Does God Love Trans People? Trans VS Ex-Trans
Вставка
- Опубліковано 29 лис 2024
- A trans person/social entrepreneur and an ex-trans person/Christian came together to see if they could discuss the transgender experience and spirituality with authenticity, love, and truthfulness. Can they overcome the stigma and speak to one another with understanding?

Transgender people are just people like us who are victimized by the media and society to become even more confused.
We all have responsibility to help each other including about *Sex* that seems taboo.
The Bible already gave us clear definition about everything. God wanted us to be like Him in every way.
Sex is just one thing.
The 10 commandment is the main agenda that we should obey.
When we obey the Law, we all will comeback to Heaven standard.
These 2 beautiful people really showing about humility.
I hope trans people watch this video as inspiration so they can lead to God.
Leviticus 18 and 20
“If a man lies with a male with a woman, both of them have committed an abomination; they shall surely be put to death; their blood is upon them.” Chapter 20 verse 13.
God does not like trans people, end of.
A “transgender” person never could lead you to God.. a transgender Is a person that goes against the identity he or she was conceived and born with .. period..
@@WeDoLoveU How can you say you love GOD and hate how He created you? You were already beautifully and wonderfully made just the way He made you. So why do you hate what He created? Why do you hate yourself the way GOD made you to be? Unless you become Saved through His Plan of Salvation you will never know of a true relationship with Him. Acts 2:38.
@Calvin375 You clearly have love deep inside your heart. Unfortunately you never use it properly yet. I totally understand your position. When you confused, just hold on to Jesus.
*Put Jesus first in your heart, and put all Negative thinking behind you.*
This is how you can love yourself as the first step to love others.
If you really love Jesus, hear what He said in:
*John 14:15*
He said he was either going to kill himself for God or transition. Beware of false spirits God will never push you towards suicide it’s the enemy that puts these thoughts into our heads.
Being trans is very scientific!
@@joe_mama_ In what ways???
@@dubbelkastrull Trans men have male brains. If he took a brain scan it would come out as male.
@@joe_mama_
Is that what you meant with "trans is scientific"?
@@dubbelkastrull Would you agree that men and women have different brains?
I feel like the question if God loves trans people is so backwards. Of course he does. God’s love isn’t contingent on who you are or where you are.
He loves us. But we can sin against ourselves.
Yeaa he does but he also doesn't love our sins and neither should we
@@exspencivve very well said.
@@exspencivve that wasn’t the question though. God loves us ALL period.
And yes, we shouldn’t love the sin but other’s sin is not an excuse for me to treat them any differently. Sin is sin. We are all sinners.
Yeah Gods love for us was demonstrated on the cross. The more important question is do we love Him? Like the lady in pink mentioned.. how can we love Him if we reject his creation as if He made a mistake? We pick & choose what we like & what makes us comfortable & reject truth & Gods creation. Denying our flesh actually produces authentic freedom because Gods very nature is good. He knows way more than we do & has our best interest @ heart. If we don’t trust that we cannot glorify Him.
“If i re-create myself, i give glory to myself.” - thats heavy!!!
Sooo heavy!

It's definitely true!
So heavy that he will sunk so fast in the bottom of the ocean and cannot swim back to the surface.
@@kingchris1353 unless she turns around and realizes the willful sin she is indulging in Jesus will swim to the bottom of that ocean and save her. God willing she does.
I love what she said "we were created to glorify God, not ourselves". What she said reminds me of how far we have fallen from God's grace and his original plan, that we are now sitting here today in confusion, fear, and Pride.
“Confusion, fear, and pride” you’re so right 🤭
Amen
I want to be her friend, she’s so rooted, encouraging and clear headed. Evidently has the Holy Spirit.
how weak of a god to create beings to not live their life but to worship him endlessly. how prideful, how conceited. all the things he said you shouldn't be.
This is so good.
“Even if I struggled with those feelings the rest of my life it was enough to follow Christ”- wow !
Ikr, just Amen!
The same type of faith as those persecuted for Christ. It’s just sad we don’t see that much anymore, which is telling and should open our eyes.
God bless!
Amen. 🙏🏽
Deep very deep. Becuade Jesus sacrifice him body. Just Becuase something feels good dosent mean we should do it
Fast and seek God and he will deliver you from that stuff were you no longer struggle with it anymore
I like the fact that the atmosphere was just "I'm sharing my opinion" and no one was begin condemned
for GOD so loved the world that HE gave HIS only begotten SON that whoever believeth in HIM should not perish but have eternal life"-the Gospel of JESUS written by john 3:16."But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name:"-the Gospel of JESUS written by john 1:12. hi! JESUS loves you and died for you if you accept HIM!

