PERCEIVE AND DISCERN WHEN YOU ARE A PART OF THE RELIGIOUS SYSTEM
NOW I understand what Indian leader Mahatma Ghandhi meant when he commented, โI might have followed Jesus Christ had it not been for His followers.โ
FOR, in realistic hindsight, IF I had not already been firmly anchored and fully knowing the blessings of an ongoing, real RELATIONSHIP, perceiving the REAL JESUS, I may not have wanted to be a Christian if I had always lived here in the deep cunning, religious deep southwest. ONLY REASON: You canโt tell whose REAL and GENUINE from an INSINCERE, PUT ON LEADER PHONEY: meaning how can I accurately DISCERN which one is AUTHENTICALLY representing the TRUE โORGANICโ HOLY BIBLE CHRIST?โ Ancient of Leader Days Mature Servant TD
PIONEERING MINISTER:
โDonโt be like Lotโs Wife, she turned back and was hypnotized by the aura of if all.. and she lost her very LIFE as she was frozen into a hard pillar of useless salt.โ IFFM Ministries
โPRAY, DISCERN AND PERCEIVEโ but also โBLOOMโ WHERE YOU ARE TRULY PLANTED.โ Taveau DโArcy
Personal History, Testimony: For those who have ears to truly hear. The rest, just process in James 3:17 โnot usual formulaโ fashion, Selah.
I USED to enjoy being sent by Godโs Holy Spirit to test drive local churches, ministries to see if IFFM could refer them possible new members. I was also most 100 percent of the time, somewhere in my private life, also suffering terribly.
I lived under continual life/emotional/financial/near death, between a HARD ROCK (the ongoing dominating, abusive) Dr Jeckyl, Mr Hyde, ministry situation and THE (NonReligious) ROCK: Jesus Christ. But of course I was deeply in love but also stubbornly committed to submit to EACH of Godโs Bible injunctionsโฆwhich is how it still goes on today..but sometimes we may not have enough DOCTRINE to allow us to โperceptively knowโ WHEN to say WHEN..in a New Testament nonlegalistic freedom, with mature counsel and Bible balance, deep perspective.
AND this is one of the real reasons I now feel the need to RISE and APOSTOLIC MINISTRY TEACH.
THE FOLLOWING IS MY OWN PERSPECTIVE
JESUS CHRIST was and still is MY SOLID ROCK as now also is the ROCK OF REVELATION which has slowly been REVEALED in the reliant, found it necessary CLOSE REAL BACK AND now FORTH RELATIONSHIP. (now that hellish over long period of desert time has come to a close).
I now senior minister to those who are just now PASSING THROUGH similar narrow particular , dangerous CHANNELS. As you live in them, it is similar to being all by oneself (even in the midst of friends, family and congregation)โฆ
โฆall ALONE โapartโ before the LORD and in the KNOWLEDGE and FORCE FIELD that YOU live /move and breath inโฆas the HEAD, PIONEERING TOP, RESPONSIBLE APOSTOLIC LEADER (not married to a top leader, not serving just second in command to one, but THE LONE TOP who has noone left to turn to except THE MIGHTY LORD.)
AND I live there now, as many reading this: as a newly SINGLE, SINGLE PARENT and OFFICE OF THE APOSTLE, PROPHET, TEACHER, EVANGELIST, AND SR PASTORโฆ..but living in great heart ,live,spiritual apostolic PEACE, such as this long term writer has ever once before been privileged to fully experience.
ONE REASON: I finally understood TRUE RELIANCE upon ONLY the LORD. Second, FINALLY(after how many LONG years.) got to where OTHERS PEOPLES ACCUSATION and /or PRAISES no longer MATTER. Psalm 118:9-10/Micah 7:5 finally leader, human sunk inโฆ.
FINALLY.
However, BEFORE the shocking unwanted divorce (following a heart by pass, where I was informed by phone of my dismissal after 34 years..and was also informed that I had no other choice, meaning that any negotitian, family counseling, submitting to prayer, and/or submitted mutual yielding to follow Bible command (where I was told that there was NO optionโฆ) โฆ.
SO much laterโฆ. after the shock FINALLY wore off. AND the writer examined HER own prophetic CALL..
The spirit of DEBORAH which had always been operating when wed, and had been frankly thrust on her, as the former husband was a top business man..and the FEMALE SENIOR LEADER also functioned with his blessing, but he NEVER ever was there along side her in what God had her doing.
SO soon, over on www.iffmmenandwomen.net IFFM MEN AND WOMEN, Dr T will recount the story of the national prophet DEBORAH and her mighty behind the scenes hubby, LAPIDOTH (whom the writer has nicknamed LAPTOP)โฆbut first allow this HUMAN MINISTRY PERSON to complete this article.
SO, after the relocation to the deep religious southwest, and finding spiritual warfare as the SHE had never encountered during as she traveling ministered, pioneered, planted 3 cell youth oriented family churches and oversaw the Vietnamese community on fire church, was on real radio in 4 states, local area wide real TV, interceded on behalf of senior ministers, sent out her ministry publication to 500 senior pastors,repeatedly attended regional sr. pastors, ministry leaders revival racial healing, ongoing repentance, cross grass roots Christian body PRAYER..and Holy Spirit networked, all while practicing spiritual accountability to a BOARD.
