It has been a long while since I have written here at WordPress. Great site…but sometimes while doing good you just burn out. I have been writing under the name “realskinnyoneeve” (or some form of it) for at least two years now…fortunately my passion for this word remains the same but as an author and as a worker in Christ I have much growing to do. But despite all I either know or don’t know what I don’t doubt is the work of God in my life to make me as crazy as I get about the subjugation of females in the Christian church. Simply God-given in me. He wakes me up with it, he puts me to bed with it.
I twitter now (often for hours) and get clarity of this word in two distinct ways. First, just how amazingly awesome is our God and secondly, just how wrong is the traditional male pulpit of the church. So I push on and I believe we will see CHANGE. I believe that God is moving and that saints are growing and at some point will understand…it is God we worship, not the pulpit. The pulpit…mighty men and women of God that they are, are still accountable to truth in the word. I can smell tradition a mile away in this garden word. It distorts truth, destroys marriages, and ruins many a saint.
All I ask, is that if we know something can’t be right…trust the voice speaking to you and put some work in learning this word for yourself. You don’t have to be fluent in the Hebrew, just look up key terms and apply the same amount of thought your sanctified mind would apply to any other worthy endeavor in your Christian life. And then…be bold and start asking questions. Be polite…stay holy…but understand no one has the right to by pass your mind. Maybe you will never agree with me but at least get informed. Don’t let the pulpit be your bible. We can’t be working harder at chicken dinners than we do at knowing who we really are in Christ.
The other question is, why is it so HARD to get at the root of this garden word…why so much Christian double-talk, so much contradiction that we are told not to challenge but just believe. I find that my passion for God demands truth of his actual word, not an empty show of piety or pompous religion furthing the agenda only of man.
That’s all for now.
