DFW CENTRAL: well off, easily triggered, WASP, Evil Eye, WELP Wonderland, as I was NOT RAISED IN IT OR BY IT …or AROUND IT or UNDER it. (submission-itis). I was raised respected and FREE. (these are prophetic charismatic LP not the denominationals) And now I Bible correct for it targets lone women, strangers, aliens, the atypical and fosters never ending word curse theology…and occult subliminal occult divining, praying against, rumoring against, rather ‘I John 1:7, face to face respectful Galatians 6:1, submission to Matthew 18:15 for the perceived purpose to control, to block, to thwart “disrespected stereotypes” and this also sometimes includes Boys Will Be Boys Eli Temple High Priesthood 1 Samuel Big Boy targeting misogynist. Over all it is ANTI the cause of Christ it withstand pure respectful Pauline Ephesians 4 community, and is turf protecting and systems, with cults to the highest form. It is self preferring, big gentrified and Elevated Patriarchian aristocrat submission Who’s over WHOM ‘showbiz and mean streak anti NEW VISITORS accustomed, cloned totalitarian which is Christ’s Prophet Office OPPOSITE due to the “respecter of persons” and little g ‘god of LP pecking. Also, It is HUGE.

Submitted as respectful Selah, not as hard core dogmatic authoritarian non contrite dogma

THE HISTORY OF CHURCH SUBMISSION

Mutual Submission in the First Church vs. the Rise of Hierarchical Control: How Freedom Became Oppression (Including Women)

1. The First Church: Mutual Submission & Freedom in Christ

In the early Book of Acts Church, there was no celebrity leadership, no government-style hierarchy, and no suppression of women. The First Church followed Jesus’ model: servant leadership, Spirit-led governance, and relational accountability.

Key Scripture – Ephesians 5:21 (KJV)

“Submitting yourselves one to another in the fear of God.”

What Mutual Submission Looked Like:

Jesus washed feet (John 13:14–17)
Apostles served one another (Acts 6:2–4)
Church met in homes, led by men and women (Acts 12:12, Romans 16:1–5)
Authority was not domination—it was spiritual maturity and responsibility
Paul said: “We are workers together with God” (2 Corinthians 6:1)

POINT: In the First Church, submission was mutual, not forced. It was about yielding to Christ and honoring His Spirit in one another—not building power pyramids.

2. Women in the First Church: Spirit-Led, Not Silenced

Examples of Women Ministering Freely:

Mary Magdalene: First sent with resurrection message (John 20:17)
Priscilla: Taught Apollos, a male preacher (Acts 18:26)
Phoebe: A deacon (Romans 16:1)
Junia: Called “outstanding among the apostles” (Romans 16:7)
Philip’s daughters: Public prophets (Acts 21:9)

The Holy Spirit fell on “sons and daughters” (Acts 2:17). In the early church, women were honored as part of God’s Spirit-led ministry team.

3. How Hierarchy and Control Entered the Church

The Shift: Constantine & Rome (4th Century)

After Christianity became the state religion under Emperor Constantine, the church began to mirror Roman government and imperial control:

Bishops were elevated as rulers
The pope emerged as a political and spiritual monarch
Clergy-laity divide increased
Hierarchical structure replaced Holy Spirit order
Men-only leadership was enforced
Women were increasingly viewed as spiritually inferior or dangerous

MEGA POINT: Servant Leadership Was Replaced With:

Titles and robes instead of towels and crosses
Fear-based obedience instead of joyful mutual submission
Top-down control instead of relational fellowship
Suppression of voices—including women’s—to maintain “order”

4. Jezebel: A Misused Weapon to Silence Women

In Revelation 2:20, Jesus rebukes a church for tolerating a woman who called herself a prophetess and led people astray into sin.
But modern churches often weaponize “Jezebel” as a slur:

Used against outspoken women
Used against women in leadership or spiritual discernment
Sometimes used without proof or relationship

This is not biblical:

Jesus rebukes the leadership, not the woman herself, for failing to confront sin
“Jezebel” is not a code word for “strong woman”
True correction must follow Galatians 6:1 and Matthew 18:15–17

5. Scripture that Exposes the Control Spirit

Jesus’ Warning on Power Abuse – Matthew 20:25–28 (KJV)

“Ye know that the princes of the Gentiles exercise dominion over them… but it shall not be so among you.”

Jesus says Christian leadership must never mirror worldly control.

Paul’s Caution – Colossians 2:20–22 (KJV)

“Why… are ye subject to ordinances… after the commandments and doctrines of men?”

Isaiah 3:12 (KJV)

“As for my people, children are their oppressors, and women rule over them…”
Often misused out of context, but in reality Isaiah is rebuking national disorder, not forbidding women from serving God.

6. The Remedy: Returning to Servant-Based Leadership

Reinstate mutual submission (Eph. 5:21)
Honor both male and female callings (Acts 2:17, Gal. 3:28)
Teach spiritual maturity, not gender-based control
Discern fruit, not stereotype roles
Restore the Body of Christ, not build mini-kingdoms

“He that is greatest among you shall be your servant.” —Matthew 23:11 (KJV)

Summary: Compare & Contrast

First Church Model	Post-Constantine Hierarchy
Mutual submission (Eph. 5:21)	Top-down control, bishop rule
Women prophesied, taught, led	Women banned, viewed with suspicion
Spirit-led leadership	Politically appointed clergy
Discipleship by fruit and faith	Authority by title and gender
Correction with grace	Witch-hunts and fear-based silence
Fellowship-based leadership	Roman imperial structure

Personal Note from Sister Taveau D’Arcy
Sister Taveau has never identified herself with secular women’s liberation movements. She has never once seen herself as attempting to “take the place of a Christian man.” She fully believes, according to the Bible, that in a godly, Bible-abiding Christian marriage, the husband is the head of the home. That was modeled to her by both of her parents—each of whom served as senior pastors—as well as by generations before them on both sides. In her personal life, ministry, and leadership, she upholds Ephesians 5:21, which calls all believers to submit to one another in reverence for Christ.

“Submitting yourselves one to another in the fear of God.” — Ephesians 5:21 (KJV)

Taveau was taught by the hero role modeling of her parents and extended family, and then later affirmed by the Lord to follow Him without bias against men or women, or any race, style, or denomination. Her standard is not outer appearance, title, or tradition, but fruit, Christlike character, and discernment—up close and respectful. After decades of observing the body of Christ firsthand in many streams and movements, she now shares what she has witnessed and tested, openly and scripturally.

Her messages are addressed respectfully to the body of Christ—but specifically to those who have ears to hear. She does not speak as an angry accuser, debater, or divider. She believes every Christian is entitled to their own view, just as she is to hers:

“Work out your own salvation with fear and trembling.” — Philippians 2:12 (KJV)

Taveau does not oppose or compete with other Christian leaders or lay believers who hold different positions. She refuses to quarrel, debate, or demand agreement. She does, however, welcome sincere conversation. In the spirit of James 3:17, she aims to be “easily entreated”—willing to discuss, reason, and negotiate in respectful relationship.

“Come now, and let us reason together, saith the Lord…” — Isaiah 1:18 (KJV)
“But the wisdom that is from above is first pure, then peaceable, gentle, and easy to be intreated…” — James 3:17 (KJV)

Her voice is not one of division but of concern, honor, and spiritual discernment—spoken as a Respected, Submitted Selah, solely for the edification of the Church and the glory of Jesus Christ.