AND whenever the former intended to be life partner, made a choice to go to a local church, then she would attend /join with him.
And both of them produced two wonderful, now fully grown children, one capable freely thinking totally amazing female and one strong equally freely thinking equally totally amazing fine male.(the writer always told the both of them that they were each her FIRST BORN: the first born FEMALE and the first born MALE)
ANd the SHE now still enjoys and respects each of their knowledgeable opinionsโฆeven if they donโt always reflect that of HERS.
(And that is the same SR MINISTRY APPROACH IFFM has with all other ministers, and rising YOUTH future leadersโฆREAL RESPECT..and wanting to find out what GOD is telling YOU so that I can always keep โorganicโ and GROWINGโฆ)
THUS, after the relocation to the deep southwest, and after surviving repeated (3 different subgroup times) raping and pillaging from โlocal 5 fold officesโ who ducked, avoided and used their power to hide in their hidey holes to avoid being BIBLE MATTHEW 18:15-18 respectful leader UP FRONT confrontedโฆ(which was shocking but extremely wearying..)
AND after encountering big RELIGIOUS MINISTRY STEREOTYPING RELIGIOUS, GOOD OLE WHITE BOY /WHITE SUBSERVIENT GIRL RELIGIOUS (ACHIEVEMENT BASED) SYSTEMS, time and time and time and time OVER AGAINโฆthe now far more up front, no longer intimidated and FAR MORE AWARE of now how dark skinned, atypical, many non English speaking and even homosexual community** and much more RELATIONSHIP, FIRST LOVE MINISTERS also perhaps are blindly stereotyped by the usually very hard over working, building a ministry business concern, trying to always raise more and more MONEY, religious CASTE SYSTEMS of ministry fellowship, and church HIERARCHYโฆ
** who being polite,very open and accepting, still immediately pegged me as a RELIGIOUS RIGHT, RIGHT WINGER, prone to HATEโฆbut who could accuse them after what I had also personally and REPEATEDLY discovered!!
Finally,(BACK, TEST DRIVING CHARISMATIC CHURCHES) after being handed over by a male associate minister (grabbed by my white, genteel female apostolic WRIST) into the waiting open hand of a barking dominating waiting apostolic female apparently second in commandโฆ
After attempting to practice โchief apostolic mutually submitted EPHESIANS 5:21 accountability, family feel, โmature leader iron sharpens ironโ (as the writer had alway practiced during the prior 25 years on the east coast..which was admittedly far more genuine, less cosmopolitan and way down homey..but MATURE and MINISTRY PROFESSIONAL STRENGTH)โฆ
AND the โSINGLE WHITE FEMALEโ (always viewed by the SHE writer that God was allowing HER to be used as some LITMUS TEST for โunloving religious ministry, respecter of persons, accusationโwas repeatedly ordered without being โaccepted in the belovedโ even โrightly PERCEIVED and DISCERNEDโ as a SENIOR LEADER, in white run mega ministries, noteably by their 2nd, 3rd, tier of immature solid white submitted STAFF who finally, after 6 area wide major attempts to MEET with a MATURE SEASONED SENIOR PASTOR was incorrectly DISCERNED as just one more of the many white middle age CLUB MEMBERS /GROUPIES, FAN CLUB FOLLOWERS and/or OLD AGE SENIOR CITIZEN whom they now needed to refer to the CHECKERS PLAYING CELL GROUP.
BEING VIEWED THROUGH DEEP SOUT LEGALISM IS NOT WHAT THIS (barely below the Mason Dixon Line) to the deep southwwestโฆa relative NORTHEASTER however much more(accurately) SOUTH EASTERN, WELL BRED HUMAN PERSON HAS BEEN BROUGHT UP TO RECEIVE /SEE DONE IN THE GOOD NAME OF JESUS CHRIST FOLLOWING.
And, in the deep southwest for this HUMAN, INNER AGE 28 STILL, APOSTOLIC CALEBโฆwas definitely HER very first time at discovering that if YOU are a white female SENIOR HEAD OFFICE that there are (appearing) NONE in the entire area. (after all claiming great Word of Faith reminded applied Bible promisesโ MY YOUTH IS BEING RENEWED LIKE THE EAGLESโ has produced promised FRUIT!)
WOW. I NEVER REALIZED HOW OPPRESSED AND GENDER BIASED MINISTRY WASโฆ UNTIL THE RELOCATIONโฆ
SO, in order to help free MALES and many FEMALES from the Lazurus Grave Clothes of soul destroying BIAS, (meaning of ANY KIND, anti male, anti leader woman,anti BROWN SKINNED or WHITE SKIN or anytype of known OTHERโฆthe writer now RISES UP TO ADDRESS and often DOCTRINALLY REPROVE.
