John wrote, “Notwithstanding I have a few things against thee, because thou sufferest that woman Jezebel, which calleth herself a prophetess, to teach and to seduce my servants to commit fornication, and to eat things sacrificed unto idols. And I gave her space to repent of her fornication; and she repented not. Behold, I will cast her into a bed, and them that commit adultery with her into great tribulation, except they repent of their deeds. And I will kill her children with death; and all the churches shall know that I am he which searcheth the reins and hearts: and I will give unto every one of you according to your works.” (Revelation 2:20-23) John, in the clever wisdom of the Spirit, tied this idea from the early history of the church all the way down to the Great Tribulation. This is a warning to our generation that this Jezebel spirit would come to a head in our time right before the end of the church age. We are viewing the last great deception that reveals the growth of this spiritual insanity.

The Spirit of Jezebel in the church is so accepted and dominating that almost no religious leader or spokesman is willing to open his mouth. We have great voices, like T.D. Jakes, that are traveling the world teaching his form of the Jezebel doctrine. Major publishing companies are promoting Bibles that are “gender sensitive” to placate the Jezebel demand. Churches are busy ordaining women to the same level as men. The worldly women no longer wait to be pursued by men, but they are busy pursuing whom they please. The hairstyles and dress styles of women become more masculine with every culture change of our world. We are on a descent into the abyss.

The glory of womanhood is so beautiful that a lady must come down from her pedestal to be equal with a man. God had finished His creation of man and placed him in His garden before He saw something was missing in man’s fullness. To create a world full of souls to love the Father, man needed a helpmate - a partner - to make life complete. In a totally unique way, the Father created woman. He made her out of something that He had already so perfectly created. From man’s side, God took a rib and formed woman in the likeness of the man. While man and woman were created in God’s image, woman was created out of man in a likeness to man’s unique needs. Nothing is more beautiful than a woman that allows her created beauty to dominate her life. Nothing is so ugly as a woman who tries to be a man. I’m yet to meet a man that wants his wife to act like a man. It’s totally contrary to his and her nature.

It’s only natural that our world would eventually try to change God to match the growing effort to change manhood and womanhood. In fact, it is impossible to maintain a proper image of God when we change our own image of ourselves. There is a created ingeniousness inside the soul of a man to view God in an enlarged image of himself. He made us to view ourselves, as He is Himself; and when we change ourselves contrary to Holy Scripture, we lose the ability to view God rightly. Our present world is experiencing a crisis of knowing who God is and understanding His majestic personhood. The multiple Bible versions create a smorgasbord of concepts about truth, and without truth as a foundation, everything we believe becomes blurred.

God does not have a feminine side or a feminine counterpart. Such thinking flies in the face of the Infallible Word, the nature of God, and common sense. When the Father created woman for man, it was an act of love and compassion for His earthly family. It had nothing to do with trying to repeat His feminine side. It was an act to provide His family with a family for themselves and to give humankind perfect physical fulfillment. There are no feminine angels because there is no purpose in angels procreating. God created each angel Himself and they were never intended to marry or to give in marriage. They are complete in themselves.

The Spirit of Jezebel is the expression of fallen angels that constantly seek to blaspheme the Great Creator and to reduce Him to a level that they can conquer. Homosexuals, lesbians, and every immoral lifestyle are part of Satan’s design. Promotion of the thought of God being partly feminine is nothing but an effort to justify all immorality, especially lesbianism. The Jezebel spirit hates the fact that a masculine God created our world. It also hates the authority by which God directs His universe. Nothing is hated more by feminism than holiness, purity, and authority.

Our God is masculine, our Saviour is masculine, and the Holy Spirit is masculine. Holy Ghost-filled men lead the true church of Jesus Christ. The women of God in our midst are absolutely as important as any man, and their role in the church is of the highest importance. There is no difference in importance, but there is a difference in the role that we fulfill. “For God (masculine term) so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son (masculine term), that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.” (John 3:16) Christ is subject to the Father, man is subject to Christ, and woman is subject to man. It’s God’s order and totally complete.
