The issue, though, is in many churches, especially in the baptist circle, is that deacons function more like elders which is a male only roll. Deacons are not supposed to be positions of authority, so first Timothy 2 doesn't negate Dr MacArthur's interpretation.

"Likewise, MUST the deacons be grave, nor doubletounged, not given to much wine, not greedy for filthy lucre; V9. Holding the mystery of the faith in a pure conscious. V.10 "And let these also first be proved ; then let them use the office of a deacon, being found blameless." V.11 "Even so must their WIVES be grave , not slandered, sober, faithful in all things", V.12 "Let the deacons be the HUSBANDS of one Wife ruling their children and their own houses well. " The Term Deacon is given in the MASCULINE Tense, NEVER in the feminine!! It is GOD'S Order for the LORD'S CHURCH, women can NOT hold any Leadership Position in Christ Church, Biblically Speaking!

In verses 8-10, Paul says, "Deacons likewise must be men of dignity, not double-tongued or addicted to much wine or fond of sordid gain, but holding to the mystery of the faith with a conscience. And let these also be first tested; then let them serve as deacons if they are beyond reproach." In verse 12, he says, "Let deacons be husbands of only one wife, and good managers of their children and of their own households." Notice that just like with the qualifications for elders in verses 1-7, Paul's list of qualifications for deacons is primarily moral. First, Paul says that deacons, just like elders, are to be good family spiritual leaders. It is vital that if they are going to spiritually serve the congregation that they know how to spiritually serve their own families. Next, Paul says that deacons are also to be tested before they are set apart for this particular work. Finally, a man must meet specific moral qualifications for the office of deacon. Specifically, the deacon is to have self-control in speech, in drink, and in the area of money. Paul wants deacons to be men of upstanding moral character. They need to be men of dignity, husbands of one wife, and good managers of their children and households. Again, Paul's pattern is to point to fundamental godliness as the qualification for the office of deacon.

I respect John MacArthur, and I know God really gifted him with the knowledge of exegesis by the Spirit. I'm currently checking out a church, I asked the head pastor if he were a complimentarian or egalitarian, and he said by conviction, a complimentarian, but then I see he permitted women deacons. I got a bit confused because I thought according to 1 Timothy 3, deacon is still considered a church leader or "overseer." While they don't preach authority over men, they are still recognized as leaders over men? I just find this "compromise" inconsistent with scripture personally. I was actually shocked to hear MacArthur's response supporting women deacons here by his interpretation of this passage.

This interpretation just does not seem natural with the text. The deacon must be a man of one wife, just like the elder. If man doesn't mean man, and wife can be applied as a husband, then so also the qualification for elder can be interchanged between the sexes too. And never in the history of the church has this understanding ever been the case, until the advent of liberal theology. The KJV seems like the most natural reading. Context determines whether it should read women or wives. Wives just seems like a natural meaning that draws the text together. The "likewise" seems like it is connecting, not women to deacon, but wives of deacons and elders to part of the the men's qualification for the respective office. And that makes total sense, as their ministry would have mainly occurred within their home life. And for an elder or deacon to have a wife of unsound character would also be a disqualifying situation, just like having children of bad character would.
@dougdoesit30132 жыл бұрын
The only other thing I would add is that I was taught in school that reformation hermeneutics had two principles, not the only two, but two out of several: A) Go with the clear meaning of the text. I am not a KJV only man. But the KJV is a good translation. And of the different versions it deals with this part of the text simply and clearly and the reading is natural to the flow of the text. What good reason do I have not accept that? Greek scholars have been working from that text for generations who did not see a problem with the reading that needed correcting. B) Scripture interprets scripture: Whenever the qualifications are raised in other passages, the selection is always a man. The qualifications are for men. Taken together I feel that gives weight to the KJV dealing with this text. As for the passages when deacon and a woman is used in the same sentence, is it really describing her office or her service? Is it being used as a title or as a description of her character as a worker? After all, women are excluded from the office of pastor teacher, but that doesn't prevent me from pointing to a particular woman and saying "among teachers there is none better." I haven't given her an office, but I have described her service. I have acknowledged her ability, but I have not defined the context of her service. If I did, and there are women who are good teachers, I would probably be describing her in her appointed role in: "teaching younger women to be discreet, chaste homemakers, obedient to their own husbands."

