WantonRebellious, lacking discipline.

God used this word 5 times in Scripture: once to Israel in the Masoretic Text Old Testament, twice to the Body of Christ in the Dispensation of Grace, and twice to Israel’s Little Flock in their tribulation.

This word has been redefined today to exclusively mean “women of sexual abandon”, which is contrary to Scripture.

According to Scripture, God is addressing rebellion and the lack of discipline.  As you can easily see, there is absolutely nothing sexual in these passages.

I Timothy 5:11-12 But the younger widows refuse: for when they have begun to wax wanton against Christ, they will marry; [12] Having damnation, because they have cast off their first faith.

James 5:5 Ye have lived in pleasure on the earth, and been wanton; ye have nourished your hearts, as in a day of slaughter.
