Can a Sister Teach?

The Church is a body of people, not an actual physical building in the earth:

1 Peter 2:5

Ye also, as lively stones, are built up a spiritual house, an holy priesthood, to offer up spiritual sacrifices, acceptable to Alahayim by Yache Christ.
1 Corinthians 12:12

For as the body is one, and hath many members, and all the members of that one body, being many, are one body: so also is Christ.
Ephesians 2:18, 20-22

For through him we both have access by one Spirit unto the Father. 20 And are built upon the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Yache Christ himself being the chief corner stone; 21 In whom all the building fitly framed together groweth unto an holy temple in the Lord: 22 In whom ye also are builded together for an habitation of Alahayim through the Spirit.

1 Corinthians 12:13-14

For by one Spirit are we all baptized into one body, whether we be Jews or Gentiles, whether we be bond or free; and have been all made to drink into one Spirit. 14 For the body is not one member, but many.

Knowing this, the church setting can be wherever the members of the Body gather, like a home for example:

Rom 16:5

Likewise greet the church that is in their house. Salute my wellbeloved Epaenetus, who is the firstfruits of Achaia unto Christ.

Seeing as though the church is a people, wherever they gather in the name of the Lord, he is in the midst:

Mat 18:20

For where two or three are gathered together in my name, there am I in the midst of them.

In general, women are not permitted to teach in the church setting:

1 Timothy 2:11-12

Let the woman learn in silence with all subjection. 12 But I suffer not a woman to teach, nor to usurp authority over the man, but to be in silence.

They also keep silence in the church setting:

1 Corinthians 14:33-35

For Alahayim is not the author of confusion, but of peace, as in all churches of the saints. 34 Let your women keep silence in the churches: for it is not permitted unto them to speak; but they are commanded to be under obedience, as also saith the law. 35 And if they will learn any thing, let them ask their husbands at home: for it is a shame for women to speak in the church.

If they will learn anything in the church setting they are to ask their head of household, whether husband or fathers in the faith at home. For unmarried women who have no faithful covering, they ask the ministers of the church privately outside of the church setting so to avoid the shame of speaking in the churches.

The women’s ministry in the faith to convert unbelievers is to do the following:

1 Clem 21:6-7

…Let us guide our women toward that which is good. 7 let them show forth their lovely disposition of purity; let them prove their sincere affection of gentleness; let them make manifest the moderation of their tongue through their silence; let them show their love, not in factious preferences but without partiality towards all them that fear Alahayim, in holiness.

1 Peter 3:1-2

Likewise, ye wives, be in subjection to your own husbands; that, if any obey not the word, they also may without the word be won by the conversation of the wives; 2 While they behold your chaste conversation coupled with fear.

There is nothing wrong with praying or singing songs in one’s heart in the church setting:

Ephesians 5:19-20

Speaking to yourselves in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing and making melody in your heart to the Lord; 20 Giving thanks always for all things unto Alahayim and the Father in the name of our Lord Yache Christ;

During praise and worship everyone sings as well:

Colossians 3:16

Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly in all wisdom; teaching and admonishing one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing with grace in your hearts to the Lord.

Women do teach their own children to bring them up in the fear of the Lord; they just don’t teach them in a church setting. Men teach themselves first to walk in the faith, then their wives so they can have an example to follow along with the understanding being imparted unto them and bring up the children in the nurture of the Lord, going after their husband's mind in the law as the men would have them to go:

Polycarp to the Philippians 4:1-2

But the love of money is the beginning of all troubles. Knowing therefore that we brought nothing into the world neither can we carry anything out, let us arm ourselves with the armor of righteousness, and let us teach ourselves first to walk in the commandment of the Lord; 2 and then your wives to walk likewise according to the faith that is given to them; in charity and in purity; loving their own husbands with all sincerity, and all others alike with all temperance; and to bring up their children in the instruction and fear of the Lord.

Women likewise ought to learn to walk in the faith themselves first, before trying to teach another, lest they be an hypocrite in the sight of the nations:

Luke 6:41-42

And why beholdest thou the mote that is in thy brother's eye, but perceivest not the beam that is in thine own eye? 42 Either how canst thou say to thy brother, Brother, let me pull out the mote that is in thine eye, when thou thyself beholdest not the beam that is in thine own eye? Thou hypocrite, cast out first the beam out of thine own eye, and then shalt thou see clearly to pull out the mote that is in thy brother's eye.
Sirach 1:29

Be not an hypocrite in the sight of men, and take good heed what thou speakest.

Aged women, when they are in behavior as is becoming of holiness, outside of the church, setting they can teach the young women the following:

Titus 2:1-5

But speak thou the things which become sound doctrine: 2 That the aged men be sober, grave, temperate, sound in faith, in charity, in patience. 3 The aged women likewise, that they be in behaviour as becometh holiness, not false accusers, not given to much wine, teachers of good things; 4 That they may teach the young women to be sober, to love their husbands, to love their children, 5 To be discreet, chaste, keepers at home, good, obedient to their own husbands, that the word of Alahayim be not blasphemed.

The aged women who behave as is becoming of holiness can also exhort young men unto the following when outside of the church setting:

Titus 2:6

Young men likewise exhort to be sober minded.

