Women as Apostles?

!! This is an Important Last Days Message to the Body of Christ !!

Women as Apostles?

I wrote the basics of this letter in response to some attacks against me after
writing Vol. 4 of the newsletters. Since that time I have faced many such attacks
and if there was anyone who would like it to be different, it would be me. However
the Lord did not consult me about His Creation. He did not consult me about
His Order and Ways. Neither did He consult you, whosoever you are.

When the Lord gave me the Command to Gather His Apostles, I asked Him then
if He had called women to be Apostles. His answer was NO He had not called
any women to be Apostles. On Three separate occasions since then, He has
told me the same.

I did not want to deal with the issue. I mean, who would want to publish
this when it might offend half the population??  But half the population,
should not be offended by God's Word, Order or Ways. He is the Creator. The
Lord told me to publish it, then chastened me about it for eight months
because I was too cowardly to address the issue. Yet I am called by God to
Gather His Apostles and to Call for Order in His Church.

I was attacked immediately with great outrage. I was threatened in many
ways. The same devices and words used in women's lib were hurled at me.

There was nothing in my newsletter to demean women. There was no abuse. This
writing is against no one. It is however in favor of restoring God's Order
and Ways for His Church.

Somehow it was assumed that I would have some ulterior motives. Macho, Guy
thing etc. Boys Club. This is very insulting, very demeaning.

The outrage and threats of war and alienation are exactly why so many don't
address this from the Word of God. It is exactly why we have so much
abortion in the United States. No politician can vote against abortion and
stay in office. If he or she does, it is seen as a vote against women's rights. This is why we have abortion. Marriage and family have been threatened like never before. Are women leading? Is it God's will for women to lead?
Read-Isaiah 3:12

The Order of God's Authority was given in the beginning even before the fall
of man, when there was no curse. His Order extends far beyond the Churches
even to the natural order of this world He created. Satan has always worked
among men to pervert God's Order and ways.

Gen 2:16 And the LORD God commanded the man, saying, Of every tree of the
garden thou mayest freely eat:
Gen 2:17 But of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, thou shalt not
eat of it: for in the day that thou eatest thereof thou shalt surely die.

This command came from the mouth of God to the man before the woman was
made. God gave the man authority to give names to His Creation even before
the woman was.

Gen 2:20 And Adam gave names to all cattle, and to the fowl of the air, and
to every beast of the field; but for Adam there was not found a help meet
for him.
Gen 2:21 And the LORD God caused a deep sleep to fall upon Adam, and he
slept: and he took one of his ribs, and closed up the flesh instead thereof;
Gen 2:22 And the rib, which the LORD God had taken from man, made he a
woman, and brought her unto the man.
Gen 2:23 And Adam said, This is now bone of my bones, and flesh of my flesh:
she shall be called Woman, because she was taken out of Man.
Gen 2:24 Therefore shall a man leave his father and his mother, and shall
cleave unto his wife: and they shall be one flesh.
Gen 2:25 And they were both naked, the man and his wife, and were not
ashamed.

The down fall of all mankind, came when the man listened to and followed
his wife rather than God. One simple act of disobedience to God's Word, Will
and Order, cursed all of mankind.

Gen 3:12 And the man said, The woman whom thou gavest to be with me, she
gave me of the tree, and I did eat.
Gen 3:13 And the LORD God said unto the woman, What is this that thou hast
done? And the woman said, The serpent beguiled me, and I did eat.
Gen 3:14 And the LORD God said unto the serpent, Because thou hast done
this, thou art cursed above all cattle, and above every beast of the field;
upon thy belly shalt thou go, and dust shalt thou eat all the days of thy
life:
Gen 3:15 And I will put enmity between thee and the woman, and between thy
seed and her seed; it shall bruise thy head, and thou shalt bruise his heel.
Gen 3:16 Unto the woman he said, I will greatly multiply thy sorrow and thy
conception; in sorrow thou shalt bring forth children; and thy desire shall
be to thy husband, and he shall rule over thee
Gen 3:17 And unto Adam he said, Because thou hast hearkened unto the voice
of thy wife, and hast eaten of the tree, of which I commanded thee, saying,
Thou shalt not eat of it: cursed is the ground for thy sake; in sorrow shalt
thou eat of it all the days of thy life;

It should be obvious to all, world without end, that the Lord God Creator of
all things, was not pleased with the disobedience to His Word and His Order.
God did delegate an Order of Authority from the beginning. Can we become
cursed today trashing God's Word, Will and Order. The answer is YES. Yet
there are so many today who want what they want no matter what the Lord says
and they will destroy any man who does not agree with them. None seem to
consider the consequences to their actions to the Church, family, society or fear
the judgments of God.

