We need men possessed by a holy ambition for all of life. In 1 Timothy 3:1, Paul states, "It is a trustworthy statement: if any man aspires to the office of overseer, it is a fine work he desires to do." There is a logical progression to Paul's thoughts in all of his letters, including 1 Timothy. He concludes chapter 2 with some general exhortations for both sexes on how they ought to conduct themselves in the worship service. Men are to pray without anger and dissension, and women are to dress and behave modestly. Then, in 2:13, Paul says, "I do not allow a woman to teach or exercise authority over a man, but to remain quiet." This is one of the places where Scripture is especially clear that women aren't to hold authoritative positions in the church.
Let's go!