Consider this, what cultures are you aware of where women have more than one husband? I'm not aware of ANY. Consider this, it is also believed that Phoebe, the first person Paul mentioned in his closing in Romans 16.1, was the person who carried the letter to Rome. The letter carrier, was also the person who read the letter to the Church and then answered questions from the church after it had been read. So then Phoebe, would have had the responsibility of answering all their questions about what we consider to be a doctrinal treasure for Christianity. In Paul's place. Just sit with that for awhile. I do believe that discipleship is always gender specific. Men to men and women to women. I also object to children's ministry being relegated to women only. I think it's critically important that children see women and men in that role.

I know you posted two years ago, but for others: your historical knowledge of this is very limited if you think there were only female deacons in the 19th and 20th century. Female deacons were in the Church from the very beginning and are attested to by the earliest church fathers, giving rules and regulations for them and reasons for their service. Ultimately the office of deaconess fell into disuse by the 13th century, mainly due to the fact that their primary ministry had become baptism of adult females, and with the change to infant baptism and the fact that there were few adult females who were pagan or of other religions to be baptized, there wasn't any reason left for them, in the eyes of the church.

People who hold the “deaconess view” often say “then why does it not mention the wives of elders if it’s talking about the wives of deacons?” It would not need to mention the wives of elders, since women cannot hold the position of elder in any manner, we cannot teach the congregation, we must be silent, learning in all submissiveness and even asking our husbands when we have questions. Unlike the wife of an elder, the wife of a deacon would be assisting him in his ministry. Deacon mean servant. Servant doesn’t mean Deacon.

@@xmurrcattx3498 You are merging two offices into one. There is a clear dinstinction. In studying the New Testament passages, it becomes clear that the type of servanthood given to the deacons has an emphasis on the physical needs of the people of God. We see this in Acts 6:1-6, where seven men were chosen to provide food for the Greek-speaking widows in the Apostolic church. The Apostles, who in some ways serve as the pattern for the ministry of the elders, were left to focus on the ministry of the Word and on prayer. So, we see in the church that the elders are tasked chiefly with attending to the spiritual needs of the people of God and the deacons are appointed to deal with the physical needs of the saints. Of course, this does not mean that the elders never deal with physical needs or that deacons never address spiritual needs; rather, we are speaking of emphasis. Deacons primarily care for people physically and elders primarily care for people spiritually. The Apostles appointed Deacons to serve the Widows, so that they can continue to preach.

There's 168 hours in a week, God is saying if you're a woman then please be quiet for 3 or 4 hours while you're at church. The rest of the week is yours to go preach the good news, cast out demons and heal the sick. There's 144,000 people on the mount of olives with Jesus in the book of Revelation. They're all men. Why? Answer that, and you will answer why women should be silent, never preaching behind a pulpit. God bless.

Dear John Mc. Arthur, I,personally, cannot refrain from sincere thanks to you for biding your time and offering a hub of meaningful explications in aiding the understanding of Biblical passages and concepts. Yet as of this particular case, you appear to do the very contrary. That is, to "correct" The Holy Spirit by your loose and voluntary conjecture which you desire to present as a piece of Truth and ascribing as though it was genuinely meant in the Scripture. Let me kindly remind you, that THE TRUE SCRIPTURE was GENUINELY breathed by The Holy Spirit. The Holy Spirit needs neither correction nor assistance from those who regard themselves as ministers. What The Holy Spirit INDEED requires from those who think themselves to be ministers is OBEDIENCE and STRONG COMMITMENT, and nothing else besides. Therefore it would be great indeed if you stopped twisting the Scriptures to the Audience but go ahead. to further preach The Word faithfully and devotion-bent, exactly as His ministers should. Without creating confusion and obfuscation among the Audience.

Anyone with a Greek lexicon can see that. Stop worshipping a version of the Bible. You don't speak KJV dialect in your every day life, though I wish KJV-only types would), so why do you insist on reading an ancient dialect of English that you do not speak? And what would the KJV sound like if translated into Spanish, or Russian, or German, would the translators have to utilize a 500 year old dialect from each of those languages as well? MacArthur is not "correcting" the Holy Spirit, he is correcting the King James scholars. There's a difference. They were men, as fallible as any other. The world is weary of the false righteousness of the KJV-only pseudo-christians. Your preferred version confuses new converts with its inability to speak in the common tongue.

Correct, the Koine Greek has no plural for "wife." If you have a problem with that, take it up with the Greeks. It is no doubt because ancient Greek culture did not allow men to be married to more than one wife. If you had a group of men and wanted to use plural-possessive to talk about their "wives" (as we have in English) you would say, "Their women," and the ancient Greek would know exactly what you meant.

