It is a free country, and people can say whatever nonsense they want.

However to say you're led by the Holy Spirit to disobey holy Scripture is serious nonsense indeed.

The test of Spirit led leadership is whether or not it agrees with the Bible. Women in authority and teaching men does not...unless you want to say the Apostle Paul was wrong. If you do say that, please don't claim to be a Christian--as Christians must obey God first in His word.

Paul's letters, etc., were selected for inclusion in the NT by a committee of men.

It is presumed they were guided by the Holy Spirit.

On the other hand, NO ONE has ever said Paul simply sat there and took dictation directly from God.

I have no doubt at all that he got some of it wrong. In this case he misused instructions given to us in the OT for a purpose not intended at the time they were written.