STILL, she does not ever rebuke an elder. Happily her own pastor FATHER and many other countless ministers have caused her to fully understand that there are continual RELIGIOUS TARES among the HEALTHY USA WHEAT.
AND that the SENIOR OFFICES in the western european charismatic heritage peg YOU (via their seerish qualities) as โLittle Problematicโ โSubservientโ โAccused of WEAK WILLEDโ and not preferred as the white male YOUTHโฆand avoided or dismissedโฆeven withstood as not replying to any form of attempts to introduce yourself ON BEHALF OF THE LORD and THE COMING END TIME MOVE OF GOD.
I visited ONE white senior ministerโs fine church, where HE did actually take time to SPEAK with me, (which was/is NOT the SW NORM)..and I honor him and if you ask me, I will tell you his name. YET, as I was genuinely seeking RELATIONSHIP but not โSPIRITUAL COVERINGโ (avoiding CONTROL) I wasnโt able to get past the second in commands at two different points in time. (and I find this TYPICAL of deep solid Caucasian charismatic, who are NOT totally 100 percent FIRST LOVE RELATIONSHIP either knowledgeable or practicing)..
I went the first time, and, as I had done countless times up and down the east coast,black and solid white leader charismatic grass roots churches, I 1) recognize CHAIN OF BIBLE COMMAND 2) and I DISCERN LEADER/HOUSE BOUNDARIES 3) and while I am on THEIR spiritual turf, I always submit to them PEACEFULLYโฆsimply waiting, discerning how God is telling me to proceed. AND when HE prompts me to walk up at the end of a service..I will always quietly sense whom God wants me to speak..and then wait patiently until God opens the door.
YET, visiting DEEP SOUTHWEST CHURCH COUNTRY is like nothing that this much experienced, however, NOT FROM THE DEEP SOUTHWEST mature (nonachievment, but HUMAN REAL PERSON) apostolic leader has EVER encountered,(much less on a wide spread, every big to micro ministry busy business recurring (frustrating) level).
THE PERSON (who does happen to be a HER) reckons that perhaps this is BIG TIME LEGALISTIC PIONEERING MINISTRY mixed with (speculating?) many COUNTRY FORMERLY ABUSED, ACCUSED ministry, working very hard GRASS ROOTS..many if not all of which are the REASONS that SPURRED me addressing this TOPICโฆ.
As the NONCHURCHED, Other FAITHS, all PERCEIVE and SEE SIMILAR to all of this (??)
AND ISNโT GODโS HOUSE intended to be a โhouse of prayer for ALL NATIONS?โ Isaiah 56:7
AND is it ONLY EMOTIONALLY SPIRITUALLY โSAFEโ and โACCEPTINGโ to flag waving nationalists? Only to RIGHT WING REPUBLICANS/Tea Party who have descended from Roman Patrician WE back grounds?
and we doff our sincere CAPS off to those whom are GENUINE, PURE MOTIVED and we do not intentionallY LUMP ANY OF YOU IN with what we now name the WANNABE WORSHIP/TV MEDIA AFFECTED POP MINISTRY 5 FOLD OFFICE CULTURE.
ANY of our IFFM โtossing over any complacent, self satisfied, TEMPLE MONEY CHANGERS, even apostolic TABLESโ is purely โJESUS NON SELF IMPORTANT ZEAL FOR HIS FATHERโS HOUSEโ and the a NONโ Seerishly SPYING/SUSPICIOUSLY PEERINGโ objective leader writer has been where most of YOU have been and still LIVES in this same area, similar to MANY OF YOU!
WE MUST EACH USE SUPRME LEADER /MATURE LAY CAUTION:
โDo not touch Godโs anointed, do My (HIS) prophets NO (more)HARMโ(meaning that most of them already dwell in dangerous, intensely pressure filled situations)
IFFM Meaning: whether they are on PULPIT STAGE, serving in the NURSERY, sitting in the AUDIENCE as a Rising previously never been doctrinally addressed PIONEERING HOLY SPIRIT(potentially) PRESENTLY BEING HOME SCHOOLED FUTURE SR MINISTER!
THE BIG ZEAL is for FATHERโS SAFE HOUSE..to be ready when God sends REAL AWAKENING..and all the new PEOPLE move to the DEEP SOUTH..(meaning also another SW big sober SOMBER Selah)โฆas please regard THIS FEMALE EARTH SUITED HUMAN NEWBIE as a โPIONEERING FORERUNNERโ (Holy Spirit Litmus Accuser Test) ..yet (as God mysteriously places, SENDS HIs โprophetic, apostolic SENT MESSENGERSโ) I believe that there may be OTHERS who look vastly DIFFERENT: in many races, cultures, upscale, to down and out, etc.
AND THIS is the (imperceptive, busy,all about US, against UNIQUE INDIVIDUAL ME, self protecting, governing by placing RULES and PRESSURE on others to conform and to perform, โFor My Members Onlyโ deeply โrespecter of some types of real personsโ ) BIG RELIGIOUS SYSTEM.
