GENDER EQUALITY IS AGAINST GOD'S DESIGN OF MEN & WOMEN! God Made The Women/Wife As The WEAKER VESSEL Compared To The Man/Husband => The Head of The Woman/Wife.



This REBELLIOUS WORLD is in the direction of GENDER EQUALITY. As with many other GOD'S TRUTH, the Fallen Mankind always replace the WILL of GOD The FATHER with their own FreeWill. That is, with their own Man-Made Ideas and Traditions (Mark 7:7-9, Matthew 15:3, 8-9, 13). This carnal practice of Mankind makes void the Word of God to transform and elevate Man to the High Stature of Christ (Mark 7:13). This cause confusion and contradiction to God's Life Principles, causing many Human Problems and Crises.

THE WOMEN/WIVES ARE THE WEAKER VESSEL COMPARED TO MEN/HUSBANDS
  • …ye Husbands, dwell with them according to knowledge, giving honour unto the Wife, as unto the WEAKER VESSEL, and as being heirs together of the grace of life; that your prayers be not hindered. (1Pet 3:7 KJV)
AS UNTO THE WEAKER VESSEL; ... and here "the weaker"; being so for the most part, both as to strength of body, and endowments of mind; and therefore to be used gently and tenderly, and not be treated with neglect and contempt, or with inhumanity and severity; but as, in every state and condition, the strong are to bear the infirmities of the weak; so a man should bear with, and accommodate himself to the infirmities of his wife, and hide them as much as he can, and not expose them, nor despise her on account of them. 
-- John GILL's Exposition of The Entire BIBLE 

The above-mentioned Supernal TRUTH means that there are certain Things that Women CANNOT DO and SHOULD NOT DO. Therefore, all Women/Wives should NEVER COMPETE WITH MEN. Otherwise, they became REBELLIOUS and BLASPHEMERS of God's Word (Titus 2:5).

THE FAMILY IS NOT JUST A HOME; IT IS A MINIATURE KINGDOM

In a Kingdom there must be only one (1) King. And the King is the Husband/Father; and it is always a Male, never a Female. The Wife/Queen is the Female, which is always in subjection to the King. 

When there is no King, the Queen can never substitute and call her as the King. She is always the Queen, and is called the Queen. She can never be called as the King. This is the secret formula for every Family and Government to be successful.

WOMEN/WIVES MUST BE MODEL EXAMPLES TO THEIR DAUGHTERS & YOUNG MAIDENS TO BE SUBMISSIVE TO THEIR HUSBANDS WHEN THEY ARE MARRIED
Women or wives may teach in private in their own houses and families, but always under the authority of their Godly Husbands. They are to rear their Children in the Biblical Principles of Life. And especially, to be model examples for the young women to be submissive to their own husbands when they get married (Titus 2:3-5).
  • and that older women likewise be reverent in behavior, not slanderers nor enslaved to much wine, teachers of that which is good;  (Tit 2:3 HNV)
  • that they may train the young women to love their husbands, to love their children,  (Tit 2:4 HNV)
  • to be sober minded, chaste, workers at home, kind, being in subjection to their own husbands, that God's word may not be blasphemed.  (Tit 2:5 HNV)
THE REAL BEAUTY OF THE WIFE IS HER SUBMISSION TO HER HUSBAND!
  • For in the past, the Holy Women who hoped in God also BEAUTIFIED themselves in this way, SUBMITTING TO THEIR OWN HUSBANDS, just as Sarah obeyed Abraham, calling him Lord... (1Pet 3:5-6 HCSB)
DON'T ALLOW COUP D'ETAT TO HAPPEN IN YOUR HOME! THIS IS AN ABOMINATION TO THE LORD GOD!

Will you exchange God's Marriage Law for the sake of a fleeting peace? How can a seemingly happy marriage deceive you?

A husband and wife may seem to be happy and at peace with each other because the wife had taken over the rule and rein of Government in their Marriage and Family! And the Husband did not resist.

