I wonder if his parents, who started him on this path, were among those who knew their son was really a girl because when he was a toddler he’d reach for dolls or something pink in color
“Question: What does Scripture tell us to do when someone sins against us? “

I’m pretty sure that It doesn’t tell us to sacrifice our children to Moloch.
We need to be “In [Their] Way”.
OK ... so what DOES it say?
Progressives refuse to “follow the science” so the young must be sacrificed.
“An 18-year-old boy died “
While technically teen an 18 year old is not considered a boy.
At least he was old enough to make that stupid decision, but having puberty blockers administered while a child is criminal IMHO.
Reminds me of the Roman Emperor Emperor Elagabalus who made the pervert Caesars look almost normal.

Elagabalus wanted to change sex and become a woman. He would roam the streets of Rome dressed as a woman. Nothing unusual in modern times, but a complete shock for the masculine Roman society.
Just like Caligula, Elagabalus opened a palace brothel. But he took it one step further — he worked there, selling his body to the highest bidder. He competed with the rest of the prostitutes, which one would earn more money.
He married a charioteer Hierocles and asked him to beat him up every time he cheated on him.
The soul that tries to go in through that front door would still technically be going in through the back door. 🤔
Apparently there is big money in butchering the reproductive organs of children. Sick.
Jesus can not return soon enough.
Pray for this world to recover its sanity.🙏
Why, yes. Rebuking though is not the same as not forgiving. A lot of what the prophets did was rebuke those they addressed. Some, like Jeremiah, did so through their tears. Christ rebuked plenty of folks. Rebuking is, or at least can be, a way to call people to repentance by telling them they need to repent.
But when dealing with people who display the fruit of depravity, fruit associated with having been turned over to depraved minds, rebuking them can also serve the purpose about helping to warn others of their spiritual condition. Christ did this when He rebuked pharisees and scribes and in that context warned others about their saying and not doing. We should forgive such persons when they do us wrong, it is true, but that doesn’t translate into continued fellowship with them as if they were Christians.
I believe Paul was clear that when repentance happens, though someone who has the proverbial smell of fire clinging to them, there there should be fellowship. Even if a fellowship filled with concern for what they may yet be bringing with them from their previous life romping in some burning cesspool of sin.
A big problem, not just with our society but all of them (mileage varies), comes when believers compromise and people are let into fellowship though openly unrepentant. I occasionally paraphrase a classic hymn to speak about these, writing: “Just as I am, I’m changing not. How dare you say my soul has spots! I’m okay with me, and that’s enough. Lamb of God I’ll come, but only as I am.’
Rather than compromise we should call people to their knees, not to their proverbial Lazy-Boy recliners.
As for the laws of a nation, at least these days, they do not try to rebuke folks for their better that way ... probably should since secularism easily enables the worst in men ... but they can still be within the Lords will, even for the death penalty.
If what The Lord has instructed, in His book, doesn’t speak to you,
why ask for my (guaranteed to be inferior) interpretation?
( ...it seems illumination is clearly not what you are seeking. )
I do hope that you resist that Deamon screaching that “Turn the Other Cheek”
is a commandment from God to let [Them] destroy more children...
Because then we’d need to be in your way, too.
These doctors would make Josef Mengele proud.
Exactly.
So ... while the State remains able to do its God-given job of keeping the peace, I do not advocate violence against these perverts. OTOH, silence gives assent. I believe we are commanded to rebuke them publicly since their sins are blatand and public.
I don’t see how the parents or doctors can live with themselves in this story and the thousands of others just like it.
May they all get their very well deserved Judgement.
If we were a sane society...
Generally agree with the article, but it does a disservice to the readers by failing to mention that the “boy” was 18 (at the time of the surgery).
The boy was a boy when he was abused by the medical profession and others charged with his care because they gave him puberty blockers.
Your post is way too kind.
Jesus says over and over again that the way to destruction is broad - wide, and that the road to life is narrow (Matthew 7:13-14) and further in Luke 13:24.
He’s not playing when it comes to this.
I think the numbers game pretty much rules out 95%+ of the entire world’s population that has ever lived judging by His description of it.
Even most so-called Christians would rather think that their old grandpa who was “good” and long gone is now in Heaven than to even chisel away at what it actually takes to be saved - to be sure.
Sad sad state....
Folks would rather chase death.
Folks would rather live for now.
Folks would rather satisfy the flesh.
Folks would rather (fill in the blank)...
Than to believe, repent, and be saved.
