Biden’s pro-trans war on children and Scripture:
There are at least three major components to the Christian gospel – all MUST be affirmed, and if you leave any of them out, you do not have the biblical story but a humanistic heresy. Just what are these three core and fundamental components of the gospel? Here they are in a nutshell:
One. Man was created by God in his likeness and image.
Two. Sin and the Fall have separated us all from God and greatly tarnished (but not erased) that image.
Three. Only through faith and repentance based on the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ can anyone get right with God, see the image properly restored, and inherit eternal life.
It seems the American President has now become a theologian – but a very bad one. Indeed, he has made it clear that he is a diabolical one, because he wants to affirm only those components that he is happy with. In this case, he has run with Number One, while fully denying the other two. So he is doing the devil’s work, and leading all his followers to a lost eternity.
He is also causing plenty of damage along the way – especially to our children. So what has sleepy Joe done this time? Being the good lefty and secular humanist that he is, he has come out fully defending the homosexual and trans agendas. And to add blasphemy to all this, he is now quoting the Bible – sort of. Selectively quoting Scripture will always get you into trouble. It will always mark you out as a deceiver and a liar.
Consider how one American newspaper has covered the story:
President Biden released a video message to mark International Transgender Day of Visibility on Thursday, saying that transgender people are “made in the image of God” and that their parents should affirm their gender identity. Biden, who as a senator backed an array of anti-LGBT legislation, slammed what he called “hateful bills” in several states that restrict transgender participation in girls’ sports and limit discussion of sexuality and gender identity.
“To everyone celebrating Transgender Day of Visibility, I want you to know that your president sees you — Jill, Kamala, Doug, our entire administration sees you — for who you are: made an image of God and deserving of dignity, respect and support,” Biden said in a video message name-checking the first lady, vice president and second gentleman.
“We know it’s hard when there are those out there who don’t see you, don’t respect you,” the president added. “For example, the onslaught of anti-transgender state laws attacking you and your families is simply wrong.” Those laws include Florida legislation that prohibits classroom instruction about sexuality and gender identity in kindergarten through third grade and laws in states including Arizona and Oklahoma that restrict transgender girls and women from competing in female sports.
“This administration is standing up for you against all these hateful bills,” Biden said. “And we’re committed to advancing transgender equality in the classroom, on the playing field, at work, in our military, and our housing and health care systems — everywhere, simply everywhere.” https://nypost.com/2022/03/31/biden-says-trans-people-made-in-image-of-god-during-video/
As I say, take some biblical truth but omit other key biblical truths, and you have full tilt heresy, not biblical orthodoxy. So let’s quickly sort out the mess Joe has come up with. Is every single person on the planet created in God’s image? Yes. And for that reason, of course we seek to treat everyone with dignity and respect.
But by leaving out the fundamentally vital Judeo-Christian truth of the Fall, and how sin has marred God’s good creation, we lose everything about the biblical story. It is exactly because we are all sinners, born with an orientation away from God, that people end up with every disordered orientation and proclivity under the sun – be it anger, over-eating, lust, greed, or confusion about one’s sexuality.
Being born with a sinful orientation is never an excuse to embrace it, celebrate it, and live it out. If you seem to have a life-long tendency to anger, that does not justify going on to become an axe-murderer. Instead you must deal with your sinful desires and urges, and not give in to them.
Jesus Christ is in the change business. He loves us too much to leave us in our sin and degradation. He wants to make us all new creatures in Christ – if we will let him. Allowing us to wallow in our sin and selfishness is hardly a loving thing to do.
Suffice it to say, anyone who knows what the Bible really says will know that Joe is doing his master’s bidding. And his master here is Satan, not God. He wants to further destroy God’s institutions of marriage and family, and he wants to destroy our most vulnerable members of society – our children
No wonder Jesus warned so very strongly about the fate of those who would mistreat our children (Matthew 18:6). Joe is simply preparing a very large millstone to go around his neck. And no wonder one of the final warnings in the Bible speaks about adding or taking away from the words found in Scripture (Revelation 22:18-19). Joe the one-third theologian has blood on his hands.
Afterword
Let me conclude with some important words from Denise Shick of Help 4 Families in the US:
Joe Biden said it all in his announcement of a Day of Visibility to the transgender folks. “We see you.” He also stated, “You are so brave. You belong and we have your back.” I’d like to see our government create a Day of Visibility for each family member across the world that had their heart shredded, dreams lost, child taken away, wedding vows broken, children left fatherless (or motherless), siblings, uncles, aunts, grandchildren and life altered from the government, colleges, public schools (NEA), workplace and from their stupidity of the transgender ideology and say, “We see you. You are so brave. We have your back.”
I confess to wondering how Biden would feel or his true thoughts if Jill Biden decided she were a man. It’s so easy to encourage another into destruction, but when it hits home, you get a real taste of what it’s like. Biden and all the others continue to encourage stealing the life God intended for someone as male or female. Feed children hormones (without parental consent) and create devastation for a numberless amount of family members.
To all the family members I do and do not know, You belong to God if you’ve asked him in your heart and accepted him as your Lord and Savior. Belonging to God is more satisfying and fulfilling than anything the government can offer. God WILL provide comfort through your relationship with him, and others. He will give you the strength you need. He is your Healer.
Remember, you are not alone – words I’ve spoken thousands of times through the last 19 years at Help 4 Families. Lastly, take care of yourself, sit with God and invite Him into your pain. Continue to fight on your knees. Giving up is not an option in this war!