HENCE, being RAISED by a White Senior denominational loving PASTORโฆwho was not one bit dominating, gender /racial leader biased, NOT into achievement performance hierarchy, yet still from the deep SOUTH (born in postage stamp size Dallas, Georgia)โฆand who never would have distanced himself from Godโs leader immature OR mature womenโฆas he respected and honored both my capable minister MOTHER and both HIS mother and my mothers mother and my baby sister and also ME.
During the 30 years in up and down EAST COAST cross true body ministry, the spiritual advisors, many senior pastors who also mentored me, were NOT โsystematicโ or anti female or racist.
AND as the SHE writer had always both GIVEN and automatically RECEIVED โleader respectโ until a couple of accuser doctrines moved into the area regarding โpeople not being spiritually COVERED and with that โCHURCH HOPPINGโ and similar accuser PHARISEEISM perverted Old Testament attack legalism, mingled in with JESUS FREEDOM (usually found purely in ministries who train on moving in the gifts of the Spirit)โฆit was then the WRITER began first to search what lay inside HER OWN HEARTโฆbut then this started her inquiring, in Apostle Paulโs Noble Berea โtaking responsibilityโ manner to RESEARCH in depth what modern USA local doctrines are ACTUALLY in the NEW TESTAMENT and which are PHARISEE ACCUSER LEGALISMโฆ
As the Lord directed her specifically to go to conferences, to visit local ministries (usually also to get away from ministry /life enormous heightened hellish pressure and apostolic persecution, accuser legalism, mental /emotional /spiritual warfareโฆthe LORD would โredeem that timeโ by teaching her to note, to โPERCEIVE AND DISCERNโ the following:
1.How the senior top leader respects his /her spouse.
2. How the top leaders, staff, respect/interact,with their own followers, group but also with all kinds of others
3. What are the โhouse membersโ โthe house faithfulโ truly like out in the congregation (healthy good mature spiritual fruit or accuser, pastor dependent, cry baby, out only for SELF and BLESSING/ including โbuilding MY OWN MINISTRYโ apostolic /church untrue FALLOUT.
And after being dismissed /handed over to the immature staff, in 6 very large, even โwell knownโ but otherwise super, apostolically healthy, but evidently charismatic โpropheticโ which ought not claim to be such, since they each misperceived ME as they all repeatedly appeared to regard ME as the TYPICAL DEEP SOUTH STEREOTYPE INTERCESSOR, FEMALE: implying bossy or โcoming to be another FAN CLUB middle aged equally weak willed, dependent (as in presumed to be FLAKEY or SUBSERVIENT FOLLOWER)
Yet this writer comprehends the fact. Similar to Paulโs writings telling the โwomen to be silent in church.โ
WHILE I am NOT into โwomenโs libโ (meaning having been RAISED TOTALLY FREE by my father and dear mother), with all that it has come to me since the mid 1990โฒs (when the charismatic demeaning spiritual covering (can also be bossy) spiritual doctrines began to surfaceโฆ)
that (submitting SELAH rather than apostolic DOGMA)
1. HISTORY teaches what went on in the life and culture of the FIRST CHURCH.
2. Due to the times and Old Testament Law, all females were regarded as second class and never TOP SENIOR MINISTERS.
3. And the females who were GENTILES were even coming potentially directly from Temple Dianah occult/worship cult, Samaria, and from who knows what..so they might be presumed to be over WILD.
4. TD HONEST SELAH: Thus, as the first Chief Apostles, including Apostle Paul, pioneered in what was surely an UPHILL SPIRITUAL, MORAL and CULTURAL MIDDLE EASTERN/ASIA/MESOPOTAMIAN HODGE PODGE/APOSTOLIC MIXTURE..to get Christโ church firmly and quickly โorganically WORK PLANTEDโ and then stablized (so that it could catch root and prosper,thrive and fully grow) ME WONDERS that PAULโS COMMAND to โlet the women be silent in churchโ was primarily for that timeโฆas back then the GODLY NEWLY SAVED MEN were simply more than enough to have to MENTOR, LEAD, and MINISTRY TRAIN.
(reminder Boanerges Ministers SONS OF THUNDER self seeking JAMES and his brother JOHN, the vast amounts of newly saved (by the many thousands BOOK OF ACTS) and wandering demoniacs (Gaderenes), Patrician Romans, Greek gnostics, purely all out heathen, and false demonized sent unsaved persons, and mentally tough customersโฆnone of whom were privileged as we are today to have a written BIBLE(meaning the NEW TESTAMENT) to studyโฆnor in fact, did the FIRST APOSTLES have any resources to use to TRAIN and MENTOR the newly saved (meanin GENERATIONS OF LEADER EQUIPPING, MINISTRY TRAINING and TV/MEDIA.
HENCE, if the Torah had the MEN the head of the home, family, local synagogue, in the cultural, worship, real world MIX of that TIME PERIOD, it seems that logically, it would imply that TRAINING THE MEN to RISE UP AND LEAD, would not rankle them nearly as much if PAUL and the DISCIPLES also tried to teach โGENDER ROLES, REAL RESPECT and EQUALITY which was based on CHAIN OF COMMAND and EPHESIANS 5:21 as well as โsubmissionโ in Ephesians 5:22.)
