These Pastors Need to Step Down Immediately

There's no lack of clarity with regard to what the Bible says about women who preach. And the mission, the mission requires that I come out of this trance.

Out of both Sheikah and Messiah. The mission requires that I come out of this trance.

But in spite of the clarity of Scripture, this has become a monstrous issue in our day.

Night is a historic night. We're going to ordain our first three women pastors as a

Saddleback pastor I will protect the unity of our church

One divine statement answers the question what does the Bible say about women preachers and God is not looking for perfection

Cuz if he was he wouldn't have picked us He wouldn't have picked me and he wouldn't have picked you he's looking for potential

He is perfectly Okay with the space between who you are right now in this moment and who you're going to become

Because he sees the fighter in you. It's in verse 35 the last part of the verse

It is improper for a woman to speak in church. He can cause your finances to go further

He can cause things to happen that you've never even thought to happen If you'll do your part and that is have this acceleration mindset be determined I'm not going to focus on the intrusion

I'm not going to focus on the fact that I feel like my seeds get eaten. That's not ambiguous

That's not at all unclear. It is improper for a woman to speak in church. That is an absolute prohibition

Feminism is an extremely powerful force in our society that has taken over both countless churches and the entire culture as a whole

For example, listen to a clip from Taylor Swift song the man

But I think it's safe to say that if Taylor Swift were indeed a man She would not be the pop superstar that she is today

Taylor is simply repeating talking points that simply are not true in our modern culture today

And here is Megan Rapinoe from the US women's soccer team Talking about how unfair it is that women's soccer players are being paid less than male soccer players

We've filled stadiums. We've broken viewing records and yet despite all of this.

We're still Paid less than our male counterparts if it can happen to me with the brightest light shining on us at all times

It can and it does happen to every person who is marginalized by gender

But there is a very easy explanation for this commenters under this video said this

Men's World Cup generates six point one billion dollars in revenue teams get seven percent of that revenue while women's generates 131 million dollars and teams get 23 % there's no such thing as equal pay in soccer or sport in general for that matter

The Men's World Cup is the largest sporting event in the world The revenues that it attracts dwarfs the

Women's World Cup and how many of the US national team play in Europe? Christian Pulisic is on $200 ,000 a week playing for Chelsea.

It's a talent gap not a pay gap Nobody wants to pay to watch somebody kick a ball at the same level as a high schooler

And interestingly the US women's soccer team actually lost against a team of 15 year old teenagers now

I know the US national team is really successful. They've done really well, but you did lose to 15 year old teenage boys

Let's not forget that. There's no top male national team that would lose 15 year old boys Also feminist ideology continues to destroy movie after movie in Hollywood One of the latest examples of this is the new

Indiana Jones the dial of destiny movie Which is set to lose a lot of money

Partly because viewers cannot stand the feminist main character played by Phoebe Waller -Bridge

Because film you're really scaling new heights of imagination when it comes to legacy male characters, aren't you?

All we need now is for some plucky young female character to come into his life and show him the way and listen to the main actress of the upcoming

Snow White remake talk about completely ignoring the main storyline of the original

Snow White movie for the sake of female empowerment You said you were bringing a modern edge to it on stage.

What do you mean by that? I just mean that it's no longer 1937 and we absolutely wrote a

Snow White that is Saved by the prince and she's not gonna be dreaming about true love.

She's dreaming about becoming the leader She knows she can be and the leader that her late father told her that she could be if she was fearless fair brave and True and so it's just a really incredible story for I think young people everywhere to see themselves in know why it is running for president launching my campaign

The point of all of this is that there is immense pressure from the culture for the church to cave to feminist ideologies and Indeed countless churches are not willing to stand firm upon the clear teachings of Scripture and fight against what the culture wants from them 50 % of women enrolled in seminaries 50 % of I should say

MDiv students in seminaries are women preparing for pastoral ministry 25 % of seminary faculties are women.

That means you have women faculty members teaching women students to be pastors 11 % of seminary presidents are women 27 % of pastors across this country are women.

