.Submitting Oneself unto Unbelieving and Unspiritual Husbands
1 Peter
3:1-2 Likewise,
ye wives, be in subjection to your own husbands; that, if
any obey not the word, they also may without the word be won
by the conversation of the wives; While they behold your chaste
conversation coupled with fear. (Before we offer an in depth examination of
this passage in the Greek and discover untranslated power
and meaning to this passage, we need to address the leaven
of rebellion both in our society and in the church at large
that has so harmed the Christian household in this hour.)
American culture was greatly altered
in the 1970’s from being a culture of law and order and from
American citizens feeling a deep sense of duty, honor, God
and country, -- into a faithless nation that today stands
against all authority whether it is from government, or from
God, or even from those who are in authority within their
own households.
When a nation loses its foundation
at the level of household and family – that nation and people
will meet a sudden and terrible destruction.
In like fashion when a church or denomination
loses its foundation at the level of household and family
– that church or denomination whether Evangelical, Fundamentalist,
Pentecostal, or Charismatic faces obliteration from the hand
of God Himself.
We live in such a time as this,
where both Europe, and in the United
States of America shall fail, and all of the corrupt churches
and denominations shall be trodden down. And we are speaking
here of not just old line denominational churches like the
Anglican Church, the Roman Catholic Church, and the Lutheran
Church but we are speaking of churches and denominations that
are bible believing churches and Spirit filled denominations
as a whole that shall be utterly destroyed as well.
It is an amazing and terrible thing when in a single
generation the Church (And we are speaking
here of Evangelicals, Fundamentalists, Pentecostals, and Charismatics) -- have exceeded the lost in fornication, have exceeded the
lost in divorce, have exceeded the lost in adultery, and now
have exceeded the lost in abortion. (News articles on these matters are available on this websites
News Archive)
One in five abortions in this nation last year were done by
people who declared themselves to be Evangelicals or Born
Again.
Who could have
ever imagined or believed that in the very churches that preach
and cry out the most about the coming judgment of God against
this nation because of abortion -- that within each and every
one of these congregations they would have multiple members
that have had and are having abortions?
Who
would have ever believed that in these same churches that
droves of single and divorced men and women are committing
fornication and adultery while at the same time trying to
keep up the charade that they are Christian and Godly church
going men and women? (And in many cases
the Pastors, Teachers and Elders winking at such brazen sin
so as to keep these in their congregations, so they can just
keep on receiving these people’s tainted tithes and offerings.)
Who
would have ever believed that in these churches that the underage
children in these churches youth groups are committing fornication,
and then with their mother’s and or father’s consent these
are receiving abortions, so that their family can keep up
the charade that they are a Christian and Godly church going
household?
It is a terrible thing when the nation becomes
so sinful, evil, rotten, corrupt, and perverse; but when those
who declare themselves to be the light of the world and followers
of Jesus Christ become even more evil, rotten, corrupt, and
perverse than those that are unsaved – there only remains
one thing for them -- the coming judgment of God, and warring
against all sin and ungodliness in their midst.
Hebrews
10:26-27 . . . There remaineth
no more sacrifice for sins,
(But only)
a certain fearful looking for of judgment and fiery
indignation, (From God Himself) which shall devour the adversaries (Of Jesus Christ’s
words and Commandments.)
Recently (A year ago) I joined a Christian online discussion
board a year ago. The
group was composed of some Calvinistic fundamentalists, a
large group of Spirit filled believers a few that said they
were preachers and the balance of which were old-line denominational
members.
It was some months later that
the Lord led me to begin a discussion that as Christians and
believers that we are to obey the Commandments and Words of
Jesus Christ. This entailing discussion revealed that a sizeable
number of these fundamentalists, and Spirit-filled believers, along with those that had identified themselves
as preachers did not in any way shape of form believe that
they had any obligations as Christians and believers to obey
the Words and Commandments of Jesus Christ.
The fact that those within this
group that would be been most associated with upholding the
word of God instead being in such open rebellion, and hostile
towards any notion of their of coming under the influence
and rulership of Jesus Christ and the obedience of His Words
and Commandments – was breath taking to say the least.
And I need to mention here, that
this was not an isolated incident. For in no less then three
other groups that I came into contact with over the last year,
I found the same rebellious sentiments and hostility though
not as brazen as the group mentioned above, against coming
under the influence and rulership of Jesus Christ through
obedience to His Words and Commandments.
Once a church, a denomination,
a fellowship or group depart from having their foundation
founded upon the rock of the word of God, and in most particular
the foundation of the Words and Commandments of Jesus Christ
– no matter how they describe their experiences and walk –
these have ceased from being Christian, they have ceased from
being believers and disciples of Jesus Christ. And have themselves
cut themselves off from any redemption and cleansing from
the blood of Jesus Christ.
How important are Christ’s Words and Commandments?
The Words of Jesus Christ
and His Commandments are what we are to live by and shall
be judged by as Christians and His disciples. If
His Words and Commandment are not found in us that is, in
our daily walk; then we shall be cast out as we have never
come into any intimate knowledge or any personal relationship
with Him.
We are now going to specifically look at the Words and Commandments
of Jesus Christ concerning, fornication, adultery, and divorce.
Matthew 5:31-32 It hath been said, Whosoever shall put away his wife, let him give her a
writing of divorcement: But I say unto you, That whosoever shall put away his wife, saving for
the cause of fornication, (Adultery, or if the unbeliever depart.) causeth her to commit adultery: and whosoever shall marry
her that is divorced committeth
adultery.
Matthew 19:8-9 He
saith unto them, Moses because of the hardness of your hearts
suffered you to put away your wives: but from the beginning
it was not so. And I say unto you, Whosoever shall put away his
wife, except it be for fornication, (Adultery, or if the unbeliever depart.)
and
shall marry another, committeth
adultery: and whoso marrieth her which is put away doth commit adultery.
Matthew 19:17-19 And He (Jesus) said unto
him, Why callest thou me good? there
is none good but one, that is, God: but if thou wilt enter into life, keep the commandments.
