Hansen, the ordination of women as deaconesses or elders is never subservient to the ministers or other officers of the church, because they are never less important in their roles to the church's overall function. This is the point I was making but which you totally missed; therefore, it was not a strong argument contra my position, but pro. 
I'm not arguing that women have served the church at all.....my point that you missed is that women have been ordained to the pastorate in the past and should continue to be. No where in the Bible does it say, "Thou shalt not ordain a woman to the pastorate of My church, for in the day thou dost, it will be to the spiritual detriment of the congregation." Just because God gave the 10 Commandments to Moses over 2,800 years ago, doesn't make them any less important today, does it? Your final statement is invalid; God will use women He chooses, when He appoints them, in whatever time period, regardless of male opinions to the contrary.