This is an explosion in 1962 % of clergy were women the women's movement has basically just erupted in the church and the last frontier for the movement is

The Evangelical Church the last frontier to fall victim to the rebellion of feminism This is particularly shocking considering how clear scripture is on the subject of God creating men and women to have different roles within the church and family and My wife is not gonna let me like go home if I don't ask this question because she can't ask it

You can answer it after this. She just wanted to know why why women are not allowed to to preach in the church

And if a woman feels that she has the gift of preaching why why isn't she allowed first Timothy chapter 2 in verse 12

I do not prevent a woman to teach or exercise authority over a man rather She is to remain quiet.

So because the Bible says so and that's it The other thing is well, what if a person feels like they have gifts to do that?

let's pause for a moment here and note that this is the exact argument that Joyce Meyer makes for why she

Unashamedly and unapologetically teaches men in her ministry. I totally when I started it

I wasn't even cognizant of the fact that women didn't normally do that I mean I was just so caught up and you know

I always teasing I say I didn't know women couldn't teach till people started telling me That they couldn't write and so in this church that we were going to they felt like that I wasn't supposed to be teaching that Dave should be

Teaching I remember going out of the church one Sunday and the pastor looking at Dave and he said Brother you should be teaching that Bible study.

Not your wife at the same time him saying it. I'm I'm thinking You know that you know, why did

God not give me the gift? Why did he give it to her? But the obvious answer is that just because someone feels called to do something does not mean that it is right for that person to do that thing as Christians we need to submit to what the

Bible teaches not what we want the Bible to teach No one gets to do everything they feel like they're gifted at No one does

What if a man who has? several wives Feels like he's gifted to be a pastor.

The Bible says he must be the husband of one wife, right? So just because you feel like you're gifted to do something that doesn't give you the right to overthrow biblical qualifications the office of the elder

Paul says, you know when he's talking about the elder, he must be the husband of one wife.

He's talking about man Okay, that office is exclusively for men That's the office of the pastor teacher

So if the office is exclusively for men and the Bible is very clear that women are not to teach or exercise authority over men

There's absolutely no room For women to be in that office or to exercise that authority

We have already said that there is immense pressure from the culture upon the church to compromise concerning scriptures clear teachings concerning the different roles of men and women a very clear example of this is what these women said to Vodie Bauckham when he was invited on to CNN for the first and Only time and quite frankly feminism has gained a foothold in many evangelical churches

Do you think that's a good thing? No, I don't not at all Well because we're about the gospel the culture doesn't dictate truth the gospel dictates truth

My job is not to be a political pundit or political activist My job is to be a pastor and proclaim the truth of the gospel as clearly as I possibly can

Well, wait a minute. What about the Old Testament and the Prophet Deborah? I mean, she was a political leader. She was a wife

She was a mother. She was one of the the biggest forces in the book of Judges. So that's the gospel right there

She sure she certainly was and the fact that something happened doesn't mean that it's normative for the church in Isaiah chapter 3

For example, one of the signs that a culture is under judgment is that women are in leadership in their nations?

So Deborah was actually assigned that things were very bad in Israel. Not a norm for the church

Sexist or is it just me I Would have to say the reverend is sounding a little questionable there it might be easy to think that the people who oppose scriptures teachings concerning the role of women in the church are mostly non -christians and Radically progressive

Christians, but that is simply not the case in the face of that It might be shocking to you to know this but in a survey conducted in 2017 about 80 % of Americans are comfortable with a female pastor 62 % of Practicing Christians are open to women pastors 40 % of evangelicals are

Fine with women pastor We have already seen in the introduction of this video with some of the largest mega churches in the country fully embrace

Allowing women to be pastors and to preach in front of entire congregations Chelsea Smith is one of the pastors at church home the church that Justin Bieber is said to attend

It's not really surprising that someone who is willing to compromise about what scripture teaches about the role of women in the church

Is also willing to compromise about other things also that scripture is very clear about Take a look at the shocking thing.

Chelsea says in this clip. I have so much empathy and Understanding for followers of Jesus who would say

I believe that life begins at conception And I believe that stopping an abortion is saving a life

That's a very saving a life is a very valid cause But that's not the only life that we're called to save if you're pro -life

Wow There's a lot of life Did we really just hear Chelsea say that she has empathy for Christians who say that life begins at conception?

