Maybe we resurrect a thread on this doctrine ... and discuss it there ...

back to to the matter of hand ... if a Holiness pastor does not have this "gift of discernment of spirits" ... how does he spot Jezebel in his Holy Ghost filled church?

a tree is known by its fruit.......fornication and idolatry

Maybe a statue of Baal!

Rev 2:20 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.

Has anyone on this thread mentioned makeup and Jezebel in the same breath except you? Who are you arguing with?

This a pervasive argument made by Holiness preachers for decades, Mizpeh that I'm addressing ... it's a tangent from a different discussion we were having on Holiness standards.

I have addressed this other prophetess in my initial post.

Jezabel is a rebelious spirit. So just look for the rebelious people. But because they are going against the grain does not make one rebelious. Jezabel spirit is rebelion against God often times it is taught it is ONLY rebelion against preachers.

Agreed ... it is by their fruits.

however, apparently women are still subject to being called whores and harlots in churches and church literature... for wearing cosmetics.

Coon(skinner) is a poster here ... that you remind me of.

Glad you clarified.

I am sure based on YOUR postings that "Coon(skinner)" is a good man.

So do you believe you can be in rebellion against the ministry, and not be in rebellion against God?

Its seems a bit obsessive. Makeup now give women the orgasmic look?

It's sick.

It is not only obsessive but ridiculous...everyone knows a woman in the throws of "O" could care less about her make-up

Was Jezebel a whore? Maybe in a spiritual sense.

Exactly the thrust of my post ... No evidence she was involved in said profession.

she seduced the anointed man of God and His people away from the God of Israel.
