How To Be A Submissive Wife

I am in the same place right now. I attend celebrate recovery and I am now starting to attend al anon. I pray Eph. 1 And 4 and 1 corn 3 daily for my husband. I could not keep my mouth shutand support him so I left.We pray togeather. He talks on the phone and I listen.I encourage him with Gods truth. I dont fix him. I amwatching him go down and one day he will hit the bottom. I take care of my part focusing on God and me.Changes God is making what he is teching me.I no longer dwell on him or how to fix him. God is clear he works out or salvation.i also pray for strongholds to be broken and generational curses to be broken.

How To Be A Submissive Wife

I bathe us in prayer. I hold ever thought captive and test it to Gods word Return to Lord and pray then I speakI tell the truth in brotherly Love. Get help. Get a mentor sponsor wise counsel from men at church, pastor. I accept the fact that he has free will. Hard to do. I wait on the Lord and I am joyful because He will complete the good work He began upon Christ Jesus return. It is along slow road process but God is faithful to give us the desires of our heart.but we must not grow weary. I also dont deny my self to him for I know neither of us needs to be temted during this seperation.

Can A Person Be Born Evil

leslie, here is that passage- John 9:34 To this they replied, "You were steeped in sin at birth, how dare you lecture us!" And they threw him out. It says IN sin. Jesus was born into sin but did not sin. All are born in sin. Jesus became SIN. Born in then became, took on, etc. Babies are innocent and they come into a world that teaches them how to sin. Just like when we are born again in Christ, he teaches us to walk right and talk right. To be like Christ.

We can still witness and minister. As long as you're putting the Gospel out there than your title is of no importance and that's for men and women. Not everyone is called to be head of a church but we're all chosen to spread the Gospel. ---April on 12/21/08 I completely agree. But what is ministering? when we determine this, we will have women's role in the Body of Christ. We are told by men that this is not possible for women to minister. Something else to think on, Rachel was a shepherdess (gen 29:6). So maybe need to rethink that women can't or weren't able to carry this role when indeed, they did. Oh, Christ is still the Head of the Church!

The False Doctrines Blog

trav, Jesus gave us TWO specific commandments before he left us physically. 1)Love God with ALL your heart, soul, mind, and strength. 2)Love you neighbor as yourself. Matt. 22:36-38, Mark 12:29-31, Luke 10:26-28 The teaching of racism, prejudice, and sepration by color doesn't line up with Jesus's second command. These things DO NOT show love to your neighbor as you love yourself. If you show this kind of fruit, you are not loving your neighbor. If you spread things like this, you are spreading the works of the flesh- Galatians 5:18-20 specifically hatred, wrath, and strife. The way you are teaching does not line up with the Word of GOD.

Sorry, none of us have that luxury as true christians miche3754 ---john_adams on 12/16/08 ! NOT A CHRISTIAN THING TO SAY ! Everyone agree that God and his word doesnt change? What God said in the beginning, STANDS NOW and FOREVER. Rhonda, are you saying that God doesn't call women as God did in the past? Its MAN that has changed, NOT GOD. By that many women being ordained BY GOD wasnt them going against God's will. Paul was addressing a SPECIFIC issue at that time. It doesnt apply to end times. Paul said these changes would come about because God is getting ready to come back. If you don't see the HS working in ALL Christians, then you are blind to what the HS has revealed about the end times.

john adams, you speak false about women leading in the BODY(all Christians) of Christ(HEAD). Scripture says there isnt MALE OR FEMALE in THE BODY of CHRIST. ALL will proclaim(preach, teach, etc.) the GOSPEL(Good news). What was Deborah doing, then? Obeying God as a Judge of her people. Why did Israel need judges? because they didnt have kings at the time. Did she lead? YES!and a battle was delivered into her hands,but some say this ISNT done by God. You can't argue this, its the word of GOD. Esther saved her people through leadership and sacrifice. But ya'll say GOD says a woman can't lead. When these plainly show otherwise but you ignore and say "NO, GOD didn't say this." Are these scripture lies, then?

also john adams, You ASSUME because I did not have room to post everything that I wish to say that I dont consider the Word Of God which by the way YOUR STATEMENT IS FALSE of me. Remember what God says about making false statements based upon WHAT you see? Since you know this then you should know the answer brother. And, Yes, these women that EVERYONE here is against, go through GREAT adversity just As John did. Because YOUR OPINION DOES NOT MATTER(everyone interprets and this is human fallicy). Misinterpratation to back up what you say- those who want it to be true say it is for ALL time. Those who say other wise say it is time/site specific. WHAT GOD TELLS YOU TO DO, DOES MATTER. SO, if God is telling you to do, THEN DO IT!