He
saith unto him, Which? Jesus said,
Thou shalt do no murder, Thou shalt not commit
adultery, Thou shalt not steal, Thou
shalt not bear false witness, Honour
thy father and thy mother: and, Thou shalt love thy neighbour
as thyself.
Romans 13:8-10 Owe no man
any thing, but to love one another: for he that loveth
another hath fulfilled the law. For this, (Paul after declaring earlier in Romans we are
not under law but under grace repeats the words of Jesus Christ.) Thou shalt not commit adultery, Thou shalt not kill,
Thou shalt not steal, Thou shalt not bear false witness, Thou
shalt not covet; and if there be any other commandment, it
is briefly comprehended in this saying, namely, Thou shalt
love thy neighbour as thyself. Love
worketh no ill to his neighbour: therefore love is the fulfilling of the law.
I Corinthians 6:8-10 Nay, ye do wrong, and defraud, and that your
brethren. Know
ye not that the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of God?
Be not deceived: neither fornicators, nor idolaters,
nor adulterers,
nor effeminate, nor abusers of themselves with mankind, Nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards,
nor revilers, nor extortioners, shall inherit the kingdom
of God.
(Be crystal clear
here: Not inheriting the kingdom means To not be saved, it is not some higher realm
or greater existence as many have preached this is all that
there is, this is all what we seek, this is the world to come.
This is why Christ said straight is the gate and narrow is
the way and few there be that find
life. This is in direct
contradiction to the broad way do anything you feel gospel
and life style that is preached as long as you go to church
pay your tithe and worship the Lord. The list above is a list
of disqualifications for salvation.)
Galatians 5:18-23 But if ye be led of the Spirit, ye are not under the law. Now the
works of the flesh are manifest, which are these; Adultery, fornication, uncleanness,
lasciviousness, Idolatry, witchcraft, hatred, variance, emulations,
wrath, strife, seditions, heresies, Envyings,
murders, drunkenness, revellings,
and such like: of the which I tell you before, as I have also told you in time past, that they which do such
things shall not inherit the kingdom of God. (Paul repeats this again. The list above is a
list of disqualifications for salvation.)
Hebrews 13:4 Marriage is
honourable in all, and the bed undefiled:
but whoremongers (Fornicators) and adulterers God will judge.
(Destroy)
James 2:10-12
For whosoever shall keep the whole
law, and yet offend in one point, he is guilty of all. For
he that said, Do not commit adultery,
said also, Do not kill. Now if thou commit no adultery, yet
if thou kill, thou art become a transgressor of the law. So speak ye,
(So
speak and teach these things)
and so do, (And
do them also) as
they (The obedient) that shall be judged by the law of liberty.
2 Peter 2:13-14, 17 And shall
receive the reward of unrighteousness, as they that count
it pleasure to riot in the day time. Spots they are and blemishes,
sporting themselves with their own deceivings
while they feast with you; Having eyes full of
adultery, and that cannot cease from sin; beguiling unstable souls: an heart they have exercised
with covetous practices; cursed children: -- to whom the mist of darkness (Eternal darkness
- Hell) is reserved for ever. (These verses are
an apt description of the broad populist doctrines and traditions
that bible-believing and Spirit filled Christians follow en
masse today – and what is awaiting such that so walk.)
We live in
an epidemic of adultery fornication divorce and abortion in
the church. – And
the reason we live in such an epidemic in the church is that
Christians of every stripe. Evangelicals, Fundamentalists,
Pentecostals, and Charismatics, have no foundation of the
rock of the Word of God in their life. Most believers that
I have met have never once read the bible cover to cover.
They have come to believe that if they mumble a few words
about accepting Christ in their heart, that it is now all
good, that they have passed from death unto life, and so they
do not have to worry anymore about such mundane things as
their having to obey the Words and Commandments of Jesus Christ
and the Apostles.
Nothing
could be father from the truth, disobedience and rebellion
no matter where when or what you may have mumbled at some
point of your life – brings forth eternal death in your soul.
Life
is very simple in the bible, it is a sorting, it is a sifting
it is a separating of those who would love the Lord with all
their heart with all their mind and
all their soul and all their strength, and those who love
themselves and the things of this world more than they love
God.
And
those infected in the church with this epidemic of adultery,
fornication divorce and abortion can be drawn directly along
those lines as those that love themselves and the things of
this world more than Jesus Christ for they obey no His Words
and Commandments.
How do we stop this epidemic, in its tracks in our household
and church?
Forgiveness and loving fellowship cause us to partake
of the cleansing power of Jesus Blood.
At one time being a true believer
meant living a lifestyle of humility and repentance before
God and men. If we can not humble ourselves and depart from
our pride and arrogance and can not forgive our husband or
wife respectively – be assured that Christ in no wise shall
forgive you of your sins either. “And
forgive us as we forgive those who sin against us.”
1
John 1:7 But if we walk in the light, as
he is in the light, we have fellowship one with another, and the blood of Jesus Christ
his Son cleanseth us from all sin. (Without this daily forgiveness
as commanded of us in the Lord’s prayer, and without that
daily deep abiding love and fellowship of respectively our
husband and wife, there can be no forgiveness of God, and
their can be no cleansing and release from our own sin.)
In the Song of Solomon we find
a laver for foot washing before the woman’s (Martial) bed. (Song of Solomon 5:3) – How much more
do we need in this hour a laver in the bedroom in which wives
that have so much feminist aught against their husbands, and
need so to humble themselves daily and wash their husbands feet and dry their
feet with their hair as Mary did to Jesus Christ?
1 John 4:20 If
a man (Husban/Wife) say,
I love God, and hateth his (His/Her) brother, (Wife/Husband) he
(He/She) is a liar: for he (He/She) that loveth not his (His/Her) brother (Wife/Husband) whom
he (He/She) hath seen, how can he (He/She) love God whom he (He/She) hath not
seen? (If
we will honestly look at this passage, this verse has most
of us dead to rights)
My brother (Wife/Husband) hath sinned against me how many times should I forgive
him seven times? Yea I say unto you, you shall forgive him
seventy times seven. (In
other words Peter was never able not to forgive the Apostle
he worked with day in and day out as his brother.)
