The Voice of Jezebel

"But I have this against you,

that you tolerate that woman Jezebel..."

~ Revelation 2:20

"'Therefore go out from their midst,

and be separate from them', says the Lord,

'and touch no unclean thing;'"

~ 2 Corinthians 6:17

Through the whole New Testament the call is to separation, to peculiarity, to a clear line of demarcation between the Church and the world. I fear that the voice of Jezebel is yet tolerated, and that the children of God are being seduced.

Things at which our fathers shuddered are today being introduced as necessary to the social and financial success of the Church. In the name of God and humanity, let us keep the line clear and sharp, and know on which side we stand.

Any doctrine, any philosophy, that makes it easy to sin, whether by excusing it, minimizing its enormity, or denying its existence is of hell, and not merely are those held guilty who teach the doctrine and practice the sin, but that church also which is not clear and outspoken in its protests against sin. The church that suffers the woman is guilty.
