I'm not even done with the video and I'm in tears I feel so validated I'm struggling with my relationship with God and as I believe the end times are near and it's so hard trying to be true to yourself and your beliefs when fellow Christans are literally scaring you to believe and and making you feel like your going crazy!
austen's somebody I'd like to have a beer with,cept, I quit drinkingI died 3 times in10 brain surgeries,the God Jesus who met me did not strike me as someone who'd forsake any of His! If you accept Him He accepts you! I recall All!you tube Colton Burpo, his story beats mine;-) I thought what a great movie I'll make! Colton "Heaven is For Real" beat me to it!
in heaven was love like NOTHING ON earth.like Moses, I could not look on His face or I'd be blind now! here in Thailand 3rd gender is highest in the world .
I’m sorry, I’m not even done with the video and I’ve already found a few fallacies in their argument. Trans people are still people, and are still wanted by God, but they have to be born again.
Please don't listen to what is said in this video. Transgenderism goes against God, and the reality that He has clearly made. God created humans male and female. He made a distinction between them. He made males with specific body parts and DNA, then made women with different features, and an ability to reproduce. The distinction wasn't based on their self perception. Transgenderism, however, seems to suggest that the difference is based on one's perception. If you think a person with body parts and DNA of a man can be a woman can actually be a woman, then you don't agree that the distinction is based on body parts and DNA. So what is the distinction based on? What does it mean for a man to become a woman if you think that can happen? What happens? Well, the answer seems simple. The only thing that has changed is the person's self perception and their ideas. But in that case, what's stopping an adult from saying they're a baby? Who would you be to deny that they're a baby? If you think things can just be something based on how they feel, then what's stopping me from saying a phone is a tree? We are in no place to define reality. Only God has control over reality, and He has clearly made the reality of man and woman. A person can't decide one day to be a different gender. If you want to suggest that being a certain gender is based solely on the way someone thinks, then what does it even mean to be that gender? If you think perception is the only factor, then what does it mean to be a man? What does it mean to be a woman? If you say anybody can decide for themselves what it means for them to be a woman, then the meaning of woman falls apart. If you think being a woman is based on one's own views, then that suggests that anybody can define the word for themselves, leaving it to mean anything, and therefore nothing. So let me ask you this: what is a woman?
You talked of being able to bring our experiences to the table, I had a good and useful experience at a vestry meeting because I lived both genders. each was expressing how they were approaching an issue, and each felt criticized by the other, I was able to show that one was expressing how they felt on the issue and the other was asking a question. It came out good thanks be to God

Rom 1:18 For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who hold the truth in unrighteousness; Rom 1:19 Because that which may be known of God is manifest in them; for God hath shewed it unto them. Rom 1:20 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: Rom 1:21 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. Rom 1:22 Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools, Rom 1:23 And changed the glory of the uncorruptible God into an image made like to corruptible man, and to birds, and fourfooted beasts, and creeping things. Rom 1:24 Wherefore God also gave them up to uncleanness through the lusts of their own hearts, to dishonour their own bodies between themselves: Rom 1:25 Who changed the truth of God into a lie, and worshipped and served the creature more than the Creator, who is blessed for ever. Amen.

When you accept Christ into your life, you die to yourself and is raised up in Christ's identity. Your identity is no longer in anything earthly or worldly, but in the identity of Christ. So you strive to live like Christ by getting in the word daily.
you're correct. I'm transsexual myself, but my identity is in Christ, not my gender. Being trans isn't "who I am" I only see it as just a medical hurdle. My identity is in Christ because He is who saves me.
@@a.kamileon Yes being trans is not who we are. We are in christ and in order to fully be in Christ we have to be who we are within and present that outside and not hide it.
@@kateofone “We are in Christ and in order to fully be in Christ, we have to be who we are within and present that to the outside world and not hide it.” Your statement is in direct contradiction with what the Bible says! 1. John 3:30 He (Christ) must become greater and greater, and I must become less and less. 2. Galatians 2:20-21 I have been crucified with Christ and I no longer live, but Christ lives in me. The life I now live in the body, I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave himself for me. I do not set aside the grace of God, for if righteousness could be gained through the law, Christ died for nothing! 3. 1 Corinthians 15:31 I protest by your rejoicing which I have in Christ Jesus our Lord, I die daily. 4. Galatians 5:24-25 Those who belong to Christ Jesus have nailed the passions and desires of their sinful nature to his cross and crucified them there. Since we are living by the Spirit, let us follow the Spirit’s leading in every part of our lives.
I’m a transvestite, ex/trans and sometime non-binary person, I also try to live by Jesus’ example (amongst other spiritual leaders). I’m not a Christian but I do read the bible and have studied it at university level. I’m not sure about the Catholic or other organised religious position on this but I will say that a) I don’t believe that being an apostle makes one infallible, and I certainly don’t think that being elected pope by cardinals imbues one with any more access to God’s inner thoughts (if an entity like God can even have thoughts!). Personally if I considered myself a Christian I would put a lot more store in the actions of the living god than in his followers’ interpretations. The quotations y’all use are incredibly unspecific and seem to be in contrast with Jesus’ message and actions. Why would he defend an adulterer from stoning if the intention of God was to put all sinners to death as Paul states? Seems to me that evangelicals are Paulists not Christians. They follow the word of Paul and not Jesus. Jesus preached a message of tolerance and love and forgiveness. Paul by the time of Romans was an elderly narcicist curmudgeon. For why Jesus accepted eunuchs and more trans positive readings of old and New Testament verse see here: www.hrc.org/resources/what-does-the-bible-say-about-transgender-people

Also, if God wanted to make such a distinction between male and female, why did he create intersex people? Transgender people are not dissimilar from intersex people, it's just that our MEDICAL condition is in our brains, not our pants.
I want everyone to know in these comments that spreading hatred and violence is not what God wants. Please remember that God loves all. God is supposed to be good and forgiving. Whether you believe these things are sinful or not it is not your decision to condemn others. Your words only bring damage to people, human beings with beautiful lives that you cant even imagine, and that hatred only reflects upon yourself. Choose acceptance, choose love.
The actual scripture in Hebrew translates to Genesis saying “coat of many colours” and Samuel 2 saying “garment of many colours”. Do with this information as you will and may God find his way into the hearts of all ❤️🙏🏽
AMEN ! 1) NOT ONE bible passage he mentioned is relevant to his arguement at all. 2) they are saying "god made a mistake" - what needs to be taught is that the demonic realm is super active, aLL of the new testament was warning against the demonic realm... MOST of Jesus healings was Jesus saying "demon get out" and the person being restored.. I truely believe most mental illnesses are not a sickness of the brain, but (as the bible tells us) a demon talking to somebody.. telling them to end their life.. telling them to be sad.. telling them to be confused about their gender.. Demons TORMENT people.. these people are TORMENTED... - also these people are completely obsessed with self which totally goes against the Christian Bible.. we are taught clearly not to be obsessed with physical appearance etc.. - Plus ALL of the biblical passages that address the topic.. if God made you a man, you are aa man, and saying God got it wrong is terribly offensive and telling God he was wrong and rejecting His choice is wrong too. so many passages completely twisted
I am transgender and I don't think I could ever be Christian again for many reasons but I am glad people like you are trying to educate Christians on these topics.
That’s because you’ve chosen the devil to rule your life. You can’t live the life of a sick, pervert and unnatural sexual lifestyle and even be a Christian. You can’t even be a real person living a fake life.
I genuinely hope you are doing well wherever you may be in life at this moment. I apologize for the Christians who made you feel ostracized so badly that you turned away from the church. My prayer is that you still believe in God and Jesus Christ, and you know that he sacrificed himself so that we may be saved the debt of all our sins. Whatever you choose to do with your life is Gods gift to you, all he asks is that you acknowledge the ransom paid by the blood of Christ. If you do that you’ll be forgiven and you will receive the gift of everlasting life. I say all of this as someone who does believe that LGBTQ lifestyles are sinful, but recognizes I am a sinner myself. My name is written no clearer into the Book of Life than any other person who chooses to believe, including yourself and the whole community of people who live the way you do. If you take nothing else away from this paragraph please just always remember (no matter what another human tells you): JESUS LOVES YOU ❤️🙏🏽
The early argument made was that dominion does not mean to "rule' but rather "create". That the naming of the animals was part of creation. And that to extent our role in creation we should extend beyond what God made (male and female) into even more expressions of humanity. This is probably the most honest part of the lecture and it reveals the real hermeneutic. the Bible is very clear on its terminology in Genesis 1 and 2. Dominion means to rule over. It does not mean to create even if a professor that you really like wants to reinvent the meaning and intent of the world. From the context it is clear, mankind is the creation that rules the world. No animal was given the dominion of earth. Next it was argued that the job of naming the animals is equivalent to creating the animals. And it was further argued that God intend us to expand his creation by reinventing what a man or a woman is. To say that mankind should reinvent what a man or a woman is because man is the creator is far closer to humanism than to a Christian worldview. While God gives man responsibilities he has not asked man to re-create what he has already made. Inventing categories of humans based on internal feelings is an extremely limited scope no matter how often people claim it isn't. All of the gender expressions are deeply rooted in their relationship to male or female. A real application of this passage would allow people to identify as animals or as inanimate objects. Furthermore how does it expand the creation to identify as something that exists in the creation that you are not biologically. If God made a tree, does it expand the creation for a dog to behave as a tree when it is in fact a dog? In the same logic, how is the creation enhanced when a person designed as a man, decided to behave as woman, something God already created? The passage clearly teaches that there are only two kinds of people. The speaker desperately, by her own admission, wants the passage not to say what it clearly does in fact say. Such desires must be brought into submission of the spirit of God not the driving force of changing the intended meaning of the text.
Very well explained. I feel that “dominion” meant we would be smarter and could therefore rule and conquer any animal if we put our mind to it. We could also use animals without feeling bad, such as riding horses or taking care of the field. Not making yourself into a trans. God is not the author of confusion.
The authors of the bible sure were since they repeatedly contradict themselves. Also you’re only calling Austen a she because he openly talked about his sexual transformation - defy you to say you would have guessed without him saying so. Don’t forget you can’t bear false witness ;)
This heresy is leading people estray. I understand much of why you say what you are saying but taking the word of God and molding, twisting it, conforming it to worldly thoughts. Twisting God's word to affirm sin is heartbreaking. God gave men and women different roles and he did it for a reason...when humans pervert that ie "women belong in the kitchen..." statements, these are harmful human stereotypes that are used to reinforce role extremes and perversion. There are exceptions of the roles of men and women such as Deborah to name one. In reference to the discussion of name giving in relation to identity, God is the one giving new names/identity, not ourselves giving ourselves new names/identity. When applying this to gender identity this is wrong...we do not decide our identity when we accept Jesus. When your identity is ROOTED in Jesus you will NEVER have an identity crisis again. The eunuch argument is egregious. Eunuch were made that way do to human sin...God's grace covers the sin done to them. I am so saddened by what you are teaching. I have no hate for LGBTQ+ people. I do hate that you take the word and make it so sin is ok. Do not make the bible embrace sin just for your own affirmation. I will continue to pray for you and the people you preach to. God help them for they no not what they do.
I had to finally stop watching when he got to the part about Adam being a co-creator with God, in creating the animals. In Genesis2:19 it says that “God brought them (the animals that GOD had already created) and let Adam NAME them.” Am I missing something here? Yes, God Loves everyone and so do I, however …Leviticus 18:1, 2 and 22
Do you understand the context of the book's purpose from which these are found? Do you know what Leviticus's purpose is? Please research the fundamental purpose of the book itself and THEN, through that lens, understand what Leviticus is telling us. Also, take into account that alot of what Leviticus considers "kosher" isn't exactly relevant to us int he New Covenant through Christ... it's not just food laws.
The same point is made in the new testament as well though. I'm not trying to be rude, I know that's upsetting to hear. Whatever you're going through I'm sorry to hear it, but God can meet you where you are, wherever you are and bring you into the light. Call on His name friend.
It is so beyond blasphemous to take God's word and twist it like this. Teach love at your church sure, but this is not love, this is teaching narcissism and blatant misreading of Bible verses.

