Here is some decent context for you...
1 Cor 14... from verse 26....
How is it the BRETHREN...
If any MAN speak...
If there be no interpreter let HIM keep his sience and let HIM speak to HIMSLEF and God...
Let two or three PROPHETS (men) speak
The spirits of the prophets (men) are subject to the prophets (men)
Let your women be silent in chuch... it is NOT PERMITTED, for them to speak in church... even if they want to learn a thing they are to ask their husbands at home.....
For it is a SHAME for them to speak in the church...

Now before we continue with 1 Cor 14, let us get Genesis in the picture...
Adam and Eve were both fine with God, until the woman was decieved, and the man sinned. It brought SHAME to Adam and Eve. The same will happen today if a woman speak in church. The woman will be decieved and the man will sin for allowing her to speak in church! If I sit in any church, and a woman starts to speak I give the men in that church about five seconds to silence her, if they do not, I stand up and walk out! If they ask me if something is wrong, I will read these verse to them. Usually they turn all agro and even say it does not come from God, and God says this....

Now continue with 1 Corinthians 14...If any man think himself to be a prophet, or spiritual, let him acknowledge that the things that I write unto you are the commandments of the Lord.
1Co 14:38 But if any man be ignorant, let him be ignorant.
1Co 14:39 Wherefore, brethren, covet to prophesy, and forbid not to speak with tongues.
1Co 14:40 Let all things be done decently and in order.

And then I will leave and do as God says... LET THEM BE IGNORANT to the TRUTH!

I seriously ask this Cobus: What of the women with no husbands to learn from? What of a church with no men of faith and conviction? Jesus does not seize power. He grows in heaven through the love that He gives and receives. So is it ignorant of a man to attach himself to a church out of love and with prayer to absorb them into the body of Christ?

I am on a limb here, but my hand is directly in Jesus'. How does a young man such as myself come into righteous authority to lead and guide others by attempting to deny them the ability to believe in themselves? I love them unconditionally and grow in front of their eyes where they can see and believe in me through Jesus Christ. I understand that the situation my be different in varying churches. But a man of God does not abandon the presence of people out of conflicting faith. I'd rather remain firm in my faith and stand solidly and sure footed. So as I walk with Jesus the church will witness His progress through me, and come to love Him and His workings in the light.

Green, I'm not going to disagree with you there. God can use women as pastors. Their fruits will show if they're of God or not of Him.

Yes, rikitiki, I support God, if He appoints a woman why get in a zone of despairing thinking, God's ways are not our ways and His thoughts arenot our thoughts

Who is that though? My username is Tintin, not Ricky-Ticky-Tavi from The Jungle Book or Rin Tin Tin the dog, it's "Tintin", you know, the boy reporter/detective from The Adventures of Tintin comics (1929-1976).

Micheal. There is only ONE church! My friend Jesus says many things about Him and Father.... this one you should remember...
Nobody knows the Father, accept the Son and to WHOM HE WANTS TO REVEL TOO!

I know this for a fact. ONLY GOD can appoint his pastors and teachers.... And Jesus said this about HIS CHURCH.... He will present to HIMSELF a church....Read these two verses and then go read Ephesians 4:11 to 13. Please my young friend!

All things are delivered unto me of my Father: and no man knoweth the Son, but the Father; neither knoweth any man the Father, save the Son, and he to whomsoever the Son will reveal him.

That he might present it to himself a glorious church, not having spot, or wrinkle, or any such thing; but that it should be holy and without blemish.
I have to go now open shop and start the week, but please do not stop asking me questions on how I believe, maybe I have it right!

I believe Yashua (Elohim,God) would have picked at least one woman as an example for leadership, as a disciple if it was his intention for women to lead...why is that not clear??

that your point is ancient history, but millions learn from white and meyers, etc. now.
God doesn't want you making people feel bad who have salvation secured by a woman pastor leading them to salvation in words as the Holy Spirit reached them, rillion

Look. You may think it's cute to use pet names for people you don't even know, but how difficult is it to just use people's usernames as they're written in their profiles?

Why dis Yahweh strike Izzy dead for doing a good thing by trying to save the ark of the covenant from falling? Because he told him not to...period...I don't think any of us are aware of the consequential of disobeying Him in this area...correction they're evident in the rebellion if women in homes...

Yahweh said no.
