For those liberals who think homemakers cannot think for themselves.
Those who follow the liberal agenda are the ones who do not think for themselves. They are more concerned about impressing people than they are about taking care of important matters in their families.
Liberals elevate women who go into the teaching profession as having a career and yet the women at home are teaching, as well as many other diverse jobs that are never spoken of by the liberals, I guess it's the paycheck and prestige that the liberals covet.
Liberals are not satisfied speaking for themselves and doing what they wish to do, they must mock and intimidate women who have made a different choice than they.
Liberals are basically narcissists, they cannot validate anyone who is not just like them. They tend to pretend that all women want what they want and should do what they do. They even lie and "speak for all women", when they are in a public forum.
I am here to tell you that women's libbers do not speak for me. I know many other women who feel as I do about this, they have told me so. We are women who think for ourselves and are not intimidated into doing what others do just to appear superior or special. We are content to live and believe as we choose no matter what anyone else thinks.
Narcissistic liberals hate those who have proven to be happy being homemakers and supporters of their husbands and children. Have you ever asked why women's libbers must work to convince women to leave the duties of their homes, place their children in the hands of others to teach them and neglect the support of their husbands? Its really quite simple, the devil hates families. Women's libbers are controlled by the devil. They think their thoughts are their own but in fact, they have been whispered to just as Eve was in the garden where the devil convinced her to distrust God and all His ways.
For as long as mankind has been around the devil has worked to turn Adam and Eve against each other and against God through selfishness and bondage to sin.
If the devil can fool the people into thinking they should hate their God-given roles in favor of something more exotic, he will manage to move them out of their roles and into the trap that brings bondage, while convincing them they are freer. It's an illusion that the devil foists on anyone who is weak-minded. He uses peer pressure on those who are more invested in being liked or seen as special than they understand the blessing of the family.
Women are in bondage more than ever in our culture. When they work for someone else in a career they must obey the boss to keep their job. Why is this any less bondage than managing a household?
A woman at home makes her own schedule, shops when she pleases for the goods for the household, decorates, meal plans make the rules for the household as well as everything else that needs to be taken care of within the household. She also does volunteer work, encourages those within her household to excel in whatever their personal bent happens to be. She works alongside her husband in his ventures.
It is a myth that the career woman is freer than the homemaker. The homemaker according to the Proverbs 31 woman is very creative and makes many of her own decisions. She consults with her husband in some areas but is the manager of the home. And he consults with her at times, they are a team. His part is to earn the money and run the government and her job is to be the help in these accomplishments. When a woman does her job at home her husband is freed up to dedicate his time to these other things. He trusts her to run the household while he is running a business.
Her husband does not dictate what she can and cannot do but she consults with him as anyone in any position would do to clarify needs and responsibilities. The husband also needs to consult with his wife at times to see a perspective he may not have. Together they are a stronger force than if each one did only their own thing. No one, no matter what job it is, works completely alone without input from others.
The husband is the head of the household, he leads by teaching and kindness, not by coercion or intimidation. She follows her husband when he is obeying God and corrects him when he steps off the path to help him return to the path. The husband does the same for his wife. No man or woman is an island unto themselves. All members of a team work together if they are to win the prize.
The devil loves to take what is good and productive and destroy it. One of his names is the destroyer, Abaddon in Hebrew meaning "destroyer."
In these days of apostasy, the devil has attempted to make believers feel foolish about doing what is right through the mocking and intimidation of the unsaved. Sadly we see this within the church too. Even more disturbing is that Christians have fallen into many of the same traps.
Those who are mostly focused on this world and worldly success will pressure others to follow the culture. If you find yourself being demeaned, mocked and avoided for your choice to obey God, you can count it all joy that you are obeying Him.
James 1:2-8
2 Consider it all joy, my brethren, when you encounter various trials,
3 knowing that the testing of your faith produces endurance.
4 And let endurance have its perfect result, so that you may be perfect and complete, lacking in nothing.
5 But if any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask of God, who gives to all generously and without reproach, and it will be given to him.
