This week I present the Scriptural basis for women operating in a whole and complete God-ordained role alongside the men in the Christian Church.
For two long, by ignoring a multitude of examples throughout both the Old and New Testaments of women called by God into various and often very senior roles, and by applying enormous weight to just two New Testament passages whilst conveniently totally ignoring the contexts of those same two verses, many have implanted and/or have sustained the idea that, to a greater or lesser extent, women are to remain silent in the church and never be granted recognition as ministers of God's Word in their own right.
My prayer is that this lesson will go a long way towards bringing clarification and understanding to each viewer of what these two verses actually mean, alongside examples of how God has often called, equipped and placed many women in senior roles in both Israel and the Christian church in it's infancy as recorded in the Holy Bible (and we look at only a handful of Scriptural examples - there are many more) and why the patriarchal and misogynistic viewpoint that women must never be allowed to discharge their ministries in the church is false and is built upon the shakiest of foundations of ignorance and tradition which are not in any way in accord with Gods Word and will.