So you are saying women shouldn’t be deacons ? We know that God has ordained that only men are to serve in positions of spiritual teaching authority in the church. This is not because men are necessarily better teachers or because women are inferior or less intelligent (which is not the case). It is simply the way God designed the church to function. Men are to set the example in spiritual leadership-in their lives and through their words. Women are to take a less authoritative role. Women are encouraged to teach other women (Titus 2:3-5) though just not men and from the pulpit.

@@kennethnealKOGE no it’s clear God has given no instruction that women can’t be deacons in the church, men and women of all ages have taken their God-ordained places and lived according to “thus says the LORD,” then there is a wonderful balance between the genders. That balance is what God began with, and it is what He will end with. There is an inordinate amount of attention paid to the various products of sin and not to the root of it. It is only when there is personal reconciliation with God through the Lord Jesus Christ that we find true equality. “Then you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free” (John 8:32). It is also very important to understand that the Bible’s ascribing different roles to men and women does not constitute sexism. The Bible makes it abundantly clear that God expects men to take the leadership role in the church and the home. Does this make women inferior? Absolutely not. Scripture does not give much support to the idea of women serving as deacons, but it does not necessarily disqualify them, either. Some churches have instituted the office of deaconess, but most differentiate it from the office of deacon. If a church does institute the position of deaconess, the church leadership should ensure that the deaconess is in submission to the restrictions Paul places on the ministry of women in other passages (such as 1 Timothy 2:11-12), just as all leadership is to be in submission to the church authority structure and ultimately to our supreme authority, Christ Jesus.

@@kennethnealKOGE deary me ) The most important book in the OT is Genesis, in it we discover what God is like, how he created the world, how he relates to humanity, and what happened at the beginning. Genesis is the foundation on which Christian doctrine is built. This is certainly true when we come to 1 Timothy 2:11-15. Here we find Paul explaining his commands concerning a women's activity in the Christian gathering. His reason for not permitting women to teach or exercise authority over a man arises out of the account of creation and the fall. So before piecing together Paul's argument, one must look at the Genesis account. 1. In Genesis 1:28:28 "man" is made to rule the earth and all the creatures in it. Explain whether this refers to the male alone, or the male and the female ? Clearly v 26 refers to male n female. 2. So why was women created ? Gen 2:15-25. To compliment her man, neither stronger or weaker, a unity becoming one flesh. 3. So describe the authority relationship between God, Adam, the woman, and the rest of creation ? God created Adam then eve as Adams helper and both to rule over creation. 4. There are 3 cases of authority being overthrown in the passage Gen 3:1-19 And 3 sets of consequences, what are they ? A. Serpent is out of order and deceitful, consequences are enmity between satan n God, so therefore God will provide a head crusher. B) eve convinces Adam to eat the apple, consequence is childbearing pains, sorrow and husband will rule over you. C) Adam should have submitted to Gods Authority, consequences- he has to work hard to provide, hence much joy is removed. 5. So then read 1 Tim 2:11-15. Clearly man and women are EQUAL though have DIFFERENT qualities, but both are saved in the same way as they persevere in their faith to carry out the Lords calling in their life, one example being the unique of women in childbearing. 6. so what is the basis for Paul's command ? Creation ordinance >eternal principles>headship>submission within a church. Clearly the argument in 1 Timothy has 3 threads that have been picked up by Paul from Genesis: firstness, deception and the difficulties of childbirth. 1. Firstness v13 Paul says women have the position they do because Adam was formed first. "Firstness often carries connotations of authority in scripture, as it does in our own use of language eg prime minister simply means the "first minister". So what can be said is there is an order to creation, God could have created Adam simultaneously, but he didn't. He created Eve for Adam. She was created to be mans "helper" and was made perfectly suitable for the task. This is absolutely key to understanding her relationship to Adam. 2. Deception v 14 Gen 3:13 records the woman confessing "the serpent deceived me, and I ate" Adam is clearly not described as being deceived: RATHER, his sin is that he "listened to the voice of his wife and ate of the tree" 3:17.
@robmarshall9562 жыл бұрын
@@kennethnealKOGE So why is eves deception significant? Well Eve was deceived by one of the animals that God had made, OVER whom she was meant to be in dominion, refer to Gen 1:26:28. This was why she "became a sinner"-not because she was silly or gullible enough to be fooled, but Because SHE WAS DECEIVED into overturning the good order that God had created. Instead of ruling the snake under God, she listened to and Obeyed the snake, attempted to become like God and then lead her husband to do the same. Sooo as God pronounces judgment in Gen 3, the overturned order is emphasised in the way he deals first with the serpent, then with the woman and then with man. In the cursed and FALLEN world, the good order of chapter 2 becomes distorted and bitter- the serpent will attack the woman's offspring and be crushed under his heel; the woman will attempt to master the man, but he will be dominated by him instead; and the man, rather than ruling and tending a bountiful garden, will gain his food by sweat from a hostile earth. There is an order to Gods creation; there is a structure to the relationships between men and women that is built into the very fabric of things. God made Adam first and Eve to be his helper, and both to rule over the rest of the creation. The very essence of Adam and Eves sin was their overturning of this order yet here many are trying to do just that again ????? So before looking at the 3rd theme in Genesis (childbirth) review the first 2. Obviously when one compares Gen 2-3 with 1 Timothy 2, the relationship between the two passages is not difficult to see. Women are being warned NOT to upset the order of creation by usurping authority in the manner that Eve did. What we find more difficult to understand is why this should be expressed through teaching in the church, and what it is about teaching that makes Paul single it out as the authority issue, so do women have to be utterly silent and not say a word in Christian gatherings ?? The answer to that rests in our understanding of what "teaching" is. People tend to think of teaching as merely an intellectual activity- imparting knowledge or giving instruction to someone. However, in the Bible and indeed in other fields as well, teaching involves a special type of relationship between the teacher and the student. Christian teaching involves authority. The teacher moulds the life of the taught: the teacher is given the privilege and responsibility of guiding, informing, persuading, changing and leading. This is why teaching and authority are so closely tied together in 1 Tim 2:12. To be in a teaching relationship with someone is to be exercising some sort of Authority over him or her. Under Christ's authority, and through his word to us in 1 Tim 2:11-12, we are told that woman ought not to teach or have this authority over men. Teaching a man is wrong because by teaching him, the woman enters into a relationship of authority over him. By teaching the man, the woman is falling into Eve's error- turning the order of creation upside down. Teaching is the flip side of learning "quietly with all submissiveness" v11. Eve's sin involved overturning the order of creation and teaching her husband !!. Similarly, Adams sin came from listening to his wife in the sense of heeding and following her instructions. He allowed himself to be taught by her, thereby putting himself under her authority and reversing Gods good ordering of creation.