(Just my apostolic theory)
HOWEVER LATER, as time progressed, and being reminded of APOSTLE PAUL โwhen you put on Christ there is no male or female, bond or free, Greek or Jew, etcโ and when Paul also said, โI determined not to know anything about anyone (Male, Female, Greek, Jew, Bond, Free) except Christ and Him crucified.
AM WONDERING if as the Church progressed, grew, financially PROSPERED: and mass TV, worship culture, SOFTWARE and PERSONA/PERSONALITY WORSHIP also ensued, that PERHAPS there were also some persons who then relied on โhanded down word of mouthโ โapostolic traditionsโ and โlegalismโ rather than taking time out to personally in depth NOBLE BEREAN HOLY BIBLE STUDY what is allowed by the NEW TESTAMENT but which is not allowed in the OLD.
RESPECTFUL SELAH.
BUILDING ON THIS PRINCIPLE:
SO, if back then, in those fluid, before Bible chaotic /pre Christian legalistic filled time, they did have to (to minimize the doctrinal,ignorance /cultural of chauvinism, racism, slavery CHAOS) have to settle first the GODLY MEN as the Bible points to MEN being commissioned by GOD (GEN 1) to go apart alone to meet alone with the LORD on behalf of their wives, families, business, ministries to be accountable, to receive INSTRUCTION and WORDs to โguard, govern, guideโ and hopefully to want to โedify, comfort and strengthen.โ
IFFM Leader House fully believes in Bible /in house chain of command and the writer has /is writing on this www.iffmmenandwomen.net and elsewhere..
HOWEVER, as the modern reader is fully aware, we do NOT live in the PRE BIBLE work planting DAYSโฆyet we DO live in what appears to be a much more PLURALISTIC, CROSS RACIAL, CROSS CULTURAL, POST CHRISTIAN (similar) pioneering, work planting DAY.
AND if the MEN who were told not to 1) have long hair 2) no tattoos by the Old Testament, now feel freedom in Christ to do so..then we can also say that ALL LEVITICAL LEGALISM (Old Testament Levitical Torah LAW) is also simply just that: APOSTOLIC LEGALISM.
THEREFORE, and reminding the anti female minister READER regarding PROPHET DEBORAH who heard the plights of BOTH male and females as she made decisions in a NATIONAL LEADER SENSE, yet surely parked her authority /governing mantle when she entered her own married happy home and enjoyed feeling cherished,fully feminine, by her equally, but differently, mantled Godly real man HUSBAND: Lapidoth (more later on the Leader Couple..www.iffmmenandwomen.net)
Rod Parsleyโs Reformation Bible comments how due to the shortage of Godly strong real men in Deborahโs time, God had to call up strong Godly real womenโฆ
AND if a Godly real women, yet one who is apostolic and meek, visits some of the Legalistic View of Women as COMING TO CONTROL, or who are not balanced in their NEW TESTAMENT VS LEGALISTIC OT LAW MISOGYNOUS LACK OF KNOWLEDGE OF REAL WOMEN and CHRISTโS FREEDOM..then we find what is going on TODAY in grass rootsโฆmore and more ACCUSER of the SISTEREN as well as the ATYPICAL BRETHREN/needing to be strong MOTHEREN.
So IFFM MOTTO is โTHE CUTTING EDGE IS BALANCE.โ
CONCLUSION: After one has been bitten over and over in one large REGIONAL ALL OVER ANTI FEMALE/misogynous, apostolic chauvinism, โrespecter of some types of human personsโ also dubbed COMPASSION FATIGUED, EMPATHY FREE, ELI TEMPLE HIGH PRIESTHOOD (See articles on www.organicleader.org_
And one recognizes how the ELITE SENIOR MINISTRY of hierarchy, entourage mixed in with the POVERTY of substituting MINISTRY PERFORMANCE, ACHIEVEMENT over โFIRST LOVE PURE HEARTED RELATIONSHIPโ (in area immature senior โTV MEDIA POP WORSHIP CULTUREโ leader affected ministry)..
AND WHEN โhead Levitical Patriarchsโ will avoid you, appear to accuse one (female and male) if one is โDIVORCEDโ (simply by religious ministry stereotype) AND NOT even permit YOU to share with them directly what truly WENT ONโฆ
AND if one (female or male) is repeatedly โSENTโ to very MANY of them, dressed only in the EARTH SUIT of a grieving, 5โ9 1/2, Western European,Middle Aged, blonde admittedly over normal body weight (at this writing, but working always to submit to not being thus) TRUE OFFICE PROPHET, NONACHIEVING (far more โrevealedโ) CHIEF APOSTLE
and one called to LIBERATE REAL GODLY MEN and CAPABLE REAL LEADER WOMEN/MENTOR MALE/FEMALE GIFTED AND TALENTED MATURE YOUTHโฆthen one can PERCEIVE and DISCERN that at this point in basic spiritual Holy Spirit Real Time:
That the achievement senior pastors, 5 fold offices are NOT WILLING, NOT SINCERELY WANTING and worst of all NOT even PERCEIVING AND DISCERNING โGodโs Holy Spirit servant leadersโ who are SENT to them in many (not just my STYLE) OUTER COURT SHAPES, SIZES, MINISTERY/LAY LOOKS, RACES, AGES and GENDERS.