She keeps bringing it back to scripture with a compassionate appeal. Love seeing this
So right. It comes down to "I feel" versus "God says".
Exactly!!
Yes!!!! She is....Love it!
She nailed it
The scriptures are TRUE and never be reversed. It's not what we think God thinks.
“You cannot claim to love Me & yet reject my creation” - so powerful. 🙏🏻
ew no
wowwwww
Amen.
yeah, that's a fact.
Romans 13:8-10
Owe no one anything, except to love each other, for the one who loves another has fulfilled the law. For the commandments, “You shall not commit adultery, You shall not murder, You shall not steal, You shall not covet,” and any other commandment, are summed up in this word: “You shall love your neighbor as yourself.” Love does no wrong to a neighbor; therefore love is the fulfilling of the law.
Romans 14:13-14
Therefore let us not pass judgment on one another any longer, but rather decide never to put a stumbling block or hindrance in the way of a brother. I know and am persuaded in the Lord Jesus that nothing is unclean in itself, but it is unclean for anyone who thinks it unclean
If you don't have experience, with this you don't know what it is like. This community faces enough prosecution... Jesus died for our sins and there are many other things we can prioritize besides dressing as male or female. We can look to other things within ourselves that can improve how we treat others... to love others like ourselves. Why do we focus on this aspect? How does this lifestyle impact you? Perhaps this was important at a time when we had to multiply to survive... but now there are higher priorities. I pray that God opens peoples eyes to discern what the priority really is... and the consequences of their actions. You have to pick and choose your battles and I don't believe this is one that should be promoted. If anything, this is pushing people away from God WHICH IS WAY WORST. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE UNDERSTAND THAT STOPPING PEOPLE FROM PUSHING OTHER PEOPLE AWAY FROM GOD IS THE PRIORITY. Not proving yourself right... Not condemning people.
Why can't we all just have calm discussions like this, they were both so respectful.
Because ever man and every woman have different emotions 😁
The emotions sometimes win calm.
We’re learning. We live in good times. Some people will still get it wrong, we all will, but wow! What an example.
Amen 💜
I think when we actually care about the other person it changes how we talk to each other. We can often see each other as enemies or worse. We have a way of dehumanizing each other when we disagree.
Sexuality is a very significant force in our life and it can really effect us. Lust is a big problem for a lot of people and men especially. I think that men have failed to protect sexuality and healthy sexual practices. The male sex drive is incredibly powerful. Likewise women are very sexual creatures.
Why is there so much confusion, frustration, hurt/pain, and dysfunction with human sexuality? I don’t know the answer except that I think that whatever evil forces might be at work they attack our most vulnerable parts. Hurting human sexuality has huge consequences not just for one person but for so many. We need the truth, we need compassion, we need self-control, we need genuine love, we need healing, and we need a purpose that goes beyond our fragile identities.
I hope that people who have struggles with core identity like gender and sexuality will be loved and find the love of a good God. We need to accept people where they are but we need to speak the truth with kindness.
“If anyone wants to follow Me, he must *deny himself* , pick up his cross, and follow Me” -Matthew 16:24
Exactly what came to mind!
Literally promoting suffering because of undemonstrated religious beliefs. How do you sleep at night?
@@Maksie0 do you have a child who always want to eat dessert and you stop him and try to give him something healthy but he/she doesn't like and he started to cry and you still force him to do it because you know is good
Yea suffering for christ is like that, if you don't follow him you go to hell.
Remember not all suffering is good. You can do drugs and suffer because of what you did.
But suffering for christ is different. It's like when you want to get a promotion you do the work. You suffer but you get the promotion
So if you want to follow christ you are going to suffer because you are not following the world but you follow christ who is not from this world.
Maksie0 you want the truth or you want hell?
@@BenDover4m3 There has never been demonstrable evidence for the existence of hell.
Love it when she falls back on scripture repeatedly! She embodies Jesus's teaching to "deny himself, and take up his cross and follow Me"
Amen
Jesus always says deny the flesh. the thing is they talked about Jesus which she is definitely correct but you have to remember the opposite of Jesus that creature is messing around with people's lives by making them think that they should be a different gender. They're not they don't see that they always blame it on God and they never blame it on that that creature below the Earth.
Yess
@@lillydejesus9510 what creature below the earth are you referring to? If its satan you are referring to then we can be sure that he is not below the earth. We are told that satan is here on earth and never are we told that he is below the earth. This idea comes from pagan mythology that there is a God of the underworld which is found no where in scripture. We are told that satan will some day be cast into the lake of fire in revelation 20:10 so if hes already there then there would be no need to cast him where he already resides.
1 peter 5:8 Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion, walketh about, seeking whom he may devour.
job 1:7 And the LORD said to Satan, “From where do you come?” So Satan answered the LORD and said, “From going to and fro on the earth, and from walking back and forth on it.
ephesians 2:2 Wherein in time past ye walked according to the course of this world, according to the prince of the power of the air, the spirit that now worketh in the children of disobedience:
also this idea that its satan or demons that "make" people do things is false. There are definitely spirits at work but they do not make us do anything, they can temp us with things that are already in our hearts but the choice to live in sin is ours and ours alone. We are responsible for our choices and no one else.
@@lillydejesus9510 He is male, God made him male/spirit. Adam and Eve through sinning made him female/flesh. Trans people are literally with the mindset of who they are since birth on an instinctual basis. It is God given.
This young woman has been delivered, no doubt, she is in her right mind to glorify God!
Love how she quotes scripture just like Jesus “it is written” not just basing everything on her feelings and emotions cause the heart is wicked and deceitful.
Yes, very true
All i do and our fellow brothers and sistefs in Christ do is for glory to God our only God our Father in Heaven through Jesus Christ our Lord.
I was thinking the exact same thing. Not to be mean but she clearly knows the scripture way better than him. And when we read the scripture and truly accept it in our hearts as the direct word from God then our minds are renewed and God speaks to us what we have to do and how we have to be to please Him. So often we are sadly superficial in our faith, as she said. We think God died for us and that‘s great and now I‘ll go and do whatever I want with no hesitation or not following boundaries set by the Bible. I‘m so sorry but what I see from him is a superficial kind of general thought process that the world has too. Saying things that are based on our emotions and to please us, not on the Bible to please our Good Father.
shes not even quoting scripter shes just quoting the generic things you hear pastors speak in church.
@@muresanmiriam4778 idk bu her logic she shouldn't be waring mixed fabriks it says not to fo that in the bible
This is what America needs; civil discourse. I’m tired of seeing heated and hostile dialogue between bitter/uneducated conservatives and progressives. They both seem to be lovely and collected people. Great choices.

