Whores, Whoremongers, Husbands & Help Meets...

I had to share what the scripture says regarding the differences in whores, whoremongers, husbands & help meets, that we may recognize, bypass & not waste our time being led astray. It is written that, "For a lack of knowledge, my people perish..." Don't be deceived, enjoy...

"Say unto wisdom, Thou art my sister; and call understanding thy kinswoman: That they may keep thee from the strange woman, from the stranger which flattereth with her words. For at the window of my house I looked through my casement, And beheld among the simple ones, I discerned among the youths, a young man void of understanding, Passing through the street near her corner; and he went the way to her house, In the twilight, in the evening, in the black and dark night: And, behold, there met him a woman with the attire of an harlot, and subtil of heart. (She is loud and stubborn; her feet abide not in her house: Now is she without, now in the streets, and lieth in wait at every corner.) So she caught him, and kissed him, and with an impudent face said unto him, I have peace offerings with me; this day have I payed my vows. Therefore came I forth to meet thee, diligently to seek thy face, and I have found thee. I have decked my bed with coverings of tapestry, with carved works, with fine linen of Egypt. I have perfumed my bed with myrrh, aloes, and cinnamon. Come, let us take our fill of love until the morning: let us solace ourselves with loves. For the goodman is not at home, he is gone a long journey: He hath taken a bag of money with him, and will come home at the day appointed. With her much fair speech she caused him to yield, with the flattering of her lips she forced him. He goeth after her straightway, as an ox goeth to the slaughter, or as a fool to the correction of the stocks; Till a dart strike through his liver; as a bird hasteth to the snare, and knoweth not that it is for his life. Hearken unto me now therefore, O ye children, and attend to the words of my mouth. Let not thine heart decline to her ways, go not astray in her paths. For she hath cast down many wounded: yea, many strong men have been slain by her. Her house is the way to hell, going down to the chambers of death." - Proverbs 7:4-27 (KJV)

"For by means of a whorish woman a man is brought to a piece of bread: and the adulteress will hunt for the precious life." - Proverbs 6:26 (KJV)

"My son, give me thine heart, and let thine eyes observe my ways. For a whore is a deep ditch; and a strange woman is a narrow pit." - Proverbs 23:26-27 (KJV)

"Marriage is honourable in all, and the bed undefiled: but whoremongers and adulterers God will judge." - Hebrews 13:4 (KJV)

"Blessed are they that do his commandments, that they may have right to the tree of life, and may enter in through the gates into the city. For without are dogs, and sorcerers, and whoremongers, and murderers, and idolaters, and whosoever loveth and maketh a lie. I Jesus have sent mine angel to testify unto you these things in the churches. I am the root and the offspring of David, and the bright and morning star." - Revelation 22:14-16 (KJV)

"For this ye know, that no whoremonger, nor unclean person, nor covetous man, who is an idolater, hath any inheritance in the kingdom of Christ and of God." - Eph. 5:5 (KJV)

"But we know that the law is good, if a man use it lawfully; Knowing this, that the law is not made for a righteous man, but for the lawless and disobedient, for the ungodly and for sinners, for unholy and profane, for murderers of fathers and murderers of mothers, for manslayers, For whoremongers, for them that defile themselves with mankind, for menstealers, for liars, for perjured persons, and if there be any other thing that is contrary to sound doctrine;" - 1 Timothy 1:8-10 (KJV)

"But the fearful, and unbelieving, and the abominable, and murderers, and whoremongers, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all liars, shall have their part in the lake which burneth with fire and brimstone: which is the second death." - Revelation 21:8 (KJV)

Don't get it twisted, males & females alike can be whores. My brothers & sisters, beware the feeding of flirtation & flattery. For in most cases, it's just plain fake, and only to take advantage of the naive, and those with an open heart whom seek to be loved. Your token of wisdom to take away is this... "There is neither husband, nor helpmeet, but nothing but hell in a whore." - Erron R. Johnson

"These things have I spoken unto you, that ye should not be offended." - John 16:1 (KJV)

"And blessed is he, whosoever shall not be offended in me." - Luke 7:23 (KJV)


You know... This isn't an attack on anyone I've ever dated or have been iin a relationship with, neither boasting in any way, but I just want to thank God for making me who I am, and for all of the gifts & talents He's blessed me with. In this case, for being able to see a beautiful, strong, loving, virtuous woman for who she is, and everything He's created her to be. Needless to say, I've made mistakes in choosing, just as we all have, yet each time my eyes were opened wider, and I beheld a clearer picture of what that blessing is... A True, Blessed and Good Thing. (Proverbs 18:22)

Lust...

