Spiritual Fornication
by Brother Matthews

“Notwithstanding I have a few things against thee, because thou sufferest that woman Jezebel, which calleth herself a prophetess, to teach and to seduce my servants to commit fornication, and to eat things sacrificed unto idols.” Revelation 2:20 (KJV)

In Christ’s admonition to the church of Thyatira we discover that Jezebel is not just an old testament biblical figure but an archetype. The fornication she seduces men to commit is not physical, Christ’s warns the church of Pergamos against physical fornication when He mentions Balaam (Revelation 2:14 KJV) who tempted the men of Israel to sleep with foreign women who served strange gods. The fornication that Jezebel seduces men to commit is clearly spiritual.

“For true and righteous are his judgments: for he hath judged the great whore, which did corrupt the earth with her fornication, and hath avenged the blood of his servants at her hand.” Revelation 19:2 (KJV)

Jezebel calls herself a prophetess according to the bible but she is a false prophetess. Take note that she is not referred to as an adulterer but a fornicator. This is an important distinction, because spiritually speaking although she poses as the bride of Christ in truth He will have nothing to do with her. Since there never was a relationship between this false bride and Christ she is not an adulteress, but instead seduces others into spiritual fornication with her.

How does she seduce? Through false doctrine that is pleasing to the ear. She teaches that it is works which prove our salvation, and how much money we give to her in tithes. But the bible is clear on the criteria which God judges His people on, the intents of our hearts (Jeremiah 17:10 KJV). Like all whores she tempts men to exchange pure love for a counterfeit.

Materialistic, Discontented and Selfish

“And it came to pass, when Joram saw Jehu, that he said, Is it peace, Jehu? And he answered, What peace, so long as the whoredoms of thy mother Jezebel and her witchcrafts are so many?” 2 Kings 9:22 (KJV)

What motivates Jezebel? In a word, money, because although she may physically be a virgin spiritually speaking Jezebel is a whore. The question on Jezebel’s lips is always “What Have You Done for Me Lately?” Those of you old enough to remember this Janet Jackson song take note, lyrics such as these were written to turn young girls into Jezebels. Yes, Jezebel is not only an archetype of the end times church but is a spirit that possesses women as well.

Another song from that era with the same message was “Material Girl” by Madonna. Woe to the man married to a Jezebel for she will be a constant source of sorrow. It will be a life of perpetual pursuit of material wealth; but although her husband may spend his last penny to satisfy her, it will be to no avail. She is simply incapable of contentment.

“Therefore hear now this, thou that art given to pleasures, that dwellest carelessly, that sayest in thine heart, I am, and none else beside me; I shall not sit as a widow, neither shall I know the loss of children:” Isaiah 47:8 (KJV)

Maybe you’re just like my mother, She’s never satisfied (She’s never satisfied)

“When Doves Cry” – Prince

Another strong trait of a woman overcome with the Jezebel spirit is that she is never satisfied with what she has. Not only is she unthankful but she is also utterly selfish. She demands that she be catered to at all times. Ahab men may use money to try and control Jezebel, but are only nominally successful.

A Cold Hearted Liar

Jezebel is also a liar. Like a whore with a john she feigns love towards her many suitors and concern for them but in reality it is all a lie, simply a means to an end. She never offers her heart because truth be told it is like a stone, so instead she offers her body and worldly love.

Know ye not that your bodies are the members of Christ? shall I then take the members of Christ, and make them the members of an harlot? God forbid. What? know ye not that he which is joined to an harlot is one body? for two, saith he, shall be one flesh. But he that is joined unto the Lord is one spirit. 1 Corinthians 6:15-17 (KJV)

A harlot presents us with an incomplete counterfeit love based on physical attraction when true love is spiritual. A whore ministers to the flesh but Christ ministers to us body, soul and spirit.

Miserable, Clueless and Unrepentant

“How much she hath glorified herself, and lived deliciously, so much torment and sorrow give her: for she saith in her heart, I sit a queen, and am no widow, and shall see no sorrow.” Revelation 18:7 (KJV)

“Remember therefore from whence thou art fallen, and repent, and do the first works; or else I will come unto thee quickly, and will remove thy candlestick out of his place, except thou repent.” Revelation 2:5 (KJV)

She is wretched and miserable and will in fact work hard to make any man who dares to love her the same. As we can see in the above scripture and verses like Isaiah 47:8 (KJV) she is utterly clueless as to how much she is despised. As such she displays perhaps the most vile of her traits, that of being brazenly unrepentant of her many whoredoms. This is yet another false doctrine that the churches subtly promote; the idea that once we have repented of our sins when we became “saved” we never again have to repent. But the bible is clear that we must confess our sins and repent of them as often as we commit them.