โFaith works by loveโ thus when as a repeat VISITOR/AREA NEWBIE,ALIEN, WEEPING NON FAMOUS STRANGERS can discern NO GENUINE AGAPE, IMMEDIATE ACCEPTING โREAL LOVEโ one then finds ones own SPIRIT and PURE MOTIVED EMOTIONS/HEART being repeatedly disrespected, unjustly leader accused, distanced and avoided.
AND this writer, leader brand new area woman, was on three different times (in the spanse of 3-4 deep southwest ministry pioneering years) taken advantage of , abused by those in their own or another famous national sr ministries RELIGIOUS SYSTEM.
TAKEN ADANTAGE OF: you lend fellow โChristian sr pastors helps ministerโ the ministries valuable PROPERTY (digital studio pianos, top of the line Computers, laptops, etc) only to find that This is NOT EAST COAST GRASS ROOTS MINISTRYโฆ.and when you inquire for their returnโฆone is ramroded, repeatedly avoided (on 3 separate ministry occasions and by 3 different pedigrees of โsenior /helps ministerโ)
YET THE TELLING POINT: Filled with Bible chain of command MATTHEW 18:15-18 professional minister /leader protocol, after one finds that the LOWER LEVELS Christian sr pastor,rising โsaved ministerโ has run off with the ministry worldly valuable GOODS, and after the prophetic DEMASโes have refused to allow ONE INDIVIDUAL to โMatthew 18:15 firmly,respectfully up front CONFRONT THEM, meaning they duck avoid, hide, accuser blame shift(manipulating HolY Bible Scripture to self justify, licentiously avoid)โฆSTILL then you continue to proceed in MATTHEW 18:15 In True House Protocol..meaningโฆit says to โgo get another person (this case meaning REPORT THEM TO THEIR OVERSIGHT, who in two of the three cases stated they were โUNDERโ โconnected as a part of โ a well known ministry.
YET when the LONE NEWBIE tries repeatedly to get them to submit to what the WORD says we all are to DOโฆit is now THEY which DUCK, HIDE, LEADER AVOID and appear to take the favor with the MEN who stole the itemsโฆeven using their POWERFUL ORGANIZATION to put up roadblocks at ever single turn.
AND I viewed this curiously and as one of Godโs HIDDEN PROPHETS, and WONDERED just how many times each one of these CUNNING, AVOIDANT, UNSUBMITTEDโ (in rebellion to the authority of Godโs Holy Bible) had repeatedly done this same exact type of MINISTRY REAL LIFE AFFECTING UNLOVING THING.
Truly, this is when I began to study popular modern ministry DOCTRINES and preferring MINISTRY SELF SERVING BUSINESS as opposed to HOLY BIBLE RELATIONSHIPS.
AND JAMES 3:17 for help in discerning FRUIT in pastors, leader, โCHRISTIANSโ and in ones own human HEART.
โThe wisdom from above is first of all pure, peaceable, full of mercy and good fruit, EASILY ENTREATED (!), without PARTIALITY (!!) and without HYPOCRISY(!!!!)โ
AND while I now can more up front accurately perceive SLY CUNNING which is as โthe rebellious sin of witchcraftโ and โidolatry.โ
SOUTHWEST GRAND SELAH.
AND while one is NOT NAIVE, albeit recently USED TO BE a new person in any giant area, and one who has just been thoroughly and still is, thoroughly TRAUMATIZED after been through heart by pass major surgery/recovery, bank system attempt so duck and hide from theft, then being forced to find divorce lawyers when there is nobody to comfort you, guide you as you have no relatives who comprehend since nobody ever gets divorced in my own pastorโs family.
AD to this finding lawyers by phone in another state, only to wind up with big crooks who are a enough spiritual warfare all alone. AND then your finances go COMPLETELY DRY.
SO one, being mature, not one bid STUPID, wants to find โweep with those who weep accepting COMFORT โ via Bible โFELLOWSHIPPING WITH THE (perceptive, empathetic, other centered, caring, fully acceptingโ TRUE LEADER/LAY SAINTS.
And after fellowshipping with the SAINTS in both LEADERSHIP and LAY all of my entire getting to be long LIFEโฆI have never ever before found MORE โunconditional acceptanceโ in the NON CHURCHED born again Christians, But also the NONCHRISTIANS and even some of the GAY COMMUNITY..
ALL OF WHICH caused me to examine MYSELF but also the SPIRITUAL DOCTRINES WHICH evidently FEED this โfake unwholesome regional MY OWN RELIGION sorry sad, twisted, ministry FALLOUT.
