Re: Can Women Pastor ?
 

Just curious, I personally know a lady preacher who gets up & spits & sputters, hollering & screaming while her husband sits out there tending to their little girl [talk about role reversals!?]. She says it's the "anointing," but, sorry, God does not "anoint" women to act like men.

I personally have only seen her testify, & it made me nauseated [as well as others], as I will not sit in a room where a woman gets up to "teach/preach" to men. But, let's just say I know this woman verrrrrrrrrrrrrrrry well, since I used to pastor her.

What are your thoughts about women who acts like this? Do you not think this is improper behaviour? I have my own responses from a biblical perspective, but this thought just occurred to me.

Have to respond later, gotta' rum for now.

yes, she needs to be sat down...a lady must be a lady at all times...I think a lady can give a message from God in a lady like manner...call it preaching,testifying or whatever...


It makesme shiver and sweat at the same time to see a lady act man like...I feel horrible around ladies like that...

Personally when I feel something from the Lord I talk to him (my husband ,my pastor, my leader) and see how he feels...If he gives me the go ahead I share with the church. We work together BUT he is my leader and I respect him for that...something else a godly woman keeps her house clean, her body clean...Her husband´s clothes are clean and ironed...
The husband´s appearance refects on the wife....(well just my thoughts)

My husband is such a kind person so he does not fit in groups that are mean to their wives...

Sometimes our culture causes us to see through different eyes...I personally founded this work in Brazil as a young single girl...and had churches when we married. I do not like positions and slowly worked myself out of many jobs...today I do what I always dreamed of doing...type Bible studies...however there was a time I had to do about everything...It is MY opinion that a wise woman would never want to push a man aside...she is wise when she knows how to step back in the shadows...

The burden has nothing to do with the platform...people that love to be seen and heard are usually those that do nothing....

talking about a woman her family KNOWS what she really is...

Re: Can Women Pastor ?
 

and I do not feel called to pastor....

Just wanted to point out that the term "elder" is always in the masculine, never feminie, in the Bible. Some appeal to the term "office" [as in "office of a bishop"] which is in the feminie, yet the one who fills this office is invariable ALWAYS in the Masculine. This is the same word used for Judas's office in Acts 1, the day of Christ's visitation, etc. who were clearly men, not women. So, the noun 'office' is feminie, but the one who fills this position is always masculine.

I agree about platforms & those who love to be in the spotlight. You can sense it at camp-meetings. Most of the preachers lust after the platform & pulpit. I honestly feel like the Lord allowed me to see that the American ministers are very thirsty for the accolaids & esteem of other men, while parading about in masks of "humility." Oh, & if you're not in the pentecostal "click" [which you usually have to be born into] forget ever preaching a camp-meeting. Makes me wonder if God only speaks to His people thru these same voices each year, or is someone not seeking God's face for the right man, whoever that might be???
