Romans 1:18 For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men".... 20 For the invisible things of him from the creation of the world are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even his eternal power and Godhead; so that they are without excuse: 21 Because that, when they knew God, they glorified him not as God, neither were thankful; but became vain in their imaginations, and their foolish heart was darkened. 23 And changed the glory of the uncorruptible God into an image made like to corruptible man"....
This passage of scripture teaches us of the root cause of idolatry in those who have adopted the concepts of trans-gender, trans-racial, or trans-sexual ideologies, which have become mainstream modes of thought and action in our day. As Christians we must be very careful of these philosophies that are coming upon the face of the earth in quick succession, for they are preparing the world for the great delusion that is to close off the probation of mortal man. Who we are physically is determined at birth, and there is nothing that we can or should do to change that fact. The philosophy that teaches that a person's identity, their racial or sexual orientation is determined by the way they feel is a doctrine of devils, and must be identified for what it is.
If a person is born with female organs, but has strong male feelings or urges, that does not make the person a male, for our physical identity is never determined by feelings or urges, or even choice. When God created Adam, he was a lifeless "Male", until God breathe into his nostrils and he became a living soul. But Adam did not evolve into a male after God created him, for he was just as much male in his lifeless form, as in his living form. Similarly, if a person is born as white, or black, or Latino, that's who they are physically, regardless of how they may feel, and we should never aspire to be who we are not, as far as physical characteristics go, for God has already dealt with the issue of identity in the scriptures. Let's read:
Jeremiah 13:23 Can the Ethiopian change his skin, or the leopard his spots? then may ye also do good, that are accustomed to do evil.
Acts 17:24 God that made the world and all things therein".... 25 "Giveth to all life, and breath, and all things; 26 And hath made of one blood all nations of men for to dwell on all the face of the earth".... 28 For in him we live, and move, and have our being"..... "For we are also his offspring.
In a recent interview, a prominent CNN host laughed and mocked at the idea of a white woman being trans-racial, based on how she felt and how she chose to be. We do not know what's so funny about her stated aspirations, because the same news network endorsed Bruce Jenner in his journey from being male to female, based on how he felt. Thus the satanic doctrine of one's identification being based on feeling is seen to run as a common thread in both instances, and when this philosophy will have taken deep root in our world, we will see men aspiring to be women and vice-versa, based on the changeable and fluid standard of feeling and emotion.
This will then trigger a plethora of other deadly evils, in which everyone will feel at liberty to "Evolve" and choose their own identity or orientation, not based on who they really are, but on who they aspire to be. Thus black kids will desire blue eyes and blonde hair, and white kids will desire changes in their persons that will cause them to merge into the individuality of others, with no natural God-given identity to make us distinctly unique, as God originally intended. Even now some parents are choosing what physical characteristics they want to see in their children, and thus the human agent is presuming to usurp God's rightful authority to make us who He wants us to be.
It is this same mode of though that got us into the predicament we're now in, for Eve aspired to be who she was not, and thus took down both her husband and the human family in the sin which has brought so much ruin and woe upon the human family. Let's read:
Genesis 3:4 And the serpent said unto the woman, Ye shall not surely die: 5 For God doth know that in the day ye eat thereof, then your eyes shall be opened, and ye shall be as gods, knowing good and evil.
It is a grave sin for us to aspire to be who we are not naturally, for it robs us of both identity and individuality, a problem that the late Michael Jackson suffered severely with as he sought to surrender his natural features, in favor of what he thought was better for himself, and more socially acceptable. We should never be dissatisfied, ashamed, or uncomfortable with our physical characteristics, for God has made us in His own image, and any imperfection that may have come about as a result of Adam's fall, will one day be rectified by the same God who originally created us.
We therefore end with a passage of scripture which confirms to us the fact that we are wonderfully made by God, and as such we should never be ashamed of our physical features or identity, for it is Christ who makes us great. Let's read:
Psalm 139:14 I will praise thee; for I am fearfully and wonderfully made: marvellous are thy works; and that my soul knoweth right well. 15 My substance was not hid from thee, when I was made in secret, and curiously wrought in the lowest parts of the earth. 16 Thine eyes did see my substance, yet being unperfect; and in thy book all my members were written, which in continuance were fashioned, when as yet there was none of them.
May God help us to stay focused on Christ so that we may avoid the deadly snares and fatal philosophies of these last days. God bless!
