Man is the Head, Woman the Neck Turing the Head.

  In "Understanding Satan's Schemes," we discussed The Darkness and The Light.  Jesus Christ is The Light of The World.  People who love Jesus love Truth and Justice.  How does Isaiah 45:7 get explained? 

I form the light and create darkness, I bring prosperity and create disaster; I, the LORD, do all these things.  (Isaiah 45:7)  

Man is the head.  Man is a decision maker.  Woman is the neck turning the head.  She helps him make decisions.   

• The Song of Songs is in the Bible as an allegory for God's love for Israel or The Church.  
• Throughout the Prophets of the Bible, the allegory of Jerusalem as God's wife has been used.
  
• With Jesus Christ, the Church became Israel.  
• There is a complementary relationship between Christ - Man -Woman.  (1 Corinthians 11:3)
• There are many allegories between faith and marriage.

 Given a young woman would like a husband, she may have dressed nice and put on perfume for a potential suitor. She was looking to turn his head, help him choose her.  

A wife would really like a new expensive purse.  When her husband came home from work, she made him his favorite meal, the house was really clean, and she was particularly nice.  

Husband and wife had been married for five years.  The wife lost respect for her husband, or didn't have respect for him in the first place.  She would like a divorce.  She does things to make her husband miserable.  She uses the shower head instead of doing her wifely duties.  She is cold to him after work, and they don't talk much.  She has a bad attitude.  

In the Old Testament, given Israel did well, they were following the Laws of Moses, and more righteous.  David and Solomon were blessed.  The Kingdom of Israel did well under David and Solomon.  Given Israel fell away, they may have become oppressed.  Bad things and misery were headed Israel's way.  

Imagine a King.  A King has various laws and traditions he follows.  Given he doesn't follow these laws and traditions, he may lose respect from his nobles, and there could be civil war. 

God Almighty has Law.  This is not The Laws of Moses but Spiritual Law. There are particular ways in which God judges things.  Given man was wicked, doing the wrong things, a society, like Great Britain, may have ended up in darkness.  God may have removed his hand of protection, and allowed in various spirits "Not God."  Given a society would like good things and blessing, they are choosing God and righteousness, and following the words of Jesus.  

It has been hard for people to see the relationship between God - Man -Woman in Feminism.  There are allegories between marriage and faith, and those are hard to see in Feminism. Marxist Betty Friedan Feminism was divisive, looking to split woman from man, to where woman is more married to the state than to her husband.  Someone who, with their soul, loved Feminism and Secular Humanism, they are going to hate "Man is the head, woman the neck turning the head."  It is a different type of thinking with implication.  Was someone in darkness or The Light of the Lord?  

Something to reflect and pray on. 

Understanding Satan's Schemes. (2 Corinthains 2:11)

 Who exactly is Satan?  Understanding, and being aware of Satan, is a major part of growing in faith with God, and being able to see.  Someone needs to start with God, and be reading their Bible.  God has a character.   Off of God, we may be able to see things "Not-God."  There are other players out there.  

Socratic Paradox -  Given all men are out to do what is good, or in their best interests, how can evil exist? 

We can answer this paradox with the existence off Satan.  Satan was a liar.  He worked to put skew man's perspectives. 

For you were once darkness, but now you are light in the Lord. Live as children of light  (Ephesians 5:8) 

What is darkness?  Darkness is lies and false perceptions.  Satan was known as The Lord of Lies, the Prince of Darkness.  Husband and wife, they are sitting on the couch.  Husband asks his wife, "Where is the TV remote?"  She says "It is under the couch."  She lied.  She had hid it in her purse.  For about five minutes or so, her husband may be in "The Dark."  He starts looking for the TV remote under the couch, but it is not there.  He figures out quickly that his wife lied to him, and he gets angry.  This is an example is a small lie.  Given there was a false prophet or false teacher, generations of men, they could have ended up in darkness.  God judges the false teachers more harshly.  (Matthew 18:6)(James 3:1) 

Muhammad was a false prophet.  Muhammad went to the ancestors of Ishmael, and said it was Ishmael who was to be sacrificed by Abraham.  All the prophets of the Bible, they knew it to be Isaac.  This is a point of pride.  Satan worked on points of pride.  It is also a "Point of Intersection."  At this point of intersection, concerning whom Abraham was to sacrifice, a lie was told, and perspectives skewed.  Black Magic Satanism worked on Points of Intersection.  In Academia, given we find a Professor talking about "Intersectionality," that may have been a Satanist.  Personally, I would ask such a person some probing questions or make probing comments.  I may name drop Aleister Crowley.  Given a Professor seemed knowledgeable about the topic, or had a strong opinion one way or another, that was a Satanist. 

In Dante's "Divine Comedy," Muhammad was at the bottom of hell.  God judges the false teachers more harshly.  A false teacher, a false prophet, they may have put generations of men into darkness.  

Satan was a thief.  He liked to steal things from Christians. 

• Humanism came from Christian Theologians.  We have "Secular Humanism," a corruption.  
• Progress, like Progressivism, Progress is a "City Upon a Hill."  Progress is a The Kingdom of God, and the Kingdom of God has particular values.  Progressivism came out of Christian Churches.  Progressivism has been shanghaied by Satan.  In 2019, was progress having men in girl's bathrooms?  
• Awake is something particular in the Bible.  (Ezekiel 12:2)(Proverbs 20:12)(Isaiah 42:7)(Matthew 13:15-17)  Awake may be like Stephen, seeing God in heaven before he died. (Acts 7:55)  Woke would be a corruption.  Woke came from people more similar to Rev Jesse Jackson,  Freemason,and his rainbow coalition.  Both Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton, they had a particular mysticism.  
• Bad Company corrupts good character.  (1 Corinthians 15:33)   When someone hears the term "Bad Company," do they think of the Bible verse, or do they think of the band Bad Company singing the song "Bad Company?"  
• Was something "Wicked Awesome?"  Did people mistake good for bad and bad for Good?  (Isaiah 5:20)  

These are examples of Satan being a liar and a thief.  LGBT is a social construct.  There has been a lot of Spiritual Warfare going on around LGBT.  When they took a rainbow as their flag, did that come from Rev Jesse Jackson and his Rainbow Coalition?  Words like Islamophobe, and Homophobe, they are made up words.  Those are words that came from somewhere particular around Academia,  They are words meant to twist and bind up Christians, and put Christians into a cage.  A lot of spiritual warfare has come from "Secular Humanist" people in Academia.  Where we are finding these types of words, and spiritual warfare, there may have been some Occult Satanism going on, like "Eyes Wide Shut."

In 2024, there were Anti-Israel protests on college campuses.  Islam and Secular Humanism, they have been in an Unholy Alliance for decades.  Secular Humanists, Satanists, they have been feeding Islam.  The enemy of my enemy is my friend?  We may be able to see evidence of this Unholy Alliance in the protests on college campuses in 2024.  How exactly do we end up  with LGBT Pro-Hamas protestors?  There was an unholy alliance between Secular Humanism and Islam. 

Satan and his schemes, is a big topic.  I may write some more about it later.
