Why Are Women in Ministry under Attack?
Why are the Paula Whites of the church under siege? Why do the pious piranhas of male religiosity attack and reject women in ministry? The answer is at once shocking, fascinating and yes, encouraging. Why did a roomful of men turn their chairs so as not to face a message by Billy Graham's daughter? The macho stupidity that has characterized today's male-dominated religious system stinks to high heaven—and comes from the pit of hell. While the spirit of love and forgiveness must reign, it is time for the women of the church to rise up and walk in their anointing. "Rise Up, Women of God" is adapted from a chapter in Peace or Rejection —You Choose, and could also be entitled, "Why are the Paula Whites of the Church Under Attack? Read Rise Up, Women of God!

Women are more open to attack from men because they are strong warriors against the kingdom of darkness. Men like to protect the darkness.

Women come under attack because men are jealous and cannot stand anyone wanting to do better any man could do.

God never said to make a woman a priest or a pastor, therefore they should not be allowed to preach anywhere.

Re: Why Are Women in Ministry under Attack?
Pattie, Your comment is as bias and unloving as Ted F's. Men and women who are insecure use accusations and blame and even inuendos to cover up their lack of identity in Jesus. I strongly suggest that you learn who Jesus is and what he was teaching. Then find out who you can be when you accept your identity in Jesus.

Re: Why Are Women in Ministry under Attack?
My brothers friend Eddy says that most women are witches and therefore should not be allowed anywhere near a pulpit. Could this be the source of why women in ministry are attacked so much?

Tom,
This prejudice is only one source of the persecution of women in ministry.

Re: Why Are Women in Ministry under Attack?
Satan wants to destroy women because they were the ones prophecied by God to crush the head of Satan, women in general but also the "church as the woman, the bride of Jesus" as a whole. Women need the protection of men because of his strength and authority in Jesus and men also need the protection of the woman because of her ability to percieve Satan's attacks, which through my experiences have proven to be more acute than a man's. Men tend to tolerate Satan's shinanigans more than women do generally speaking. The reason so many women turn to witchcraft is because men haven't learned to love and guide their wives (and daughters) properly.

Ted F,
Women were the first ones Jesus sent out do declare the news that Jesus had risen, while the apostles were still grieving His death....
