Show me in scripture where Jesus Christ changed one man into a woman or visa versa. Or displayed to anyone anything aside from holiness and obedience to GOD the Father. What I have learned through the word of God is that he healed the sick, drove out demons, made the blind see, the lame walk again, raised the dead, and NEVER SINNED. And TOLD THE TRUTH. And mankind turned on THE SON OF GOD. Jesus Christ died and rose again on the 3 rd day and made us a way to be reconciled back to the Father. That’s the Jesus I know. My Saviour.
I listened to a podcast on my bible app called "Bible Threads by Dr Bruce Becker" and it the sublet series called "The Grand Ands" specifically "The Grand Ands: Truth and Love". Well it lead me to googling Pastor Mike's book called "Gay and God..."which lead me to a podcast of a Q&A with questions from some high schoolers and finally I found this message. (Sorry i just wanted to tell of the path that lead me here and also site some wonderful, Christian, bible fueled word.) Anyway, it is so important that we as Christians learn what Christ expects of us in whatever situation we find ourselves and esp when we meet people, that we are able to show the love of Christ because God wants us to love. He loves us so much that He sent Jesus to die for our sins so that we may live, John 3:16. So I'm glad the Holy Spirit and my curiosity lead me to these ministries and the part 2, which I will am eager to watch but it's a 1:15am, because they are helping me to address the issues of my heart of love and truth.
People need to understand that feeling transgender is NOT A CHOICE. But one has to decide how they will live their life. Self-honoring or God-honoring. I am heartbroken for those who have to live with this identify issue. May God give them strength. And may we not judge others because their sins are different than ours. Those without sin .. cast the first stone.
Paulette Quesnel we are not to judge however we as Christians are called to sharpen one another and keep each other on the Christian path. Living in sin should be called out and rejected as there are plenty of examples in the Bible of even Jesus calling out sin. Jesus gets the sin and loves the sinner, we should love all people but detest their sin and help them move away from their sin.
Paulette Quesnel yes your missing the point here I know I’m a sinner. The difference is I know my sin and I strive to not live in sin. People who continually live in sin and don’t try to not live in sin should be removed form church. We all fall short of the glory of God. There’s a difference between sinning and perpetually living in sin and knowing it and refuse to stop sinning
@@CharlesLang676 Oh I get the point. I just don't like how people are so quick to point out 1 Corinthians 5:9-13 when it comes to a sin they have never had to face. 9 I wrote to you in my letter not to associate with sexually immoral people- 10 not at all meaning the people of this world who are immoral, or the greedy and swindlers, or idolaters. In that case you would have to leave this world. 11 But now I am writing to you that you must not associate with anyone who claims to be a brother or sister but is sexually immoral or greedy, an idolater or slanderer, a drunkard or swindler. Do not even eat with such people. 12 What business is it of mine to judge those outside the church? Are you not to judge those inside? 13 God will judge those outside. “Expel the wicked person from among you.” Paul was speaking of a Christian who was having an incestuous affair and didn't think there was anything wrong with it. Someone who has an identity issue is not being sexually immoral. I understand what Paul was saying. But unless the Transgender person is dressing as the mind sex instead of the body sex then they are not sinning. And even if they did, unless they are trying to come to church cross dressed or go out in public that way than their sin is no different than a person who looks at pornography on their home computer. If a person comes to church with a 12-pack of beer and gets drunk then 1 Cor 5:13 applies to them too.
@@CharlesLang676 You sound like nothing short of a pharisee as you said "The difference is I know my sin and I strive to not live in sin. People who continually live in sin and don't try to not live in sin should be removed from church." First of all what makes you think you know your sin so well and try so hard to not live in sin that you deserve more to be in church than certain people who struggle different kinds of sins from yours? Second of all you don't judge whether others are aware of his or her sin well and whether they are trying 'enough' to not live in their sins than you do with yours. Last but not least if you have enough time to reflect on your sins, maybe it'd help you to look back once again on what you wrote there above. You are excluding certain group of people (who are also God's dearly beloved children btw) from God's love when you have no authority at all. Please take my sincere apologies in case if you are God himself.
