The egalitarian move 'prophecy involves teaching, therefore all teaching is acceptable, therefore prophecy equals eldership' blurs God-given distinctions

Things I Didn't Know as a Complementarian: Women in Ministry part 6 01:20:16 – 01:21:16

Mike warns against the slippery-slope reasoning some egalitarians use.

If the argument is that a woman can teach only when she has direct revelation from God (since that is the nature of prophecy), then outside that context the argument falls apart. The soft complementarian view fits the data: women can share a prophetic word in mixed settings, but this should not blur into the eldership title or function.
