Can a Christian Sister do a comment in the fromework of the meeting in the Congregation?
"As in all the congregations of the holy ones, 34 let the women keep silent in the congregations, for it is not permitted for them to speak. Rather, let them be in subjection, as the Law also says" (1 Corinthians 14:33,34).
"Let a woman learn in silence with full submissiveness. 12 I do not permit a woman to teach or to exercise authority over a man, but she is to remain silent" (1 Timothy 2:11,12).
Also the Apostle Paul wrote: "Nevertheless, in a congregation I would rather speak five words with my mind, that I might also instruct others, than ten thousand words in a tongue" (1 Corinthians 14:19).
If with "five words" he could teach the Congregation, a Sister can teach with a comment of "five words", in the congregation...

Answer to TERRY: As I understand you invite me to understand the contrary of what it is writen in the Bible, twice times... That is, the Sisters must keep silent in the congregation... You are explaining me the contrary of what it is written in the Bible without biblical verse...
Answer 2 to TERRY: it seems that you are not understanding my question: I don't ask you if they can preach outside the framework of the worship in congregation. Yes they can. But inside the framework of the worship in the congregation... The Apostle Paul wrote under inspiration: NOT AT ALL... They must keep silent. Give me the biblical verse of what you are teaching me... The Bible and Only the Bible... You are teaching me exactly the contrary of what it is written in the Bible twice times... Open your eyes of understanding...
Answer to FIREBALL: The Bible is a Weapon against the human lie: "For the weapons of our warfare are not fleshly, but powerful by God for overturning strongly entrenched things. 5 For we are overturning reasonings and every lofty thing raised up against the knowledge of God, and we are bringing every thought into captivity to make it obedient to the Christ; 6 and we are prepared to inflict punishment for every disobedience, as soon as your own obedience is complete" (2 Corinthians 10:4-6).
Answer to OTTO: The comment is a teaching according the Apostle Paul: "Nevertheless, in a congregation I would rather speak five words with my mind, that I might also instruct others, than ten thousand words in a tongue" (1 Corinthians 14:19). With 5 words, the apostle wrote that he could teach... A comment inside the congregation is a teaching... It is forbidden by Jehovah and Jesus Christ, and written in the Bible... And at the end of your answer you wrote "BIBLE"... Where is the biblical verse?

Women are called by God as often as men to spread the word. There are thousands of female Christian ministers around the world.

Woman cannot be preachers in the congregation, that is the way God has arranged it, so no one should change it........the scripture you quote does NOT mean they are to be silent in the congregation as they can contribute a lot within the congregation but when it comes to taking the lead in preaching and teaching from the platform then no it is not for sisters !
EDIT....
NO......they are not to preach, that does not mean they have to keep silent throughout the whole meeting or sermon !
