8 Bible Verses about Role Of Women In The Church

Jehovah God said: It is not good for the man to be alone. I will make a helper suitable for him.

I would have you know, that the head (authority) of every man is Christ; and the head of the woman is the man; and the head of Christ is God. Every man who prays or prophesies having his head covered dishonors his head. But every woman who prays or prophesies with her head uncovered dishonors her head. She is the same as if she had her head shaved.read more.
For if the woman were not covered, let her also be shaved. But if it is a shame for a woman to have her head shaved, let her be covered. For a man should not cover his head, for he is the image and glory of God. But the woman is the glory of the man. For the man is not from the woman; but the woman is from the man. Neither was man created for woman but woman for man. That is why the woman should have a sign of authority on her head because of the angels. However in the Lord, both men and women exist together. Not one without the other. For as woman is from man, even so is man also from woman. But all things are from God!

Wives, be subject to your own husbands, as to the Lord. For the husband is the head of the wife, and Christ also is the head of the congregation, he being the savior of the body.

Likewise I want women to be adorned in modest clothing, with modesty and soundness of mind; not with braided hair, and gold or pearls or costly clothes; but that which becomes a woman professing godliness through good works. Let a woman learn in silence with all subjection.read more.
I do not permit a woman to teach or have dominion over a man, but to remain quiet. Adam was first formed and then Eve. Adam was not deceived, but the woman being deceived fell into transgression. She will be saved through her childbearing, if they continue in faith, love, and sanctification with sobriety.

Women in like manner must be serious, not slanderers, temperate, faithful in all things.

Let a widow be put on the list if she is under sixty years old, having been the wife of one man, having a good reputation for good works, if she has brought up children, if she has been hospitable to strangers, if she has washed the feet of the holy ones, if she has relieved the afflicted, if she has diligently followed every good work. Refuse younger widows: for when their sexual impulses come between them and Christ, they desire to marry.read more.
They have judgment, because they have rejected their first pledge. They also learn to be idle, going about from house to house; and not only idle, but gossipers and busybodies, speaking things that they should not. I desire therefore that the younger widows marry, bear children, rule the household, and give no occasion to the adversary for reviling.

Aged women likewise should be reverent in behavior and teachers of that which is good. They should not be slanderers nor enslaved to too much wine. They may train the young women to love their husbands, to love their children, to be sober minded, chaste, workers at home, kind, being in subjection to their own husbands, that the word of God will not be (defamed) dishonored.

In like manner, you wives, be in subjection to your own husbands. Even if your husband does not obey God's word, he may be won without a word by observing the way you live. Your husband could see your chaste behavior coupled with respect (reverence). Your appearance should not come from the outward adornment, things like braiding the hair, and wearing jewels of gold, or wearing fine apparel.read more.
Let your appearance be the hidden person of the heart, with the incorruptible apparel of a meek and quiet spirit. This is of great value in the sight of God. The holy women of old, who hoped in God, adorned themselves this way, being submissive to their own husbands. Sarah obeyed Abraham and called him lord. You are her children now, if you do what is right and are not fearful.
