You do very right,,,very!!!!! to speak for the persecuted...you are an
excellent example in so doing...may God bless you and use you to continue
in many, many ways for HIS use!!!
Please don't be offended, but as a fellow servant of Christ, I don't know
what the Rev. stands for, but it is a pastor role, I share only from the
Bible, that God has called men to do that, not women. Women have always
been used of God, but just not in that capacity, as there was never one
woman priest or pastor in the whole Bible. More importantly, the Bible
says that this is not to be so in I Corinthians 14:34, and I Timothy 2:11
just for starters...besides, the Bible clearly says that men are to rule
the household, not women, and in I Timothy 3:5 the unchanging Word of God,
that endures forever says, "if a man does not know how to rule his
own house, how ill he take care of the church of God?" ...clearly
this too unqualifies women from the pastorate, as women are not to have
this role either! the goal is this, be honest that it's not the culture of
the Bible that we read incorrectly into, but rather our very sin filled society that taints our view of God's pure unchanging Word, including most
of us in the church! In I Peter 3, we see Peter using Sarah from 2000
years before his time challenging all women to live as she did,
submissively, and Why? because it is how God made us as men and women, not
cultures and times. He made us all with roles to fulfill (I Corinthians
11)! The goal is to be faithful in those roles in this short life, and
then He will be able to elevate us, if faithful here, in the next life,
eternity!! Please pray, and search Jesus and His Word honestly and most
humbly and openly and I truly believe God will agree that this email is
not some brainwashed conservative, but an email that supports the truth of
His Word and His will! I pray God's blessing upon you in the name of the
living Jesus!
Lastly, please don't find me rude not to respond to emails, but this email
has had problems receiving emails since early January when the server
made changes! God bless you! Amen!
Answer:
Dear Brother in YAHUSHUA,
Thank You for your email. To address your
first question regarding why Rev. Elisabeth calls herself Rev please read
her testimony and it will explain that. In regards to the issue
about women not being called as pastors, prophets etc. this is a lie from
satan himself to divide the women and men in the church. Satan knows that
YAHUVEH speaks through and uses women to share his message and what a
better way to prevent the men from hearing YAHUVEH's voice than to divide
the women and men like this.
If we look at the Old Testament and study
Judges 4: 4-14 we see that Deborah was the Judge of Israel at this time
which is a position of authority over ALL Israel MEN included. Barak was a
coward and would not lead Israel to battle without her so YAHUVEH sent her
to lead Israel into battle. YAHUVEH will use whoever will be obedient to
his will woman or man. Other examples of women prophets are Miriam
in Ex 15:20, Huldah in 2 Kings 22:14-20 who spoke "Thus saith the
Lord YAHUVEH of Israel" and Isaiah's wife in Is 8:3 as a prophet and
she conceived and bore a son. In the New Testament lets look at Acts 21:19
regarding the 4 virgin daughters who prophesied and Acts 2:17 where it
states "Your sons and daughters shall prophesy". In Gal
3:28 There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither slave nor free,
there is neither MALE NOR FEMALE; for you are all ONE in YAHUSHUA.
This is very clear that YAHUVEH has used women to speak forth his message
and will continue to do so and YAHUVEH does not look at gender.
The scriptures you refer to 1Cor 14:34, 1Tim
2:11and 1Tim 3:5. Please read our teaching on our page titled "Are
Women Called To Preach or Be An Apostle?" These
scriptures are clearly speaking of the role of a wife in a marriage not
the role of a woman speaking forth YAHUVEH's words and teaching his people
and those that are lost. 1Cor 11:3 says But I want you to know
that the head of everyman is YAHUSHUA, the head of every woman is man, and
the head of YAHUSHUA is YAHUVEH. This scripture is also very clear as to the
chain of command or roles that YAHUVEH has established for his people.
So we are in agreement to the role of husband and wife in a Godly
marriage. The husband submits his will to YAHUVEH and is held accountable
by YAHUVEH in all decisions made by the husband and the wife submits her
will to YAHUVEH and her husband and trusts her husband that he is seeking YAHUVEH's
will in everything. The Ruach Ha Kodesh will confirm in the spirit
to both of them the same thing if they both are submitted and neither one
of them is in the flesh. If either husband or wife is in the flesh
{their will} they will not hear the same thing in the spirit as one is in
the spirit and the other in the flesh. If the husband or wife
are not hearing the same thing in the spirit they are to take it to YAHUVEH
in prayer and YAHUVEH will settle it and you both will know it. I
learned this by experience. We must remember that we are all human and at
times our flesh will rear up its ugly head and it is the
responsibility of the husband or wife to humbly admit when they are
wrong for this is how YAHUVEH keeps us humble. We are not perfect Men
or Women, only our Lord and savior YAHUSHUA and YAHUVEH is perfect.
These are two different issues you speak of
and must be addressed as such. YAHUVEH has brought you to this
ministry to teach you this and if you truely are seeking the truth with
all your heart you will hear YAHUVEH's voice and repent and if you are
puffed up with pride you will close your ears to this truth and will be
held accountable for what you now know. YAHUVEH already knows your
decision.
I pray that you take this message very
seriously for this has divided YAHUVEH's people far to long. My name
is Paul and I have been called to this ministry to be the spiritual
head of this ministry and a minister who has been called by YAHUVEH to
teach the men that women indeed can be used by YAHUVEH in any way YAHUVEH so
chooses. Who are we but mere men to think we can tell YAHUVEH how
YAHUVEH can use his daughters.
Read the "Bone
of my Bones" poem and it will teach men how to be a Godly
husband. There are many prophecies spoken by YAHUVEH through Elisabeth that
will answer a lot of men's questions regarding this also. Thank You
for raising this question, for many men have asked this and this answer will
be posted on the ministry site. If any men would like to contact me
regarding this please email me at Contact Us.
Your Brother in YAHUSHUA
Paul
PS. Are you married? If so I suggest you
share this with your wife.
