In response to an anti-scriptural, belittling, and sexist comment someone made, in attempt to discredit scriptural truth: Jehovah's Witness women ARE to be PREACHERS and TEACHERS to THE PUBLIC, and to THEIR CHILDREN.
At Pentecost 33, Jehovah's spirit was poured out upon BOTH men AND WOMEN. Further, there is this [manifesto]: “‘In the last days,’ God says, ‘I shall pour out some of my spirit upon every sort of flesh, and your sons and your DAUGHTERS will prophesy and your young men will see visions and your old men will dream dreams; and even upon my men slaves and UPON MY WOMEN SLAVES I will pour out some of my spirit in those days, AND THEY WILL PROPHESY.’” (Acts 2:17,18; see Joel 2:28,29)
The Bible NAMES some women who preached, as well as men.
The Scriptures referring to women not teaching ARE REFERRING TO THE SETTING OF CHRISTIAN MEETINGS, in which men take the lead in instructing the congregation. (1Timothy 2:11,12; 1Corinthians 13:33,34) Women still contribute valuably to these meetings, by commenting, etc.
Yes indeed [referring to the SPIRITUAL "war"]:
"Jehovah himself gives the saying;
The women telling the good news are a large army.
Even the kings of armies flee, they flee.
As for her who abides at home, she shares in the spoil." (Psalm 68:14)