transphobia xx
@@kikis_cat how is that transphobia? It's quite LITERALLY telling people not to hate what God made them.
She has the humility that I have been praying for forever. Incredible. Praise the Lord for her life
That's perfectly said
The Lord has nothing to do with transgender he created them male and female this man rejects God's creation which makes him evil. You'd better go back a check what you're praising cause right now it's a lie you are praising...😊
Phil 4:5 indeed!.. and I love how she pointed out that Jesus took on a human body in the likeness of _sinful_ flesh for sin, and condemned sin in the flesh (Romans 8:3):.... wow! Now if *_anyone_* had a right to complain that they did not deserve or want of fit into their own body, it would be Jesus! And yet it was not just his willingness to take on flesh but His willingness to lay down His own life as the example of how we ought to be committed to the brethren (1Pet 2:21) that God loved Him (John 10:17)
@@inTruthbyGrace wow. That is incredibly encouraging and has added even more depth to the incarnation of Jesus in my heart. Thank you for saying all of that. I believe, as the gender discussion is revving up, the fact that Christ FULLY understands the trans populations’ plights and yet committed to His incarnation fully to the point of death…that will be an important part of sharing the gospel going forward. God bless you!
“Our truth can not be based on feelings” Woman in Pink. Boy she has got it down! God is really using her!
That's literally what being human is. Feelings, instinct. If you're not basing your truth on your own personal feelings what are you basing it on? I hope you figure that out someday and learn how to truly be happy.
@@kieranshae feelings hold no objective realities. If i were to base the things i believe off of what i felt i would be changing my beliefs every second. Truth comes from objective realities. God is objective, the Bible is objective. His Word stands firm and does not change. He is the same yesterday, today, and forever. Objective truth is so much more reliable than the way i feel at any given moment.
Oh ya and i am truly happy because i put my trust in my Savior Jesus Christ who forgives me of my sin and has given me eternal life. He offers the same for you too!
@@kieranshae I agree
@@kieranshae I think I know where you're coming from bc feelings are definitely a part of who we are as humans but we are so much more than feeling or instinctually controlled creatures. We were created with the ability to reason. :)
Here's an example: I feel hungry. My instinct is to eat foods that make my tastebuds feel happy like pizza and ice cream and steaks, etc. My reason, however, tells me that if I want good long-term health I should make healthier choices and not give in to these instincts every day. Sometimes it means eating some veggies that are not so exciting. Health (unfortunately) won't come by satisfying my feelings and desires. Luckily I have reason which helps me make smart choices.
No matter how happy pizza makes me it will never be healthy enough for daily consumption so my feelings have to give way to facts and reason.
Did I make sense? Lol If not, feel free to ignore my comment. :)
Amazing! This is just what I needed to hear! I also made the decision to de-transition (die to my old selfish desires), pick up my cross and follow Jesus recently. This by far is one of the hardest journeys and is also such a lonely, narrow road, even being faced with persecution from peers I can only begin to imagine what the road ahead looks like. Thank you again so much for having this conversation so openly.
Praise Jesus!!! God is holding you on this journey and will not let you fall! I am so happy for you.
"The LORD makes firm the steps of the one who delights in him; though you may stumble, you will not fall, for the LORD upholds you with his hand."
God bless you 🙏🏼❤️
You're never alone. I pray God places people in your life to strengthen you in Him and in this new path you've decided to walk on. Your experiences are not in vain.
Also, look up Jackie Hill-Perry.
He is with you! ❤
Wow, that is amazing news! Those who believe in Christ have eternal life, will never be condemned for their sins, and have already passed from death into life. Please read John 5:24 - we already have victory in Christ, so we can't give up the rest of the battle on earth! Do not discouraged by peers who may deny your experience and journey - they can't fully know the power of your transformation through the Holy Spirit unless or until they experience it themselves, so don't give their voices an undeserved pedestal. Whether the journey is detransition or anything else, people pleasing/worship is a strong temptation and potential idol, and God calls us just to be obedient to Him, so don't get distracted by wanting others to be pleased with your journey. In time, if their hearts aren't hardened, they will see the fruit of what Christ is doing in you, and your path may even be the start of their conversion to Christ. All the best to you, and stay protected in prayer, scripture, and true fellowship!
Yeah... She's right. It's not about us. It was (never) about us. It's about Him, glorifying Him.
Which is why this guy transitioned, so he can glorify Him with an authentic self!
@@totalcontrol4205 Then Jesus told his disciples, "If anyone would come after me, let him deny himself and take up his cross and follow me.

What kind of insecure god you have lol he needs us to glorify him?
@@totalcontrol4205 these type of people never listen or even try to accept so there’s no use 😩 no point in even responding to em
Spiritual Gazi we are made to glorify Him. it is literally why He created us and our ultimate purpose, not a career or money or popularity or anything else. We are made in His imagine and through His power so it only makes sense that our self-identity should be God himself. He doesn't "need" our validation, He gave us free will but those who are His followers must live for God
The way this woman knows her scripture is incredible. Memorizing Bible verses is hard, let alone be able to recite them out of thin air like she did.
Her mother runs bible classes.
I noticed I was able to do it as I read the Bible more and talked about God more. I slowly started to remember a lot of scriptures.
I'd think memorizing its not the most important virtue, or what there is most to admire in this person.
Ikr, also the Holyspirit helps us to remember scripture 🤍
Yes! Listening to her say them from the bottom of her heart and with that passion brought me to tears. What a testimony!!!
I have a lot of LGBT family and I come with an almost unholdable level of compassion and empathy. I'm almost in tears hearing her say that she realized she was willing to follow Jesus even if her feelings never changed. She surrendered, and God then changed her feelings after she surrendered and said "you are right and I am not". Isn't that all of our testimonies?? Different struggles, but when we surrender, there is such beauty and that is where freedom starts. I pray for this community and this whole generation to find the freedom that comes from knowing and surrendering fully to Christ!
Yes!!!
Amen
I agree so much. The message of desiring to follow God more than ourselves applies to everything.
It reminds me of how Jesus met several of His apostles. The fishermen who met Jesus and immediately left their livelihood and everything behind to follow Him. They had many doubts and hardships but they always stayed with Christ and continued to follow Him.
Yes!!!
True
I like how she wasn't pushy like some Christians are with this kind of stuff. She simply cited Scripture and talked about her past experiences with him. You could tell she had a lot of love for this guy because she was in the same boat as him earlier in her life.

Let this man live the way he feels is right with god. Jesus told us NOT to judge others, yet the very people he was there for (Christians) hurt and murdered him. Do not judge others and do what Jesus would do.

Something stirs within me when someone can quote from scripture so well by memory and in the correct context. It’s so refreshing when the beloved cite the Word to support their stance rather than contort the Word to fit their stance.
Why stop there ur scriptures also advocate for child rape and slavery what does your spirit do with that verse?
@@kmtgoddess7793 where are these verses that you talk about?
Numbers 31 for starters
@@kmtgoddess77931."slavery in biblical times was very different from the slavery that was practiced in the past few centuries in many parts of the world. The slavery in the Bible was not based exclusively on race. People were not enslaved because of their nationality or the color of their skin. In Bible times, slavery was based more on economics; it was a matter of social status. People sold themselves as slaves when they could not pay their debts or provide for their families. In New Testament times, sometimes doctors, lawyers, and even politicians were slaves of someone else. Some people actually chose to be slaves so as to have all their needs provided for by their masters.
" ppl chose THEMSELVES to be slaves for 7 years if they had debts and after paying their debts and they were free to walk away, MANY of them CHOSE to remain. This slavery is not the same as the one you re thinking of.
2."This passage needs to be read in context with the entire book of Numbers. The virgins and young girls were spared for a specific purpose-not for rape-but because they were innocent of the earlier crimes of the Midianites. In Numbers 25:1-2, we read that the Midianite women were culpable for seducing the Israelite men. This act was more than simply sleeping around. These men were seduced into Pagan worship, as a result (Num. 31:16-18). Remember, ancient Near Eastern worship was not an innocent or innocuous form of religious worship; it was a child-sacrificing abomination! For this reason, Dawkins (and other critics) apparently miss the point."
there are longer and more detailed explanations on google.This chapter must be read in context, as all Scripture must
@@OliviaXQ Christian's are all about blood sacrifices first of all to think that it would suddenly be a problem seems out. Secondly ur saying these virgins are not raped.

