Calculus Wa T Mangoh Here is a small sample of scriptural principles that confirm male leadership in the church: • From the garden of Eden, God established male leadership within the family and church (Genesis 3:16; 1 Timothy 2:13). • While the Lord called the entire nation of Israel to be a kingdom of priests, only men were appointed to serve as priests for the sanctuary (Exodus12:3; 29:10; 1 Peter 2:9). • While men and women were both called as prophets, only men ever offered sacrifices (Leviticus 1:7, . • Only men were anointed by God to serve as kings of Israel and Judah. • “I want you to know that the head of every man is Christ, the head of woman is man, and the head of Christ is God” (1 Corinthians 11:3). • Pastors, elders, and bishops should be “husband of one wife” (Titus 1:6; 1Timothy 3:2). • While Jesus engaged women to share the gospel, He called only men to serve in the capacity of apostle. When Judas died, his replacement was chosen from among men (Mark 3:14; Acts 1:21).
