Dealing Prudently With Gender Issues. Part [10] 04/22/2023 (Morning thought)

Psalms 58:3 The wicked are estranged from the womb: they go astray as soon as they be born, speaking lies.

Then the parents may have to address the issue of contrary feelings that the child in question may be experiencing. Fathers and mothers would have to explain in real time, that most of our feelings, as human beings, are contrary to the word of God. It’s not just on gender issues, for it applies to every facet of our existence. God does not condemn any person for experiencing contrary feelings, for if this were the case, none of us would be saved.

Psalms 51:1 Have mercy upon me, O God, according to thy lovingkindness: according unto the multitude of thy tender mercies blot out my transgressions. 2 Wash me thoroughly from mine iniquity, and cleanse me from my sin. 3 For I acknowledge my transgressions: and my sin is ever before me. 4 Against thee, thee only, have I sinned, and done this evil in thy sight that You might be justified when You speak, and be clear when thou judge. 5 Behold, I was shaped in iniquity; and in sin did my mother conceive me.

When the Calypsonian Shadow sings about “Feeling the feelings” he is referring to contrary feelings he is experiencing, which come down upon him in heavy torrents, and which also plague the unrighteous, the righteous, and even those sitting on the fence. Every human being that has ever lived has had to confront a plethora of contrary feelings.

Romans 7:18 For I know that in me (that is, in my flesh,) dwelleth no good thing: for to will is present with me; but how to perform that which is good I find not. 19 For the good that I would I do not: but the evil which I would not, that I do. 20 Now if I do that I would not, it is no more I that do it, but sin that dwelleth in me. 21 I find then a law, that, when I would do good, evil is present with me.

May The Lord add His blessing to the study of His word. God bless!