Thirdy in this time women were being hit at insanely low wages sum as young as 9 if you think there is not any chance that some of these girls were underage I dont know wat to tell u. This is an insane decree but when you match it up with gods wrath in the rest of the bible it all checks out. The jewish god is the leader of a fictional death cult.

So true! People don't realize that Satan is cunning and smart he's not going to call you to worship him he doesn't care what you choose as long as it's not God's path he wants you to "do as thou wilt"..
Woahhhh truth !!!
What a word!!!!! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Exactly then he hides in your heart.
Recently, the Lord showed me that I need to lock up my heart and hand the keys to him and he also puts his peace as a gate arround my heart. Then he showed me I have to live out of my belly as a believer because out of my belly flows rivers of living waters...
I declared it and that night when I slept, I had victory in my dreams and satan fled from me.
So as believers our bellies are full of the joy of the Lord and that's where our strength comes from!
The way she spoke about Jesus the passion in her heart...wow just wow!!
The lady (ex-trans) speaks so beautifully. You can see the holy spirit inside her.
Leaning to your own understanding will make us fall short of the Glory. Our bodies are not actually ours. It's our Father's. Obedience is hard but doable.

@@iKaleighCupcake so if god changes his mind on what is sinful how do you know what is considered a sin today? The Bible was written a while ago and according to you god just changes his mind on what people should and shouldn’t do every now and again.
@Xxxextinction or maybe it is because of all the mixed messages that people get from the Christian community. If Christians can't agree on things then how is anybody else supposed to have a better understanding of things?

@Steven 00 that's not true everyone gets tempted. Even Jesus was tempted to do sin and yet he successfully commited himself to the father's will.
Amen

@Steven 00
It’s not about it being natural or unnatural bud. The fact that she uses the word struggle presents to us the fact that there is still suffering in our walks with Christ. Christ himself suffered and was tempted. God could very well take all bad feelings and “unnatural” attractions from us. But when we as carnal humans still struggle with it, it shouldn’t be deemed as not completely delivered. God is able and what I took from this is that there is edification in suffering and that is the beautiful part about surrendering.
I love how Laura displays her relationship with God with practical examples and random conversations with Jesus. 🙏🏾🙏🏾😊

John 6:63
It is the Spirit who gives Life; the flesh profits nothing. The Words that I speak to you are Spirit, and They are life.
2 Timothy 3:15-17
and that from childhood you have known the Holy Scriptures, which are able to make you wise for salvation through faith which is in Christ Jesus. All Scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness, that the man of God may be complete, thoroughly equipped for every good work.
If people are Christians they must love people enough to tell them the truth no matter how hard the truth is. The word is not for our convenience but for our conviction and transformation. When people say that they have submitted to God they must not submit to not only what is pleasing to them but to the ENTIRE word of God.
We all struggle with things and in that struggle seek to preserve self and our own desires but as Christ followers the "I" and "my" that departs from His word, that exalts itself against His precepts is destructive and sinful. As hard as it is we must give up the things that keeps us from true worship, that prevents us from living a life for Him. It's not what we desire for ourselves but true submission is what He desires for us.
Those who claim to be loving Christ must remember the rich young ruler...who declared that he had kept all the Laws but who refused to give up his wealth and follow Christ. For him wealth liberated him, gave him the comfort that he needed but in the moment of his decision He revealed that he did not truly love God. He loved his wealth more and was in breach of the first commandment. He did not love the Lord with all his heart, soul and strength.
God reveals to us the things we exalt over Him and calls us to Love Him beyond self. We must fully submit to that...how can he be Lord over us if we do what pleases self? Self control is one of the fruits of the Spirit...it must be developed in us.
God loves ALL of us and we must love Him and love each other. Let us therefore prayer earnestly and encourage each other to obey His word. Both persons here were very gracious to and respected each other through a difficult dialogue and I truly applaud that. That in itself demonstrates love.

LGBTQ believers have such a cross to bare. I can’t imagine the spiritual battle that must go on internally for them. Jesus said take up your cross and follow me, deny yourself and repent. The Bible is Truth.
What a cross to bare.
Hum, I don't think that they have a greater fight than other people to win. They just have to accept. I was gay, God came in my life, I wanted to serve him and yet still continue to be in relationship with boys. But, the Holy Spirit convinced me so hard, that I decided to renounce my old life. At the begining, it was easy for me to walk with Christ but the more I wanted to get closer to God and sanctified myself the more "forces" and "lies" were trying to bring me back into my old life... BUT the Key, the KEY to stay and rest in God and to be victorious in all is to realize, to get the "rhema" that you are really dead at sin, dead at the world. And that now, you are ONE with God himself and that it's no longer you who live but Christ who lives in you.

