And the man said, The woman whom thou gavest to be with me, she gave me of the tree, and I did eat.
-- Gen. 3:12 (KJV)
Instead of fully accepting the blame for disobeying the Lord, Adam puts the blame on Eve for the error that he committed. Even to this day, men blame women for just about everything. Every 9 seconds in the USA, a woman is assaulted or beaten due to domestic violence.
One can easily tell whether or not a spiritual gathering is on the up and up. All that one has to do is to observe how the women are treated. For example, look at the religion of Islam. The religion of Islam totally degrades women. In Islam, it is legal for a man to hit her wife if they have a simple verbal disagreement. In Islam, a man can divorce his wife at any time for any reason without having to pay alimony. In Islam, women are commanded to be fully veiled whenever they are in public. In Islam, women are viewed to have 1/25th of the value of men. Instead of blaming women for everything, reflect on how you can change for the better.
Numerical Analysis: The numerical pattern for this verse is 3,6,1,2. (3) To stay in the Spirit, speak correctly to Him. (6) To expose evil, realize that women are gifts from God. (1) To stay in the anointing, stop blaming women for your mistakes. (2) To be delivered, watch what you eat.
