We
would like to reach out to you ladies who profess Jesus Christ as Lord and
Savior, who have repented, been born again and are striving to live obedient
lives through His Word, the Bible. We
are going to show you where feminism and the religious organizations
have steered godly women in the wrong direction and our hope is to help
women find biblical godliness in all their conduct. We came out of the man’s religious system
where they never taught these things (nor taught against them) and now we come
in love and truth to share these blessings with other professed sisters of
Jesus Christ; those who are striving to walk worthy:
(Colossians 1:10) that you may walk worthy of the Lord, fully pleasing Him, being fruitful in every good work and increasing in the knowledge of God.
(Colossians 1:10) that you may walk worthy of the Lord, fully pleasing Him, being fruitful in every good work and increasing in the knowledge of God.
We
do not belong to any organization; we are simply born again followers of Jesus
Christ who seek to follow Him obediently through His Word. We do not believe that works can save you as
salvation is a free gift to those who repent and believe, but the
sanctification process refines the sin from our lives and creates us a new
person bearing much fruit of the Holy Spirit. (2 Corinthians 5)
We will show you a few areas that are very important to godly women who are
striving to walk in love and obedience to glorify our Father. First off, if you are not willing to die to
self (Galatians 5:24), deny yourself,
pick up your cross and follow Jesus(Luke 9:23)
or be holy (1 Peter 1:16) then please
go back and examine yourself to see if you are truly in the faith (2 Corinthians 13:5).
Here are a few brief points for godly women striving for truth in obedience.
Here are a few brief points for godly women striving for truth in obedience.
SUBMISSION: submit- to give over or yield to
the power or authority of another. As
regenerated believers, we are all to submit to God (James 4:7) and as daughters of the most High, we are instructed to
submit to the authority He has placed in our lives; our husbands.

(Ephesians 5:22) Wives,
submit to your own husbands, as to the Lord.
(Ephesians
5:24)
Therefore, just as the church is subject to Christ, so let the wives be
to their own husbands in everything.
(Colossians
3:18)
Wives, submit to your own husbands, as is fitting in the Lord.
(1
Peter 3:1, 5) Wives, likewise, be
submissive to your own husbands. For in this manner, in former times, the holy
women who trusted in God also adorned themselves, being submissive to their own
husbands
And
if that is not enough admonition, let us not forget:
(Genesis
3:16) Your desire shall be for
your husband, and he shall rule over you
(The word ‘rule’ in greek
means: dominion, reign, rule, have power)
Why? (1 Corinthians 11:3) But I want you to know
that the head of every man is Christ, the head of woman is man, and the head of Christ is God.
If
godly ladies have submitted to both Jesus Christ and their husbands then they
are to wear a covering. (1 Corinthians 11:6) For if a woman is not covered, let her also be shorn. But if it is
shameful for a woman to be shorn or shaved, let her be covered.
The Greek work for covered is katakalupto meaning: to cover wholly, that is, veil: - cover, hide. This is not a cultural issue as Paul says in
(1 Corinthians 1:2) To the church of God which is at Corinth, to those who are sanctified in Christ Jesus, called to be saints, with all who in every place call on the name of Jesus Christ our Lord
and he also states in (1 Corinthians 11:2) Now I praise you, brethren, that you remember me in all things and keep the ordinances just as I delivered them to you.
(Ordinance means: a precept; specifically the Jewish traditionary law: - ordinance, tradition.) Do you realize that the next ordinance/tradition that Paul teaches in that same chapter is the Lord’s Supper? If we toss out head covering then we must toss out the Lord’s Supper as well. And let us also look at verse 10 For this cause ought the woman to have power on her head because of the angels. God still has angels today.