Matthew
18:32-35 Then his
lord, after that he had called him, said unto him, O thou
wicked servant, I forgave thee all that debt, because thou
desiredst me: Shouldest
not thou also have had compassion on thy fellowservant,
even as I had pity on thee? And his lord was wroth, and delivered
him to the tormentors, till he should pay all that was due
unto him. (And then Jesus solemnly warned Peter and the Apostles against
not forgiving their brothers.)
So
likewise shall my heavenly Father do also unto you, if ye
from your hearts forgive not every one his brother their trespasses.
Titus 3:3 For
we ourselves also were sometimes (Still are) foolish, disobedient, (Self)
deceived, (Living to) serving (Our own) divers lusts and pleasures, living in malice and envy,
hateful, and hating one another.
(As
in our husband or wife)
Despite all of these things being spoken
by Christ and the Apostles on this subject, over the years
and even recently I have spoken to a great many disillusioned
and unhappy Christian wives, and ex-wives. I have heard their
complaints both privately and in telegraphed in church disguised
as testimonies, and prayer requests, and have seen these same
women separate and divorce over nothing.
I have been told by these ex-wives
of how God has so greatly humbled them and brought them low,
and how God has so changed them, of how they were so dominating,
but now how God has made them so submissive, and these have
also confessed that they purposely used sex as a weapon to
deprive and punish their ex-husbands before – but that now
with all that God has done in their lives they would never
do such a thing again.
Yet when I have asked these same
women (If they now being [As these testified with their
own words to me]: so humbled, so changed, so enlightened,
and know now how to be such better wives and now desire above
all to serve the Lord and to be obedient to God in all these
regards) with all that God has shown them, and
changed now in their lives would they be willing now to return
to their former husband they unjustly divorced and show them
all of what God has done in them to make them the wives and
lovers they never were to their husbands?
In every single case these women
have angrily retorted, that they would never return to their
“unspiritual” or “unsaved” husbands. The women that I have counseled in these matters
by enlarge are not young or have newly come to the Lord, these
women have been saved and filled with the Spirit for as long
as three decades and a half decades, and most of these to
boot are active in their Church’s ministry as elders, as song
leaders, and even in teaching.
And yet hidden from the eyes of
their Pastor and their peers these women were filled with
anger, resentment, and bitterness, towards their former husbands
even after they had been divorced them for five long years.
These same women (100% of them) saw no need at all to obey the Commandments
or the Words of Jesus Christ and the Apostles regarding marriage
and divorce. And these would not be deterred from getting
remarried to someone else, and brazenly declared that they
would find their forgiveness from God thereafter.
Long ago the Lord imparted a gift
unto me that I little understood, a gift where strangers would
feel compelled to come up to me, both saved and unsaved and
confess to me their deepest darkest secrets. He also at times
has given me the ability to see the thoughts and the intents
in the hearts of others. .
Within the hearts of many that
are reading these things hidden behind a thick hardened veneer,
within your hear you too have been harboring these same feelings,
you feel their stab and thrust in your heart and then push
your anger your resentment and your bitterness back below the surface and then smile and pretend
that all is well.
Be warned here and now that this
is not forgiveness; this is not release from those seeds that
are being watered and grow within your heart and soul. If
the truth be known unforgiveness, resentment, and bitterness
can not be cast out, and neither can these things be simply
prayed or worshipped away.
If we were to lay out a recovery
program from this highly dangerous and corrosive sin
1) Recognize these sins that beset you,
as evil, perverse, and corrupt, and cease all attempts
to white wash them or explain them away, 2) Begin multiple
times daily to speak directly to the Lord about these sins,
and pray for God to open your eyes, and open your ears, and
to wash and cleanse you of all of these things, 3) As God
begins to move He may well show you instances of your committing
sin, act on these things and pray for forgiveness and cleansing
of any or all things He reveals that is displeasing to Him
4) Confess your faults to other believers people that you
have not sinned against. 5) Go to those who you have aught
against, confess your sin, your anger, apologize, make restitution,
wash their feet and do these things multiple times coupled
with all this prayer and deep repentance until you get release,
until you have been purged from these things.
Thy sins be forgiven, go and sin
no more. And return now unto thy husband with all love and
all affection and all devotion.
In this article though we have
spent much time on those who are already divorced and calling
out to them for meaningful repentance, towards the Lord and
their former husbands.
The true thrust of this article
is towards those women that are married, that are increasingly
unhappy, because the feminist ideals that they have learned
of the world and have been encouraged by the preaching and
teaching in their churches, has caused a horrific power struggle
in the home. And that in the course of time these women who
feel they are being slighted, and not respected in the ways
they have been taught to expect, are building up anger and
resentment in their hearts towards their imperfect husbands.
So that where there once was only love they now striving against
their husband for control of the household as to who makes
the rules, they strive with their husbands concerning the
household finances and budget, they strive against their husband
about the spiritual tenor or the household, they strive with
their husbands about even what sex is acceptable and is not,
and how much or how little there will be and they strive against
a myriad of other things, and in doing so these are tearing
down and destroying their own households, and in doing do
sinning greatly against the Lord.
Proverbs 14:1 Every wise woman buildeth
her house: but the foolish (Fool of a wife) plucketh (Greek: Kate-Skaphe
– Kate a descending or downward
motion
Skapto To dig or excavate) it down with her hands. (Greek: Che-R-Sin,
Che-Cheilos- Lips,
R-Reo A running sore, or A
morbid flux,
Sin-Sun With or Accompanied
with [This is the tearing
down of one’s household with the running sore of one’s tongue. It is the railings, and revilings and forced
submission of a husband by a froward wife].)
