Re: End Time Army of Women Preachers Psalms 68:11
If a woman is scripturally allowed to prophesy (essentially making her a "prophetess"), under what circumstances is she allowed to follow the prompting of the Holy Ghost and utter forth the prophecy? Is prophesying exempt from the keeping silent in the church "mandate?"
The word "prophesy" (prophēteuō) from Acts 2:18 is defined in Strong's as follows:
to prophesy, to be a prophet, speak forth by divine inspirations, to predict to prophesy with the idea of foretelling future events pertaining esp. to the kingdom of God to utter forth, declare, a thing which can only be known by divine revelation to break forth under sudden impulse in lofty discourse or praise of the divine counsels under like prompting, to teach, refute, reprove, admonish, comfort others to act as a prophet, discharge the prophetic office
