Isaiah 45
5 I am the LORD, and there is none else, there is no God beside me:
Phil 2
9Wherefore God also hath highly exalted him, and given him a name which is above every name:
10That at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of things in heaven, and things in earth, and things under the earth;
11And that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.
Paganism and goddess worship goes all the way back to the tower of babel and probably also existed in the times before Noah's flood. The Apostle Paul explains the reasons why men and women worship false gods. It is because man doesn't want to admit that he is a sinner and needs God to save him, so he makes himself into his own god as well as worshipping other false gods (and goddesses).
Romans 1:18-23
18 For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who hold the truth in unrighteousness;
19 Because that which may be known of God is manifest in them; for God hath shewed it unto them.
20 For the invisible things of him from the creation of the world are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even his eternal power and Godhead; so that they are without excuse:
21 Because that, when they knew God, they glorified him not as God, neither were thankful; but became vain in their imaginations, and their foolish heart was darkened.
22 Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools,
23 And changed the glory of the uncorruptible God into an image made like to corruptible man, and to birds, and fourfooted beasts, and creeping things.
Most Christian women do not practice abject paganism like casting spells, or worshipping the earth and the sun and the moon. However, some Christian women do worship Mary the mother of Jesus (which I will talk about in the next study specifically) and some have also adopted newage practices like using crystals for healing, practicing reiki or yoga, praying to angels, etc. And there is also the teachings of "embracing your inner goddess" or "embracing the divine feminine". All of this is goddess worship and the worshipping of yourself known as "creature worship."
Biblical Womanhood however is completely different from these teachings, not just in appearance (like women dressing modestly) but at the very core of it. A godly woman is a woman who has recognized her sin nature and understands that she cannot save herself. She has then believed the Gospel of the grace of God, how that Christ Jesus died for our sins, was buried and rose again for our justification. As a believer, she then reads and studies God's word rightly divided, believes it and yeilds herself over to live according to it. This allows CHRIST to live in and through her. She recognizes that, "I am crucified with Christ: nevertheless I live; yet not I, but Christ liveth in me: and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by the faith of the Son of God, who loved me, and gave himself for me." (Gal 2:20 KJB) She understands that anything good that is done through her is because of the Lord Jesus Christ and His word working effectually in her. She gives ALL GLORY TO GOD.
1Co 1:29 KJB
29 That no flesh should glory in his presence.
These Christian women embracing these "divine feminine" teachings are doing nothing but puffing up their own flesh!
Gal 6:14 KJB
14 But God forbid that I should glory, save in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ, by whom the world is crucified unto me, and I unto the world.
Phl 2:11 KJB
11 And that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.
The lost women who have not trusted in Christ Jesus are on their way to an eternal lake of fire. The only way to escape eternal death is to believe the gospel of the grace of God (see 1 Cor 15:1-4).
Rev 21:8 KJB
8 But the fearful, and unbelieving, and the abominable, and murderers, and whoremongers, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all liars, shall have their part in the lake which burneth with fire and brimstone: which is the second death.
