Woman are more likely to get deceived by divination (when the devil is running a special ... wink wink ) and they certainty are more prone to mothering which makes the vulnerable to sentimental solutions that do not separate the wheat from the chaff.
Below a portion for Isaiah that looks a like some of our modern spooky and superstitious ideas of spiritual warfare.
17 “Likewise, son of man, set your face against the daughters of your people, who prophesy out of their own heart; prophesy against them,
18 “and say, ‘Thus says the Lord God: “Woe to the women who sew magic charms on their sleeves and make veils for the heads of people of every height to hunt souls! Will you hunt the souls of My people, and keep yourselves alive?
19 “And will you profane Me among My people for handfuls of barley and for pieces of bread, killing people who should not die, and keeping people alive who should not live, by your lying to My people who listen to lies?”
20 ‘Therefore thus says the Lord God: “Behold, I am against your magic charms by which you hunt souls there like birds. I will tear them from your arms, and let the souls go, the souls you hunt like birds.
21 “I will also tear off your veils and deliver My people out of your hand, and they shall no longer be as prey in your hand. Then you shall know that I am the Lord.
22 “Because with lies you have made the heart of the righteous sad, whom I have not made sad; and you have strengthened the hands of the wicked, so that he does not turn from his wicked way to save his life.
23 “Therefore you shall no longer envision futility nor practice divination; for I will deliver My people out of your hand, and you shall know that I am the Lord.” ’ ”
Ezekiel 13:17-23
Guys, the church is in the process of losing a war. Maybe the men should get up and be men again again instead of this mushy and very effeminate and irrational Jesus we grew up on in the west.
We made Jesus into out boyfriend who is more worried about our happiness ant His Kingdom. This is a mistake. Jesus is a man and He is at war.
The Jesus in the Bible was extremely confrontational and never missed an opportunity to confront sin and rebuke the wicked.
8 I desire therefore that the men pray everywhere, lifting up holy hands, without wrath and doubting;
9 in like manner also, that the women adorn themselves in modest apparel, with propriety and moderation, not with braided hair or gold or pearls or costly clothing,
10 but, which is proper for women professing godliness, with good works.
11 Let a woman learn in silence with all submission.
12 And I do not permit a woman to teach or to have authority over a man, but to be in silence.
13 For Adam was formed first, then Eve.
1 Timothy 2:1-13