Right, they are loved by Christ but this is not biblical…..at all! This only works for those that do not know the word of God! With the Spirit revealing
As a Christian, you should not let anyone cause you to be "lukewarm" in your beliefs. Do not conform your language to validate another's ideology. Pray for those who are being deceived and misguided, while trying to overcome the temptation of the flesh. Remember, Jesus came to "fulfill" the Law and Prophecies of the Old Testament, not to dismantle them! Jesus clearly states that we can't have it both ways. It is for us to repent, wash sin away with baptism in Christ, and follow the DIFFICULT path of turning away from our sinful nature. The LGBTQ+ Ideological movement is a "roaring lion"... 1 Peter 5:8 "Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion, walketh about, seeking whom he may devour." There is nothing subtle, about a roaring lion.... Leviticus 18: 22Thou shalt not lie with mankind, as with womankind: it is abomination. 23Neither shalt thou lie with any beast to defile thyself therewith: neither shall any woman stand before a beast to lie down thereto: it is confusion. Deuteronomy 22:5 "The woman shall not wear that which pertaineth unto a man, neither shall a man put on a woman's garment: for all that do so are abomination unto the LORD thy God." Matthew 7: 13-23 13“Enter by the narrow gate; for wide is the gate and broad is the way that leads to destruction, and there are many who go in by it. 14[c]Because narrow is the gate and [d] DIFFICULT is the way which leads to life, and there are few who find it. 15“Beware of false prophets, who come to you in sheep’s clothing, but inwardly they are ravenous wolves. 16You will know them by their fruits. Do men gather grapes from thornbushes or figs from thistles? 17Even so, every good tree bears good fruit, but a bad tree bears bad fruit. 18A good tree cannot bear bad fruit, nor can a bad tree bear good fruit. 19Every tree that does not bear good fruit is cut down and thrown into the fire. 20Therefore by their fruits you will know them. 21“Not everyone who says to Me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ shall enter the kingdom of heaven, but he who does the will of My Father in heaven. 22Many will say to Me in that day, ‘Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in Your name, cast out demons in Your name, and done many wonders in Your name?’ 23And then I will declare to them, ‘I never knew you; depart from Me, you who practice lawlessness!’ Revelations 3: 15I know thy works, that thou art neither cold nor hot: I would thou wert cold or hot. 16So then because thou art lukewarm, and neither cold nor hot, I will spue thee out of my mouth. 17Because thou sayest, I am rich, and increased with goods, and have need of nothing; and knowest not that thou art wretched, and miserable, and poor, and blind, and naked: 18I counsel thee to buy of me gold tried in the fire, that thou mayest be rich; and white raiment, that thou mayest be clothed, and that the shame of thy nakedness do not appear; and anoint thine eyes with eyesalve, that thou mayest see. 19As many as I love, I rebuke and chasten: be zealous therefore, and repent. 20Behold, I stand at the door, and knock: if any man hear my voice, and open the door, I will come in to him, and will sup with him, and he with me. 21To him that overcometh will I grant to sit with me in my throne, even as I also overcame, and am set down with my Father in his throne. 22He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches. God is waiting for us to turn away from sin and follow the path of the one he sent to be our example, guide, advocate, judge and eventual King! You are expected to do this before death comes "like a thief in the night"!
I'm watching this video because I'm 73 Years old and Christian and I'm just trying to understand. Some of what Austen said was simply wrong though. First thing I saw wrong was about eunuchs and medical castration. This was not done for the reason Austen mentioned, such as punishment. It was done to prevent the rape of women. Medical castration is done in prisons to rapists and pedophiles, sometimes at their own request, to prevent erection in males who use their genital as a weapon against women or children. Some of them thing it may also diminish the desire. My personal belief is that the soul is genderless. There's no gender in heaven (I believe that in the afterlife or beforelife is as spirits that have no gender) and therefore if you remember that condition of your soul, then you would have what I have heard called gender dysphoria. However, the sole purpose of the gender differences in the first place is procreation, and that's the only thing that bothers me. The declining birth rate is a problem. But if transpeople try and change the way we think of the sexes as "people who can give birth" or "menstruate", that's a problem too. Transpeople want to validate their identity at the expense of the identity of everyone. I'm not a hater, but I still don't understand why all this is even necessary. You can change yourself but you can't change the world.

Their mind is set on earthly things. 1Co 1:18 For the preaching of the cross is to them that perish foolishness; but unto us which are saved it is the power of God. 2Th 2:10 And with all deceivableness of unrighteousness in them that perish; because they received not the love of the truth, that they might be saved.2Th 2:11 And for this cause God shall send them strong delusion, that they should believe a lie:2Th 2:12 That they all might be damned who believed not the truth, but had pleasure in unrighteousness. Jhn 3:16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.Jhn 3:17 For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved.Jhn 3:18 He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God.Jhn 3:19 And this is the condemnation, that light is come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil.Jhn 3:20 For every one that doeth evil hateth the light, neither cometh to the light, lest his deeds should be reproved.Jhn 3:21 But he that doeth truth cometh to the light, that his deeds may be made manifest, that they are wrought in God. 1Th 5:1 But of the times and the seasons, brethren, ye have no need that I write unto you.1Th 5:2 For yourselves know perfectly that the day of the Lord so cometh as a thief in the night.1Th 5:3 For when they shall say, Peace and safety; then sudden destruction cometh upon them, as travail upon a woman with child; and they shall not escape.1Th 5:4 But ye, brethren, are not in darkness, that that day should overtake you as a thief.1Th 5:5 Ye are all the children of light, and the children of the day: we are not of the night, nor of darkness.1Th 5:6 Therefore let us not sleep, as do others; but let us watch and be sober.1Th 5:7 For they that sleep sleep in the night; and they that be drunken are drunken in the night.1Th 5:8 But let us, who are of the day, be sober, putting on the breastplate of faith and love; and for an helmet, the hope of salvation. 1Pe 4:15 But let none of you suffer as a murderer, or as a thief, or as an evildoer, or as a busybody in other men's matters. 1Pe 4:16 Yet if any man suffer as a Christian, let him not be ashamed; but let him glorify God on this behalf. 1Pe 4:17 For the time is come that judgment must begin at the house of God: and if it first begin at us, what shall the end be of them that obey not the gospel of God? 1Pe 4:18 And if the righteous scarcely be saved, where shall the ungodly and the sinner appear? 1Pe 4:19 Wherefore let them that suffer according to the will of God commit the keeping of their souls to him in well doing, as unto a faithful Creator.
No, God made you a certain gender. Then you decided to call yourself no gender. Tell me, what does it mean to be gender nonconforming? Do you just think you're not either gender? What does that even mean? You're clearly one gender, considering that's how you were born, and it's clear from the distinctions God made between genders. You can't just deny the truth and say that you aren't something when you are that thing. You can tell me all you want that a person with 2 arms has only 1 arm, but that doesn't suddenly make that person have 1 arm. They still have 2 arms. You can't just decide reality because of how you feel. You need to get past the way that you feel and accept the reality, despite how you feel about it. An addict doesn't want to let their addiction go, but it shows obedience and maturity for them to let go of that addiction.
@@victorkifyak6858 Before you start firing at people, do you research because you don't even know what you're talking about! You don't even know what gender-nonconforming means. I never said I was "of no gender", so please get off of my comment if you have nothing constructive to say to me and don't make yourself look foolish acting as if you know what you're talking about when you really don't! Okay? If I need someone preaching at me, then I'll go to church for that. Now leave me alone!!!!
Oh, I'm sorry. I'm trying to be constructive. I'm sorry I didn't come off that way. I'd like you to improve from your flawed ideas. Could you explain what gender nonconforming means? You're telling me I don't know what it means, so it'd be nice to get a definition from you. From my brief research, I've found that it means to not conform to what is generally attributed to either gender. Correct me if I'm wrong. And actually correct me, please. Don't just tell me I'm wrong and not give a definition.
Question, if we took away surgery and all the trans wanted to have a baby, how would they procreate without cheating on their spouse? Unless their spouses are also a trans. Humanity would eventually end. Another thing, humans aren’t cattle, or fowl, or a creeping thing, so God wasn’t talking about having dominion man having dominion over man.
They would still be able to have a child by many ways 1. The spouse is ok with them having a child 2. The spouse and the trans person have a child themselves (assuming they haven’t gotten bottom surgery or have prepared for it) 3. They adopt
@@saltycombat6957 my example was meant to be without actually having any medical interventions or adoptions. If we’re talking about Christians, how can trans procreate with the same genitals? Also, the Bible says the bed should be undefiled. So allowing your spouse to sleep with someone else is not an honorable marriage in my opinion.
There aren't enough trans people on earth to affect the population, and acceptance of trans people won't cause us to overwhelm the population. Gender dysphoria isn't a contagious condition, and kids being convinced they're trans when they aren't is extremely uncommon. Is a cis woman still a "real" Woman if she has a hysterectomy? Is a cis man still a "real" man if he has an orchiectomy? Cis people have these procedures done for various medical emergencies. Gender dysphoria that is causing suicidal ideation is a medical emergency that these same procedures help with. Humans are over populated, so less babies for a few generations would be really good for us.
Omg wow this was amazing. I’ve been researching and preying a little bit about this and I do believe it is ok to be Christian and trans, like there’s nothing wrong about it but then my head to the matthew 16 24 so can someone help with this verse please
Hi Daniel! People argue that being Christian comes with suffering. But Jesus never endorses oppression. In order for suffering to be Christ-like, it must be redemptive. I think what is important here is that Jesus calls us to leave our lifestyle of sin and to follow him. However, I don’t believe this would apply to you regarding being trans because that’s not something you have to redeem from. I hope this makes sense! :)
In what way is turning from being trans not redemptive? You're turning away from sin. God created humans male and female. We aren't in any place to deny the reality God put in place. God made a distinction between the genders, and for people to call themselves a different gender is to deny the reality God put in place and to suggest that the distinction God made doesn't apply. To claim to be trans is to deny the truth that God has given to us. What is gender based on according to your ideology? Self perception? Well, in that case, who's stopping an adult from calling themself a baby? Who's stopping a person with two arms from identifying as someone with one arm? There is a reality in place, and my heart goes out to the people who have gender dysphoria. But you must realize, people struggle with sins. There are people who struggle with addictions. This isn't much different. I know it may feel uncomfortable, but the solution isn't to abandon truth.
Waiiiit, had to stop at about ten minutes in... looking forward to this, expecting to really appreciate it over all, but are you saying that b/c gay people are helping to raise children they are contributing to the "nurturing" of people being trans?? B/c I would most def disagree with that... for several reasons...
hi, i was kind of confused there too, but from how i see it, i think he's trying to say that in a biological/historical standpoint, it might have been helpful to have transgender people within the community help take care of children that were not biologically their own (because, like he said, the more adults there are taking care of the children, the better off they are). Then, if the children grew up well under a good number of adults, then they would grow up and later pass on good genes because they were raised well. I don't know too much about biology, and I am in no way saying that my interpretation is correct, but i do feel like this may be what Hartke was trying to say
I think they're talking about the existence of TERFs, Trans-Exclusionary Radical Feminists. The general stereotype of a TERF is a butch lesbian cisgender female that believes and wishes to preserve gender conformity.
generally if they raised a kid the kid would probably feel pressured to be cisgender rather than explore or embrace any transgender thoughts or feelings
Please don't listen to what is said in this video. Transgenderism goes against God, and the reality that He has clearly made. God created humans male and female. He made a distinction between them. He made males with specific body parts and DNA, then made women with different features, and an ability to reproduce. The distinction wasn't based on their self perception. Transgenderism, however, seems to suggest that the difference is based on one's perception. If you think a person with body parts and DNA of a man can be a woman can actually be a woman, then you don't agree that the distinction is based on body parts and DNA. So what is the distinction based on? What does it mean for a man to become a woman if you think that can happen? What happens? Well, the answer seems simple. The only thing that has changed is the person's self perception and their ideas. But in that case, what's stopping an adult from saying they're a baby? Who would you be to deny that they're a baby? If you think things can just be something based on how they feel, then what's stopping me from saying a phone is a tree? We are in no place to define reality. Only God has control over reality, and He has clearly made the reality of man and woman. A person can't decide one day to be a different gender. If you want to suggest that being a certain gender is based solely on the way someone thinks, then what does it even mean to be that gender? If you think perception is the only factor, then what does it mean to be a man? What does it mean to be a woman? If you say anybody can decide for themselves what it means for them to be a woman, then the meaning of woman falls apart. If you think being a woman is based on one's own views, then that suggests that anybody can define the word for themselves, leaving it to mean anything, and therefore nothing. So let me ask you this: what is a woman?
Be fruitful and multiply. You going to totally ignore that. What it don't fit your narrative. Your agenda. I guess you will ignore this also. Deuteronomy 23:17 [17]There shall be no whore of the daughters of Israel, nor a sodomite of the sons of Israel. What does the Bible say about taking away from the word of God. Revelation 22:18-19 [18]For I testify unto every man that heareth the words of the prophecy of this book, If any man shall add unto these things, God shall add unto him the plagues that are written in this book: [19]And if any man shall take away from the words of the book of this prophecy, God shall take away his part out of the book of life, and out of the holy city, and from the things which are written in this book. And what you think and feel has no significance in God's words. Isaiah 55:7-8 [7]Let the wicked forsake his way, and the unrighteous man his thoughts: and let him return unto the LORD, and he will have mercy upon him; and to our God, for he will abundantly pardon. [8]For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways, saith the LORD.
Also if you studied the Torah like you imply that you do, you would also know when you read that the literal translation is that God gave dominion to Adam over the animal, which could also be translated as that he gave man intellect to control his own body. When Paul said there is no male or female it’s about that as a Christian, you aren’t supposed to be filter blinded with how you view your brothers and sisters in Christ as well as your brethren of the earth. You are perverting the words of God
AMEN ! 1) NOT ONE bible passage he mentioned is relevant to his arguement at all. 2) they are saying "god made a mistake" - what needs to be taught is that the demonic realm is super active, aLL of the new testament was warning against the demonic realm... MOST of Jesus healings was Jesus saying "demon get out" and the person being restored.. I truely believe most mental illnesses are not a sickness of the brain, but (as the bible tells us) a demon talking to somebody.. telling them to end their life.. telling them to be sad.. telling them to be confused about their gender.. Demons TORMENT people.. these people are TORMENTED... - also these people are completely obsessed with self which totally goes against the Christian Bible.. we are taught clearly not to be obsessed with physical appearance etc.. - Plus ALL of the biblical passages that address the topic.. if God made you a man, you are aa man, and saying God got it wrong is terribly offensive and telling God he was wrong and rejecting His choice is wrong too. so many passages completely twisted
You make some good points towards the end when you speak of the resurrection body and of standing in the middle. God made us the way we are, and he loves us to bits. Any theology of sexuality should start here.
Do not be confused what other people tell you it is what the lord has said and has been written that is important because it was he that created us he is the lord that gave us life and a sole and a gender male / female he gave us this world to live in to share the god Heavenly Father is the law and him law is written in the bible and the most important law is in the bible are the 10 commandments the rest is the bible of his word and is not to be written or changed in anyway by anyone but him h the lord has told of his new heaven that he has already made for you and has said who may enter it and who may not enter it that is not our choice but his as the lord law is strict for he is our king and our choice who wish to make it there’s to be in his or her life who lives but his law the Heavenly Father and not by anyone else who might think they can change it the way they want it for they will not be aloud in the gates on his now heaven the lord has spoken and put in words amen
Deu 22:5 The woman shall not wear that which pertaineth unto a man, neither shall a man put on a woman's garment: for all that do so are ABOMINATION unto the LORD thy God. When something is an ABOMINATION unto God himself, how can that be the law of Moses?