HENCE: (and all who used to really know me may appreciate this a lot more) AFTER 40 years of happily enjoying VISITING, REPEAT VISITING local charismatic Churches (to see how they taught, imparted, and musically worshipped) IN ORDER to โrefer the NEWBIES and to steer the STRAYSโ upon feeling impressed to do so by the Spirit, โฆeven to the point of being gossiped about me being โA UNCOMMITTED OUT FROM UNDER SPIRITUAL AUTHORITY (meaning THEIR OWN FORM) โCRITICAL SINFUL CHURCH HOPPERโ (NOTE: By none who showed Godโs love enough to speak with me face to face EVER)โฆin hindsight as of NOWโฆI dismiss all of that as BEING NOTHING (yet I know realize what often transpires in smaller, local , landlocked, kept isolated, religious, legalism dominated local AREASโฆ)
AND YET, it was not being back bitten, having tales told that finally put an end to (by removing ALL OF THE HAPPY JOY AND ADVENTURE of seeing what pastors/ministries/ Holy Spirit was going)..it was repeatedly encountering RUDE, DISRESPECTFUL, AVOIDING, NO GODโS REAL ACCEPTING GENUINE LOVE along with IMPERCEPTIVE, HOUSE FORMULA, FULL OF ITโS OWN SELF, MY/WE CENTERED, SURFACE, INTO GAME PLAYING/LEADER WINNNG, PERFORMANCE, LEADER STEREOTYPING, APOSTOLIC HOOPS JUMPING, CELEBRITY โLOST FIRST LOVEโ PLASTIC โUNGODLY MIXTURE.โ
AND when the Lord told me to fully yield to His Whole Bible Counsel in 2 Timothy 3:1-5, โfrom such turn away.โ
I merely submitted and fully obeyed.
And I have made it my practice to regard all types of experiences, both GOOD and HEALTHY and NOT GOODโฆโPROPHETICALLYโ on the behalf of potentially MANY OTHERS who know what I am saying is the TRUTH and who may not have the boldness or the authority โofficeโ to allow them a VOICE.
AND I used to be TAMED and SUPER SHYโฆNOW yours truly is extra BOLD and NO longer one bit SHY.
During the years of being abused, controlled, and also while I was gossiped aboutโฆ(am so happy no longer being around all of that) โฆI learned PRINCIPLES and a closer RELIANCE, FULLY FUN RELATIONSHIP apart with THE HEALTHY LORD). I now understand that God was using that time to Teach me RESPECT FOR ALL KINDS OF HUMAN PERSONS.
AND to free me up from family generational โMAN PLEASINGโ and โFEAR OF MAN AND FEAR OF WOMANโand โFEAR OF OTHER PEOPLEโS OPINIONS, FEAR OF DISPLEASING OTHER PEOPLEโS FALSE POPULAR DOCTRINES.โ
I am not NOW going to go backwards to SUBMIT to legalism, yet when I am sent to visit, and my SPIRIT discerns House Legalism, I will still politely respect THEIR RIGHT to be LEVITICAL in the New Testament times AND either just ignore it (as each one of us leader make doctrinal big mistakes) YET if the model the ACCUSER, ATTACKING, JUMPING ME or BROW BEATING ME for not believing similar,I simply shake the dust off my feet and let the Lord intervene with them.
DR T is now a prophetic Happy Camper and NO accuser, witch spying, prophetic covering doctrine, ministry peer pressure or disrespectful stereotyping will ever make me bow and scrape to IT, ever more again.
DISCLAIMER: WE agape LOVE each of them โฆbut safely from AFAR..and we make it a practice of SELF EXAMINATION to make sure we have no unforgiveness. BUT to remain SPIRITUALLY SAFE, we now know our NEW TESTAMENT GRACE and NON RELIGIOUS โFREEDOM.โ
ALSO, while DR T is ALWAYS DISCERNING and RESPECTFUL to all sorts of leader and all in local ministry HOUSE โboundariesโ as I have by now, what appears to be a HEIGHTENED โDiscernment of legalistic /religious, bigoted unkind SPIRITSโ by now,I also
HENCE the IFFM โJANE(formerly) ON THE ISLE OF PLANOโ leader in deep depth attempt to study apostolic senior ministry commonly accepted โhurtfulโ leader doctrines. Hence the IFFM TAVEAU DโARCY LEADERSHIP โDOCTRINAL DE-FRAGGINGโ ongoing pioneering ministry equipping.
AND after witnessing vast, area wide top minister/grass roots imperceptiveness, Eli Priesthood minus zero Christlike caring human compassion and leader empathy, the writers heart goes out to 1) we need to pray for themโฆas the โanointing flows from the headโ Psalm 133 and if the HEAD is out of touch with DEEP Eternal REALITY then so goes the entire grass roots body(which after trying to employ โministersโ in the deep southwest working poor, middle class was more than enough to bleed me financially, drain me completely dry emotionally and is NOW THE REASON for me sharing this to comfort, serve, show CHRIST LIKE EMPATHY To sr /junior 5 fold offices who also NOW must everyday INTERACT among and with them.
