Genesis 13:13 But the men of Sodom were wicked and sinners before the Lord exceedingly.
Deut. 22:5 The woman shall not wear that which pertains unto a man, neither shall a man put on a woman's garment: for all who do such are abomination unto the Lord your God.
There has been a great burden placed upon my heart to protect my Church and God's Holiness! My prayer is that when people enter into our Sanctuary, they will instantly know they are standing upon Holy Ground! With Holy Ghost boldness and confidence, this day I declare, that satan you are defeated! As a matter of fact, you were totally defeated at the Cross! Evil and wicked spirits are not allowed to enter in and hinder the work and move of God in my Church in anyway!
I am at a place in my life where I can be very straight forward and to the point, with nothing to fear, but God Himself. A transvestite is an abomination unto the Lord my God. From Deut. 22:5, Pulpit says, "The Divinely instituted distinction between the sexes was to be sacradely observed and, in order to do this, the dress and other things appropriate to the one were not to be used by the other. Whatever tended to obliterate the distinction between the sexes tends to licentiousness."
What does the word licentiousness mean? Glad you asked... 1) lacking legal or moral restraints; especially disregarding sexual restraints 2) marked by disregard for strict rules of correctness. - Another defintion says, having no regards for accepted rules or standards. Most definetely, that fits the homosexual and transvestite, for they do not nor can they accept the Holy Word of God as their rule and Authority for their life. They have been given over by God to a reprobate mind!
Galatians 5:19 says, Now the works of the flesh are manifest, which are these; Adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lasciviousness, - Here is what Wayne Jackson wrote about lasciviousness....
The Greek word behind the English term “lascivious” is aselgeia. It occurs nine times in the New Testament. Twice it is rendered as “wantonness” (Romans 13:13; 2 Peter 2:18), and once it appears as “filthy” (2 Peter 2:7). The other six times it is translated as “lascivious” (cf. Mark 7:22; 2 Corinthians 12:21; Galatians 5:19; Ephesians 4:19; 1 Peter 4:3; Jude 4).
Lasciviousness is a gross form of wickedness that has sexual overtones in many cases. It starts in a sinful heart (Mark 7:21-22), and manifests itself in fleshly (carnal) actions (Galatians 5:19), and can lead to a state of being “past feeling” (Ephesians 4:19).
The word can connote several attitudes or actions. With reference to sexual matters it embraces the concepts of excess, unbridled lust, debauchery, and sensuality. It suggests a disregard for public decency.
William Barclay says the word conveys the idea of a person “who is so far gone in lust and desire” that he or she ceases “to care what people say or think” (p. 52). Josephus, the Jewish historian, once used the word to describe a man who indecently exposed himself to a crowd (Antiquities 20.5.3).
J.H. Thayer connected the term with such things as “wanton (acts or) manners, filthy words, indecent bodily movements,” and “unchaste handling of males and females” (pp. 79-80). It is a comprehensive term for evil and perversion (Balz, p. 169). For example, it describes the moral environment of ancient Sodom and Gomorrah (2 Peter 2:7), and one hardly needs to be reminded of the shameless practices characteristic of those communities"
Verse 21 of Galatians 5 goes on to WARN you : of the which I tell you before, as I have also told you in time past, that they which do such things shall not inherit the Kingdom of God. It makes me sick to my stomach those out there who claim to love God and Jesus and talk the "love and compassion talk," and yet you live as a filthy animal who openly rebels against what God says in the Bible.
You most likely do not even read your Bible. There was a poll given that most who profess to be Christians do not even study the Sacred Scriptures. Ignorance will be no excuse the day God calls you into account!
In a society cut off from the understanding and authority of God's Word, men and women feel free to commit adultery and practice homosexuality, transvestism and even bestiality- doing virtually anything that "feels good." Why? I tell you the answer, I already said it in the above paragraph. Millions profess Christ, but they simply do not study the Holy Bible! That is a plain fact that cannot be debated. The Word of God changes your life! The Word is alive and the Holy Spirit gives you understanding and helps you to conform to the image of Christ. Jesus even said, by their fruits you will know them! If one really views the Bible as the only real Authority in your life, then you would not commit NOR condone these abominations! And that is fact my friend
Here is some more interesting facts on the nasty, creepy word, transvestite or cross-dresser. " So is there more to be gotten out of this than a condemnation of cross-dressing on the grounds of sexual license and sympathetic magic? John H. Walton and Victor H. Matthews [5] note, "Just as clothing served as a status marker in the ancient world, it also distinguished gender. In classical contexts, cross-dressing occurred in the theater, where women were not allowed to perform, and was also an aspect of homosexual practice. Most instances in which cross-dressing or transvestism are mentioned in ancient Near Eastern texts are cultic or legal in nature. For instance, when the Ugaritic hero Aqhat is murdered, his sister Paghat puts on a male garment under her female robes in order to assume the role of blood avenger in the absence of a male relative. An Assyrian wisdom text contains a dialogue between husband and wife who propose to exchange their clothing and thus assume each other's gender roles. This may be a fertility rite or perhaps a part of a religious drama honoring a goddess. It may be this association with other religions that made transvestism an 'abomination' in Deuteronomy, but the issue may also be the blurring of gender distinctions. Hittite texts use gender-related objects as well as clothing in a number of magical rites used to influence one's sexual status or diminish or alter the gender status of an adversary. The objects of the female where mirror and distaff; those of the male, various weapons." -
This has not been a joyful teaching, but a disgusting one if fact. But God's people must know the truth behind these evil ways, that these evil people want us to accept.
