Women are not called to be senior pastors. If they are not the spiritual heads in the family, how can they be in the church?
I don't care how many neg votes this gets, but it is amazing the one thing God does not ordain women to do, they go out and do it.
Sorry ladies, but women can be teachers, healers, intercessors, prophets, apostles, evangelists, administrators and be leaders in such, but not the spiritual leaders of congregations.

Baptism is H2O touching the exterior cells on your body. It holds meaning because it is your public truth to human beings (and beforehand God) that you're waiting to positioned away your previous existence and save on with Him. The submergence is a symbolic act that represents the death of the former self and the introduction of the hot. finally it is your non secular courting with Jesus that counts. the guy who baptizes you isn't transmitting some holy authority to you or some thing. do not ignore that John the Baptist baptized Jesus. obviously John did not have some particular status to attempt this. Jesus' Baptism replaced into an representation to the human beings round them (the dove and the mild were thoughts besides as symbols of the Holy Spirit.). I truly doubt Jesus would have wanted John to Baptize him if no one replaced into round.

sure, why not? If baptism is the outward profession of faith, does it mean your profession is less because a woman helped you do it? I believe that God looks at the heart...the inside. If you went thru a baptism because you felt it was the right thing to do and you had accepted Christ as your personal savior, then it counts. On the contrary...if you went thru a baptism and didn't believe in Christ but Billy Graham did it, it wouldn't mean anything.

Yes, it would be valid. Most are baptized as infants, and for those who are. We need to be re baptized as young adults or adults. When you are aware of the meaning and significance of what the baptism is all about. God bless****

If you were baptized by Marlyin Manson... It then would've been a trans gender baptism. Then, you'd have to see if Satan really saw that as an acceptable form of dedication to his ways of life. So yes, I do think gender clarification does matter.

(Eph 4:11) And he gave some, apostles; and some, prophets; and some, evangelists; and some, pastors and teachers;

The Greek Language agrees in Person, Number and Gender!

This verse, the PASTORS, is in the MALE VOICE!

BIBLICALLY SPEAKING, there is No Such Thing as a Female Pastor!

Although THERE Are Many females THAT GO AND GET ORDAINED and yet THEY ARE NOT RECOGNIZED BY GOD!

Do you need an exapmple of A Wrong Female Pastor?

(Revelation 2:20-to-23) Notwithstanding I have a few things against thee, because thou sufferest that woman Jezebel, which calleth herself a prophetess, to teach and to seduce my servants to commit fornication, and to eat things sacrificed unto idols.

(Rev 2:21) And I gave her space to repent of her fornication; and she repented not.

(Rev 2:22) Behold, I will cast her into a bed, and them that commit adultery with her into great tribulation, except they repent of their deeds.

(Rev 2:23) And I will kill her children with death; and all the churches shall know that I am he which searcheth the reins and hearts: and I will give unto every one of you according to your works.

By the way, were ANY of the Apostles = WOMEN?

Thanks,RR

Of course. Anybody with the correct intention can baptize validly.

Yes, assuming all other things are equal (proper form, proper matter, proper intention).

Of course. It's the intent that counts, not who does it.

Of course. Women are as holy as men are, if their hearts are in it.
