Post 305
I do not believe, even today; in the blossom of woman’s liberation, that she yet knows the power she has over man. A man will kill himself to provide for the welfare and happiness of his wife… and he will be content to loaf on the couch watching the game or fish the day away along a quiet stream letting her do all the work, if that’s what she wants. Though it deeply bothers him, it does not destroy him to act out his stability in a wide variety of applications fitting the conditions. Women are glorified as muli-taskers with many simultaneous tracks, while men are belittled for being single-minded plodders… but what is not considered is that single track is extraordinarily versatile over seemingly impassable terrain. And did you forget that we are actually talking about the Typology that this life represents? God has provided the scriptures to tell us plainly that he is willing to go fishing while you run things if that is what you want. But when things come undone you cry out in accusation; “Why do you let this happen?!”
“O LORD, how long shall I cry, and thou wilt not hear! even cry out unto thee of violence, and thou wilt not save! Why doest thou shew me iniquity, and cause me to behold grievance? for spoiling and violence are before me: and there are that raise up strife and contention. Therefore (; because of that condition) the law is slacked, and judgment doth never go forth: for the wicked doth compass about the righteous; therefore wrong judgment proceedeth” Habakkuk 1:2-4.
Throughout this voluminous series-- and especially in the last few Posts-- of “Isaiah 28:9-10 style” stepped reasoning, we have awakened to a whole new perspective that realizes the fault for this mess is not God’s, but rather falls directly upon our own shoulders… both as collective humanity and as specifically the Christian body of Christ.
But by the similar phrasing of our earlier Jeremiah 31:22 verse; Is God blanketly accusing women of being wicked and identifying men as being righteous?
Not directly really… but it is a concept that does, (it’s complex, but we’re getting to that in time). It is primarily the Typology of Democracy over Republicanism, Emotion over Law, followers over leaders, women over men, humanity over God. It is a perception-correcting concept… Sooo in a way, conceptually; when women choose to rebel against male leadership and protection, then, Yes; they in wickedness have compassed righteous man. Today the resulting conflict is termed “Gender Wars.” Remember? in Post 303 we asked what kinds of wars God promised as a result of an imperfect heart.
“…Herein (; as to your perfect heart) thou hast done foolishly: therefore from henceforth thou shalt have wars” II Chronicles 16:9b.
This too is conceptual in Typology of something much bigger that we are still getting to. But here is an insight:
“From whence come wars and fightings among you? Come they not hence, even of your lusts that war in your members?” James 4:1.
“And when ye shall hear of wars and rumours of wars, be ye not troubled: for such things must needs be; but the end shall not be yet” Mark 13:7.

So, am I blaming women for the unspeakable crimes against the female gender happening today at epidemic proportions? Is pornography, child molestation and prostitution, sex slavery, slave wives, and general oppression and violence against females; somehow women’s fault? - “How absurd!”
You think? (I Timothy 2:14, Ezekiel 16:35-36<, Revelation 17:2). Don’t stone me yet.
Men have failed. and failed catastrophically. Nobody can deny that in the overall scope of things men and governments in general have become predators of those they are supposed to protect and they now prey on them to the most heinous and unimaginable ways and degrees. The news is daily chock full of stories along this line, such as today’s [Nov. 13] headline (*1) that Canada just broke up its, largest by far, child pornography ring of unimaginable size and reach where hundreds of people in 94 countries were arrested, all connected to this single organization that produced photographic evidence of abuse to unprecedented degrees of wickedness. And this is but one organization among countless others on an epidemic scale of global proportions. Women as a gender, and as a Typology of oppressed people, need relief, they need an option. Women today seem to have no choice now but to rebel; cast out the men and take over the ship. And it seems they not only have God’s blessing and favor to do it, but have his pre-designed aid as well:
“…The LORD hath created a new thing in the earth, A woman shall compass a man” Jeremiah 31:22.
I have shown that this speaks of genders, of nations, and of faith toward God. It’s a VERY big concept of proportions even yet uncomprehended… but wait for it, the comprehension-- the “I suddenly get it” moment-- is coming though it seems to tarry (Isaiah 46:12-13, Habakkuk 2:3).

So what do women do with their new liberation? This is our topic of the new generation; the virgin children of an established people. The scriptures have much to say on this topic in end-times proportions, but we need some parameters of comprehension, so current reality is happening to show us the mystery that it represents. Let’s take the time to carefully walk through the temporal concept discreetly, before we get to the scriptural meaning they represent:
What is the difference between a “Cougar” (*2) and a “Sex Kitten” (*3)? (Ezekiel 23:2-4).
