BC, no more after this please.
no one ever said women can not share and preach to unsaved people. Apollos was unsaved because the gospel he had been under was no longer in existence since before the cross.
but I don't want to debat with a woman who is teaching her preconceived ideas of what scriptures says. when it is clear what it says. dead is dead not lost at the GWT.
He believed John the Baptist teaching of the coming Christ and was baptised into john baptism just like the certain disciples of Acts 19. these men were not saved for the dispensation had passed and they were teaching and preaching a different gospel than that of Paul.s. No one had been saved through that type of Gospel for over twenty five years when Paul confronts them.
I am studying and teaching through the book of Acts and I preached acts 19 last week and 20 this week. Apollos was not saved, he only preached in the synagogues, after being corrected by Aquila and Priscilla he did get saved and it is only after that we see him teaching in the churches of God. he could of refused their teaching and been as lost as he was before they called him to themselves. but he was saved after hearing the true Gospel of faith alone in Christ finished work of the cross.
Priscilla still had her husband present it was not her alone. Even for the Jews a woman is not to teach a man. Though she was there I assure you she had very little to do with it. So are you Linda's Husband? if so you should speak mmore than she and if so it should be to the lost. throughout acts I have seen many places that a woman can teach and preach but every instance it is to lost people not saved. I am Saved.
I know you probably don't like that fact that the Bible teaches someone could be lost who is mighty in scriptures and eloquent in speach. but look where he is from Alexandria, the place where all heresy in the modern translations. many men today are that way but it doesn't prove they are saved or correct in their teaching.
Paul runs into it in Acts 20 and straightens them out. they were not saved either they hadn't even got the Holy Ghost which all true beleivers in this dispensation get the moment they believe. Appolos didn't have it no did these 12 certain disciples. their faith was in the coming of Christ not the death of Christ.
I have three women teachers in my church but none of them teach saved men. in or out of the church.
concernig the seven daughters of philip. though it is said they were prophecied it never gives any example of them prophecying in the church. just because they were doen't mean they were teachers (remember adding to scriputre is a very subtle thing beware for your heart can deceive you for it is still wicked and deceitful above all measure). do you allow women to preach from your pulpit? do you allow women to prophecy in your church? or only in Bible studies? any place the church (organic body) gathers would constitue a place where women are not to teach a saved man and the body has gathered in this forum. though it is not an official church organization it is a place of gathering. with lost also. that is why it is to be edification and not pushing our opinions. we should mind our practice here as if it were in you own church building. if you cause confusion of doctrines is not that working against the purpose of the forum? best to admit we don't agree and move on.
now that we are way off topic lets drop it and you all move on to some other misunderstanding of scriputres with in the topic.
I am to tired and busy to answer your retoric
