Kinda judgemental huh?

I suggest you read and understand Revelation 22.18

You are on dangerous ground when you rewrite Scripture.
I wouldn't worry to much about this Crazy Pentecostal that's claiming that Yahweh is speaking direct revelation to him, this is a normal thing to him as you can see, A Lack of Fear of God if you ask me.

Your corect thats not all, about women. Back to square "One thing is needful and Marie (Magdalene) has chosen that good part that will not be taken from her." Paul also made mention of single women tending on the Lord without distraction, and he encouraged widows that it was better for them to remain single. As you may kmow its more dificult for men, some battle there for most of us. Im getting Married with God's blessing thus far in the coming year, after I retire from work.
How can you say it is more difficult for men than women? Christ said to whom much is given, much is required (Luke 12:48). He also said Thomas because you see, you believe. But blessed are they that don't see and believe (John 20:29).

So, can you look at a man or woman and tell how much they have been given? Can you tell how much they have seen? I didn't think so. Maybe we had better back up and quit judging. I feel women have it harder, because their jobs are in the background. We men get more edification, when we get to see the results of our endeavors.

The first part of your reply is a misunderstanding of what I wrote. But am exhausted of arguments and need to walk away. This was not ment to compare the disciples who were put to death (bering the cross), to compare with women such as Mary Magdalene who was the first to aprehend Grace to suffer with Christ, just not phisical pain, or Marie the mother of Jesus who was propgesied that a sword would pearce through her heart, the here I wonder wether it refers to Jesus beimg her heart. Women seem to understand childlike Faith easier than men. But here I can see why the message of salvation in most churches is limited to a mesage for babes in Christ and that going on to maturity is a Journey alone with the Holy Spirit. Because until we are past quareling that's all we can handle.

Hi Magenta, I just mentioned you in the previous responce hope you like my amend. I learned this from the four year old boy who went to heaven and back. He was told he could sit back and watch the final battle because women and children dont have to fight. Tho he is hardly a child now that we are entering the final battle.
How is that possible when Paul was not allowed to talk of such things? , instead he was given a thorn in his side to keep him humble...

I like that you express disagreement with a question. It's refreshing, your approach is so refreshing it's calming from those in trouble. People from all over the world are encountering Jesus in Spirit especially in the US. We are in the final battle and I believe this is to encourage us. The enenies plan is to cause division in the Church to overtrow Faith. Paul mentioned having been cough up to the Third heaven and there was things he was not permitted to say. Note the difference. This boys experience was not intended to be in the topic but I have no regrets; facing damed if you do and damed if you don't. Men with the natural leader personality (alpha male are insecure and need control: quarel. I don't want to overwhelm you with a lot of information either, but your asking a question that I should answer. My favorite acount is:
I would be hapy to hear from you since your polite with diferences of opinion. There is a baby who encountered Jesus. NO one can argue her, the video is short and to the point, copy in browser.

In the time of trouble such as never was, "Behold darkness comes on the earth and gross darkness on the people, but light is risen on you." Those with clean hands and a pure heart. Our part is to walk in the Light as He is in the Light and have fellowship one with Another and the blood of Jesus cleanses us from all unrighteousness.

I don't think anyone else would misinterpret that I was referring to Marie Magdalene and Marie the Mother of Jesus as well. But you might like to know that you have caused me grief, and that the Lord works all things for good as we continue un his Love

I would think any grief you feel comes from you, not I. It is truly sad that you have such a warped understanding of God's Word.

I will pray the Holy Spirit can cut through the dense fog enshrouding your mind, and let you truly see what God's Word says.

You tread dangerous ground when you make up additions to Scripture under the guise of prophetic revelation.

Where in Scripture is found the woman questioning Christ about His yolk? Start with that falsehood, then review the rest of your writings on your Profile Page.

We are judged with the judgment we judge with: so from my point of view you are being hard on yourself and greaving the me and the Holy Spirit. The woman in question shared in the Church what she told the Lord and His tesponce to her. To let her know she was mot under His yoke. If I refer to scripture in my writing there are quotes like this "Christ is made to us wisdom from God."
But look at the judgment you judge yourself with. You scare me, unless you face the Lord to turn to Him I won't be able to respond. "With an angry man you shall not go, lest you learn his ways and be like Him."
