Wife Having to Step Up as Shepherd..?

[Joseph Carey Jr.]

How do you all feel about a woman having to step up as pastor, because of whatever circumstance with her husband, such as death, sickness, steps out of position/fall into sin and no longer decides to obey the Lord, etc.. Would you see this as her being the help meet in carrying the ministry until someone else is raised up, such as the son? I see this has to happen a lot because of no ministers willing to take position, not in position, no one trained for situation such as this, or no assistant pastors to take position. And if this has to happen, what do you think is the proper way to handle it. Is it biblical knowledge associated with it?

Oh my goodness!!!!

Brother Watson - what more is there to say?  Except Amen.

Brother Watson,

Titus is not a book that too many Christian women think is of worth studying or being guided by.  And I dont fault them because the leaders will explain it away rather than feed that Holy Word as a holy meal - which is for the Body and for the women of the Body in particular.

Hah!  And they want to know where all the effeminate men have come from in the church?

That spirit that tells women to move out of their place and out of their calling - is the same spirit that says God has no problem with homosexuality.

Then they should seek and the word say they shall find.  There are churches that need women to help in the ministry, but for whatever reason the women don't want to join and the churches they do join seem to be the churches that Rev. Watson spoke of above the churches who are growing and prospering, and it has absolutely nothing to do with God, but self gratifying.  Holding positions in which they have no business, entering callings that they say God has called, but not even dressing the part etc.  It is a very sad day in the CHURCH.  Hosea 4 says:

¹Hear the word of the LORD, ye children of Israel: for the LORD hath a controversy with the inhabitants of the land, because there is no truth, nor mercy, nor knowledge of God in the land.

 ²By swearing, and lying, and killing, and stealing, and committing adultery, they break out, and blood toucheth blood.

 ³Therefore shall the land mourn, and every one that dwelleth therein shall languish, with the beasts of the field, and with the fowls of heaven; yea, the fishes of the sea also shall be taken away.

 ⁴Yet let no man strive, nor reprove another: for thy people are as they that strive with the priest.

 ⁵Therefore shalt thou fall in the day, and the prophet also shall fall with thee in the night, and I will destroy thy mother.

 ⁶My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge: because thou hast rejected knowledge, I will also reject thee, that thou shalt be no priest to me: seeing thou hast forgotten the law of thy God, I will also forget thy children.

 ⁷As they were increased, so they sinned against me: therefore will I change their glory into shame.

 ⁸They eat up the sin of my people, and they set their heart on their iniquity.

 ⁹And there shall be, like people, like priest: and I will punish them for their ways, and reward them their doings.

 ¹⁰For they shall eat, and not have enough: they shall commit whoredom, and shall not increase: because they have left off to take heed to the LORD.

 

Everyone is doing their own thing and have committed spiritual adultry...gone astray from their first love, which is Christ Jesus and have gone after their own fleshly desires.  No one wants to obey God simple commands, because it interfers with their own desires.

Amen Rev. Watson....but when you don't have Pastors, Preachers and Teachers teaching what thus saith the Lord you have this falling away syndrome.  God is coming back for His church and I wonder do they REALLY think they will see the Kingdom of Heaven?  Revelations say He's coming quickly and those that are Holy let them be Holy still and those that are filthy let them be filthy still.  The preachers are telling them once saved always saved, but not telling them they have to be BORN AGAIN in order to see the kingdom of heaven.  They have seered their minds with a candy coated God, santa claus God that forgives any and all things without punishment.  We are truly living in a rebellous world and God is NOT PLEASED.  I went WOW on Jeremiah, but didn't want to post, because people tend to think you are judging when the Word of God has already JUDGED and still JUDGES....LOL  I can't say nothing no different or better than God...the wages of sin is death and disobedience is the beginning of deaths road.
