The tongue is a "woman" to the hidden man of the heart...pt 1

[2013]

The tongue is a “woman” to the hidden man of the heart. The tongue is to be in subjection to the “husband”….the hidden man of the heart….Christ.

When we preach the Word, we are to be gentle and courteous toward ALL men with our mouths….so that even those who do not obey the Word may also be won over by how we speak….in love and kindness ….to them.

1 Peter 3:1-11 KJV
(1) Likewise, ye wives, be in subjection to your own husbands; that, if any obey not the word, they also may without the word be won by the conversation of the wives;

They will see how we use our tongues in love and kindness at all times….and shall fear.

(2) While they behold your chaste conversation coupled with fear.

We are not to speak His Word in deceit….with flattering words and fair speeches to deceive others for gain. Babylon is a “woman”…the flattering tongue of men… who dresses in this fashion: wearing of gold and putting on of apparel as a cloak of covetousness. She speaks great swelling words of vanity while handling the Word of God deceitfully in order to gain something from her hearers. Our tongues are not to be “adorned” with such things.

(3) Whose adorning let it not be that outward adorning of plaiting the hair, and of wearing of gold, or of putting on of apparel;

But let it be in the hidden man of the heart NOT having covetousness but the ornament of a meek and quiet spirit….breath. The breath exhales and the tongue gives birth to words. The tongue speaks what overflows from the heart. What manner of breath comes out of the heart to form words? Covetousness in the hearts of men are hidden by flattering tongue….Babylon…that speaks guile.

(4) But let it be the hidden man of the heart, in that which is not corruptible, even the ornament of a meek and quiet spirit, which is in the sight of God of great price.
(5) For after this manner in the old time the holy women also, who trusted in God, adorned themselves, being in subjection unto their own husbands:
(6) Even as Sara obeyed Abraham, calling him lord: whose daughters ye are, as long as ye do well, and are not afraid with any amazement.

The tongue is the “weaker vessel” that we are to give honor to….always being courteous. We are to keep our tongues in check at all times…not rendering evil for evil. The tongue is to be in subjection to the heart and not vice versa. If we keep from speaking evil of others who will not agree with us, then our words...our "prayers"....shall not be hindered. No one will hear us if we behave badly and speak evil of others who do not agree with us.

(7) Likewise, ye husbands, dwell with them according to knowledge, giving honour unto the wife, as unto the weaker vessel, and as being heirs together of the grace of life; that your prayers be not hindered.
(8) Finally, be ye all of one mind, having compassion one of another, love as brethren, be pitiful, be courteous:
(9) Not rendering evil for evil, or railing for railing: but contrariwise blessing; knowing that ye are thereunto called, that ye should inherit a blessing.

The tongue is the “woman”…the “wife”….the “weaker vessel”…that we are to refrain from evil (giving honor to the tongue) and not speaking GUILE….deceit (not having an outward adorning of words in order to appeal to men’s lusts).

(10) For he that will love life, and see good days, let him refrain his tongue from evil, and his lips that they speak no guile:
(11) Let him eschew evil, and do good; let him seek peace, and ensue it.

The 144,000 are “virgins”…for they do NOT defile themselves with “women”…that is, they do not defile themselves with their own tongues. They are without fault in speech.

Revelation 14:4-5 KJV
(4) These are they which were not defiled with women; for they are virgins. These are they which follow the Lamb whithersoever he goeth. These were redeemed from among men, being the firstfruits unto God and to the Lamb.

For in their mouth was found NO GUILE….no deceit. They do not defile themselves with “women”…they are “virgins”…without speaking evil and guile.

(5) And in their mouth was found no guile: for they are without fault before the throne of God.

The “bride” is a tongue that is to ready herself. We are to be afflicted and mourn and weep.

James 4:9-10 KJV
(9) Be afflicted, and mourn, and weep: let your laughter be turned to mourning, and your joy to heaviness.

If we humble ourselves in the “sight”of the Lord, He shall lift us up. If we humble ourselves at the hearing of His Word of Truth, He shall lift us up.

(10) Humble yourselves in the sight of the Lord, and he shall lift you up.

“Mary” means “bitterness”. We are to be afflicted and mourn and weep. Like Mary, He will regard our “low estate”…the humbling of ourselves ….and will lift us up. He that is mighty will do us “great things”. We shall magnify the Lord. The things that applied to Mary applies to all of us.