Paul gave instruction, just because the people at the time needed it, doesn't mean it only applies to them. It applies to us all. ---john_adams on 12/12/08 Brother, none of what you said about me is true. On the contrary, I believe every word God says. What most are NOT considering here is where God does thing in HIS time and in His season. His will. See Ecclesiastes chapter 3. This also goes for what Rhonda said. That women preacing are the Anti-Christ?! sister, what an unChristian thing to say. We ALL know that there are somethings in the Word of God that ARE ONLY FOR A SEASON. AND SOME FOR ETERNITY. Is this not the Word of God?

john adams, I said that CHRIST is the HEAD of the Church- Not the pastor or anybody can take Jesus's place as HEAD. Deborah was appointed a LEADER during war, You cant refute that. Barak said he would not go unless she did. Deborah told him that the enemy would be delivered into a woman's hand and not His- Deborah. So yes God does appoint women to lead. He appointed Esther to lead her people to freedom, even at the chance she might lose her life. Clearly some here don't understand that God does things that confound the wise. And putting a woman in a pastor position does do this. Those on this site who claim knowledge of the word, claim to be wise to God when God raises one then puts down another just because he wants to.

john adams, I apologize for HOW I worded that. We are suppose to pray and ask God to show us Through the WISDOM of the HOLY SPIRIT what is right. So, would the Holy Spirit show us what is to be taken literally in Scripture, what was meant for a Time and a Season, What is metaphoric and stands completely through all time? Yes the Holy Spirit does. God says that for EVERYTHING there is a time and a season. So could the Holy Spirit through Paul have been addressing a specific thing during a specific season? Yes, HS could have. Especially when you look at other scripture from Paul that "seems" to contridict.

Rhonda,(watch your fruit, sis) NO One leads the Church but Christ. Christ does speak through women. When we speak of order in the church as in a marriage Christ meant metaphoric not literally. Don't say Christ didnt use metaphors or parables - He did. He said in marriage man is the Head. Jesus wasnt speaking literally that a woman couldnt pastor a church simply because she isn't the Head of the Church- Jesus is. So its impossible for either woman or man to be Head/Leader of the Body of Christ because Christ is. When you say a woman can only serve CERTAIN positions in the Body whos speaking? MAN not Christ. Thats why we have the fruits of the Spirit. To descern IF they are truly following. There are men that are false too!

rob, you are correct. When I see women like Deborah, who had a husband but during the time that Israel had No Kings, she lead and judged Israel. In fact Barak would not go into battle without her leading. The battle was delivered into Deborah's hands. But everyone on this site DENIES that God allows women to lead when she clearly did. If this is so, then WHY did God appoint Deborah in the first place? This is a question we all need to search the Holy Spirit for the answers. I believe Paul was speaking to a certain group of women at that time that had the "jezebel" spirit, as you said. I don't believe Paul would have stopped a true woman of God from following her calling from God.

that is right Rhonda, two cannot lead. Christ leads the Church through who He chooses, male or female. Quench not the thirst of the Holy Spirit. THe FEW passages only written by Paul are taken way out of context. But then I guess those here believe the HS limits women because saying she can't do these IS limiting HS in her. I have seen God work in ways NO MAN can explain. So, how can the "clay"-humans, tell the "POTTER"-God what he will do with His followers? Are any of you big and bold enough to call God a liar when He asks you why you condemned HIS servant just because of her sex?

AMEN! darlene, AMEN! I even provided the so-called-nonexisting scripture where a woman is called to lead. Men have perverted the WORD to have control -this is the ultimate ploy from satan. A man is head of his household the same as Christ is head of the Church. Notice: man his own household Christ over Church Is a pastor/teacher/preacher/evangelist/psalmist(singer) the head of the Church? NO!!CHRIST IS! Men take site specific scripture and apply it where they choose, I have seen that on here many times. But they do not apply scripture to themselves.

rob, Judges 4:4 "Deborah, a prophetess, the wife of Lappidoth, was leading Israel at that time." Some versions say judging. At that time period, judging was the same as leading because Israel was in bondage(judges 4:1). Judges 4:9 "Very well," Deborah said, "I will go with you. But because of the way you are going about this, the honor will not be yours, for the LORD will hand Sisera over to a woman." God delivers Sisera into Deborah's hands. She lead, not Barak. It isn't for us to say what God can do or for us to judge. You can tell if any preacher/teacher/pastor is true by watching they fruit they bear. Try the Spirit and let the HS guide, NOT man's traditions just as JESUS commanded.

Offended By Women Pastors

thank you rob. I only trust what Jesus says on this. Jesus says not to follow MAN's tradition but to follow HIM. It has always been Man's TRADITION that a woman cannot preach/teach. I guess most are busy trying to teach their way instead of Jesus's way to "see" this. I understnad now about the jezebel spirit. I have never met a woman preacher/teacher with it. The ones I have met have always had a great spirit of humbleness about them. They usually either have a husband that they respect above all except God or they have completely dedicated their lives to God. No children or husband. To them, God is their husband. So, I go by the fruit any preacher/teacher bears male or female and trust God above all else.

lee right on. If taken literally there are many that are truly men of God that everyone is saying can't be according to the Word. You cant apply one but not the other. God's word doesnt change and if this is to be taken literally, a woman cant sing because its a leadership role in praise and worship. What of unmarried women? Lord help them beause they wouldnt learn a thing. The Spirit of God would suffocate in them. Many dont realize that some of the verses in the Bible are site specific. There really is only one instructor- The Holy Spirit. God sent the HS to teach, and guide. Got to wonder if anyone is actually seeing through the HS at this. There is clearly a malignant spirit coming through what some here are saying.