@@frogtownroad9104There is only one God, and one revelation for all mankind. V Rom 1:26 For this cause God gave them up unto vile affections: for even their women did change the natural use into that which is against nature:Rom 1:27 And likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust one toward another; men with men working that which is unseemly, and receiving in themselves that recompence of their error which was meet. Rom 1:28 And even as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge, God gave them over to a reprobate mind, to do those things which are not convenient.
Imagine going into Bible study with the intent of finding a way to justify your own world view. You're missing the whole point. God isn't a reflection of your lust
İam a trans . And iam facing so much trouble around my community . My dad really hates me if I dressed up as a female. So i always remain like a boy tho, to adjust or fit in the society'. I always wanted to be away confusing and sad life. .... Sometimes i hated myself for being not able to fit in. I stop praying to GOd... :( ... İam so lost
I wrote something here, but the Lord made erase it. Perhaps he wanted me to speak to you. Today God has entered your life and heard your problem. He wants to show you his love. Where can I contact you, and speak to you? You have facebook?
So much wrong with the definitions and words peak used. Science doesn't support so much being taught here. Regardless of that, God loves each of us equally and tells us to love others as we would want to be loved. We are also tasked to do what is right and true which is often not the same as doing what makes us feel good. God is truth AND love.
He dresses the way he dresses because that's how he feels the most comfortable. Society is what labels things as mens clothes or womans clothes but that doesn't mean they are the only people who can wear said clothes. If you listen to the video he is actually talking about how the stereotypical men or womens clothes are constantly changing. Heels were originally created for men and the Romans wore skirts. Those items are now typically worn by women. So he's saying it's difficult to completely go by or obey that because clothing and style is constantly changing
I don’t agree with this I respect and love trans people .. But this is twisting and bending of the scripture to make it sound like what you want to hear. God is God of order. I feel like he doesn’t included biblical text that argues what he’s preaching. Just my opinion
She forgot to mention all of the scriptures where God doesn’t approve of homosexuality among other things. The only person that gets to be a trans should be the one’s born with both parts. Once they get older, they should be able to choose one and remove the other. That’s my opinion. But they could also keep both and find someone to accept them or something.
You mean the Mosaic laws that don't apply to Christians? Or are you talking Paul's morality "laws"? For that matter, do you insist women have long hair and men wear robes with tassels? Beware the yeast of the Pharisees. They were known for enforcing rules even if it caused suffering.
This is so misguided. God gave us free will, we make or choices good or bad, right or wrong. Saying God made you trans is like saying God made you afflicted, that's not how it works. You don't understand the Bible or the Spiritual at all, go back to scripture.
Saying God made me trans is like saying God made me right handed. It can't be proved biologically but that doesn't change the fact I'm transgender. God intended I should be a girl but this world defies God all the time. It created a male body.
Gender dysphoria is a medical condition for which the cure is transition. Being trans is not a choice. God has afflicted humans with countless diseases, some of which have no cure and afflict children. Without saying, "He works in mysterious ways we shouldn't question." How do you account for every child who has ever died of cancer, or had to live their whole life with a disability?
Depends on what you mean by gender. God created the idea of gender, arguably, and the concepts of masculinity and femininity. I'd be careful with labels. What I do know is that YHWH always uses the male pronoun. I am going to call Him by that.
I don't know what gender you were born as. Based on the name, I would think male. I'd like to ask, what does it mean to be non-binary? If you were born (I'm assuming, forgive me if I'm wrong) a male, then what changed to let you become "non-binary"? God created humans male and female. There weren't other genders created. Otherwise, I would think they'd be mentioned, but there are no other genders mentioned at all. There are multiple verses about the roles of both genders, and yet nothing about any others. I'd think that'd be very important to add. So, with being a male, how could you decide to be "non-binary"? Well, I'd think you just decided that you were. But what does that mean? What does it mean to you to not be either gender? These ideas people have today about gender go against the reality that God has made clear for us. If you think a person who has the body parts and DNA of a male can be a female at some point, then you'd say it isn't based on the body parts and DNA. If you think gender is simply based on our perception, then what's stopping an adult from saying he's a baby? Who would you be to deny him, if you think we can decide things like that based on our ideas alone? Likewise, if you think a man can be a woman, even with the body parts and DNA of a man, and you believe they're actually a woman, then it's all based on our perception. In that case, however, the meaning of woman falls apart, as well as man. If it's based only on our own perception, then someone could say that a woman is a type of car, and another person could say it's a feeling, and yet another could say it's a company, and on and on. If anyone is free to define what a woman is, then it comes to mean nothing. But we can't define for ourselves what a woman is. God has made the distinction for us, and we must follow. Likewise, if you think you're no longer any gender, then what does it even mean to be a gender? If you think a person can just decide that they're no longer any gender, then that suggests that anybody can just decide to be anything. That suggests this isn't based in some physical reality, but only on our thoughts, and that we can really just decide to be anything. But that's not the case. God has made the reality clear, and we need to follow it.
As a matter of fact, I did watch the video. I still don't know what it means to be non-binary. Perhaps you could explain for me, and let me know what exactly it means. Maybe the video didn't do a good enough job explaining that. I'd like to hear what you have to say.
@@victorkifyak6858 it’s not a decision you don’t choose to be non binary or trans in general, you just are, it can take a lot of introspection to understand and recognize that but i didn’t choose to be non-binary, i just am if i could choose i wouldn’t be, the only choices that trans people make in relation to gender identity is to share it with the people around them and the world and socially and maybe medically transition. medical transition even sometimes isn’t really a choice. biological sex is definitely a thing but it’s a lot more complicated than you might think, and it isn’t binary, the Bible even supports that as God made Adam initially as a hermaphrodite, neither male nor female, all fetuses start out as hermaphrodites then throughout the gestation process we often take on primary/secondary sex characteristics and “gain” our biological sex, but those just indicate your biological sex, and if you try to classify anybody as strictly male or strictly female you often run into contradicting information regardless of what metric you use to classify sex gender is a social construct, trans people have been around for forever you can find them all throughout history and cultures, multiple different cultures have had more than two genders for thousands of years if we as Christians are to minister to those that don’t know God we should always come from a place of love, and understanding and i believe you can’t really do that unless you have all available information both from the Bible and from the study of the world that God created for us, we are called to be separate from the world as our home is in Heaven but we shouldn’t be separated from it, the world is beautiful and broken, if we don’t understand the difference between the two we cannot expect non believers to. i didn’t choose to be non-binary, and i don’t define what that or what womanhood or manhood is, i just experience it, so to ask me to describe what it is in any meaningful way that you would understand because my experience is unique to me, that’s what makes us human, that’s why God made us the way He did. God didn’t make a mistake when he made me or any other queer person, we are not rebelling against Him, we are just living the lives that He gave us, and trying to live truthfully as He has called all of us to.
I find it interesting that I asked what it means to be non-binary, and the answer I got is that you're non-binary, not actually an answer. God created us clearly male and clearly female. There weren't any other genders mentioned. That'd be something very important to mention if there were other genders. You see, in making the distinction, there is now an actual difference. We're in no place to decide what that difference is. God already has determined what the difference is. Now people today want to pervert the reality God has made clear to us. People want to say that a person's own self perception can define reality. Tell me, if a person has 2 arms, but he identifies as someone with 1 arm, does he now have 1 arm? No, he still has 2 arms. He's just saying that he has 1 arm, but in fact, that hasn't changed that he has 2 arms. Likewise, people can't decide reality because of how they feel in saying what gender they are. An adult who identifies as a baby is still an adult. I hear this a lot as well, how people try to claim that transgenderism is a solution, and that gender dysphoria is a real problem. Yes, I agree. I feel sorry for people who have gender dysphoria. I also feel bad for people who have addictions. See, though, the solution isn't to continue in your addiction. It can be hard to get past sin, but you have to do it anyway. I think the fact that you can't tell me what it means to be non-binary is very telling. According to your logic, it would seem that anyone can decide what it means to be a certain gender. In that case, one person could say a woman is a shoe, while another person says it's a type of chocolate, while yet another person says it's another word for a tree. If anyone can define the word, then the word means nothing. To say that anyone can define what it means to be a man or a woman based on how they feel is to go against the truth God put in place. We're also told many times about how deceptive our hearts can be. I feel sorry for people who have gender dysphoria. I imagine that it's a very hard thing. But it can be difficult to get past sin. The solution is never to embrace sin.
Transgenderism remains a wholly incoherent worldview. One in which people confuse gender roles and norms with gender itself. One in which they insist others are incorrect in using terms like "man" or "woman" while being unable to provide objective definitions for these terms themselves. And one in which they frequently equate disagreement with hate, which is not only illogical but dangerous.
If you are transgender fine. If you are transgender and homosexual. Repent... 🕊 2 kings 9:32-34 Mathew 19:12 A eunuch is fancy bible term to describe a transsexual. The word trans-gender is invalid since you identify with the gender between your ears. Transsexual describes a person who's gender is legit but the sex below the waste doesn't align. Dont be to fluid with queerology and the lesbian and gay community... Being straight is definitely in the bible;)
Being transgender is also not biblical. What does it mean for a man to identify as a woman? What exactly does that person identify as? Can a person with two arms identify as a person with one arm? Well, I guess they could say that, but they would still have two arms. Likewise, someone can call themselves a different gender, but that doesn't change their gender. We aren't in any place to change the reality God put in place. We can't just say something is the case and have that thing be the case. An adult who calls himself a baby doesn't become a baby. God put a distinction in place between males and females. We're not in a place to decide for ourselves what that distinction is. God has made the distinction, and we shouldn't go against it.
Foreigner's and eunuchs being 'joined to the Lord' is redemption in Him. Apparently the monument comes with qualifications. Keeping, choosing, holding.
don't believe lies; first of all read the bible, educate yourselves but with the word of God, the true one; listen to the God of the bible, please trust and obey only the true God; do not try to mold God to his preferences, because you are creating a false god; God is clear in his word, and I don't hate people, I love them, that's why I want them to find out the truth, read the scriptures; do not be carried away by your wishes; seek the will of God; I love you, and I don't want you to go to hell for believing the words of foolish and wicked men; repent as much as you can, seek God and his will, Jesus can cleanse his sins, and cleanse them from all filth and evil, believe in his name and make him Lord of his lives; repent while you find time; remember that Jesus said that you had to die to yourself, take up your cross and follow Jesus; It is going to be difficult but remember that Jesus gave everything, even his own life out of love for us, there is no greater love than that of God; Please read the Bible, listen to God, believe him, and obey and repent.
Hey, fellow Christian here, I would simply like to point out that being LGBT isn’t necessarily a choice. I myself am LGBT, and I didn’t want to be. I tried extraordinarily hard not to be if that makes sense. I went through a very long period of simply hating myself because of it, and I thought God must have felt the same. Of course, I was forgetting that God loves all of his children, and I know for a fact I am one of His children because I asked for Him to forgive me of my sins, and come into my life, as we all have. It is really difficult being LGBT and Christian, but mostly because of the hate I see going back and forth. The church is not supposed to be a courthouse, it is supposed to be a hospital, where those who need can go there to find healing and grace. Perhaps I simply want to add that God still loves, even if someone were LGBT. They are His creation, and we all know that He loves his children without fail. But yes, it is important to read God’s word for yourself. There is no lie there.

