Women are ordained by GOD to preach the gospel!
The Bible teaches that, "Truth crushed to the ground is rising again!" (Ps. 85:11 PP). A part of that truth that is springing forth from the earth is the truth about God and women. Scripture tells us that the 'the letter killeth, the spirit giveth life' (2 Cor. 3:6). A lot of things are written in Scripture that seemingly forbid women participation in the church. However, research has found that Paul's words were taken out of context and in fact, had more to do with protocol going on in the newly established churches of that time.
In the meantime, God's wisdom has taught me many things with regard to His will for women. The first thing taught is that God's will was always for 'men and women' to speak and Glorify His name everywhere, including in the church. Let us remember the original word from God concerning 'Adam/man' and 'Adam/woman' (Note:Scripture tells us that God originally referred to the man and woman as 'Adam' (Gen. 5:2) Adam then called the 'woman,' 'woman' and God honored that (Gen. 2:23-24). It was only after the fall that the 'woman' was named 'Eve' (Gen. 3:20). Talk about the '3 faces of Eve,' eh?
At any rate, the original will of God was 'equality' for man and woman. Scripture tells us that 'God put His Spirit in both WOMEN and men' (Mal. 2:15). As so, if the spirit of the Living God abides in women just as it does in men then it is impossible that God would mean, 'women can't speak or preach in church' for how else can one express the power, might, glory of God but by speaking it?
Where else can we glorify God amongst our own but in the church? Besides, Scripture says, 'the body is the temple of the Lord' and therefore we must glorify God in our 'Temple/body.' How much more shall we glorify God amidst a united temple of believers who dwell in church buildings? (1 Cor. 3:16). It is wrong to teach otherwise. The original command was 'God blessed, 'THEM', not just HIM but HER as well and stated, 'have dominion (subdue with kindness) the Earth and all that is therein" (Gen. 1:26-28). That's 'dominion' over the Earth and NOT each other.
Now, that said, the function of men and women is quite different. Masculinity does act as a figure head, that Femininity just naturally yields to within a marriage setting. I cannot tell you how many women want to feel protected with a strong, intelligent, righteous man. Unfortunately, with men so screwed up today, they are going to stay in 'want.'
At any rate, this function is proper in a marriage setting alone. Amidst that setting, the woman enjoys playing the nurturer, co-counselor in all 'decision' making aspects for Scripture says, 'it was not good for man to be alone' (Gen. 2:18). What that means is, not only physically alone, but as well alone, in making decisions. Hence, God would emphasize the importance of the woman's role when God brought His creation 'woman' to man. He more or less told Adam, 'now listen, you've been enjoying naming animals and the such, but now, this wonderful creation 'woman' is not for you to 'take authority over' in the sense that you have had the joy of naming animals I brought to you. She is now co-namer of all things with you. She is your equal and you must listen and heed her wisdom as that which is as great and important to your survival than your own thinking. In fact, she is your survival, your 'helper!' You cannot mentally, spiritually, etc, function right without her wise input!' (Gen. 2:24).
God seemed to instinctively know that He would have to strongly get that point across to the man as if he didn't, trouble would surely, erupt. Through the subsequent actions with regard to the 'fall', we see God was right to emphasize the importance of equality. That is, the first thing Adam did after the fall was 'blame' 'God and the woman.' He stated, 'it was that WOMAN that YOU gave me who is responsible for this' (Gen. 3:12).
That un-repentant mindset of Adam was passed down to men and to this day, men 'blame and fault' women for the wrongs of the world. Women in Scripture have always been portrayed from a negative perspective. In fact, women have been lied upon and blasphemed (Rev. 13:6).
For instance, Mary Magdalene has always been portrayed as a 'prostitute' when research now tells us that she was not. The same thing with 'Rahab'. Research now finds out that her alleged 'prostitution' was in reality, idol worship. Yeah sure, that Philistine woman, Delilah seduced Samson but he was just as guilty for going after that worldly type of woman in the first place. However, preachers curse her more than Samson's stupid, downright ridiculously flaunted 'worldly' behavior amidst being spirit-filled. (Jud. 13-16).
