Gloria
Copeland, of Copeland Ministries, is a false
prophet. I was listening to her preach on TV, listening to all the
watered-down and twisted Scriptures, thinking about what the Bible has to say
about rebellious women. The Word of God teaches that women should never
preach to men, it is a SHAME. Gloria Copeland is a feminist.
A feminist has a manly look, a bossy look, an opinion, a take charge look, an attitude—acting like A MAN. The Word of God teaches that women are to maintain a “shamefaced” look (i.e., to be extremely modest, without opinion, quiet, and a follower) ... “In like manner also, that women adorn themselves in modest apparel, with shamefacedness...” (1st Timothy 2:9). I can hear some feminist rebel right now scoffing, “You mean women can't have an opinion?” No, the Bible says you cannot—not when it pertains to men's matters, a man's authority in the home, or the business of the church.
A godly woman obeys her husband (Titus 2:5), she remains quiet in the church's business (1st Corinthians 14:34), she asks questions to her husband at home (1st Corinthians 14:35). In sharp contrast to God's way, today's American feminist has a defiant attitude against authority—she wants a say in everything, sasses her husband and pastor, and meddles in things she ought not. It is a horrible sin! Women who pursue careers over marriage and motherhood are blaspheming the Word of God.
Now, I'm not endorsing Islam, but concerning women, the Arab culture comes much closer to being right than the American feminist culture of bossy wives, women preachers and career women. Rebellious Americans consider a woman being required to dresses modestly a form of oppression. Albeit, the American lewd and nude culture has inspired generations of sexual immorality, abortion and homosexuality.
Arab women are required (it's not an option) to obey their husbands and remain silent. I love that. Call me what you want... the Word of God proclaims A MAN as the head of his home, A MAN as the pastor of the church, and A MAN as a preacher of God's Word. America's women are out of control—which is clearly seen in the abortion rate, the divorce rate, pornography, et cetera. The Word of God teaches that women are to remain SILENT in the churches.
“Let your women keep silence in the churches: for it is not permitted unto them to speak; but they are commanded to be under obedience, as also saith the law.” —1st Corinthians 14:34
I'm using Gloria Copeland as an example of a sinister minister, but there are thousands of such rebellious women all across America; such as, Joyce Meyer, who exploit the Gospel for personal gain (i.e., money, power, prestige, et cetera). I couldn't believe what Gloria Copeland was teaching in her sermonette. She was teaching that you could say to your debts, “Debts, you are paid in the name of Jesus.” Huh? Whatever happened to paying off your debts? It's crazy! Nowadays, people can be totally irresponsible with their finances, and then have some false prophet alleviate their guilt. Gloria Copeland is just another health, wealth, and prosperity false teacher. Listen to what the Word of God says concerning such false teachers...
“For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but after their own lusts shall they heap to themselves teachers, having itching ears.” —2nd Timothy 4:3
Televangelists will say and do
whatever is necessary to get your money. It is evil.
Women are Not to Have EQUAL Authority with Men!
“I will ascend above the heights of the clouds; I will be like the most High.” —Isaiah 14:14
In Isaiah 14:14, Lucifer didn't want to be greater than God, he wanted to be EQUAL with God. When Satan came to Eve in the Garden of Eden, in the form of a serpent, he said to Eve in Genesis 3:5, “For God doth know that in the day ye eat thereof, then your eyes shall be opened, and ye shall be as gods...” The serpent (Satan according to Revelation 20:2) deceitfully told Eve that she would become EQUAL with God (“as gods”). Feminists don't want to boss men around, or be in charge of everything, they simply want to be EQUAL in authority. Such ambitions for equality of authority with men is sinful.
Feminists wants EQUAL authority in the marriage, EQUAL authority in society, EQUAL authority in the church, et cetera ... it has become a curse upon America. The 52% divorce rate is a direct result of feminism. Feminism and women preachers are inseparable. Some people will argue that women can teach or preach to other women, but this idea is not found in the Bible. The Word of God clearly instructs wives to learn at home FROM THEIR HUSBAND. Unmarried women should ask their father, or their pastor. We need a revival of wifely submission and a proper attitude toward authority in our homes and churches.
When God needed the ark to be built, he didn't come to Mrs. Noah. God didn't come to Noah AND his wife. No, God came to Noah ... the MAN. Everything that God ever needed done in the Bible, he came to A MAN. There were NO women high priests, or priests, in the Old Testament. It was A MAN who slew Goliath. It was A MAN, Moses, whom God called to lead his people out of Egypt. It was MEN, who penned the entire Bible. All of the Apostles were MEN. The only place in the Old Testament where we find women prophetesses (such as Deborah), is in the days of the judges, a time of social anarchy and civil unrest. BUT, this was not the norm.
