Should I Leave A Church With A Woman Pastor - With Bible Verses

Question: Should I leave a church with a woman pastor?

The answer to this is very simple, because the Lord Jesus Himself is vehemently against it.

In Revelation 2:20-23

²⁰ Nevertheless I have a few things against you, because you allow ^[b]that woman Jezebel, who calls herself a prophetess, to teach and seduce My servants to commit sexual immorality and eat things sacrificed to idols. ²¹ And I gave her time to repent of her sexual immorality, and she did not repent. ²² Indeed I will cast her into a sickbed, and those who commit adultery with her into great tribulation, unless they repent of their deeds. ²³ I will kill her children with death, and all the churches shall know that I am He who searches the minds and hearts. And I will give to each one of you according to your works.

Woman Pastor Perform A Form of Ashera/Ashtoreth Worship

The Lord speaks about that woman, Jezebel. It's important here to realize that the Lord Jesus could have just said Jezebel, because we both know that Jezebel is the queen of Israel who was King Ahab's wife who usurped her husband's authority. 

This is exactly what the Apostle Paul talks about women doing when they teach and usurp authority over the men in the church, which is forbidden. So, the Lord Jesus says and speaks to that woman, Jezebel, who happened to be a worshiper of the goddess Asherah, (who transformed women into men and men into women), and He says that He will kill her children, and also that those who do not repent will be in danger of Great Tribulation. 

Should you leave a church that is led by a female pastor, or that has female pastors? The answer is yes, because it is in doing such things that the Lord deems a person unworthy to escape the tribulation, which is only given as a reward for believers who live worthily of the Lord. 

Because you have kept My command to persevere, I also will keep you from the hour of trial which shall come upon the whole world, to test those who dwell on the earth.

The second thing that's important here is that when the Apostle Paul was speaking in First Corinthians 14 and laying down the rules of orderly worship, forbidding women from having judgment and teaching roles in worship, he says, if any man or if any person deem themselves to be prophet or spiritual, let them acknowledge or recognize that the words that I speak are commandments of the Lord, and if they do not recognize this, then they themselves are not recognized. 

And I'm paraphrasing here.  Women in the pulpit and having judgment and teaching roles over men is such a serious issue that recognition by God is a core issue!

The Lord refers to people who don't do what He says as workers of iniquity. In fact, in Matthew to those particular people He says I never knew you or that He never recognized them using the same word agneo that Paul uses in reference to those that don't acknoweldge that woman preachers and female judges of prophesy/teachers in the House of God are forbidden.

Again, should someone leave a church that is led by a female pastor, or that has women pastors? 

The answer is a resounding yes, because scriptures, through and through, are against Asherah worship, which is what a woman pastor in the house of God would be doing, giving sacrifices to idols, which is what the false goddess Asherah would want. 

Churches With Women Pastors are Working Iniquity!

A woman in the pastoral role would have put on that which pertains unto the man, and the men sitting under her would likewise put on that which pertains unto to the woman in the House of God. This is Ashera worship. And this is expressly against Deuteronomy 22:5 

“The woman shall not wear that which pertaineth unto a man, neither shall a man put on a woman’s garment; for all who do so are abomination unto the Lord thy God.

The Contemporary English Version translated it like this: 

⁵ Women must not pretend to be men, and men must not pretend to be women.^[a] The Lord your God is disgusted with people who do that. (Deuteronomy 22:5)

Preaching, judgment of prophetic words, and Teaching to Both men and women is only given to biblically qualified men in the House of God according to 1 Corinthians 14, 1Timothy 2:12-14,1Timothy 3, Titus 1 and Titus 2:4-8
