No women pastors....period...Is that how I really feel? Damn right.
Female “pastors” never seem very interested in the Gospel.
Any denomination that does allow women pastors is not following scripture and is thus corrupted by following the ways of the world, not the Lord.
I was once a COG admirer, but not since they routinely allow women in the pulpit. The charismatics are flagrant violators of this principle.
Women pastors are nothing more than anti-Christian witches.
The Bible doesn't say if she fed Barak's troops her Little Debbie pastries.
Ping!
LCMS reference.
Ephesians 5:23 “For the husband is the head of the wife as Christ is the head of the church, His body, of which He is the Savior.”
If I understand Orthodoxy correctly, that's just about the most damning thing an Orthodox Christian can say about a theological proposition. It's the equivalent of a Catholic saying "Anathema sit!"
>> seven examples of Christian denominations in the United States that do not allow women to serve in the role of pastor or priest. They include older churches.
The Orthodox Church The Orthodox Church traces its origins to the first century and is most prominent in Eastern Europe and Africa, does not permit women to be ordained.
The Roman Catholic Church The Roman Catholic Church, the largest denomination in Christianity which also traces its origins back to the first generation of Christians, does not allow for women to become priests. <<
Gotta love the irony that the so-called "Bible belivin'" fundamentalist "born again" protestant churches, who are "very theologically conservative" and who swear up and down that they follow the "Bible alone" are the ONLY ones that ordain women "pastors"
Those "unbiblical" Catholic and Orthodox churches with the so-called "liberal marxist Pope" have NEVER allowed woman "pastors", and never will.
During a meeting at the UMC we attend
“What if they send us a gay pastor?”
Older woman: “Fine with me as long as it isn’t a woman”
I don’t know what it is about older people not liking female pastors even if they are in a denomination that allows them.

Did we forget to count the SBC?
***Read about 10 theologically conservative denominations that allow female pastors here and here***
I just checked. These links lead to a 404 page not found.
The very word ‘pastor’ also means elder, presbyter, shepherd or bishop. And the Bible states that men (never women) who serve as a pastor must serve with other pastors. Always a plurality.
In other words, a local congregation must have more than one pastor.
In specific words, a typical baptist or non denominal church headed up by one pastor is unscriptural.
I want my pastor to be the general in the fray, not the sweet nurturing mother. I grant there’s a place for both in the church but leadership is men.
Eastern Orthodox churches. All of them.
My personal experience with female pastors is of women looking to control everything. And....every one of them is unattractive, and/or a lesbian. They do not have a husband or children because they wouldn’t have time for them. Pastoring can be a 24 hr. a day job. You to be a real control freak to take that on.
