You don't need scriptural reference; that's irrelevant. As long as you can talk you can preach, gender notwithstanding. A penis is not required for preaching; a brain is: and women's brains are as good as men's.

Deborah was a prophet and judge over Israel.

the scriptures that MEN use to demean women in the church are used incorrectly.. when paul said that women in the church should keep silent.. he did not mean preaching.

if you ever visit an orthodox synogogue, you will understand. ..the men pray separately from the women.on a different side of the room....both pray..the men have the main responsibility of prayer...the women have to take care of the children who make noise. There is a constant chatter of women trying to keep the kids quiet.. Also, they get more distracted due to "child care duty," and begin to chat at moments when the men pray.... this can be disruptive to the men, who are trying to concentrate..

this is what Paul was referring to...he was not denying women the right to share the good news...

so the point is this.... the bible does NOT say that women CANNOT preach, which means they should be allowed to

do you pick to be a preacher? it really is an noticeably not person-friendly ingredient as i have began to comprehend attempting to respond to some the quesions right here. you should understand the Bible interior out and continually be careful to no longer lead human beings into heresy through some thing that are only a hypothesis of yours. that is a large duty having in recommendations that instructors, because the Bible says, will be judged extra strictly. i'm sorry i am going to't grant you with any scriptural reference although. perhaps somebody else will.

There is no where in the Bible that women have taught or are asked to preach, teach, be church leaders or whatsoever.This is as a result of modern twist of civilisation and socalled equality, women cannot stand on a platform, pulpit etc and teach or talk to men, it is not done.It is oh so wrong!

Try Acts 21: 9.
Plus 'There is neither male nor female...'
Look, too, at the evidence in the Free Churches, Salvation Army, etc over many generations. And, now, in the Anglican Church.
Would God bless so abundantly that which was against His will?

Only in 1 Cor. Paul say that he does not allow a woman to "teach" (be the teacher/pastor) because it was woman who first sinned and then gave to man. This does not mean that a woman can not preach, or teach-but that she should not be pastor of a church. People interpret that differently depending on their particular theological view.

There isnt any solid rules in the bible about who can preach so as you preach the word of God. In fact one of the judges in the old testiments was a woman.

yeah i never understood why so many women who want to be pastors or whatnot have always been rejected i guess it has to do with how society views women as i haven't seen anywhere in scriptures where it says that women can't be preachers or pastors

Galatians 3:28

28There is neither Jew nor Greek, slave nor free, male nor female, for you are all one in Christ Jesus.

and Galatians 4 goes on to explain how in Christ we are all heirs
of God and receive the rights as if we were God's sons.

This is pretty clear about us all having the same rights and responsibilities in God's eyes.
