The Lord is awe-inspiring, fearsome, fascinating, intriguing, majestic, and full of splendor: breathtaking! Here is what I saw of him today and what came to my heart and mind in Genesis 1:27,
"So God created mankind in his own image, in the image of God he created them; male and female he created them."
Gender identity falls under the purview of our Creator. God created mankind, and did so by creating two types: male and female. Just as we do not have the choice to determine whether we are a horse or a dog or a cat, we do not have the choice to determine our gender. There is not one gender among mankind, nor is their three or four or any other number but two.
If one is confused about their gender, all they have to do is drop their pants and take a look at what is there (prior to any surgical mutilation). We come into life as male or female and nothing can be done to change that.
We live in a day where the notion is otherwise. Our culture is constantly bombarded with the psychopathic notion that we can change our gender. The very definition of psychosis is a departure from reality. We are all asked to jettison reality for a fantasy notion that communicates the rejection of our Creator.
For me: No thank you! I'm not participating. All who do so take a huge step in their rejection of God.
God created us male and female and we come into life representing that reality. Rejecting that really is truly a "doctrine of demons." Count me out!
Anything of the Lord capture your heart from Scripture today? Share what moved you about him from your Bible reading today. I'd love to hear from you!
If you have someone you would like to receive these ruminations, send me their email address. I'm happy to add them to the list. If you are receiving this and would like to be removed from the list, just reply and let me know.