God hates this kind of behavior. Got hates
it when women usurp the place of their husband, either in
their demanding to be his co-equal, or causing him to submit
to her wishes wants and desires. If these things are not acceptable
for the bride of Jesus Christ to do to Jesus Christ her Lord
and Master, then these same things are wholly unacceptable
to God and Jesus Christ for a wife to do to her earthly husband.
In the beginning Eve came forth
from Adam’s side, she was expressly created to be Adam’s helpmeet.
The word helpmeet is not easily understood, but if I were
to say that Eve was created to be Adam’s minister and to minister
to his needs you might get a better picture, but even using
the word minister can be misunderstood as many preachers and
teacher seek the preeminence among the brethren, and make
a prey of their flock, so when the bible speaks of women being
created as a helpmeet, or minister, the bible is speaking
of this helpmeet as one being a purchased servant who’s duties
are to minister to her husband wants and needs.
Genesis 3:16 Unto
the woman he said, I will greatly multiply thy sorrow and
thy conception; in sorrow thou shalt bring forth children;
and thy desire shall be to thy husband, and he shall
rule over thee. (In other studies we have offered an in depth Hebrew and Greek
analysis of this portion of this verse so we will not do so
here. In a simple read of this verse, and in Genesis
2:18 we have succinctly stated here that God created for Adam
a “submitted,” “servile,” “helpmeet” expressly for sex and
procreation and to attend to a man’s needs and desires.)
All interpretation of Scripture, the words
of Jesus Christ and the words of the Apostles as to the position
of women in the New Covenant, as to the meaning of being spiritual,
personal spirituality, walking in the Spirit, and walking
in obedience to God and Jesus Christ flow forth from a correct
dividing of the word of truth of these two passages.
And indeed it does as Jesus, Paul and the other Apostles
state over and over that Christian wives and Christian women,
(Even Mary the mother of Jesus at the wedding of Canaan.)
are to be submitted, and servile. And elsewhere Christ and
Paul and the other Apostles state over and over that women’s
purpose in Christ with exception to being eunuchs for the
kingdom, is to get married. have sex daily with their husbands build a household worthy
of Christ and fill it with righteous seed taught in the fear
and admonition of the Lord. And in so doing these Christian
wives are assured of redemption. (Christ’s word’s affirm this in His statement that in heaven
that women shall
no longer marry nor shall be given in marriage – [To do what
to fulfill their duties in Genesis 3:16 and Genesis 2:18]
So that Christ here affirms the duties of Christian Woman,
the women of the kingdom have remained the same in these duties)
This cycle of separation and divorce has to be stopped,
here and now, beginning at the feet of the feminized Christian
wives and feminized Christian women that are future wives
to be.
The fight of all feminism, is
rebellion against this biblical God created, God commanded
submission, unto men where their bodies are not their own,
and that the true feminist pioneers knew full well of not
only these things, but that a Christian woman is to surrender
her will, her wishes, her wants and her desires, and make
her husbands will, wishes, wants and desires her own, just
as every true believer does so when they come to Christ, and
come into His image and likeness. (We have written of these things also in other articles so
we shall not do so here)
The rebellion and fight of all
feminism is to overturn as much of the purposes and commandments
of God, and the words of Jesus Christ and the Apostles as
much as possible. For of a truth the bible is the enemy of
the whole of feminism, and true feminists make no bones about
their hatred of God, the bible, Churches, and men as the head
of households.
Regardless of what all other bible
teachers and ministries declare in this hour I declare unto
you that feminism in all forms and stripes is rebellion against
God’s word, and against the words and commandments of Jesus
Christ and the Apostles. There is not a feminist lite
that is acceptable to God, neither is there a form of Christian
feminism that is acceptable to Jesus Christ.
In the Christian Klesia women,
(To make myself very plain
here in saying the Christian Klesia we are talking here about
the whole of the body of Christ as part of the church made
with hands that all attend. So that these are those that have
not entered into personal justification and personal sanctification
[same experience] before the Lord. And this line of having
entered into Personal Justification and Personal Sanctification
before Jesus Christ and the Father is the true line between
the Klesia and the Ek-Klesia. It is the mark of those that
shall become the Ek-Lektos of God.) To the
women of the klesia, if you examine scripture and the words
of Jeus Christ and the Apostles You will find your walk in
the gospels, that you indeed walk just as the disciples walked
as they followed christ rooted and grounded in selfishness,
in carnality and in sin, even though they followed Christ,
they forsook many things to do so, they even did signs and
wonders, and healed the sick but their combined testimonies
are that they were selfish, carnal and very sinful men that
were in the flesh and were not able to receive the things
of the Spirit that Christ taught and testified to them of
for three and a half years. Their uniform testimony declares
that these things did not change as with Christ’s death and
the shedding of His blood. Neither did the corruption working
in their members change in the day of His resurrection, or
even when He showed Himself to the Apostles and disciples
in personal visitations for forty days thereafter.
Understand here and have no misconceptions
or be high minded that somehow you are better than the disciples
and the apostles in their walks that heard saw and touched
Jesus Christ daily for three and a half years, and did so
as carnal unregenerate men. Even though they were with Him.
You so walk now despite all the experiences that you can tick
off on your list of spiritual attainments.You so walk regardless
of what kind of spiritual or righteous image you want to project
and proclaim about yourself. And the sooner that you can face
up to this and begin to fall upon the stone of Jesus Christ
to be broken of all of your pride and selfishness etc. the
better, so that you can begin the long road to recovery.
And the evidence of all of this
is measured by Jesus Christ himself in your daily sexual relations,
your daily devotion to, and your conforming yourself into
the image and likeness of your earthly husband. – (For
many this words are angering and enraging. And the reason
they are so is you have been nailed in the center of your
sin and rebellion.)
