1 Corinthians 11: RIGHT FELLOWSHIP AND HEADSHIP IN THE LORD

Oftentimes, many believers get together to fellowship in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ, yet they sit and break the word down in their own understanding, so as to debate the knowledge and understanding of another, which sows discord among the saints of God. We all believe we know the infaliable word of God, and believe we are carrying it out to the best of our ability, but we are not to judge one another based on their belief. What God had declared from us is to speak the true word of God, hear one another and allow his word to do what it will do with each one of us, weather we agree with the other or not. Our words mean nothing; so, just because the words are coming out of our mouth, it is not us that the hearer should believe, but the spirit that dwells within us. It is the God in us, that will allow those who are not knowledgeable of the true word of God, to be won over by Christ, not we ourselves. Remove yourself from the equation when witnessing and trust that God’s word will do what it said it will do. We bring offence to ourselves when we take it personal that one’s belief is different from ours. The word will do what we can not do. Hebrews 4:12, tells us what the word of God will do, so why are we trying to do it for God?

Also, concerning the authority role of men and women, we have gotten his word so twisted, that we take the parables of Jesus and use them face value. When God uses the parable of a man and a woman’s covering, we often believe it is the hair or a hat, when in all actuality, he is speaking of his authoritative power in them, and the role it is given. Man has a wife, and his duty is not to carry out his role without the covering of God who is his head, to lead her; he has to be covered at all times under the authority of God. Woman has a husband, who is her covering, because of the head of her husband is God, she is under the authority of her husband (both covered by God, not hair or hat). A man that goes before God without proper covering of his mind, defiles himself. He is out of alignment if he is not with a wife, but a woman, whom he is not married and present himself to the people of God as a preacher or prophet. A woman with a man who is not her husband cannot come before God without proper covering of her head, and profess to be a true woman of God preaching and prophesying to the people of God, she brings shame to her head, so it is important that she be properly covered through marriage; or they both remain single.
God made woman from man, not man from woman; and women birth men, men do not birth women; therefore woman was made for man, not man for woman, no one was made to be ruler of the other, for they both belong to God, and without his covering they will both bring harm to their own head (mind).

And He said, "To you it has been granted to know the mysteries of the kingdom of God, but to the rest it is in parables, so that SEEING THEY MAY NOT SEE, AND HEARING THEY MAY NOT UNDERSTAND.
