So, today’s topic is Gender. Who are you? Before you answer, don’t think about what you’ve been taught.
Here’s the truth:
So God created human beings in His own image. In the image of God He created them; male and female He created them. (Genesis 1:27)
God makes no mistakes. Girls dressing as boys and boys dressing as girls is not God’s plan.
We can dye our hair, but that doesn’t mean the color of our roots change. We can put on fake lashes, but that doesn’t mean our lashes will grow longer. We can hide behind our makeup, but that doesn’t mean the faces that God gave us aren’t beneath the ones we created. The same goes for gender. If you were born a girl and want to be a boy, surgery doesn’t make you a boy. You’re a girl who had surgery to have male body parts. You’re a girl, still. The same goes for boys who have surgeries to be girls. We haven’t given God nor the bodies He created enough credit. Your body will not fully agree with you, unless you are using it the way it was created to be used.
Where’s Your Strength
In the Bible, David calls himself “fearfully and wonderfully made.” (Psalms 139:14) David wasn’t saying that he made himself fearfully and wonderfully. He was talking about the God who created Him. God, who is all-powerful and wonderful, made him. David’s not the only one who was created by God. You, too, are fearfully and wonderfully made because the same Creator who made David made you.
Only God’s Word will last
God created people who don’t feel they were born the right sex. They were born the right sex. This is a spiritual fight, and it will never be won without knowing that. God didn’t get it wrong.. He can’t. It’s one of a few things He can’t do. Another one that’s impossible for God to do is lie. Another? He can’t lose.
People are hurting and feel lost because of the torment they feel over being “in the wrong body”. It’s real. Satan and his minions have no mercy. When we don’t know God, we don’t realize gender confusion and feelings of suicide aren’t bigger than God. Only Jesus is the only one Who can help any of us, if we want it.
“And the men, instead of having normal sexual relations with women, burned with lust for each other. Men did shameful things with other men, and as a result of this sin, they suffered within themselves the penalty they deserved.” (Romans 1:27)
A Celebrity Endorsement Doesn’t Make It Right, Either
I learned about advertising in sixth grade. Companies know that if they can get a celebrity to promote their product, most people will buy it. Well, just because they endorse something doesn’t mean it’s good for you. Money talks and makes many people rich for saying things they don’t believe or even understand.
Dwayne Wade and his wife, Gabrielle, are examples of celebrities endorsing something. Dwayne’s son is transitioned as a girl. He’s a kid. Kids go through phases.
My brothers called me a “tomboy”, which is a girl who likes to do “boy things”. No one thought of taking me to have surgery. I wore tank tops and did pull-ups in our backyard. I played with boys. My brother punched me in my funny bones. He was an amateur boxer. I laughed and cried at the same time. It was a mess.
I had same-girl attraction when I was about ten and then again at twenty-eight; that doesn’t mean I was gay. I could have acted on that attraction in my twenties but had a vision showing me what a disaster it would have been. (This was before I knew God’s Word on this topic.) So, although it was hard to say no (I was really beginning to feel for this girl), I didn’t want to hurt anyone. I said no to the temptation. Eventually, I pulled myself away from that relationship for many years. Now, we both have families of our own.
Good for you
Not everyone has my story. However, this narrative that a boy can be a girl and a girl can be a boy is untrue. Why would God make a girl and then give her all of the wrong feelings about being a girl? He’s not stupid. That’s a spirit trying to make God a liar. Impossible. That spirit needs to be removed from her. God doesn’t confuse us. He loves us too much. God knows what He’s doing. He knows how He made you and hasn’t forgotten it.
“For God is not [the author] of confusion, but of peace…” (1 Corinthians 14:33)
