A Touch From Above Ministries

God's Women Of Power
 
Women in ministry? The Bible is filled with powerful women of God.
  • In Romans 16:7, you hardly ever hear about Junia, especially about her being an outstanding Apostle.
  • Although some say that Junia was a man, the origin of Alexandria, (c.185-253) said the name was a variant of Julia, Romans 16:15, As does Thayer's Lexicon.
  • Leonard Swidler, Biblical Affirmations of Women (Philadelphia, PA: Westminister Press, 1979, page 342. He cited Jerome(340-419), Hattof Vercelli (924-961), Theophylack (1050-1108) and Peter Abelard (1079-1142), as believing Junia to be a woman.
  • Apparently the idea that Junia was man's name is relatively modern concept, but the bulk of the best evidence available is that Junia was indeed a woman and an outstanding apostle.
  • A common counter argument against any woman being an apostle is this: why didn't Jesus choose at least one woman among His apostles? Christ ministered primarily to the house of Israel, Matthew 15:24, he preached to Jews who were governed by both the Bible and the oral law. Jesus knew the oral law forbade women witnesses in both civil and religious matters.
  • Junia was not one of the twelve apostles; she was a New Testament church apostle as was the Apostle Paul.
  • Ephesians 4:8-11 tells us these apostles were not ordained until Jesus ascended, and their qualifications were vastly different than those governing the twelve.
  • You can also learn more at the Bible College, study to show yourself approved.
This is a vital subject to be explored.
  • There are over 6 billion people in the world today that need to be reached.
  • Do you think God cares who gets the job done?
  • Many women called of God are made to believe they cannot fulfill their God-given purpose.
  • Women in ministry have been ridiculed by their peers in ministry, both male and female.
  • Traditions of man have always, and will continue to hinder a great move of God.
  • The scribes and the Pharisees, although very educated and religious tried to hinder Jesus.
  • The harvest is plentiful and the laborers are few.
Be not ashamed!
