Evidently the "dispensation" of female function passed. They were useful for the accretion of temporal, earthly power, then they were cast aside. Now they can be conveniently waved as props, and the next moment put in the drawer. Mesmerised, anyone? (Gal 3:1) How can the flock so passively & uncritically accept such blatant hypocrisy?

Most non-Catholics and denominations extol Luther as a leader in the history of the church but do not promote or recognize the institution of the monastery, its monks, or their way of life. Luther could not function as he once did in most of the current denominations and it is doubtful he would make it past the front doors for Sunday services even in those places named after him.

The local churches, in the Lords Recovery, are some of the few places that Luther could walk into, sit on the front row, robes and all, and stand up to speak and function. (Admittedly, nailing stuff to the front door of the meeting hall would be frowned upon.)