Which suggests that she herself does not believe this This is very shocking language from someone who not only calls herself a

Christian, but even a Christian pastor We see something very similar from one of the largest megachurch pastors in the country

Andy Stanley who is also compromised concerning men and women having different roles in the church and family.

This is a game -changer Here's what Paul said before he told wives submit to their husbands. Here's the verse that sets the tone for everything that follows

Here's our verb Submit to one another out of and there it is again every time the

Apostle Paul tells us to do something He points us back to Jesus. Not the Old Testament. Not the Ten Commandments Jesus as God through Christ has done something extraordinary for you

You are to demonstrate that same kind of love in your relationships with each other including romantic relationships including

Marriage you are to submit to one another out of reverence to Christ. In other words the submission guys get ready is

Mutual Andy Stanley is misinterpreting Ephesians 5 because the interpretation of the phrase be subject to one another

Is dependent upon all of the context that comes before it verse 21 says and be subject to one another in the fear of Christ Now here's the problem the smallest

Breakdown of Scripture the smallest division of Scripture is not the verse The Bible wasn't written with chapters and verses the smallest division of Scripture is the paragraph now

The problem is verse 22 is the beginning of a paragraph But at the beginning of the paragraph you don't have a verb so they borrowed the verb from verse 21

Small problem verse 21 is the end of a paragraph So if you want to understand the context of verse 22, you got to go all the way back to verse 15

So that's what we're gonna start in order for you to get this picture and hopefully it will revolutionize your understanding of what we're talking about here today here out how to get straight people as Excited about serving and engaging is the gay men and women.

I know we would have a volunteer backlog That's my experience in our churches Well, I'm a gay person.

I'll just read it to you a gay person when I say gay and men and women, okay a Gay person who still wants to attend church

After the way the church has treated the gay community. I'm telling you they have more faith than I do

They have more faith than a lot of you enough already with this gay Christian stuff And I don't just say enough already

I don't mean this in the sense of you know They're over there and I'm over here. I mean this in the pastoral sense.

How cruel is that? If a man comes to me talking about a desire for a woman who is not his wife

I'm not going to tell him to just go ahead and embrace the desire because the desire in and of itself is okay

It's not although feminism purports to lift women up and empower them against abuse and patriarchy the reality is that Feminism is actually harmful to women because it distorts the truth about how

God designed men and women to complement one another Not to be essentially the exact same thing as one another and we're also a society that hates women now you say

Yeah, those Male chauvinists they hate women No women hate women the people who hate women more than anybody else on this planet are feminist

They hate women. They want women to be men. They don't want them to be

Women and any woman who says I believe that it is my desire to be in my home to raise

Godly children to support my husband and the endeavors that he has to go through in order to provide for our family

Any woman who does that is considered a failure in our society? The reason why it is so important to preserve scriptures teachings concerning how

God designed men and women to have different roles in the church and home Is because this design by God is an illustration of the gospel itself

And when we eliminate the distinctions in God's design we do harm to the very gospel

We are trying to proclaim to the world We see in Ephesians chapter 5, for example, that marriage is not just for procreation and also for a sanctification

It's righteous outlet for human sexual desires But it's also for illustration this beautiful picture of the relationship between Jesus Christ and his bride the church

Jesus Christ who gives us a picture of what real male headship and marriage is supposed to look like when he lays down his life for his bride when he takes upon himself the sins of his people and suffers the punishment due to their sins

So that their righteousness being imputed or their sinfulness being imputed to him

His righteousness can be imputed to them so that in this double imputation He can atone for their sins and save them from their sins and grant them entree

Into eternity with the triune God and his perfect unity

Christ died for sin Once for all but just for the unjust in order that he may bring us back to God God made him who knew no sin to be sin for us so that we might become the righteousness of God in him

This is what marriage is a picture of which means that when we go to war against Genesis 2

We go to war against the gospel. Thank you so much for watching. If you like these videos I want to help support this channel
