    Can women teach in the church? men? women? children? be a helper to the pastor?
  • Car - In Reply on Romans 16 - 3 years ago
    When our late beloved Asst. Pastor (female) was still with us, she used to preach at Church too but now she's with The LORD in Heaven. Our beloved Pastor (male) is still unable to preach at Church due to his health condition.

    Right now, men preachers are the ones assigned to preach at Church (main and outreach stations).

    There are endless options to serve The LORD our GOD JESUS CHRIST. For women alone, we have a big list we can choose from like in my case, singing to GOD as part of choir members, setting up the curtains, cleaning the toilets, testifying for the manifold blessings, and miraculous healing from GOD (during our testimony portion) and just being super happy receiving The Holy Spirit in The Name of JESUS at our Church. I don't have kids yet but GOD-willing, I would love to have a baby boy for some reason and see him knowing and understanding about GOD's love.

    GOD is The GOD of peace and orderliness. HE HIMSELF even chose to be born as a Son of Man to give HIS Powerful Name to us which is JESUS.

    The order then is:

    1) GOD

    2) Man

    3) Woman

    4) Children of GOD

    Now I feel like answering your question based on what I see at our Church which works perfectly fine for us, no complaints:

    Only men do the preaching time.

    Some moms, sisters, and girlfriends there teach kids during Sunday school for cute Bible study on the side. But most women just sit there and listen during the preaching time.

    I haven't seen children preach at the pulpit but rather they just enjoy being kids there. Some attend the Bible study for kids, some join the kiddy cherubims choir, others just cry and laugh - whatever they please.

    It's such a beautiful Church. If you're looking for one, please see: The JESUS Miracle Crusade International Ministry

    Regardless, please do yourself a favor and continue in the faith in and obedience to GOD. HALLELUJAH! PRAISE THE LORD!

    Car,

    I believe a woman on fire for Jesus, can lead in an intercessory prayer group. We need people who can tear down strongholds of self-doubt; to do some business with the Holy Spirits leadership.

    Study on how Jesus prayed. Even King David in the Psalms. Children and teenagers in Proverbs. Always Ephesians 6 so we can understand our enemies are invisible; that's why we put on our Armor. Deborah in the Book of Judges came on the scene when their was need for strong leadership was imperative. We can all prevail with unshakable faith in prayer.

    Take the prayer requests, pray for individuals; lay hands on numerous requests, lay hands on them in the Prayers of AGREEMENT is powerful. God knows each name on the Prayer List! Do not doubt that.

    God is omnipresent and He blesses prayer ministries. All women should be taught to lead so no one person has to do it every time you come together. You can get a lot done in an hour before or after church.

    All we have to do is touch God with our faith.

    My little grandmother sent me love letters from Jesus when I was in my sinful life. I always thought about that drawer full of her love and prayers for me. That reality tore down satans kingdom in my life and then The Kingdom of God flooded into my present life.

    Our world is getting darker now and it's time to Let Your Light Shine. You know I watched that War Room DVD. It makes me think of both my Christian Grandmother's. They are who I want to see 2nd, in heaven.

    Go get em.

    Albert,

    1 Timothy 2:11-15 gives us instruction on the proper function of the church. In the church, a woman is not to teach men or be placed in a position of authority over the men.

    Verse 12 says, But I suffer not, that is I do not allow a woman to teach, nor to usurp authority over the man.

    We've got two things here. I do not allow a woman to teach. There's one. It doesn't say anything about men. Nor, to usurp authority over the man, which is why they shouldn't teach.

    The term usurp authority over the man is the word authenticate. And it means that the woman is not to take the authenticity of man, what the male was created to do.

    We read in Titus that the women are to take the younger women and teach them how to keep their home and love their husband and raise their children.



    We're talking about doctrinal issues in the church. A woman is not to teach, nor to take the authenticity of man, don't take over for him, but to be in silence. That's what Paul said. They are to learn in silence.

    This is not to say that women are not good teachers. But God's proper order in the church does not allow for the woman to teach the men or be in a position of authority over the men in the church.

    I know this is not a popular teaching in today's society but this is what the Bible teaches. I personally think there are many women who can do a far better job than some of the men in the church, but God's word simply does not allow it. How do we bypass verse 12 with a clear conscience?

    Joel 2:28-32

    is a prophesy about the Last Days.

    Servants and hand maids are we.

    If we pray always to the Lord of the Harvest, God will arrange divine appointments. That's the first thing Jesus taught me about being an evangelist: one who carries the Good News.

    All things work together for good...

    I think everything should be done decently and in order, as the Bible teaches. If God calls someone to ministry, He Will make a way for it.

    The Tree (Jesus) is known by its Fruit. Without the Anointing of the Holy Spirit; the way will be difficult. Prepare. Follow Jesus.

    Dear everyone, remember to carry on with each other with great patience and love. Please follow me in the word of God, Jesus Christ and the Holy Ghost.

    Unfortunately have these word that you ask Albert Grey about, done a lot of damage in dayes before and even today. The question is a reason for splitting around ppl who want too serve the Lord of Lords and King of Kings.

    What is teaching?

    Whom is teacher? The Holy Ghost is.

    Who can teach? The Holy Ghost can.

    A speech dont necessarily need too be a lession. But in the community it need too be some rules. So everyone have a possibility too come forward, too share, too pray, too drive out demons, to heal, too sing mm. If its not soo, please look on the love in the society. And dont forget too share the Bread and Wine. Soo everyone dont have something too hide.

    Our enemy is going around to catch anyone who is open too be taken, dont be naive.

    There are certain prerequisites to be a teacher in the Scripture, who is not the same who rules in everyday tasks.Here's a big confusion, it's many different religion's on the planet today, who proven suppress the woman today, as before. And when the script is said so, all men agree. And many of the women too. Because they dont need too bothered about a thing. And I'll wonder is that the real truth_

    And at last dont forget to love your wife unconditional. Like He gives us, if not the earning of your pray will not come thru. Gods Word is not something too play around with! It's a school in the spiritual world, with praying and fasting.

    So if your wife always is sick, you too is!

    Fall on your knees and pray for healing in the whole body! That is you and her, and all of us who call them selfs a christian. Pray for salvation and fully healing. We carries eash other's burdens.

    I'll Love you all in Jesus name. Soo many more words come too me but my caracters is too many. We all need to come close too the Lord and give Him all thing whom is you and whom is me.Amen
