Do You Believe In Women Preachers?

Greetings fellow Apostolics!

As many of you know there has been some controversy over the years in our ranks about women preachers. Just wanted to know what everyone's opinion is about this subject.







Also if you are against women preachers please provide scriptures and give us your explanation of why you feel this way.

Unless this command is only for males ... then women need to obey it too.

And he said unto them, Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature.

what about the apostle junia? she was a female, AND gentile if i remember correctly. the nt is replete with women 'preachers' that led congregations. pliny said that he interviewed two female slaves who were leaders of the christian congregations in his city. So, they were Gentile, women, and slaves to boot.

Interesting, and to play the other side, the very proclaiming of Jesus' resurrection was a task given to a woman!

Yes, but does that mean everytime a woman speaks of the Ressurrection of Christ, she's automatically in the set-in official position of the 5-fold ministry???? BTW, she did not "preach a sermon," but simply told of the ressurrectd Saviour................