As America increasingly becomes apostate, and men turn away from the Lord Jesus Christ, women false prophets are flourishing everywhere. The Holy Bible pronounces a CURSE upon any society where women bear rule over men. Isaiah 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.” The heathen world elects women to political office, which has always been disastrous, but God does tell the unsaved world how to do run their affairs. The Word of God is written to believers, not the world who despise and reject it; nor can the unsaved man understand it (1st Corinthians 2:14-16). In a stable society, where men rule their marriages and homes, such rebellion would not be tolerated. America has become a feminist nation, where women legally have EQUALITY of power with their husbands. Communists and liberals attempt to make the issue a matter of women's rights, but it is a matter of rebellion against God-ordained authority in the marriage, home and church. God will punish all evildoers (Hebrews 4:13; Ecclesiastes 12:14).
To legally take that position away from him is wickedness, apostasy, and a curse upon America. A rebellious wife in America is a curse upon her husband, and there's little he can do about it. This is a great evil in the United States.
Photo to Right: A bumper sticker mocking God, as sold on the National Organization of Women's (NOW) website. Clearly, they are God haters! If there's ever been a time when America's Christian women need to be submissive to authority, it is today; but, they are not. Today's so-called "Christian wives" are as rebellious as the heathen world, and the divorce rate just as high. God hates rebellion, and calls it witchcraft in 1st Samuel 15:23.
I've received tons of letters lately, from people who are trying to REDEFINE the Word of God to fit their own agendas. For example: I have received several letters from homosexuals, who claim that the Bible never actually condemns homosexuality. Well, they're liars! Leviticus 20:13 and Romans Chapter 1 clearly condemn homosexuality. Romans 1:25 told us this would happen. I've received many letters from Wiccan witches, claiming that Jesus taught love and acceptance of all people, even witches. They allege that Jesus wouldn't speak out against their witchcraft.
On the contrary, Jesus would throw a fit. Jesus would cry aloud against Wicca, exposing it as demonism. Jesus would receive any repentant Wiccan who wanted to be saved; BUT, He would preach with utter contempt and hatred against Wicca itself. Likewise, I received a letter this week from a woman who claimed to be a "Christian feminist." Biblically, there is NO such thing as a "Christian feminist." There is nothing "Christian" about rebellion, which is exactly what feminism is. Feminists use the "equal rights" argument in a malicious attempt to gain equal AUTHORITY in society.
A society which recognizes women as EQUAL in authority with men can only lead to social breakdown and a destabilization of its families. Women preachers are USURPING authority which rightfully belongs only to God's men. If women want to help society for God, then they need to do what they can to support ministries which are operated by MEN of God.
“But I suffer not a woman to teach, nor to usurp authority over the man...” —1st Timothy 2:12
All Women Preachers are False Prophets!
“I will therefore that the younger women marry, bear children, guide the house, give none occasion to the adversary to speak reproachfully.” —1st Timothy 5:14
Gloria Copeland (and her husband, Kenneth) are false prophets, exploiting the Gospel for greedy gain. So it shouldn't be surprising that Gloria Copeland would also disobey the Word of God concerning women remaining SILENT in the church. Women belong at home, baking cookies, and raising the children. As feminists mock and ridicule such Biblical principles, and become "career women," America's children are growing up without parents. Instead, children are being demonically indoctrinated with video games, hellivision, and the godless public school system—and the decadence of society increasingly gets worse. Mom belongs at home, teaching and caring for the kids.
The financial sacrifices are well worth the benefits. Then again, the U.S. government punishes such a family, by increasingly subverting America's economy, and making it almost impossible to live on one salary anymore. No wonder America is falling apart. Our government leaders have sold their souls to Satan, and have sold America's citizens into financial slavery. Still, the mother belongs at home.
As with all false prophets, the Copelands always have something to sell you. On the particular day I watched the show, they were selling a work titled, “A Collection of Healing Confessions and Scriptures.” The advertisement said “reach out and receive healing today ... know Him as Healer.” Folks, don't waste your money. The word-faith-healing movement is of the Devil. These false teachers exploit Christianity and sick people, for their own personal gain. They prey upon widows and hurting souls. It's one of the oldest con games in the world... prey upon sick, aged and hurting people... with promises of a brighter tomorrow... if they'll empty out their wallets! The truth is free! If someone really loves you, they won't exploit you to get your money. The Charismatic movement is all about money. And sadly, today's Baptist neo-evangelicals with their false modern Bible revisions and Lordship Salvation are no better. Evangelist Ken Ham's Ark Encounter in Kentucky admittedly is a for-profit business venture. Tragically, Ken Ham teaches a false Gospel of Lordship Salvation.
