I sincerely hope that you rethink your actions at some point. Teaching people would make more sense than to get rid of
them when they don't agree with you. Women teach publicly every time they write an article, or publish a newsletter and you never
said one word about that. There is no difference between, a woman writing a Biblical article, publishing a newsletter or speaking
in front of a group of people. Anyone who is teaching from the Bible, be it man or woman is doing what God wants us to. If a man or
a woman starts teaching things of Satan then they are not one of God's and we need to discern that by their fruits.
I do not
believe that you have gone into the Greek, Hebrew or Historical background on the things you are using to condemn and keep women from
teaching others the word of God. If you would study those things you would understand that men and women are to be partners, whether
it be in spiritual matters or in marriage. Study the divorce rate and why it is so high. When husband and wife are partners equally
sharing in everything together, the marriage works. When the husband tries to control the wife through some form of abuse or being
to strict those marriages fail because there is no partnership, it is more like a dictatorship. Men will fail approval of God if they
bar women from teaching the word of God.
There are many scriptures in the Bible that speak of abominations, but I don't see a
single one that says that it is an abomination for any man, woman or child to teach the word of God, whether it be in an article,
a newsletter or from a podium in a room full of people. Through your own misguided hatred of women you are teaching against God. I
hope you will rethink this matter and join us again at some point because we can learn from you just as you can learn from us.
Below
are only a couple of scriptures in regard to what an abomination is and these and others never say that teaching the word of God is
an abomination to God and those who teach such, teach against God.
-
Lev. 11:12. Whatsoever hath no fins nor scales in the waters, that
shall be an abomination unto you.
-
Lev. 20:13. If a man also lie with mankind, as he lieth with a woman, both of them have committed
an abomination: they shall surely be put to death; their blood shall be upon them.
-
1 Kings 11:5. For Solomon went after Ashtoreth
the goddess of the Zidonians, and after Milcom the abomination of the Ammonites.