God loves everyone. But just because he loves you doesn't mean what you're doing is right. End of story
He did say 1 John 2:4 he who say he knows me and keeps my comments is a liar. Also he Said John 14:21 He that hath my commandments, and keepeth them, he it is that loveth me: and he that loveth me shall be loved of my Father, and I will love him, and will manifest myself to him.
Yes exactly! But never forget he still loves you
This is absolutely right.
She's lying to herself. She's usually confident in her pseudo-masculinity but loses confidence when faced with someone that's sees right through her. She was definitely chaffed by the idea that was brought up about always wondering if someone can tell she's really a girl. That person would be riddled with anxiety on a daily basis whenever meeting new people or confronted by genuine masculinity. Christ concern is not for your feelings, especially if it interferes with your sanctification. He doesn't want to see you, He wants to see Himself.
(YAH)God does not love everyone. Romans 9:13 kjv As it is written, Jacob I have loved but Esau have I hated. He is the GOD of the Israelites. Amos 3:1-2 and Acts 5:29-30. Possessive nouns were used. Just read Romans 9:1-15 kjv. Other translations leave out or change scriptures even though the bible says not to. The bible is black history.

It would be interesting to have the perspective of a non Christian detransitioner.
There are a lot of detransitioners on YT. But many of them, not all, at least reference feeling moved by God to detransition.
There are more detransitioners young ones that arent claiming Christianity was the reason. They thought that was what’s wrong why they feel unhappiness in their life but there was reasons for not liking themselves because of unhealthy family experiences in life. That wasn’t the reason. It was more mental emotional pain . Reason to wait at least.
The guy explained that he wanted to express his more masculine side with western society say they look male and took pieces of flesh off his chest. He is a nice person. Cultural acceptance versus self acceptance versus following God addressed gender. I hate no one. Our lives are exploring who we are defining ourselves. What is the compass that guides us. Life is hard period being a human being . I have made decisions to follow what I believe I am as well as choosing to listen to God’s word. . Time age reflection will tell. God makes beautiful lives out of Ashes. That was a wonderful talk for sure !
There are so few detransitioners its hard to get a perspective, one thing in common with most people who detransition is the stigma of being transgender, being shunned by their family, causes them to detransition.
@@TheEnigmaticmuse 1% of humans are transgender, less than 3% of transgender people detransition.

@@raquelrufo118 Amen. We need to let God change our hearts too.

@fearmongeringsells this right here is the EXACT piece I, myself, struggle with (with my own trans kid). You wrote your comment a year ago, I’m sure no one will ever see this… But honestly this is where Protestant teaching and more strict Christian teachings really differ. My child is my responsibility to raise- I bear the true authority and responsibility of her upbringing in the eyes of God (not the grandparent). But I simultaneously want to love and accept her for whatever choices and mistakes she may make, not condemning and pushing her away, even though I am very much against trans ideology. Anyone who is a Christian parent of an LBGT individual probably has a little bit of an internal struggle around this. But meanwhile, any other person that I didn’t have such a moral responsibility to, I would feel it more right to tell them they are loved regardless, Jesus loves you, I love you, I empathize, etc., as I’m sure this grandmother’s intention was. I cannot fathom that Jesus or God wants us to shun someone. I just can’t. It’s so hard, honestly. I just pray and pray and pray, but it feels hopeless I will reach her.
No offense but Ashton’s grandma didn’t speak truth from scripture, God’s very own word. No one can be good, a “good person” does not exist, for ALL have sinned and fall short of the glory of God, God is seeking for sinners to come to REPENTANCE & humble obedience & for people to LOVE & worship Him as He ought to be worshipped.
And how does one achieve repentance without God?

The fact that Ashton’s grandma said that God only cares that you are a good person is troubling. WHO IS GOOD? Each person carries their own moral compass, which can just lead to contradictions between humans on what is considered good. God needed to send down the 10 commandments to show us the standard of what is good according to Him. BUT we still fall short, which calls for the need of Jesus. It’s not about how good you are, but how good Jesus is! So good that He died for your sins, took all the pain, guilt, shame, & humiliation that YOU DESERVED so that you may receive the gift of salvation & eternal life and be adopted into the KINGDOM OF GOD. TO DIE TO SELF IS GAIN. Humble yourself before the Lord, FOR HE IS ALL KNOWING & RIGHTEOUS. You may not understand why you struggle with things now but the Lord plans are better than your own. DECREASE SO HE MAY INCREASE. Give yourself to Him and He will provide you strength, peace, comfort, & understanding to his receive his GOOD, PERFECT, & PLEASING WILL. Jesus loves you. 🤍
I like your question: Who is good? Indeed who is? Is God good? Is humanity bad before the 10 commandments were written? Did humanity became good after?
Good and bad people have existed throughout history. I dont see it as evidence that a god exists.
If it were not for God, would humans stop caring for children? Would we stop socializing? Would we stop valuing our survival and well-being? Do we need God in order to realize that cooperation and compassion are beneficial for our species?
I do agree that being a good person is dependent on the person and their moral compass. Looking to God is how we find what is good. What I would ask you is how do you know this isn't God's plan? That it isn't his will for them to be transgender?
@@gabbiedavis676 @Gabbie Davis I would disagree with you that anyone needs to look at God to see what is good. There was a time people looked at God and He advocated for "good slavery." I would agree with the first statement of your reply, man can have independent ways towards morality or good.