The Bible teaches that women are more prone to teach false doctrines than men...
“But I suffer not a woman to teach, nor to usurp authority over the man, but to be in silence. For Adam was first formed, then Eve. And Adam was not deceived, but the woman being deceived was in the transgression.” —1st Timothy 2:12
The Word of God gives us two reasons why women should not have equal authority with men:
It is America's foolish women who are allowing themselves to become pregnant, and then aborting their own babies. It is America's foolish women who are sinfully taking their clothes off, and posing for godless pornographic magazines. It is America's foolish women who are rebelling against their husbands and causing the divorce rate to skyrocket. Although women would like to EQUALLY blame men for the evils of society, and they are certainly to blame, women are primarily to blame because they have CHOSEN to become feminists.
Feminist women claim to have a "right" to kill their baby, a "right" to be immoral with their bodies (causing lasciviousness and sexual crimes in society), a "right" to disobey their husbands, a "right" to pastor churches and preach; but, they do NOT have a right from God to do these wicked abominations. Just as Eve was deceived, women preachers have been deceived into believing that they can have authority in the church.
Eve was deceived because she was the WEAKER vessel...
“Likewise, ye husbands, dwell with them according to knowledge, giving honour unto the wife, as unto the weaker vessel...” —1st Peter 3:7
A women who does a man's job is a feminist. There's something very wrong with a woman police officer--who acts tough, works out with weights, carries a gun, talks tough to men, and has rough attitude. In fact, it disgusting to the name of femininity. There's nothing feminine about women cops, or women in the military. It's unbiblical, and wrong. This just proves how much Satan has warped people's minds in America, to where little girls are no longer growing up to be homemakers; but, to become plastic explosive experts, tank drivers, soldiers, trained to kill people.
She-men! Last I checked, 83 U.S. female soldiers had been sexually-assaulted in Iraq, not including the covered-up rape of Jessica Lynch. Women don't belong on the battle-field. Women don't belong in the military! Women belong at home, "I will therefore that the younger women marry, bear children, guide the house, give none occasion to the adversary to speak reproachfully" -1st Timothy 5:14." The whole concept of career women is unbiblical, and anti-family.
You may not like this article, but the truth needs to be spoken. America has spit in God's face in every way, by breaking all of God's commandments. Then people wonder why, like complete morons, why America is going down the drain in so many ways. Prayer was removed from the public schools in 1962, the Bible in 1963. We are going to get what we deserve in America! You cannot live in sin and prosper indefinitely!!! America's decadence and moral corruption are catching up with her! We are losing our freedoms! Rebellious women are the main problem in America.
“The spiritual life of a nation, city, town, school, church, or home never rises any higher than the spiritual life of women.” —Dr. R. G. Lee (from the classic sermon, “Payday Someday”)
There is nothing less spiritual than a woman preacher.
Women Who Are as Bad as Witches
“For rebellion is as the sin of witchcraft...” —1st Samuel 15:23
God classifies rebellion as witchcraft! Every rebellious wife is just as guilty as a God-hating witch, and all witches are God-haters. God hates witchcraft and calls it a sin ... “the sin of witchcraft” (1st Samuel 15:23). Witchcraft is a vile sin, and so is rebellion. Women preachers are rebelling against the plain teachings of the Word of God, by claiming that the Bible doesn't mean what it says. God said what He meant, and meant what He said. 1st Peter 3:6 states, “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.” Sara respect Abraham, calling him “lord” (sir).
This level of obedience is virtually unheard of nowadays. I realize that I've been speaking much about rebellious wives in this article, even though the subject at hand is women preachers, BUT the two are inseparable. The reason why there are so many women preachers today, is because men are not in control of their marriages. The corrupt U.S. court system is largely to blame for empowering rebellious women to crucify their authoritative husbands, which is equivalent to the sin of witchcraft. The ungodly court system has effectively castrated men, leveling the playing field so that women now wear the pants, literally. American society has become plagued with mental-homosexuals, where both husband and wife wear the pants in the family. This is wrong. A man is to lead his home, and keep his wife in line. In America, a rebellious wife is free to destroy her marriage and family, and the husband has little recourse to correct the problem. This is gross wickedness in the sight of a holy God.
Such disrespect and shirking of one's responsibilities would never be tolerated in a truly Christian culture. America is a false Christian culture—plagued with false religions, false prophets, occult leaders, damnable heresies, foolish teachings, feminism, women preachers, rebellious wives, and sinfully proud people. America is bound for moral, economic, and spiritual destruction. Women preachers are in league with witches, by disobeying God's command for women to remain SILENT in the churches.
“The prophets prophesy falsely, and the priests bear rule by their means; and my people love to have it so...” —Jeremiah 5:31
