Of course we cannot help what sex we are born with-well not when I was placed here by G_d. G_d is the Creator of The Universe and all that it in it. When we play the L_rd G_d All Mighty, I think it is wrong. We are made in His Image, and if we are to be His Children, we must get to know Him and obey. If we deny he exists, Nature will teach us. If we can read, His Holy Word works very well. What can we offer Him when All belongs to Him? Look what He has done for all.

Judging by the comment posted on 21 Nov, by an anonymous person. The person making that post has no biblical refrence to support the statement, can't deny the fact that the bible says women are not to teach, but she feels that she knows better than the Appostils. The bible doesn't apply to her because she has no man in her life.
I would suggest not making an attack on the teachings of the bible. It might surprise you that the bible does support you in a way. Women are spoken of as having taught in the new testement. The issue at hand is teaching in a public capacity. As children I believe that we all learn from our mothers (if our mothers are good christian mothers). In Acts chapter 18 we read of a time when a man named Apollos was teaching diligently. Aquila and Priscilla (priscilla being a woman) took him to the side and taught him the word of God more perfictaly. In one of the letters writen by Paul to Timothy the same person to whom he told "I suffer not a woman to teach". He implies that Timothy learned his unfeigned faith from his mother and his grandmother. The idea here is not for the women to simply shut up, but to alow the preaching to be done by the male leaders in the Church. The bible tells us of many women strong in faith and knowledge of God's will and his word. By all means teach your children the word of god. What I submit to you is that you should study the word more carefully your self so that you don't mislead them. You want to help them find salvation not lead them to damnation. The fact that you say you are going to teach them just because they don't have a male rollmodle no matter what the bible says worries me. Because if you are willing to disregaurd the lessons taught to us in the bible because it doesn't fit what you've got going on in youre life, you may as well just disregaurd Christ all together. So I guess what I am trying to say is, you should first be the student. Learn the word of God more perfectly. Then teach youre children. The blind can't lead the blind. To say that you are willing to risk rejection from the Lord you are setting the same example for your children. Instead, lead by example and show them the kind of servent you can be for the Lord by keeping true to the word of God and not to the feeling you have for yourself as to what is right. As you stated The Jews rejected Christ. They rejected the word of God. They felt as though they were right too. That was a part of the point in Jesus Christ comming to us in the fisrs place. He came to reveal God's will more perfectly. We have the perfect will of God. Who amoung us has the authority to say that we are right and the word of God is wrong. In the first chapter of John we read that Christ is the word. How can we say we are following him, but say that his word doesn't apply because it doesn't fit in with what we've got going on in our lives? Christ said to deny ourselves and follow him. That means we have to let go of what we feel for ...

I believe that you are focused on the wrong things.You should first focus on teaching men to be men of God who are willing to stick by the family and not leave children fatherless.Then God will be able to use them as they avail themselves at home first.Women are just as gentiles who accept Christ when His own rejected Him. We women are the rocks that say "If I have to open my mouth in a man's silence then God still must get glory." I take the risk of rejection by standing in the gap for my children without a man, I can also stand where God needs me to stand. Please let God be glorified. Pray for the men. They need help to obey God so that they may be redeemed.