For the sake of peace and unity, the Husband keep silent and allow the "coup d'etat" to take place in the home. This is what's happening also to the Churches and the World. The Churches' sinful Pastors & Ministers, Marriage Counselors, Lawyers, and Lawmakers are captured by the IGNORANCE of the Great Mystery of Marriage without even knowing it. They think they know Marriage, and yet the Bible says they don't know (1Corinthians 8:2).

They became BLIND to the True Blessings of the godly Marriage! Will you allow these Blind guides to lead you? If so, you will surely fall into the ditch with them (Luke 6:39).

For more explanation, please go to the following articles:

1. DON'T ALLOW COUP D'ETAT To Happen In Your HOME! Marriage Coup D'etat Is An ABOMINATION To GOD.
2. WHO IS THE MOST BEAUTIFUL WOMAN, AND WHAT MAKES HER BEAUTIFUL? If You Are a Man Looking for a Wife, You Should Know the Secret of a Beautiful Wife and Search for Her! Then, the Success of Your Marriage is Guaranteed!
3. THE CHURCHES ARE DECEIVED ABOUT GOD'S COVENANT GOVERNMENT! God's Government is Patriarchal, Never Matriarchal! Marriage and Family Government Ignorance Leads to Pastoral Cruelty, Broken Marriages, Broken Homes, Broken Churches, Broken Nations! 

4. The LAW OF THE ROSH (HEAD), AS APPLIED TO THE HUSBAND-AND-WIFE RELATIONSHIP IN MARRIAGE. Wives Are Commanded By God To Submit To Their Husbands, NOT To Correct Them! But What If The Husband is Really Wrong?

THE 3 STAGES OF THE GREAT MYSTERY OF MARRIAGE BETWEEN CHRIST & HIS BRIDE, And Between A Man And His Wife. If You Want To Be Saved, You Must Comply With These 3 Processes of Salvation.



Marriage is a holy and divine institution, created by the Creator God of everything that exists. The three (3) stages of Marriage are applicable both to the physical and spiritual dimensions, that is, to the Marriage between a human Man and Wife, and between Christ and His Bride (Ephesians 5:31-32). Yes, Marriage is a GREAT MYSTERY, and everything revolves around it; including the Salvation and Eternal Life of Mankind. Since Marriage was created for this purpose, God the Father wants to emphasize the sanctity and great importance of Marriage upon Men and Women, and most especially, to the Marriage of Christ and His Bride. Its very name in Hebrew, "kiddushin," means "sanctification." This ideal purpose is shown in the details of the wedding ceremony proceedings prior to the consecration of the CHUPPAH (wedding canopy), and immediately after that.

The BRIDE OF CHRIST, MINISTRY OF LIFE

THERE ARE 3 PHASES OR PROCESSES OF GODLY MARRIAGE, WHICH ARE THE
PROCESSES FOR THE SALVATION OF MAN AT CHRIST'S RETURN
  1. BETROTHAL 
  2. NUPTIAL 
  3. UNION
According to God the Father's WILL and standards, all these three are necessary for a Marriage to be considered binding and legal. And for you to be saved and be included in the genuine BRIDE OF CHRIST at His return.

1. BETROTHAL (Consecration). Once you repented of your sins, accepted Christ as
your Savior, and was baptized, then you are betrothed to Him. This is the start of the Marriage Covenant, which is the Legal and Contractual phase.  Betrothal is very different from the marriage engagement between sweethearts of today. Betrothal is legally binding. The persons involved are already considered as having a legal marriage.  

As BETROTHAL is a Marriage Covenant, it has to do with CONSECRATION. For the Physical Marriage, this means that the Bridegroom is not free to court or have another marital relationship with another woman. It's the same with the betrothed wife; she is not free to be courted or to have marital relationship with another Man. 

For the Spiritual Marriage to Christ, that means that you are not allowed to have relationship with another Church or Religion that is contrary to Christ's teachings and practices. Otherwise, you become unfaithful to Christ. You are consecrated to that person, or to Christ, that you are already betrothed with. You are already legally and spiritually joined to that person. 