It´s "better" to cover the sausage with a skirt (originally a male outfit) than with pants. It´s easier to see your sausage through the pants. The dress is originally both male and female. The pants and the suit was invented by Pagans. So the old saying is stupid.
"`Now this was the sin of your sister Sodom: She and her daughters were arrogant, overfed and unconcerned; they did not help the poor and needy. They were haughty and did detestable things before me. Therefore I did away with them as you have seen.’” Cool, got it.
European here, but part of LGBTQ+ Transsexual typically refers to the people who use medicinal means to transition (hrt, gcs). Transgender refers to people for whom the assigned gender at birth does not match their actual, experienced gender. As such a transgender person does not necessarily have to transition, or only transitions socially. Personally, I am nonbinary but experience almost no body disphoria, which is why I am not really considering transitioning, meaning I am transgender but not transsexual.
@@freyja5800 RE: If I understood correctly, Transgender does not always mean that a person use medicinal means - maybe later on. I believe USA ppl refer primary to a person who feels was born in wrong body, and might be taking some pills or injections before the big surgery. Transsexual was before refered to a person who had surgery. Before there was not such thing as “Transgender”, but ppl who were born in wrong body. But there was Transsexual, somebody who was done with medicinal means or surgery. For a true Transexual surgery was and is obligatory in order not to feel Homosexual. The Transsexual can never make sex (exposed completaly naked) with the same gender before surgery. He/she must look the oposite. Otherwise it´s technically Homosexuality. Thouh, they can kiss and hug. I am convinced that moral ppl in old/ancient times (When there was not surgery to help), who felt were born in wrong body, chose to be Eunuchs or monks/nuns - ppl who lived in celibacy and chastity, not performing any Homosexual act. By the way, what do you mean by “nonbinary”? Never heard this terminology.
@@Beatusable I might have misunderstood what you meant, but Transsexuality and Sexuality are still two different things. There are transgender men and women who have sex with people of their own gender (and sex ofc), e. g. there are trans men (assigned female at birth, are men and in this example had gcs) who are homosexuals, i.e. have sexual reltionships with other men. that is not really that rare, a lot of transgender people are either bi or pansexual. A nonbinary person (short nb, sometimes also enby) is a person that does not fall within the gender binary. they can be genderfluid( their gender fluctuates over time), bigender (two genders at the same time), agender/demigender (no connection or a partial connection to the gender binary) or fall into a different category entirely. These things can be combined( demigenderfluid for example: fluctuates between woman-ish and man-ish). To find out where exactly you fall can thus be quite difficult. I myself am somewhat bigender (male + demiwoman, kind of), but I don't try to find out where exactly I fall because it does not matter enough for me. I just do what feels right, and thus only really identify myself as nonbinary.

@@weirdanimations1015 1) 12:23 --> Matthew was written about people who sinned that could be freed from sins and NOT that transgender people are Christians. 2) 15:50 God made only male and female -> God makes NO mistakes -> People who willingly change their own body, destroy the temple of God = will be punished by God. (Read the bible). God said to respect people, yes...But one thing here you have to include => If people have their own worldview and they use a pronoun of the "sex" that "God gave people on the day they were born" (male or female....only one of those 2) to address a transgender human being, it is NOT an insult (like that dude identified as a woman claimed when the shop owner called him "Sir" calmly => watch the video on youtube, it went viral). 3) 19:08 a) male Christians wear NO skirts, dresses and NO bras. Female Christians no trousers/pants. b) long robes with sleeves are NO female clothes. 21:19 4) 24:02 In the bible is nothing written about names and identity. A name in the Bible is often a description of the person himself or herself-or of what the parents would like their child to become. God gives names as well. Even more significant is when He changes a name. You yourself are NOT allowed to gives yourself a new name, cause you want it to. => This is called making yourself an idol. ATTENTION: Here I have to differ 2 things: If you change your body, cause you want to be someone you wanna be = okay, cause it's NOT idolatry, BUT you still damaged God's temple he gave you at birth. BUT if you force other people to accept your changed self, THEN you commit idolatry, cause you made yourself an important person while true Christians see only God and Jesus as their leader. All the modern-day speculation about numerous genders or gender fluidity or even unlimited genders - is foreign to the Bible. In the bible are only 2 genders (male man and female woman). Eunuchs are still people who are asigned to the sex they were born. Eunuchs who were castrated in the bible by kings (humans, NOT God) are still male men and female women. They DONT identify as the other sex. = They did NOT harmed their bodies (God's temple) by cause they wanted it by own will. 5) Act 8 -> There is no verse that said that the Eunuch identifies as someone else. = God accepts him cause he is a male man. (There is NO point that the Eunuch is transgender!) 1 John 5:21 Dear children, keep yourselves from idols. 1 Corinthians 10:14 Therefore, my dear friends, flee from idolatry. Jonah 2:8 “Those who cling to worthless idols turn away from God’s love for them. Isaiah 44:9-20 28:56 Here he talked about people who were castrated and went back to Israel. Then he ignores the words AFTER Isaiah 56:3-5. Isaiah 6-8 => those people who did NOT harm their bodies (caused by their own will) will be welcomed. People who change the body, cause they wanna identify as someone else instead of the identity God asigned them at birth, are sinners and not mentioned in this section. Malachi 3:6 For I, the Lord, do not change; therefore you, O sons of Jacob, are not consumed. 1 Corinthians 7:20 Each man must remain in that condition in which he was called. Proverbs 24:21 My son, fear the Lord and the king; Do not associate with those who are given to change.

I have a hard time when you use the word "patriarchy". If it's a patriarchy, why are men not allowed to dress like women, but women are allowed to dress like men? Doesn't seem very beneficial to men.
Good question, MattMan. Patriarchy hurts everyone, not just women. The more societies are patriarchal the more they are shown to have harsher punishments for crimes (like death for much less severe crimes than seem worthy of death), no allowance of men to have emotions, etc. The reason women are NOW allowed to dress like men is b/c women fought for that. It was not that long ago, though, that women could not wear pants. Earlier in the last century, women could be arrested for wearing pants. I wish men could wear dresses and no one bat an eye the way women can wear pants, b/c many dresses are SO freakin comfy. I fully support men wearing dresses. Personally, I am not a fan of matriarchy either. I prefer egalitarian societies where there is no hierarchy based on gender. I think maybe you have a hard time with the word "patriarchy" b/c it puts you on the defensive as a man. I do not blame men for patriarchy. Nowadays patriarchy, as well as sexism, happen b/c of bad messaging that keeps getting passed down. You don't need to take a critique of patriarchy personally just b/c you're a man.
Also because dressing “masculine” is more easily socially acceptable and respectable, while dressing “feminine” is more sexualized and sometimes seen as demeaning. That’s why a lot of men don’t dress feminine. It’s a self imposed patriarchy.
And this is why any feminist worth their salt talks about how the patriarchy hurts both men and women. We have an idea in our culture that things that are considered masculine are "better" than traditionally feminine things. Just look at how we talk about things women often like - makeup, fashion, romantic comedies - these things are often seen as frivolous compared to the interests of many men - sports, cars, fishing. We also see this mindset present in how we pay people. Traditionally feminine careers like childcare and nursing are paid very little despite the fact that they are highly trained positions and without which our society would collapse very quickly. tl;dr, women stuff bad, men stuff good. Men can't wear dresses because being feminine is bad.
Sorry the bible always states there is man and woman. No others. If we change that then We change one of the biblical principles and largest of scriptures.
So you’re saying “someone that has become transgender, shall enter the kingdom of God?” If you didn’t care for this topic please at least care for clarifying your ideas. (Double Negative = Positive)
@@jokesover3433 I assume u don't understand the character of God. I read the Bible and I don't know everything but I do know that that verse says nothing about how trans ppl won't be saved. it's not for u to decide who goes to heaven and who doesn't. U are not God so quit acting like it.
I watched through the video wanting to see the arguments that transgender supporting Christians have to support transgenderism. I must say, I didn't find much. Transgenderism goes against the reality that God has clearly created. He made humans male and female. There weren't any other genders. If you want to argue that there were, then why do you think didn't God mention them? You'd think that would be something very important to mention. There are multiple verses going in depth in the roles that men and women have. If you want to think that there are more genders, where are the instructions for genders? If you want to bring up intersex people and eunuchs, that doesn't work. Intersex people are people who are born with a deformity, as a result of the fall, and their gender is unclear. They aren't a third gender. Intersex people are real, yes, but few, and are not at all another sex. Eunuchs are just men who have been castrated. Now I'd like to go more in depth about transgenderism and how it goes against the reality God has created. God created humans male and female. He made a distinction between them. What was that distinction? Well, men have certain body parts and DNA that only men have, and likewise with women with their respective body parts and DNA. Okay, well what does transgenderism suggest? Transgenderism suggests that a man, for example, can decide to be a woman and then actually be a woman. Hmm, that goes against the distinction of body parts and DNA, doesn't it? If you think a person who was born male, with the body parts and DNA of a male can be a woman, then that suggests that the distinction isn't based on body parts and DNA. So, with the transgender idea, what is gender based on? What does it mean to be a man or a woman? Well, from my understanding, transgenderism suggests that it's solely based on one's perception. So transgenderism suggests that a man can decide to be a woman and be a woman, and it's only based on what they think. Well, with that logic, what's stopping an adult from saying they're a baby? If you suggest that a person's perception is the deciding factor and distinction, then why can't I think that a table is actually a book? Well, because that goes against reality. I can tell myself that elephants are actually fruits that grow on trees, but elephants aren't actually fruits that grow on trees, and I'd be objectively wrong about saying that. The same applies to transgender ideas. I'd say that a woman is an adult human female. Female, as taken from the dictionary, means "of or denoting the sex that can bear offspring or produce eggs, distinguished biologically by the production of gametes (ova) that can be fertilized by male gametes". But if you suggest that one's gender is based solely on what a person believes, then what would you say it means to be a woman? What defines a woman? If it isn't based on body parts and DNA, then what is it based on? You might say it's one's perception, but to say that is to completely eliminate the meaning of the word. If I can decide that a woman is an adult human female, but someone else can decide it's something else simply because they think so, and both of our interpretations would be correct, then a woman can be anything, and therefore the word has no meaning because, as transgenderism seems to suggest, anyone can decide that it means anything. Transgenderism goes against the reality that God has clearly created for us. If you support transgenderism, who are you to tell someone they're wrong in saying that a woman is a type of car, or some kind of vegetable? If you think being a man or a woman isn't based in the body parts and DNA, then what do you think it means to be a man or a woman? I'd like to end with this question: what is a woman? Maybe this person's argument wasn't presented in the best way, but they had the right idea.
I don't know what gender you were born as. Based on the name, I would think male. I'd like to ask, what does it mean to be non-binary? If you were born (I'm assuming, forgive me if I'm wrong) a male, then what changed to let you become "non-binary"? God created humans male and female. There weren't other genders created. Otherwise, I would think they'd be mentioned, but there are no other genders mentioned at all. There are multiple verses about the roles of both genders, and yet nothing about any others. I'd think that'd be very important to add. So, with being a male, how could you decide to be "non-binary"? Well, I'd think you just decided that you were. But what does that mean? What does it mean to you to not be either gender? These ideas people have today about gender go against the reality that God has made clear for us. If you think a person who has the body parts and DNA of a male can be a female at some point, then you'd say it isn't based on the body parts and DNA. If you think gender is simply based on our perception, then what's stopping an adult from saying he's a baby? Who would you be to deny him, if you think we can decide things like that based on our ideas alone? Likewise, if you think a man can be a woman, even with the body parts and DNA of a man, and you believe they're actually a woman, then it's all based on our perception. In that case, however, the meaning of woman falls apart, as well as man. If it's based only on our own perception, then someone could say that a woman is a type of car, and another person could say it's a feeling, and yet another could say it's a company, and on and on. If anyone is free to define what a woman is, then it comes to mean nothing. But we can't define for ourselves what a woman is. God has made the distinction for us, and we must follow. Likewise, if you think you're no longer any gender, then what does it even mean to be a gender? If you think a person can just decide that they're no longer any gender, then that suggests that anybody can just decide to be anything. That suggests this isn't based in some physical reality, but only on our thoughts, and that we can really just decide to be anything. But that's not the case. God has made the reality clear, and we need to follow it.
I'm not even done with the video and I'm in tears I feel so validated I'm struggling with my relationship with God and as I believe the end times are near and it's so hard trying to be true to yourself and your beliefs when fellow Christans are literally scaring you to believe and and making you feel like your going crazy!

