PROPHETESSES - BIBLICAL PROPHETESS BIBLE PATH
WOMEN PROPHETS OR PROPHETESS IN THE BIBLE GIFT
Another great Step
today, loaded with
TRUTH ... Glad to
have you here to
share it with me!
|
Proverbs
25:11
A word
fitly
spoken
is like
apples
of gold
in
pictures
of
silver. |
Sometimes we believe
that we know the
TRUTH about
something, but do we
know the whole
TRUTH? Do we put
ourselves in other
people’s shoes
before we decide
what the TRUTH of a
matter is and even
try and determine
their destiny?
Oft
times when we read
things, we like to
apply the parts that
we agree with to our
lives, but the rest,
we disregard. This
is even true many
times when we read
the Bible. Sometimes
we don’t bother to
search for the
whole
TRUTH, because it
may not fit our
lifestyle ... Or
our approval!
Since you are
becoming more and
more virtuous, you'll
probably feel the
urge to talk about
your Christianity
more with people, so
let's discuss a very
important question
that a lot of people
aren't quite clear
on ...
SHOULD A WOMAN
PREACH?
Let’s take a look at
the
whole
TRUTH, from several
different
viewpoints.
The
Bible is a big book,
no question about
it, and many
Christians have
never read it cover
to cover, let alone
understood all of
it’s implications.
In addition, we’re
all individuals and
the interpretation
for one person, is
quite different from
the interpretation
for another, even
when two people are
reading the same
translation (because
the Holy Spirit
provides different
messages for
different people at
different times)!
Looking at things
from a different
point of view is a
very important
thing, and the
challenge in this
Step, is to open
your mind to
different viewpoints
about women teaching
or preaching using
ALL Scripture on the
matter.
We’re
going to start off
with a little
exercise in looking
at things from a
different
perspective. Did you
know that all things
in the Bible do not
apply to all people.
Jesus Himself
explained this when
He was talking about
the laws of divorce
and said:
|
Matthew
19:11
All men
cannot
receive
this
saying,
except
those to
whom it
is
given. |
PROPHETESSES - BIBLICAL PROPHETESS BIBLE PURPOSE
WOMEN PROPHETS OR PROPHETESS IN THE BIBLE POWER
In other words, every
situation is
different, and God
judges the heart.
Here’s a great
example:
The 6th
Commandment is: Thou
shalt not kill.
But
... Because king
Saul
didn’t kill
all
of the Amalekites,
as GOD told him to
do, it angered God
and the Prophet
Samuel came and
killed the king of
the Amalekites. This
was one of the
reasons that Saul's
anointing was taken
away and the kingdom
of Israel was taken
from him.
|
1 Samuel
15:33
And
Samuel
said, As
thy
sword
hath
made
women
childless,
so shall
thy
mother
be
childless
among
women.
And
Samuel
hewed
Agag in
pieces
before
the LORD
in
Gilgal. |
Yes,
you read that right
... A Prophet of God
killed a man cuz GOD
wanted him to.
YET
... Thou shalt not
kill.
As
you can see all laws
are not applicable
to all
circumstances.
Just
as Jesus said ...
|
Matthew
19:11
All men
cannot
receive
this
saying,
except
those to
whom it
is
given.
|
Now
you can see TRUTH
reveals that we can
be mistaken about
the TRUTH in the
Bible and we need to
study God's Word to
find the WHOLE
TRUTH.
So,
without much further
ado, let’s look at
the topic at hand:
ARE WOMEN ALLOWED TO
PREACH?
PROPHETESSES - BIBLICAL PROPHETESS BIBLE QUESTIONS
WOMEN PROPHETS OR PROPHETESS IN THE BIBLE ANSWERS
In
the Bible, a
prophetess is a
woman who speaks the
messages of God to
others.
Did
you know there are
several of these
prophetess chosen
women mentioned in
the Bible?
Check
these out ...