A
woman is to cover her glory, vs 7 For a man indeed ought not to
cover his head, forasmuch as he is the image and glory of God: but the woman
is the glory of the man.
Verse 15 says a woman’s hair is her glory. Only Jesus’ glory (man) is to be uncovered but
a man’s glory (woman) is to be covered and woman’s glory (hair) is to be
covered.
Some
will say that her hair is a covering but that is not so as Paul takes us back
to nature and shows us how long hair on a woman vs. short hair on a man creates
an example or illustration of how a woman should be covered and a
man uncovered. The catacombs of the
early Christians show pictures of godly women being covered with veils and for
1900 years after that inspired teaching from Paul, women who claimed faith covered
their heads. Who determined head covering
should not be obeyed? Feminists and
man’s religion. Click HERE to read a more in depth article on headcoverings for women.
God’s
Word teaches women to dress biblically as well.
1 Timothy 2:9 In like manner also, that women adorn
themselves in modest apparel
The
greek definition for modest is ‘orderly,
of good behavior’.
The
greek word for ‘apparel’ is katastole.
1.
a lowering, letting
down (kata) 2. a garment let down,
dress, attire (stole)
Apparel, Apparelled katastole connected
with katastello, "to send or let down, to lower" (kata,
"down," stello, "to send"), was primarily a garment let
down; hence, "dress, attire," a loose outer garment worn by kings and
persons of rank,"stole") “katastole” was a free-flowing dress worn
over a stole providing two layers to conceal the form of the body.
This shows us that godly women professing Christ are to wear long, loose, flowing dresses/garments with a double layer in such a way as to cover her form. Click HERE to read a more indepth article on biblical clothing for women.

Isaiah 47:2-3 Take the millstones, and grind meal: uncover thy locks, make bare the leg, uncover the thigh, pass over the rivers. Thy nakedness shall be uncovered, yea, thy shame shall be seen. We see here that to uncover hair (locks) and show the leg and thigh is shame and nakedness.
ADORNMENT:
(1
Timothy 2:9) In like manner also, that women adorn themselves in modest
apparel, with shamefacedness and sobriety; not with broided hair, or
gold, or pearls, or costly array.
The bible clearly states that a woman is to adorn herself in orderly,
long, loose flowing, dresses/garments with sobriety and
shamefacedness meaning: (through
the idea of downcast eyes); bashfulness, that is, (towards men), modesty or (towards God) awe: - reverence,
shamefacedness.
NOT WITH things that the world uses to adorn themselves such as beautifying the hair, wearing jewelry or expensive clothing. Does makeup help us to be godly, shamefaced and bashful? No. Click HERE to read more about biblical adornment vs worldly adornment.
Where we see makeup in the Bible it is referred to as being used by harlots or the disobedient; not godly women striving to please our Father.
(1 Peter 3:9) Whose adorning let it not be that outward adorning of plaiting the hair, and of wearing of gold, or of putting on of apparel; But let it be the hidden man of the heart, in that which is not corruptible, even the ornament of a meek and quiet spirit, which is in the sight of God of great price. For after this manner in the old time the holy women also, who trusted in God, adorned themselves, being in subjection unto their own husbands
This, ladies, is how we are to adorn ourselves, from the inside NOT the outside.

(Titus 2:5)To be discreet
(self-controlled, sober, temperate), chaste (innocent, modest, perfect,
pure), keepers at home (a guard, a stayer
at home, a “good housekeeper”), good,
obedient (be under obedience, subject oneself to) to their own husbands, that the word of God be not blasphemed. Today you see most women leaving their homes
to pursue a career or simply get out of the house; leaving their children to be
raised by others or sent off to the secular ungodly school system and therefore
not fulfilling the role God intended as a help mate to their husbands, or
keepers at home; raising their own children.(Also see Genesis 2:18)
(Romans
12:1)
I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the
mercies of God, that ye present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy,
acceptable unto God, which is your reasonable service.
Will
you follow our beloved Savior in spirit and TRUTH (John 4:24) or will
you continue to follow man-made false religion and feminist lies? Please pray,
speak to your husband and contact us if we can help you
(Proverbs 14:12) There is a way that seems right to a man,
But its end is the way of death.
For His glory…
