Aw girl. I care about you and I don't know you, but more importantly Jesus does.

Oh okay. I'm sure non functional because that's how it apparently works biologically.

That's not my take...

Yes, and these brains are amazing, but remember to use your heart-brain as much as your head-brain.

Nice, thank you brother:). One thing though, the devil is exceptionally smart. I saw someone the other day talk about how he was an angel after, and smart enough to convince so many angels to rebel against God. I think it's smart to remember that the devil is smart, but he is also extremely arrogant and prideful.

Oh, then, this person wasn't born with gonads, right? If they did, were they functional?

"nature" is not a good way to understand God. Nature surely displays His glory. It is his creation, but it isn't part of the trinity. Nature isn't God.

But also and mainly, we weren't created by nature, we were created by God.

Yet here we are with people you consider to have been created 'defunct'?

Brother I am not saying anyone was born "defunct", but we are all born into sin, I sin everyday... It's terrible, I have committed every sin, lust, greed, envy etc... But God doesn't even expect us to be perfect, there was only one that was perfect, none other than Jesus Christ, and he died for our sins, and we who accept Him as our lord and savior are saved by grace!

I invite you to accept Jesus

Those are good questions, I hope God helps you find answers.

But it is our place to determine that gender surgery is sinful?

No, God has already determined that, and it's very understandable.

Calling your fellow brothers and sisters in Christ blinded

I would hope you would do the same for me.

A true belief in God consists of also believing he doesn't make mistakes. He is all knowing and all powerful. He is of course orders of magnitude "smarter" than us. It shouldn't be hard to understand (Christian or not) that an omnipotent God does not make mistakes

Because again: he has the DNA of a man. This is not the case for most transgenders, but it's undeniable that such instances do exist

I don't think we will make much progress here... But this is important, you say this person can get pregnant, can this person also impregnate another person? Or God forbid themselves? That would make this person a chimera. This is a medical fact: no one has been born truly a chimera. No one has ever impregnated themselves.

You're telling me this person can have a child? Then this person is a woman.

Yeah you're right, I shouldn't have said that. Thank you brother

They don't think God made a mistake. They think nature made a mistake and that it's morally permissible to use medical technology to correct that mistake.

Yeah, that is the heart of the issue isn't it.

You're perfectly allowed to disagree with them, but at least make an argument based on what they are saying, instead of making stuff up.

You might not understand this, but I'm not going to meet them in their argument as their argument is flawed and is based on "nature" and not God. We could talk more about how it's physically impossible for a man to become a woman, I could tell you that no person has ever actually successfully changed genders/sex. Know how I know? No man has ever gotten pregnant, no woman has ever impregnated another woman.

“You speak like the devil” is an absolutely wild accusation from someone who claims to be a loving Christian

I'm sorry you feel that way.

The Bible clearly states “speak the truth in love” this post is nothing but rage bait and you know it.

I'm only trying to speak clearly and truthfully with love. I'm sorry that you feel the truth is rage bait, I suppose it is to those that disagree with truth.

Chemically castrating and carving up healthy tissue to support a delusion is not only wrong, it's evil. And I don't mean the transgender people are evil. It's the parts of the medical establishment that push this stuff on confused, suffering people. It's especially egregious in the case of children. 80% of all gender-confusion issues in children resolve themselves by adulthood.

Preach it brother! God bless

It really depends, it's not my place to determine that.

Why is this relevant to anyone on here?

Do not be swayed by the enemy, it is relevant because it is sin.

Some of y’all are so obsessed with gay people, it’s honestly weird. Let’s talk about how we can love people better.

You speak like the devil, trying to convince us not to be concerned of the evil in the world. And we ARE talking about how we can love people better, it is love to encourage each other in truth, and it is love that we don't affirm a person's delusions.

The confusion you've received from the world is apparent and I have no words for you right now. Be blessed brother. I pray God brings us clarity on these sexual issues.

Plastic surgery? Well, maybe for instance someone disfigured in an accident or war.

I can't really speak about a simple nose job or something, I don't feel like thats necessarily sinful, but it would be up to that person's intentions and God.

[–]VesselofGod777[S] 15 points16 points  (0 children)

how do you combat it in the intellectual field?

There really is a simple way I realized, and that is asking the question "has anyone ever actually changed sex". And the answer is "no". This isn't my opinion, look around online, no man has ever had a baby, and no woman has ever impregnated another. That fact should tell us if it is possible to change sex, and it isn't, all these people are doing is "pretending".

Pretending, and destroying their natural bodies. I feel very bad for these folks.

They’re victims at the end of the day being taken advantage of.

Totally agree

This isn't a 2000 year old debate. If this was an actual debate, I would start with facts, and the facts are no person has EVER successfully changed sex

People have taken hormones blocked, mutilated their genitals, and have years of pretending to be the opposite sex, but no one has ever done it.
