PART 3 HISTORY OF THE MINISTRY PATRIARCHY: #2 RE PATRIARCHAL OVERREACH

This in an intentionally “Biblically grounded” proven over the test of time, timely article that avoids secular “women’s lib” framing and instead examines respect for ALL kinds of men, and women, but defines the word ‘patriarch” (wise, mostly stable, team, family, ministry, busines anchor disposition,usually great for counsel, stability and a stable provider, any race, status or belief set). However, the words Levitical Patriarch (coined by Sister Taveau after repeatedly discovering this in the WELP usually prophetic doctrinal “relationship effecting ” fruit.. is yet another.

Hence we calmly address the term ” patriarchal overreach” within the biblical, historical, and spiritual context, focusing on Jesus, Paul, and the early Church, while addressing big concerns about overreaching LP in many WELP, cessationists, fundamentalists, the shepherding movementmย  and more..

LP is found in theirย  LM appointed strict Levitical Matriarchs who are usually their similar dominating sharp shooters to far off sly ‘divine’ (deep inner psychic “Holy Spirit” scan) then target, report back, pray against, This is WHY I am not affiliated with the impure these. Not I John 1:7 Healthy)

# 2 re Patriarchal Overreach: When Authority Exceeds Christ’s Example

“The kings of the Gentiles exercise lordship over them… But it shall not be so among you: but he that is greatest among you, let him be as the younger; and he that is chief, as he that doth serve.โ€

Taveau asks this FIRST QUESTION to Chat GPT AI:

ย Q.ย  What Is True Biblical Authority?

Chat GPT AI answers:

Biblical authority is:

  • Relational โ€“ rooted in covenant, not control.

  • Servant-hearted โ€“ modeled after Jesus, who washed feet (John 13:14โ€“15).

  • Gift-based โ€“ built on spiritual gifting, calling, and fruit (1 Corinthians 12).

  • Mutual โ€“ all believers are submitted to Christ and one another (Ephesians 5:21).

  • Accountable โ€“ no one is above correction, male or female.

QUESTION TWO:

Taveau Asks:

What Should We Do Now About Following, also Delegating, Supporting, Abiding Under, Serving, Complying with presentedย  Christian Ministry “Authority””

Chat GPT AI responds:

Itโ€™s time to return to the First Church modelโ€”not replicate modern power structures or culture wars. We must:

  • Discern doctrine by fruit and scripture, not titles or social media campaigns.

  • Affirm women and men, all colors and sizes and types.. in ministry based on the Spirit’s call and biblical fruit.

  • Reject public shaming, name-calling, and ministry gossipโ€”whether aimed at prosperity preachers, women, or Spirit-led believers. Or the local fellow pastor, prophet or woman leader, wonder working or not!

  • POINT: TD teaches ministers regarding;ย  Motives, Mindsets, Mind Fields, Methodologies andย  Use of Tone”

  • Rebuild unity across the body, not by enforcing sameness, but by welcoming diverse callings under Christโ€™s Lordship.

Let us honor Jesusโ€”not a tradition of menโ€”as the true head of the Church.

QUESTION THREE

Taveau asks Chat GPTย Apply all of this to the local Christian also diverse, over all abiding Community**
**”which by now,
ought be office well trained in Paulineย  Ephesians 4 Basic Community Insight

Chat GPT answers:
In todayโ€™s Christian landscape, a troubling pattern is emerging in some doctrinally conservative circles, particularly among those holding to cessationist views: an authoritarian form of patriarchy that distorts both Christian Bible developing manhood and servant leadership. It denies correction, self introspection and it avoids relation with the Most High God and respects just a few ‘pre qualifying’ types of similar human persons, mostly the same race, social status and beliefs regarding Book of Acts, Holy Spirit,ย  This also applies to the many suspicious foes of this more diverse EORR Cross Body Movement, the ‘turf protectors’ which I have submitted to in James 3;17 abiding perpetual Ephesians 5:21 “mutual submission fruit” but still got targeted, by their LP fine men and the LM Police solemn women.

