  • Kid Preachers Pulpit-Bound by Divine Inspiration, They Say

    It doesn't make sense to me how we think that we can just change what the Biblbe says about things to suit our own lusts. I'm pretty sure that the Bible specifically states in 1 Timothy chapter 3 that the office of Pastor is to be held by the "husband of one wife," "ruleth well his own house", "having his children in subjection", and "not a novice." Sounds to me like this rules out alll women and children.
    As far as the argument about Jesus beginning His ministry when He was 12, I don't think that this is a valid reason (even if one were to accept it as true) to disobey what Paul clearly taught. Even if Jesus di begin His ministry when He was 12 (which many would argue that He did not start until He was 30), this does not mean that we should do it. Sure, He was/is the perfect example for us, but He also walked on water, healed the lame, and controlled the weather. We can never do all that Jesus did.
