Is it really a cultural issue if the angels are concerned with it, and if the creation ordinance is reintroduced? What if women never pray or prophesy at the church?

And, why did the practice disappear when the feminists showed up in 1960?   Download the episode MP3 here: https://traffic.libsyn.com/forcedn/generationsradio/gr20250528.mp3