Please don't listen to what is said in this video. Transgenderism goes against God, and the reality that He has clearly made.
God created humans male and female. He made a distinction between them. He made males with specific body parts and DNA, then made women with different features, and an ability to reproduce. The distinction wasn't based on their self perception.
Transgenderism, however, seems to suggest that the difference is based on one's perception. If you think a person with body parts and DNA of a man can be a woman can actually be a woman, then you don't agree that the distinction is based on body parts and DNA. So what is the distinction based on? What does it mean for a man to become a woman if you think that can happen? What happens?
Well, the answer seems simple. The only thing that has changed is the person's self perception and their ideas. But in that case, what's stopping an adult from saying they're a baby? Who would you be to deny that they're a baby? If you think things can just be something based on how they feel, then what's stopping me from saying a phone is a tree? We are in no place to define reality. Only God has control over reality, and He has clearly made the reality of man and woman. A person can't decide one day to be a different gender.
If you want to suggest that being a certain gender is based solely on the way someone thinks, then what does it even mean to be that gender? If you think perception is the only factor, then what does it mean to be a man? What does it mean to be a woman? If you say anybody can decide for themselves what it means for them to be a woman, then the meaning of woman falls apart. If you think being a woman is based on one's own views, then that suggests that anybody can define the word for themselves, leaving it to mean anything, and therefore nothing.
So let me ask you this: what is a woman?
You talked of being able to bring our experiences to the table, I had a good and useful experience at a vestry meeting because I lived both genders. each was expressing how they were approaching an issue, and each felt criticized by the other, I was able to show that one was expressing how they felt on the issue and the other was asking a question.

I’m a transvestite, ex/trans and sometime non-binary person, I also try to live by Jesus’ example (amongst other spiritual leaders). I’m not a Christian but I do read the bible and have studied it at university level. I’m not sure about the Catholic or other organised religious position on this but I will say that a) I don’t believe that being an apostle makes one infallible, and I certainly don’t think that being elected pope by cardinals imbues one with any more access to God’s inner thoughts (if an entity like God can even have thoughts!). Personally if I considered myself a Christian I would put a lot more store in the actions of the living god than in his followers’ interpretations. The quotations y’all use are incredibly unspecific and seem to be in contrast with Jesus’ message and actions. Why would he defend an adulterer from stoning if the intention of God was to put all sinners to death as Paul states? Seems to me that evangelicals are Paulists not Christians. They follow the word of Paul and not Jesus. Jesus preached a message of tolerance and love and forgiveness. Paul by the time of Romans was an elderly narcicist curmudgeon.

I truely believe most mental illnesses are not a sickness of the brain, but (as the bible tells us) a demon talking to somebody.. telling them to end their life.. telling them to be sad.. telling them to be confused about their gender.. Demons TORMENT people.. these people are TORMENTED... - also these people are completely obsessed with self which totally goes against the Christian Bible.. we are taught clearly not to be obsessed with physical appearance etc.. - Plus ALL of the biblical passages that address the topic.. if God made you a man, you are aa man, and saying God got it wrong is terribly offensive and telling God he was wrong and rejecting His choice is wrong too. so many passages completely twisted

That’s because you’ve chosen the devil to rule your life. You can’t live the life of a sick, pervert and unnatural sexual lifestyle and even be a Christian. You can’t even be a real person living a fake life.
I genuinely hope you are doing well wherever you may be in life at this moment. I apologize for the Christians who made you feel ostracized so badly that you turned away from the church. My prayer is that you still believe in God and Jesus Christ, and you know that he sacrificed himself so that we may be saved the debt of all our sins. Whatever you choose to do with your life is Gods gift to you, all he asks is that you acknowledge the ransom paid by the blood of Christ. If you do that you’ll be forgiven and you will receive the gift of everlasting life. I say all of this as someone who does believe that LGBTQ lifestyles are sinful, but recognizes I am a sinner myself. My name is written no clearer into the Book of Life than any other person who chooses to believe, including yourself and the whole community of people who live the way you do. If you take nothing else away from this paragraph please just always remember (no matter what another human tells you): JESUS LOVES YOU ❤️🙏🏽
@@dariondavis7145 Thanks.
I love how supportive the audience is
The early argument made was that dominion does not mean to "rule' but rather "create". That the naming of the animals was part of creation. And that to extent our role in creation we should extend beyond what God made (male and female) into even more expressions of humanity.
This is probably the most honest part of the lecture and it reveals the real hermeneutic. the Bible is very clear on its terminology in Genesis 1 and 2. Dominion means to rule over. It does not mean to create even if a professor that you really like wants to reinvent the meaning and intent of the world. From the context it is clear, mankind is the creation that rules the world. No animal was given the dominion of earth.
Next it was argued that the job of naming the animals is equivalent to creating the animals. And it was further argued that God intend us to expand his creation by reinventing what a man or a woman is. To say that mankind should reinvent what a man or a woman is because man is the creator is far closer to humanism than to a Christian worldview. While God gives man responsibilities he has not asked man to re-create what he has already made.
Inventing categories of humans based on internal feelings is an extremely limited scope no matter how often people claim it isn't. All of the gender expressions are deeply rooted in their relationship to male or female. A real application of this passage would allow people to identify as animals or as inanimate objects. Furthermore how does it expand the creation to identify as something that exists in the creation that you are not biologically.
If God made a tree, does it expand the creation for a dog to behave as a tree when it is in fact a dog? In the same logic, how is the creation enhanced when a person designed as a man, decided to behave as woman, something God already created?
The passage clearly teaches that there are only two kinds of people. The speaker desperately, by her own admission, wants the passage not to say what it clearly does in fact say. Such desires must be brought into submission of the spirit of God not the driving force of changing the intended meaning of the text.
Makes more sense.
Exactly!
She clearly is mistaken in many ways. She is right about one thing. God did not make a mistake. She is a woman; just like God made her.
Very well explained. I feel that “dominion” meant we would be smarter and could therefore rule and conquer any animal if we put our mind to it. We could also use animals without feeling bad, such as riding horses or taking care of the field. Not making yourself into a trans. God is not the author of confusion.
The authors of the bible sure were since they repeatedly contradict themselves. Also you’re only calling Austen a she because he openly talked about his sexual transformation - defy you to say you would have guessed without him saying so. Don’t forget you can’t bear false witness ;)
This heresy is leading people estray. I understand much of why you say what you are saying but taking the word of God and molding, twisting it, conforming it to worldly thoughts. Twisting God's word to affirm sin is heartbreaking. God gave men and women different roles and he did it for a reason...when humans pervert that ie "women belong in the kitchen..." statements, these are harmful human stereotypes that are used to reinforce role extremes and perversion. There are exceptions of the roles of men and women such as Deborah to name one.
In reference to the discussion of name giving in relation to identity, God is the one giving new names/identity, not ourselves giving ourselves new names/identity. When applying this to gender identity this is wrong...we do not decide our identity when we accept Jesus. When your identity is ROOTED in Jesus you will NEVER have an identity crisis again. The eunuch argument is egregious. Eunuch were made that way do to human sin...God's grace covers the sin done to them.
I am so saddened by what you are teaching. I have no hate for LGBTQ+ people. I do hate that you take the word and make it so sin is ok. Do not make the bible embrace sin just for your own affirmation. I will continue to pray for you and the people you preach to. God help them for they no not what they do.
I had to finally stop watching when he got to the part about Adam being a co-creator with God, in creating the animals. In Genesis2:19 it says that “God brought them (the animals that GOD had already created) and let Adam NAME them.” Am I missing something here? Yes, God Loves everyone and so do I, however …Leviticus 18:1, 2 and 22
Do you understand the context of the book's purpose from which these are found? Do you know what Leviticus's purpose is? Please research the fundamental purpose of the book itself and THEN, through that lens, understand what Leviticus is telling us. Also, take into account that alot of what Leviticus considers "kosher" isn't exactly relevant to us int he New Covenant through Christ... it's not just food laws.
The same point is made in the new testament as well though. I'm not trying to be rude, I know that's upsetting to hear. Whatever you're going through I'm sorry to hear it, but God can meet you where you are, wherever you are and bring you into the light. Call on His name friend.
It is so beyond blasphemous to take God's word and twist it like this. Teach love at your church sure, but this is not love, this is teaching narcissism and blatant misreading of Bible verses.
AMEN GIRL! 1) NOT ONE bible passage he mentioned is relevant to his arguement at all. 2) they are saying "god made a mistake" - what needs to be taught is that the demonic realm is super active, aLL of the new testament was warning against the demonic realm... MOST of Jesus healings was Jesus saying "demon get out" and the person being restored.. I truely believe most mental illnesses are not a sickness of the brain, but (as the bible tells us) a demon talking to somebody.. telling them to end their life.. telling them to be sad.. telling them to be confused about their gender.. Demons TORMENT people.. these people are TORMENTED... - also these people are completely obsessed with self which totally goes against the Christian Bible.. we are taught clearly not to be obsessed with physical appearance etc.. - Plus ALL of the biblical passages that address the topic.. if God made you a man, you are aa man, and saying God got it wrong is terribly offensive and telling God he was wrong and rejecting His choice is wrong too.
Right, they are loved by Christ but this is not biblical…..at all! This only works for those that do not know the word of God! With the Spirit revealing
As a Christian, you should not let anyone cause you to be "lukewarm" in your beliefs. Do not conform your language to validate another's ideology. Pray for those who are being deceived and misguided, while trying to overcome the temptation of the flesh. Remember, Jesus came to "fulfill" the Law and Prophecies of the Old Testament, not to dismantle them! Jesus clearly states that we can't have it both ways. It is for us to repent, wash sin away with baptism in Christ, and follow the DIFFICULT path of turning away from our sinful nature.
The LGBTQ+ Ideological movement is a "roaring lion"...
1 Peter 5:8
"Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion, walketh about, seeking whom he may devour."
There is nothing subtle, about a roaring lion....
Leviticus 18:
22Thou shalt not lie with mankind, as with womankind: it is abomination. 23Neither shalt thou lie with any beast to defile thyself therewith: neither shall any woman stand before a beast to lie down thereto: it is confusion.
Deuteronomy 22:5
"The woman shall not wear that which pertaineth unto a man, neither shall a man put on a woman's garment: for all that do so are abomination unto the LORD thy God."
Matthew 7: 13-23
13“Enter by the narrow gate; for wide is the gate and broad is the way that leads to destruction, and there are many who go in by it. 14[c]Because narrow is the gate and [d] DIFFICULT is the way which leads to life, and there are few who find it. 15“Beware of false prophets, who come to you in sheep’s clothing, but inwardly they are ravenous wolves. 16You will know them by their fruits. Do men gather grapes from thornbushes or figs from thistles? 17Even so, every good tree bears good fruit, but a bad tree bears bad fruit. 18A good tree cannot bear bad fruit, nor can a bad tree bear good fruit. 19Every tree that does not bear good fruit is cut down and thrown into the fire. 20Therefore by their fruits you will know them. 21“Not everyone who says to Me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ shall enter the kingdom of heaven, but he who does the will of My Father in heaven. 22Many will say to Me in that day, ‘Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in Your name, cast out demons in Your name, and done many wonders in Your name?’ 23And then I will declare to them, ‘I never knew you; depart from Me, you who practice lawlessness!’
Revelations 3:
15I know thy works, that thou art neither cold nor hot: I would thou wert cold or hot. 16So then because thou art lukewarm, and neither cold nor hot, I will spue thee out of my mouth. 17Because thou sayest, I am rich, and increased with goods, and have need of nothing; and knowest not that thou art wretched, and miserable, and poor, and blind, and naked: 18I counsel thee to buy of me gold tried in the fire, that thou mayest be rich; and white raiment, that thou mayest be clothed, and that the shame of thy nakedness do not appear; and anoint thine eyes with eyesalve, that thou mayest see. 19As many as I love, I rebuke and chasten: be zealous therefore, and repent. 20Behold, I stand at the door, and knock: if any man hear my voice, and open the door, I will come in to him, and will sup with him, and he with me. 21To him that overcometh will I grant to sit with me in my throne, even as I also overcame, and am set down with my Father in his throne. 22He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches.
God is waiting for us to turn away from sin and follow the path of the one he sent to be our example, guide, advocate, judge and eventual King! You are expected to do this before death comes "like a thief in the night"!
Well if we followed Jesus example we’d never have children
I'm watching this video because I'm 73 Years old and Christian and I'm just trying to understand. Some of what Austen said was simply wrong though. First thing I saw wrong was about eunuchs and medical castration. This was not done for the reason Austen mentioned, such as punishment. It was done to prevent the rape of women. Medical castration is done in prisons to rapists and pedophiles, sometimes at their own request, to prevent erection in males who use their genital as a weapon against women or children. Some of them thing it may also diminish the desire. My personal belief is that the soul is genderless. There's no gender in heaven (I believe that in the afterlife or beforelife is as spirits that have no gender) and therefore if you remember that condition of your soul, then you would have what I have heard called gender dysphoria. However, the sole purpose of the gender differences in the first place is procreation, and that's the only thing that bothers me. The declining birth rate is a problem. But if transpeople try and change the way we think of the sexes as "people who can give birth" or "menstruate", that's a problem too. Transpeople want to validate their identity at the expense of the identity of everyone. I'm not a hater, but I still don't understand why all this is even necessary. You can change yourself but you can't change the world.

