“Keeping The Woman In Her Place”

Dear men in general and Black men in particular, I have a message for you and it simply says you have done a poor job of keeping ‘the woman’ in her place. For too long the man has not done his job correctly in keeping ‘the woman’ in her place.

The reason is very simple(in two parts), 1) we don’t know and understand ‘the woman’ and 2) we really don’t know and understand who we’re supposed to be as ‘the man’. We have been lied to for too long. The madness must stop. We have caused too much damage. The generation of children to come is in grave danger and we have been guilty for too long. Whether you agree with me or not we are held directly responsible for what has been happening to our society in general and to our women and children in particular. In major part it is because we have not kept ‘the woman’ in her place.

The Woman

Woman was not made from man’s head to be over him;
Nor was she made from his feet to be stepped on by him;
Woman was made from man’s side to be equal to him,
From under his arm to be served and protected by him, and
From near his heart to be loved and respected by him

‘The man’ could do a better job of keeping ‘the woman’ in her place if only he knew ‘his place’.

Man was made first to serve as the ‘provider’. This has nothing to do with ‘the only one to have a job or in the case of “both working” the one that is making the most money. Provider(pro=before & video vi-de-o=picture/vision) is the one that is able to see it before hand. In relationship to ‘the woman’ that vision is shared and she, with ‘the man’s support gives life to the vision. Some men allow ‘the woman’ to be over them and some men keep ‘the woman’ under their feet, neither one is good. ‘The man’ must know how to keep the woman in her place.

One of the tragic results of the man not keeping ‘the woman’ in her place is that 70% of all Black babies are born without fathers being there; 53% for Hispanic women, and 25% for White women. Another tragic result: as we know the majority of men in prison in America are black men between the ages of 19-35. 90% of black people being murdered are black men between the ages of 19-35 being murdered by black men between the ages of 19-35. For those black men who are making the black babies and not being there to support the beautiful and powerful black women who are opening their ‘bodies and souls’ to receive the ‘powerful seed’ from the brothers are, themselves, between the ages of 19-35. This problem could have been avoided if we would have, years ago, known how to keep ‘the woman’ in here place. Black men, in particular, it is not too late to know how to keep ‘the woman’ in her place.

Every woman is a mother even if she has no children and of course every mother is a woman. The word mother is a-kind to the word metropolis. From Late Latin metropolis= mother-city, from Greek meter or metr=mother + polis=city. Please note the following concerning metropolis(mother city):
• A major city, especially the chief city of a country or region.
• A city regarded as the center of a specific activity(great culture).
• A city that gives direction and oversight to other governments.
• A power city that gives personality and substance to the smaller city.
• A city that ‘provides’ all of the needs of the smaller cities/regions ‘according to her riches in glory’ in Christ Jesus(His real name/or non English name is, by the way, YAHUSHUA MASHIA).

Perhaps the game of CHESS can and will give enlightenment to your/our quest for understanding this effort.

The Queen is the most powerful piece in the game of chess. The queen is placed in the middle next to the king(please note that one is not a king without a queen and of course a queen is not a queen without a king…they make each other). The queen is most powerful when the board is open to her. Because of her long range and ability to move in more than one direction, the queen is well equipped to execute. The best way for the king to protect and preserve his kingdom(his home) is to keep ‘the queen’ in her place.

So then what is the place of ‘the woman’?
• Her place is one of equality with the man.
• Her place is one of power and authority.
• Her place is one of grace, mercy, and favor from the Lord.
• Her place is one where she can receive ‘the seed’ that the man gives her and in turn make something out of ‘the seed’. Remember men, whatever you give the woman she’s going to make something out of it. If you give her a corrupt seed she’s going to give you corrupt results. If you give her a stupid seed she’s going to give you stupid children(of whom she can still straighten out with your support). If you give her hell she’s going to act like a _ _ _ _ _ .
• Her place is one of honor and respect.

In ‘her place’ she holds the key to the blessing of ‘the man’.

In the book of I Peter(the Holy Bible=Holy Book) chapter 3, verse 7; “Husbands(the man), likewise, dwell with them with understanding, giving honor to the wife(the woman), as to the weaker vessel( not a week woman but as to…in other words be strong for her and protect this gentle and precious vessel that the Lord has placed in your life so that she can and will be strength for you when you are weak), as being heirs together of the grace of life, that your prayers may not be hindered(that your prayer will be answered).

Men in general, Black men in particular, if we learn how to keep ‘the woman’ in her place, our world in general and our immediate society in particular will be a better place for all to live. Then “the glory of the Lord shall be revealed and all flesh shall see it together”.

Men, know your place and stay in it.

I love you and you can’t do anything about it.
