Critical thinking , Patriot, Constitutionalist . Jesus! The Way, The Truth, The Life! We all seek Truth let’s find it because the “World hates and hides it!
@JDShuttlesworth Yes, and it’s obviously why this man disagrees with Paul because half the book of Romans is written on what is called deprived ,abomination and wicked in the sight of the Lord. We are living in the end days in a world which calls that which is good bad and that whichis bad good.
@JDShuttlesworth You are right, another fine example of cultural Marxism at work playing on empathy and kindness. Our country is slowly becoming a country run by women who play right into this trap. pray for men with backbone to run our Congress, please. This is not what the founding fathers want
@professornez@poconomtngirl When you look at people like votes it’ll all make sense. The Democrats know illegals will vote them in which is why they committed this Treasonous act of opening up the border and creating Sanctuary Cities.
NO WOMEN PASTORS?
THE BIBLICAL CASE FOR WOMEN PASTORS
1. GOD PLACED A WOMAN IN APOSTOLIC MINISTRY—AN OFFICE SCRIPTURE RANKS FIRST IN THE CHURCH.
Romans 16:7 (KJV)
“Salute Andronicus and Junia, my kinsmen, and my fellowprisoners, who are of note among the apostles, who also were in Christ before me.”
1 Corinthians 12:28 (KJV)
“And God hath set some in the church, first apostles, secondarily prophets, thirdly teachers…”
Ephesians 4:11 (KJV)
“And he gave some, apostles; and some, prophets; and some, evangelists; and some, pastors and teachers.”
The argument is devastatingly simple:
If a woman can occupy apostolic ministry, and God Himself places apostles first in the Church, you cannot construct a biblical rule saying that the same woman is inherently disqualified from pastoral ministry simply because she is a woman.
The burden is on the prohibitionist to explain how a woman may occupy apostolic ministry but is constitutionally incapable of pastoral ministry.

2. THE NEW TESTAMENT SHOWS A WOMAN TEACHING DOCTRINE TO A MALE MINISTER.
Acts 18:26 (KJV)
“Whom when Aquila and Priscilla had heard, they took him unto them, and expounded unto him the way of God more perfectly.”
And this wasn’t an ignorant man.
Apollos was:
Acts 18:24 (KJV)
“An eloquent man, and mighty in the scriptures.”
Yet Priscilla participated in correcting his doctrine.
Therefore the sweeping proposition—
“A woman can never teach a man spiritual truth”
—is contradicted by the inspired historical record itself.

3. PRISCILLA WASN’T MERELY A WOMAN WHO TAUGHT ONCE—A CHURCH OPERATED IN HER HOUSE.
Romans 16:3–5 (KJV)
“Greet Priscilla and Aquila my helpers in Christ Jesus… Likewise greet the church that is in their house.”
Paul calls her his helper in Christ Jesus.
A church meets in their house.
She participates in doctrinal instruction.
This is unmistakably substantial New Testament ministry.

4. PAUL FORMALLY IDENTIFIES PHOEBE AS A MINISTER OF A SPECIFIC LOCAL CHURCH.
Romans 16:1 (KJV)
“I commend unto you Phebe our sister, which is a servant of the church which is at Cenchrea.”
The word is diakonos.
Paul uses the same word of himself:
Colossians 1:25 (KJV)
“Whereof I am made a minister…”
You cannot translate diakonos as meaningful ministry language when applied to Paul and then automatically drain it of ministerial significance when applied to Phoebe.
She is specifically identified with “the church which is at Cenchrea.”
⸻
5. WOMEN SPOKE SUPERNATURALLY TO THE ASSEMBLED CHURCH WITH GOD’S APPROVAL.
1 Corinthians 11:5 (KJV)
“But every woman that prayeth or prophesieth…”
What does prophecy do?
1 Corinthians 14:3 (KJV)
“But he that prophesieth speaketh unto men to edification, and exhortation, and comfort.”
Those are pastoral activities.
Paul doesn’t tell women:
“You cannot prophesy.”
He regulates how they do it.
Therefore any interpretation of Paul’s later instruction about women remaining silent must harmonize with Paul’s explicit acknowledgment that women prayed and prophesied in the Church.
⸻
6. THE HOLY GHOST HIMSELF EMPOWERS WOMEN TO SPEAK FOR GOD.
Acts 2:17–18 (KJV)
“Your sons and your daughters shall prophesy… And on my servants and on my handmaidens I will pour out in those days of my Spirit; and they shall prophesy.”
This isn’t a concession to twenty-first-century culture.
This is Pentecost.
The distinguishing feature of the last-days outpouring is that God’s Spirit rests upon sons and daughters, servants and handmaidens, and they speak under divine empowerment.
⸻
7. PAUL EXPLICITLY CALLS WOMEN HIS FELLOW LABOURERS IN GOSPEL MINISTRY.
Philippians 4:3 (KJV)
“Help those women which laboured with me in the gospel, with Clement also, and with other my fellowlabourers…”
Paul doesn’t describe them merely as women who attended his meetings.
They:
“LABOURED WITH ME IN THE GOSPEL.”
The monopoly that the Big Four meat processing companies (Cargill, JBS, Tyson and National Beef) have on the market is a HUGE reason why beef prices are so high.
Breaking up this monopoly is one of the most effective ways we can lower beef prices and this decision will help not only ranchers, but Americans in the long term.
Positive news out of the admin, especially after last week’s decision to import 300,000 metric tons of foreign beef.