THE BRIDEGROOM GOES AWAY TO PREPARE A PLACE FOR HIS BRIDE


According to the Jewish Marriage customs, there is a 1-year interval between the Betrothal and Nuptial stages. Thus, the Bridegroom goes away for a period of about 1 year. By this time He builds a house or prepares a residential dwelling for His Bride next to His Father’s House (John 14:2-3).
  • In my Father's house are many Mansions: if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you (John 14:2 KJV)
For an in-depth explanation about the meaning of Mansions, go to: WHAT ARE THE "MANY MANSIONS" MENTIONED BY CHRIST IN JOHN 14:2? The "MANSIONS" Are Offices and Positions of Leadership and Authority in the Kingdom of God the Father!
So Christ went to His Father in Heaven after His resurrection from the dead, where He is now sitting at the Right Hand of God the Father (Mark 16:19, Luke 22:69, Acts 5:31). And the BRIDE OF CHRIST remains here on Earth. Christ promised His BRIDE that He will surely return to fetch Her (John 14:3).
  • If I go away and prepare a place for you, I will come back and receive you to Myself, so that where I am you may be also. (Joh 14:3)
THE DAY AND HOUR OF CHRIST'S RETURN WILL BE REVEALED TO THE GENUINE BRIDE OF CHRIST!

But, for the exact time of Christ's return, only the Father knows. This means that only the Father has the final say or authority to decide when should Christ return to Earth. In other words, it is only the WILL of the Father that will determine the exact day and hour of Christ's actual return to Earth! And Christ always submit to the WILL OF GOD THE FATHER (Mark 13:32)
  • But of that day and that hour knoweth no man, no, not the angels which are in heaven, neither the Son, but the Father.  (Mar 13:32 KJV)
But God the Father will reveal the exact Day and Hour to the BRIDEGROOM (Christ) and His BRIDE!

The Father must first inspect the premises of the dwelling place of the Bride and the Bridegroom, as well as, the spiritual preparation and readiness of the BRIDE OF CHRIST. If it’s OK according to His requirements and standards, then the Father will reveal the exact Day and Hour to the BRIDEGROOM (Christ), and to the BRIDE OF CHRIST the exact Day and Hour of Christ's arrival on Earth (Amos 3:7).
  • Surely the Lord GOD will do nothing, but He revealeth His secret unto His Servants the Prophets.  (Amo 3:7 KJV)
The Bride knew that the Bridegroom will come in a Night. This is prophesied in the Song of Solomon, and in Matthew 25:6.
  • And AT MIDNIGHT there was a cry made, Behold, the Bridegroom cometh; go ye out to meet him. (Mat 25:6 KJV)
The Night is a metaphor for the Great Tribulation at the end of the age. Thus, the Darkness at the end of the age, which is the time of Christ's return, will become so thick and blinding. While waiting, the Bride is commanded to be always ready and to watch world events, analyzing the signs of the times, and the changes of the seasons (Matthew 24:32-33, 42-44).

GOD'S COVENANT REQUIRES A SHEDDING OF BLOOD

God's Covenant requires a shedding of blood. This is a secret of Christ’s Passover meal with the Passover wine symbolizing His Blood. Christ poured out His blood in Calvary at Passover time. The Bridegroom went to the mountain of Myrrh and Frankincense (Solomon 4:6), which means the Groom is to die for His Bride. He is anointed for His burial.
  • Until the day break, and the shadows flee away, I will get me to the mountain of myrrh, and to the hill of frankincense. (Son 4:6 KJV)
According to Jamieson, Fausset and Brown Commentary:
Historically, the hill of frankincense is Calvary, where, “through the eternal Spirit He offered Himself”; the mountain of myrrh is His embalmment (Joh_19:39) till the resurrection “daybreak.” The third Canticle occupies the one cloudless day of His presence on earth, beginning from the night (Son_2:17) and ending with the night of His departure (Son_4:6). His promise is almost exactly in the words of her prayer (Son_2:17), (the same Holy Ghost breathing in Jesus Christ and His praying people), with the difference that she then looked for His visible coming. He now tells her that when He shall have gone from sight, He still is to be met with spiritually in prayer (Psa_68:16; Mat_28:20), until the everlasting day break, when we shall see face to face (1Co_13:10, 1Co_13:12).

