Was told times are changing. They are
but the Bible said they are not. There is nothing new under the sun.
All the sin that we did last week we will do this week. God does
not change. If God said transsexual is wrong it is wrong every time.
Cross dressing is simple rebellion and slaping God in the Face
What the President of the US has done
has shown open hate to the words of God. It is a abomnation to
sleep with a partner of the same sex. It is serious and for a leader
to declare this might mean God has left the land to the sin of its
people. Paul said that for a man to wear long hair on a guy is wrong
and will not stand. Its time for people that love Jesus and say they
are christian to stand up and act like it. Some vsay the bible is
out of date. No the bible that was written by man was the words of
the unseen God. God is from everlasting to everlasting so his words
are forever and will never change. This Bible is the only word of
God as he is not speaking in the church, though a hidden way. By the
pope or any man. I read the bible and then follow it. Some things
are no longer but the laws on Sex and marriage have not changes. Now
some on the gay issue say Jesus never talked. YES HE DID
Question: "What does the
Bible say about cross-dressing / transvestism? Is transvestitism a
sin?"
Answer: Deuteronomy 22:5 deals with the issue cross-dressing / transvestism (men dressing in women’s clothing and vice versa). In this passage God commands that a woman is not to wear that which pertains to a man and a man is not to wear that which pertains to a woman, for all that do so are an “abomination.” The Hebrew word translated “abomination” means "a disgusting thing, abominable, in the ritual sense (of unclean food, idols, mixed marriages), in the ethical sense of wickedness." Therefore, this is not simply God addressing the fact that a woman might put on a man’s garment or vice versa. Also, this is not a command that a woman should not wear pants/slacks as some use this passage to teach. The meaning here is that this “cross-dressing” and transvestism is done in order to deceive, or to present oneself as something that he/she is not. In other words, this speaks to a woman changing her dress and appearance so as to appear to be a man and a man changing his dress and appearance so as to appear to be a woman. This is the definition of cross-dressing or a transvestism.
We can also reason that the dynamic behind this is the leaving of what is natural and taking on that which is in God’s Word called unnatural (Romans 1:24-27). Paul tells the Corinthian church that the way a woman wears her hair is a reflection of God’s order, and therefore a woman who cuts her hair to appear as a man or a man who wears his hair long to appear as a woman brings shame to them (1 Corinthians 11:3-15). The issue here is the motive and attitude of the heart that is evidenced in the choice to rebel against God’s standard for obedience.
These are principles we can use to reason an application. Whatever the prevailing custom, men and women should wear gender-appropriate clothing, dressing decently and in order (1 Corinthians 14:40). To apply the principles, the Bible calls cross-dressing or transvestitism a choice that is a demonstration of unbelief and rebellion against God and His order.

5 And
Jesus said to them, “Because of your hardness of heart he wrote you
this commandment. 6 But
from the beginning of creation, ‘God made them male and female.’
7 ‘Therefore
a man shall leave his father and mother and hold fast to his wife,
8 and
the two shall become one flesh.’ So they are no longer two but one
flesh. 9 What
therefore God has joined together, let not man separate.” 1
Note Jesus said a male is to leave his
mom and dad and hold to his wife and they become one. 2 males are
not able to become one flesh ever nor are two females. If the pope
said they can it is wrong. If the president of the united states
said woman can go to a mans rest room that is still wrong. I have
had friends tell me to just cut that out of the bible and I say I do
that then God is going to cut me out of the will and I want Jesus.
