1 Corinthians 11:12
"For as the woman is of the man, even so is the
man also by the women; but all things of God"
Here we have the beginning of particulars respecting the public assemblies. In the abundance of spiritual gifts bestowed on the Corinthians, some abuses had crept in, but as Christ did the will and sought the honor of God so should we do the same. Even in the way we dress and our habits, that may dishonor Christ.
The women was made subject to man, because God made women to be help and comfort to man. She should not do anything that looks like a claim of being equal. However, a women should have power, (ie) the reason for the veil on their head, was because of the angels. Their presence would keep Christians from all that was wrong while in the worship of God.
Nevertheless, the man and the women were made for each other. They are to be mutual comforts and blessing, not one a slave, and the other the master. God has settled matters, both in the kingdom of providence and that of grace, that the authority and subjection of each party should be for mutual help and benefit. It is common in churches, for women to appear in public assemblies and be part of the public worship. Let me close with this; "Men, women was not created to be second best! And if you marry, remember it is a union with her and God. A women is not to be set aside and told just to listen! God gave them ears, mouth and a brain the same as man, so just maybe it's time for them to pick up their man and help Him in his walk with God! 1 cor 11:16 tells us that no man should have contentious in or out side of God's Church.
Amen!!
