Pastor Melissa Scott Ph.D
Pastor Melissa Scott, in an excerpt from her full one-hour plus teaching on what the Bible really says about women speaking in the Church, notes that on the day of Pentecost, the Holy Spirit and His attendant Gifts, including speaking in tongues, fell on everyone in the upper room. Yes, even the women. As it was clear that Paul spoke to a specific group of women at Corinth, and that Jesus sent Mary Magdalene as the first evangelist with the Gospel, so it is clear that God the Father makes no distinction between men and women in the giving of His gifts. Foolish men may try to box God in, but the Truth is the Truth whether one likes it or not.
