What do you think about FEMINISM?

Tell me, what do you think about feminism? For weeks now I have been trying ever so hard to put my words together concerning my thoughts on feminism and this morning I woke up and I had to whip out my note pad and started punching in my thoughts which I want to share with you.
 
I believe feminism is rebellion against the natural order of things and God put things in place the way they ought to be because He knows, in His infinite wisdom, how best things will function. 
 
 
He didn't create a woman less than the man or the man to lord over the woman. No. That's a lie. Man was built, created, equipped to function in the capacity as the head of a woman 'in his home'. Please take note of the words 'in his home'.

Just like in every organization, there is a structure. You can't have two captains in one ship. If you do, there might be a problem with the functioning of that organization. There's always an overall head who is 'qualified' to be in charge. 

Same it is with the man in his home. He is built, qualified by God to head his home. The woman, in as much as she is told to be submissive to the man, doesn't mean she doesn't have a say or a voice.
 
Unfortunately, some men have mismanaged their God-given position. They have abused it and subjected their wives to slave-status. They expect you to do whatever they want you to do without even thinking about it or giving a contrary opinion. Just do it.
 
They also moved this mentality to the corporate world where women are treated less just because she is a woman. An instance is the gender pay gap that exists in certain companies, where the man is paid higher for doing the same thing as the woman. This wasn't the way God wanted it to be. 

Man was in the garden (Eden) and God seeing he was alone wanted to make for Adam 'a helper comparable to him' (Gen 2:18). God's purpose for the woman was to be a helper. The woman is a help-meet for the man; supporting him, advising him, helping him to fulfill his God-given duty as the head of the home. She gives him the due respect and  submits herself to his decisions he makes after duly consulting with her. 

Just like God created sex and we abused it, today husbands abuse their positions and guess what? The world then says the Bible is sexist and patriarchal. Oh no! The Word of God is perfect. It can never go wrong. We are the ones who misuse it and misappropriate it. 

If we are to follow the Scriptures the way we ought to, we will see that husbands ought to love their wives, 'just as Christ loved the church and gave himself up for her' (Eph 5:25). A man who loves his wife wouldn't treat her like she is nothing and that her opinions don't count because he is the 'man'!

Eph 5:28 says, "In the same way, husbands ought to love their wives as their own bodies. He who loves his wife loves himself."

"Nevertheless, each one of you also must love his wife as he loves himself, and the wife must respect her husband." (Eph 5:33)

"Husbands, love your wives and do not be harsh with them" Col 3:19.

Also in 1 Pet 3:7, "Husbands, in the same way, treat your wives with consideration as a delicate vessel, and with honor as fellow heirs of the gracious gift of life, so that your prayers will not be hindered."
 
Even the Bible points out that the way a man treats his wife can hinder his prayers. So, the Scriptures does not and will never undermine the place and the role of a woman. Instead, it insists that she be treated with honor and with consideration as a delicate vessel. God created her delicate.
 
 
Women don't possess the kind of brute strength a man has. We are naturally weaker in physical strength than the man. A man is built differently. 

Also notice two very important things you may have missed: In Eph 5:21, we are told to submit to one another out of reverence for Christ. That means the Bible is saying that irrespective of your gender, submit to one another because of Jesus. Man shouldn't lord it over the woman and woman over the man. 

Rather, it is in the home that the husband is the head over the woman, his wife! He is not head over every woman in the world, only his wife. Neither is the woman supposed to submit to every man in the world. She is to submit to only her husband.

The Bible didn't say 'the man is head over the woman' but rather 'the husband is head of the wife' (Eph 5:23), so stop twisting God's Word and embrace it for what it is. The man is head over the woman in the home setting because order is needed for a home to function properly. If the man and his wife are dragging position, there will be a problem. God created the man to be in charge and the wife to help him. You can't change that.

Order is created so that things can function at its optimum best. If we want to fight that in the name of being 'woke' and of feminism, we are going against God who created all things and gave them their places. That's rebellion and the world is so full of it.

 *Please share if you have a contrary opinion but I so agree with the Bible that God values women and demands that they be treated right. God bless you.

Celebrities sell their souls to the devil for fame and fortune

It is said that most Hollywood celebrities, to get to where they are today, made a deal with the devil...they sold their souls for fame and fortune. By selling their souls they submit to Satan so that he totally uses, enslaves and possesses their life, body, mind, will and soul. Satan's goal and agenda becomes theirs. Their life is no more their own. So let it not surprise you when their songs or movies serve Satan's purpose of driving men into deeper darkness. These celebrities are idolized and literally worshiped but clearly they serve Satan and channel demonic spirits through their music and movies. From the likes of Madonna,Jay Z, Beyonce, Lady Gaga, Rihanna, Nicky Minaj ,Eminem, Bob Dylan and so so many others, these are known to be demon possessed having sold their souls to the devil. Melyssa Ford, a Canadian hip hop model and actress ,said in an interview, "If your ultimate goal is to be famous, you have to do a lot to get there like sign your name in blood i

Late Hollywood actress, Marilyn Monroe, told Billy Graham, "I don't need your Jesus."

She had the perfect life anyone could dream of; remarkable wealth and great fame. Despite all that, Marilyn kept all of her sufferings to herself. One day during filming, a preacher named Billy Graham visited her. He said the Spirit of God had sent him to preach to her. After hearing what the Preacher had to say, she said: "I don't need your Jesus". During that time, Monroe who was allegedly having a romantic affair with the President of the United States, John F Kennedy. A week later, she was found dead in her bedroom. Theories of her death started to spread. Some say she was assassinated because of political conspiracies and in the end, the most accepted theory up to this day is she committed suicide. It shows that she was suffering from a severe depression. In fact it is actually the right time for her to seek God, asking for help, not to take the easy way out by taking her own life. *Hmmm... One day soon I will write on Marily

See how music is used to cast spells...(A must read)

We love music, but do you know there could be more to music than we bargained for? The devil is desperate and we should not be ignorant of his devices and this is one of them. One weapon that he always uses is subtlety . Here's what I pulled from a Wiccan website concerning Magickal music or let me say how they cast spells in music: "A magick spell is the integration of an intent with a physical representation of that intent.  "For instance, when you make a Witch’s spell pouch, out of a cloth and some herbs and oils and objects, each of those items represents a part of your intent. And in the magick, you are binding those two things: your intention and the physical world. "This brings your intention into form in the physical world. That's how magick spells work. In magickal music, the intention is wrapped up into a song, and bound into it. "When I create magickal songs, I do it with the guidance of the Divine. In a meditative state