Miriam, Moses’
sister:
|
Exodus
15:20
And
Miriam
the
prophetess,
the
sister of Aaron, took a timbrel
in her
hand;
and all
the
women
went out
after
her with
timbrels
and with
dances. |
Deborah, who was a
judge of Israel:
|
Judges
4:4
And
Deborah,
a
prophetess,
the wife of Lapidoth,
she
judged
Israel
at that
time. |
Huldah,
who prophesied
during the reign of
king Josiah:
|
2 Kings
22:14
So
Hilkiah
the
priest,
and
Ahikam,
and
Achbor,
and
Shaphan,
and
Asahiah,
went
unto
Huldah
the
prophetess,
the wife
of Shallum
the son
of
Tikvah,
the son
of
Harhas,
keeper
of the
wardrobe;
(now she
dwelt in
Jerusalem
in the
college;)
and they
communed
with
her. |
PROPHETESSES - BIBLICAL PROPHETESS BIBLE LIST
WOMEN PROPHETS OR PROPHETESS IN THE BIBLE NAMES
Isaiah’s wife:
|
Isaiah
8:3
And I
went
unto the
prophetess;
and she
conceived, and bare a son. Then said the LORD to me, Call his name Mahershalalhashbaz. |
NOW MANY SAY ....
Okay, I agree there
WERE
women that spoke the
Word of God, but
that was back then,
what about the New
Testament? K.
Anna:
|
Luke
2:36
And
there
was one
Anna, a
prophetess,
the
daughter of Phanuel,
of the
tribe of
Aser:
she was
of a
great
age, and
had
lived
with an
husband
seven
years
from her
virginity.
|
Then they say, Okay,
but what about after
Jesus rose to Heaven
and the New Covenant
began? All right.
Philip’s four
daughters:
|
Acts
21:9
And the
same man
had
four
daughters,
virgins,
which
did
prophesy. |
PROPHETESSES - BIBLICAL PROPHETESS BIBLE TRUTH
WOMEN PROPHETS OR PROPHETESS IN THE BIBLE VOW
The
TRUTH that women
would prophesy
(Share the WORD of
GOD)
IS Prophecy.
Look
at the words of the
Lord that the
prophet Joel spoke
about what would
happen when the end
is near:
|
Joel
2:28-29
And it
shall
come to
pass
afterward,
that I
will
pour out
my
spirit
upon
all
flesh;
and your sons and
your
daughters
shall
prophesy,
your old men shall dream dreams, your young men shall see visions: And also upon
the servants and upon
the
handmaids
in those
days
will I
pour out
my
spirit. |
The
Apostle Peter
confirmed this as
well:
|
Acts
2:16-17
But this
is that
which
was
spoken
by the
prophet
Joel;
And it
shall
come to
pass in
the
last
days,
saith
God, I
will
pour out
of
my
Spirit
upon
all
flesh:
and your sons and
your
daughters
shall
prophesy
and your
young
men
shall
see
visions,
and your
old men
shall
dream
dreams. |
Sooooooo,
we see that women
HAVE and WILL speak
the Word of the
Lord.
But what about those
hardcore doubters
that accept this
TRUTH ... But will
then say that
perhaps they did and
will prophesy, but
what about the
present day?
PROPHETESSES - BIBLICAL PROPHETESS BIBLE RESEARCH
WOMEN PROPHETS OR PROPHETESS IN THE BIBLE PROMISE
You may be wondering
why these rascals
are so very
determined to prove
their point. It may
be because of a few
things Paul said.
There
are two places in
the New Testament
where Paul addresses
this subject.
This
passage is directed
at
married
women.
|
1
Corinthians
14:34-35
Let your
women
keep
silence
in the
churches:
for it
is not
permitted
for them
to
speak;
but they
are
commanded
to be
under
obedience,
as also
says the
law. And
if they
wish to
learn
any
thing,
let them
ask
their
husbands
at home:
because
it is
shameful
for
women to
speak in
the
church. |
In
this passage, Paul
says "I" don't allow
...
|
1
Timothy
2:11-15
Let the
woman
learn
in
silence
with all
subjection.
