With The Ancient is (supposed to be) Wisdom
Grace and peace to all our sister saints!
We were out on the streets at a farmers market today, you can see the videos HERE if you want. In one you will see a blatant feminist. As you will see, once again in so called Christian America, barely anyone wanted to hear the Word preached. (However, a young man brought us a bottle of water, another man stood by us for a long time listening and we gave a few gospel cards out to people who thanked us.) But for the most part, nobody wanted to hear the truth.
One woman, who never set food anywhere near us, called the police and said brother Jim was chasing people down the sidewalk and touched her. He did no such thing as we were together the entire time and she never left her booth. (She was a much, much older woman.) The wickedness....wow! Brother Jim is constantly telling men to beware and always be on guard. Well, read the old testament and through out it you will see the wicked works of strange women and how the men are warned about them.
For those of you who don't know, Florida is a popular place for the older folks to move, mostly retired, a good portion have a big pile of money in the bank or investments to where they can indulge every aspect of their flesh from fancy million dollar houses on the ocean, expensive condos, the best restaurants, pricey clothes etc. Not everyone is like that but even the ones who have less money, try to live like they have more. It's all a big flesh fest and older people, who should have more wisdom....don't. It inspired me to write this post.
Job 12:12
With the ancient is wisdom; and in length of days understanding.
Brother Jim preaches about how the older people should have wisdom but they are just as foolish as the youth today. (I'll focus on the women of course.) When I was growing up, my grandma's were NOTHING like the 'grandma' aged women today. My grandma's were not biblical women by any means what so ever but they did have wisdom and more of a sense of shame than the aged women today. It's horrifying to see these elderly women, showing off all their elderly skin and forms in tiny, mid thigh length dresses, tattooes, and purple, pink or green colored hair. Not only do they look like that, they act like they look....shameful.
Proverbs 16:31
The hoary head is a crown of glory, if it be found in the way of righteousness.
I just shared this passage with a sister...
Isaiah 3:10-12
Say ye to the righteous, that it shall be well with him : for they shall eat the fruit of their doings.
Woe unto the wicked! it shall be ill with him : for the reward of his hands shall be given him.
As for my people, children are their oppressors, and women rule over them. O my people, they which lead thee cause thee to err, and destroy the way of thy paths.
FEMINISM
It comes out from the center of wickedness in a woman's heart. It's demonic and very dark. I know, I was one and the only thing I didn't do as a feminist was abort a child. (I wouldn't have been able to do that in my conscience.) Feminism is an outright onslaught against God's headship order and it causes massive destruction to the human race. Yep, look at Eve, didn't take long for feminism to rise up did it?
Romans 1 clearly shows what's going on today...
Romans 1:18-32
For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who hold the truth in unrighteousness;
Because that which may be known of God is manifest in them; for God hath shewed it unto them.
For the invisible things of him from the creation of the world are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even his eternal power and Godhead; so that they are without excuse:
Because that, when they knew God, they glorified him not as God, neither were thankful; but became vain in their imaginations, and their foolish heart was darkened.
Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools,
And changed the glory of the uncorruptible God into an image made like to corruptible man, and to birds, and fourfooted beasts, and creeping things.
Wherefore God also gave them up to uncleanness through the lusts of their own hearts, to dishonour their own bodies between themselves:
Who changed the truth of God into a lie, and worshipped and served the creature more than the Creator, who is blessed for ever. Amen.
For this cause God gave them up unto vile affections: for even their women did change the natural use into that which is against nature:
And likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust one toward another; men with men working that which is unseemly, and receiving in themselves that recompence of their error which was meet.
And even as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge, God gave them over to a reprobate mind, to do those things which are not convenient;
Being filled with all unrighteousness, fornication, wickedness, covetousness, maliciousness; full of envy, murder, debate, deceit, malignity; whisperers,
Backbiters, haters of God, despiteful, proud, boasters, inventors of evil things, disobedient to parents,
Without understanding, covenantbreakers, without natural affection, implacable, unmerciful:
Who knowing the judgment of God, that they which commit such things are worthy of death, not only do the same, but have pleasure in them that do them.
What do we see when a woman does something wild and crazy (which usually means sinful), the women cheer.
Proverbs 9:13
A foolish woman is clamorous: she is simple, and knoweth nothing.
What do we see when older women (or any age but I'm going after the aged women) dress in skimpy clothing, deck themselves in all sorts of make up and jewelry, tattoo and pierce up their body, get plastic surgery to lift up body parts that are drooping ...the other women yell 'you go girl' or 'you got it flaunt it', or 'live it up'.
