The fact that Jesus chose to appear before a woman first.
So a testimony of a woman about Jesus is literally how Christianity spread.

I don’t understand what you mean by this.
My apologies. I unfortunately presume too much sometimes.
The apostle Paul, a Jewish Pharisee, was an early persecutor of the early Christians, On a mission against the early Church he was intercepted by Jesus on the way to Damascus and experienced a miraculous conversion.
quote:
But Saul, still breathing threats and murder against the disciples of the Lord, went to the high priest and asked him for letters to the synagogues at Damascus, so that if he found any belonging to the Way, men or women, he might bring them bound to Jerusalem.
Now as he went on his way, he approached Damascus, and suddenly a light from heaven flashed around him. And falling to the ground he heard a voice saying to him, “Saul, Saul, why are you persecuting me?” And he said, “Who are you, Lord?” And he said, “I am Jesus, whom you are persecuting. But rise and enter the city, and you will be told what you are to do.”
The men who were travelling with him stood speechless, hearing the voice but seeing no one.
Saul rose from the ground, and although his eyes were opened, he saw nothing. So they led him by the hand and brought him into Damascus. And for three days he was without sight, and neither ate nor drank.
Now there was a disciple at Damascus named Ananias. The Lord said to him in a vision, “Ananias.” And he said, “Here I am, Lord.” And the Lord said to him, “Rise and go to the street called Straight, and at the house of Judas look for a man of Tarsus named Saul, for behold, he is praying, and he has seen in a vision a man named Ananias come in and lay his hands on him so that he might regain his sight.” But Ananias answered, “Lord, I have heard from many about this man, how much evil he has done to your saints at Jerusalem. And here he has authority from the chief priests to bind all who call on your name.”
But the Lord said to him, “Go, for he is a chosen instrument of mine to carry my name before the Gentiles and kings and the children of Israel. For I will show him how much he must suffer for the sake of my name.”
So Ananias departed and entered the house. And laying his hands on him he said, “Brother Saul, the Lord Jesus who appeared to you on the road by which you came has sent me so that you may regain your sight and be filled with the Holy Spirit.”
And immediately something like scales fell from his eyes, and he regained his sight. Then he rose and was baptized; 19 and taking food, he was strengthened
Acts 9:1-13,.

You are wise.
You are very kind. I am 70 now. When I was 22, Jesus knocked me off my metaphorical horse and brought me into his kingdom. Since then I’ve tried to serve him as I’m able.

In Romans 16, Paul refers to Pheobe as a servant of the church. Priscilla was not a pastor of a church. She absolutely was an important part of the church, as was Aquila her husband. Neither were named as head of any church or pastors in any way.
Heres what you feminists dont get. God has a role for women that is immensely important in the Church. He designated men to lead the Church and be leaders of his people. This is consistent throughout the entire Bible. At times he has used women and emboldened them to take decisive and heroic actions. Some of the most courageous acts of the Bible were by women.
The issue is that people are so self important in their own eyes that they view themselves as enlightened more than anyone else in history. They are so blinded by their politics that they literally see clear as day scripture that has been interpreted one way for 2500 years and say "no im just gonna ignore that"
Solomon warns about this several times in Proverbs "A mans ways seem right IN HIS OWN EYES"
If I had to guess, id say the people advocating for women pastors in this thread are not Christians but leftists pushing their agendas. The woman larping as a pastor in the video is also a pretender.

Excellent post.

This...
does not equate to this:
Again, because Jesus only called male apostles it might be assumed that men are preferred or loved more by God...this is untrue. Jesus clearly had a close relationship with Mary Magdalene that may have rivaled Peter. He wasnt making a statement about the role of women in the Church by appearing to her first

Meh. I blame Adam. He could’ve easily said “God- this one’s broken. Would you please make me another one?”

Not exactly. A couple of the guys she told, Peter and John, ran to the tomb to confirm it was empty as reported. Interestingly, it’s recorded the younger guy, John, beat the older guy, Peter, and got to the tomb first.

No in the Bible.

There were female deacons and pastors in Paul’s letters. He addressed them.
I'm afraid you've been misinformed and lead astray by modernism. The Bible is clear in it's reverance for women and also their place in the church leadership.

That is not how it happened.
Yes, Jesus appeared before the women first, but then he appeared to Peter and the Twelve, before appearing before 500 other disciples. Christianity spread because the earliest followers of Christ were visited by the Risen Jesus and told to go and make disciples of all nations just before his Ascension.

1 Timothy 2:12
And Titus 1:6-9
"if a man is blameless, the husband of one wife, having faithful children not accused of [b]dissipation or insubordination. For a [c]bishop must be blameless, as a steward of God, not self-willed, not quick-tempered, not given to wine, not violent, not greedy for money, but hospitable, a lover of what is good, sober-minded, just, holy, self-controlled, holding fast the faithful word as he has been taught, that he may be able, by sound doctrine, both to exhort and convict those who contradict.
Elder, bishop, pastor are used interchangeably in the NT. Is this person the husband of one wife?