Jezebel Revealed

“Because thou sayest, I am rich, and increased with goods, and have need of nothing; and knowest not that thou art wretched, and miserable, and poor, and blind, and naked:” Revelation 3:17 (KJV)

“And the ten horns which thou sawest upon the beast, these shall hate the whore, and shall make her desolate and naked, and shall eat her flesh, and burn her with fire.” Revelation 17:16 (KJV)

So who is Jezebel? These two verses placed side by side show us that the great whore of Revelation 17 is indeed none other than the Laodicean church. Jezebel and the great whore are one and the same. This church is the identity of the great whore of Revelation and from the very beginning was a creation of the red dragon, the beast, Satan. She is the mother of harlots; compromised of all the earth’s religions. Yes, Catholicism and Islam are a part of it, but so is Christianity and every single one of the Protestant denominations. The truth is that none of these religions either replace or equate to a personal relationship with Jesus Christ. There are no shortcuts, period.

Satan has used the great whore to deceive the masses, even the very elect, but when the time comes he will burn her with fire. Yes, she will indeed burn; she must be done away with before the tribulation can begin, because it is only once she has been burned that the beast can replace her as the object of worship (Revelation 13:12 KJV).

“Be Strong in the Grace that is in Christ Jesus” – 2 Timothy Chapter 2 [podcast]


A Good Soldier of Christ Jesus

1  Thou therefore, my son, be strong in the grace that is in Christ Jesus.

2  And the things that thou hast heard of me among many witnesses, the same commit thou to faithful men, who shall be able to teach others also.

3  Thou therefore endure hardness, as a good soldier of Jesus Christ.

4  No man that warreth entangleth himself with the affairs of this life; that he may please him who hath chosen him to be a soldier.

5  And if a man also strive for masteries, yet is he not crowned, except he strive lawfully.

6  The husbandman that laboureth must be first partaker of the fruits.

7  Consider what I say; and the Lord give thee understanding in all things.

8  Remember that Jesus Christ of the seed of David was raised from the dead according to my gospel:

9  Wherein I suffer trouble, as an evil doer, even unto bonds; but the word of God is not bound.

10  Therefore I endure all things for the elect’s sakes, that they may also obtain the salvation which is in Christ Jesus with eternal glory.

11  It is a faithful saying: For if we be dead with him, we shall also live with him:

12  If we suffer, we shall also reign with him: if we deny him, he also will deny us:

13  If we believe not, yet he abideth faithful: he cannot deny himself.

A Workman Approved by God

14  Of these things put them in remembrance, charging them before the Lord that they strive not about words to no profit, but to the subverting of the hearers.

15  Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.

16  But shun profane and vain babblings: for they will increase unto more ungodliness.

17  And their word will eat as doth a canker: of whom is Hymenaeus and Philetus;

18  Who concerning the truth have erred, saying that the resurrection is past already; and overthrow the faith of some.

19  Nevertheless the foundation of God standeth sure, having this seal, The Lord knoweth them that are his. And, Let every one that nameth the name of Christ depart from iniquity.

20  But in a great house there are not only vessels of gold and of silver, but also of wood and of earth; and some to honour, and some to dishonour.

21  If a man therefore purge himself from these, he shall be a vessel unto honour, sanctified, and meet for the master’s use, and prepared unto every good work.

22  Flee also youthful lusts: but follow righteousness, faith, charity, peace, with them that call on the Lord out of a pure heart.

23  But foolish and unlearned questions avoid, knowing that they do gender strifes.

24  And the servant of the Lord must not strive; but be gentle unto all men, apt to teach, patient,

25  In meekness instructing those that oppose themselves; if God peradventure will give them repentance to the acknowledging of the truth;

26  And that they may recover themselves out of the snare of the devil, who are taken captive by him at his will.

“A Faithful Man shall Abound with Blessings” [podcast]


Do you desire to abound in the blessings of God?

Jesus our LORD taught that as we are faithful with what the LORD has already given us, then, and only then, will He multiply it.

