"Women *Bishops*, where in the word?"

Posted at 10:30 PM on July 14, 2009

I have been pondering this for quite some time in my personal thoughts, and now FINALLY I have decided to come out and ask this question. BUT before I get started, I just want to let all my friends on all my networks know; by no means am I attacking anybody, but I just need someone to break this down to me. Many ponder the fact of women Apostles, which I am personally one, but it can be found in the Bible about many women Apostles that existed, and that also followed Jesus. But my struggle with women Bishops is that the Bible clearly states that this is an office of a "man". I was always taught by my teachers in school, there are no dumb questions, just the ones you don't ask. So I had to quickly come out of the dumb status! (lol) But seriously, there are many powerful women out there that call themselves "Bishops", and are doing a mighty work for the Lord, but I just question the title, it's just disturbs me everytime I hear a woman call herself a "Bishop". WAIT! Before you start getting upset with me, I am sincerely seeking to find a solid answer to this question! Some of you may call this judging, and I do agree with you, I am judging..with all rights according to the word of God. Then I could be totally wrong, maybe I missed something in the word of God concerning this, so please help a sista' out okay?? So let's look at it like this, if a man called himself a "Prophetess", Ladies how would you feel about that? Well, this is how I view the whole woman" Bishop" situation. God has been tugging at me about this for sometime now, to come out and talk about it. At first, I felt bad about it, because I feel like I am always among the ones to cause a stir out here on the internet. Well, it really doesn't matter, somebody has to bring topics like this forth, why not me? I am not here to make friends based on popularity, I desire to have divine relationships for no other reason the TRUTH!! So if any of you guys love me, please speak the truth concerning this topic. In closing, I also feel that maybe they misinterpreted the office, do you think possibly that these mighty women are really APOSTLES, and don't know it? But then again, the office of a BISHOP is a "desired" position, so that's a totally different topic, maybe we'll get into that later. You may ask, "Why is she so concerned with this?" Well, because we must be careful that we don't place words in the atmosphere that will produce unrighteous fruit, and cause us to step into roles designed by satan to "try" to change the divine order of God. (I will leave that right there, those who know what I mean, will catch what I am saying here with no problem) I think I've said enough, and thanks for reading, and when leaving me a comment, please support your view with scripture okay? Prayerfully this will prevent this discussion from turning into an arguement, and I repeat --"prayerfully"  .....But nevertheless, I am prepared for the total outcome of this discussion, to God be all the Glory, Amen.

There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither bond nor free, there is neither male nor female: for ye are all one in Christ Jesus.

2. Joel 2:28
And it shall come to pass afterward, that I will pour out my spirit upon all flesh; and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, your old men shall dream dreams, your young men shall see visions:
