Under Hebrew culture a woman would be in an arrangement for marriage. Her father would have made a contractual agreement with another father who wanted his son to marry his daughter. They would negotiate, arrange and plan a wedding. Perhaps the son had never seen the face of the daughter.
The night of the wedding would be so important to her and her mother as they made all the preparations. Central to that would be her attire and her wedding night dress. The fathers would want children from this arrangement.
She would have the job of making herself alluring, sexually to her new husband. She had seen him on many occasions but had never spoken to him, socially and he had never seen her face. They were strangers in the night.
This would be the night of all nights and this night could determine the rest of the marriage. He would be introduced to his new wife and she would be beautiful, sexually alluring, charming and ready for a night of passion.
This marriage is foreign to the the western world under the influence of rules of courtship in medieval Europe. There is romance in the relationships and approval of both partners who decide for themselves who and when to marry. This become a great departure from Biblical marriage and the Hebrew concept of contractual covenants.
This departure from the Hebrew concept has a massive effect on religious and theological foundations. There is an ongoing process of protestation since this time and it is as going from a dark age to a new age of enlightenment. It is the days we live in and soon we will enter a new era of post enlightenment though many think we are already in a post modern world. I don’t believe we have yet seen decadence. We are entering a new age of barbarism and lawlessness.
Where is the Church of God in this? When I look at the wife of the General Overseer I think she is making herself attractive, sexually! Ouch! I will get feedback for that!
Does her husband tell her to dress sexually alluring for Church events. I am certain he hasn’t. If he is a good COG bishop he harbors secret thoughts against the way she dresses. At least I HOPE so. She dresses like the world dictates and we are well acquainted with that provocative dictation.
No one preaches against this anymore. We are told to come out of the world not to copy the world! Why have women in the COG started dressing in the GO wife’s fashion because the GO and the bishops of the church have stopped preaching this.
When the GO starts preaching this under a Holy Spirit anointing you will see a different wife. That change has to come! It starts at the top and trickles down.
