Having been where you are, emotionally and spiritually, i know that the only Way to Healing is The Truth! Not as we want it, but as The Truth IS! And, oh how the pain seems unbearable at times. Yet The Comforter is there and the Reality He brings of Heavenly Things helps to keep one's affections above so the influences of natural sight, hearing, intellect, desires, etc, will not accomplish their task of perverting, subverting or massaging The Truth. Grey is no longer a desirable 'color' for those who have received "a love of The Truth".

My response below was recorded a few years ago. And no, i have not denied that women are needful, yet women that would pervert and subvert GOD's Order are a curse! No different than the man who would do the same!

The following is written in the hope that many would set their affections on things above, and that they would desire, more than all natural and earthly things, that Heavenly reward promised to all GOD's Children! (Hebrews 11:6, Colossians 1:5, 3:1-3)

"As for MY people, children are their oppressors, and women rule over them. 0 MY people, THEY WHICH LEAD YOU cause you to err, and destroy the way of your paths."(Isaiah 3:12) Who are the 'MY people' in this prophecy (Matthew 10:34-39) which 'way' is being destroyed and how? (John 14:6, 2Tim 4:3-4, 2Thes 2:8-13) "Because they received not the love of the truth, that they night be saved; GOD will send then strong DELUSION, that they should believe a lie. That they all might be damned who believed not the Truth, but had pleasure in unrighteousness. (2Thes 2:10b-12) "And a man's foes shall be they of his own household."(Mat 10:36)

It is quite apparent that the reality of The Testimony above is currently being fulfilled in most, if not all, households in this place called the usa as "american christianity" engages in a continuous assault upon the Truth, and DELUSION remains, and is solidified as its' only foundation! It is true indeed that, 'The whole world lies in wickedness" (I John 5:19), yet here in this so called 'christian country', Truth has fallen in the streets! (Is 59:14-15) Covetousness, now being called materialism or good management, rules midst the DELUSION, and a love for the world and its' things has become the common desire and reward! (lJn 2:15-17, James 4:1-4) What an ungodly communion! Many find righteousness in loving only a 'small' portion of this evil world, never coming to a right understanding of this world's source. Lukewarness reigns (Rev 3:14-19), as DELUDED, so called 'christian' souls serve Satan's worldly system, and as double minded men speak, from their lips only, the name of Yahshua, The Messiah, while their affections, their desires, their love, is for earthly things! (Colossians 1:1-3, Philippians 3:17-20) Sensuality and natural desires masquerade as spirituality. In 'american christianity' the flesh need not be crucified, rather it is nurtured, fed and pampered! (Gal 5:24) Oh, the DELUSION of these last days! (2Thes 2:10-12) And you wonder, "Why is Gods' Power not manifest today"?

Men, the "MY people" of Isaiah 3:12, serve their wives and children, caught up in the strong DELUSION promised for these last days, believing that as they serve "their" family they are serving GOD's purposes and pleasing HIM. Yet in Truth they are subjecting themselves unto Satan's worldly system, working to supply not just the needs but the wants (lusts) of their families! Men doing all for 'family' in the name of GOD, never coming to the realization that the only True Family, the only Real Family is made up of those Children Born of GOD, Joint Heirs With The Messiah, the Family of GOD! Not a family of the flesh, earthly; but a Family of the Spirit, Heavenly! A man serving 'his' family is but serving his own ‘self’… "Thou shalt worship the Lord thy God, and HIM ONLY SHALT THOU SERVE!"(Mat 4:l0b) And you wonder, "Where is Gods' Power"???

Everyone that desires that heavenly home, and then reads a testimony to Faith such as "Pilgrim's Progress", has that desire increased as he 'lives' what is written and 'tastes' of the "Life" testified to therein… Yet when it is brought out that "Christian's" first leap of Faith was to forsake 'his' family, well then the testimony therein loses it's luster as the natural man, the thinking man, takes over once again… A 'thinking' man is naught but an easy target for manipulative processes… "And what is it that women do"???

"That which is born of the Spirit is Spirit, and that which is born of the flesh is flesh!" The flesh or the Spirit? "Choose you this day whom you will serve!" All 'Christian' men should desire to serve and seek to please GOD, not women and children! When men are seeking to please GOD then, and only then, will women and children be given a right testimony as to the Love of GOD! Only then will a right testimony be given as to where 'Real' life is found; life not of the flesh but Life of the Spirit! And you wonder, "Where is the "Body of The Messiah"???

A living testimony of service to, and the desire to please the physical family can be given by many worldly, earthly groups. GOD's Children will desire to give a living testimony to GOD's Family as they seek to but serve and please HIM. ALL other desires will be in subjection to their primary desire of serving and pleasing GOD! Wondering, "Why don't we have "Communion of the Holy Ghost"???