Our present day society is a perverse society. It cannot be the standard set
against God's word. We are living in the most perverse generation since the
days of Noah and it is waxing worse.

I have watched women desperately looking for loopholes in the word of God.
One is in Galatians Chapter 3. When read in context, it is teaching the
Church the Body of Christ that we are the Children of God, of the Same
family, with No Divisions. This scripture is saying that there should be no
division between us because of gender, nationality, or even slavery. We are
all one in Christ. It is one of the most beautiful teachings in the word.
You never hear it preached as it was intended anymore. Instead vs. 28 is
constantly preached out of Context to justify women leading God's people.
They use it to try to prove that there is no gender. The Word of God does
most definitely address gender.  But too many have taken Vs. 28 to cancel
and negate (To make ineffective or invalid; nullify) the words of the
Prophets and the Word of God. To take this scripture out of context changing the entire meaning of it to suit their own desires. This is an abomination. The original and true meaning of this writing is being lost to the Body of Christ.
Galatians Chapter 3 read the entire Chapter in context.

Gal 3:26 For ye are all the children of God by faith in Christ Jesus.
Gal 3:27 For as many of you as have been baptized into Christ have put on
Christ.
Gal 3:28 There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither bond nor free,
there is neither male nor female: for ye are all one in Christ Jesus.
Gal 3:29 And if ye be Christ's, then are ye Abraham's seed, and heirs
according to the promise.

Paul who wrote this also wrote on the subject of women, which I too have
trouble with. Paul was not speaking in contradiction to his own teachings.

Things are very perverted in our Society in every area. This is as the Days
of Noah. None of us can fix it. I am not trying. I have only one direction
at this time and that is to obey God in this Gathering of His Apostles to
Call His Church to Order. Not False Apostles, Not politically correct
Apostles.

There is even a scripture in Romans where Paul speaks of some one named
Junia as fellow prisoner and named with the Apostles. Paul is clear that
Junia is a fellow prisoner. Romans 16 vs. 7; Salute Andronicus and Junia, my
kinsmen (husband and wife even as Aquila and Priscilla are husband and
wife), and my fellow prisoners, who are of NOTE among the apostles, who also
were in Christ before me. This says that they are of NOTE among the
Apostles. It does not say that they are Apostles. Could they have been of
NOTE among the Apostles because they were such a great help? I have heard
some call Priscilla an Apostle but the word is clear that she is the wife of
Aquila. And they are called Paul's helpers in Christ Jesus. I have even seen
one woman using this to prove her point in an article about women in
ministry. She wrote as though Aquila and Priscilla were both women. It is
dangerous to teach wrong doctrine and Order.

God loves His Daughters and uses them in mighty ways. I have thought that
Mary Magdalene would have made a better Apostle. She loved Jesus deeply and
He obviously loved her very deeply. He stopped on His way to sprinkle His
blood on the Mercy seat of God, to console her at the tomb. She understood
the salvation of the Lord better than any of the Apostles.

Jesus could have very easily called her as an Apostle and sacrificed her for
His Gospel and to show His Will and Order for the Church. But He did not and
I am sure it was because it wasn't the Will of God to Send forth women as
Apostles. The Lord poured out His Spirit on His Servants and Handmaidens in
the beginning of the Church. It isn't something that is just now happening.
We are not seeing the fruits we should be seeing because man is not willing
to accept God's Word, Ways and Order.