Luke 1:46-49 KJV
(46) And Mary said, My soul doth magnify the Lord,
(47) And my spirit hath rejoiced in God my Saviour.
(48) For he hath regarded the low estate of his handmaiden: for, behold, from henceforth all generations shall call me blessed.
(49) For he that is mighty hath done to me great things; and holy is his name.

If we humble ourselves, we shall find favor with God and He shall lift us up so that we may preach JESUS. We shall bring forth a “son” from our mouths….preaching Jesus in TRUTH.

Luke 1:30-35 KJV
(30) And the angel said unto her, Fear not, Mary: for thou hast found favour with God.
(31) And, behold, thou shalt conceive in thy womb, and bring forth a son, and shalt call his name JESUS.
(32) He shall be great, and shall be called the Son of the Highest: and the Lord God shall give unto him the throne of his father David:
(33) And he shall reign over the house of Jacob for ever; and of his kingdom there shall be no end.
(34) Then said Mary unto the angel, How shall this be, seeing I know not a man?

We shall preach JESUS by the Holy Spirit which shall come upon us. We shall not "know man" who speaks what he knows not. The holy thing which shall be born of us shall be called the Son of God as others shall hear our preaching and Christ shall be formed in them.

(35) And the angel answered and said unto her, The Holy Ghost shall come upon thee, and the power of the Highest shall overshadow thee: therefore also that holy thing which shall be born of thee shall be called the Son of God.

When others shall hear the “salutation of Mary”, the “babe” shall leap inside us when we are filled with what we hear….the Holy Spirit. We are to be filled with what we are hearing….the Holy Spirit. Do not quench the Spirit in our wrath but instead be FILLED with what we hear and REJOICE.

Luke 1:41-45 KJV
(41) And it came to pass, that, when Elisabeth heard the salutation of Mary, the babe leaped in her womb; and Elisabeth was filled with the Holy Ghost:
(42) And she spake out with a loud voice, and said, Blessed art thou among women, and blessed is the fruit of thy womb.
(43) And whence is this to me, that the mother of my Lord should come to me?

As soon as the “voice” of our salutation is heard in others’ ears, the Son of God shall be the holy thing that is “born” in those who shall BELIEVE. The “voice” is really that of the Lord’s and we are to be JOYOUS when we hear Him.

(44) For, lo, as soon as the voice of thy salutation sounded in mine ears, the babe leaped in my womb for joy.

Blessed is “she” that believes…confessing with the tongue.

(45) And blessed is she that believed: for there shall be a performance of those things which were told her from the Lord.

Let us HEAR like Elizabeth and be glad and rejoice and give honor to Him. The “wife” is the tongue that makes herself “ready” by putting all evil and deceit out of the mouth. We are to humble ourselves and not resist what we hear the Spirit saying in wrath and contradictions.

The tongue is a "woman"...pt 2

We are His “wife” so to speak….the tongue that readies herself so that we may speak His words of life and spirit.

Revelation 19: KJV
(7) Let us be glad and rejoice, and give honour to him: for the marriage of the Lamb is come, and his wife hath made herself ready.
(8) And to her was granted that she should be arrayed in fine linen, clean and white: for the fine linen is the righteousness of saints.

Blessed are those which are “called” unto the marriage supper of the Lamb. The tongue that has readied herself shall speak in the Holy Spirit the “true sayings of God” which is a “marriage supper” to be heard by those who will hear and believe and eat of.

(9) And he saith unto me, Write, Blessed are they which are called unto the marriage supper of the Lamb. And he saith unto me, These are the true sayings of God.

We are not to fall at the feet of those who speak His Word….the “true sayings of God”… the testimony of Jesus…but instead honor and worship God who had sent them to speak His words. We are not to honor man over God…but always giving God the glory.

(10) And I fell at his feet to worship him. And he said unto me, See thou do it not: I am thy fellowservant, and of thy brethren that have the testimony of Jesus: worship God: for the testimony of Jesus is the spirit of prophecy.

And the Word of God that is spoken by the Holy Spirit travels in the “heaven”…in the “air” where words fly…..the “heaven” opens as we HEAR His voice from heaven.

The Word spoken by those who are led by the Spirit is the “true sayings of God” which is Faithful and Truth and in righteousness shall judge and make war with those who will fight against what they will hear.

