Just as the apostle Paul indicated that God chose the base things of the world to confound the wise or the so called "prudent." I believe that when those who are called (male or female, Jew or Greek, bond or fee) rise up in the demonstration of God's power, it will eradicate and overthrow the inerrant philosophies those that think they are wise. But again we do not move or reprove the Scriptures based on man's wisdom but through the power, so that people's faith can rest not in man's wisdom but in the wisdom of God. I am so glad that you are standing for what you know to be the truth and the Law of Liberty for all mankind! For those who have a question about Jesus' decision to choose only men don't understand the difference between the Law and Faith in Christ. Jesus chose only men because He had not fulfilled the requirements of the Law yet. It was only until the veil (which is His flesh) was torn and ripped that all and I do mean all could come boldly to the throne of grace. Therefore because He had not fulfilled the Law until then, He subjected Himself to the obedience of the Law until it was satisfied by His atonement. How can anyone fulfill the Law if He does not yet subject himself to its very rules and regulations. However, we are living in the Davidic age that says all are welcome to come and offer up to God the sacrifice of Praise. It is funny how the enemy makes a big deal about women serving in the Temple, but he never seems to stir up strife about the Greek or the slave. Neither of these were able to serve as well until Christ broke the wall of partition that kept them out. Now what reamins the problem is the fact that we will not allow the spirit of God to pour into us fresh wine because we like the old better! Needless to say, we have to continually remind those that in the spirit their is no gender! That's why Christ indicated that in heaven there will be no giving away in marriage in the Resurrection. Lord Please let us be transformed into a resurrected mentality so that the dead can bury the dead and the war can cease. Again, as I close we are no longer under fleshly ordinances (for those were only a shadow until the real comes)Hebrews 9. You have to ask yourself this question: Which is more real, the natural which is temporal or the sirit which is eternal? We must learn the difference between the natural order of things and the spiritual entity of the the corporate body of Christ. It is time for a reformation(change or renewing of mind). Unfortunately, changing mindsets can be painful because people take pride in the way that they think; rather than allowing the mind of the spirit of christ to formed in them. Those who try to receive this new wine wihtout putting on a new wineskine will have many outbursts of wrath. They must be willing to take on a new mindset. So instead of humbling themselves, the remain prideful. These people will not go to hell persay but they will never know the fullness and abundance that this new order can bring. As for me, I refuse to walk in any one els's shadow(Meaning the Law).

But I do see it as, at least a church-made thing, something they had to do to train and hold pastors accountable, which I think is great. In fact, we should have more support and accountability as pastors in my denomination. As far as the twelve disciples being men, for me it's a case of semantics. All 12 were also Jewish and yet we ordain Gentiles. Given the women leaders in the New Testament--particularly Phoebe in Romans 16, whom Paul calls a servant using the same Greek word he uses when he calls Timothy and Titus (a Gentile) pastors, I don't think the 12 disciples can be the be all end all of ordination requirements.
