Category: Trans Movement

Apostle Paul wrote the following about the Old Testament:

Now these things happened as examples for us, that we should not crave evil things, as they also craved.

And do not be idolaters, as some of them were; as it is written, “THE PEOPLE SAT DOWN TO EAT AND DRINK, AND STOOD UP TO PLAY.”

Nor let us act immorally, as some of them did, and twenty-three thousand fell in one day.

Nor let us try the Lord, as some of them did, and were destroyed by the serpents.

Nor grumble, as some of them did, and were destroyed by the destroyer.

Now these things happened to them as an example, and they were written for our instruction, upon whom the ends of the ages have come.

Therefore let him who thinks he stands take heed lest he fall.

In I Corinthians 10: 6-12, Paul is telling the Corinthian believers, who are mainly Gentile believers, that they need to pay attention to the Old Testament. Not so they can learn how to be saved by the Jewish law (no one was ever saved by keeping the law) but so they could receive instruction on how to live a life pleasing to God avoiding the snares of satan’s world with their deadly, eternal consequences.

Often things that displease God are called an “abomination”. An abomination ‘when used with reference to God, this nuance of the word describes people, things, acts, relationships, and characteristics that are “detestable” to him because they are contrary to His nature ‘ (Vines). Something that is “detestable” is ‘arousing or meriting intense dislike’ (Webster).

Pastor W. C. Campbell-Jack, a Christian Apologist, retired Church of Scotland minister and now pastor of the Free Church of Scotland, shares the following Old Testament instructions concerning the “trans” movement.

“Another basic principle of Scriptural interpretation is that we should compare Scripture with Scripture; thus protecting us from going off on a wild goose chase of our own devising. When we look at the rest of the Bible, we find passages which directly prohibit making yourself look like the opposite sex. Crossing sexual boundaries is explicitly forbidden.

Deuteronomy 22:5 tells us that men shall not put on women’s clothing and that women should not wear men’s. The person who does this is an abomination to the Lord. We should be clear that this does not mean that women should not wear trousers or men kilts….What is forbidden is the attempt to appear as an actual member of the opposite sex.” (Source: Berean Call)
