The perfect example was shown soon after the gentile believers were added to the Jewish followers of Christ.  Why has this church so carefully refused to admit that the first apostles in the church gave the perfect answer to settling differences that were no longer important.  When Christ instructed the woman from Samaria to go to her people and  report what she had heard, He was sending a female apostle; when Mary at the tomb saw Jesus after the Resurrection, she was the first to go spread the Good News.  

Now, modern, well-educated Seminary graduates are not considered equal to their male colleagues solely because of their sex, that does not comport with Jesus' action while here on earth.

Hasn't the church deceived the many young women who have been encouraged to attend the seminary and then when they graduate with their male colleagues,                              they suddenly have lost status.