You NEVER cite sources such as that nature which basically says the people who had the Old Testament as the basis of their culture say you are wrong.
That part about understanding suffering,death and resurrection made me cry cause I've never thought it that way
Thanks Austen! This was a great Talk!
I feel valid now that I know that god made me this way and that I know I won’t go to hell and will be able to go to heaven and god will accept me for who I am thanks ❤️

God is not the author of confusion. If a person is confused it’s from the Devil. You can’t believe part of the Bible and try to twist things around so you can be something you weren’t born to be. If you feel like you’re born the opposite sex, your family needs to pray and repent for the sins that they’ve committed which caused the spirit to be on you.

God made me gender nonconforming, and I’m not gonna try to change that.

@@babyvia6712 I did? Aww! I'm glad to hear that.
No, God made you a certain gender. Then you decided to call yourself no gender.
Tell me, what does it mean to be gender nonconforming? Do you just think you're not either gender? What does that even mean? You're clearly one gender, considering that's how you were born, and it's clear from the distinctions God made between genders. You can't just deny the truth and say that you aren't something when you are that thing. You can tell me all you want that a person with 2 arms has only 1 arm, but that doesn't suddenly make that person have 1 arm. They still have 2 arms. You can't just decide reality because of how you feel. You need to get past the way that you feel and accept the reality, despite how you feel about it. An addict doesn't want to let their addiction go, but it shows obedience and maturity for them to let go of that addiction.
@@victorkifyak6858 Before you start firing at people, do you research because you don't even know what you're talking about! You don't even know what gender-nonconforming means.

Don't just tell me I'm wrong and not give a definition.
Dude I wanted to listen to this but it took 10 minutes of pandering before you got to the point, not good enough for attention span
Question, if we took away surgery and all the trans wanted to have a baby, how would they procreate without cheating on their spouse? Unless their spouses are also a trans. Humanity would eventually end. Another thing, humans aren’t cattle, or fowl, or a creeping thing, so God wasn’t talking about having dominion man having dominion over man.
They would still be able to have a child by many ways
1. The spouse is ok with them having a child
2. The spouse and the trans person have a child themselves (assuming they haven’t gotten bottom surgery or have prepared for it)
3. They adopt
@@saltycombat6957 my example was meant to be without actually having any medical interventions or adoptions. If we’re talking about Christians, how can trans procreate with the same genitals? Also, the Bible says the bed should be undefiled. So allowing your spouse to sleep with someone else is not an honorable marriage in my opinion.
@@alienatedism they can’t, they need the opposite ye spas.
You're talking homosexual, not trans.
I'm trans and have a biological son.
Humanity is far from ending. We're more likely to overpopulate the planet.
There aren't enough trans people on earth to affect the population, and acceptance of trans people won't cause us to overwhelm the population. Gender dysphoria isn't a contagious condition, and kids being convinced they're trans when they aren't is extremely uncommon. Is a cis woman still a "real" Woman if she has a hysterectomy? Is a cis man still a "real" man if he has an orchiectomy? Cis people have these procedures done for various medical emergencies. Gender dysphoria that is causing suicidal ideation is a medical emergency that these same procedures help with. Humans are over populated, so less babies for a few generations would be really good for us.
Omg wow this was amazing. I’ve been researching and preying a little bit about this and I do believe it is ok to be Christian and trans, like there’s nothing wrong about it but then my head to the matthew 16 24 so can someone help with this verse please
Hi Daniel! People argue that being Christian comes with suffering. But Jesus never endorses oppression. In order for suffering to be Christ-like, it must be redemptive. I think what is important here is that Jesus calls us to leave our lifestyle of sin and to follow him. However, I don’t believe this would apply to you regarding being trans because that’s not something you have to redeem from. I hope this makes sense! :)
In what way is turning from being trans not redemptive? You're turning away from sin. God created humans male and female. We aren't in any place to deny the reality God put in place. God made a distinction between the genders, and for people to call themselves a different gender is to deny the reality God put in place and to suggest that the distinction God made doesn't apply. To claim to be trans is to deny the truth that God has given to us.
What is gender based on according to your ideology? Self perception? Well, in that case, who's stopping an adult from calling themself a baby? Who's stopping a person with two arms from identifying as someone with one arm? There is a reality in place, and my heart goes out to the people who have gender dysphoria. But you must realize, people struggle with sins. There are people who struggle with addictions. This isn't much different. I know it may feel uncomfortable, but the solution isn't to abandon truth.
What do you mean using the words "redeem from"? Cam you please explain?
Being Christian has a suffering. Don't focus on the labels of the world. Just focus on your identity in christ
Waiiiit, had to stop at about ten minutes in... looking forward to this, expecting to really appreciate it over all, but are you saying that b/c gay people are helping to raise children they are contributing to the "nurturing" of people being trans?? B/c I would most def disagree with that... for several reasons...
Which are?
I want facts. Not opinions. State them Karen.
hi, i was kind of confused there too, but from how i see it, i think he's trying to say that in a biological/historical standpoint, it might have been helpful to have transgender people within the community help take care of children that were not biologically their own (because, like he said, the more adults there are taking care of the children, the better off they are). Then, if the children grew up well under a good number of adults, then they would grow up and later pass on good genes because they were raised well. I don't know too much about biology, and I am in no way saying that my interpretation is correct, but i do feel like this may be what Hartke was trying to say
I think they're talking about the existence of TERFs, Trans-Exclusionary Radical Feminists. The general stereotype of a TERF is a butch lesbian cisgender female that believes and wishes to preserve gender conformity.
generally if they raised a kid the kid would probably feel pressured to be cisgender rather than explore or embrace any transgender thoughts or feelings
How come you have not given any scripture to support your theory?
this was so beautiful! thank you so much. transgender liberation, now!
Please don't listen to what is said in this video. Transgenderism goes against God, and the reality that He has clearly made.
God created humans male and female. He made a distinction between them. He made males with specific body parts and DNA, then made women with different features, and an ability to reproduce. The distinction wasn't based on their self perception.
Transgenderism, however, seems to suggest that the difference is based on one's perception. If you think a person with body parts and DNA of a man can be a woman can actually be a woman, then you don't agree that the distinction is based on body parts and DNA. So what is the distinction based on? What does it mean for a man to become a woman if you think that can happen? What happens?
Well, the answer seems simple. The only thing that has changed is the person's self perception and their ideas. But in that case, what's stopping an adult from saying they're a baby? Who would you be to deny that they're a baby? If you think things can just be something based on how they feel, then what's stopping me from saying a phone is a tree? We are in no place to define reality. Only God has control over reality, and He has clearly made the reality of man and woman. A person can't decide one day to be a different gender.
If you want to suggest that being a certain gender is based solely on the way someone thinks, then what does it even mean to be that gender? If you think perception is the only factor, then what does it mean to be a man? What does it mean to be a woman? If you say anybody can decide for themselves what it means for them to be a woman, then the meaning of woman falls apart. If you think being a woman is based on one's own views, then that suggests that anybody can define the word for themselves, leaving it to mean anything, and therefore nothing.
So let me ask you this: what is a woman?
Be fruitful and multiply.
You going to totally ignore that.
What it don't fit your narrative.
Your agenda.
I guess you will ignore this also.
Deuteronomy 23:17
[17]There shall be no whore of the daughters of Israel, nor a sodomite of the sons of Israel.
What does the Bible say about taking away from the word of God.
Revelation 22:18-19
[18]For I testify unto every man that heareth the words of the prophecy of this book, If any man shall add unto these things, God shall add unto him the plagues that are written in this book:
[19]And if any man shall take away from the words of the book of this prophecy, God shall take away his part out of the book of life, and out of the holy city, and from the things which are written in this book.
And what you think and feel has no significance in God's words.
Isaiah 55:7-8
[7]Let the wicked forsake his way, and the unrighteous man his thoughts: and let him return unto the LORD, and he will have mercy upon him; and to our God, for he will abundantly pardon.
[8]For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways, saith the LORD.
Also if you studied the Torah like you imply that you do, you would also know when you read that the literal translation is that God gave dominion to Adam over the animal, which could also be translated as that he gave man intellect to control his own body.
When Paul said there is no male or female it’s about that as a Christian, you aren’t supposed to be filter blinded with how you view your brothers and sisters in Christ as well as your brethren of the earth. You are perverting the words of God