@@gabbiedavis676 No problem! There is absolutely nothing to apologize for. I myself am also trying to learn.
According to the Bible, slavery was already a thing even before Israelites came to Egypt. God's own righteous man, Abraham, owned slaves.
Also God's morality included testing Abraham's righteousness/faith by commanding him to sacrifice his son Isaac. If you were a parent, would you ask your child to set their beloved pet puppy on fire to test their loyalty and trust in you?

I'm not a Christian actually I'm Muslim. But one thing I notice is that the ex trans uses evidence from the bible and the trans person uses feelings as evidence. Feelings are not facts.

Perhaps it will take time for that seed sowed to grow but as of this video, I don't think she is very sincere with herself unlike the ex trans. She was willing to sacrifice her desire to serve god.

@@unworthy1582 for "God loved the World" not only those who would chose Him, but for everyone to have that choice of rejecting salvation or accepting it, no such thing as calvinism in the bible.. For where there is freedom there is love. Jesus died for us while we were His enemies. Jesus said "father, forgive them" while they here insulting and crucifying Him.
@@andya4012 That was his mercy yes what a beautiful thing it is! But God is the same yesterday today and forever.
@@unworthy1582 he is immutable regarding His nature and attributes, but not when it comes to atonement. The jews had the law, but now, us, the gentiles, have been saved by grace through faith in Jesus who died for our sins. Now, you have to believe in Jesus, before, just believe in God and follow the mosaic law, like keeping the sabbath and circumcision.
“Glorifying God, that’s what we were created for” I loved that. Finally a person speaking biblical truth. She’s amazing. I admire her braveness and boldness for God.
Laura spoke the unadulterated WORD of God!
eviticus 19:19
“You shall keep my statutes. You shall not let your cattle breed with a different kind. You shall not sow your field with two kinds of seed, nor shall you wear a garment of cloth made of two kinds of material.”
I really hope you never run around wearing a cotton / polyester sweater.
F H That’s based off the Old Testament and operating under Old Testament laws. The New Testament is based on our Faith in Christ and His finished work on the cross.
@@feliciaann721 lets not try and twist and rest the scripture into whatever we want it to be. there is a specific context behind this scripture regarding Old Testament laws to become ritually pure, let’s seek God and his wisdom so we are able to rightfully divide the word of God
@@feliciaann721 consider ceremonial and moral law, he Bible states that in Christ’s we are under a new covenant. The Old Testament scriptures were to give instructions on the law of God to Israel until atonement for mankind arrived. When Christ came, the law was to bring conviction and repentance from sin. Under christ, the curse of us not being able to keep the law is removed bc we are made clean of our sins by Christ. By God still have a moral law, if we are followers of him, we obey his commands and abandon our sinful ways.
@@AdeVeronica Then i guess the women in pink using the laws of god creating men and women to be who they are isn't valid then?
I’m such an interrupter when I have something to say but I just love how patient each of them is in sharing their own opinions
I hope you can as well one day, stop interrupting
Me too!!
She is so well spoken and eloquent.
Dang sis was memorizing whole Bible passages 😭😭 I aspire to be like that
just absorb scripture daily and apply it to your life. eventually it’ll be wired into your subconscious and you’ll be able to 👍🏼
I find you everywhere
@Instagram Ts_jazzmine the Bible does not condone slavery it has constantly been debunked. It’s just a bunch of atheists who took a few scriptures out of context, didn’t know what the difference between the old and New Testament was, never thought to research and spewed a bunch of nonsense. And that’s coming from an ex atheist who actually did research
@Instagram Ts_jazzmine actually people with your mindset think that because they keep looking at Leviticus. The Bible talks about gays MULTIPLE times in the Bible. It doesn’t specifically mention homosexuality because the WORD didn’t exist. The MEANING did.

