so you believe women are too "emotional" to hold leadership positions? and you consider that an objective statement?
yes i did consider that you receive the message from a SPIRIT but i question the source, since it causes you to have such anger and resentment.
Galatians 5
16 I say then: Walk in the Spirit, and you shall not fulfill the lust of the flesh. 17 For the flesh lusts against the Spirit, and the Spirit against the flesh; and these are contrary to one another, so that you do not do the things that you wish. 18 But if you are led by the Spirit, you are not under the law.
19 Now the works of the flesh are evident, which are: adultery,[c] fornication, uncleanness, lewdness, 20 idolatry, sorcery, hatred, contentions, jealousies, outbursts of wrath, selfish ambitions, dissensions, heresies, 21 envy, murders,[d] drunkenness, revelries, and the like; of which I tell you beforehand, just as I also told you in time past, that those who practice such things will not inherit the kingdom of God.
I think women and men should walk in the Spirit of God and do the jobs their innate GOD given talents lead them to do. It does not matter if its leadership or a bus driver or janitor or president IT DOES NOT MATTER. What matters is that it is done for the GLORY OF GOD.
JESUS is our bridegroom and "covers" us. therefore women AND men can do anything in the name of Jesus that aids in the promotion of HIS KINGDOM.
why the power struggle? is it more important for a MAN to be in charge or for JESUS to lead us and guide us through the HOLY SPIRIT?
would you rather a man be pastor who leads the sheep to Hell with his teachings or a woman who preaches the word of God?
would you rather a CEO be male and run the company into the ground before you hire a woman who can save the company and make it profitable?
You logic escapes me and i find it ironic that you call women "emotional" I'm trying to be rational here and the only emotion i feel is pity.
Show me logic, Show me bible scriptures and I will ask God and pray for answers to why this is a contention in the church. Let God be the judge. Don't worry I would never dream of becoming a teacher or pastor or whatever to MEN. I am a woman who knows her place. I only speak to other women and CHILDREN of God.
God told me not to throw pearls before swine and not to speak to demons but simply to rebuke them. I will add not talking to "men" either I guess.
apologize to the thread from now on I will remember my place and only address the women and children of God.
by the way look at nod's profile: how can she/he be both a mom and a dad?