Do not be confused what other people tell you it is what the lord has said and has been written that is important because it was he that created us he is the lord that gave us life and a sole and a gender male / female he gave us this world to live in to share the god Heavenly Father is the law and him law is written in the bible and the most important law is in the bible are the 10 commandments the rest is the bible of his word and is not to be written or changed in anyway by anyone but him h the lord has told of his new heaven that he has already made for you and has said who may enter it and who may not enter it that is not our choice but his as the lord law is strict for he is our king and our choice who wish to make it there’s to be in his or her life who lives but his law the Heavenly Father and not by anyone else who might think they can change it the way they want it for they will not be aloud in the gates on his now heaven the lord has spoken and put in words amen
Deu 22:5 The woman shall not wear that which pertaineth unto a man, neither shall a man put on a woman's garment: for all that do so are ABOMINATION unto the LORD thy God.
When something is an ABOMINATION unto God himself, how can that be the law of Moses?
AMEN ! 1) NOT ONE bible passage he mentioned is relevant to his arguement at all. 2) they are saying "god made a mistake" - what needs to be taught is that the demonic realm is super active, aLL of the new testament was warning against the demonic realm... MOST of Jesus healings was Jesus saying "demon get out" and the person being restored.. I truely believe most mental illnesses are not a sickness of the brain, but (as the bible tells us) a demon talking to somebody.. telling them to end their life.. telling them to be sad.. telling them to be confused about their gender.. Demons TORMENT people.. these people are TORMENTED... - also these people are completely obsessed with self which totally goes against the Christian Bible.. we are taught clearly not to be obsessed with physical appearance etc.. - Plus ALL of the biblical passages that address the topic.. if God made you a man, you are aa man, and saying God got it wrong is terribly offensive and telling God he was wrong and rejecting His choice is wrong too. so many passages completely twisted - this person spoke a lot but didn't address any of the biblical passages so clearly against this

So much wrong with the definitions and words peak used. Science doesn't support so much being taught here.
Regardless of that, God loves each of us equally and tells us to love others as we would want to be loved.
We are also tasked to do what is right and true which is often not the same as doing what makes us feel good.
God is truth AND love.

What does this have to do with being trans?
If gender specific clothing doesn’t matter, why did she (the speaker) decide to dress like a man???
16:55 He explains himself quite clearly if you actually watch his speech.
He dresses the way he dresses because that's how he feels the most comfortable. Society is what labels things as mens clothes or womans clothes but that doesn't mean they are the only people who can wear said clothes. If you listen to the video he is actually talking about how the stereotypical men or womens clothes are constantly changing. Heels were originally created for men and the Romans wore skirts. Those items are now typically worn by women. So he's saying it's difficult to completely go by or obey that because clothing and style is constantly changing
Good Job Austen! 👍
I don’t agree with this I respect and love trans people .. But this is twisting and bending of the scripture to make it sound like what you want to hear. God is God of order. I feel like he doesn’t included biblical text that argues what he’s preaching. Just my opinion
She forgot to mention all of the scriptures where God doesn’t approve of homosexuality among other things. The only person that gets to be a trans should be the one’s born with both parts. Once they get older, they should be able to choose one and remove the other. That’s my opinion. But they could also keep both and find someone to accept them or something.
You mean the Mosaic laws that don't apply to Christians?
Or are you talking Paul's morality "laws"?
For that matter, do you insist women have long hair and men wear robes with tassels?
Beware the yeast of the Pharisees. They were known for enforcing rules even if it caused suffering.
Who's she? I didn't see a female speaker.
Oh and all the go forth and multiply brigade presumably also think that it’s sin to be infertile
This is so misguided. God gave us free will, we make or choices good or bad, right or wrong. Saying God made you trans is like saying God made you afflicted, that's not how it works. You don't understand the Bible or the Spiritual at all, go back to scripture.
Saying God made me trans is like saying God made me right handed. It can't be proved biologically but that doesn't change the fact I'm transgender.
God intended I should be a girl but this world defies God all the time. It created a male body.
Gender dysphoria is a medical condition for which the cure is transition. Being trans is not a choice. God has afflicted humans with countless diseases, some of which have no cure and afflict children. Without saying, "He works in mysterious ways we shouldn't question." How do you account for every child who has ever died of cancer, or had to live their whole life with a disability?
Also…doesn’t the Bible say that god doesn’t actually have a gender either…?
No
Depends on what you mean by gender. God created the idea of gender, arguably, and the concepts of masculinity and femininity. I'd be careful with labels.
What I do know is that YHWH always uses the male pronoun. I am going to call Him by that.
Did you forget Jesus is SON of GOD. In this case, God is Jesus Father. We need repentance of our sins.
That was amazing, I’m still trying to convince my parents that I’m non-binary and it’s been a struggle. I wish they could understand this video
I don't know what gender you were born as. Based on the name, I would think male.
I'd like to ask, what does it mean to be non-binary? If you were born (I'm assuming, forgive me if I'm wrong) a male, then what changed to let you become "non-binary"?
God created humans male and female. There weren't other genders created. Otherwise, I would think they'd be mentioned, but there are no other genders mentioned at all. There are multiple verses about the roles of both genders, and yet nothing about any others. I'd think that'd be very important to add.
So, with being a male, how could you decide to be "non-binary"? Well, I'd think you just decided that you were. But what does that mean? What does it mean to you to not be either gender?
These ideas people have today about gender go against the reality that God has made clear for us. If you think a person who has the body parts and DNA of a male can be a female at some point, then you'd say it isn't based on the body parts and DNA.
If you think gender is simply based on our perception, then what's stopping an adult from saying he's a baby? Who would you be to deny him, if you think we can decide things like that based on our ideas alone?
Likewise, if you think a man can be a woman, even with the body parts and DNA of a man, and you believe they're actually a woman, then it's all based on our perception. In that case, however, the meaning of woman falls apart, as well as man. If it's based only on our own perception, then someone could say that a woman is a type of car, and another person could say it's a feeling, and yet another could say it's a company, and on and on. If anyone is free to define what a woman is, then it comes to mean nothing. But we can't define for ourselves what a woman is. God has made the distinction for us, and we must follow.
Likewise, if you think you're no longer any gender, then what does it even mean to be a gender? If you think a person can just decide that they're no longer any gender, then that suggests that anybody can just decide to be anything. That suggests this isn't based in some physical reality, but only on our thoughts, and that we can really just decide to be anything. But that's not the case. God has made the reality clear, and we need to follow it.
@@victorkifyak6858 watch the video
As a matter of fact, I did watch the video. I still don't know what it means to be non-binary. Perhaps you could explain for me, and let me know what exactly it means. Maybe the video didn't do a good enough job explaining that. I'd like to hear what you have to say.
@@victorkifyak6858 it’s not a decision you don’t choose to be non binary or trans in general, you just are, it can take a lot of introspection to understand and recognize that but i didn’t choose to be non-binary, i just am if i could choose i wouldn’t be, the only choices that trans people make in relation to gender identity is to share it with the people around them and the world and socially and maybe medically transition. medical transition even sometimes isn’t really a choice.
biological sex is definitely a thing but it’s a lot more complicated than you might think, and it isn’t binary, the Bible even supports that as God made Adam initially as a hermaphrodite, neither male nor female, all fetuses start out as hermaphrodites then throughout the gestation process we often take on primary/secondary sex characteristics and “gain” our biological sex, but those just indicate your biological sex, and if you try to classify anybody as strictly male or strictly female you often run into contradicting information regardless of what metric you use to classify sex
gender is a social construct, trans people have been around for forever you can find them all throughout history and cultures, multiple different cultures have had more than two genders for thousands of years
if we as Christians are to minister to those that don’t know God we should always come from a place of love, and understanding and i believe you can’t really do that unless you have all available information both from the Bible and from the study of the world that God created for us, we are called to be separate from the world as our home is in Heaven but we shouldn’t be separated from it, the world is beautiful and broken, if we don’t understand the difference between the two we cannot expect non believers to.
i didn’t choose to be non-binary, and i don’t define what that or what womanhood or manhood is, i just experience it, so to ask me to describe what it is in any meaningful way that you would understand because my experience is unique to me, that’s what makes us human, that’s why God made us the way He did. God didn’t make a mistake when he made me or any other queer person, we are not rebelling against Him, we are just living the lives that He gave us, and trying to live truthfully as He has called all of us to.
I find it interesting that I asked what it means to be non-binary, and the answer I got is that you're non-binary, not actually an answer.
God created us clearly male and clearly female. There weren't any other genders mentioned. That'd be something very important to mention if there were other genders. You see, in making the distinction, there is now an actual difference. We're in no place to decide what that difference is. God already has determined what the difference is. Now people today want to pervert the reality God has made clear to us. People want to say that a person's own self perception can define reality.
Tell me, if a person has 2 arms, but he identifies as someone with 1 arm, does he now have 1 arm? No, he still has 2 arms. He's just saying that he has 1 arm, but in fact, that hasn't changed that he has 2 arms. Likewise, people can't decide reality because of how they feel in saying what gender they are. An adult who identifies as a baby is still an adult.
I hear this a lot as well, how people try to claim that transgenderism is a solution, and that gender dysphoria is a real problem. Yes, I agree. I feel sorry for people who have gender dysphoria. I also feel bad for people who have addictions. See, though, the solution isn't to continue in your addiction. It can be hard to get past sin, but you have to do it anyway.
I think the fact that you can't tell me what it means to be non-binary is very telling. According to your logic, it would seem that anyone can decide what it means to be a certain gender. In that case, one person could say a woman is a shoe, while another person says it's a type of chocolate, while yet another person says it's another word for a tree. If anyone can define the word, then the word means nothing. To say that anyone can define what it means to be a man or a woman based on how they feel is to go against the truth God put in place. We're also told many times about how deceptive our hearts can be.
I feel sorry for people who have gender dysphoria. I imagine that it's a very hard thing. But it can be difficult to get past sin. The solution is never to embrace sin.
Transgenderism remains a wholly incoherent worldview. One in which people confuse gender roles and norms with gender itself. One in which they insist others are incorrect in using terms like "man" or "woman" while being unable to provide objective definitions for these terms themselves. And one in which they frequently equate disagreement with hate, which is not only illogical but dangerous.

2 kings 9:32-34
Mathew 19:12
A eunuch is fancy bible term to describe a transsexual.
The word trans-gender is invalid since you identify with the gender between your ears. Transsexual describes a person who's gender is legit but the sex below the waste doesn't align. Dont be to fluid with queerology and the lesbian and gay community... Being straight is definitely in the bible;)
Eunuch is another word for transsexual? You do know eunuchs are mostly so not of their freewill right so how are they transitioning?
Being transgender is also not biblical. What does it mean for a man to identify as a woman? What exactly does that person identify as? Can a person with two arms identify as a person with one arm? Well, I guess they could say that, but they would still have two arms. Likewise, someone can call themselves a different gender, but that doesn't change their gender. We aren't in any place to change the reality God put in place. We can't just say something is the case and have that thing be the case. An adult who calls himself a baby doesn't become a baby. God put a distinction in place between males and females. We're not in a place to decide for ourselves what that distinction is. God has made the distinction, and we shouldn't go against it.

Hey, fellow Christian here,
I would simply like to point out that being LGBT isn’t necessarily a choice. I myself am LGBT, and I didn’t want to be. I tried extraordinarily hard not to be if that makes sense. I went through a very long period of simply hating myself because of it, and I thought God must have felt the same. Of course, I was forgetting that God loves all of his children, and I know for a fact I am one of His children because I asked for Him to forgive me of my sins, and come into my life, as we all have. It is really difficult being LGBT and Christian, but mostly because of the hate I see going back and forth. The church is not supposed to be a courthouse, it is supposed to be a hospital, where those who need can go there to find healing and grace. Perhaps I simply want to add that God still loves, even if someone were LGBT. They are His creation, and we all know that He loves his children without fail.
But yes, it is important to read God’s word for yourself. There is no lie there.
@JeremyKlown yes, I also acknowledge that, with God’s help one can overcome anything.