Submission – and its true meaning as defined in Genesis 2:18
and 3:16 is a dirty word to feminists and to Klesia women. It is the greatest thing
in a woman’s flesh that a woman wars against. This is the reason that the Apostles over and
over again exhort married female believers in the early church
that they must needs submit themselves, willingly put themselves
under their husbands (God
forbid or so it is murmured among them) whether
their husbands are saved or unsaved, or spiritual men of God
or carnal and worldly quasi-believers.
(For in the klesia these women use these these very things
as an occasion for their flesh and as justificaton for their
disobedience and rebellion, and then seek to mask these things
as their being spiritual, and their doing so inorder that
they might perform their spiritual service.) Spiritual
service that is rejected by the Lord.
For
of a truth: Except a wife become as a small child; in her
love, in her devotion, in her submission, and in her cleaving
unto her husband and in her looking to him for all of her
physical, and emotional needs, she shall in no wise enter
into the kingdom of heaven. (And of these very things we will give further evidence of
these very things shortly as we examine the Greek in 1 Peter
3:1-3)
I hear all the time bible believing
and Spirit-filled woman saying they have or have had a hard
marriage. That they
have or had a partner that did or does not love them. Or that they were “unequally yoked,” with
an unsaved husband, or “unequally yoked,” with a carnal
or unspiritual husband, or “unequally yoked,” with a husband that has bad manners
or bad habits, or “unequally yoked,” with a husband
hat wants touch them and have sex all the time,
– And
that for their own “spiritual purity” and or their own “mental well being”
that
they are “so
vexed” and “so exercised” over one or all of these matters that they can not go to church,
pray worship, or fulfill their calling and spiritual ministry
as they see fit so that they just had no choice but to divorce
them.
Their husbands are not the cause of these women’s lack of
spirituality, it is their blatant rebellion against their
husbands, their misplaced anger, resentment and bitterness
in a false belief that their husband is holding them back
spiritually, from all the ministries gifts and fellowship
that the lying prophets aka their pastors and teachers have
beguiled them with so that they will show up to the as many
of the local churches meetings and give that church or ministry
as many tithes and offerings as they can.
What does God speak of when women in rebellion exalt themselves
over their husbands and depart them on their own road to spirituality
by attending many meetings without their husbands so as to
exercise their spirituality?
Isaiah 29:13 Wherefore
the Lord said, Forasmuch as this people draw near me with
their mouth, and with their lips do honour
me, but have removed their heart far from me, and their fear
toward me is taught by the precept of men: (Your prayers and
your worship is not received of the Lord, and as you will
not willingly submit yourself to your earthly husband in all
things, so to the Lord will not accept your claims of devotion
and love for Him.)
Matthew 7:22-23, 26 Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied
in thy name? and in thy name have
cast out devils? and in thy name
done many wonderful works? And then will I profess unto them,
I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity. --
And every one that heareth these
sayings of mine, and doeth them not, shall be likened unto
a foolish man, (A Fool of a wife) which built his (Her)
house(Hold) upon the sand: (Of religious disobedience, of religious selfishness,
dishonoring herself her husband and household before God.)
I Corinthians 7:4-6 The wife hath not power of her own body,
but the husband: and likewise also the husband hath not power
of his own body, but the wife. Defraud
ye not one the other, except it be with consent
(Consent of who? The husband first and foremost in scripture, and in area
of sex the wife having her needs and personal pleasure taken
care of can not be minimized as well.) for a
time, (Short
time) that ye may
give yourselves to fasting and prayer; and come together again,
(Right way) that Satan tempt you not for your incontinency.
(For your fasting from the normal daily deep abiding sexual
communion Christian husbands and wives are expected to engage
it.)
Instead what do we have in bible believing and Spirit-filled
churches of this hour we have an endless array of meetings
in which typically Christian wives attend. (In other articles
I have noted that the churches I have attended have always
been predominantly filled with women. On the Tuesday night
prayer meeting, on the Thursday night bible study, On the
Sunday evening service. And then some of these churches have
now local home meetings on the other nights, so that these
women are either away at church for have the week or more,
after these meetings they come home filled and contented from
their having had an emotional affair in the meeting the worship
and their male and female friends thereafter
and so having had their needs met by those other than
their husbands they come home and roll over and go to sleep
or offer at best their husband a emotionless quickie and then
rollover and go to sleep.
So that here in I Corinthians
7:5-6 we find the basis of where a wife’s supposed spirituality,
in which they shirk their God given and God commanded duties,
they are in fact 1) defrauding their husbands their sexual
daily bread, their ministering to their husband, and they
are opening themselves and their husbands up to sexual temptations
in the times when the are hours upon hours not being with
their husbands and being his minister. (I fully realize
here that for many I an talking in
the wind here. As the heartfelt understanding of these things
can only be revealed by the Holy Spirit.)
And of course now six months,
a year or two later these now divorced women have now repented
of all of that and God has totally cleaned up their act so
that now with of course with God’s blessing they want to find
for themselves a new replacement husband. One that is more
handsome, One that is more well to do, one that is more spiritual,
one that is a “God fearing man,” and One that will ever behold
them, that will ever respect them (Over himself),
and one that will ever respect their views, (Over his own views).
What is actually being said here is that these divorced women
have repented of nothing other than their being lonely. And that they in all actuality want to trade
up their old broken down husband for a newer more flashy model
that will let them in fact be as feminist as they want to
be, and exert no authority in any way shape or form over them.
What they really want is a wealthy good looking slave and
part-time concubine.
So that what we have in essence here is a
generation of church going Potipher’s
wives, that are seeking out their own Joseph’s to fulfill their
every lust and fantasy with.
We are now going to address the question about
a wife being in subjection to an unsaved husband or an unspiritual
husband.
Regardless of all the “spiritual” pontificating, (By this we mean being dogmatic unbending and unyielding in
the image and likeness of the Pharisees.)
“spiritual” posturing (By
this we are speaking of the use of deceptive, and deceitful
teachings and phrases so as to give oneself cover for their
disobedience and sinful neglect to the words and commandments
of Jesus Christ.) if we were to judge Christian “feminized” marriage on the basis of in its
current doctrine and traditions of men
as Christ commanded us to do we would have to declare it evil for its evil fruits as made
manifest by the discord between husbands and wives, the nullification of the husband as high priest of the household,
the broken down and neglected altar in the household, and
the 60% rate of divorce among Christians.