At any rate, back to the 'fall' and the different mentality that was about the man versus the woman. The woman fessed up to her wrongs. She admitted that she willfully listened to the deceiving serpent (Gen. 3:13). In so doing, she left no un-repentant ground for Satan to use. This is why righteous women throughout Scripture have always been the first to know of, and proclaim the might of God. Just look at the case of Samson's mother. The angel came to her, and she preached the truth to her husband, who doubted and was later visited by the angel (Judg. 13:2-25).
God's spirit was in Deborah and she was 'Judge' of all Israel (Judgs. 4). This truth alone, proves that God could not have meant that 'women shouldn't preach' as this woman not only preached, but led the whole nation.
Remember, Scripture says, 'God is the same today, yesterday and forever' (Heb. 13:8). Meaning, He did not mean for only these women of Old Testament Biblical history to lead and preach. Just look at the greatest miracle in American history, the woman Harriet Tubman. She bore witness that God raised 'HER' up. 19 times she went into the south and freed groups of God's enslaved people and 19 times, she successfully came out with men, women and children. No man, equalled what this valiant woman of God did. See then, God through his 'actions' is teaching us that 'He uses whom He will and His will is for women to preach, teach, prophesy and do exploits.' (Dn. 11:32).
Also, because of the King Barack's 'doubt and fear' during the reign of Deborah, the spirit of the Lord used the might and strength of the woman Jael to shame the 'man's' weakness and fear. Yes, Jael is the 'woman' song and praised throughout the ages for bringing down the enemy King Sisera (4:17-24). Can we hear a "Michele's in the white house representing?" :-)
Again, God's spirit is in both men and WOMEN and niether were meant to be constrained via demented males purposely misinterpreting the role of women. Male's misinterpretation stifled and destroyed many a good woman. Also, let us remember that God's testimony is, 'I hate divorce (Mal. 2:15). Yet, out of love and concern for women God allowed divorce in order to stop men from destroying women (Mal. 2:15).
In other words, 'divorce' was a gifted weapon from God to women. Fallen male's treatment of women can destroy the woman's role and function and so wreak havoc on planet earth. This happened in the past and it is happening today. In fact, it is prophesied that the anti-Christ will have no 'desire for women' (Dn. 11:37).
It is the spirit of Satan working through the hardhearted, un-repented mindset of fallen males. That 'Adam-ic' 'blame God and women' mentality is seen in males mistreatment of women worldwide. See, when Adam did not take responsibility for what he did, that part of his mindset became 'corrupted fertile ground.' As a result, Satan has had a field day using males to destroy God's precious creation, woman.
Just look at the so-called religion of Islam. The woman is oppressed and sorely afflicted. In Africa, the woman is chattel. The same with Asian nations. The male's warped, twisted mindset with regard to women keeps women and those nations steeped in darkness, chaos, destruction and death. This is the state of mind Adam unleashed for Satan to abuse when he did not repent of his evil participation in the fall and instead, 'blamed God and the woman' (Gen. 3:12).
Yet, we saw God's remedy towards Adam's action of standing there allowing the woman to be deceived (Gen. 3:1-8). God stepped in as husband to the woman and stood the ground that Adam should have stood by immediately expelling the serpent. At any rate, the serpent thought God's wrath would be upon the woman. However, instead, God stood up for the woman and informed the serpent that He too, would use the same trusting nature of the woman to bring down Satan's evil that he had just pulled off. In other words, God is proclaiming, "He still loves and cherishes the magnificent 'woman' He created."
However, let me say this, God did warn the woman of one of the consequences of her disobedience, he stated with regard to her husband Adam, 'your desire shall be for your husband, and he shall have rule over you' (Gen. 3:16). Male preachers have erroneously taught that that means God was giving the man 'rule over the woman.' However, reality is, God was warning the woman that the once 'equality' relationship she had with her husband in the garden was now 'destroyed'. The man would take 'illegal' rule over the woman. She would think or desire to be like it once was, but it was no more.