Those suicide statistics (42%) are not backed up by robust research. When you dig into the "research" it's nearly all small, self-selected surveys. Suicide is a notoriously difficult thing to study. However, a study out of Sweden, which followed post-surgical patients for over 30 years, found that after sex reassignment surgery, mental health outcomes are abysmal, and people are 19 times more likely than the general population to attempt suicide. Transition is not a treatment for gender dysphoria.
Please check the USTS or Trevor Project for more up-to-date data. Post surgical regret is only 0.4%. (Bustos, 2021) Respectfully, your conclusion is incorrect: _Long-Term Follow-Up of Transsexual Persons Undergoing Sex Reassignment Surgery: Cohort Study in Sweden_ Dhejne, 2011 (PMC3043071) "This study design sheds new light on transsexual persons' health after sex reassignment. It does not, however, address whether sex reassignment is an effective treatment or not." As a trans woman, I guarantee you it IS an effective treatment.

Is it not GOD who forms us in our mothers womb?It is by HIS WILL how we are made and whether that be man or woman. Casting off self is hard for all of us some way or another. But we have to put GODS WILL above our will. No one said it would be easy. But YES it is a choice. There is always A CHOICE. That is GOD GIVEN. It is FREE WILL. And people are free to believe that they have no choice if that’s what THEY DESIRE. But I assure you it is not what GOD DESIRES. HE formed people the way HE intended them to be. So really it boils down to DO YOU LOVE GOD MORE THAN SELF??? Because if you do HE WILL GIVE YOU GHE STRENGTH TO OVERCOME THROUGH HIS SON. BUT IT STARTS WITH A CHOICE!!! HIM OR YOU

Parents need to know that identifying as trans is currently a huge trend -- even a social contagion -- among tweens, teens and young adults. Kids are being told online that "you are trans" is the explanation/solution for all sorts of challenges adolescents face, such as feeling same-sex attraction, feeling like they don't fit in due to autism or ADHD, trauma due to being sexually assaulted or bullied, feeling uncomfortable with the bodily changes of puberty, among many other challenges. I recommend the book "Irreversible Damage: The Transgender Craze Seducing Our Daughters" by Abigail Shrier. Shrier's book focuses on girls but this phenomenon applies to boys as well. While it is kind to be accepting of people who are transgender, parents must be very careful when their child comes to them and says they are trans because kids are being told that all sorts of uncomfortable yet normal teen experiences and feelings are gender dysphoria. While Mr. Novotny mentions the 0.6% figure, some high schools are reporting as many as 5% of kids identifying as trans. Please know the experiences today's transgender adults went through 15 or 20 years ago are not all that applicable to what is going on with teens today; then there is autogynephilia, which is something many adult males denies exists. Look it up; it is quite interesting and definitely exists. Also please note that there is no scientific basis for the term "born in the wrong body." That phrase is simply a euphemism kids who feel they do not align with society's current male/female stereotypes. Boys who like makeup and pink are still boys; girls who like short hair and sports are still girls; there is nothing "wrong" with their bodies. Please read Ms. Shrier's book for more information.
@MsMarian Rogers I didn't state all trans people have autogynephilia or that only males can have it. I just mentioned it and stated that it is an interesting phenomemon which many males deny exists, and that people should look it up and read about it. I personally believe there are some males who transition in order to fulfill autogynephilic sexual fantasies. As far as pseudoscience goes, "born in the wrong body" is pseudoscience. "Female brain in a male body" is pseudoscience. It is not transphobic to want kids to get top-notch, thorough, deep-diving counseling before affirming them as trans, especially with the skyrocketing number of kids, many autistic, who are saying they are trans after experiencing bullying, sexual abuse, or other trauma. These teens need a cautious approach and people in general need to know that today's teen cases are much different than the rare cases from 15 or 20 years ago. twitter.com/zaelefty/status/1280971658719789060

Deu 22:5 has a problem: - My body is male so wearing female clothing is a sin against the body - My mind is female so wearing male clothing is a sin against the heart Since everyone can be Christian and saved, there must be something wrong with your interpretation. Christians follow a different law (Heb 7:11-28) Love God and Love your neighbor. All the laws and prophets hang on these 2 commandments. (Matt 22:37-40) And that is what some of you were. But you were washed, you were sanctified, you were justified in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ and by the Spirit of our God. (1 Cor 6:11) 1 Cor 6:12 starts, "I have the right to do anything". Paul does not dispute this statement. He puts limits on it: make your actions beneficial and don't let anyone or anything be your master (except Jesus.)
Unbelief and Its Consequences 18 ¶ For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who hold the truth in unrighteousness; 19 Because that which may be known of God is manifest in them; for God hath shewed it unto them. 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: 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. 22 Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools, 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. 24 ¶ Wherefore God also gave them up to uncleanness through the lusts of their own hearts, to dishonour their own bodies between themselves: 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. 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: 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. 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; 29 Being filled with all unrighteousness, fornication, wickedness, covetousness, maliciousness; full of envy, murder, debate, deceit, malignity; whisperers, 30 Backbiters, haters of God, despiteful, proud, boasters, inventors of evil things, disobedient to parents, 31 Without understanding, covenantbreakers, without natural affection, implacable, unmerciful: 32 Who knowing the judgment of God, that they which commit such things are worthy of death, not only do the same, but have pleasure in them that do them.
You should be telling them to repent and rid themselves from the stronghold of satan not condoning the behavior. It's true the devil is truly in the church. There is lots of blood on your hands preacher.
I too believe in the Holy Bible. However, Catholicism left out & put in what they believed to be the unnecessary, or necessary, of two evils. So, I guess my struggle with the transgender subject is...Why would God put this dysphoria on anybody? Do we all get second, third, fourth chances to get our lives right? Are we reincarnated? Were we once a male and then born as a female or vice versa? I guess when the second coming happens and the veil is lifted, hopefully we'll know the answers. Not just to these questions, but many, many more! God Bless you all and keep you safe.
Mel, I guess I have a few questions, the Catholic's Bible is far older than the Holy Bible, assuming you are talking about the King James Bible. I do not think God this dysphoria on anyone, no more than why you born in the city that you were.
@@marciethomas5766 I doubt that God did either. The KJ version is a Catholic Bible or so I thought. But also wasn't it the Catholic church that decided what was to be taken out and left in? Hence all my questions in my previous comment. Mostly meant as a wondering comment.
@@melbags9789 No, the KJ is not the Catholic Bible. The Catholic Bible has more book in the Old Testament. And it is up in the air how and who decided what books should or should not be ib the Bible.
@@marciethomas5766 I didn't say it was THE Catholic Bible but rather meant to say translated from catholic church. Guess I best get my facts straight 👍✌
The Catholic's teachings were one of the biggest eyebrow raisers for me in high school and community college! I went there because were really good schools with great accreditation, and not for the catholic components. But sometimes it was mandatory for students to attend mass if it was a special one but we didn't have to participate but just attend. I picked up on some of the teachings over the years and some of them are definitely not biblically inclined, and they add in stuff that they want. I could get into details but that would require an essay lol! Also, God did not put dysphoria on anybody. These challenges were put upon us by sin, as what Adam and Eve did affected the entirety of forthcoming human kind, including us today. Once we come to that conclusion that it's not our fault and that it's the enemy trying to control us, we can give it to God wholeheartedly and ask for his healing!