@@fredericklaudamoah-darko7530 amen.. ain't no way McArthur has blaspheme the holy spirit.. if a man blasphemy Gods holy spirit, that man will no longer care to even teach about sin.. McArthur would not teach sin and hell if he had blaspheme the holy spirit.. here's a way to know, for those who don't understand how someone blaspheme against Gods holy spirit, ok.. no man can blaspheme the holy spirit at all, if it's not the holy spirit in which he is referring too.. think about that.. they sat people like me and you are blaspheme against the holy spirit, but that's not true.. because that's NOT the holy spirit Making these people fall down and get hurt.. understanding that we all have to be very careful in such.. because holy spirit does jump on us.. what people lack knowledge of, is that the holy spirit doesn't act in a violent way.. Gods holy spirit doesn't cause people to fall on ground and shake violently.. holy spirit acts in a loving way, convicting way.. it makes some cry, some may run, some may shout.. but.. those who fall to the ground and shake violently.. better read scripture.. scripture says.. THEY ARE POSSESSED BY DEMON SPIRIT AND FALL TO THE GROUND FOAMING OUT OF THE MOUTH.. this scripture by itself proves that the holy spirit is not whom John McArthur has blasphemed.. you can't blaspheme the holy spirit if it's not in that man who is jerking and falling down.. those who fall and shake need the real holy spirit to deliver them of that demon.. and these preacher's will say, to the person who fell down shaking, the holy spirit is delivering that devil out of you right now in the name of Jesus christ.. and this is DECIEVING on a scale so large we can't even begin to think of.. these preacher's and those who follow them are in danger of hell fire for eternity.. because they look over 1 passage of scripture that warns them in detail that they will burn in hell for teaching about casting out demons, and teaching about healing and miracles being performed by these preacher's.. because God doesn't heal people according to how much money they give.. God does not performer miracles because of the money they give. God heals and does miracles when we pray in full faith that Gods will to be done and if it's his own will to heal. Then he heals us.. If it is not Gods will to heal or do the miracles, then he does not heal us and he does no miracle..even if we pray for it.. we know God does do miracles and God really does heal.. but. He warns us about falsely teaching these things.. God heals and he does miracles.. but God warns us that he doesn't do these thing in the way they teaching it.. he tells us.. it's his will or not.. it's not because the preacher said you are healed.. it's because God said so or didn't say so.. remember this verse of scripture next time someone says these preacher's are of God... because bible says... NOT EVERYONE WHO SAYS LORD, LORD, WILL ENTER THE KINGDOM OF GOD.. these preacher's will say.. DEAR LORD HAVE I NOT CAST OUT DEMONS IN YOUR NAME.. HAVE I NOT PROPHECIED IN YOUR NAME LORD, HAVE I NOT DONE, ALL THESE THINGS, IN YOUR NAME.... GOD SAYS TO THEM... DEPART FROM ME, YOUR WORKER OF INIQUITY/EVIL FOR I HAVE NEVER KNEW YOU.. brother they are going to be cast into the lake of fire for these teachings.. we know demons and healing and miracles and blessing are real.. but.. the gospel of Jesus christ is about teaching men how to avoid hell and be saved, then God will deliver such evil spirit out of the man through the gospel and prayer and laying hands in faith in Gods will to do so.. Bible even says in the last days.. miracles and healing will be real and it will happen in front of their own eyes, and they will believe it, because it happens in front of them.. but God warns us that the healing and miracles that they see in front of their eyes are not of God but they are from the devil.. the healing and miracles will become real in the last days and happen in front of them. DECIEVING MANY including the elect if possible... so God tells is in the last days, devil will do miracles and healing and people will think it's of God.. that's why God tells and warns us to read and understand his word, or you will be decieved in the last days.. I pray for these people.. because they think this is of God all because the preacher's have told them its true... God bless you brother..