At any rate, God would use a woman to bring forth the redeemer to get back what Adam had just given away (Gen. 3:15). God would also 'put enmity' between Satan and the woman. Meaning, though Satan now had fertile ground to use the man's un-repentant state, the righteous women throughout the ages would be the key vessels used by the Most High to destroy the works of the devil.
Hence, we are told of mighty women used by God. There was Miriam the prophetess and leader of Israel right along with her brother Aaron and Moses. (Ex. 15:20; Mic. 6:4; etc.). Ruth and Naomi would come forth obediently setting the stage for the birth of King David who would be a type of Christ (Ruth 4:13-22). Esther would come forth and be the vessel God would use to stop a satanic genocide (Est.). Rahab a gentile African woman would be used to destroy idolatrous Canaanite factions (Josh. 2). Etc.
On and on the list would go of women being used mightily by God. As well, prophecy says in the last days, 'God would pour out His spirit on our sons and DAUGHTERS' (Joel 2:28-29). God said, the 'daughters' i.e. females i.e women would prophesy.' Well how can women prophesy i.e speak the profound truths of God if they are not allowed to 'speak or preach' in the church? Besides, in the New Testament this prophecy was fulfilled as Scripture makes mention of the 4 DAUGHTERS of Phillip 'prophesying' (Acts 21:9; 2:17). Again, the 'letter' i.e. 'written word' killeth but the Spirit through it 'actions' towards women gives life and truth with regard to God's will for women.
As so, on Pentacost, the Holy Spirit sure didn't believe women couldn't preach as the Holy Spirit came upon men and WOMEN and both were heard to be speaking the wisdom of God (Acts 2:17).
Not only that, prior to pentacost it was 'women' who were the first to know of, and speak the might and praises of God with regard to the Messiah's entrance on planet earth. Whereas, disobedient man was unaware of what was going on with regard to prophecy. Just read Luke's account of Elizabeth and Mary whose Hebrew name is Miriam. (Luke 1:39-56;) The fact is, the man Zachariah was stricken deaf and dumb for his 'unbelief' but not so, with the women. They with a loud voice, proclaimed, preached, annouced, and praised God before all of heaven for the miracle messiah that was now on Earth residing in the womb of young Mary/Miriam (Lk. 1:18-25).
Also, know this, it was women alone, who were the FIRST to know of the resurrected Christ (Matt. 28:1-11). It was none other than angels of the Most High, and Jesus himself, who commanded 'WOMEN' in the form of Mary Magdalene and the other 'women' to PREACH the first resurrection message (Mk. 16:1-8). The fact is, the might and righteousness of women gave them the strength to go to the tomb with intent to fulfill the Hebrew burial laws of God come what may, soldiers or no soldiers.
Whereas, the men were all cowardly hidden away. However, the women's fearless strength caused them to be the FIRST to PREACH of the resurrection. How then can preacher's erroneously preach that 'women must be silent, can't speak or preach?' The fact is, Paul must, have meant something else as he himself, often commended women preachers.
There was priscilla who was called an apostle right along with her husband (Acts 18:2, 18.26; Rom. 16:3). Phoebe was called a 'servant' but the Greek word for 'servant' was 'minister or preacher' (Rom. 1:16). Oh, and what happened to the many women on Pentacost who were baptized in the Holy Spirit? (Acts 2:17). Do you think they just kept silent after that day? No! It would have been a sin if they had. Instead, they too, went forth 'preaching and teaching.' We know that there were active spiritual groups run by women as Paul came upon the woman Lydia (Acts 16:14). Of a surety, she and the women with her were baptized in the Holy Spirit (Acts. 16:14-15).
In all these matters, please know of a certainty, that the 'letter' of the word taught erroneously has been a violation of God's will with regard to women. Women, like men, were ordained by Jesus/Yahshua Himself, to "go into all the world and PREACH' the gospel' (Mk. 16:15-18).
