Okay fellow brothers and sisters of the Lord, it’s time to choose. A giant tidal wave is coming! Do we run in land as far as we can, to a place the wave will not reach us, because we have become one with the world, the earth, the land, the lost? Or do we sail deeper out to sea, the Soul Sailor to be? Do we face the wave?
We know what we are called to do. So like Gideon, anyone who is afraid and wants to run inland, you might as well go now, but for us Soul Sailors, we need to take a good look at what this wave is made of.
First of all, churches are going to be forced to come out of the grey. They are either going to need to embrace Eve having authority equal to man, and allow her to lead men, teach men, run the church with as much authority as a man, as the Pastors of churches, or…they will need to embrace the scriptures showing a clear difference between the authority God gave the man compared to the woman, which the world knocking at our doors will plainly declare as sexist! They will scream discrimination and throw stones at us “haters”, as we the “haters” throw no stones back. (Not a pretty picture.)
We need to look at some of these scriptures so we know exactly what’s going on. I have preached for some time now that most churches should just tear 1st Corinthians 11 right of their Bibles because we pretty much don’t do any of it anymore! At least not in the way the early church did. You see, this same chapter also includes the Apostle Paul correcting the Corinthians on how they were doing the Lord’s Supper. And if you’ve read much of this site, you know I teach we’re supposed to still be doing a Christian form of the Passover! The Lord’s Supper! A meal! But we’re in too much of a hurry, and we short-form a sacred event that’s meant to be the very template of CHURCH! And we turn Easter into an event including worship of Ishtar, Sun god, Baal, Ashtoreth, Gaia, all of it!
Now let me ask this…don’t you think it is a little odd…that the one chapter of our N.T. that gives such details of the Lord’s Sacred Meal…that we have short-formed and desecrated for decades…is now one of the strongest chapters of the Bible likely to get us stoned! Unless we surrender. Unless we give up our Soul Sailor ways, lower our sails, scrap the sailboat, and never live by the power of the WIND again! And when the Mark of the Beast comes? Your boat won’t float!
Personally…I find this very interesting. We reap what we sow. Just another of God’s tidbits of wisdom concerning how the earth/gaia works. (Intentional small “g”!)
So…we’re coming out of the grey! Yes, my Bible…my Sword from God says homosexuality is an abomination in the sight of God! Is that black and white enough? God says there is something called SIN! And it has separated us from the one TRUE God. It’s not your truth my truth. It’s God’s!
It also says God put man over woman in authority in the Church! Now whether that applies to the world or not? Quite frankly, I don’t even care! Do what you want with it! But when it comes to the sea, the Spirit, and the Sailboat God gave me? Keep your hands off! I sail according to the Eternal Map of God’s Word and it is taking me to a place Gaia worshipers can only dream about! If they want to worship a decaying creation over an eternal God full of everlasting life, then so be it. Their choice. I respect their choice, let them respect mine.
Here’s a few choice pieces from 1st Corinthians 11, (churches will likely burn because of this.) >
“But I want you to know that the head of every man is Christ, and the head of every woman is man, and the head of Christ is God. Every man praying or prophesying, having his head covered, dishonors his head. But every woman who prays or prophesies with her head uncovered dishonors her head, for that is one and the same as if her head were shaved.” (vrs. 3-5)
(vrs 7-9) > “For a man indeed ought not to cover his head, since he is the image and glory of God; but woman is the glory of man. For man is not from woman, but woman from man. Nor was man created for the woman, but woman for the man.”
This is just a few of the scriptures from our Bible, which happen to be in 1st Corinthians 11, and there are many other places also, likely to get us stoned as haters. But on this note, while we’re here…
I find it interesting that these scriptures speaks of the man being the “head” over the woman, and just a bit later says that if a woman refuses to wear a head covering when she speaks among men in the church, then she dishonors her “head”. Now is she dishonoring her physical head as in anatomy? Or her spiritual head as in her husband? I would have to say both. This is where the question of who told Eve she could not eat of the tree becomes so important.
I wrote this in this very Blog site like 3 years ago. There is no record of God telling Eve not to eat of the tree. God had put Adam in charge, but that “charge” is meant to be used in “love”, both love for God, and love for Eve. So God expected Adam to instruct her and he obviously did. So what does that mean?
It means when Eve disobeyed the instructions Adam had given her, she was directly dishonoring Adam. She went against his will, which was in obedience with God’s will. And when those “wills” were broken, it was not Adam who gave out the judgments, because he is under authority too! Adam is not God! He answers to a head too! God, the very top of the chain-of-command exercised His own authority. The only authority any of us have, is God-given, and can also be God-taken!
Another interesting note, it is likely Adam added to God’s instructions when he told Eve she could not even touch the tree. For a long time I thought Adam should not have done that, but… I’ve had a thought…we know women are very affected by “touch”…and men more by “sight”! Was it so even then? How very interesting.
So…here we are…according to these scriptures…the will of God…Eve is way out of control in the church! And the toothpaste will not go back in. We are in check! And checkmate is drawing closer everyday! Adam has already lost the garden. God already knows it. Currently the church is managing to hide in the grey, the bushes. It’s just a matter of God showing up, calling us out of the bushes, then Adam will blame Eve and Eve will blame the snake, (of which he is very proud of said fact), and then God will enforce judgment. Where do you want to be? Way out at sea fighting woman/man/Gaia? Or…way in land fighting God?
There is much more to come on this. We’re just getting started!