2. NUPTIAL (Convocation). This is the Ritual and Ceremonial phase of the wedding. When the Father sends Christ back to Earth, there will be that marriage ceremony as according to the Jewish wedding ceremony, which is usually done under a Chuppah or Marriage Chamber. During this time, animal sacrifices are butchered.
  • The SUN...which is as a bridegroom coming out of his chamber (chuppah)... (Psa 19:4-5 KJV) 
The SUN is the symbol of Christ Jesus -- the coming BRIDEGROOM to marry His faithful BRIDE. 
  • …let the bridegroom go forth of his chamber, and the bride out of her closet. (Joe 2:16 KJV)
THE RETURN OF CHRIST AND HIS MARRIAGE SUPPER WITH HIS FAITHFUL BRIDE
  • And I heard as it were the voice of a great multitude, and as the voice of many waters, and as the voice of mighty thunderings, saying, Alleluia: for the Lord God omnipotent reigneth. (Rev 19:6 KJV)
  • Let us be glad and rejoice, and give honour to him: for the marriage of the Lamb is come, and his wife hath made herself ready. (Rev 19:7 KJV)
  • And to her was granted that she should be arrayed in fine linen, clean and white: for the fine linen is the righteousness of saints. (Rev 19:8 KJV)
  • And he saith unto me, Write, Blessed are they which are called unto the marriage supper of the Lamb. And he saith unto me, These are the true sayings of God. (Rev 19:9 KJV)
This is the wedding banquet that will go on for several days. This could be a Feast of the PASSOVER in Jerusalem. This is concerned with Convocation, where there will be the presence of witnesses and friends to witness the wedding ceremony. 

The act of Marriage is an agreement entered into by two people, acknowledging that God is an integral part of the agreement. In the presence of witnesses, the groom then places a ring on the second finger of the Bride’s right hand and declares to the Bride: “Behold, thou art consecrated unto me by this ring according to the Laws of Moses and of Israel." The Groom is saying, "As the laws of Moses and Israel is of Divine origin and bear the seal of truth, so shall our marriage be consecrated. And, as the laws of Moses and Israel forever consecrate all those who enter into its covenant, so shall we be consecrated forever."

Then they proceed to sip wine from the cup of wine.
  • Then He said to them, "I have fervently desired to eat this Passover with you before I suffer. (Luk 22:15)
  • For I tell you, I will not eat it again until it is fulfilled in the Kingdom of God." (Luk 22:16)
Blood is also required here. The Fellowship Meal is the one that happened in the so-called Last supper. Here, in the Nuptial stage, there will be that Wedding Banquet (at the return of Christ), where there will be animal sacrifices that are ritually slaughtered.

3. UNION (Consummation).
This is the Physical and Sexual Phase, which means knowing each other intimately, even in a mystical way. There are 2 kinds of knowing or acquiring knowledge: 1) head knowledge (theory), and 2) experiential knowledge (actual or hands-on). 

This Consummation Stage is the Experiential Knowledge; the knowing each other intimately, even romantically or sexually.

This "knowing each other intimately" unites the physical and spiritual dimensions, even in a mystical way. This is a kind of oneness called ACHDUT in Hebrew. The Groom and the Bride were consecrated for each other, and during this stage they become one.

The husband is consecrated before going inside the Bride. This is similar to that of the consecrated High Priest who is the only one allowed by God to go inside the Holy of Holies, and only during the Day Atonement. Thus, the Husband is set apart to KNOW his wife, in a mystical way. 

Only the consecrated husband should go in the Bride. Any other person that go inside the Bride is an abomination to God. Marriage should be pure, permanent, and eternal. That’s why God hates divorce and adultery. This kind of Holy Marriage demonstrates the eternal oneness and unity of the God Head, which is the top 3 Sefirot of the Ten Sefirot.
