We see from Galatians 3:28 in the last post that we are one in Christ. There are certain things such as slavery mentioned in the rest of the verse that supposedly are outlawed almost worldwide (but that continue unabated nonetheless). Thus; when we see Revelation 13:16-18 we see slaves still being mentioned; along with every type person in society (in that case LOST people taking the Mark of the Beast); and in Rev. 13:7 we see every trible; tongue and language who is represented in heaven (saved folk).
I have probably stated before that there are some women who I consider of superior intellect. An example is Amy Van Gerpen at Tracking Bible Prophecy. Her teaching on Revelation is now complete; each chapter being jam packed with page after page of scripture cross references. She is not claiming any authority to teach as a Pastor; and goes to church with her husband. It is in my estimation unsurpassed for detail and theologically accurate.
Sadly though even if we could take an "impartial" approach to women teaching in the church on the pulpit when you look at the women who are prominent or simply calling themselves "public speakers" they often take up a role of authority and I am not aware of any at this point who don't have major theological and/or doctrinal error. Of course as far as prosperity preachers in general I can't say much better. So there is perhaps a predilection for such apostasy and deception to continue with women in these roles ( 1 Tim. 2:12). I have also discussed what roles women can have; and their strength that tends to be with prayer and at times discernment. Also I probably brought up how women were to cover their heads while prophesying or in prayer (ostensively in a public setting) so there are tines things are said; and of course this excludes private settings to some extent.
Kings and priests in Revelation 5:10 could include women as far as I see.
Okay take 2...