They exhort young men but don’t usurp authority over them to teach them doctrine.

1 Timothy 2:12

But I suffer not a woman to teach, nor to usurp authority over the man, but to be in silence.

A mother has authority over her son in his youth, so she may teach him in his youth outside of the church setting:

Sirach 3:2

the Lord hath given the father honour over the children, and hath confirmed the authority of the mother over the sons.

As for a mother teaching her sons, she is their mother and has authority over them (Sirach 3:2) in their youth to instruct them and raise them up in the way they should go, so that they would not depart. (Pro 22:6) Yet when they are grown at age 15, they are now men, and a woman ought not to usurp authority over them (2 Tim 2:12) to teach them. Rather, the father or minister of the faith ought to do so, so that they may have the proper example of their mother keeping the commandments in faith. So a mother ought to set an example of a believer exhorting her sons who are now young men to be sober, while setting an example of a believer herself so that they can be won over by her chaste manner of living. And if the young men desire to learn, encourage them to go unto their father, if in the faith, or the ministers of the Church to submit themselves in humility to be edified in counsel from holy men that they know to keep the commandments. (Sir 37:12)

Understanding Sisters Teaching

This edification on sisters teaching is in regards to women teaching doctrine, not merely teaching in other areas of knowledge;

1 Peter 3:1-2

1Ti 2:12

But I suffer not a woman to teach, nor to usurp authority over the man...

Notice, a woman in the faith would win a man over by him beholding her manner of living (conversation) in the faith without the word, as it is not permitted unto her to teach him doctrine, lest she offend by usurping authority over him to teach him. When it comes to areas outside of doctrine on the other hand, it's not unseemly for a woman to teach a man if it's needful. A woman teaching a man to read, for example, is not unseemly to do, or helping men with advice when they are in need like Rahab did for the spies is not unseemly to do;

Joshua 2:1-4, 6-8, 12-16, 22

And Joshua the son of Nun sent out of Shittim two men to spy secretly, saying, Go view the land, even Jericho. And they went, and came into an harlot's house, named Rahab, and lodged there. 2 And it was told the king of Jericho, saying, Behold, there came men in hither to night of the children of Israel to search out the country. 3 And the king of Jericho sent unto Rahab, saying, Bring forth the men that are come to thee, which are entered into thine house: for they be come to search out all the country. 4 And the woman took the two men, and hid them, and said thus, There came men unto me, but I wist not whence they were: 6 But she had brought them up to the roof of the house, and hid them with the stalks of flax, which she had laid in order upon the roof. 7 And the men pursued after them the way to Jordan unto the fords: and as soon as they which pursued after them were gone out, they shut the gate. 8 And before they were laid down, she came up unto them upon the roof; 12 Now therefore, I pray you, swear unto me by Ahayah, since I have shewed you kindness, that ye will also shew kindness unto my father's house, and give me a true token: 13 And that ye will save alive my father, and my mother, and my brethren, and my sisters, and all that they have, and deliver our lives from death. 14 And the men answered her, Our life for yours, if ye utter not this our business. And it shall be, when Ahayah hath given us the land, that we will deal kindly and truly with thee. 15 Then she let them down by a cord through the window: for her house was upon the town wall, and she dwelt upon the wall. 16 And she said unto them, Get you to the mountain, lest the pursuers meet you; and hide yourselves there three days, until the pursuers be returned: and afterward may ye go your way. 22 And they went, and came unto the mountain, and abode there three days, until the pursuers were returned: and the pursuers sought them throughout all the way, but found them not.

As we see, she didn't usurp authority over them to teach them doctrine, as she just gave them her advice on the matter at hand as they were having a conversation with her, and things worked out well. When it comes to the scriptures and doctrine, a believing husband and believing wife discussing scriptures together outside of the church setting to get understanding and agree together, (Amos 3:3) so that she is after his mind in the law, (Sir 7:26) and goes in the way of Alahayim as he would have her (Sir 25:26) isn’t unseemly to do either;

Sirach 24:1

Wisdom shall praise herself, and shall glory in the midst of her people.

Sirach 25:1

In three things I was beautified, and stood up beautiful both before Alahayimand men: the unity of brethren, the love of neighbours, a man and a wife that agree together.

Amos 3:3

Can two walk together, except they be agreed?

A man and his wife have to converse to get on the same page, as he has to teach her, and she has to ask her questions at home with him to learn to go in the way he would have her in agreement;

Hebrews 13:16

But to do good and to communicate forget not: for with such sacrifices Alahayim is well pleased.

Polycarp to Philippians 4:1-2

...and let us teach ourselves first to walk in the commandment of the Lord; 2 and then your wives to walk likewise according to the faith that is given to them;..

1Co 14:35

And if they will learn any thing, let them ask their husbands at home: for it is a shame for women to speak in the church.

Those conversations to help her understand doctrine and get on the same page will be profitable by evidence of the fruit it will bring forth in her:

Sirach 26:14

A silent and loving woman is a gift of the Lord; and there is nothing so much worth as a mind well instructed.

Sirach 36:23

If there be kindness, meekness, and comfort, in her tongue, then is not her husband like other men.