Can everyone pray for my son and feel like you should have been a woman and he has same sex desires he's also dealing with psychosis features hearing strong thoughts on his mind
This is so hard for me to understand. When I was a child I was a tomboy but never felt like a boy. Chaz Bono I sympathize, but don’t understand. Does this lead to homosexuality?
I was the same, Darlene, a tomboy, but never felt like a boy. Like you I find it hard to understand. I’d love to be a good singer but I don’t claim to have been born with the wrong vocal chords 😆 People don’t like their noses, breast size, etc and have plastic surgery, aren’t these all worldly things we shouldn’t be focusing on? Another thing about those spending money on surgery for vanity, how many cataract operations could they be funding for people in poor countries, so they can SEE. Look at Nick Vujicic, born without limbs, and see how wonderful he is at sharing the Gospel. I love his videos. Gender is a sacred gift from God ✝️❤️
No, it doesn't! Children and teenagers often have different personalities as they are growing up, with some girls not into the extreme feminine stuff and some guys not being athletic but bubbly and energetic. That doesn't indicate homosexuality per say. Everyone is different! My sister was tomboy-ish in her teens and now she's as feminine as ever in her late 20s!
I feel the same way, it's called nonbionary, it's extremely frustrating, i am distraught bc I don't get what I'm supposed to do, but it's called nonbionary and most ppl use they/them when they identify this way
you pastored this young lady wrong,,shame on you..Genesis 2:24.,That is not love one another its lust,,its wrong. 1Coronthians6:9-11...You need to preach the Gospel death burial and resurrection of Jesus Christ paid for are sins that we may be righteous enough to be in the presence of God thru faith alone not of works. John3;16 Eph.2;8,9,,Than you needs to preach what God says you need to stop lying,,Jeremiah 14:14 God's warns you false not Biblical pastor, Gods holds you higher punishment for false Teachers,,its not dysphoria,,your not born that way,butt your Lgbtq culture has been around since Sodom and Gomorrah and yall are trying to say its ok and know they are going after kids younger and younger to plant the evil seed of lust to try and justify their sexual choice of lust its not love.
“We know that the law is not meant for a righteous person, but for the lawless and rebellious, for the ungodly and sinful, for the unholy and irreverent, for those who kill their fathers and mothers, for murderers, for the sexually immoral and homosexuals, for slave traders, liars, perjurers, and for whatever else is contrary to the sound teaching” 1 Timothy 1:9-10 CSB “I wrote to you in a letter not to associate with sexually immoral people. I did not mean the immoral people of this world or the greedy and swindlers or idolaters; otherwise you would have to leave the world. But actually, I wrote you not to associate with anyone who claims to be a brother or sister and is sexually immoral or greedy, an idolater or verbally abusive, a drunkard or a swindler. Do not even eat with such a person.” 1 Corinthians 5:9-11 CSB The Bible is very clear on this topic, sexual immorality is a sin in all situations plain and simple truth. We as Christians are called to help lead the astray to Christ. Taking a mental sexual immoral illness and justifying it because someone doesn’t choose it doesn’t make it right or justifiable we are call to love yes, however the Bible calls us to remove the sexual immoral from our congregation “It is actually reported that there is sexual immorality among you, and the kind of sexual immorality that is not even tolerated among the Gentiles - a man is sleeping with his father’s wife. And you are arrogant! Shouldn’t you be filled with grief and remove from your congregation the one who did this? Even though I am absent in the body, I am present in spirit. As one who is present with you in this way, I have already pronounced judgment on the one who has been doing such a thing.” 1 Corinthians 5:1-3 CSB Do not mistake love and grace for the acceptance of sin. God is VERY clear that all sin should be washed from our bodies and cast out of our presence.
With regards to removing the sexually immoral from the congregation, I believe Jesus provides guidance in Matthew 5:28 And then offers further guidance in John 8:7... I suppose my follow up question would be, what kind of congregation would be left?
May the Lord continue to bless and cover this ministry. I crave to be around Christians who act like CHRIST

Love God and Love your neighbor. All the laws and prophets hang on these 2 commandments. (Matt 22:37-40)
And that is what some of you were. But you were washed, you were sanctified, you were justified in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ and by the Spirit of our God. (1 Cor 6:11)
1 Cor 6:12 starts, "I have the right to do anything". Paul does not dispute this statement. He puts limits on it: make your actions beneficial and don't let anyone or anything be your master (except Jesus.)
What about the INTERSEX that is neither male or female.
What of them. What about the MALE that is neither female or intersex.
Unbelief and Its Consequences
18 ¶ For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who hold the truth in unrighteousness;
19 Because that which may be known of God is manifest in them; for God hath shewed it unto them.
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:
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.
22 Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools,
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.
24 ¶ Wherefore God also gave them up to uncleanness through the lusts of their own hearts, to dishonour their own bodies between themselves:
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.
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:
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.
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;
29 Being filled with all unrighteousness, fornication, wickedness, covetousness, maliciousness; full of envy, murder, debate, deceit, malignity; whisperers,
30 Backbiters, haters of God, despiteful, proud, boasters, inventors of evil things, disobedient to parents,
31 Without understanding, covenantbreakers, without natural affection, implacable, unmerciful:
32 Who knowing the judgment of God, that they which commit such things are worthy of death, not only do the same, but have pleasure in them that do them.
You should be telling them to repent and rid themselves from the stronghold of satan not condoning the behavior. It's true the devil is truly in the church. There is lots of blood on your hands preacher.
You still love the person regardless if they decide to be transgender.
People can't decide to be trans or gay, its just who they are. But at least you agree to love someone either way
I too believe in the Holy Bible. However, Catholicism left out & put in what they believed to be the unnecessary, or necessary, of two evils. So, I guess my struggle with the transgender subject is...Why would God put this dysphoria on anybody? Do we all get second, third, fourth chances to get our lives right? Are we reincarnated? Were we once a male and then born as a female or vice versa? I guess when the second coming happens and the veil is lifted, hopefully we'll know the answers. Not just to these questions, but many, many more! God Bless you all and keep you safe.
Mel, I guess I have a few questions, the Catholic's Bible is far older than the Holy Bible, assuming you are talking about the King James Bible. I do not think God this dysphoria on anyone, no more than why you born in the city that you were.
@@marciethomas5766 I doubt that God did either.
The KJ version is a Catholic Bible or so I thought. But also wasn't it the Catholic church that decided what was to be taken out and left in? Hence all my questions in my previous comment. Mostly meant as a wondering comment.
@@melbags9789 No, the KJ is not the Catholic Bible. The Catholic Bible has more book in the Old Testament. And it is up in the air how and who decided what books should or should not be ib the Bible.
@@marciethomas5766 I didn't say it was THE Catholic Bible but rather meant to say translated from catholic church. Guess I best get my facts straight 👍✌
The Catholic's teachings were one of the biggest eyebrow raisers for me in high school and community college! I went there because were really good schools with great accreditation, and not for the catholic components. But sometimes it was mandatory for students to attend mass if it was a special one but we didn't have to participate but just attend. I picked up on some of the teachings over the years and some of them are definitely not biblically inclined, and they add in stuff that they want. I could get into details but that would require an essay lol! Also, God did not put dysphoria on anybody. These challenges were put upon us by sin, as what Adam and Eve did affected the entirety of forthcoming human kind, including us today. Once we come to that conclusion that it's not our fault and that it's the enemy trying to control us, we can give it to God wholeheartedly and ask for his healing!
Why dont you say what Paul said what God said..
Can everyone pray for my son and feel like you should have been a woman and he has same sex desires he's also dealing with psychosis features hearing strong thoughts on his mind
Said a prayer for your son, for God to touch him & help him with his issues, in the name of Jesus Christ 🙏🏻✝️❤️
Very good video. I would like to hear more about men`s rights in abortion and cuckoldry.
