Christian Colleges are Grooming Women to Be Preachers

Christian Colleges are Grooming Women to Be Preachers

Written By Ken and Lori We graduated from Westmont College in 1980. I (Lori) wasn’t strong in biblical knowledge so I didn’t know if what I was being taught was biblically accurate or not. I wasn’t wise and discerning back then like most college students. I asked my husband (Ken) one morning if Westmont was falling away from biblical truth when we went there, and he said it was. The crack in the conservative view of the scriptures had already…

Was Priscilla a Leader in a Church?

Was Priscilla a Leader in a Church?

Priscilla has been used by feminists for many years to argue that women can be leaders and preachers in the churches. Here is what the Bible has to say about her. “Greet Priscilla and Aquila my helpers in Christ Jesus” (Romans 16:3). “The churches of Asia salute you. Aquila and Priscilla salute you much in the Lord, with the church that is in their house” (1 Corinthians 16:19). “And found a certain Jew named Aquila, born in Pontus, lately come…

Why Women Can’t Preach

Why Women Can’t Preach

In 1 Timothy 2:11-15, we are given two reasons why women are commanded to not teach nor be in authority over men in the churches. The first reason is that Adam was created first. He was in authority over Eve. Eve was created to be his help meet. Men are to be in authority over women. I know this is highly offensive to many, but I don’t care. None of God’s order or ways are offensive to me. I understand…

Did Elisabeth Elliot Pave the Way For Female Preachers?

Did Elisabeth Elliot Pave the Way For Female Preachers?

A few weeks ago, I was watching Elisabeth Elliot teach a group of people on some topic that I don’t remember. I think it was about being a godly woman. In the class, I noticed there were men and women. When her talk was done, she said her next teaching will be to men on how to be real men. It reminded me of her speaking to men and women in our chapel service at Westmont College many years ago….

She Felt Called to Preach to Men

She Felt Called to Preach to Men

On a video put together by John Henry called “Voddie Baucham Provides Answers about Women Pastors, Teachers, and Elders in the Church,” John goes back and forth between an interview with Joyce Meyer and a sermon being preached by Voddie Baucham to show the fallacy that women make to justify preaching. (I summarized the video.) A woman who works for Joyce asked her: “When you began your ministry in 1976, what God expected of women was very different from what…

Women’s Ministries as Pestilence

Women’s Ministries as Pestilence

Written By Doug Wilson When it comes to sexual role relationships in the church today, we are so far gone that if we all got back to the status of “severely compromised,” more than a few people would call it a great reformation. One of our issues is the result of our gradual dismissal of biblically-assigned roles for men and women. We have done the same with creational roles, along with traditional roles, saying that they are all simply “outdated…

Female Rebellion Within the Church

Female Rebellion Within the Church

So, women are leaving the churches because men aren’t leading in “Christ-like ways.” How are they not leading in Christ-like ways? They believe in male leadership in the home and the church, and wives are to submit to their husbands, plus women aren’t allowed to teach in the churches or have authority over men but to be in silence. This angers the women, so they leave. “‘I cannot count the number of women who have reached out to me over…

Women are Great at Twisting Scripture

Women are Great at Twisting Scripture

Not one woman was called to be Jesus’ disciple. Not one woman wrote a book in the Bible. Not one woman is called to be an elder or deacon since they are to be “the husband of one wife.” All throughout Acts, it was men who preached. Not one woman in the entire Bible preached. Women are to “learn in silence with all subjection” in the church gatherings. If they have a question, they are to ask their husbands at…

Does Female Rebellion Weaken Men?

Does Female Rebellion Weaken Men?

Most of you heard about the fiasco between John MacArthur and Beth Moore. He told her to “Go home” which is biblical and I applauded him for doing so. However, many Christians were outraged over it. This past Sunday, he preached a sermon in response called Does the Bible Permit a Woman to Preach? I encourage you ALL to listen to it. It is fantastic! Here are a few of my favorite remarks of his: Women are collectively moving to…

“Preach the Word”…Wait, Women are Called to Preach?

“Preach the Word”…Wait, Women are Called to Preach?

There’s a video out by John Bevere, Lisa Bevere’s husband, where he is defending women preachers (his wife is a preacher) and he uses this verse: “Preach the word; be instant in season, out of season; reprove, rebuke, exhort with all longsuffering and doctrine” (2 Timothy 4:2). What do the commentaries of old have to say about preaching the Word back in the days when everyone knew that women weren’t called to preach? Is this a command for women, too?…
