><>...Blessed are ye...><>

Luke 6:17-23
17 And he came down with them, and stood in the plain, and the company of his disciples, and a great multitude of people out of all Judaea and Jerusalem, and from the sea coast of Tyre and Sidon, which came to hear him, and to be healed of their diseases;
18 And they that were vexed with unclean spirits: and they were healed.
19 And the whole multitude sought to touch him: for there went virtue out of him, and healed them all.
20 And he lifted up his eyes on his disciples, and said, Blessed be ye poor: for yours is the kingdom of God.
21 Blessed are ye that hunger now: for ye shall be filled. Blessed are ye that weep now: for ye shall laugh.
22 Blessed are ye, when men shall hate you, and when they shall separate you from their company, and shall reproach you, and cast out your name as evil, for the Son of man's sake.
23 Rejoice ye in that day, and leap for joy: for, behold, your reward is great in heaven: for in the like manner did their fathers unto the prophets.

><>...The wise and foolish builders...><>

Luke 6:47-49
47 Whosoever cometh to me, and heareth my sayings, and doeth them, I will shew you to whom he is like:
48 He is like a man which built an house, and digged deep, and laid the foundation on a rock: and when the flood arose, the stream beat vehemently upon that house, and could not shake it: for it was founded upon a rock.
49 But he that heareth, and doeth not, is like a man that without a foundation built an house upon the earth; against which the stream did beat vehemently, and immediately it fell; and the ruin of that house was great.

<<And another thing, the women who are aligned with this group (which by the way is a very small minority) in most cases do not have any interest in doing what God intended for their lives. They have zero interest in God.
The real women of this world are the ones who are out there getting real things done, and have no use for such an organization, Not before NOW, Not after NOW, not ever. Real women have always been a productive element of every society.
There is no real need for NOW anyway,never was. And even the women involved with this group would be a lot more productive if they would only stop whining. >>

That is only your opinion. You have no way of knowing that. My opinion is certainly different than yours. It is wrong of you to generalize not only the whys of the how the organization was formed, but the intentions and the implications that these women are godless.
It is comments such as that, that underscore the very need for such organizations.