Adam was both male and female.Genesis 5
This is so hard for me to understand. When I was a child I was a tomboy but never felt like a boy. Chaz Bono I sympathize, but don’t understand. Does this lead to homosexuality?
I was the same, Darlene, a tomboy, but never felt like a boy. Like you I find it hard to understand. I’d love to be a good singer but I don’t claim to have been born with the wrong vocal chords 😆
People don’t like their noses, breast size, etc and have plastic surgery, aren’t these all worldly things we shouldn’t be focusing on?
Another thing about those spending money on surgery for vanity, how many cataract operations could they be funding for people in poor countries, so they can SEE.
Look at Nick Vujicic, born without limbs, and see how wonderful he is at sharing the Gospel. I love his videos.
Gender is a sacred gift from God ✝️❤️
No, it doesn't! Children and teenagers often have different personalities as they are growing up, with some girls not into the extreme feminine stuff and some guys not being athletic but bubbly and energetic. That doesn't indicate homosexuality per say. Everyone is different! My sister was tomboy-ish in her teens and now she's as feminine as ever in her late 20s!
Hi
I don't feel like guy or a woman . What would you call it ?
I feel the same way, it's called nonbionary, it's extremely frustrating, i am distraught bc I don't get what I'm supposed to do, but it's called nonbionary and most ppl use they/them when they identify this way
how do you know you dont feel like a aman when you've never known what other men feel like?
we need to talk on this topics, with love
Pastor Mike, did the lady go through hormone shots and surgeries?
We've got snakes in the comments section.

John3;16 Eph.2;8,9,,Than you needs to preach what God says you need to stop lying,,Jeremiah 14:14 God's warns you false not Biblical pastor, Gods holds you higher punishment for false Teachers,,its not dysphoria,,your not born that way,butt your Lgbtq culture has been around since Sodom and Gomorrah and yall are trying to say its ok and know they are going after kids younger and younger to plant the evil seed of lust to try and justify their sexual choice of lust its not love.
Gender identy book and not Biblically stating the truth of God's word..
This is a false teacher feeding itchy ears ,,.
“We know that the law is not meant for a righteous person, but for the lawless and rebellious, for the ungodly and sinful, for the unholy and irreverent, for those who kill their fathers and mothers, for murderers, for the sexually immoral and homosexuals, for slave traders, liars, perjurers, and for whatever else is contrary to the sound teaching”
1 Timothy 1:9-10 CSB
“I wrote to you in a letter not to associate with sexually immoral people. I did not mean the immoral people of this world or the greedy and swindlers or idolaters; otherwise you would have to leave the world. But actually, I wrote you not to associate with anyone who claims to be a brother or sister and is sexually immoral or greedy, an idolater or verbally abusive, a drunkard or a swindler. Do not even eat with such a person.”
1 Corinthians 5:9-11 CSB
The Bible is very clear on this topic, sexual immorality is a sin in all situations plain and simple truth. We as Christians are called to help lead the astray to Christ. Taking a mental sexual immoral illness and justifying it because someone doesn’t choose it doesn’t make it right or justifiable we are call to love yes, however the Bible calls us to remove the sexual immoral from our congregation
“It is actually reported that there is sexual immorality among you, and the kind of sexual immorality that is not even tolerated among the Gentiles - a man is sleeping with his father’s wife. And you are arrogant! Shouldn’t you be filled with grief and remove from your congregation the one who did this? Even though I am absent in the body, I am present in spirit. As one who is present with you in this way, I have already pronounced judgment on the one who has been doing such a thing.”
1 Corinthians 5:1-3 CSB
Do not mistake love and grace for the acceptance of sin. God is VERY clear that all sin should be washed from our bodies and cast out of our presence.
With regards to removing the sexually immoral from the congregation, I believe Jesus provides guidance in Matthew 5:28
And then offers further guidance in John 8:7...
I suppose my follow up question would be, what kind of congregation would be left?