The evil tree and evil fruits of Christian
“feminized” marriages along with its current Talmudic doctrine
and traditions of men are separation, divorce, fornication,
adultery, and abortion. (All of which are firmly rooted in women’s rebellion against
the total submission and devotion they are called unto in
marriage as commanded by God in Genesis 3:16 and 2:18.)
In the passage below
we see what Christ has commanded each individual believer
in regard to false teachers and false doctrine. Here Jesus
Christ lays the responsibility to judge individuals, to judge
ministries, and to judge doctrines and traditions squarely
in the laps of each individual believer, and therefore on
judgment day each individual believer shall be held accountable
and judged by Christ alone on these things, so that none shall
be able to say to Jesus Christ or God himself “But my pastor
said”, or “But I was taught.” Understand here that the central
core of the Gospel has always been is our personal relationship
that we are to actively seek after and develop here in this
life. Our being individually discipled to Jesus Christ alone, and our individual and personal accountability to Jesus
Christ alone for our obedience and disobedience to His words
and commandments. By these alone will we be justified unto
eternal life, or by these alone will we be condemned to eternal
damnation.
Matthew 7:15-20 Beware
of false prophets, (False apostles, false evangelists, false pastors, false teachers,
and false brethren)
which come to you in sheep's clothing,
(When Christ spoke
these words His hearers understood Christ to be speaking of
false shepherds as the traditional garb of the shepherd was
sheep’s clothing. – Here Jesus Christ is commanding individual
believers to be judges, and execute judgment upon the ministers
over them that they hold in their eyes with their most holy
and sacred trust – Understand here that in this commandment
Jesus Christ is making each and every believer accountable
for allowing themselves to be discipled unto these men, allowing
themselves to be spiritually and financially robbed by these
men, allowing themselves to be beaten down and conformed into
the image and likeness of these men. and
ultimately being killed and destroyed so as to end up in hell
by following the false doctrines and traditions of these pretenders
and antichrists.) but inwardly they are ravening wolves. Ye shall know
them (These
false apostles, false prophets, false evangelists, false pastors,
false teachers, false doctrines, and false traditions)
by their fruits. Do men gather grapes of thorns, or figs of
thistles? (The answer here
is yes. For as the Jews in the day of Jesus Christ gathered
the false grapes and figs from the Pharisees and all the other
false rabbinical orders. So today in this hour Christians
gather the grapes and figs of lies deceit and deception from
the Pharisees and false rabbinical orders of our day.) Even so every good tree bringeth
forth good fruit; but a corrupt tree bringeth
forth evil fruit. (The fruit of the knowledge of good and evil – the light of
darkness)A good
tree cannot bring forth evil fruit, (Those that walk in the light as He is in the light can not
speak or abide the words or works of darkness) neither can a corrupt tree bring forth good fruit.(Neither can those
that walk in darkness speak or abide the words or works of
the light as it exposes and manifests their deeds)
Every tree that bringeth not forth
good fruit is hewn down, and cast into the fire. (They are cast into the fires of hell in eternal judgment.) Wherefore (fear ye, for as)
by their fruits ye shall know them. (And by partaking of the fruit of the knowledge of good and
evil of these angels of light shall you also be known and
judged likewise.)
So by the words of Christ spoken above we do judge Christian
marriage with is current set of Talmudic doctrines and traditions
of men to be an evil tree bearing evil fruit.
So what then is that which is evil and perverse
in marriage? What has brought forth this evil fruit of divorce
and destruction of the Christian Household?
The issue this hour for Christian women is
whether they can rise against the tide of wholesale rebellion
of the majority of bible believing and Spirit-filled women
as these strive to bypass their husbands and make themselves
the high priestesses of their households, and seek to make
themselves answerable only to the likeminded cabal of froward
women that are steeped in rebellion against their husbands,
and any biblical references that would declare their sin.
Deuteronomy 32:20 And he said, I will hide my face from them, I will see
what their end shall be: for they are a very froward generation,
children in whom is no faith. (In whom there is no faithfulness)
Those who go to church and meetings against their husbands
will or without their husbands rejoice and laud their deeds
in church and are lauded and applauded for their rebellion
so that evil is called good, and good is declared as evil.
Proverbs 2:14-15 Who rejoice to do evil, and delight in the frowardness
of the wicked; Whose ways are crooked, and they froward in
their paths:
We
need to remind our readers what shall you do in the time of
trouble? What shall you do when the EU is over thrown and
your church and fellowship is destroyed? How will you ever
be able to pray and meet God without your synagogues? And
how will you ever be able to understand the bible without
your rabbis and their doctrines and teachings that null the
word and commandments of God?
Being stripped
of the false church made with hands you will have to seek
God for yourself within your own household, you will have
to build your own family altar or perish then and there. And
in that day and hour you will discover for yourself how the
few of the Ek-Klesia have lived
since the times of the apostles in small bands scattered among
the land and hidden in dress, hidden in unmarked houses, hidden
with no criers in the streets declaring you shall meet in
secret here and there. And you shall know everyone by the
Spirit and thus recognize other members that hid in Christ
Jesus. Why should we have to wait to bring our own household
under divine order? Should we not earnestly desire to walk
in these things here and now?
Moving on; we will categorically state here that a husband’s
disobedience, or disregard to the word of God, and more specifically
a husbands disobedience or disregard to the words and commandments
of Jesus Christ does not excuse a wife from speaking evil
of her husband in church and to other believers,
in a wife from disobeying her husbands carnal and ungodly
wishes and wants (Short of her committing criminal acts, committing fornication,
adultery, or blasphemy against God and the Holy Spirit) or in a wife committing wholesale rebellion against her husband
in the name of Jesus and the word of God, while using ever
means possible from her cooking household care, and the marital
bed to coerce and force her husband to submit unto her and
convert to be the kind of husband and Christian she wants
him to be.