[I](11) And I saw heaven opened, and behold a white horse; and he that sat upon him was called Faithful and True, and in righteousness he doth judge and make war.
(12) His eyes were as a flame of fire, and on his head were many crowns; and he had a name written, that no man knew, but he himself.
(13) And he was clothed with a vesture dipped in blood: and his name is called The Word of God.
(14) And the armies which were in heaven followed him upon white horses, clothed in fine linen, white and clean.
(15) And out of his mouth goeth a sharp sword, that with it he should smite the nations: and he shall rule them with a rod of iron: and he treadeth the winepress of the fierceness and wrath of Almighty God.
(16) And he hath on his vesture and on his thigh a name written, KING OF KINGS, AND LORD OF LORDS.

The Word of God comes as a Light into the world….spoken through His Spirit in the people who have readied themselves. Whosoever shall believe on Him shall not abide in darkness…they shall cast off the works of darkness….the envying and strife and contradiction against what they hear. Those who are born of God shall not “sin”…speak evil of what they will hear.

John 12:46-50 KJV
(46) I am come a light into the world, that whosoever believeth on me should not abide in darkness.
(47) And if any man hear my words, and believe not, I judge him not: for I came not to judge the world, but to save the world.

He that rejects the words of our Lord has one that judges him: the Word that we shall speak……”and I saw heaven opened, and behold a white horse; and he that sat upon him was called Faithful and True, and in righteousness he doth judge and make war”.

(48) He that rejecteth me, and receiveth not my words, hath one that judgeth him: the word that I have spoken, the same shall judge him in the last day.
(49) For I have not spoken of myself; but the Father which sent me, he gave me a commandment, what I should say, and what I should speak.
(50) And I know that his commandment is life everlasting: whatsoever I speak therefore, even as the Father said unto me, so I speak.

Every “idle word” that shall come out of our mouths against what we will hear shall condemn us…as the Word of God in righteousness does judge and make war.

Matthew 12:35-37 KJV
(35) A good man out of the good treasure of the heart bringeth forth good things: and an evil man out of the evil treasure bringeth forth evil things.
(36) But I say unto you, That every idle word that men shall speak, they shall give account thereof in the day of judgment.
(37) For by thy words thou shalt be justified, and by thy words thou shalt be condemned.

Every “idle word” is the “fowls that fly in the midst of heaven”. Words = birds flying in the air. Think about what “twitter” represents…the twittering of birds. When we speak evil words against the Word of Truth, then “birds are flying in the midst of heaven”.

Revelation
(17) And I saw an angel standing in the sun; and he cried with a loud voice, saying to all the fowls that fly in the midst of heaven, Come and gather yourselves together unto the supper of the great God;

Those who will resist the Spirit shall speak evil of what they hear….and their own words shall condemn them as they will perish in their own corruption. They will honor religious- sounding men rather than God. They will worship the beast.

Their own words shall defile their own flesh as they shall make war against the Word of God spoken by the Spirit. The tongue is a fire….a world of evil…that will set the whole course of nature on fire…..sudden destruction.

(18) That ye may eat the flesh of kings, and the flesh of captains, and the flesh of mighty men, and the flesh of horses, and of them that sit on them, and the flesh of all men, both free and bond, both small and great.
(19) And I saw the beast, and the kings of the earth, and their armies, gathered together to make war against him that sat on the horse, and against his army.
(20) And the beast was taken, and with him the false prophet that wrought miracles before him, with which he deceived them that had received the mark of the beast, and them that worshipped his image. These both were cast alive into a lake of fire burning with brimstone.
(21) And the remnant were slain with the sword of him that sat upon the horse, which sword proceeded out of his mouth: and all the fowls were filled with their flesh.

When we will hear the Word of Truth spoken by the Holy Spirit sent down from heaven, we are to gird up the loins of our minds.

1 Peter 1:12-16 KJV
(12) Unto whom it was revealed, that not unto themselves, but unto us they did minister the things, which are now reported unto you by them that have preached the gospel unto you with the Holy Ghost sent down from heaven; which things the angels desire to look into.

We are to be “sober”…and not speak out in the wine of wrath as we are not to fashion ourselves according to the envying and strife we once behaved in our ignorance of the knowledge of the Truth.

(13) Wherefore gird up the loins of your mind, be sober, and hope to the end for the grace that is to be brought unto you at the revelation of Jesus Christ;
(14) As obedient children, not fashioning yourselves according to the former lusts in your ignorance:
(15) But as he which hath called you is holy, so be ye holy in all manner of conversation;
(16) Because it is written, Be ye holy; for I am holy.