But
I
don’t
allow a
woman
to teach,
nor to
have authority over the man
but to be in silence. For Adam
was first created, then Eve. And Adam was not deceived, but the woman being
deceived was in the transgression (wrong). Nevertheless, she shall be saved in
childbearing, IF they continue in Faith and love and holiness with sobriety
(control). |
PROPHETESSES - BIBLICAL PROPHETESS BIBLE WARNING
WOMEN PROPHETS OR PROPHETESS IN THE BIBLE DANGER
If you’re a woman,
you’re probably
pouting, right about
now ...
IF you do not HEAR.
Let
me remind both, yet
again of what Jesus
said ...
|
Matthew
19:11
All men
cannot
receive
this
saying,
except
those to
whom it
is
given. |
We
can dissect this a
little further, too.
The selection from 1
Corinthians
specifies that
married
women should not
speak
in the church.
What about outside
the church? Well,
then you have to
define “church.” Is
any gathering of two
or more Christians
considered “church?”
I suppose that’s
another matter of
interpretation for
everyone to debate
about.
UNMARRIED WOMEN
We
learned earlier that
Philip’s four
daughters
prophesied.
Acts 21:9,
you’ll learn that
these women were all
virgins
(unmarried), and the
scripture from the
Prophet Joel
Joel 2:28-29
and Peter
Acts 2:16-17
that you read above
says that the Lord
will pour out His
Spirit upon the
handmaidens
(unmarried), so we
have evidence that
UNMARRIED women HAVE
Prophesied after
Jesus was taken to
Heaven.
Sooooooo, women
HAVE, WILL AND ARE
prophesying
according to the
Word of God.
Now these Christian
woman preaching
bashers can only say
"Okay, I agree with
all that, but MARRIED
Christian women
cannot preach" ...
They may use
scripture such as:
|
1
Corinthians
7:34
There is
difference
also
between
a wife
and a
virgin
(unmarried
as back
then if
you were
not
married,
you were
to be a
virgin).
The
unmarried
woman
careth
for the
things
of the
Lord,
that she
may be
holy
both in
body and
in
spirit:
but she
that is
married
careth
for the
things
of the
world,
how she
may
please
her
husband.
|
PROPHETESSES - BIBLICAL PROPHETESS BIBLE FACTS
WOMEN PROPHETS OR PROPHETESS IN THE BIBLE FEARS
But they need read
the next verse also:
|
1
Corinthians
7:35
And this
I speak
for your
own
profit;
not that
I may
cast a
snare
upon you,
but for
that which is comely, and that ye may attend upon the Lord without distraction. |
What if this matter
is just as we found
out earlier, that
one rule does not
apply to all
situations.
As
Jesus said ...
|
Matthew
19:11
All men
cannot
receive
this
saying,
except
those to
whom it
is
given. |
Now,
it may seem like
this study is very
pro-women, so we’ll
look at the other
side of the coin as
well. Without a
doubt, not every
woman should be
preaching or
teaching but only
those led by the
Holy Spirit.
In
fact, MANY events
recorded in the
Bible confirm that
when the advice of a
woman was followed
... Things turned
out for the worst.
BUT
While you are
considering that,
add this lil tidbit
...
Consider the story
of Deborah who
instructed Barak,
and Huldah who the
priest of Judah
turned to for
instruction.
They
came to her because
she was a
Prophetess.
She had the Word of
God and they came to
her for it.
Preaching
and teaching is
definitely not for
everyone
...
But
... That’s for God
to decide, not man. You on the
other hand, have to
discern whether or
not the individual's
words, whether it be
man or woman ...
Married or single
... Are words that are
divinely inspired,
and you then have
the choice of
whether or not you
will listen or
believe. But it
seems you should
hear the words as to
check the fruits as
to prove all things.
I mean ... What if
it IS God's Word
spoken through them?
