Church Who Are Considering Woman Pastor | John MacArthur |

Oh that we would have Biblical male leadership in our homes and in our churches today in 2023 what a difference it would make for the gospel!

The truth is hard for these woke women so called pastors

[ricksaunders]

Where you have a godly women
you have a strong man.
Women are to lead the household
Proverbs 31 women care for the house
John is right

[helendeacon]

Amen! Will Christian men and women obey the Scripture or distort it to their own and others' harm? There are those who take God's Word as authoritative and their are empty professors. This is a damaging distraction which grieves the Holy Spirit. Declension and decline everywhere this takes hold. Why is having charge of a lectern so important? Strong male leadership home and church is what God blesses. Women have opportunities both to nurture and teach, unique gifts. Why do we now see clerical collars worn almost exclusively by females?

There were only 2 reasons that Paul gave why a woman should not usurp authority over a man and why a woman should not teach a man about the words of God, 1) Adam was first created, then a woman to be a helper of a man and to take away the loneliness of a man..
I believe this is about authority..
And 2) It was Eve who was deceive by the serpent not Adam..
I believe this is why a woman should not teach a man the words of God, for why should a woman teach a man the words of God when she was the one who was deceived by the serpent and sinned.. and she was the one who tempted the man to sin..

We ought to study this topic better... : DOES THE BIBLE ALLOW WOMEN TO BE PASTORS?
Many Christians think that the Bible does not allow women to be pastors. For many people, the key verse is 1 Timothy 2:12: “I do not permit a woman to teach or to exercise authority over a man; rather, she is to remain quiet” (ESV throughout). Let’s start by looking at this verse in more detail.

If we look at only this one verse, we might see that it would forbid much more than being a pastor:

“A woman cannot teach a man.” This means that women cannot be doctors, professors, or high-school teachers. The verse does not say that it is restricted to the church.
“A woman cannot have authority over a man.” This means that a woman cannot be elected to political office, or to be a manager in a store that has male employees, or to be a principal of a school that has male teachers. The verse makes no exceptions.
“Women are to remain quiet.” They cannot be entertainers, news reporters or have any role in mass media.
However, almost no one understands the verse in this way. Conservative Bible scholars, theologians and church leaders all say that the verse should not be understood in such a literal way. We need to understand why. This will involve a lesson about how we should read and apply the Bible.

Two lines of reasoning tell us that the verse does not prohibit women from all forms of teaching, authority, or speaking. The first is an examination of the context of the verse, and the situation in which it was written. The second is to see that God sometimes inspired women to speak, teach, and have authority over men.

about what people were teaching in Ephesus (1:3-4), and he urged that believers should pray for everyone, specifically the civil authorities (2:1-2). Paul then gives instructions about how the men should pray: “I desire then that in every place the men should pray, lifting holy hands without anger or quarreling” (2:8). What what he said, but we do not take it literally. It was appropriate in his culture, but it is not necessary in ours.

Similarly, in the next verse, Paul says that “women should adorn themselves in respectable apparel, with modesty and self-control, not with probably violate what Paul writes.

Then Paul says that women should learn quietly, not teaching the men (2:11-12). But as we have just seen, we do not always take what Paul wrote literally. Therefore, when we come to verse 12, we have to choose: do we take it literally, or of this. If Adam was not deceived, then he sinned deliberately, out of rebellion rather than ignorance. It is difficult to argue that men should be in charge because the first man was a deliberate rebel. It seems that some people are trying to explain verse 12 by Ephesus, and we presume that Paul’s instructions made sense to people in that historical context, but readers today are puzzled because we are missing part of the picture.

Paul’s policy is clear: he did not allow women to teach in the first-century church in Ephesus. However, it is question is to see how God has used women in the past, and we will see that God has not required women to be silent, even in a religious setting, and that he has sometimes allowed – even appointed – women to have authority over men.

An illustration of that is authority, too – in verses 6-9 she gave the Israelite general an authoritative message from God. Chapter 5 is her victory song; her words have become part of the Bible, and men have been learning from Deborah ever since (see Judges 5:7 for evidence that the song was written by not permit a woman to have authority over a man, was he giving a permanent and timeless principle from God? Apparently not, for it seems that God does not have that policy. Paul’s policy may have been appropriate for rule – it just says that God worked through her. He is willing to put women in positions of authority.

Huldah is another example of a woman God used. In the time of King Josiah, as workers were cleaning the Temple, they found a scroll. “Hilkiah the to do his work. But he was apparently willing for a woman to serve in this way, and he was happy for this woman’s words to be in Scripture, and for this example to be there for our instruction. So again we see that God does not have a permanent policy against women speaking authoritative words to men.

? We do not have the complete picture here.

In chapter 14, Paul is dealing with the somewhat chaotic Corinthian church services, and women are not the only people he tells to be silent (vv. 26-33). People were interrupting each other, and more than one person was trying to talk at a time. Paul’s instructions here would be needed if (this is the most likely situation) women were being unruly and asking their husbands questions during the church service. So Paul tells them to stop talking, and ask their questions later.

Paul does not say to what (or whom) they should be submissive. The Law of Moses does not tell women to be submissive to their husbands (although that was probably assumed in their patriarchal society). However, the Law does say that people are to be submissive to the word of God. The word of God was being preached in Corinth, but the women were talking and not being submissive. (The Greek word for “speak” in these verses does not refer to public speaking in particular – it is the general word for talk, and it is in the present tense, which often denotes an ongoing activity.)

In chapter 11, Paul allowed women to pray and prophesy, presumably at a public meeting, but in chapter 14 he tells women to stop talking. Was Paul contradicting himself in the same letter? No matter what kind of literature we are reading, we normally want to read in such a way that the author is not contradicting himself. If there are other ways to understand what the person wrote, then we should prefer an interpretation that is not contradictory.

If this case, interpreters have a choice: either chapter 11 is about a limited situation, or chapter 14:33-35 is about a limited situation, or both passages are limited. Some interpreters choose the first, saying that the first part of chapter 11 is not about church, even though the last part of chapter 11 is.

We believe that the passage in chapter 14 is limited, because (at the minimum) it is applicable only to women who have husbands who believe in Jesus. Almost no one takes this passage literally – no one expects women to be silent during all parts of the worship service. Those who allow women to sing (for example) but not speak are allowing their own traditions to filter what Paul has written. We are being submissive to Scripture when we understand Paul to be writing about a limited situation – that of noisy, chaotic meetings – and he did not intend to make universal prohibitions on what women can do in church. If the Spirit leads a woman to prophesy, then she may do so, even if it’s in church.

Conclusion
Two passages in the New Testament have traditionally been used to say that women cannot speak in the church or have authority over men, and therefore cannot be pastors. But this interpretation contradicts other scriptures that show that God sometimes places women in positions of authority over men, and gives them authoritative words. Some modern scholars try to maintain the traditional interpretation by suggesting a distinction between what women can do in church and what women can do outside of church, but this leads to the improbable idea that the church cannot include all of God’s gifts.

I don’t disagree…but aren’t some books of the Bible composed by unknown authors? Some books written by suspected authors but not verifiable? I respect the Truth and I don’t disagree with this message.

[stephm]

Women were not educated. Books not written by women is not that profound. God is sovereign. Women pastors is not rebellion. It's judgment on men. It's called the FALL OF ADAM. I don't think this guy has encouraged one woman in his life.

In the first place, I wonder what Macarthur thinks the pastor is. The pastor is a kind of an apostle or like an author of the Bible?
It seems to me that he brought wrong examples.