The tongue is a "woman"...pt 3

When He comes and knocks upon the door of our hearts via the ears, let us open our hearts unto Him immediately. The “wedding” is that of the tongue that is married to the Word and speaks His words in Truth. The “bride” will have readied herself ....having put away all guile, wrath and evil....and will have been granted the right to speak the “true sayings of God”. After the wedding of that tongue with the Truth, blessed are those who will hear what that tongue has to say…for it has been married to the Word of God.

Luke 12:35-46 KJV
(35) Let your loins be girded about, and your lights burning;
(36) And ye yourselves like unto men that wait for their lord, when he will return from the wedding; that when he cometh and knocketh, they may open unto him immediately.

We shall be fed with the meat of the Truth if we hear and behave well. The wedding “supper” is the words of Him that we are to eat in belief of what we hear. The marriage "supper" is the "true sayings of God" by those who preach what they hear the Spirit saying.

(37) Blessed are those servants, whom the lord when he cometh shall find watching: verily I say unto you, that he shall gird himself, and make them to sit down to meat, and will come forth and serve them.
(38) And if he shall come in the second watch, or come in the third watch, and find them so, blessed are those servants.
(39) And this know, that if the goodman of the house had known what hour the thief would come, he would have watched, and not have suffered his house to be broken through.

We are to entertain “strangers”….for their words may be His. We are to be “ready” at all times….letting brotherly love continue always. The Son of man comes at an hour when you think not….are we listening?

(40) Be ye therefore ready also: for the Son of man cometh at an hour when ye think not.
(41) Then Peter said unto him, Lord, speakest thou this parable unto us, or even to all?

Will we be hospitable toward the “strangers” in “due season” who will come speaking His words of life and spirit? Abraham served the men who appeared unto Him with a “meal”…entertaining those who had come to his tent. He that receives His disciples, receives Him that sent them.

(42) And the Lord said, Who then is that faithful and wise steward, whom his lord shall make ruler over his household, to give them their portion of meat in due season?

Blessed is the servant whom the Lord when He comes shall find us doing so…being hospitable…entertaining strangers….letting brotherly love continue.

Hebrews 13:1-2 KJV
(1) Let brotherly love continue.
(2) Be not forgetful to entertain strangers: for thereby some have entertained angels unawares.

"Marriage" is honorable in all and the bed undefiled. If we use our mouths as a cover for covetousness, then we are being "adulterers". We are not to defile ourselves with "women"....the tongue that speaks deceit because of the hidden covetousness within the heart.

Hebrews 13:3-6 KJV
(3) Remember them that are in bonds, as bound with them; and them which suffer adversity, as being yourselves also in the body.
(4) Marriage is honourable in all, and the bed undefiled: but whoremongers and adulterers God will judge.
(5) Let your conversation be without covetousness; and be content with such things as ye have: for he hath said, I will never leave thee, nor forsake thee.
(6) So that we may boldly say, The Lord is my helper, and I will not fear what man shall do unto me.

Blessed are those who will HEAR and behave with goodness and not with wrath and contradictions against what one will hear. Blessed are those who will do His commandments....having LOVE for each other at all times...for they shall have the right to the tree of life. The tongue is a tree of life. Jesus sends His messenger to testify of these things. The tongue is the "bride" that speaks what the Spirit is saying....and let those who hear say "come"...being inviting and hospitable towards those who will speak the Word of God in Truth to them.

Revelation 22:14-17 KJV
(14) Blessed are they that do his commandments, that they may have right to the tree of life, and may enter in through the gates into the city.
(15) For without are dogs, and sorcerers, and whoremongers, and murderers, and idolaters, and whosoever loveth and maketh a lie.
(16) I Jesus have sent mine angel to testify unto you these things in the churches. I am the root and the offspring of David, and the bright and morning star.
(17) And the Spirit and the bride say, Come. And let him that heareth say, Come. And let him that is athirst come. And whosoever will, let him take the water of life freely.

[2013]

Divorce....

The tongue is a “woman” that can be used for deceit…..handling the Word of God deceitfully in order to enrich one’s self. The misusing of the tongue for deceit is “fornication”…..being used to hide the covetousness within the heart.

It is a “wife” that we are to “put away” . She can be a “wife” when we have received the teachings of men who know not what they are saying. Why “marry” the strange doctrines of men and make them part of our religious language? We are to “put away” the “wife” of fornication….

Matthew 19:8-9 KJV
(8) He saith unto them, Moses because of the hardness of your hearts suffered you to put away your wives: but from the beginning it was not so.
(9) And I say unto you, Whosoever shall put away his wife, except it be for fornication, and shall marry another, committeth adultery: and whoso marrieth her which is put away doth commit adultery.

