First Love And love consists in this: not that we loved God, but that He loved us and sent His Son as the propitiation for our sins...We love because He first loved us. (1John 4:10,19) For while we were still weak, at the right time Christ died for the ungodly. For one will scarcely die for a righteous person—though perhaps for a good person one would dare even to die— but God shows his love for us in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us. (Romans 5:6-8) Abide in me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit by itself, unless it abides in the vine, neither can you, unless you abide in me. I am the vine; you are the branches. Whoever abides in me and I in him, he it is that bears much fruit, for apart from me you can do nothing.

You may have heard it said, "Jesus is perfect theology." This statement is 100% true since Jesus is the TRUTH! Jesus reveals the nature character and will of God. Any view of God outside of Jesus is a view through the veil of the law of Moses and the old covenant. If you had known me, you would have known my Father also. From now on you do know him and have seen him.” Philip said to him, “Lord, show us the Father, and it is enough for us.” Jesus said to him, “Have I been with you so long, and you still do not know me, Philip? Whoever has seen me has seen the Father. (John 14:7-10) ​ He is the radiance of the Glory of God and the exact imprint of His nature. (Hebrews 1:3) Then I said, ‘Behold, I have come to do your will, O God, as it is written of me in the scroll of the book.’” (Hebrews 10:7) To visit Resurrection Ranch go to the link below https://www.rezranch.com To give go to https://www.rezranch.com/give

The fear of the Lord is NOT the same as human fear. The fear of the Lord is awe, reverence and faith in God! The fear of the Lord is to trust in His faithfulness and steadfast love! For the Lord has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power, love and a sound mind. (2 Timothy 1:7) There is no fear in love, but perfect love casts out fear. For fear has to do with punishment, and whoever fears has not been perfected in love. (1John 4:18) Do not be deceived, my beloved brothers. Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of lights, with whom there is no variation or shadow due to change. (James 1:16-17) And the Spirit of the LORD shall rest upon him, the Spirit of wisdom and understanding, the Spirit of counsel and might, the Spirit of knowledge and the fear of the LORD. And his delight shall be in the fear of the LORD. (Isaiah 11:2-3) You will not fear the terror of the night, nor the arrow that flies by day, nor the pestilence that stalks in darkness, nor the destruction that wastes at noonday. (Psalm 91:5-6) “but my righteous one shall live by faith,and if he shrinks back, my soul has no pleasure in him.” But we are not of those who shrink back and are destroyed, but of those who have faith and preserve their souls. (Hebrews 10:38-39) His pleasure is not in the strength of the horse, nor his delight in the legs of the warrior; the Lord delights in those who fear him,who put their hope in his unfailing love.

Of Course, Women can teach and Preach! God is not a respecter of persons and will speak through any yielded vessel. In the Lord there is neither male nor female. This does not mean that biological sexes cease to exist in the body of christ. This means that for both men and women, we have died and Christ now lives in us. The Holy Spirit will speak truth through any yielded vessel. The culture and times that Jesus came into were very oppressive to women. He flowed upstream by first revealing himself publicly as the messiah to the woman at the well. She then went into her town and preached the gospel and told her town about Jesus. It is a good thing she was not silent among the congregation or church (eklesia) of people. When Jesus rose from the dead he first appeared to you guessed it, women. They then went and shared the good news with the men. Jesus’ ministry was also funded by women. Aquilla AND Priscilla taught Appolos. We can go on and on about the amazing women used by God as teachers, preachers and leaders in the Bible. We could go on about the amazing women throughout church history who have partnered with God to preach and teach the gospel. You see part of the curse the world came under when Adam and Eve fell is that women came under the domination of men. Jesus reversed this curse and takes us into the body of Christ. In the body of Christ, there is only one head and that is Jesus. There is one body, one lord, one Spirt, one Father and so on. The devil knows the Bible better than most of us and will twist it to oppress men and women to silence us and bring us under his domination. He has tricked many into ignoring all of the women teachers, preachers and leaders in the Bible and twisted a few verses and seduced men through their own weaknesses to oppress women in an attempt to silence half of the body of Christ. You cannot throw out the whole of scripture and Jesus' relationship with women to validate the misinterpretations and mistranslations of only a few verses and create a