What if a woman
is indeed a
prophetess of God,
and you stifle her
because you haven’t
looked at this from
a different and more
spiritual point of
view as we have been
taught to?
PROPHETESSES - BIBLICAL PROPHETESS BIBLE DISCUSSION
WOMEN PROPHETS OR PROPHETESS IN THE BIBLE QUOTES
I
mean ... Most that
disagree with a
woman sharing the
Word of God say they
take the Bible
literally and THAT
is why they say what
they say referring
to the Scripture
Paul shared.
BUT
... Is not ALL
Scripture to be
taken literally?
Like
this one ...
|
Acts
2:16-17
But this
is that
which
was
spoken
by the
prophet
Joel;
And it
shall
come to
pass in
the
last
days,
saith
God, I
will
pour out
of
my
Spirit
upon
all
flesh:
and your sons and
your
daughters
shall
prophesy
and your
young
men
shall
see
visions,
and your
old men
shall
dream
dreams. |
ALL FLESH
According to this
Scripture, when
taken literally ...
In attempting to
silence a woman, you
may have just
attempted to hush
God’s Word. You may
be telling God’s
messenger-ette to
simmer down now,
skeedaddle back to
the kitchen and
leave the
proclaiming of God’s
Word up to the men,
when God Himself may
have sent her to
share what was in
HIS mind, through
HER words. Just as
HE said He would.
|
Joel
2:28-29
And it
shall
come to
pass
afterward,
that I
will
pour out
my
spirit
upon
all
flesh;
and your sons and
your
daughters
shall
prophesy,
your old men shall dream dreams, your young men shall see visions: And also upon
the servants and upon
the
handmaids
in those
days
will I
pour out
my
Spirit. |
ALL FLESH
God
will choose whoever
He wants to and is
NOT limited to man's
limited
understanding.
PROPHETESSES - BIBLICAL PROPHETESS BIBLE TEST
WOMEN PROPHETS OR PROPHETESS IN THE BIBLE PITFALLS
|
1
Corinthians
1:27
God has
chosen
the
foolish
things
of the
world to
confound
the
wise,
and God
has
chosen
the weak
things
of the
world to
confound
the
things
which
are
mighty,
and
lowly
things
of the
world,
and
things
which
are
despised,
has God
chosen,
yes, and
things
which
don’t
seem
important,
to bring
to
nothing,
things
that
are. |
I am in harmony with
Paul that a woman
should not be
sharing HER words in
Church:
|
1
Corinthians
14:34-35
Let your
women
keep
silence
in the
churches:
for it is not permitted for them to speak; but they are commanded to be under
obedience, as also says the law. And if they wish to learn any thing,
let them
ask
their
husbands
at home:
because
it is
shameful
for
women to
speak in
the
church. |
|
1
Timothy
2:11-15
Let the
woman
learn
in
silence
with all
subjection.
But
I
don’t
allow a
woman
to teach,
nor to
have
authority
over the
man,
but to
be in
silence.
For Adam
was first created, then Eve. And Adam was not deceived, but the woman being
deceived was in the transgression (wrong). Nevertheless, she shall be saved in
childbearing, IF they continue in Faith and love and holiness with sobriety
(control). |
PROPHETESSES - BIBLICAL PROPHETESS BIBLE SUMMARY
WOMEN PROPHETS OR PROPHETESS IN THE BIBLE CALLING
BUT ...
The TRUTH is that a woman’s words,
can sometimes be
the Words of God and
HIS Words shared
thru HER can be
shared ANYWHERE,
ANYTIME to ANYONE.
It does not make HER
the teacher or the
one showing
authority over a man
...
But rather ... GOD
is teaching THROUGH
her.
Whether you’re a
married or unmarried
woman or man, the
best thing to do is
pray for the
guidance of the Holy
Spirit, and above
all, let God’s will
be done ... NOT
man's.
PONDER
ON THESE WORDS OF
TRUTH

blessings of God
follow you through