…..renouncing the hidden things of dishonesty ….not walking in craftiness….nor handling the Word of God deceitfully.

2 Corinthians 4:2 KJV
(2) But have renounced the hidden things of dishonesty, not walking in craftiness, nor handling the word of God deceitfully; but by manifestation of the truth commending ourselves to every man's conscience in the sight of God.

The “wife” Jezebel is a “teacher” who seduces His servants to commit “fornication” and to eat things sacrificed to idols. “She” is the tongue of men who teach things that ought not be …..for “filthy lucre”.

We can not serve both God and Mammon. We can not sit there with them in their presence. We can not keep company with the covetous who call themselves “brothers”…..for we are perishing away in their idolatry. Our mortal bodies are being led down the path to our destruction by being led astray by her. Her paths lead to the grave and no one who goes to her LIVES.

We are involved in idol worship when we sit there with them….affirming of their sayings….living according to their lusts for bigger church buildings, bigger congregations, bigger ministries….etc….etc…..etc.

Revelation 2:20-22 KJV
(20) Notwithstanding I have a few things against thee, because thou sufferest that woman Jezebel, which calleth herself a prophetess, to teach and to seduce my servants to commit fornication, and to eat things sacrificed unto idols.
(21) And I gave her space to repent of her fornication; and she repented not.
(22) Behold, I will cast her into a bed, and them that commit adultery with her into great tribulation, except they repent of their deeds.

Shall we become one with a “harlot”….sitting there listening and affirming of those who teach deceitfully as a cover for their covetousness? Shall we receive their sayings ….their thoughts and ways? We become “one FLESH” with them….we perish like they do….just like the rest of the men of this world who have no religious affiliations. There is no difference in their mortal lives as compared to the rest of the world. We die as mere men….sinning against our own body when we are joined together with them.

1 Corinthians 6:16-18 KJV
(16) What? know ye not that he which is joined to an harlot is one body? for two, saith he, shall be one flesh.
(17) But he that is joined unto the Lord is one spirit.

We are to flee “fornication”….flee covetousness….flee the abomination of desolation.

(18) Flee fornication. Every sin that a man doeth is without the body; but he that committeth fornication sinneth against his own body.

For NO ONE who has married “her” LIVES. They all have died….and their sayings….the church fathers’ transmissions (traditions) are passed down and many continue to “marry” the “wife”. NO ONE LIVES who has married her. We have many graveyards as proof....yet others continue to "marry" her.

Matthew 22:25-32 KJV
(25) Now there were with us seven brethren: and the first, when he had married a wife, deceased, and, having no issue, left his wife unto his brother:
(26) Likewise the second also, and the third, unto the seventh.
(27) And last of all the woman died also.
(28) Therefore in the resurrection whose wife shall she be of the seven? for they all had her.
(29) Jesus answered and said unto them, Ye do err, not knowing the scriptures, nor the power of God.

We shall not marry her….but shall be as the messengers of God in heaven…speaking the true sayings of God...the words of the prophets and apostles in the Spirit of Truth. We shall know the Scriptures and the power of God which shall keep us alive in the here and now. We shall not die….like those who had previously “married” their church fathers’ covetous sayings….teachings and commandments of men that do not save us.

(30) For in the resurrection they neither marry, nor are given in marriage, but are as the angels of God in heaven.
(31) But as touching the resurrection of the dead, have ye not read that which was spoken unto you by God, saying,
(32) I am the God of Abraham, and the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob? God is not the God of the dead, but of the living.

We are to “come out of her”….so that we do not partake of her sins and receive of her plagues. When we leave the company of those who call themselves but are covetous, they will burn with wrath…..speaking of us as “evil doers”. But the tongue is a fire….one in which sets their lives on fire. The flattering tongue of men shall disappear and we shall see who they really are with their mouths who will speak evil of us….the “man of sin” shall reveal himself with an evil mouth.

Revelation 18:4-8 KJV
(4) And I heard another voice from heaven, saying, Come out of her, my people, that ye be not partakers of her sins, and that ye receive not of her plagues.
(5) For her sins have reached unto heaven, and God hath remembered her iniquities.
(6) Reward her even as she rewarded you, and double unto her double according to her works: in the cup which she hath filled fill to her double.
(7) How much she hath glorified herself, and lived deliciously, so much torment and sorrow give her: for she saith in her heart, I sit a queen, and am no widow, and shall see no sorrow.