In Numbers Chapter 30 Moses spake unto the heads of the tribes concerning
the children of Israel, saying, This is the thing which the Lord hath
commanded. This chapter shows clearly God's order of authority (Read Numbers
Chapter 30 it is a short read). Was Moses just unenlightened or was he
speaking the oracles of God. In verse 16 It says These are the statutes,
which the Lord commanded Moses,.....
 Chapter 30 - Rules governing vows

Num 30:1 And Moses spoke unto the heads of the tribes concerning the
children of Israel, saying, This is the thing which the LORD hath commanded.
Num 30:2 If a man vow a vow unto the LORD, or swear an oath to bind his soul
with a bond; he shall not break his word, he shall do according to all that
proceedeth out of his mouth.
Num 30:3 If a woman also vow a vow unto the LORD, and bind herself by a
bond, being in her father's house in her youth;
Num 30:4 And her father hear her vow, and her bond wherewith she hath bound
her soul, and her father shall hold his peace at her: then all her vows
shall stand, and every bond wherewith she hath bound her soul shall stand.
Num 30:5 But if her father disallow her in the day that he heareth; not any
of her vows, or of her bonds wherewith she hath bound her soul, shall stand:
and the LORD shall forgive her, because her father disallowed her.
Num 30:6 And if she had at all a husband, when she vowed, or uttered aught
out of her lips, wherewith she bound her soul;
Num 30:7 And her husband heard it, and held his peace at her in the day that
he heard it: then her vows shall stand, and her bonds wherewith she bound
her soul shall stand.
Num 30:8 But if her husband disallowed her on the day that he heard it; then
he shall make her vow which she vowed, and that which she uttered with her
lips, wherewith she bound her soul, of none effect: and the LORD shall
forgive her.
Num 30:9 But every vow of a widow, and of her that is divorced, wherewith
they have bound their souls, shall stand against her.
Num 30:10 And if she vowed in her husband's house, or bound her soul by a
bond with an oath;
Num 30:11 And her husband heard it, and held his peace at her, and
disallowed her not: then all her vows shall stand, and every bond wherewith
she bound her soul shall stand.
Num 30:12 But if her husband hath utterly made them void on the day he heard
them; then whatsoever proceeded out of her lips concerning her vows, or
concerning the bond of her soul, shall not stand: her husband hath made them
void; and the LORD shall forgive her.
Num 30:13 Every vow, and every binding oath to afflict the soul, her husband
may establish it, or her husband may make it void.
Num 30:14 But if her husband altogether hold his peace at her from day to
day; then he establisheth all her vows, or all her bonds, which are upon
her: he confirmeth them, because he held his peace at her in the day that he
heard them.
Num 30:15 But if he shall any ways make them void after that he hath heard
them; then he shall bear her iniquity.
Num 30:16 These are the statutes, which the LORD commanded Moses, between a
man and his wife, between the father and his daughter, being yet in her
youth in her father's house.

What if Moses, Isaiah, and Paul really were servants of God speaking the
oracles of God? What if they weren't just unenlightened men who could not
have understood? What of Jesus, who could have appointed a very special
woman as an Apostle but did not?
 Isaiah Chapter 3 -  Judgment on Judah and Jerusalem
 Isa 3:11 Woe unto the wicked! it shall be ill with him: for the reward of
his hands shall be given him.
Isa 3:12 As for my people, children are their oppressors, and women rule
over them. O my people, they which lead thee cause thee to err, and destroy
the way of thy paths.

This verse describes some of what our society is coming into more and more.
This verse shows a position of being cursed not blessed. We should not and
cannot take the posture of the curse.

These are just a few that you could be warring against. I didn't write the
Word of God. Nor did any man in this generation. But we are called to be
wise, not fools, changing the Word, Will and Ways of God to suit our selves.

A True Prophet or an Apostle must walk with the Lord as their only covering.
The word of God does deal with gender. A Prophetess is female a Prophet is
male. There are no examples of women being called a prophet after the order
of any of the Major Prophets. There is an order of Authority given by God.

I don't believe that God ever intended for any of His people to be demeaned
by His Word or His Order. But rather Blessed and Edified. To revoke His
Word, His Ways and His Order is rebellion. Satan has always set about to
pervert God's Order and Ways. Satan has gone to the woman to try to bring
rebellion to God's Word, Order and Ways many times. Satan wants to Usurp the
Authority of God's Servants especially Apostles and Prophets.

On this Subject of Calling the Lord's Church to Order it is time for
maturity and a willingness to accept what God says over everything else. I
have seen many try to handle this like it is a Children's Sunday school (like a game) and with no fear of God.

I can promise you it would be better for me and easier for me if the Lord
had called women as Apostles. It wouldn't threaten me or change who I am or
what I am called to do and be. I am sure of this.