6 But he must ask in faith without any doubting, for the one who doubts is like the surf of the sea, driven and tossed by the wind. 7 For that man ought not to expect that he will receive anything from the Lord,
8 being a double-minded man, unstable in all his ways."

The Holocaust of 1944!!!
When we visited the holocaust museum in Israel it was absolutely haunting as we stood in a darkened domed room. Every two seconds or so a face of one of the children would light up on the ceiling and their name was called out. I cried as I watched each face come upon that dome. There were so many children, only the devil could do a thing like this. I am convinced those little ones are with God today and perhaps one day we will meet them in heaven.
History does repeat because the generation who were not alive at the time do not take it nearly as seriously as the one who experienced that time in history. I was born only a few years after all this mess, but I heard about it many times as the television showed what happened after the war.
The most astounding film I ever saw, the most gruesome and devastating I ever saw was called; "Let My People Go."
I was familiar with bullying most of my life but this was beyond human bullying it was demonic.

ON THIS DAY IN 1944, 800 GYPSY CHILDREN ARE GASSED AT AUSCHWITZ
The Holy Spirit Our Righteousness
Anyone who has the Holy Spirit will be convicted immediately of their sin.
However, if we ignore Him He can go silent and allow the consequences of our stubbornness to teach us.
Our prayers will not be answered as long as we are in sin and we will regress in wisdom. I have seen it so many times, that believers who will not listen to a rebuke from God's word suddenly seem to have lost their discernment and the right-thinking until the consequences become so big that they can no longer ignore the discipline from God through consequences.
If the sin is not dealt with before they die then there are lost rewards in heaven.
1 Corinthians 2:10 By the grace God has given me, I laid a foundation as a wise builder, and someone else is building on it. But each one should build with care.
11 For no one can lay any foundation other than the one already laid, which is Jesus Christ.
12 If anyone builds on this foundation using gold, silver, costly stones, wood, hay or straw,
13 their work will be shown for what it is because the Day will bring it to light. It will be revealed with fire, and the fire will test the quality of each person’s work.
14 If what has been built survives, the builder will receive a reward.
15 If it is burned up, the builder will suffer loss but yet will be saved—even though only as one escaping through the flames.
16 Don’t you know that you yourselves are God’s temple and that God’s Spirit dwells in your midst?
17 If anyone destroys God’s temple, God will destroy that person; for God’s temple is sacred, and you together are that temple.
18 Do not deceive yourselves. If any of you think you are wise by the standards of this age, you should become “fools” so that you may become wise.
19 For the wisdom of this world is foolishness in God’s sight. As it is written: “He catches the wise in their craftiness”;
20 and again, “The Lord knows that the thoughts of the wise are futile.”
21 So then, no more boasting about human leaders! All things are yours,
22 whether Paul or Apollos or Cephas or the world or life or death or the present or the future—all are yours,
23 and you are of Christ, and Christ is of God.
2 Corinthians 5:10
"For we must all appear before the judgment seat of Christ, so that each one may receive what is due for what he has done in the body, whether good or evil."
Unsaved people will be judged and go to hell for not trusting in Christ. The born again believers will be judged according to their rewards not according to salvation. Those deeds done by Christ in us will remain, anything done in the flesh will burn off and not be counted for a reward.
Even good deeds that God never told us to do will not be counted. Only those deeds that Christ did in us will be counted.
James 1:12 (ESV)
12 Blessed is the man who remains steadfast under trial, for when he has stood the test he will receive the crown of life, which God has promised to those who love him.
Some people will have little reward and others a lot, that decision is entirely up to God.
As for me, I want to bless God as much as I can just because I love Him because He loved me so much that He died to pay for my sin. There is no greater love than this!!!
John 15:12-15 "12 This is My commandment, that you love one another as I have loved you. 13 Greater love has no one than this, that he lay down his life for his friends. 14 You are My friends if you do what I command you.…"

Obedience to God is First, Ask Sapphira!
