As it was said to the Corinthians: “Know ye not that a little leaven leaveneth the whole lump?”
The 5th chapter of Paul’s letter to the Church at Corinth teaches us the great and significant importance of sexual purity within the Body of Christ. Such a thought as this today is mocked by much of the “visible church” . I believe it is a trend that Jesus warned us about that is on the rise, and is an obvious sign of the times we are living in right now. It has and is becoming “as it was in the days of Noah”
Three times in Scripture there is a phrase about
Take heed that no man deceive you.
Mat 24:5 For many shall come in my name, saying, I am Christ; and shall deceive many.
Mat 24:6 And ye shall hear of wars and rumours of wars: see that ye be not troubled: for all these things must come to pass, but the end is not yet.
Mat 24:7 For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: and there shall be famines, and pestilences, and earthquakes, in divers places.
Mat 24:8 All these are the beginning of sorrows.
Mat 24:9 Then shall they deliver you up to be afflicted, and shall kill you: and ye shall be hated of all nations for my name’s sake.
Mat 24:10 And then shall many be offended, and shall betray one another, and shall hate one another.
Mat 24:11 And many false prophets shall rise, and shall deceive many.
Mat 24:12 And because iniquity shall abound, the love of many shall wax cold.
Mat 24:13 But he that shall endure unto the end, the same shall be saved.
Mat 24:14 And this gospel of the kingdom shall be preached in all the world for a witness unto all nations; and then shall the end come.
There are three mentions of a phrase concerning Leaven and a woman which are:
Gen_18:6 And Abraham hastened into the tent unto Sarah, and said, Make ready quickly three measures of fine meal, knead it, and make cakes upon the hearth.
Mat_13:33 Another parable spake he unto them; The kingdom of heaven is like unto leaven, which a woman took, and hid in three measures of meal, till the whole was leavened.
Luk_13:21 It is like leaven, which a woman took and hid in three measures of meal, till the whole was leavened.
2 Corinthians 11:1 – 6
2Co 11:1 Would to God ye could bear with me a little in my folly: and indeed bear with me.
2Co 11:2 For I am jealous over you with godly jealousy: for I have espoused you to one husband, that I may present you as a chaste virgin to Christ.
2Co 11:3 But I fear, lest by any means, as the serpent beguiled Eve through his subtilty, so your minds should be corrupted from the simplicity that is in Christ.
2Co 11:4 For if he that cometh preacheth another Jesus, whom we have not preached, or if ye receive another spirit, which ye have not received, or another gospel, which ye have not accepted, ye might well bear with him.
2Co 11:5 For I suppose I was not a whit behind the very chiefest apostles.
2Co 11:6 But though I be rude in speech, yet not in knowledge; but we have been throughly made manifest among you in all things.

1)When Eve was attacked by satan, in the garden, it was about being tricked into believing that God could not be trusted giving His word, and that it is OK to rebel against your husband since God and him are not credible.
2) God however, knew things were going to turn out this way and exactly how the devil would do and become empowered, and that a sacrifice would become necessary all the way until the cross, when God the Son would come down to bring an end to the power of the works of the devil and to restore all who believe in Him to right status with the Faith required to walk in victory!
3) The first woman was Eve, whose deception led mankind into the deep and snowballing things of sin, the second woman was Israel, who produced total scattering of the covenant people and a type of rebellion that mothered the many assaults against Jesus Himself and ultimately the crucifixion of Messiah the final woman is the false church who continues in the rebellion of the devil and is too proud to humble herself to the entirety of God’s Word and therefore becomes Mystery Babylon the Mother of harlots and the abominations of the earth.
