Woman President Is Not The Answer

Philippine People Power is sometimes referred to as the Yellow Revolution due to the presence of yellow ribbons during the arrival of Ninoy Aquino.

These protests were the culmination of a long resistance by the people against the 20-year running authoritarian regime of then current president Ferdinand Marcos and made news headlines as "the revolution that surprised the world".

The protests, fueled by a resistance and opposition of years of corrupt governance by Marcos, occurred from February 22 to 25 in 1986, when Marcos fled to the United States and conceded to Corazon Aquino as President of the Philippines.

When you look at Philippines today, one may say, people power is not really the answer.

Who wants people power or parliament on the streets when people in authority are righteous.

Proverbs 29:2 When the righteous are in authority, the people rejoice; But when a wicked man rules, the people groan.

Presently, we have a woman president under Gloria Macapagal Arroyo and still people groan.

In our Church, women are not permitted to teach or rule over us.

1 timothy 2:11 Let the woman learn in silence with all subjection.

1 timothy 2:12 But I suffer not a woman to teach, nor to usurp authority over the man, but to be in silence.

1 timothy 2:14 And Adam was not deceived, but the woman being deceived was in the transgression.

They are not permitted to rule because they will cause us to err. The scriptures has something to say about women, children and babes being the ruler.

Isaiah 3:12 As for my people, children are their oppressors, and women rule over them. O my people, they which lead thee cause thee to err, and destroy the way of thy paths.

Isaiah 3:4 And I will give children to be their princes, and babes shall rule over them.

Isaiah 3:5 And the people will be oppressed, Each one by another, and each one by his neighbor; The youth will storm against the elder And the inferior against the honorable.

Will a man ruler stops the groaning? May be not, but, it is better to be under God's preference.

1 Kings 8:25 Therefore, LORD God of Israel, now keep what You promised Your servant David my father, saying, ‘You shall not fail to have a man sit before Me on the throne of Israel, only if your sons take heed to their way, that they walk before Me as you have walked before Me.

2 Chronicles 7:18 then I will establish your royal throne as I covenanted with your father David, saying, 'You shall not lack a man to be ruler in Israel.'

Admittedly, I want a man to rule, hope the woman not offended, it's because my God wants it to be.
