why do female preachers disobey these verses'1cor.14:34-35'?

1cor.14:34-35 Let your women keep silence in the churches: for it is not permitted unto them to speak; but they are commanded to be under obedience as also saith the law.

35 And if they will learn any thing, let them ask their husbands at home: for it is a shame for women to speak in the church.

    Women preachers are called of God to preach.

    As you have been told over and over again that these verses have Nothing to do with women preaching.

    It has to do with the fact that women who were not preachers sitting on opposite sides of the temple listening to the speaker.

    The men on the other side of the curtain that separated them from the women. In those days the men did not sit with their wives.

    When the wives want to talk to their husbands they would holler out to them and disrupt the service.

    So it was said that women keep silent while the speaking was teaching.

    That speaker could be a woman or a man.

    So your idea of women not being allowed to preach is false and any Pastor can vouch for this who is actually a Preacher.

    don't get caught up on these scriptures they do not mean anything else.

    Why do YOU not get it? The Bible is FULL of obsolete references that have had no meaning for centuries.

    Besides which, I'd rather see extremists like yourself completely upset over something that is yet another lost cause.

    The REAL shame is that over entirely too many weeks, you have been spamming this section. I've stopped reporting you for ranting but that doesn't mean someone else wouldn't take up the cause. Do you KNOW how much of an annoyance you are?

    I beg of you on bended knee with my eyes crying great droplets of blood, STOP ASKING THIS DOPEY QUESTION. It has been asked at least 5.280 times and we are all sick of it. Actually it says that people who repeatedly ask this question should keep silent in the churches, on the internet and everywhere else.

    Those verses have nothing to do with preaching. You speak from a lack of knowledge about Jewish society in that era.

    Women had always been separated from the men in synagogue. It was (and is) the man's duty to be the spiritual head of the house, and his duty was to tend to Scriptural studies and education so that he could go home and in turn teach his family. But in Christ the Scriptures are opened to women, too. But Paul warns those women who now study with their husbands not to interfer with or disrupt synagogue/church studies by asking their husbands "what does the rabbi/pastor mean by that? I don't understand. etc. blah blah blah", but to hold their questions for their husband after they get home. Nothing wrong with that. And that has nothing to do with women preaching.

    God's laws are perfect, so if you have a problem with it, you are the one in error.

  • Why do fathers ignore the verses in leviticus that say you can stone a disobedient child to death? Certain verses are applicable for certain time periods, and not for others. In a time where women were treated as a lesser, uneducated beings, of course there would be verses about this.

    Php 4:3 -

    And I intreat thee also, true yokefellow, help those (( WOMEN )) which (( LABOURED WITH ME )) in the (( GOSPEL )), with Clement also, and with other my fellowlabourers, whose names are in the book of life.

    ( In this letter he said WOMEN was labourers with him in the GOSPEL. )

    Ac 18:26 -

    And he began to speak boldly in the synagogue: whom when Aquila and (( PRISCALLA )) had heard, (( THEY )) took him unto (( THEM )), and (( EXPOUNDED )) unto him (( THE WAY OF GOD MORE PERFECTLY )).

    ( There is another who was with the same PAUL and there is even more )

    Here is the question:

    If what Paul wrote concerning women not to Teach / Preach is to be taken LITERALLY; How can he be against it in one letter and for it in another and in some cases, the same letter ? ( Example: 1Co.14:34 & 1Co.16:19 )

    Could it be that you do not understand the MYSTERIES by in which he speaks / I think that's the problem.

    You keep asking this.

    The instructions from Paul would have meaning _only_ if they were in the Church at Corinth.

    It is not part of the Gospel taught by Jesus Christ, so get over it, already.

    Paul was talking about a certain group of women disturbing a certain service. NOT ALL WOMEN. How many times are people going to ask this question.
