Bible Passage (KJV): 1 Samuel 24:1-7

1 And it came to pass, when Saul was returned from following the Philistines, that it was told him, saying, Behold, David is in the wilderness of Engedi. 

2 Then Saul took three thousand chosen men out of all Israel, and went to seek David and his men upon the rocks of the wild goats. 

3 And he came to the sheepcotes by the way, where was a cave; and Saul went in to cover his feet: and David and his men remained in the sides of the cave. 

4 And the men of David said unto him, Behold the day of which the LORD said unto thee, Behold, I will deliver thine enemy into thine hand, that thou mayest do to him as it shall seem good unto thee. Then David arose, and cut off the skirt of Saul's robe privily. 

5 And it came to pass afterward, that David's heart smote him, because he had cut off Saul's skirt. 

6 And he said unto his men, The LORD forbid that I should do this thing unto my master, the LORD'S anointed, to stretch forth mine hand against him, seeing he is the anointed of the LORD. 

7 So David stayed his servants with these words, and suffered them not to rise against Saul. But Saul rose up out of the cave, and went on his way.

Bible Passage (KJV): 1 Peter 5:1-6 – (00:00)

QUESTIONS

Q1. So does it mean women should never teach in the church? Please explain. – (10:54)

Q2. What if a woman organises better, knows the church better, speaks better, nicer to talk to, and more caring? Is it not better for the sake of the church and congregation to appoint her as the pastor or ruling elder? – (32:22)

Q3. What if there were no suitable men in certain situations? – (46:39)

Q4. What if after extended period the men are still not growing? – (57:37)

Q5. What if you are asked to? And the other woman under consideration is worse? Should you try to save the church by ‘stepping up’? – (1:03:59)

Q6. Who chooses and appoints pastors and ruling elders into the church office? What should I learn from for myself? – (1:09:43)

====

Bible Passage (KJV): 1 Peter 5:1-6

1 The elders which are among you I exhort, who am also an elder, and a witness of the sufferings of Christ, and also a partaker of the glory that shall be revealed:

2 Feed the flock of God which is among you, taking the oversight thereof, not by constraint, but willingly; not for filthy lucre, but of a ready mind;

3 Neither as being lords over God's heritage, but being examples to the flock.

4 And when the chief Shepherd shall appear, ye shall receive a crown of glory that fadeth not away.

5 Likewise, ye younger, submit yourselves unto the elder. Yea, all of you be subject one to another, and be clothed with humility: for God resisteth the proud, and giveth grace to the humble.

6 Humble yourselves therefore under the mighty hand of God, that he may exalt you in due time:
