    Hello, just a thought I have been concerned about this issues of women pastors for awhile. I'm not the judge. But the word is pretty plain on the subject. Go back and read in Genesis about the order of men an women ,Noah and his sons went in the ark first then his sons. Animals went in male and then female it make alot of sense to me on God order. The twelve were men for a reason. I don't think a woman can't preach but to be over men I think that's the question. I truly believe that God has a order. As a woman I glad to have a husband that is my help mate to do things I can't do . I don't want to be over men because as a woman we think emotionally a lot of times and the Lord knew that, that's the way the Lord made women. God has the answer. His word is forever settled. His word has been purified over and over and over and has withstood the test of time and it will withstand the test of time.

    Pam, Whom God anoints; He appoints. He will accomplish His Word.

    King David was a shepherd. Samuel anointed David King over Israel. It was YEARS before He made it to Jerusalem.

    We have this same issue come up frequently. A preacher friend Iverna Tompkins ministers to Churches. Generally meetings with women. Sometimes the Pastor requests men or women to attend as a mixed group.

    If you listen to a couple of her videos on Youtube__the message she delivers (the Word) is anointed. Everyone is blessed who attends.

    On the Day of Pentecost in the Upper Room, IT WAS A MIXED CROWD. All of them received the Baptism of the HOLY SPIRIT. The room spilled out in the streets! Everyone heard the message (gift of tongues) in their own language. All 3 Mary's were there: His mother, Lazarus's sister Mary and Mary Magdalene.

    The Holy Spirit came as a rushing wind, doors and windows blew open, and the fire of tongues fell on all those who were there. And everyone was experiencing the gift of tongues, they were prophesying and proclaiming Jesus as Messiah, King of Kings, Lord of Lords with all their strength.

    People outside heard the sounds and rushed to see what was happening and they too heard their own language!

    Jesus meant it to be this way THEN AND NOW. We are so cultured and PC you rarely see the gifts of the Holy Spirit in a church service. I've been in churches that allow the Holy Spirit to Come and Fall on us. He did. I walked towards the stage and the Power of the Holy Spirit was so strong, we all fell into a kneeling position. 2/3 of the church got touched or healed. The oil of joy poured on us and all the pressures of life and depression were lifted off.

    Men or women are all able to pray ISAIAH 61 or Luke 4:18. We are all called to GO YE INTO ALL OF OUR WORLD and work in the Harvest. Do you hear that call?

    Ask the Holy Spirit to fill you and anoint your message.

    Receive the joy and fill your lamps with oil.

    Matthew 25:12, John 9:35-38.

    According to what I read in John 20:17 (KJV Crown copyright in the UK),

    Jesus commanded Mary Magdalene to "...go to my brethren, and say unto them, I ascend unto my Father, and your Father; and to my God, and your God."

    Every Easter, the message that Mary Magdalene dutifully delivered is proclaimed on billboards and Church marquees all across Christendom.

    Similarly, God gave Blessed Mary a pretty important message to go tell on the Mountain...
