"Help meet." Wow, until last week, never made the connection. Genesis 2:18b reads, "I will make him a help meet for him." Well, if that doesn't sound

designer..."meet for him."   Just last week, a lady on you-tube talked about the wife's God-ordained role to "help" her Husband.   To give good help.  She explained that a helper who enables foolishness, isn't good help - to her Husband (who IS supposed to be Head of the Household), to their kids, and certainly her.   Foolishness.  That can take various forms - like a cooked 1040.  We hear the red pills go on - their definition of a submissive, obedient wife, is one who will just go ahead and sign the form, even though she knows her husband's such and such business expense is bogus.  Uhm, somehow that sort of enabling doesn't exactly sound like 
"...as in the Lord."  Cheating the gubment may seem like no big deal, but it adds up to yet another little "fox in the vineyard" - as if there's not already enough of those critters.  And guess what: it's a fact, that joe-fox will likely sniff around and meet up with joelene-fox - and we know what comes from that ;)

How comes we don't hear this preached?  It's been over ten years, and hundreds - if not a few thousand, by now - of sermons, i've heard preached from pulpits - both realtime and on-line.  And not a one, did i hear explained, what "help meet" actually is/does.  "Help meet" is two words; in olden times, meet was what we call suitable/appropriate.  And what we think is good help, and what the Lord defines as good help...yeah, oftentimes BIG difference.

Sly try, red-pillspulpiteers.