AND we are working on DOCTRINES for A NEW DAY(PSALM 118) which is not complete due to prayer and leader /minister volunteers.)to serve seniorpastor,teachers to have โFOODโ to re-train, renew the congregation, youth, to ward off being CONTROLLED.
AND IFFM ONLINE PASTORS, MINISTERS DFW MINISTRY FELLOWSHIP to help untame the dulled deep down, forced to submit (dummy way down) ,kept isolated, regionally land locked around this area but also ANYWHERE in this USA NATION and WAY BEYOND (see www.dfwlof.org as it unfolds to share the vision)
ME, I was always the senior top pioneering head of the IFFM and before that the UMPIRE, INC: THE ENCOURAGING WORD ..meaning with and now without โa husband.โ Yet, I always submitted to HIS authority and the real man HE always said, โYES.โ As I mentioned, after the heart by pass, it radically changed everything I had always felt would stand the test of hell, heaven and time.
SO being โALL ALONEโ at the TOP is a HUGE part in IFFM Ministry UNDERSTANDING COMPASSSION for senior top pioneering MINISTERS and apostolic BUSINESS and mature SINGLEs, especially SINGLE PARENTS, (MEN AND LEADER REAL WOMEN)
ANd this is why I am so open and above board, GOD detests RUMORS, GOSSIP and SO does IFFM and ME.
I am a very straight shooter, (yet not aiming to KILL/USE /VERBALLY ABUSE) as I have had more than enough of that come directly towards me.
YET after all of this 9 years of recent regional sr pioneering, I also well know the TURFT and how TO SKIRT IT as well so TRULY ENJOY my own life, senior ministry, simply by OBEYING MORE FULLY TO WHATEVER THE LORD DIRECTS and also by SIMPLY AVOIDING โThe Religious Life Sucking Unloving REAL (DEATH WISH) LEADER REAL SPIRIT.โ
And the major OCCULT REAL WITCH RELIGIOUS DARK SPIRITS are also more enormous than this PERCEIVER SEER TRUE PROPHET has ever repeatedly encountered in her 6 decades of Christ following real life.
BUT the latter are absolutely NOTHING and DO NOT MATTER TO ME as โ I am seated above with Christ in heavenly places, far above all power, dominion and name that can be namedโโฆ.
NO.. rather it has been encountering the LOVELESS, SELF RIGHTEOUS, ENTITLED, SUPERIOUR PROUD, OVER WORKED, LABELING, RELIGIOUSLY โALL IN THE RIGHTโ CLINICAL MINISTRY BIGOTED STEREOTYPING all widespread that has ONLY BEEN and still might continue to be IFFM and CHIEF APOSTLE DR TAVEAU DโARCYโS VERY OWN WORST โHELL ON EARTHโ NIGHT MARE.
Frankly, the New Agers which seem to be at every turn, have a lot more DEPTH and REALISM and PERCEPTION of a SPIRITUAL REALM than the vast majority of the โSAVEDโbut RELIGIOUS โspiritually /emotionally hardened , overly RELIGIOUS โTOUGH CUSTOMERS.
I CLOSE WITH THIS:
โWhere the Spirit of the Lord there is FREEDOMโ not confining, all about itself, accusing without ever up front loving confronting, over seer always keeping tabs on other ministers PHARISEE LEGALISM.
MEANING: Test the spirits to see which are truly from the nonlegalistic FATHER GOD.
โThe fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdomโ Proverbs 1:7 MEANING: that if popular ministry is nearly 90 percent ABSENT of any discernable โAWESOME HOLY FEAR OF THE LORDโ all around an vast mainstream AREAโฆthen what might this over all imply?
LOGIC: THE FEAR OF THE LORD โฆ.โis the beginning of TRUE, LEADER MATURE, HOLY SPIRIT ,SELF GOVERNING, wisdom.
THE LACK /EVEN MINUS, OF THE FEAR OF THE LORDโฆ.โimplies the beginning of CUNNING, BRAZENNESS, MINUS HUMILITY, MINUS REAL ACCURATE< SHARP HOLY SPIRIT CUTTING EDGE, PERCEIVING, ACCURATELY DISCERNING REAL GODLY , HEALTHY WISDOM." AND taking this PRINCIPLE to one more implied level: IF there is NO GODLY WISDOM IN THE TOP SENIOR LEADER, (based on that there is no real deep "HOLY FEAR OF THE LORD") AND PSALM 133 reminds us that "God's ANOINTING flows from the head" ...which also might mean, that any SHALLOW SYNTHETIC UNGODLY MIXTURE may also flow down into the lay via the spiritual "transference of spirits....? THEN...what is the FULLEST DEEPEST, EVEN AREA WIDE AFFECTING, real implication? For SELAH for Lost Human Souls Sole Sake. PS AND admittedly acknowledging..there but for the grace of God potentially go we ALL... FINALLY IFFM MALES AND FEMALES MOTTO: โI (We) donโt DO โjockeying for positionโโฆ.โ โPromotion does not come from the east or west, but from the LORD.โPsalm 75:6 Blessings.
