I have been appalled on several occassions at some women that attend my church ( not all of them, but a few) and now more than ever (I think) see why God created the order of leadership in the manner that He did.
On one occassion i was at a horribly unbiblical meeting that was called at my church by some lay people that do not study their Bible very much from what i gathered. Every time a man would begin to say something, some woman would interrupt so that she could hear herself talk for like 15 minutes. This happened over and over again. I must also say that some fault does fall on the men for two reasons.
1. The men were doing something, by having the meeting, that was HORRIBLE!!!!!!!!!
2. The men were acting like cowards and would not take the floor after being interrupted.
Last night there were at least two (very loud) women that were acting in a terrible manner as well. I cannot go into detail because everyone who attends my church would know exactly who i was talking about.
Read these verses in 1 Cor.
34The women are to keep silent in the churches; for they are not permitted to speak, but are to subject themselves, just as the Law also says.
35If they desire to learn anything, let them ask their own husbands at home; for it is improper for a woman to speak in church.
For the women reading this blog. If you are acting like a woman should then may God bless you to continue being like Christ.
If you are not then please take Scripture to heart and if you have questions ask your husband. Do not waste everybody elses time.
For the men. STOP ACTING LIKE COWARDS. Be a man!!!!!!!
Also, for the men. Biblical leadership in the household means that you are to lead on behalf of your wife and not as a tyrant. In not being a coward please still act as Christ does toward His beautiful bride.

Good post. Waiting for the backlash though. :D
It's all very heartbreaking. How everyone can be in ministry together at one point...love one another, share together, do life together...and then the devil takes hold...heartbreaking.
I am not sure what you mean.
well as for the devil taking hold just remember that God only allows the devil to do things and that the devil's power is great but in no way in comparison with God's and also God is working out His will in our church and unfortunately all this stuff has to happen to change lives.
But Jeff you are speaking truth however im not sure that it is in love. 1 Corinthians 13:1 my man without love you're just making noise. Believe me you know how much i wanted to write a blog on all this crazy stuff but i just can't do it in love.
God have mercy on us.
Jeff Hill,
Thank you for visiting my blog today. Looking at this post of yours, what is the context of your complaint? I read it like someone just ranted of their dislikes of a particular situation.
Mr. Paul,
It would be innappropriate(I think) for me to share the context due to the fact that I would have to say some very negative things about some people who attend my church. Which is a big deal because many people who go to my church read this blog and not all of them currently know exactly what or whom I am talking about.
However, your point is well taken. I will try to make sure everyone reading can follow what i am saying.
Oh, and in part I was ranting.
My apologies again.
By the way. I love your blog with all the mp3's on it. keep it going.
Jeff,
I understand, we all rant one time or another, especially Christian bloggers. LOL
Paul
