I enjoyed the OPC report titled "Women in Church Office" to which you linked. In their section on deacons they write, "Therefore we offer the following considerations in support of the position that Scripture does not authorize the ordination of women deacons." BTW, the OPC views the office of Deacon as a non-teaching office.
They note an 'analogical' relationship between Acts 6 and 1 Tim 3:8-13. They also see Paul's male headship rationale applying to both the office of elder and deacon.
So does your favorable opinion of the OPC report, represent a reversal of your previous position within this thread?