Bottom line, as all are baptized in the Holy Spirit, then 'all,' meaning both men and 'women,' should preach the word of God to a lost and dying world. We should not forsake the assemblying of ourselves together. We must come together as righteous men and WOMEN to preach, teach, prophesy within the church (Heb. 10:25).. It is the will of God. As such,, who can withstand it and prevail?!
In the meantime, God's wisdom has taught me many things with regard to His will for women. The first thing taught is that God's will was always for 'men and women' to speak and Glorify His name everywhere, including in the church.

Now you want Scripture, but when you have Scripture detailing the lies of Adam you yet dismiss it, even according to your own words, that names mean nothing. Well, names in the garden clearly meant something to God as he bothered to give them and to correct Adam in disobediently changing and then also denying them. Shall we now call you "Fred"? How about "Mister" or "Hey You"?
It seems African-American men rightly took issue at being called "boy" by a white society. So are you saying that too would mean nothing to you today? How about if/when someones refers to President Barack Obama as a "boy" do you brush that off too as you do an Adam who saw fit to only call the female "Woman?" What do names mean? you say. Try calling a female you live with at home "Woman" and see how far you get. Names mean something. Please. Submit to the Light. -

You have not proven any lies by Adam/not in scripture/ and your opinion means nothing.....
You can be so ignorant as to call me what you will but I do know who I am....
If one has an issue as to what they are being called/ tht is of no never mind to me.......
Again Scripture/ Same Chapter
Genesis 3 9-10 And the Lord called unto Adam, and said unto him Where art thou?????
And he said, I heard thy voice in the Garden and I was afraid, because I was naked; and i hid myself...
And you continue to say he lied/ yet when called out to HE answered/ not her.........
Funny this is the samoe old thing;
You say " it seems African American Men rightly took issue at being called Boy by a White society" But right now Today as in Yesterday the African American Men Belittle each other everyday as worse or worse than the White Society...... Don't speak for the Man....
I am not in the Barack Hussein Obama Fan Club/ What they call him is the same as they call me/ I will say what i always say/ Keep on working doing what you are suppose to and they will be found out to be liars.......
And again Woman, you have not provided the scriptures as to Adam lying..... please do....
And if one has a problem with being called a MAN/WOMAN there lies a deep rooted problem with ones self..
No matter the name of either species/ bit it Joe or josephine/ God still made MAN and woman.........
Now plainly if you can Scripture.......
If not then oh well..........
Though God did punish Adam, as you say Eve gave the correct answer/
Then why were all three punished ??????????
Quote it right then answer the question if you can............ -

No God didn't tell her /but adam must have.. Why didn't she just obey....
We all know this a Woman cannot be stopped for she becomes contentious..
Better question why was she talking to the serpent anyhow, if she would have been a help meet/ she would have been like Adam and busy about his business.... -

she didn't know the serpent was evil....everything that God made in the garden was Good even the animals...I'm surpise that serpent can talk..........hmmmmmmm...since Satan was Cast out before the Garden could it been him talking through the serpent????
you stated if she would have been a help meet/she would have been like adam and busy about his business....
Is it because in Genesis 15 And the LORD God took the man, and put him into the garden of Eden to dress it and to keep it.
I know that he made the women so them man wouldn't be alone.. as a Help meet.... the bible doesn't go into very great detail about it... what was her job....a lot of things are not fully detail in the bible.....
duh!!! Genesis chapter 1 did stated what they suppose to do Sorry about that!!! -

Don't misunderstand the scriptures ma'am, or ANY of you. Be not deceived, Eve was there to hear the command of the LORD. Contrary to belief, she was NOT created after the LORD spoke to Adam, blessing and commanding him:
GENESIS 1-
26And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness: and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth.
27So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them.
28And God blessed them, and God said unto them, Be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the earth, and subdue it: and have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over every living thing that moveth upon the earth.
