I understand the argument for barring women from leading in prayer or exercising the gift of prophesying in church, since it is forbidden for women in public worship (1 Cor. 14.34-35)
In fact, the church I go to practices this very thing. Women are silent during the meeting (except when everyone is singing). Men preach, lead the prayer, etc.
However, this raises another question:
If women are barred from exercising the gift of prophesying in church, then under what conditions/circumstances are they not barred from it?
In other words, when it is Scripturally ok for a woman to exercise her gift of prophesying?