But, as an ex atheist, I know my old people. You will always think you know more about the Bible than the people that live by it. Even when you’re painfully and obviously wrong
@Instagram Ts_jazzmine slavery in the Bible exists but is not promoted. God never promoted it nor did he encourage it. People owned slaves after wars and had “slaves” which were paid workers...
Employees
People use love as a weapon. You can use a glass bottle as a weapon. It only shows the person failed to use it for its intended purpose. Not that the item is bad
Also, I’m assuming you’re above 18? Are you capable of an intellectual conversation at all? I mean, I know atheists are intolerant an hateful. I used to be one. But goodness woman
"anything in life is liberating for a season, but then eventually reality sets in," ooof thats a word
Yes. Just like the prodigal son in Luke 15. “Freedom” is fun for a season. Until God moves and reality sets in. Just like the prodigal son, you come to the end of yourself, to your senses, and begin to recognize the lies and deceit you believed as truth. Good thing our Father is so loving and merciful he welcomes us back with extended arms!

So proud of this woman speaking so bodly about who God created us to be

I am in awe🙌🏽
@Karen luvs Jesus but he also wants us to tell people the truth...
She has truly been transformed by the power of the word of God ❤
“The Word is only source of Truth” - said Laura. Not how I feel, but how God says. That what means to follow Christ, not to follow myself.
I love how they are looking at each other with so much compassion instead of judgment
This was just wow!! When she spoke about God it gave me chills! This woman truly loves God and i was so blessed to have seen this!!
Yessss🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼
Agreed!!
I don’t love god because I don’t believe in him I’m atheist and gay so I go off sister
She is so sharp. I love how loving she is. Truth told with kindness. Amazing. Good on her. (Your internal compass is not your standard. It is the word of God.)
So glad Free speech and free thought was honored here. Both sides of the argument presented fairly therefore the audience gets to make up their own minds and not be manipulated. Thank you!!!
Truly! It is refreshing to have open, vulnerable and human conversations like this in person when too often when most people only having discourse like this over a screen. ❤️
I agree! Neither side was disrespected and there was no slant on the discussion.
"If you love Me, you will keep My commandments."
-John 14: 15

@Jenny clark he says that a man who dresses as a woman and a woman who dresses as a man is an abomination. People can try to twist the words to suit them but the Bible is so clear but man just always tries to change it to meet their needs
@Jenny clark Deuteronomy 22:5 I completely understand what you mean but if we look at history women have almost always worn gowns and skirts up until “recently” did women start wearing pants. Just because the pants are made for women it doesn’t mean it’s still not bad
@Jenny clark they still had difference in clothing, hence the scripture being written in the first place, if there was no difference between the men and women's garments at the time there would be no need to write the scripture, but it was written because there was a difference between the two.
This woman is amazing, not only has she gon down that path so her has room to speak, but she truly understands the Bible and seems so kind and loving.
She absolutely does come off as a beautiful person. I still see a man though. And its not that she had taken testosterone. Her personality is of a man. I'm glad she is happy and am not trying to say its not real what she experienced, but I dont see a masculine woman, let alone a feminine one as she seems to think she gives off, I see a man. But more power to her for picking up her cross.
@@dapper_slapper4093 What is it about her personality that makes you see a man?
@@dapper_slapper4093 A “man personality” doesn’t exist
@@jedithekitten8891 yes it does. There are differences between men and women that are not just physical
@@dapper_slapper4093 Femininity and masculinity are social constructs - they were made up by the human mind and they vary across cultures.
Beautiful conversation I love that they didn’t argue but just had a discussion.
This shows why it's so very important to know God's Word and not lean on our own understanding.
But as you read God's word you automatically create your own understanding of it that is how reading and understanding what is written works... Written word without the reader's interpretation has no meaning, even if you dont INTENTIONALLY add meaning to something you still do so!.. so how can you claim that you follow God's unchanged word?!
@@productionXerror Proverbs 3:5-6 says "trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding. In all your ways submit to Him and He will make your paths straight." Scripture interprets scripture, not our personal ideas of what scripture means. This is why we are also to be renewed in our thinking. "Do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewal of your mind, that by testing you may discern what is the will of God, what is good and acceptable and perfect."
Romans 12:2
Cool👍you're basing your argument on something that I do not place value in just like all of the people in the comments don't place value in someone's "feelings" so none of these quotes have any awe inspiring effect on me sorry✌️also I hope that you are aware that the Bible was created by man :/
@@productionXerror, if you don't believe or see any value in it, then why debate it as if you're trying to find the truth within the subject? According to Scripture, the understanding comes from God and those who want to know God end up coming to the same understanding.
@@productionXerror yo me too I’m atheist 😱😱😱🤩🤩
Recently I encountered God, heard his voice, saw the face of Jesus, and I can tell you without a shadow of a doubt that he’s real and loves you very much. I hope you pursue him and form a relationship with him because it’s about relationship not religion.
O foreaL so what he Look Like
o foreal so wat he Look like
@@big4jey213 just like he’s described in the Bible. His eyes had fire in them and his hair was like wool
@@stacefaceee9976 Read Psalm 22
How could you see him and hear him?
“Truth cannot be based on feelings” Amen. Appreciate both of them being open and kind in this discussion.
