It is really quite cruel to push the notion that ANYONE is born in a body not intended by God. If this grown man is (embarrassingly) confused, what of the young men and women growing up in this twisted framework of “acceptance” that actually encourages them to believe Satan’s lie, and daring to be proud of it?

“But mark this: There will be terrible times in the last days.”-—2 Tim: 3

People need straight-up truth from believers in Christ Jesus. If we are his ambassadors, how can we in any way encourage them to believe lies? I find this very difficult personally, because I’m a teacher-pleasing little suck-up from way back. When I boldly stand in the Truth and get blowback, I worry if I was just being a jerk. Am I alone in struggling with this? Oswald Chambers said something about how we worry what our obedience will cost OTHERS? Ouch, that just NAILS me!

God is working in my heart, so eventually I’ll mature in this. The drive to mature is to be able to love God and others. We cannot offer delusions to others and call that love, right?

If one is a Christian serious about his/her faith, here is a pertinent command from the Bible:

Deuteronomy 22:5

“A woman shall not wear a man’s garment, nor shall a man put on a woman’s cloak, for whoever does these things is an abomination to the Lord your God.” ( New English Version)