I explained my happy childhood, my Christian sr pastor father and my desire to all men the lead, before, So I do not have to share that again


I am addressing. I will define it as I view it:
1. A lone stranger visits or tries to attend a mostly LP shepherding Governing Ministry Patrairchal Movement and is immediately ‘far off accuser targeted” based on the following 1. Looks, 2. Age 3 Type, 4. Race, 5 ,Gender, 6. Size and I would use this word to relate to the Office Seers , Apostles, Prophets, NAR movement: 7 Vibe, Energy”as that is all it takes to a LP sage ministry and demonic dark spirit to “manifest” to rise up and start to agress. I have witnessed this since God first began to send me to study the Charismatic, long worship’, ‘prophetic, now celebrity affected yetย  moralย  movements.’

It is a “sin” to want to use Jesus Christ safe name to advertise YOUR “Christian ministry” or conference or group but then when one and all arrive YOU (they ) only want their own fellowship color, preferred age, look, movement style” for all those that do “fit” the required “appearance” are biased against, racially profiled and often using occult targeted. I amย  making a senior long term ministry overseer sr office “complaint” “*using false religions, evil eye, which is witchcraft, and respecter of persons spirit” “divining” and “age, gender, looks, big biased” and anti I John 1:7 in being that. All of this is similar to “Exodus 20:3 ‘Thou shalt not use the name of the Lord thy God in vain. I will not hold them guiltless, for using My Name in vain.”

Secondly, this could be a mistaken use of “failing to discern the body of Christ correctly” (brings down t 2 curses) But the accusing many (accusing false witness as in “NO RESPECT otherwise they would RELATE in Eph 1:6, 5:21, 4) and I John 1:7…in this unhealthy fashion is rampant..at least in the monied deep south and southwest. and nearly everywhere. And in South Africa, as I know for a fact. (as it’s mostly all Colonial). This openly reveals it’s “false” authoritarian and most abidingย  Levitical Patriarchal “Top Down Church” (non servant elders as I have defined and equipped before) to governย  control.

Third: Eli and the Good Ole Boys Club “Boys will be boys’ in Christian Ministry

TD Says to the Devout Reader: Google search ( as I have written on this repeatedly for 12 years)
I SAMUEL 1- 3 Defiling, abusing, using, many Christian women (See Eli and both sons in I Samuel 1 who were all the LP Levitical Patriarchs, who also exemplify the worst case Ministry Patriarchy: The use of human bodies, leader women, also now men, children, and money)

This, to me, makes me leary of (non family feel, mostly who are the remnant) charismatics, And while all Christian ministries may or may not do it, it specifically aggresses,ย  and top down witch watches , accuses me, without one iota of respectful relationship..

Hence I know a powerful lot, because as a seer apostolic prophet who is sent to study the Body of Christ in leadership, since 1976, before these movements manifested to be so big, and have much influence and celebrity, I can note when I am being dark scanned ..as my “defense” given by God “the leader discernment of spirits” but I then am quickened to understand (perceive, discern) that I am being “defiled, monitored ,targeted” (as they evidently do this too many way long before I got there) and so must need me to know about this and to Biblically correct, reprove and to warn the mostly witch watching, turf guarding totalitarian Western European Levitical Patriarchal, L Matriarchal enormous cult like accusing biased “whore spying” subcultures.

 

And I will continue this Big Boss Address Article Later

what follows isย  a repeat from part 1 or 2.:

Outline and Understanding

Jesus and Paul: Models of Servant Leadership

1. First Church Doctrine on Authority and Ministry

A. Jesusโ€™ Model of Authority

  • Matthew 20:25โ€“28 (KJV): Jesus warns against lording authority over others. He says, โ€œBut it shall not be so among you: but whosoever will be great among you, let him be your minister.โ€

  • Jesus models servant authority, never positional or domineering ruleโ€”even as the Son of God.

B. Paul and Apostolic Leadership

  • Ephesians 4:11โ€“13 (KJV): Apostles, prophets, evangelists, pastors, teachers are gifts for the maturing of the saintsโ€”not for control, but equipping.

  • 1 Thessalonians 2:7: Paul says he was โ€œgentle among you, as a nurse cherisheth her children.โ€ His style is relational, gentle, and encouraging.

Big Q: Was Jesus a Patriarch? A First Church Look at Spiritual Authority and Gender


Paul I Corinthians 14:10

“There are many voices in the world and each one has significance”

 

But, which voice is TRUE?


