aggreance. i to beleive to bible is God breathed. i havent
been to church in a couple of years and can't seem to find
a bible base church. my desire is to go,but i struggle with
this every sunday in why i can't seem to find one and sometimes i think it may be me. i was attending with a friend,but the have women preachers and i feel this is contrary to the Word of God. any godly advice would be greatly appreciated. i would also like to ask about people
who sit under women and pastors who allow this sort of practice would you join a church of this nature.  

Answer
Hi Lisa,

Thank you for thsi question.

1 Timothy 2:11-12
11 Let the woman learn in silence with all subjection. 12 But I suffer not a woman to teach, nor to usurp authority over the man, but to be in silence.
The King James Version, (Cambridge: Cambridge) 1769.

It is impossible for a church to truely be a Bible believing church and allow women to pastor or teach men.  If you need to find a Bible believing church in your area, e-mail me at ebc@cleaninter.net, tell me where you live, and I will try to find a church for you.

In Christ
Pastor Don
