WOMEN CAN'T BE PASTORS
By: doug Date: January 21, 2026, 10:08 am
---------------------------------------------------------
[1 Timothy 3:1 KJV] "This [is] a true saying, If a man desire
the office of a bishop, he desireth a good work.".........a
bishop is an overseer, an elder, in the church. We would call
them pastors. A women can't meet the qualifications set out in
scripture to be a bishop.
[1 Timothy 3:2 KJV] "A bishop then must be blameless, the
husband of one wife, vigilant, sober, of good behaviour, given
to hospitality, apt to teach;"
[Titus 1:5 KJV] "For this cause left I thee in Crete, that thou
shouldest set in order the things that are wanting, and ordain
elders in every city, as I had appointed thee:"
[Titus 1:6 KJV] "If any be blameless, the husband of one wife,
having faithful children not accused of riot or
unruly.".........In both Timothy and Titus, a bishop must be a
husband. A women can't be a husband and therefore is
disqualified from holding that office.
[1 Timothy 3:4 KJV] "One that ruleth well his own house, having
his children in subjection with all gravity;"
[1 Timothy 3:5 KJV] "(For if a man know not how to rule his own
house, how shall he take care of the church of
God?)".........Both of these verses say a bishop has to be one
who rules HIS own house well. They both place this obligation on
men NOT women. This passage also asks "how shall HE take care of
the church of God?" which limits that office to men.
[1 Timothy 3:6 KJV] "Not a novice, lest being lifted up with
pride he fall into the condemnation of the devil.".........This
restricts a bishop as being a man who is a novice, new to the
faith.
[1 Timothy 3:7 KJV] "Moreover he must have a good report of them
which are without; lest he fall into reproach and the snare of
the devil.".......... HE must have a good report, lest HE fall
into reproach: there is no accommodation for women.
[Titus 1:9 KJV] "Holding fast the faithful word as he hath been
taught, that he may be able by sound doctrine both to exhort and
to convince the gainsayers."..........HE must hold fast the
Word, not he and she, not she. There are strictly confined
parameters of who can be a bishop and there are no exemptions or
provisions for a woman to occupy the office of a bishop in the
church.
[1 Timothy 2:12 KJV] "But I suffer not a woman to teach, nor to
usurp authority over the man, but to be in silence."..........If
a woman claims the office of a bishop she would be usurping the
authority God gave to men to occupy that office. God determines
how he sets the church in order. Not placing women in the role
of a bishop is not a slight toward women. God sets
responsibilities and our roles as he sees fit. A women has a
function in the church that was only prescribed for her to
fulfill.
