Patriarchy was Instituted by God and for Good Reason. Those who go against it are in Rebellion Against God.

The very term 'patriarchy' evokes all kinds of negative feelings in modern society. For many in modern western society, particularly women, it is the most evil and worst dystopian nightmare possible. For others, it is seen as outdated and antiquated, but nevertheless viewed unfavourably. Yet for some acculturated in western culture, it is simply foreign but evoked not strong emotions. Either way, there is no concept of patriarchy in modern western society, and increasingly westernised countries all over the world. By contrast, patriarchy is seen as the norm in many cultures and societies, all over the world, including those that are successful in their own right. One striking observation to be made is that all successful civilisations are patriarchal, be it Greek, Roman, Chinese, Babylonian or Egyptian. Male authority in the family and in the Church, in the case of a Christian society, as well as in society generally, is the instituted order of God.  Without patriarchal aut...

The Abuse of Scripture and the Perversion of Biblical "Gender Roles"

Gender roles is one of the hottest topics in society today, and it certainly is a topic that some Christian circles are fixated on, to the point that their entire theology on based on the question of gender roles. While submission of the wife is an important doctrine and is not to be neglected (Ephesians 5:22-23), and indeed should be taught more, owing to the constant perversion of it to qualify this teaching, some have gone to the other extreme to misapply gender roles. This is itself wrong and must be addressed, for it is well understood in most church circles that a wife must submit to her husband. Most reasonable non-fundamentalist Christians, irrespective of denomination, acknowledge that a wife is obligated to submit to her husband as part of her obligations towards him. But gender roles go both ways, in that the husband also has his obligations towards her, and are far more complex than the literal text of Ephesians 5 than fundamental Christians make it out to mean in makin...

A Vision about the spirit of Religion

I saw a vision during the evening on Friday 26 April 2019: I saw a woman being tied up in metal chains. There were chains all over her. She was struggling and crying out. As she cried out, a man placed  a duct tape, with two strips of heavy-duty tape cross over each other, over her mouth to stop her cries. As she continued to cry out, the man slapped her in the face twice to make her shut up. The woman symbolises those under the spirit of religion. The chains symbolises bondage, and the man symbolises those who use religion to oppress others, and hold them in bondage, more specifically spiritual bondage . The Lord later revealed to me that the chains are the rules that religion imposes on people based on false doctrines that people try to find, by twisting Scripture. These rules tie people up in bondage. The duct tape symbolises the attempt to stop people from calling out to God for truth, because they are being told that the false doctrines imposed by religious people are the ...

The spirit of Absalom in False Teachers is of Self-centredness, Deception and Manipulation

False teachers are often simply regarded by many as those who teach false doctrines, and are dangerous because of that. False teachers, are far more dangerous than that. They are extremely dangerous people. They are wicked Absaloms, that is, self-centred, manipulative, and proud people whose words are all full of venom and nothing but curses. False teachers are what are called 'narcissists' in modern terms. They are absolutely demonic, diabolical people.Anyone who has even been in contact with such a wicked Absalom can testify of the self-centred prideful spirit of such people.  They are full of wickedness, and do not even know it. They are constantly trying to justify their wickedness by all cunning kinds of ways. In particular, those under the spirit of Absalom twist clear unambiguous teaching on the Bible, to render them ambiguous so that he can impute his own meaning to it, and push his own teachings onto people. His extremely subtle twisting of Scripture is his way of ...

False Teaching is Itself Spritual Abuse because it Hinders a Person from Fully Flourishing Before God

Abuse comes it all kinds of forms, and the most pernicious type of abuse is spiritual abuse. People who are being spiritually abused often do not realise it, precisely because it is spiritual abuse.  False teaching is itself spiritual abuse. It is spiritual abuse not only because it causes people to be led astray from the truth, leading to their destruction. Spiritual abuse is far more than that. Spiritual abuse, in being for the ultimate destruction of the person, destroys the humanity of a person. Abuse is not the mere lack of respect for a person, although a person who is abused will certainly be shown no respect towards. Destroying, diminishing, damaging, or distorting the humanity of a person is the essence of what abuse is. By abusing a person, one is treating him or her as one who is not created in the Image of God, or failing to treat him or her as being fully created in the Image of God. False teaching is of an extremely insidious and pernicious type of abuse. Part o...

False Teaching is Itself Spiritual Abuse

False teaching is itself a form of spiritual abuse. It is abuse because it leads people into spiritual bondage, which leads to pain and suffering, owing to the error in false teaching. It damages people spiritually, as well as emotionally, mentally and psychologically because it causes people to fall out of the Will of God, by means of deception. That is why false teaching is so abominated by God.  That is why Apostle James said that those who desire to teach are held to greater account: My brethren, be not many masters, knowing that we shall receive the greater condemnation (James 3:1). Anyone false teacher, especially one who constantly airs his or her teachings, despite being so obviously erroneous, is an abuser.  Show me a false teacher, and I will show you an abusive person, who is full of hate, pride, arrogance and all manner of wickedness.  He cares not about the suffering that he causes to others, as long as it helps his agenda.  He is full of sham...
