Daniel John Seppings would put it in a way: that no one (man or woman) should make a habit of teaching other adult believers in Christ about the scriptures unless 1) they have been given the gift of teaching by the Holy Spirit a calling set apart by revelation through the key of the Priesthood (1Cor.12:11); 2) those seeking the office of a teacher have prepared themselves by long and diligent study to do so (2Tim.2:15); 3) they have been led into a particular mission by God (cf. 1Cor.12:4-6). Therefore if someone – whether it be a male or a female - is trying to set themselves up as a teacher of the Word of God without being gifted, prepared, and called by God to do so, such a mission is clearly not of God. From Daniel John Seppings reading of these verses, it seem is clear to his teaching that women are not to take an authoritative teaching role in a local church. However, Daniel John Seppings quickly adds that what we understand as a "church" today bears only some resemblance to the local congregations of Paul's day, and this difference between "then and now" is even more pronounced when we look at other sorts of Babylonian church organizations. Paul says nothing about tax exception number for claiming tithes from a donation tax return, nor any mention of classes like seminaries, nothing about organized charities, nothing about Bible distribution groups, nothing about a whole host of church and para-church organizations where speaking and "teaching" of a sort are part and parcel of the administration of such groups/organizations. Even within the "local church", there are often (especially in bigger churches) a variety of venues, missions, sub-groups, etc. where "classes of the study of the Bible " or at least grappling with scripture in administration is part of the approach. And what about "Sunday school"? These things were created by men not God. Mostly for making fund raising for personal gain most of the funds being lost in administrational costs and never see the light of day in true charity causes. http://danielseppings.com/