GOD will supply all the needs of HIS Family, especially the needs that matter most, such as Love, Joy, Peace, Fellowship... ; and of course we are promised that all our needs, both physical and Spiritual, will be provided "richly in Yahshua The Messiah"! This does not mean we are not to do physical labor, rather we are exhorted, 'to work that good thing with our hands!"' But why? The simple answer is, "to give to him that needs it!" Ep 4:28) We are not to use our labors to "heap it upon the lusts" of our physical families, or to "be at ease in Zion"' We are not to store up earthly treasures! We are not to build bigger barns! We are not to seek to be rich! We are not to "love the world, neither the things that are in the world!" We are to "trust the LORD Our GOD, and lean not unto our own understanding! We are to desire Heavenly things, things of the Spirit! We are to desire that "Holy Communion", the "Common"union led of the Holy Ghost, which can only be experienced as brethren come together for one purpose and one purpose only, to serve GOD: allowing GOD to "work in them HIS will and good pleasure"! We are to realize that all is GOD's and we are but stewards willingly giving as we have received". We are to "give to him that needs it!" We must be willing to distribute and communicate to others what GOD has given us both physically and Spiritually! (lTim6) "What of GOD's Power"? "What happened"?

Seems most are lovers of pleasures rather than lovers of GOD; and the pleasure need not be some childish lust, or a heinous sin such as covetousness, "which is the sin of idolatry!" It can just as well be taking pleasure in, or seeking to please, your natural family, which is but a "form" of "communion", and then one never seeks, never cries out to GOD for that "Holy Communion" which brethren are to partake of! Who desires to forsake ALL, EVERYTHING that they have? "Except a man forsakes all that he has, he can not be my disciple!" (Luke 14:33)

Some would say i advocate a dissolution of the family. Far from that thought is my cry to serve GOD instead of the family! Not to dissolve the family but to guide it into a loving, trusting relationship with The ONE GOD, Father of The Msater(Lord)Yahshua The Messiah, allowing HIM to bear the burdens! Only HE can mold and shape vessels fit and meet for HIS use! Only in service to GOD can a right testimony of "The Life" be given to children and a wife!!! When they see their father and husband submitted unto GOD, it gives them the living testimony they need to submit unto and desire GOD's Order(GOD, Messiah, man, woman)!!! "Why isn't it like it was in the early church"?

We are told that "it is good for a man not to touch a woman!" Why then marry? To bear children might sound right and proper, yet The New Testimony speaks, that we are to marry "to avoid fornication" "For it is better to marry than to burn"(l Corinthians 7:1-9) Justifying marriage for any other reason or forbidding to marry is to create your own gospel! Also, Yahshua testified of the blessed women, "whose wombs never bore, and breasts never gave suck!' Paul would that all men and women were as he, not married of the flesh but married to Yahshua The Messiah in service to GOD!(I Corinthians 7:8) And two joined together as "one flesh" can yet fulfill that "marriage to The Messiah"! "Will the Holy Spirit abide midst Delusion"?

We are to present our bodies a living sacrifice unto GOD, not unto women and children. When Brethren truly sacrifice themselves unto GOD's Will, the Power of GOD will be manifest to all, for they will devote themselves unto HIM and their labors will be seen by all! A testimony of "seeking not what you shall eat or what you shall wear" will be given, as they bear living testimony to the providential goodness of GOD! This will not occur until brethren are alive in the Spirit! it will not occur until they enter into the upper room and in Truth, not just in words, trust in GOD with all their heart! It will not occur until brethren spend more time doing GOD's work than they do working for unrighteous "mammon"! GOD will insure that all needs are provided for those who "seek first the Kingdom of GOD"! "Maybe they just Trusted GOD more in the 'early church'.."?

Finally a few admonitions from GOD's Testimony: "Think not that I am come to send peace on earth: I came not to send peace, but a sword. For I am come to set a man at variance against his father, and the daughter against her mother, and the daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law. And a man's foes shall be they of his own household. He that loves father or mother more than Me is not worthy of Me: and he that loves son or daughter more than Me is not worthy of Me. And he that does not take his cross, and follows after Me, is not worthy of Me. He that finds his life shall lose it: and he that loses his life for My sake shall find it. (Matthew 10:34-39) "He that loves his life shall lose it; and he that hates his life in this world shall keep it unto life eternal." (John 12:24-25) "Except a man forsake ALL that he has, he can not be My disciple!" (Luke 14:26-35) "And why do you call Me, Lord, Lord, and do not the things which I say?" (Luke 6:46)

"Because thou hast hearkened unto the voice of thy wife, the ground is cursed....!"

And the curse was .......…......... until Faithful Noah!

"And GOD smelled a sweet savour; and GOD said in HIS heart, I will not again curse the ground any more for man's sake; for the imagination of man's heart is evil from his youth; neither will I again smite any more every thing living, as I have done. While the earth remains, seedtime and harvest, and cold and heat, and summer and winter, and day and night shall not cease."(Gen 8:21-22)

GOD Help, that we take heed of HIS voice only! Be one of the Faithful!

"By The Grace of The Only True GOD, Father of ALL"
