End Time Army of Women Preachers Psalms 68:11

How is that soul supposed to hear the gospel? Is she is supposed to: 1) call her husband to talk to the man; 2) just tell him he needs to come to the next scheduled church service so the pastor can tell him how to be saved; 3) hand him a preprinted paper (written by a man, of course), to explain how to be saved?
If this is truly what you believe and preach regarding reaching the lost (since saved women shouldn't be having any kind of scriptural discussion with an unsaved man), then truly you are fulfilling the role of the Pharisee in the 21st century:

But woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye shut up the kingdom of heaven against men: for ye neither go in yourselves, neither suffer ye them that are entering to go in. (Matthew 23:13 KJV)

I have to say, judging from what I see of him on this forum, it's no wonder he has so much time on his hands to be posting here. I wouldn't allow him to speak to me or my family about God or anything, that's for sure. Attitude is everything. That's Biblical too.

God started with Adam, a man and man is the head of the woman. Why make it complicated.

Men, stay in your place, women stay in your place.

RDP/Pliny have yet to produce a scripture that says "a woman shalt not preach".... or that a woman cannot fulfill the role of an evangelist for that matter.

[Sister Alvear]

Pliny wrote to Trajan at the beginning of the second century that he had subjected women to the torture in persecution that he might extort confession: "Ex duabus aucillis quæ ministræ dicebantur." Evidently one of these nouns, ancilla, is the common designation of handmaid, and the other, ministra, the official name of a female servant. And this term translates the Greek diakonoV in patristic Latin. [5]

The patristic Latin could be translated: "I have judged it necessary to obtain information by torture from two servicing women (ancillae) called by them 'deaconesses' (ministrae)." [6] This may be the first reference to female deaconesses. ( This is found in almost all church history books.)

[Sister Alvear]

Everytime I see Pliny has posted I think about the above...lol...

[Sasha]

I have to wonder if RDP is really this crass in real life or if his hiding behind a computer screen aids in his ability to 'be big'?

I'm real. I am behind the computer who I am in real life. Those who have met me can attest to that.

I wouldn't mind ever meeting RDP in real life and having this same conversation with him, however, I'm sure that if he is in real life how he is behind a computer, I would quickly get up and leave.

There are many on this thread who disagree with one another, but for the most part, it's decent conversation, as it should be. Instead, he insults elder women (regardless whether or not she is 'right' in the eyes of God, it doesn't matter, that should NEVER be done), and when she expresses her concern over what she believes to be an insult, he fails to be the bigger person, apologize, whatever, and instead justifies his actions by stating that she is doing the same thing to him.

I have more respect for people who can apologize even if they are in the right that someone who could totally be in the right but bring down others while they climb on their righteous pedestal.

Keep your money, RDP. I'm sure God wouldn't want you supporting a woman you not only believe is disobeying His Word, but is in witchcraft. Spend your money on your internet bill so you can continue being here telling us what you really think.

In real life he said he heard me speak...then he should know I personally don't go around bossing men or women for that matter...

[Sister Alvear]

My personal opinion is people like our dear brother would not listen to Huldah or any other woman for that matter... However the Bible says, "Thus saith the Lord God of Israel, Tell ye the man that sent you to me, Thus saith the Lord, the God of Israel."

Huldah was responsible to deliver both blessing and judgment; pain and peace...and so it is today...

Like HIS mother of long ago said...Whatever He says...do it....He called me to be a missionary and have been on my post for almost half a century...and plan to be here working when I hear the come up higher call.....

None of the people Jesus chose were women. Women are to serve, as seen by NT scriptural examples, not lead men nor instruct men. That doesn't make them second class Christians, but it does indicate what role they are to play in the Church.