Frankie, Your decernment is in serious trouble, I went through your scriptures that your trying to match up and you my friend are confused, if you could do 1% of the work John has done around the world Our Lord would put you there, but you have elected your self as a fault finder, John does not believe in woman in the pulpit, but deacons there is no doubt and if you have read all of the NT in Hebrew and Greek and know how to put them in there proper use, you wouldn't be saying what your saying - The Bible has 66 books but they are knitted together and tell the story and uncover Our Lord's thoughts, you can not pick out one scripture and claim it without the setting, background, geography and the PROPHECIES at appointed times, at appointed times scriptures pertain differently, and if you don't understand it you need to ask yourself why?? First and foremost pray for decernment spiritual

wow! I have once again learn do not place anybody close to a pinnacle or a pedestal. Everything I’ve heard Pastor, MacArthur preacher teacher has been very accurate in truth and most of the time in the spirit. However, this time I can say he is not in truth or spirit. I thought a recent comment that somebody made about him proclaiming women deacons might’ve been a mistake. Nope. I still listen to John because like I said he has a lot of truth. this is the biggest mistake. I’ve heard him say. What is astounding to me? This is how this Ahab/Jezebel spirit complex is taking over Christianity and will lead to the destruction of many souls. i’m really surprised. Very very surprised. I can’t say I’m disappointed though. Man on earth has all the truth. And if he did and did not have the spirit of the Lord, he’s probably Satan. I praise God for John stitching, but he could not be more wrong in this. There are some things you debate, but there are none that you change the meaning on.

Sounds like you're having trouble with what God's Word says due to your pride.

@@stephm5877 what spirit are you in when you say that? Like I said, don’t put your faith in a man…or woman. Trust in God the father, the Lord and the Holy Spirit. Then you may see the truth. Blind obedience to a man or institution is what crucified our Lord. It is that spirit that has killed millions…in the name of God! Saul followed blindly until Jesus made him completely blind until he humbled himself and found one of his intended victims. Pride cometh before a fall. And in my 63 years it (pride) always seems to be linked to some doctrine of man or devils.

@@stephm5877 the short answer is nope. But to elaborate, the Word and its intent match up and are very clear. These clear directions start in Genesis and carry to varying degrees through out most of the Bible. It amazes me that some (not all) of my brothers and sisters cannot see it. It is painfully obvious to some. I truly believe that for whatever reason they can’t is because God will not let them. I agree with your statement about pride but it applies to those that don’t want to or can’t see what is very clear instructions, examples and intent.

@dannpurvis you say a lot without actually saying anything. Are you saying you believe only men can be deacons? That's not what the Bible says.