TAVEAU’Sย  PRO PEOPLE NOTE:
Iย  respect the Office Human and am PRO them in general and in life, but NOT Accusation based on False, Misuse of apostolic First Church Leader Bible

Many current Christian voicesโ€”some from the normal evangelical LP (mostly feisty, vocal Onlineย  Cessationists, (and I am not accusing them or any) but noting false teaching, false authority, …also in many tongue talking even many by the way pentecostal style groups…also several ministry groups who are fundamentalist, NAR ,apostles in the Gates of the City (mostly) and/or the many in the various forms of the Christianย  shepherding movements subculture, deep hard core, non diverse Christ backgroundsโ€” (though many very intentioned) appear to be untrained and not respectful to all ..These are the main viewsย  based upon knowledge, in the Bible, experience after close to 50 years visiting tribes noting repeated use of (over stepping use) of sr office Levitical patriarchal authority structures… as a supposed biblical standard.

But before we assume these traditions reflect Godโ€™s order, we must ask: Was Jesus a patriarch? Was Paul promoting male dominance? And what did the First Church actually practice?

Letโ€™s consider the Bible only, with respect for men, women, and Godโ€™s original intentโ€”apart from secular feminism or culture wars.

1. Was Jesus a Patriarch?

No. Jesus did not model the cultural patriarchy of His timeโ€”He subverted it.

In first-century Jewish and Roman culture, women were often seen as second-class, uneducated, excluded from testimony in court, barred from temple courts, and viewed as property in some legal settings.

Yet Jesus:

  • Spoke directly to women in public (John 4 โ€“ the Samaritan woman, which shocked even His disciples).

  • Taught women as disciples (Luke 10:38โ€“42 โ€“ Mary at His feet).

  • Defended women against religious judgment (John 8:1โ€“11 โ€“ the woman caught in adultery).

  • Revealed Himself first to women at the Resurrection (John 20:17), giving them apostolic-level commission: โ€œGo to my brethrenโ€ฆโ€.

  • Allowed women to financially support His ministry (Luke 8:1โ€“3).

These actions broke deep patriarchal taboos. Jesus honored women as full image-bearers of God and spiritual equals under the Kingdom (Galatians 3:28 KJV). He never taught that men had universal spiritual authority over women.

Jesus challenged male dominance, religious control, and the abuse of spiritual authority โ€” whether over men or women. He modeled servant leadership, not hierarchy for hierarchyโ€™s sake (Mark 10:42โ€“45 KJV).

2. Was Paul a Patriarch?

Letโ€™s separate Paul the Apostle from Saul the Pharisee.

When Paul Was Saul:

  • Saul was deeply embedded in patriarchal religious culture (Philippians 3:5โ€“6).

  • He persecuted the early Church (Acts 8:3), which included many Spirit-filled women (Acts 2:17).

  • His zeal was legalistic, top-down, and male-dominant.

After Paul Met Christ:

Everything changed.

  • He recognized the Spirit being poured out on โ€œsons and daughtersโ€ (Acts 2:17).

  • He affirmed women leaders like Priscilla, Junia (called an apostle in Romans 16:7), Phoebe (a deacon), and many others.

  • He taught mutual submission (Ephesians 5:21), not male domination.

  • He declared that in Christ there is no male nor female (Galatians 3:28), in terms of worth, calling, or inheritance.

But what about 1 Timothy 2:12 and women being silent?ย  (see part 1 and 2 of this series for the history of how Christian church evolution into to hierarchy, the orthodoxy, the patriarchy changed The Christian Woman Thing. AND TD notes: this was the identical time of the Rev 3 Laodicean Church Time Period (“o my”)

Example:

That letter addresses a local church in Ephesus, filled with pagan Diana/Artemis worship, female-dominant cults, and doctrinal chaos. Paul used temporary pastoral correction, not a universal decree. Paul also never silenced Philipโ€™s four prophetic daughters (Acts 21:9), or Priscilla, or others.

Paul, like Jesus, was not a patriarch in the authoritarian sense. He yielded to the Holy Spiritโ€™s gifting, regardless of gender. He affirmed the body of Christ as a spiritual organism, not a rigid chain of command.

Will park my pen here for now. Will return later and ad more..maybe completely revise it all around!
