She is proof that the multitudes are after ‘loaves and fishes’. The carnal minded person looks at the outward, is influenced by it, and follows charisma. That alone developes a following. Combine such charisma with a distorted, but seemingly spiritual grasp of the Word and you have a Balaam.
Oh.......and throw in some ‘with it’ gospel music, and you too can ‘rake it in’.
Show me some people hungering and thirsting for righteousness, and I’ll show you people that can touch God and reach souls without any of the microphones and sound systems, stage props, statues, images, formal robes, etc.
There’s a reason that Jezebel ‘painted’ her face to greet Jehu’s arrival. She was using every effort to enhance her physical appeal, which didn’t distract a man on a mission from God. Multitudes of women today have wholeheartly embraced the paint even though it is portrayed as ungodly in the Word.
My lovely wife hasn’t worn any ‘makeup’ (what an appropriate name for it) for almost 30 years, and I just love her natural face. She has really enjoyed the freedom of not wearing the stuff; and doesn’t miss the hassle of putting it on and taking it off. I’m so used to that natural look, that when I see other women with makeup on, that’s the first thing I notice.

ABSOLUTELY INDEED.
My wife occasionally wore a little. I never liked it.
Always felt like grease or butter. Yuck.
However, I learned that evidently ?most? women
do not really dress for men . . .
they dress for what the other women will think of them.
I realize there are exception.