"It is easier to fool people than to convince people they have been fooled." Mark Twain
All the lies that have been accepted within the Church are difficult to remove because they are based on appealing to emotion rather than rational thinking.
Many people in many gatherings have been intimidated into relying on the "pastors" rather than the Holy Spirit Who lives in them.
Those who rely on people will be caught up in much deception and false doctrine. Those who trust the Holy Spirit will have wisdom greater than most and will be seen as trouble makers by the many.
The church is full of narcissists in our day. Many people are proud of their allegiance to a man, the preacher while demeaning those who may have great wisdom but are seen as someone who does not have a degree, therefore, they cannot know the truth.
2 Timothy 3 is a description of the end times apostate church. God said these people would have a form of religion but deny the real God. As born again believers we do not have religion, we have a relationship with Christ and He lives in us. We do not indulge in meaningless feel-good rituals as most people do, we live each day trusting the Holy Spirit to guide and train us.
And, make no mistake, the protestant church has as many wrong beliefs and rituals as does the Catholic church, but since they are different from the Catholics they think they don't have any.
We used to hear this in the Catholic church, "only the priests can know" mentality restricted people and intimidated them into falling in line with false doctrine. Now in the protestant church, the people treat the hierarchy, that is "pastors" of the gatherings the same way we used to treat the priests, as though they could do no wrong and no one should question them.
God's church does not recognize "pastors" as the authority, it is not a title or a position, it is a calling and according to scripture, there should be two or more in the gathering.
When we rely on men we have an idol, even if that man is your husband. Wives must share their Holy Spirit views with their husbands, especially when the husband is beginning down the wrong path. Since husbands just like wives are not perfect they too need accountability and input when they have tunnel vision. We all have tunnel vision and need input from one another at times.
There are as many women as men who are on the wrong path thinking they are popular so they must be right. The truth is there is a God-ordained order in the church, men are to lead and women are to be the support.
"Helpmeet" has the connotation of being a counselor and advisor to the men. Support when the man is obeying God and a counselor when the men may have a blindspot.
We are never to obey anyone, pastor or husband when they are disobeying God.
Ananias and Sapphira is a good example in which the wife, Sapphira obeyed her husband and died along with him. Perhaps the story would have been different if the wife had attempted to talk her husband out of lying they might have both lived. Or if the wife refused to disobey God but the husband would remain stubborn then I am confident the wife would have lived while the husband died.
Ezekiel 33:8-9 "…8 If I say to the wicked, ‘O wicked man, you will surely die,’ but you do not speak out to dissuade him from his way, then that wicked man will die in his iniquity, yet I will hold you accountable for his blood. 9 But if you warn the wicked man to turn from his way, and he does not turn from it, he will die in his iniquity, but you will have saved your life."
Ezekiel 18:20-21 "20 The soul who sins is the one who will die. A son will not bear the iniquity of the father, and a father will not bear the iniquity of the son. The righteousness of the righteous man will fall upon him, and the wickedness of the wicked man will fall upon him. 21 But if the wicked man turns from all the sins he has committed, keeps all My statutes, and does what is just and right, he will surely live; he will not die.…"
A woman is not responsible for the sins of her husband unless she declines to influence him to do what is right. If she will not speak up and goes along with the sin of the husband she will be responsible too. The sinning husband will be responsible for influencing the wife to sin and also for his own sin.
A woman will be counted as righteous when she obeys God even if her husband will not listen to her.
Each individual is responsible before God to obey Him. No one will be able to say at the judgment; "but Lord my husband told me to do it." We know from the account of Ananias and Sapphira that obeying anyone else in sin is to disobey God.
Acts 5:29 " 29But Peter and the other apostles replied, “We must obey God rather than men. "
Ladies if you love your husband you will tell him the truth of God and if he does not listen then you must stop speaking and go over his head to Christ, leaving there with him while continuing to walk in obedience to Christ yourself.
