I am not saying that God would use a homsexual or anyone that is against Him. But, if He wants to use a woman that loves and trust in Him. Why not. A man can be homsexual, will God use him just because he is a man. I will agree that most of the time God appoints men as pastors or preachers. But,if He wants to use a woman and He has. Then who are to cry foul against God and say He is wrong. It is obvious that He has used women on many occasions. Will we ask God to repent of His wrongdoing.
Because God would not contradict his word. Homosexuals will use the same argument: "God is using me to persuade the church that same sex marriage is not a sin." God has already told us in Scripture how he feels about homosexual relations. There's no way he's going to change his mind. Why can't you just accept that God has different roles for men and women? Why do women feel the need to have what a man has? Satan was the one who was cast out of heaven for wanting to have equality.

You should read my earlier post about Solomon. Also, read how David ate the showbread which was not lawful. God does what He wants to do and we cannot put in our own confines. Yes we trust in the word, but you can not use His word to confine Him. Look, if you build your house to withstand a ten earthquake, if He wants to take down He will send a thirteen.

Again for most here, THEIR MOTHER WAS THEIR FIRST TEACHER. And again yet ANOTHER dead argument which only serves to divide and keep us seperated. But no one listens.

"Suffer not a woman to teach" is dealing with the same woman (whore) in Revelation. Certainly you all do not believe that all the kings of the earth literally had sex with a single female do you?

There is only two times that Jesus marvelled one was a gentile women and the other a roman centurion. He marvelled at their faith.

It amazes me that people say God can't do something. God does what He pleases. If He wants to use cricket, will you challenge Him on that. Who are we to say what God can use.
Are you suggesting that God can do even things contrary to His own Word?

For some reason I feel we need to go to another thread and discuss why it is important to know the differences in symbolism, and literal meaning in Revelation.

God can do things that we cannot imagine. We think we know His word and no He will not contradict. Its like lawyers arguing over the definition of the word "is". God is the ultimate lawyer and We by no means can contend with Him.

lol, that would take to long, because we would have to bring all the OT prophesies in with it.. Took nme years to figure it all out, and I am still learning.. and not sure I got everything right.
