DavidM writes: I like he way Holy Hubert worded this. Hubert Lindsey was the greatest of street preachers, in my opinion. Hubert said, "Women should never tell men what to do, but they should tell the whole world what Jesus did for them." DAVEH: Ohhhhhhhh.....that is pretty good! Judy: You really think so DaveH? Remember it's just Holy Hubert's personal opinion and one to which God apparently does not subscribe. DAVEH: Nor apparently do you, Judy. May I suggest you tell Dean where to go so I can see how Hubert got it wrong.... <VBG> Judy: Tell Dean where to go? Are you trying to get me in trouble DaveH? You are right that I don't subscribe to Hubert's opinion. If God can use a donkey to keep an errant prophet from being killed He can and does use whoever He wants and this includes women. Under the old covenant there were Huldah (2 Kings 22:16) and Deborah (Judges 4:4) who were prophetesses, Deborah was also a judge in Israel. In the NT Jesus elevated women from the burden of prejudice when he encouraged Mary to sit at His feet and learn which He called the "the better part which wouldn't be taken away from her" - the first 'street preacher' was a women (the Samaritan woman at the well) and the first to see Him after the resurrection were women. Paul speaks of women who labored with him in the gospel (Phil 4:3b); and incidentally Hubert Lindsey had women who labored with him also according to his book. Philip had four daughters who prophesied (Acts 21:9); there were deaconesses Phoebe (Romans 16:1,2) and others along with Eunice and Lois who raised the boy Timothy (who had a Greek father) in the scriptures until he was qualified to become the first Bishop at Ephesus. I don't believe that women should usurp men and this kind of love and respect goes both ways. There is a natural order because God made women weaker vessels physically (1 Cor 11:3); the headship of man is in order to take responsibility and serve rather to Lord it over his wife and all other women and spiritually there is no difference because we are all one in Christ (Galatians 3:28) Grace and Peace, Judy ---------- "Let your speech be always with grace, seasoned with salt, that you may know how you ought to answer every man."