Such behavior not the righteous works as many would proclaim
but rather it is a foul stench in the sight of God that He
loathes. This kind
of loathsome behavior is not just all to
common among bible believing and Spirit-filled believers,
but in most churches this “spiritual rebellion” is strongly
encouraged by their pastors and teachers.
Many suppose the submission of wives to their husbands
to be some great grey area in which “Spiritual” women are
somehow exempted from. and as being a “Spiritual” wife they can instead freely do
anything they please want or desire in the name of the Lord. These woman brazenly extol and highlight that
they are not under their spiritual or unspiritual, saved or
unsaved husband’s authority in any way shape or form, but
rather Jesus Christ’s. And that they will only obey what they
see as consistent with their cherry picked view of scripture.
And we might add that these same women openly proclaim in
churches all across the land that it is only by their good
graces that their husband gets any attention at all concerning
any tidbit of their will or wants as regard to the household or themselves.
Ephesians 5:23-24 For the husband is the head of the wife, even
as Christ is the head of the church: and He is the saviour
of the body. Therefore as the church is subject (Upo-Tas-Setai Upo [Nominative] Is: Agreeing to, or Willingly putting oneself under another,

To make someone your pursuit, To dispose oneself to another

unto Christ, so let the wives be (willingly subordinate and reorder herself giving up her wills,
wants, and desires so
that she might no be impeded in any way or being fully fruitful) to their own husbands in every thing. (In all things, and
all areas)
In a previous intensive study on Ephesians
5 we found that the Greek compound word Upo-Tasso-Tithemi
was used exclusively of the church submitting to Christ and
the wife submitting to her husband and the meaning of this
tri-compound word is that of a wife or bride willing subordinating
herself or willingly placing herself under her husband to
see to it that all his wishes wants and desires abound in
all fruitfulness – in other words Upo-Tasso-Tithemi
in a single word is the embodiment virtuous woman of proverbs.
The same sentiments of this virtuous woman willing putting
herself under her husbands influence and authority is voiced
by Jesus Christ
Matthew 11:28-29 Come unto
me, all ye that labour and are heavy
laden, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you, and
learn of me; for I am meek and lowly in heart: and ye shall
find rest unto your souls.
However
in feminism doctrine this can never be allowed to happen,
no feminized woman can ever cede her control, her agenda,
her wishes. or wants – for to do so and come into her husband’s image and
likeness would be spiritual, and moral death. So in feminized households the marriage begins
generally with a series of pacts and agreements the center
of which is the false notion of the husband and wife being
co-equals (Which appeals to our deluded ideals of fairness, balance, as being Christ-like
[Note here that Christ was never co-equals with Peter James
and John, and when ever in the Gospels they exceeded their
place or authority Christ rebuked, corrected, or publicly
excoriated them, and actually many disciples departed from
Christ. – So that only in time did Peter James and John come
into His image and likeness and become truly His apostles) So in these deluded households,
the fruit of this self imposed double-mindedness is the wife
striving against the husband for control, and in the continuing
struggle of wills the wife then goes beyond arguing and striving,
and then begins meting out punishment (In the bedroom, in nit picking, brow beating, and belittling her husband)
with their feminized pastors and preachers in full approval
encouraging such behavior, of her unspiritual husband’s lack
of “Upo-Tasso-Menoing” her, so that
if the feminized marriage is successful it is because the
husband has conformed into the image and likeness of his wife
rather than visa versa. However in most cases the feminized Christian
wife through her systematic punishments drives out her husband
-- and then cries in
church how he was mean and abandoned her.
The
reason for all the divorce, adultery and abortion in the church
today is that it has adopted into its preaching and teaching
the utterly corrupt ideals of westernized culture.
2
Corinthians 6:14-15
-- For what fellowship
hath righteousness with unrighteousness? and
what communion hath light with darkness? And what concord
hath Christ with Belial (satan)? Or what part
hath he that believeth with an infidel?
And
in so doing the church is aborting itself so that in a few
scant generations with a little more sleep and a little more
folding of the hands, if this were allowed to continue the
American church would be well on its way to extinction as
it is already in Europe. Which will shortly be broken trampled in pieces
and ground into dust by the forth beast of Daniel – And Americans,
American Christians now
are only a generation or two away having that same fate as
European Christians.
A note here to those who do examine the Greek we post to
see if these things be so. The Greek Definitions given here
are taken from Liddel and Scotts English-Greek Lexicon (1871 edition) which gives a largely
unfiltered look at classical Greek word usage. (This same Greek is used in the Greek Septuagint and the New Testament.)
1 Peter 3:1-2
Likewise, ye wives, be in subjection (Upo-Tasso-Meno . Upo [Nominative tense] Is Agreeing

or "To Dwell" or “To Lodge” The word Meno is much more than “An Abiding”
The word Meno
includes the meaning that one also comes under the rule, or influence, of whom one he or she abides
or dwells with.[What Paul in the above passage and Peter here
is very hard for those raised in western feminist societies
to comprehend. – When a woman marries she is to disposes herself
of her kindred and fathers house as well as her own agenda, her wishes and wants, and she

1 Peter 3:1-2 (A better rendering) Likewise wives willing place yourselves under, your husbands,
be devoted to and make your husband your pursuit, and abide

And if your husband’s impulses, his plans, and purposes are

such men can be drawn to Christ by your making yourself to

dancing about your husband as you crown him as your lord and
master. And he shall
behold and prove your newfound devotion in Christ by you’re
observing in Christian chastity his rulership his influence
as the true head of the household, and observing your new
found fidelity as you guard yourself against your former infidelities
of emotional affairs with other believers and nonbelievers.
