Whore’s Forehead

If knowledge is power then attempt to imagine the power of the God of all knowledge. It is hard to fathom in the natural mind but Christians are required to put on the mind of Christ and the mind of Jesus Christ is the mind of God. Jesus said in John, Chapter 12, Verses 49-50:

49 For I have not spoken of myself; but the Father which sent me, he gave me a commandment, what I should say, and what I should speak.

50 And I know that his commandment is life everlasting: whatsoever I speak therefore, even as the Father said unto me, so I speak.

The Lord Jesus prayed to God in John, Chapter 17, Verses 20-21 and said:

20 Neither pray I for these alone, but for them also which shall believe on me through their word;

21 That they all may be one; as thou, Father, art in me, and I in thee, that they also may be one in us: that the world may believe that thou hast sent me.

Our beginning of knowledge and the position of oneness begins the day of our salvation when we are born into the family of God and requires our allegiance to the word of God in His Holy Bible. Christians are required to think and speak the same thing which must be regulated by adherence to one word, God's Word, without additions or deletions (1 Corinthians 1:10, 2 Corinthians 13:11, Revelation 22:18-19). It is essential to note that God and His Word are one and the same. John, Chapter 1, Verse 1 reads:

In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.

Walking in God's Word as revealed in his Authorized King James Version Bible is in fact the oneness that the King of Glory speaks of and it is perfect knowledge. Make your life single-eyed and confusion free. Become one with the word of God...true knowledge. Click on to "Further With Jesus" on this site.

GOD SAID foreheads! Ezekiel, Chapter 3, Verse 8:

Behold, I have made thy face strong against their faces, and thy forehead strong against their foreheads.

As you continue on in this article you will discover part of the secret of the forehead.

MAN SAID God's word is for the uneducated and those who are easily led.

Now THE RECORD. God focuses much attention in His word on the human forehead. It is associated with morality, judgment, commitment, memory and control.

God speaks judgment against a backsliding Israel who had replaced His words with the doctrines and customs of the heathen and said that they had a whore's forehead.

Jeremiah, Chapter 3, Verse 3:

Therefore the showers have been withholden, and there hath been no latter rain; and thou hadst a whore's forehead, thou refusedst to be ashamed.

God said they had a whore's forehead and note they refused to be ashamed. The whore's forehead then was associated with immorality and the lack of shame. The first verse I used concerning the secret of the forehead was Ezekiel, Chapter 3, Verse 8:

Behold, I have made thy face strong against their faces, and thy forehead strong against their foreheads.

And also Ezekiel, Chapter 3, Verse 9:

As an adamant harder than flint have I made thy forehead: fear them not, neither be dismayed at their looks, though they be a rebellious house.

God made the prophet Ezekiel's forehead righteous and strong against the foreheads of backsliding Israel. In Revelation, Chapter 7, Verse 3, God seals His servants in their foreheads.

Saying, Hurt not the earth, neither the sea, nor the trees, till we have sealed the servants of our God in their foreheads.

In Revelation, Chapter 14, Verse 1, the Bible says that God's name is written in His servants' foreheads:

And I looked, and, lo, a Lamb stood on the mount Sion, and with him an hundred forty and four thousand, having his Father's name written in their foreheads.

The Bible makes many mentions of the human forehead. It's important to remember that God's Word is absolute truth and it is perfect science. Thousands of years before today's educated men knew the reasons why, the infinite God of creation publishes the foundational truth.

According to U.S. News and World Report, a neuroscientist of University College London Medical School examined two young sociopaths and attributed their evil behavior to a common injury that they both experienced to their orbital frontal cortex which is a part of the brain located in the area of the human forehead just above the eyes. The researcher surmised that this area of the brain plays a serious role in matters of judgment and impulse control. A short line from the article concerning the frontal cortex reports:

It allows people to balance their needs and desires against morality and values.

According to Discover Magazine writer Robert Sapolsky:

The prefrontal cortex is the brain region that plays a central role in self-discipline, in gratification postponement, in putting a rein on one's impulses.

Again Sapolsky reports:

Violent sociopaths appear to have insufficient metabolic activity in the prefrontal region. And damage to the prefrontal cortex, such as that created by strokes, causes a disinhibited, frontal personality. The person may become apathetic or childishly silly, hypersexual or bellicose as hell, scatological or blasphemous.

Keep in mind the prefrontal cortex is located in the area of the forehead just above the eyes.

According to G.C. Bosley in an article titled, "The Effects of Small Quantities of Alcohol," he said:

Among social drinkers alcohol causes shrinkage of the frontal lobes, the center of moral discernment.

Even moderate drinking affects the frontal lobes in one's forehead and it is certainly common knowledge that the drinking of alcoholic beverages impairs Godly morality. Besides social drinkers there are some 14 million people in America who are alcoholics or alcohol abusers who are damaging their frontal lobes in their foreheads which is the seat of morality and judgment. Alcohol actually resculpts the brain in a negative way.

The following is a quote from an article in U.S. News and Word Report titled, "Your Brain on Alcohol:"

At this point, recent brain-imaging studies show, the primitive nucleus accumbens, with its hunger for pleasure, may ultimately not be the main player. New pathways have been formed, adapted to function in alcohol's service. Now, researchers believe, the frontal cortex, the brain's executive branch responsible for decisions and memory, holds a mere memory of pleasure, as insistent as the original pleasure, and demands another drink. Alcohol may also put its stamp on areas of the frontal cortex involved in judgment and impulse control.

Notice in Isaiah, Chapter 28, Verse 7 the association of judgment and alcohol and remember the frontal lobe and forehead:

But they also have erred through wine, and through strong drink are out of the way; the priest and the prophet have erred through strong drink, they are swallowed up of wine, they are out of the way through strong drink; they err in vision, they stumble in judgment.

GOD SAID thousands of years before man knew why that the forehead is the seat of morality, judgment and commitment.

MAN SAID God's word is for the uneducated and those who are easily led.

Now you have THE RECORD.
