An Episcopal Church quarrel over the ordination of women, the Book of Common Prayer, who gets the property in separation and the division of memorial gifts.

But here's the primary reason I'm uncomfortable with this being framed as an equal rights issue: Over half of the complementarians in my church are women.

A long and engaged effort at Communion - wide consultation over the issue of women in the episcopacy gave rise to a report, endorsed by the Communion's archbishops, to maintain communion as far as possible even while various churches carried on with different practices.

In the case of the current debate among evangelicals over woman's place in the church and marriage, however, the challenge of conflicting viewpoints has brought what otherwise might have remained implicit methods of interpretation to lighIn the case of the current debate among evangelicals over woman's place in the church and marriage, however, the challenge of conflicting viewpoints has brought what otherwise might have remained implicit methods of interpretation to lighin the church and marriage, however, the challenge of conflicting viewpoints has brought what otherwise might have remained implicit methods of interpretation to light.

The current controversy over women's place in worship and marriage can be healthy for the evangelical church, for only as a position is argued passionately and under pressure are its possibilities fully explored.

For example, the Orthodox Church has always had woman preachers and evangelists; no problem with women preaching, and I have preached in the pulpit of Orthodox churches all over the country.

I know many complementarians who, although they believe men should hold authority over women in the home, church, and society, make an exception for the marriage bed, acknowledging the Apostle Paul's teachings on mutuality in this regard (1 Corinthians 7:1 - 5).

I do not permit a woman to teach or to assume authority over a man; she must be quiet» and then they silence women in the church... in a well - meaning way.

In Genesis 3, the woman usurped authority over her husband and took the lead in the Fall, and is now forbidden to do so in the local church by teaching Scriptures to meIn Genesis 3, the woman usurped authority over her husband and took the lead in the Fall, and is now forbidden to do so in the local church by teaching Scriptures to mein the Fall, and is now forbidden to do so in the local church by teaching Scriptures to mein the local church by teaching Scriptures to men.

I'm thinking of going there or to a women friendly episcopal church in the next town over (our local episcopal church is pretty conservative).

Although there may be some variation on the specifics, broadly speaking, complementarians believe that women are biblically - bound to submit to male leadership in the home and in church life, which means that husbands are ultimately responsible for decision - making on behalf of their families and that women should refrain from assuming leadership positions over men in a church setting.

It is precisely because they knew how to silence themselves before God that women like Teresa of Avila, Julian of Norwich, and Catherine of Siena were able to have so much influence over the Church in times when women had little voice.

Regarding women in the church, Hannah said she feels strongly that based on 1 Corinthians 11, they should not speak or have authority over men.

But one theme emerged that I hadn't looked for, over and over: Women, in the middle of their lives, who felt invisible and ignored by the church, the same way they feel invisible or ignored in our culture.

Now that so much data is available to make the unexplained less frightening... and that the historical record has shown that most church doctrine was made up and that even the Jesus birth story / son of god born of a woman etc etc has been recycled in numerous different religions for over 4000 years... preaching Faith in a fairy tale is a losing proposition.

God is stirring the waters in my soul, the song I'm hearing whisper across the water is breathing your name somehow, and I feel like taking some time to brood over God's women in the world, in the church, to pray, to wait, to cover us all.

Sometimes egalitarians, in their enthusiasm for advancing the equality and dignity of women in the Church, gloss over such passages or try to explain them away.

I tend to think that it's not women entering leadership roles that has caused the decline of the church but rather tradition and doctrine over ruling the search truth in the scriptures.

So in this understanding, I share in it's biblical understanding it's wise to have the Head the man as the authority over the members of the Church, instead of a woman preaching to a gathering of both men and women.

Yes, she would step up to the plate if no men were available but if a Godly man was standing in the sanctuary and he gave over leadership of the church to a woman???? No doubt about it, we both do not believe that God intended for women to be preachers, or priestesses, or leaders in the church except for tending to the women and the children.

I have looked back over several posts you have made, and the low class, degrading place you think women hold in the church — just does not exist.

As we covered in a previous article, these instructions fall smack in the middle of words to men and women about false teaching and angry disputing over ways the surrounding culture is creeping into the Ephesian church.

I have christian friends from other churchs and there women do these things and they do it because that is how they interpret the word.Its optional and not inforced by the church or by there husbands.They do it as an act of worship to the Lord.The point is how you interpret the word that was what i was getting at as we know the word is the inspired word of God to understand it we need the inspiration of the holy spirit otherwise the word is dead and brings no life.In the case of mother etta she was called to preach and God used her as an evengelist in her day her ministry grew she witnessed to thousands she healed the sick and saved the lost you can argue over a point but the proof is there that God uses women just as he uses men in ministry today.

There are more women over the last forty years (since second wave feminism) involved in public church ministry than in the history of the church.

agree it seems in our church in one month we have three women preaching, every month the pastors wife made a comment that some are saying the women are taking over then she laughed if the men cant then we will do it,

If there was a problem with women usurping authority over men in the church in Ephesus, Paul would have addressed it.
