Question
Does the Bible support Women Evangelist and where is it found?

Answer
Women in the Work of the Lord -

Yes, the Scriptures do declare 1 Tim.2:11-14 below.  

The Scriptures ALSO declare that in Christ Jesus there is neither male nor female, we are ALL ONE (Gal.3:28 below); that in Jesus we are FREE indeed (Jn.8:36, Gal.5:1 below), that we are to do our Vocation according to God’s own purpose (Eph.4:1, 2 Tim.1:9, Phil.2:13, Rom.8:28 below).  

The Scriptures declare women in the work of the church (Acts.21:8-9 below).

I believe we are ALL (male and female) called to the vocation God has planned for each member of His living body, according to His purpose and His good pleasure (Eph.4:1, 2 Tim.1:9, Phil.2:13, Rom.8:24 below).


1 Tim.2:11    Let the woman learn in silence with all subjection (1 Cor.14:34-35 below).

1 Tim.2:12    But I suffer not a woman to teach, nor to usurp authority over the man, but to be in silence.

1 Tim.2:13    For Adam was first formed, then Eve.

1 Tim.2:14    And Adam was not deceived, but the woman being deceived was in the transgression.


Gal.3:28     There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither bond nor free, THERE IS NEITHER MALE NOR FEMALE: for YE ARE ALL ONE in Christ Jesus.

Jn.8:36     If the Son therefore shall make you free, YE SHALL BE FREE INDEED (Gal.5:1 below).

Gal.5:1    Stand fast therefore in the liberty wherewith Christ hath made us free (Jn.8:36 above), and be not entangled again with the yoke of bondage.

Eph.4:1   I THEREFORE, the prisoner of the Lord, beseech you that ye walk worthy of the VOCATION wherewith ye are called (2 Tim.1:9 below),  

2 Tim.1:9   Who hath saved us, and called us with an holy calling (Eph.4:1 above), not according to our works, but ACCORDING TO HIS OWN PURPOSE (Phil.2:13, Rom.8:28 below) and grace, which was given us in Christ Jesus before the world began (Jn.17:5),

Phil.2:13   For it is God which worketh in you both TO WILL AND TO DO of his good pleasure (Heb.13:21).

Rom.8:28    And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to [his] purpose (2 Tim.1:9, Phil.2:13 above).

Acts 21:8 And the next [day] we that were of Paul's company departed, and came unto Caesarea: and we entered into the house of Philip the evangelist, which was [one] of the seven; and abode with him.

Acts 21:9 And the same man had four daughters, virgins, which did prophesy.
