a woman would have this problem because it was very easy for a man to divorce his wife for almost no reason at all. Women did not have that luxury, under the Old or New Testament, so he does not need to mention it here.
When we find the word “MAN”, or “HE” in these scriptures these words do not mean “MALE” but whoever, whosoever, anyone. The word HE simply means he, or she, or a person.
If the Lord God did not want “WOMEN” to speak or teach in the Church, then he should have told the Holy Spirit not to come upon them (women) so that they can!! All 120 people in the upper room along with ALL the WOMEN spoke in tongues on the day of Pentecost, declaring the Wonders of God to all who heard them out in the streets and that in a Church setting!!!
Psa 68:11 The Lord gives the word; THE WOMEN WHO ANNOUNCE THE NEWS ARE A GREAT HOST: (ESV)