Levels above sympathy, empathy abides. The heart sheds tears when compassion is evoked; an emotion triggered by thoughts conceived in the mind.

It's simply the position taken from the perception of what lies before our eyes. Truly loving someone more than they love themselves is not non-existent, paradoxical, neither has it been abandoned among mankind.

For another to receive and understand that they're worth more than what can be touched, caressed, kissed and dismissed, though it's one of God's most precious gifts... namely being to give from themselves, of themselves to another, that which is more precious than the finest fruits on any vine, or well-aged wine ever designed, simply confounds me.

Not in such a way as I haven't a degree of comprehension pertaining to such, but that it troubles my spirit and soul, knowing that for temporary comfort of the temporal lobe, we repeatedly sacrifice our hearts upon the same altar of which they've been repeatedly broke... physical "intimacy." Look... "in to Me see" spiritually, Christ gave His life in exchange that we all may be made free

Jesus said, "I will never leave you, nor forsake you."... Loneliness is a trick in attempt to keep us bound by the enemy.

My Sisters...

Beautiful...

I dare not use that term loosely, simply to describe any part of your physicality,

for naturally, that's what you are; not only internally, but intrinsically... beautiful.

You haven't the slightest clue of what I see when I look at you... it's unimaginable.

You cannot fathom the passion I hold for you, which is the greatest love of all.

You're my sister... Without a shadow of a doubt, without second thought,

I'd risk my all, lay down my life, whatever it takes except to deny Christ for you,

For without Him, we have no reason to live, to learn, there'd be no love,

The skies above would be filled with dark clouds, nothing to care for, no reason to smile.

But you... I'm enraged when you're abused, misused, for only a fool would disrespect you,

It's both my privilege & pleasure as well to protect you, I cannot neglect you.

To shield you from harm, shelter you from storms, to take up arms and war for you,

the most precious gift God ever blessed man with... is you.

Truthfully, since the Garden of Eden many serpents have succeeded in deceiving you,

yet I wield the hoe that severs the heads of the whoremongers whom toy with you.

It takes all that I have within, and all Whom we have in heaven to retain my composure,

exposing is done by the Light of the world, yet I stand as a soldier.

Reserved... Well-trained, and fully equipped for combat, hand-to-hand, man-to-man,

to stand and completely obliterate any adversary leaving no chance for survival.

That's my primal instinct... To leave no rival, but to thrive, to be fruitful, and multiply,

to dominate, subdue and replenish, that your joy and peace shall remain.

You're my sister, and I love you.

It's in my heart that I keep that love contained.

"Many women have done wonderful things, but you’ve outclassed them all!”

Charm can mislead and beauty soon fades. The woman to be admired and praised

is the woman who lives in the Fear-of-God." - Proverbs 31:29-30 (MSG)

Don't Settle for Less...

"It's a funny thing about life; if you refuse to accept anything but the best, you very often get it." - Somerset Maugham

This is one of the main reasons that I'm still "comfortably" single... I REFUSE to settle for, or to enter into any relationships, be they business, romantic or otherwise, in which God doesn't lead the woman and I both to be united as one. He MUST be the foundation we build upon, and the sole authority in confirming our coming together. Despite ANY physical attraction or desire, the spiritual MUST FIRST be met THROUGH GOD. For the Word says that He will withhold nothing good from His children. Nevertheless, the devil also knows what appeals to our "senses." So he plans, plots and often succeeds in conspiring our fall into disappointment, disgust, depression and even denial, when we drop our guard and are left open, exposed and defenseless.

I'll be the first to admit that there have been numerous times that my fleshly desires, willful disobedience, impatience, and inherent ignorance to God's instructions have led me wrong; intimately intertwined with women that God delicately crafted, created and designed, yet He didn't intend for them to be mine. However, in my carnal mind, I chose to find a multiplicity of reasons to commit treason to my own very being; my patience & trust in God fleeting, honestly seeking true love, yet not in God's order, marriage before mating... See, my way was indecent.