29And God said, Behold, I have given you every herb bearing seed, which is upon the face of all the earth, and every tree, in the which is the fruit of a tree yielding seed; to you it shall be for meat.
30And to every beast of the earth, and to every fowl of the air, and to every thing that creepeth upon the earth, wherein there is life, I have given every green herb for meat: and it was so.
31And God saw every thing that he had made, and, behold, it was very good. And the evening and the morning were the sixth day.
Here we clearly see that both MAN and WOMAN found their origin in the Sixth day. This was the last thing GOD created. After the sixth day, GOD did NOT create anything else. Genesis 2 was just a MORE DETAILED RECAP of what happened in Genesis 1:
1Thus the heavens and the earth were finished, and all the host of them.
(Mankind is a "host of Earth")
2And on the seventh day God ended his work which he had made; and he rested on the seventh day from all his work which he had made.
3And God blessed the seventh day, and sanctified it: because that in it he had rested from all his work which God created and made.
4These are the generations of the heavens and of the earth when they were created, in the day that the LORD God made the earth and the heavens,
(indicating a recap of what JEHOVAH created within the six days)
5And every plant of the field before it was in the earth, and every herb of the field before it grew: for the LORD God had not caused it to rain upon the earth, and there was not a man to till the ground.
6But there went up a mist from the earth, and watered the whole face of the ground.
7And the LORD God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living soul.
(this happened on the sixth day)
8And the LORD God planted a garden eastward in Eden; and there he put the man whom he had formed.
9And out of the ground made the LORD God to grow every tree that is pleasant to the sight, and good for food; the tree of life also in the midst of the garden, and the tree of knowledge of good and evil.
Skipping down.....
15And the LORD God took the man, and put him into the garden of Eden to dress it and to keep it.
16And the LORD God commanded the man, saying, Of every tree of the garden thou mayest freely eat:
17But of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, thou shalt not eat of it: for in the day that thou eatest thereof thou shalt surely die.
18And the LORD God said, It is not good that the man should be alone; I will make him an help meet for him.
19And out of the ground the LORD God formed every beast of the field, and every fowl of the air; and brought them unto Adam to see what he would call them: and whatsoever Adam called every living creature, that was the name thereof.
20And Adam gave names to all cattle, and to the fowl of the air, and to every beast of the field; but for Adam there was not found an help meet for him.
(All animals were created BEFORE mankind! Did GOD do it again after Adam was there? No, Moses simply stated here what GOD created, and how HE commanded Adam which literally means man, to rule and name all created things.)
21And the LORD God caused a deep sleep to fall upon Adam, and he slept: and he took one of his ribs, and closed up the flesh instead thereof;
22And the rib, which the LORD God had taken from man, made he a woman, and brought her unto the man.
23And Adam said, This is now bone of my bones, and flesh of my flesh: she shall be called Woman, because she was taken out of Man.
(According to Genesis 1:28-29, she was woman was created along with man and blessed already. Does the Bible contradict itself? No, it is merely recapping on past events, but not in the significant order of how it exactly happened. )
This does not say that a woman had no authority in the original plan of GOD. Quite the opposite, this says that she had CO-EQUAL authority with her husband in GOD original plan for she was of the same substance as her husband, just as Christ has co-equal authority with the FATHER and the Holy Spirit, because they are 3 yet 1 and the same substance. Her CURSE was to be under the man's foot of authority, but the curse is LIFTED by the blood of JESUS. Therefore, Apostle Paul rightfully says "there is neither bond nor free, Jew nor Greek, MALE NOR FEMALE, for all are one in Christ". -

oops!!! I do stand corrected......I was still in chapter 2 when he he created Woman from the Rib...my mind didn't go back to
GENESIS 1-
26And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness: and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth.
27So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them. -

Hi Trevor, very interesting commentary. I agree with you but want to touch on the whole "Lilith" theory. Ofcourse, there is the ancient school of thought with regard to Adam's two wives. Meaning, amongst the Talmud tradition, when God spoke in Genesis 1:26-28 he was speaking of a woman named 'lilith' who rebelled, turned into a she-demon and flew away. Have you not heard this story?
