Where is the gospel meaning and purpose in men not having a sexual relationship with woman? An all male priesthood?
Should we look for the spiritual meaning according to 2 Corinthians 4:18, hid in the
"signified language" of God as parables?
Revelation 1 King James Version (KJV) The Revelation of Jesus Christ, which God gave unto him, to shew unto his servants things which must shortly come to pass; and
he sent and "signified it" by his angel unto his servant John:
The gospel is in respect to the new bride.(new creation) Not divorced Israel. Divorced Israel is used to represent natural unconverted mankind or the strange woman . Not all Israel are born again Christians .The new name God named His bride the church.
Galatians 3:28 There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither bond nor free, there is neither
male nor female: for ye are all
one in Christ Jesus.
Its the end of time the Sun and Moon the temporal time keepers are under the feet of His bride the church according to Revelation chapter 11.The kingdoms as the god of this world the great whore or strange woman has come to a end .
And the seventh angel sounded; and there were great voices in heaven, saying, The kingdoms of
this world are become
the kingdoms of our Lord, and of his Christ; and he shall reign
for ever and ever.Revelation 11:15
The woman in Chapter 12 is the chaste virgin bride the church .She is the mother of us all. She is signified by the number 144,00 to represent a unknown. God does not number his people .We walk by faith
Male he made mankind as one creation (male and female) in the image of God not seen . She is first shown in Genesis 3:15 with the spiritual seed Christ.
The apposing woman, the strange woman make up the gods of this world in the likeness of men. We are to have no gods typified as woman before or living God .The first commandment
Acts 14:11 And when the people saw what Paul had done, they lifted up their voices, saying in the speech of Lycaonia, The
gods are come down to us in the
likeness of
men.
So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them. Genesis 2:27
Its defiled mankind represented as the strange woman. The believers (male and female)as the bride of Christ are to have no gods before our living God . Again the 144,000 represent the elect.
Proverbs 23:27For a whore is a deep ditch; and a
strange woman is a
narrow pit.
Proverbs 5:3For the lips of a
strange woman drop as an honeycomb, and
her mouth is smoother than oil:
