And Jesus answered and said unto them, For the hardness of your heart he wrote you this precept. But from the beginning of the creation GOD made them male and female. For this cause shall a man leave his father and mother, and cleave to his wife; And they twain shall be one flesh: so then they are no more twain, but one flesh. What therefore GOD hath joined together, let not man put asunder. (Mar 10:5-9)
Though the message is not popular or politically correct, it is biblical that there are only two genders, and we are genetically either male or female, and one each of each gender are to come together in marriage and stay together as GOD designed and created us to do. We are all made in His image and He loves us enough that He sent His only begotten Son to die in our place and for our sin. Though our rebellion against Him has led to sin and death, He has not forsaken His creation, nor does He take any pleasure in the death of the wicked. He is not willing that any should perish and leave this world for an eternity without Him and it grieves His heart that many will chose to live this life without repenting of their sins and trusting in Him and His finished and perfect work on the Cross of Calvary and receiving by faith the new life in Christ He has already purchased in His own body on that tree.
We are supposed to live holy lives in Christ that are different from the world, and when we do, the world will hate us for it. When we proclaim the Truth from the Holy Scriptures of Creation, GOD'S design for marriage, gender, or any other precept, those who are dead in their trespasses and sins and without GOD in their hearts, rail against us and persecute us, because they can't reach a GOD that deep down they know exists and are without excuse. When we shine as lights in the darkness and proclaim the Truth of GOD to this sinful and broken world, they resist and reject the Truth because their deeds are evil, just as ours were before we came to understand the One who was calling us to Himself and the reconciliation He offers to all who will repent and surrender to Him on His terms.
Those who are now in Christ and have His new life and are a new creature living the life He wants us to live in and through Him are His people, and servants of the Most High GOD. We are called to minister to those around us who are hurting and in need with the Word of righteousness, rightly divided and fitly spoken. We are commanded to love one another as members in particular, and disciple one another in His Word that we may be equipped to the ministry and the work of the saints. We have been commissioned into His service and are to take the Gospel of Jesus Christ to this lost and dying world in the power of the Holy Spirit and as we go, proclaim the Good News of forgiveness through reconciliation and reconciliation with the Father through faith in His Son, that those who believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Messiah of GOD, might have life in His Name.
For GOD is not willing that any should perish, but that all would come to repentance and the knowledge of the Truth. Jesus loves you and wants to establish a covenant relationship with you that is real and personal. Surrender to Him on His terms and He will give you a brand new life of discipleship and fellowship with Him that is abundant and everlasting. GOD calls you to trust Him and what He has already done for you to pay your sIn debt. He has provided the only way of reconciliation with GOD, forgiveness from GOD, and Salvation through Jesus Christ, the Son of GOD who is GOD the Son, to give you a new life in Christ. Turn away from yourself and your sIn and turn to Him alone for eternal Life, now and always.
In Christ,
