WOMAN'S PLACE IN SPIRITUAL THINGS .
It is written, --The Lord gave Happy Tidings: they are Published by the Female Messengers , a Numerous Host . Ps. 68-12 ;
Holy Men are Ordained of God by POSITION to set forth the Divine Idea. To set forth the Divine Truth AS GOD GIVES IT.
Holy Women are Ordained of God by CAPACITY, to grasp the TRUTH with understanding, to Believe it, to acquire it into actual possession, to exhibit it, to hold it forth, to testify to its REALITY, AND TO PRESENT IT FOR OTHERS ACCEPTANCE. From the time Deborah was a Prophetess and Judge in Israel, to the time of Anna the Prophetess in the time of our Lord, and Mary of Magdala, the first of the Women at the Tomb of our Lord on His Resurrection Morning, to the present time, GOD has always Honored Holy, Capable and Righteous Women.