Giving my all, sacrificing His peace, I found myself aching in pain; see sex was what kept us together... Relationships failed, reunited to no avail, unequally yoked, heartbroken again and again; hiding not behind leaves, yet still I felt ashamed... pleasing each other and displeasing God, fornicating, finding myself repenting time after time, forgive us Lord... for naked we've lain.

For this cause, I relentlessly minister to both the married and the single. I practice what I preach, that we may all see with clarity the preordained ONE God has set forth, as a husband or help meet. There's no need we remain continually deceived by the enemy's need, keeping us bound by feeding our flesh; when we're Spirit-led, God honors the marriage bed... If not, we settle for less than God's best.

"Wait and hope for and expect the Lord; be brave and of good courage and let your heart be stout and enduring. Yes, wait for and hope for and expect the Lord." - Psalm 27:14 (AMP)

God's Will Vs. Our Wants (2)

In this life, we tend to make major decisions, change and/or moves prior to receiving clarity form God. We ask questions, and/or pray for instructions and revelations, yet somehow fail to receive them, often because God's answers don't "sound like" what WE WANT to hear, or "look like" WE WANT them to look. Therefore, we make the same mistakes repeatedly. Though we may change the methods in actions we take, or decisions made, we still apply the SAME thought process, which led us to hurt and confusion in times past. God knows the desires of our hearts, yet there's a method in receiving them "1) FRET NOT.. 2) TRUST IN THE LORD and 3) DO GOOD... 4) DELIGHT YOURSELF ALSO IN THE LORD... 5) COMMIT YOUR WAY TO THE LORD AND ALSO 6) TRUST IN HIM (again)... 7) REST IN THE LORD... 8) WAIT PATIENTLY FOR HIM..." (See Psalms 37) Perhaps it's no coincidence we've been given those 8 criteria at minimum, with the number 8 also the number of completion... (Just a thought) Nevertheless and heretofore, it is written, “My thoughts are nothing like your thoughts,” says the Lord. “And my ways are far beyond anything you could imagine. For just as the heavens are higher than the earth, so my ways are higher than your ways and my thoughts higher than your thoughts." - Isaiah 55:8-9 (NLT) We rarely consider the depth of God giving us the desires of our hearts, and they NOT being the desires of our flesh. ***Message*** Nor do we consider that God will ALWAYS give us what we need instead of what we want.

The Apostle Paul once penned, "Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who hath blessed us with all spiritual blessings in heavenly places in Christ:" - (Eph. 3:1) From this, my understanding is that God's blessings are NOT connected to our carnality, but are SENT to us by His Spirit. Simply put, our natural thinking and logic will never decipher (figure out) God's SPECIFIC plans for us. Yet we can rest assured that they WILL line up in accordance and agreement to His Word, His way, as well as compliment the calling, purpose AND vision He's placed on our lives, and in our hearts. That's where faith comes in... We just have to trust God... and let go; even when it "looks" right. In this manner, I'm speaking from instruction and experience... Real family and friends love you enough to share the truth with you; no matter how hurtful it may "feel" sometimes. With matters that are of utmost importance, (i.e. faith, family, hope and love,) the truth can often be devastating or mind blowing. Sometimes, no answer directs us to the right answer. And ultimately, the truth can sometimes cost our lives, while simultaneously giving us new lives, full of love, joy and peace... Just ask Jesus. Before the pain came, He told us all, "You shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free."

