Some of the early church's famous leaders, scholars, and benefactors were women, but many modern historians ignored this, but enthusiastic researchers still find a rich history I can.
Women are the last disciple of the cross, the first disciple of the sky's tomb. They have been an integral part of the work of the church for centuries. Catherine Kroeger gathers a series of historical stories about the impressive stories of women in the early church.
One of the most conservative secrets of Christianity is the major role women play in the early church.
Although they have not yet made it clear, Christian and secular writers of the time repeatedly showed women's important participation in the early growth of Christianity.
Celsus, the desolated devotee of the 2nd century, once laughed at the church because he attracted only "foolish, mean stupid, stupid women and children". His modern bishop, Carthage Cyprus, in his testimony acknowledged "There are so many Christian girls" and it is difficult to find all the Christian husbands. These comments will provide us with a disproportionate church picture for women.
why? One of the reasons may be the act of exposing unnecessary woman's baby. Of course, Christians refuse this custom, so there are more living women.
Furthermore, at the cutting edge of society, women often convert to Christianity, while relatives of men are still infidels, they do not lose the status of the Senate. This also leads to too many women in the church, especially women of the upper class.

In raising the question of whether today's church can deviate from the attitudes of Jesus and the apostles, the sacred congregation examines various discussions and agrees with the positive answer to this question.
According to tradition, the history of the Catholic Church began with the continuation of the early Christian community established by Jesus Christ and His teachings (4 BC - 30 AD), Jesus. The church considers the bishop a successor to Jesus' apostle and believes it to be the leader of the church Roman bishop (also known as the pope) is the bishop of Rome, who served in Rome in the first century after his appointment It is the only successor. Jesus is the church leader. By the end of the second century CE the bishops began gathering at local meetings to solve the problem of doctrine and policy. By the 3 rd century AD, Roman bishops began working as appellate courts for problems that other bishops could not solve.
Jesus deliberately affirms and includes women. From Lydia and Tabitha to Phillip 's daughter, we saw this continuation in the early church. The New Testament categorizes many of the roles of women in the early church as a controversial story to theology, the butler, the leader of the church, the teacher of the prophet, and even the female apostles called junior. In Paul's work there are two special clauses that seem to be against all of these, but by instructing some people to keep silent and forbid others to accept teachings . Paul himself provided guidance to women with public prophecies and confirmed women like Priscilla