"They not only do the same but have pleasure in them that do them."
As the generations pass, we see that it's more a badge of honor for a women to be wild and crazy, foolish and free than to be sober minded, grave, shamefaced, chaste, submissive and a servant to others. In fact, there are times we meet young people who have more seriousness than the aged! What a mess!
It clearly shows the end times coming when God's creative order is totally backwards and the men act more like women than the women do. Yes, that is the unregenerate world and that's expected but if you look at the entire picture of it, you see society unraveling any semblance of God's order from the beginning.
You want an example from those who claim Christ? How about this one...
Most of you know about the anabaptists. (Mennonite, Amish, German Baptist and all the other unbiblical denominations). We see foolishness in some of those women who are claiming Christ, claiming to be raised in the bible and walk around with the world thinking they are true Christians. I've shared that we witness at the vacation area here in Florida where the anabaptists flock to in the winter months. The women will ride around on bikes and I'll stop right here and explain that it's not sinful to ride a bike if you are properly clothed and doing it for a good reason. These women, on both pedal and electric bikes, will fly down the extremely busy 4 lane streets, alongside the cars racing by....for fun. Add on to that picture a woman in a dress, pedaling that bike with her knees going up and down, let's just say that I saw sights I'd rather not have seen. Foolishness, not wisdom. And they are teaching the youth to follow after them in their fleshly pursuits. Here's another one, where's the aged wisdom in this scene? After we were done witnessing at the park the other evening, it was getting dark pretty fast as we drove by that community on our way to go get set up for the evening. As we went by, we saw 4-5 young teen girls in tight, short dresses, riding their bikes. They had to have come with their parents or grandparents...where is the wisdom in letting youth (especially girls) ride around after dark for no reason?
Wisdom is despised and foolishness is praised in this culture! There's nothing good to be said about foolishness and those who practice it are in grave danger.
Proverbs 26:1-11
As snow in summer, and as rain in harvest, so honour is not seemly for a fool.
As the bird by wandering, as the swallow by flying, so the curse causeless shall not come.
A whip for the horse, a bridle for the ass, and a rod for the fool's back.
Answer not a fool according to his folly, lest thou also be like unto him.
Answer a fool according to his folly, lest he be wise in his own conceit.
He that sendeth a message by the hand of a fool cutteth off the feet, and drinketh damage.
The legs of the lame are not equal: so is a parable in the mouth of fools.
As he that bindeth a stone in a sling, so is he that giveth honour to a fool.
As a thorn goeth up into the hand of a drunkard, so is a parable in the mouth of fools.
The great God that formed all things both rewardeth the fool, and rewardeth transgressors.
As a dog returneth to his vomit, so a fool returneth to his folly.
It used to be that the young would look up to the aged and seek wisdom....today the youth admire the foolish.
Isaiah 5:20
Woe unto them that call evil good, and good evil; that put darkness for light, and light for darkness; that put bitter for sweet, and sweet for bitter!
Let us strive to be an example of wisdom...with gravity, sober mindedness, sharmefacedness, with a meek and quiet spirit and submission. We know the world will call the godly woman foolish for fulfilling her role, but....
1 Corinthians 1:27-28
But God hath chosen the foolish things of the world to confound the wise; and God hath chosen the weak things of the world to confound the things which are mighty;
And base things of the world, and things which are despised, hath God chosen, yea, and things which are not, to bring to nought things that are:
And we also know this...
1 Corinthians 1:18-25
For the preaching of the cross is to them that perish foolishness; but unto us which are saved it is the power of God.
For it is written, I will destroy the wisdom of the wise, and will bring to nothing the understanding of the prudent.
Where is the wise? where is the scribe? where is the disputer of this world? hath not God made foolish the wisdom of this world?
For after that in the wisdom of God the world by wisdom knew not God, it pleased God by the foolishness of preaching to save them that believe.
For the Jews require a sign, and the Greeks seek after wisdom:
But we preach Christ crucified, unto the Jews a stumblingblock, and unto the Greeks foolishness;
But unto them which are called, both Jews and Greeks, Christ the power of God, and the wisdom of God.
Because the foolishness of God is wiser than men; and the weakness of God is stronger than men.
Hold fast to the Word and Truth of God, sisters, as this world is quickly growing dark. Let us shine our light brightly that those seeking may see and come.
My mind is sickened by the foolishness of the aged, how about we end this by looking at something good and pure:-) Giving our Father glory for His creation.
A sister saint set this to me and it was so nice I wanted to share it with you all:-)
Press on sisters, through this foolish world and soon we shall be with our Savior!
May the grace of God be with you all.