Be blessed. - Erron R. Johnson

Imparting Wisdom: A Way That Leads To Death

"A wise woman builds her home, but a foolish woman tears it down with her own hands.
Those who follow the right path fear the Lord; those who take the wrong path despise him.
A fool’s proud talk becomes a rod that beats him, but the words of the wise keep them safe.
Without oxen a stable stays clean, but you need a strong ox for a large harvest.
An honest witness does not lie; a false witness breathes lies.
A mocker seeks wisdom and never finds it, but knowledge comes easily to those with understanding.
Stay away from fools, for you won’t find knowledge on their lips.
The prudent understand where they are going, but fools deceive themselves.
Fools make fun of guilt, but the godly acknowledge it and seek reconciliation.
Each heart knows its own bitterness, and no one else can fully share its joy.
The house of the wicked will be destroyed, but the tent of the godly will flourish.
There is a path before each person that seems right, but it ends in death.
Laughter can conceal a heavy heart, but when the laughter ends, the grief remains.
Backsliders get what they deserve; good people receive their reward.
Only simpletons believe everything they’re told! The prudent carefully consider their steps.
The wise are cautious and avoid danger; fools plunge ahead with reckless confidence.
Short-tempered people do foolish things, and schemers are hated.
Simpletons are clothed with foolishness, but the prudent are crowned with knowledge.
Evil people will bow before good people; the wicked will bow at the gates of the godly.
The poor are despised even by their neighbors, while the rich have many “friends.”
It is a sin to belittle one’s neighbor; blessed are those who help the poor.
If you plan to do evil, you will be lost; if you plan to do good, you will receive unfailing love and faithfulness.
Work brings profit, but mere talk leads to poverty!
Wealth is a crown for the wise; the effort of fools yields only foolishness.
A truthful witness saves lives, but a false witness is a traitor.
Those who fear the Lord are secure; he will be a refuge for their children.
Fear of the Lord is a life-giving fountain; it offers escape from the snares of death.
A growing population is a king’s glory; a prince without subjects has nothing.
People with understanding control their anger; a hot temper shows great foolishness.
A peaceful heart leads to a healthy body; jealousy is like cancer in the bones.
Those who oppress the poor insult their Maker, but helping the poor honors him.
The wicked are crushed by disaster, but the godly have a refuge when they die.
Wisdom is enshrined in an understanding heart; wisdom is not found among fools.
Godliness makes a nation great, but sin is a disgrace to any people.
A king rejoices in wise servants but is angry with those who disgrace him."

- Proverbs 14 (NLT)

A Quick Lesson In Patience & Virtue...

"For this very reason, adding your diligence [to the divine promises], employ every effort in exercising your faith to develop virtue (excellence, resolution, Christian energy), and in [exercising] virtue [develop] knowledge (intelligence), And in [exercising] knowledge [develop] self-control, and in [exercising] self-control [develop] steadfastness (patience, endurance), and in [exercising] steadfastness [develop] godliness (piety), And in [exercising] godliness [develop] brotherly affection, and in [exercising] brotherly affection [develop] Christian love. For as these qualities are yours and increasingly abound in you, they will keep [you] from being idle or unfruitful unto the [full personal] knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ (the Messiah, the Anointed One). For whoever lacks these qualities is blind, [spiritually] shortsighted, seeing only what is near to him, and has become oblivious [to the fact] that he was cleansed from his old sins. Because of this, brethren, be all the more solicitous and eager to make sure (to ratify, to strengthen, to make steadfast) your calling and election; for if you do this, you will never stumble or fall. Thus there will be richly and abundantly provided for you entry into the eternal kingdom of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. So I intend always to remind you about these things, although indeed you know them and are firm in the truth that [you] now [hold]." - 2 Peter 1:5-12 (NLT)

Virtue: (noun) 1. moral excellence; goodness; righteousness.
2. conformity of one's life and conduct to moral and ethical principles; uprightness; rectitude.
3. chastity; virginity: (ex.) to lose one's virtue.
4. a particular moral excellence. (Compare cardinal virtues, natural virtue, theological virtue.)
5. a good or admirable quality or property: (ex.) the virtue of knowing one's weaknesses.
6. effective force; power or potency: (ex.) a charm with the virtue of removing warts.
7. virtues, an order of angels.

We've often heard the phrase, "patience is a virtue." However, it seems that we've adopted it insinuating that it's some sort of "divine" gift. Based on the above definition of "virtue," keywords being, "moral excellence and CONFORMITY of one's life and conduct to MORAL and ETHICAL principles," I beg to differ. And I suggest that unlike faith, (which it's written, "To every man there is given "a measure" of faith.") that patience, being a virtue is NOT a gift, but a choice. Our morals and ethics are based on our personal beliefs concerning various matters. We oftentimes tend to ask God for patience, or to strengthen our patience, yet THE WORD INSTRUCTS US THAT WE ARE TO ADD VIRTUE... PATIENCE (and more) TO OUR FAITH, which we've been freely given, rather gifted of by God.... Simply put, patience is a choice. And it pays greatly to be patient with God.