And he will behold in wonder your newfound joyousness and
joyfulness in dancing about your husband as you crown him
as your lord and master, along with your new found fear and
reverence of him. (Peter here is declaring
that in these things you are fulfilling your duties as a Spiritual
Christian. So that as you so do these things as your service
and worship of Christ, your husband will so desire to know
this Christ and His words that have so transformed his wife
into the virtuous woman of Ruth, and the virtuous woman of
Proverbs.)
Except a wife become as a small child; in her love, in her
devotion, in her submission, and in her cleaving unto her
husband and in her looking to him for all of her physical,
and emotional needs, she shall in no wise enter into the kingdom
of heaven. (We can indeed see those child-like
qualities extolled here in 1 Peter 3:1-2)
1 Peter 3:3-6 Whose
(Such
a wife’s) adorning
let it not be that outward adorning of plaiting the hair,
and of wearing of gold, or of putting on of apparel; (The taste not, touch not vanity of those so adorned) But let it be the hidden man of the heart, in that which
is not corruptible, (Beauty fades, even
with all manner of adornment, one cannot truly hide their
age and the corruption of their body.)
even (With) the (Incorruptible) ornament of a meek and quiet spirit, which is in the
sight of God of great price. For after this manner in the old time the holy women
also, who trusted in God, adorned themselves, (Sarah, Rebekah, Ruth) being in subjection unto their own husbands: Even as
Sara obeyed Abraham, calling him lord: whose daughters ye
are, as long as ye do well, and are not afraid with any amazement.
Peter above in 1 Peter 3:1-2 is declaring that believing wives make
themselves their husbands servants to win over their unsaved
husbands or unspiritual husbands, this is especially pronounced
in the story of Rebekah.
Ephesians
6:5-8 Servants,
be obedient to them that are your masters according to the
flesh, with fear and trembling,
in singleness of your heart, as unto Christ; Not
with eye service, as men pleasers; but as the servants of
Christ, doing the will of God from the heart;
With good will doing service, as to the Lord, and not to men: Knowing that whatsoever
good thing any man (Or woman) doeth, the same shall he receive of the Lord,
whether he be bond or free. (Paul uses the same terms concerning being married in I Corinthians 7)
These
passages are given a tutors and governors to help us and guide
us if we will allow these to speak to us and change us into
the image and likeness of Christ.
We
can not say we love Him and are His disciples if obey not
His commandments. All the meetings we go to and all the singing
and worship we do and all the spiritual prayers we pray can
not and will not cover our disobedience and unfaithfulness.
So
also is it in marriage between a husband and wife we can not
say that we love our husband and are his wife if we not “Meno”
our husband, that is to abide or dwell under his authority
and influence, and this is manifested in our obeying our husbands
commandments – if we “Meno” not
our husbands but rather despise his words and belittle him
so as the walk in the ways of feminism – all the singing and
worship, all the spiritual prayers, all the bible reading
and all the meetings we attend will not cover us for our disobedience
and unfaithfulness to our husbands. For to “Meno”
our husband is to manifest Thy will be done on earth (In
my husbands household) as it is in heaven
(As it is in God’s and Jesus
Christ’s household)
We
are to mirror on earth that which is in heaven – and the doctrines
and traditions of feminism are a stench and abomination unto
God. The Lord by His Spirit would declare for those who have
ears to hear that feminism is the “I Will’s” of satan
Here
now is the final word from God Himself on feminism
Isaiah 14:12-14 How art thou fallen from heaven, O Lucifer, (Oh feminized women) son of the morning! (Daughters of rebellion) how art thou cut down to the ground, (From your lofty
calling) which didst
weaken the nations! (By
tearing apart your own households) For thou hast said in thine heart, I will ascend
into heaven, (I will usurp my husbands place in the household and before
God)
I will exalt my throne (My rulership and authority) above (over) the stars
of God: (My
husband) I will
sit also upon the mount of the congregation, (Executing my judgements and making
a name for myself to my greater household) in the sides of the north: I will ascend above the heights
of the clouds; I will be like the most High. ( I will be the husband
spiritually and physically of my household.)
Isaiah 14:15-20 Yet (Because of thy pride and disobedience) thou shalt be brought down to hell, to the sides of the
pit. (Breaking
the first commandment of God unto woman is a sin unto death
– it is a negation of God’s plan of redemption)
They that see thee shall narrowly (To look down upon thee) look upon thee, and consider thee, saying, Is this the man (This feminist wife
she) that made the
earth to tremble, that did shake kingdoms; (Of westernized society) That made the world as a wilderness, (That her feminist doctrines and traditions have
brought the whole of westernized society and the church to
utter ruin to be overrun by the Muslims, because of childless
marriages, marriage with only one or two children, separation,
divorce she has aborting her own seed her church and her nation
with all that that follow in the pride and disobedience to
God of feminism)
and destroyed the cities (So
that their cities and nations are overrun with the ungodly,
and ultimately overthrown by the muslims) thereof; that opened not the house of his prisoners?
(That this feminized
wife did not strengthen the hands of the weak offer healing
and set the captives free [As in covering her husband’s own
areas of weakness and nakedness] but instead sought to rule
over her husband and other men exerting authority as the gentiles
to the beating and abusing those that are weak and infirm
by use of her sharp tongue and state and federal laws.) All the kings of the nations, (Those that are great
in humility and obediance) even all of them, lie in glory, every one in his own
house. (But
not you oh feminized
woman)
But thou art (Shalt be) cast out of thy grave like an abominable branch, (By God as you shall
be resurrected unto eternal shame and eternal death along
with the devil and his angels as Christ declared many times.) and as the (Unclean) raiment of those that are slain, thrust through with a sword, that go
down to the stones of the pit; (This is the sewage pit and dump outside of Jeusalem) as a carcase (To be) trodden under
feet. (Of those that wander and service the dump and sewage pit) Thou shalt not
be joined with them in burial, because thou hast destroyed
thy land, (Thy household, and
thy land )
and slain thy people (And thy children that you have corrupted as well and have
learned your evil and perverse ways shall be declared also
to be) the seed of evildoers (Thou O feminist) shall never be renowned.
Amen.