ASK YOURSELF: Are you faithful to abide, to obey Him by obeying His Word? If so, Jesus and the Father are dwelling richly with you and will multiply you according to your proper, wise, faithful stewardship of what is already in your possession – which is from Him. See John 14:21-23.

“A faithful man shall abound with blessings: but he that maketh haste to be rich shall not be innocent.” Proverbs 28:20

God is not going to add to or multiply His supply and blessings to anyone who is sitting around, doing the church attendance thing, and not doing His biblically stated will – of loving, tending to, giving to, serving, and blessing others (Matthew 22:37-39). Every true disciple is a doer of the WORD (James 1:22; 1 John 2:3-6, etc.). A true disciple is not known merely by being a church attender, which any old dead fish counterfeit can be. No, the true servant of Christ is known by his supreme love for, and faithful obedience to Christ his King, his “first love” (Revelation 2:4-5).

“For all things come of thee, and of thine own have we given thee.” 1 Chronicles 29:14

Every good gift and blessing is from God (James 1:17). We take from what He’s given us and we share it with others – whether that be supply, or spiritual blessings in Christ, or material blessings.

“But this I say, He which soweth sparingly shall reap also sparingly; and he which soweth bountifully shall reap also bountifully. 7 Every man according as he purposeth in his heart, so let him give; not grudgingly, or of necessity: for God loveth a cheerful giver. 8 And God is able to make all grace abound toward you; that ye, always having all sufficiency in all things, may abound to every good work: 9 (as it is written, He hath dispersed abroad; he hath given to the poor: his righteousness remaineth for ever. 10 Now he that ministereth seed to the sower both minister bread for your food, and multiply your seed sown, and increase the fruits of your righteousness;) 11 being enriched in every thing to all bountifulness, which causeth through us thanksgiving to God.” 2 Corinthians 9:6-11

“Freely ye have received, freely give.” Matthew 10:8

ARE GOD’S BLESSINGS CONDITIONAL?  Yes they are. Here’s but one example of how God’s people forfeited His blessings due to living life on their own terms instead of complying with His.

“Your iniquities have turned away these things, and your sins have withholden good things from you.” Jeremiah 5:25

Jesus’ Parable of the Talents:
Matthew 25:14-30

14 For the kingdom of heaven is as a man travelling into a far country, who called his own servants, and delivered unto them his goods.

15  And unto one he gave five talents, to another two, and to another one; to every man according to his several ability; and straightway took his journey.

16  Then he that had received the five talents went and traded with the same, and made them other five talents.

17  And likewise he that had received two, he also gained other two.

18  But he that had received one went and digged in the earth, and hid his lord’s money.

19  After a long time the lord of those servants cometh, and reckoneth with them.

20  And so he that had received five talents came and brought other five talents, saying, Lord, thou deliveredst unto me five talents: behold, I have gained beside them five talents more.

21  His lord said unto him, Well done, thou good and faithful servant: thou hast been faithful over a few things, I will make thee ruler over many things: enter thou into the joy of thy lord.

22  He also that had received two talents came and said, Lord, thou deliveredst unto me two talents: behold, I have gained two other talents beside them.

23  His lord said unto him, Well done, good and faithful servant; thou hast been faithful over a few things, I will make thee ruler over many things: enter thou into the joy of thy lord.

24  Then he which had received the one talent came and said, Lord, I knew thee that thou art an hard man, reaping where thou hast not sown, and gathering where thou hast not strawed:

25  And I was afraid, and went and hid thy talent in the earth: lo, there thou hast that is thine.

26  His lord answered and said unto him, Thou wicked and slothful servant, thou knewest that I reap where I sowed not, and gather where I have not strawed:

27  Thou oughtest therefore to have put my money to the exchangers, and then at my coming I should have received mine own with usury.

28  Take therefore the talent from him, and give it unto him which hath ten talents.

29  For unto every one that hath shall be given, and he shall have abundance: but from him that hath not shall be taken away even that which he hath.

30  And cast ye the unprofitable servant into outer darkness: there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth.

Prayer: Holy Father, I come to You in the name of my LORD Jesus. Please make my heart to long for more of You, to love and worship You as my supreme God, Supplier, and Provider. Please unite my heart to truly fear Thy holy Name and to be quickened by Your Word and Holy Spirit unto obedience. Please multiply Your grace to my life as You are working in me and Your body both to will and to do of Your good pleasure. In Jesus’ name, amen.