I have seen more than a few women who call themselves Apostles. I have read
their testimonies. The same spirit that has told them they are Apostles
(God?) gives them these incredible callings, I mean greater than any man
ever received of the Lord. Serious visions of Grandeur. Would Satan who
deceives and perverts God's Word and Order deliver such messages?
Emphatically YES!! Does Satan appeal to Vanity? Some of these Women can
actually make God say anything they want??? Especially when it comes to
cursing the Servants of God who do not agree. I can think of two who have
had great revelations from God that make Evangelizing the World of no
importance. One says everyone will be saved in the Millennium another is
Sure that reincarnation makes certain that if they are not saved now they
will be saved in another life. Can you see here the hand of Satan to stop
God's people from following the Command of the Lord to take this Gospel into all
the World? Regardless of Gender I would have no respect for this. But what
we need to see here is the deceptions of Satan. None of these women will
admit that they could be deceived, not for a minute and regardless of what
the Word of God says. I have had several tell me God is doing a new thing. Can
you really believe the Lord is happy with this?

Would Satan could Satan begin telling women that unless they are allowed to
lead the people of God they are considered second class citizens? Yes, absolutely. Is it True? Not at all, that is a lie.

After the first Gathering, a woman was introduced to the Apostles Gathering
Fellowship; through a back door I might add. If she had been allowed a foothold, she would most definitely have been trying to lead the Apostles of God.

This was her testimony to us along with a prophecy and trying to affirm that there is no Gender.
"I, Chris, was told by our Lord approx. two years ago that I would help Him
build His church, and that I was to begin by placing the stones in their
proper place.  This, I believe, is why our Lord is speaking through me to your group.  This is my purpose in relationship to this group at this time.    Love, Chris"

According to this, She is to begin placing the Stones of God's Church in
their proper place. This is another example of a truly Grand Calling greater
than any man ever received from the Lord. But it is in direct opposition to
the Word of God, His Order, His Will, and His Ways. When you hear someone
trying to say that there is no Gender according to Gal. Chapter 3 vs. 28 a
red flag should go up. I am convinced that if this had gone unchecked the
Lord would have been sorely displeased.

Jesus the Head of the Church will lead His Apostles and His people. Jesus
the Builder of His Church will place the stones in their proper place. We
must have wisdom and discernment these are perilous times and there is much
deception. This is why this teaching is so necessary.

Again, there is no evidence whatsoever that the Lord intends for women to
lead His People. This would be in direct opposition to the Word of God.
The Apostle Paul was teamed up with many women but they were not called
Apostles. Once Again, I can promise you it would be better for me and easier
for me if the Lord had called women as Apostles. It wouldn't threaten me or
change who I am or what I am called to do and be. I have nothing against women but I do have something against those who would help Satan pervert the word of God and His Order for the Church. Beware of FALSE DOCTRINES that make your faith in vain.

It has always been easier and more profitable financially to tell people what they
want to hear. There are men of high visibility and popularity among
Christians, who are preaching and teaching a sociological and psychological
message replacing the Word, Will and Order of God on this subject among God’s
people. Remember, the Serpent BEGUILED Eve by telling Eve what she wanted to
hear. The serpent had no power to force his will on her. By deceiving her,
the Serpent (Satan), accomplished his PURPOSE. It grieves me to see men who should be servants of God playing the part of the Serpent six thousand years later. I
wonder How the Lord feels about this. Are you to be so easily manipulated?

Unfortunately, there has been a conditioning going on for some time now that makes people think that they can use their giving as a vote on God’s servants and the doctrines they teach. This does only encourage wrong doctrine. At least one ministry has come straight out asking people to actively and literally vote, on who they want to see and hear. The more popular the ministry the more money that comes in. Is this God’s Way? No! Psa 119:89  Forever, O LORD, thy word is settled in heaven.

The Lord God Almighty’s Word, Will, Ways and His Order, are not up for a vote. Can your giving truly be blessed by using your money to try to see the doctrines you want, established among men? The Body of Christ cannot afford to follow after the ways of this World.

At a very critical time in History, when we should be repenting with
all of our hearts and submitting our wills to the Will of the Father, the
rebellion even in the Churches is more blatantly evil than ever. We should be
afraid, not of man, not of the World, but of How God may respond.

God Bless You