In Europe it´s called Transsexual. So what is the difference in USA between Transsexual and Transgender?
European here, but part of LGBTQ+ Transsexual typically refers to the people who use medicinal means to transition (hrt, gcs). Transgender refers to people for whom the assigned gender at birth does not match their actual, experienced gender. As such a transgender person does not necessarily have to transition, or only transitions socially. Personally, I am nonbinary but experience almost no body disphoria, which is why I am not really considering transitioning, meaning I am transgender but not transsexual.
@@freyja5800 RE: If I understood correctly, Transgender does not always mean that a person use medicinal means - maybe later on. I believe USA ppl refer primary to a person who feels was born in wrong body, and might be taking some pills or injections before the big surgery. Transsexual was before refered to a person who had surgery. Before there was not such thing as “Transgender”, but ppl who were born in wrong body. But there was Transsexual, somebody who was done with medicinal means or surgery. For a true Transexual surgery was and is obligatory in order not to feel Homosexual. The Transsexual can never make sex (exposed completaly naked) with the same gender before surgery. He/she must look the oposite. Otherwise it´s technically Homosexuality. Thouh, they can kiss and hug. I am convinced that moral ppl in old/ancient times (When there was not surgery to help), who felt were born in wrong body, chose to be Eunuchs or monks/nuns - ppl who lived in celibacy and chastity, not performing any Homosexual act. By the way, what do you mean by “nonbinary”? Never heard this terminology.
@@Beatusable I might have misunderstood what you meant, but Transsexuality and Sexuality are still two different things. There are transgender men and women who have sex with people of their own gender (and sex ofc), e. g. there are trans men (assigned female at birth, are men and in this example had gcs) who are homosexuals, i.e. have sexual reltionships with other men. that is not really that rare, a lot of transgender people are either bi or pansexual.
A nonbinary person (short nb, sometimes also enby) is a person that does not fall within the gender binary. they can be genderfluid( their gender fluctuates over time), bigender (two genders at the same time), agender/demigender (no connection or a partial connection to the gender binary) or fall into a different category entirely. These things can be combined( demigenderfluid for example: fluctuates between woman-ish and man-ish). To find out where exactly you fall can thus be quite difficult. I myself am somewhat bigender (male + demiwoman, kind of), but I don't try to find out where exactly I fall because it does not matter enough for me. I just do what feels right, and thus only really identify myself as nonbinary.

God said to respect people, yes...But one thing here you have to include => If people have their own worldview and they use a pronoun of the "sex" that "God gave people on the day they were born" (male or female....only one of those 2) to address a transgender human being, it is NOT an insult (like that dude identified as a woman claimed when the shop owner called him "Sir" calmly => watch the video on youtube, it went viral).
3) 19:08 a) male Christians wear NO skirts, dresses and NO bras. Female Christians no trousers/pants.
b) long robes with sleeves are NO female clothes.
21:19
4) 24:02 In the bible is nothing written about names and identity. A name in the Bible is often a description of the person himself or herself-or of what the parents would like their child to become. God gives names as well. Even more significant is when He changes a name.
You yourself are NOT allowed to gives yourself a new name, cause you want it to. => This is called making yourself an idol.
ATTENTION:
Here I have to differ 2 things: If you change your body, cause you want to be someone you wanna be = okay, cause it's NOT idolatry, BUT you still damaged God's temple he gave you at birth.
BUT if you force other people to accept your changed self, THEN you commit idolatry, cause you made yourself an important person while true Christians see only God and Jesus as their leader.
All the modern-day speculation about numerous genders or gender fluidity or even unlimited genders - is foreign to the Bible.
In the bible are only 2 genders (male man and female woman). Eunuchs are still people who are asigned to the sex they were born.
Eunuchs who were castrated in the bible by kings (humans, NOT God) are still male men and female women. They DONT identify as the other sex. = They did NOT harmed their bodies (God's temple) by cause they wanted it by own will.
5) Act 8 -> There is no verse that said that the Eunuch identifies as someone else. = God accepts him cause he is a male man. (There is NO point that the Eunuch is transgender!)
1 John 5:21 Dear children, keep yourselves from idols.
1 Corinthians 10:14 Therefore, my dear friends, flee from idolatry.
Jonah 2:8 “Those who cling to worthless idols turn away from God’s love for them.
Isaiah 44:9-20
28:56 Here he talked about people who were castrated and went back to Israel. Then he ignores the words AFTER Isaiah 56:3-5.
Isaiah 6-8
=> those people who did NOT harm their bodies (caused by their own will) will be welcomed.
People who change the body, cause they wanna identify as someone else instead of the identity God asigned them at birth, are sinners and not mentioned in this section.

I have a hard time when you use the word "patriarchy". If it's a patriarchy, why are men not allowed to dress like women, but women are allowed to dress like men? Doesn't seem very beneficial to men.
Good question, MattMan. Patriarchy hurts everyone, not just women. The more societies are patriarchal the more they are shown to have harsher punishments for crimes (like death for much less severe crimes than seem worthy of death), no allowance of men to have emotions, etc. The reason women are NOW allowed to dress like men is b/c women fought for that. It was not that long ago, though, that women could not wear pants. Earlier in the last century, women could be arrested for wearing pants. I wish men could wear dresses and no one bat an eye the way women can wear pants, b/c many dresses are SO freakin comfy. I fully support men wearing dresses. Personally, I am not a fan of matriarchy either. I prefer egalitarian societies where there is no hierarchy based on gender. I think maybe you have a hard time with the word "patriarchy" b/c it puts you on the defensive as a man. I do not blame men for patriarchy. Nowadays patriarchy, as well as sexism, happen b/c of bad messaging that keeps getting passed down. You don't need to take a critique of patriarchy personally just b/c you're a man.
Also because dressing “masculine” is more easily socially acceptable and respectable, while dressing “feminine” is more sexualized and sometimes seen as demeaning. That’s why a lot of men don’t dress feminine. It’s a self imposed patriarchy.
And this is why any feminist worth their salt talks about how the patriarchy hurts both men and women. We have an idea in our culture that things that are considered masculine are "better" than traditionally feminine things. Just look at how we talk about things women often like - makeup, fashion, romantic comedies - these things are often seen as frivolous compared to the interests of many men - sports, cars, fishing. We also see this mindset present in how we pay people. Traditionally feminine careers like childcare and nursing are paid very little despite the fact that they are highly trained positions and without which our society would collapse very quickly.
tl;dr, women stuff bad, men stuff good. Men can't wear dresses because being feminine is bad.
This video makes me sick
Sorry the bible always states there is man and woman. No others. If we change that then We change one of the biblical principles and largest of scriptures.
It's a sin.
deuteronomy 23:1‼😴
So you’re saying “someone that has become transgender, shall enter the kingdom of God?” If you didn’t care for this topic please at least care for clarifying your ideas. (Double Negative = Positive)
@@a3r0nautical_ hey brother I'm just quoting what's in the bible. Don't shoot the messenger‼
@@jokesover3433 where exactly does it say that in the bible 🤔😐
@@jokesover3433 I assume u don't understand the character of God. I read the Bible and I don't know everything but I do know that that verse says nothing about how trans ppl won't be saved. it's not for u to decide who goes to heaven and who doesn't. U are not God so quit acting like it.
@@justjessi2103 it's in scripture Deuteronomy 23:1 not john 3:16 my fault and it Definitely states what I'm trying to tell you.✔😒
NO !!
wow this is so insightful, thank you for your opinion.
Lmfao
I watched through the video wanting to see the arguments that transgender supporting Christians have to support transgenderism. I must say, I didn't find much.
Transgenderism goes against the reality that God has clearly created. He made humans male and female. There weren't any other genders. If you want to argue that there were, then why do you think didn't God mention them? You'd think that would be something very important to mention. There are multiple verses going in depth in the roles that men and women have. If you want to think that there are more genders, where are the instructions for genders? If you want to bring up intersex people and eunuchs, that doesn't work. Intersex people are people who are born with a deformity, as a result of the fall, and their gender is unclear. They aren't a third gender. Intersex people are real, yes, but few, and are not at all another sex. Eunuchs are just men who have been castrated.
Now I'd like to go more in depth about transgenderism and how it goes against the reality God has created. God created humans male and female. He made a distinction between them. What was that distinction? Well, men have certain body parts and DNA that only men have, and likewise with women with their respective body parts and DNA. Okay, well what does transgenderism suggest? Transgenderism suggests that a man, for example, can decide to be a woman and then actually be a woman. Hmm, that goes against the distinction of body parts and DNA, doesn't it? If you think a person who was born male, with the body parts and DNA of a male can be a woman, then that suggests that the distinction isn't based on body parts and DNA.
So, with the transgender idea, what is gender based on? What does it mean to be a man or a woman? Well, from my understanding, transgenderism suggests that it's solely based on one's perception. So transgenderism suggests that a man can decide to be a woman and be a woman, and it's only based on what they think. Well, with that logic, what's stopping an adult from saying they're a baby? If you suggest that a person's perception is the deciding factor and distinction, then why can't I think that a table is actually a book? Well, because that goes against reality. I can tell myself that elephants are actually fruits that grow on trees, but elephants aren't actually fruits that grow on trees, and I'd be objectively wrong about saying that.
The same applies to transgender ideas. I'd say that a woman is an adult human female. Female, as taken from the dictionary, means "of or denoting the sex that can bear offspring or produce eggs, distinguished biologically by the production of gametes (ova) that can be fertilized by male gametes".
But if you suggest that one's gender is based solely on what a person believes, then what would you say it means to be a woman? What defines a woman? If it isn't based on body parts and DNA, then what is it based on? You might say it's one's perception, but to say that is to completely eliminate the meaning of the word. If I can decide that a woman is an adult human female, but someone else can decide it's something else simply because they think so, and both of our interpretations would be correct, then a woman can be anything, and therefore the word has no meaning because, as transgenderism seems to suggest, anyone can decide that it means anything.
Transgenderism goes against the reality that God has clearly created for us. If you support transgenderism, who are you to tell someone they're wrong in saying that a woman is a type of car, or some kind of vegetable? If you think being a man or a woman isn't based in the body parts and DNA, then what do you think it means to be a man or a woman? I'd like to end with this question: what is a woman?
Maybe this person's argument wasn't presented in the best way, but they had the right idea.
😂😂😂🤦♀️
That was amazing, I’m still trying to convince my parents that I’m non-binary and it’s been a struggle. I wish they could understand this video
I'm in the same spot, trying to convince my parents I'm nonbinary as well, I hope it goes well for you!
I don't know what gender you were born as. Based on the name, I would think male.
I'd like to ask, what does it mean to be non-binary? If you were born (I'm assuming, forgive me if I'm wrong) a male, then what changed to let you become "non-binary"?
God created humans male and female. There weren't other genders created. Otherwise, I would think they'd be mentioned, but there are no other genders mentioned at all. There are multiple verses about the roles of both genders, and yet nothing about any others. I'd think that'd be very important to add.
So, with being a male, how could you decide to be "non-binary"? Well, I'd think you just decided that you were. But what does that mean? What does it mean to you to not be either gender?
These ideas people have today about gender go against the reality that God has made clear for us. If you think a person who has the body parts and DNA of a male can be a female at some point, then you'd say it isn't based on the body parts and DNA.
If you think gender is simply based on our perception, then what's stopping an adult from saying he's a baby? Who would you be to deny him, if you think we can decide things like that based on our ideas alone?
Likewise, if you think a man can be a woman, even with the body parts and DNA of a man, and you believe they're actually a woman, then it's all based on our perception. In that case, however, the meaning of woman falls apart, as well as man. If it's based only on our own perception, then someone could say that a woman is a type of car, and another person could say it's a feeling, and yet another could say it's a company, and on and on. If anyone is free to define what a woman is, then it comes to mean nothing. But we can't define for ourselves what a woman is. God has made the distinction for us, and we must follow.
Likewise, if you think you're no longer any gender, then what does it even mean to be a gender? If you think a person can just decide that they're no longer any gender, then that suggests that anybody can just decide to be anything. That suggests this isn't based in some physical reality, but only on our thoughts, and that we can really just decide to be anything. But that's not the case. God has made the reality clear, and we need to follow it.
If you believe, God will accept you as non-binary you’re on your way to burn in hell
Don’t be deceived by this false profit sent by the devil