I also found this short article written on the matter which I will include in mine:
"Given this evidence it is my opinion that what God finds detestable is the putting on of clothing belonging to the opposite sex in order to submerge one's gender and take on another; to become a transvestite. This verse is not condemning men who dress as women as a lark in a play or women who wear pants for riding horses etc., persons who are doing these things are not submerging their true genders, they are still male and female. It's the act of becoming a transvestite that God hates.
The New Testament says God finds the sin of homosexuality detestable; it stands to reason He's not changed His mind about transvestite behaviors. One must be careful, however, not to fall into the trap of legalism or attempting to obey the Old Covenant. Under the Old Covenant, for example, no more blends in fabric, but only pure cotton or pure rayon, etc.. No more shrimp or catfish. And the commands for sacrifices
Deuteronomy 22:5 prohibits cross-dressing. A man is not to wear women's clothes and vice versa, according to the cultural norms of the day. This deals with transvestitism or with conduct that could even give the appearance that one is engaged in such a practice. The command does not forbid unisex fashions—that is, attire that is culturally acceptable for both men and women to wear. It should also be noted here that "in the ancient Middle East, dressing in the clothing of the opposite sex was a magical practice intended to bring harm to people. For example, a transvestite male would predict that the soldiers of another army would be as weak as females" (Nelson, note on 22:5).
Upon reading this my mind began to wonder if what I have recently observed could be him trying to predict the fall of a Church? Not mine and let me tell you why. We have a great army of Prayer Warriors who have risen up in great Faith, who know and understand the Word of God. We will stand together in one mind and one accord to keep the enemy out of our camp. And you can bet your bottom dollor on that!
This is not hard, one is to repent and believe the Gospel and spend Eternal Life with the Lord Jesus Christ or one can reject the Gospel, live in rebellion to God's Word and go to Hell for all Eternity. We are in the end times and there is no room for compromise or some feel good gospel to make a person feel at ease or comfortable! No, the Work of the Holy Ghost is to bring conviction and rebuke to the sinner! Not to pat you on the back and make some excuse for you. No way, not in my Bible. Yes, God is love, but God is HOLY and we are to be Holy in all manner of conversation and lifestyle!!
Homosexuals and transvestites are of satan and therefore the person is demon possessed, they have been given over to a reprobate mind!!! It is unnatural and a great ABOMINATION in the sight of The Lord our God!
I Kings 22:46 And the remnant of the sodomites, which remained in the days of his father Asa, he took out of the land. What a Godly King Judah had. He would not allow the remnant to remain, he took them out of the land period!! Too often the people of God are willing to allow the REMNANT OF EVIL to remain in their midst. The Holy Spirit demands that everything that is evil be taken out. With the Believer evidencing Faith in the Finished Work at the Cross, the Holy Spirit enables you without reservation or hestitation to stand up and defend the Holy Word of God!
Today, even right now, gross sins of the wicked have not only crept into our schools teaching things they ought not, pushing their agenda into our kids lives, but they are also in our Churches! Certain Denominations are ordaining homosexual priests and ministers to stand in the Pulpit. Where are the Prophets? Who is left in the land to cast out this evil remnant that remains?
Again it makes me sick to see and hear girls or women call their homo friends their "besties." They are dangerously condoning something God has condemned. Romans 1:32 speaks of death! Spiritual death is a separation from God which will result in the loss of your soul, thereby sending it into hell. Lord God reveal this Truth to those who desperately need it this day, that they will repent and believe the Gospel.
Come out from among them and be ye separate, and touch not the unclean thing, is a verse that stands strong and true for this topic. But take heed, that when you do come out, that you will not get caught looking back, as Lot's wife did so very long ago. She kept looking back with desire in her heart for the sodomites. For that she became a pillar of salt. For that disobedience and for her soul desiring to stay in Sodom, it now resides in hell. Again I say, Remember Lot's wife.
In Jesus Name I pray, Amen
