I don’t know where to throw this in, but in modern lingo it’s “beta” that is used as the opposite of “alpha”. Not “omega”. Just saying. Carry on!

yes, that's true. Maybe it's a German thing. We know Bonhoeffer and things like that.

Frienduff, normally when we accuse seomone of something... we deliver proof. But this thread is about women, and Rick doesn't seem to fall in that category. So, can we drop the issue?

Yep its an applorange , not to be confused with an orange apple .   We gotta be on guard big .      No one wants the mix of man indoctrinating churches .

OH let the peoples just desire the Word and words of GOD , from which our minds are created and refreshed anew in Christ .

Hi community,

in another thread, a poster seemed to have a problem with alpha females at church.

But when we read Gal 3:28 about the Kingdom of God...

... we find out that, in the kingdom of God, women are like men. According to my own interpretation.

So some alpha females at work is what we should expect when we see there are alpha males also. Wouldn't you think so?

I feel even tempted to think alpha women yes please. Since they do the work.

We need people who fortify the weak, strengthen the family unit, edify the newbies in faith, settle conflicts, feed the hungry in a spiritual sense, edify the fellowship between believers, go after the lost and much more.

Men can't do that alone.
 

Please note I'm not talking about women's role in wedlock. This post is solely about their role at church/within the kingdom of God.

Regards,

Thomas

Each of us is fearfully and wonderfully made in His likeness. We each have our own thumbprint that is a one of a kind stamp from God. I imagine it takes the sea of humanity before the throne of God to display His multi facit attributes. God made and used Deborah and he made and used Ester for such a time as this. We probably are using ourself or our own comfort zone as a measuring rod when we start thinking we should tell people man or women who they should be like. He takes us just as we are and he can use our rough edges, our our polished sides as he does his perfect works in the body of Christ.

At the same time it is probably not good to let any strong person practice domination, intimidation, manipulation or control in the church. So we probably need to stand up in truth and love, pray alot and practice patient endurance. while strong personalities are developing fruit of the spirit and fighting their flesh.

My little dog is an alpha female.  The breeder sent a letter with her telling how she always ate fast and then shoved the other puppies out of their dishes so she could eat theirs as well.  I was told to take her through puppy training and obedience so I could become her alpha.  I learned how to be alpha by going through AKC dog training.  lol.

    • You are coming up higher in this season – above the assignments of character assassination and verbal arrows sent to manage you, contain you, and derail your purpose. Where you have had your dreams and sleep robbed, as well as your peace and clarity robbed – leaving you feeling foggy, confused, and heavy – God is, right now, bringing freedom back -- now you will clearly see the smoke and mirrors that were set to distract you and you will disengage.

      Right now God is declaring a "no access zone" around you, and your enemies will no longer have any entry point into your life. Oil is being poured over you to restore the years that the locust ate and give you back your passion. This is where you will feel a fresh roar begin to erupt from your inner being, and a call to leave the trenches behind and begin your odyssey in your Christ calling moving you to bear fruit that remains as you minister to and disciple others into their Christ identity.

      This is where you leave the trenches and scale the mountain to fight from a different place, from victory, from peace, and from rest. Now watch as God leads you up higher above all the noise, above all the chaos, and shows you where you have been seated all along with Him in heavenly places where you are UNTOUCHABLE. This is where you leave the soul fight, and the mind battle, and learn to fight differently.

      You will know how to live like an eagle and lead others to the same place of safety and protection that God led you to, which broke you out of the silent prison you were in. Put your war boots on and get ready to fight back! Refuse to lay down -- get out of bed and rebuke what is coming at you. Remember where you are seated and live from that place.

      Acts 1:8 - “But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you, and you will be my witnesses … to the end of the earth.”

    • George Whitten, the visionary behind Worthy Ministries and Worthy News, explores the timing of the Simchat Torah War in Israel. Is this a water-breaking moment? Does the timing of the conflict on October 7 with Hamas signify something more significant on the horizon?

    • Understanding the Enemy!

      I thought I write about the flip side of a topic, and how to recognize the attempts of the enemy to destroy lives and how you can walk in His victory!

      For the Apostle Paul taught us not to be ignorant of enemy's tactics and strategies.

      2 Corinthians 2:112  Lest Satan should get an advantage of us: for we are not ignorant of his devices. 

      So often, we can learn lessons by learning and playing "devil's" advocate.  When we read this passage,

      Mar 3:26  And if Satan rise up against himself, and be divided, he cannot stand, but hath an end. 
      Mar 3:27  No man can enter into a strong man's house, and spoil his goods, except he will first bind the strongman; and then he will spoil his house. 

      Here we learn a lesson that in order to plunder one's house you must first BIND up the strongman.  While we realize in this particular passage this is referring to God binding up the strongman (Satan) and this is how Satan's house is plundered.  But if you carefully analyze the enemy -- you realize that he uses the same tactics on us!  Your house cannot be plundered -- unless you are first bound.   And then Satan can plunder your house!

    • Daniel: Pictures of the Resurrection, Part 3

      Shalom everyone,

    • Abraham and Issac: Pictures of the Resurrection, Part 2
      Shalom everyone,

      As we continue this series the next obvious sign of the resurrection in the Old Testament is the sign of Isaac and Abraham.

      Gen 22:1  After these things God tested Abraham and said to him, "Abraham!" And he said, "Here I am."
      Gen 22:2  He said, "Take your son, your only son Isaac, whom you love, and go to the land of Moriah, and offer him there as a burnt offering on one of the mountains of which I shall tell you."

      So God "tests" Abraham and as a perfect picture of the coming sacrifice of God's only begotten Son (Yeshua - Jesus) God instructs Issac to go and sacrifice his son, Issac.  Where does he say to offer him?  On Moriah -- the exact location of the Temple Mount.
