The Woman in Genesis and the Woman in Revelation

In scriptures, many things are said about many “women”, such as Sarah, Ruth, Naomi, Deborah, Esther, and others. But I want to make mention of two women you don't hear too much about across pulpits - the woman in Genesis 3 that the serpent deceived and the woman in Revelation 12:1 who is clothed with the sun (the one that recognizes the deception ).  They are both types of churches.

One "woman" is set up and controlled through philosophies, traditions of men, vain deceit, rudiments of the world (Col. 2:8). She's the adulterer that has caused the people of God to turn away from the “light” (illumination, knowledge, wisdom, understanding, life, health, inheritance) which God gave his people in the beginning. She's still in existence! In Revelation 17: 1-18, she's called “MYSTERY, BABYLON THE GREAT, THE MOTHER OF HARLOTS AND ABOMINATIONS OF THE EARTH” - the false woman or false church system. She is the one (woman) that fits Proverbs 14:12, “There is A WAY which seemeth right unto A MAN, but the end thereof are the ways of death.” Whereas John 14:6 states “I am THE WAY , the truth and the life”!

The other “woman” – the true woman in Revelation 12:1 clothed with the sun (the light, the righteousness of God) - is reproducing Sons of God (the twelve stars) and walking in Kingdom authority (moon under her feet, meaning walking on the power of the enemy). This is the woman (body of Christ, the true church) walking the earth operating in the heavenlies now, not when you get up beyond the blue, but right here and right now! Galations 4:26 “But Jerusalem which is above (already in a high place in the heavenlies in Christ Jesus) is free, which is the mother of us all.”

Revelation 19:7-8 “Let us be glad and rejoice, and give honour to him: for the marriage of the Lamb is come, and his wife (the church) hath made herself ready. And to her was granted that she should be arrayed in fine linen, clean and white (clothed in light): for the fine linen is the righteousness of saints.”

"For he hath made him to be sin for us, who knew no sin; that we (the true church) might be made the righteousness of God in him.” 2 Corinthians 5:21

This is going on now for those who believe!
