Re: Why not Women?
by Mike McLoughlin
Wright is not the only theologian making this case. Gordon Fee, from which I took a course on Biblical Exegesis, also believes that this passage does not prohibit women from pulpit ministry. (See his book Gospel and Spirit). I read my Bible, weigh the arguments of the experts and draw my conclusions. Wright and Fee make a much better case for interpreting that passage in the light of the whole gospel which does not prescribe gifting on the base of gender. Gender ought not to be an issue when it comes to pulpit ministry. The church needs as many gifted men and women as possible to proclaim the good news. We need to move on from such debates. It is not helpful for being “together for the gospel”.
