Why LDS women don't hold priesthood

 

There's been a concern by many, including Julia Stiles why women can't hold the priesthood in the LDS church. There are a few reasons for this, the first has to do with salvation. There isn't a gender requirement to summon the power of God to manifest powers like healings and visions. When I was the prophet Joseph Smith I did not support that women rule in the kingdom for the sake that was tradition and another reason: the salvation of men. In eternity many men decide to elect not to fill the measure of their creation(which is to become like God) because they have misgivings with the process. Women outnumber men in the highest degree of God's glory at least 200 to 1(revelation you can have revealed to yourself given to me on 6-3-2014). If that is because we need to do more to help our male peers then we need to do as much as we can to help improve it. I only need 1 wife(to pass go and collect 100 dollars) and a true Queen can keep a true King's interest. The more treasures a man stores up in heaven the better chance he has to achieving that end result. Serving 'God and mammon' are the best treasures a man can stock up in heaven. The problem with women ministering to people with health problems for the Kingdom's sake is that doing so would eliminate the opportunity for men to provide those services to other people(through common things like priesthood blessings) that manifest divine power. Healings are common among people of faith, and there have been many healings done in the name of Jesus by men and women alike. It's a man's birth right to be the chief executive for his family if he manages to create one but that doesn't mean he should ever enforce his will over his wife unless it's in a way he knows she sincerely enjoys. The key to having success in the family has to do with establishing chemistry among potential mates before marriage. If a man doesn't like his woman's input as an individual or partner then they probably won't become a successful couple until he learns to care and vice versa. Discerning this factor is a magic trick that most spirit guides don't have but if it was more common we would see less failed marriages because marriage would be discouraged among couples who aren't discernably happy. If a man lives a clean life and has developed his intellect in a way so that he becomes void of interest in power struggles he will simply identify the right thing to do and expect everyone will fall into that outcome. A man with legitimate authority as a governer over his family operates in a manner that considers everyone's input. Life's about having fun and no spouse is having fun if he or she is prohibited from individual self-expression or if one spouse insists on being the dominant mind for executive decisions. A woman isn't truly empathetical if she can't feel when her husband wants to express his input and vice versa. The true language of love has to do with keeping ones spouse at a high level of elation and sustaining that ideal like a musician sustains consistant rhythm. At the end of the day I plan to work on a system to consider women for additional expression in roles that they maintain additional priesthod power for the kingdoms sake.  I haven't weighed in on when it would be good to give women any additional administering power because I don't hold the keys in the kingdom right now and no one has asked me for a revelation on the matter.

 

I plan to weigh in on it when I get married or if someone really wants me to discover a process that would not diminish the contributions of men as administers. I think the idea of a spouse blessing their romantic counterpart and vice versa is a 'hot' idea and plan to work on a formula for it to use in the confines of my own home. Ritual romance is a joy many couples enjoy and I'm sure priesthood power could spice that up quite handsomely but perhaps this will only be practical on an individual basis.

 

There are a lot of techniques to create large quantities of 'gay' among spouses, and spouse to spouse blessings may be a viable action to consider. I combine the idea of feelings of passion, admiration and affection among spouses into one word and that word I call 'gay'. I'm not interested in marrying a woman that doesn't have a large 'gay' factor to match mine.

 

Because I haven't considered each data point that I saw when I made the original decision I can't make a complete weigh in at this time. The number one driver of decisions like this is evolution. How do you shape people in a way that will maximize their potential and help them find themselves establish a deeper foothold in heaven through service and positive intentions.

 

All righteous expressions of divine power by females can be identified and accepted among the enlightened but the point of determining what is acceptable within God's kingdom has more to with the proper build order to create effective pre-invisioned outcomes that encourage the desirable end result.

 

Men and women come together best when they draw each other together by no other reason than individual heart winning power. In an enlightened civilization a man puts forth his effort to draw a good woman to him through good esteem and a woman does the same. Despite how far we've come as a people the standards for good romance these days are still quite primative. If they weren't then we would see a lot more people prepared for love at first sight and be grounded enough not let such great opportunities pass them by.

 

Although women may have ambition to be executives in the corporate or government sector an honest truth all women must consider is that men are physically and mentally designed to excel at physical tasks and thus it is practical they put their advantage to good use. In primative times any dominant clan or nation would send men to battle and not women for a reason. The physical powers many women have are especially intriguing when one observes how effective they are at making a men's eyes wide... but beyond that just like a man a woman is only as great as she chooses to be. Their emotional talents, common advantage in the realm of small motor skills, inherent nuturing ability and general knack for keeping their male counterparts in check prove to be the desirable traits to help families to head in healthy and desirable directions. I don't accept the brainwash that women are desirable authority figures because if they can't win my heart then they're not a good executive and if a woman thinks she needs to be in an executive position to prove her worth she's looking in the wrong place to accomplish that end. I don't like anyone(whether it be a man or a woman) who feels they need to exert his or her will or mind over other people. At the end of the day a man's role in the priesthood has to do with what he's been designed to do best: Champion for his family and judge and rule in righteousness. Let a man do his job as champion and let a woman evolve herself in the ways she feels divinely inspired. Does a woman need to rule over Christ? The greatest of all? A man's end result is to be just like him so women must remember to give her man(and every other good man)the opportunity to prove he's worthy of that final outcome. When he abuses his power in any way he fails that test. If power is being abused any good organization has a method of shutting down that abuse. At this time the LDS kingdom does need a better process for this as I have observed some power abuse personally.

 

Executive opportunities are available to women to prove to themselves that they can also rule in righteousness in the many projects, initiatives, groups, activities and companies outside of God's government. Within the Kingdom a woman can lead in the relief society and in other individual ward commities. If you knew God you would know he may often refer to his kingdom as his government.
