Churches
refers to Proverbs
31:1-31 as
"Virtuous Woman" rather than
"Noble Wife". They are
twisting the scriptures so they
don't
offend single women! The
scripture is actually speaking
about a "Godly
Wife-Pr
31:10"
who "Has
a Husband-Pr
31:11"
and "Has
Children-Pr
31:28".
And she takes good "care
of her household,
she is not idle-Pr
31:27".
(Teaching on "Virtuous
Wife").

Let Us Pray;
Dear Heavenly Father,
in your name, your name Jesus
Christ and in the name of the
Holy Spirit
we pray that
the women that needs to learn
these scriptures and the
meanings, do so but do with
action not just
words and
not just with thoughts! In
doing that they may Glorify you
and let the world know you are
the one
and only God
through your son and our savior
Jesus Christ! AMEN!