That is a question that seems to have an easy answer: Innocence. But it’s not very practical to assume a sex kitten is actually innocent or she wouldn’t have such a label. No, the answer seems restricted to nothing more than age: she is young, immature, excited to explore and experience all that the Cougar already knows and is board of without the addition of power. So in this light, though the sex kitten is voracious for immorality, she is in a way, innocent of the results for which she hungers. And so we understand that even a virgin can be a whoring sex kitten before she technically becomes a whore.
A Miss America beauty pageant is titled that, not because all the contestants are actually Miss rather than Ms, but because they all fit within the category of “should be Miss.” Again, it’s an age-of-life thing. It’s a description of a young woman who, by the fact of her youth, is at the height of her beauty and bloom of potential because of her age, but more than that; it’s a description of a young woman who is still available in most every way: intellectually, emotionally, and physically. This is important for the success of the show because it implies, like the display of desirable merchandise on an auction block; she could be yours if the circumstances of fantasy were just right; you could “help her reach her ‘potential’.” This is the natural appeal to man, and because she advertises herself in this public auction-block way, it’s obvious by the hungrily teased man that she is wanting that too (I Thessalonians 4:4-6).
The display of such merchandise under the title of Mrs. America is less successful for all the opposite reasons. Although her beauty is still appealing to view for free; she is already “off the market,” so to examine the goods at that degree of offering is paramount to adultery (Matthew 5:28), furthermore, she is already experienced in life and so has less potential yet remaining to “help her explore.” Examining the goods of something new that you might rightly purchase just seems like a far less dishonorable thing in the eye of the self-conscious voyeur, so the show of the “Miss” is far more socially acceptable than the other. She “wins” for the attention and praise she gets from men, they win because they get to inspect the merchandise without buying, the show wins because it makes them lots of money; EVERYONE WINS!... while the morality of the country crumbles due to the shifting fringe of social abomination.
The difference between a Cougar and a Sex Kitten is who has the title-role of dominate control in the similar events. And while a self-respecting man might take joy in serving his lady, he will not submit to being the servant of his lady. That is the realm of the Cougar.
So it is in symbolism regarding a biblical virgin, which is a city; a specific people-group under a specific “parameter” of conduct. This virginity is a “state of age and experience” thing; it’s a designation that connotes something that “should be” under normal circumstances because of the stage of life, it’s like the difference between a town and a city except it’s speaking on a different plane. Now of course as the reality becomes closer to the Typology without the symbolism we get closer to the ultimate and important meaning. But don’t just skip over the symbolism that makes a point before the final meaning arrives. This is the whole point of a WARNING.
* * *
In America today, and publicly before the entire world, the state of virginity-- both the symbology and the reality-- is a state of youth to be ashamed of and shunned as a state of ignorance, insufficiency, and inexperience; as if a skilled job position was being sought by someone under-qualified. While yesterday’s young women were claiming “the rights to their own bodies” from the control of men (read; legislation), today our young girls seem to be driven to shamelessly market those liberated bodies on the auction block in the effort to find anybody who will cure their ailment of youth. The statement of elderly-sister encouragement to the unusually beautiful youth (often covered half in jest but said far more in envy) is;
“If you got it, flaunt it!”
And like trying to identify the actual difference between a Cougar and a Sex Kitten; the young “got it” by the mere fact that they are young. So they flaunt it as encouraged by the experienced, who should know if it is actually hazardous or not. Obviously by their encouragement; it’s not.
But hedonistic self-flaunting of young women’s bodies is nothing new in the world. It’s only new in the American “norm” as no longer abominable, where not long ago it was already done, but in back rooms of skanky clubs, socially shunned as evil in the mainstream of life. No, today there is something new going on. Something shocking. Today our CHRISTIAN virgins are flaunting their very virginity as a new titillating element of their intoxicating beauty that they are willing to display on the auction block of the world. They are “one-upping” the pagan competition! And in so doing are being labeled by the secular world itself as abominable… yet smilingly acceptable as “personal expression” held as a sacred virtue of female liberation from oppression of men who cry; THAT’S ABOMINABLE!
It does not please me to walk through with you the "five foolish virgin" examples I have selected for my next Post, but you and your kids see far worse than what I will show, everyday on; billboards, Movies, TV adds between news segments and cartoons, and at half-time in the Sunday game-- and it doesn’t bother you enough to even turn away, so don’t go all spiritual on me now and miss the important point of identifying where we really are on the roadmap to destruction. I go this questionable distance into the darkness on my public Blog because one of my most often-hit Posts is found by internet search regarding the question; “Is Selena Gomez a Christian?” American young virgins of God are asking. That means they actually don’t know, and are leaning in her same direction hoping it’s OK.
And nobody, including their parents, is telling them it’s not, in a way that actually makes sense.
You can both use the wakeup call.
