Christian a transsexual |
I have heard many times over that one can't be both a Christian and a transsexual. They always go straight to the scriptures located in Deuteronomy 22:5 where it states: A woman must not wear men’s clothing, nor a man wear women’s clothing, for the Lord your God detests anyone who does this. But what does this have to do with a transsexual. They misrepresent the scriptures and bend it way out of context. That scripture is about temple worship and prostituting themselves to the temple gods which are false gods too by the way. Anyone can twist the scriptures to use against those they are uncomfortable being around. They are also quick to point out where it says in scripture no effeminate man shall enter the kingdom of God. Well how does that affect me then? I do not and never have truly identified as a man. They, the Christian fundamentalists are all about keeping society living a traditional life. But I am a Progressive Christian, a true Christian. I feel that Christ is all about having compassion with all that are oppressed. Like in Luke 4:18-19 which states: “The Spirit of the Lord is on me,
because he has anointed me
to proclaim good news to the poor.
He has sent me to proclaim freedom for the prisoners
and recovery of sight for the blind,
to set the oppressed free,
19 to proclaim the year of the Lord’s favor.”
Christ came to the world to save the world not condemn it like it states in John 12:47.
So I can be a transsexual and a Christian. They do not want you to know that you can reconcile those together.