Anyway, I found it to be interesting that this story from antiquity coincidentally seeks to negate the 'equality' blessing of Gen. 1:26-28.)
However, Genesis 5:2 calls both the man and woman blessed. Also, God did not curse the man or the woman rather only the 'serpent' was cursed.' (Gen. 3:14). The reason God did not curse the man and woman is because 'God cannot curse what He himself, has blessed.'
Rather, God cursed the 'ground' that Adam wasn't man enough to hold onto. He cursed the woman's 'sorrow' and 'conception' (Gen. 3:15-19). In 'sorrow,' that she thought to bring forth 'conception' then and there instead of for whatever reason Adam was denying her. Now, she would in multiplied sorrow bring forth that which she was impatient about.
So you see, the ground for the man and the impetuous sorrow aspect for the woman were the things God cursed but not the man or woman.
Finally, you are right both the man and the woman knew the law for the Bible says, 'God used to come in the cool of the day and walk with them' i.e. 'they' heard the sound of God walking (Gen. 3:8 pp).
Anyway, again very interesting and very enlightening what you just put forth. -

Praise the Lord
I love when we can search out the word together.....
Genesis 2 verse 9. 16, 17
9 And out of the ground made the LORD God to grow every tree that is pleasant to the sight, and good for food; the tree of life also in the midst of the garden, and the tree of knowledge of good and evil.
16 And the LORD God commanded the man, saying, Of every tree of the garden thou mayest freely eat:
17 But of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil,thou shalt not eat of it: for in the day that thou eatest thereof thou shalt surely die.
Genesis 3 1-3
1 Now the serpent was more subtil than any beast of the field which the LORD God had made. And he said unto the woman, Yea, hath God said, Ye shall not eat of every tree of the garden?
2 And the woman said unto the serpent, We may eat of the fruit of the trees of the garden:
3 But of the fruit of the tree which is in the midst of the garden, God hath said, Ye shall not eat of it, neither shall ye touch it, lest ye die.
That is not what God Said he said not to EAT OF IT. the word touch never came out of God's mouth............ Since EVE wasn't there when God spoke to the Man in Genesis Chapter 2..................... Who told her that???
Then another thing read Genesis 3:3 again there were two trees in the mist of the Garden The Tree of Life and the Tree of Knoweldge of Good and Evil..
Did the woman know which Tree that she wasn't suppose to eat???..Did Adam ever tell her which tree in the mist????. Because she didn’t tell the serpent the name of the Tree...
The serpent knew... because hint around it Gensis 3:5 5For God doth know that in the day ye eat thereof, then your eyes shall be opened, and ye shall be as gods, knowing good and evil
Genesis 3:6
6....And when the woman saw that the tree was good for food, and that it was pleasant to the eyes, and a tree to be desired to make one wise, she took of the fruit thereof, and did eat, and gave also unto her husband with her; and he did eat.
Adam wasn't deceived because he knew what God told him about EATING the fruit..of Knoweldge of Good and Evil….I beleive.....He was there all the long while the serpent and Woman was talking..........why didn't...... he stop the woman from going to the wrong tree and eating of it and then it given to him.(the fruit)........Why didn't he step in the conversation...........???
I always wonder about that?? any thoughts......... -
-
-
Is it possible for you to understand that she lied/ by adding to the command...
well sister once she saw that the fruit was pleasant to the eyes/ what else caould be done??????
Do you ever ask yourself why she would entertain the serpent???????
Why should he have syepped in the conversation????????
We all know what a woman wants she usually gets.......
I wonder too/ why all the fuss when it is totally plain to see that She Eve acted on her own accord...
Why blame Adam for her short- comings?????
god didn't care who did what/ that is why all were punished.......... -
-
-
i wasn't blaming Adam for her Short-comings...
like you said they all got in trouble... -
