    Yours in Christ,

    yes you are right on that point and that point being about their clothes which they wear.
    Yet now there are clothes for unisex as in not to be biased on gendered clothes that can be worn and I assure you that when one wishes to change gender they may not want to change their clothing . Now I do understand that some may do but not all.

    It doesn’t say toasters burn hands either but common sense tells me it would be a stupid thing to do.

    Common sense tells me that Jesus really REALLY hates the gaywise (as per Lev 20:13).

    Your not going to tell me that being transgender is not worse from Jesus’ perspective on a scale of normal to sex change, are you?

    It's covered here. Search function is your friend.
    For once your reply had an interesting link. I will post it here:
    Psalm 82:1-2 God standeth in the congregation of the mighty; he judgeth among the gods. How long will ye judge unjustly, and accept the persons of the wicked? Selah.

    I've included verse 2 for context, just in case anyone was thinking of inserting some false doctrine they made up for themselves.

    This is odd, if we look back to the verses from yesterday, which I don't believe I highlighted the one in particular, we'll see something interesting.
    Psalm 77: 13 Thy way, O God, is in the sanctuary: who is so great a God as our God?

    ..and linking to the Psalm 77 post:






    Psalm 77:11-15 I will remember the works of the LORD: surely I will remember thy wonders of old. I will meditate also of all thy work, and talk of thy doings. Thy way, O God, is in the sanctuary: who is so great a God as our God? Thou art the God that doest wonders: thou hast declared thy strength among the people. Thou hast with thine arm redeemed thy people, the sons of Jacob and Joseph. Selah.


    The Bible is very clear about false gods. They were (and still are) cooked up by a criminal caste masquerading as seers or prophets or even more cynically manipulating people who, although not really seers or prophets, thought they were. They did this to get a privileged status and murdered anyone who objected. False religions use the same methods today. It's all they got, buster! would be a fair critique.

    There are exceptions where laws have been passed to get rid of such odious frauds but make no mistake: if they ever get a toe-hold again they'll revert to form within a century. Whatever soporific burlesque they enact in the meantime.

    “God,” they say, “Is so fantastic and will provide a permanent bordello we accept cash (only).. as they refer to a hideous ivory goblin or gilded idol of the moon or whatever image they've conditioned their followers to adore. It is presented as God but is no such thing in reality. Gods of that type are not great. This is made plain in Psalm 77.

    These deceptions deserve to be judged. The thing held up as God, by liars, is in fact a useless thing. A god, a human invention. The way they use it, the values they attribute to it elevate the word..as they use it..to a proper noun. With a capital letter. This is what God compares, the image they perceive, the value they attribute to it, can never compete with reality.

    In Psalm 82 however, God is not inviting comparisons with reality. God is judging. And the things He judges, the wicked things He judges, the falsehoods and lies and deceptions and idols He judges are in reality mere gods. Useless objects, useless ideas. The world view described in Psalm 77 is judged in Psalm 82 and as always God's Perfect Judgement is consistent. Otherwise it would not be perfect.

    A lot, because this dispensational will end with the rapture. It has nothing to do with my opinion, but with the truth.

    Let not your heart be troubled: ye believe in God, believe also in me. In my Father's house are many mansions: if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you. And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again, and receive you unto myself; that where I am, there ye may be also. (John 14:3)

    For if we believe that Jesus died and rose again, even so them also which sleep in Jesus will God bring with him. For this we say unto you by the word of the Lord, that we which are alive and remain unto the coming of the Lord shall not prevent them which are asleep. For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first: then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord. (1st Thessalonians 4:14-16)


    And at that time shall Michael stand up, the great prince which standeth for the children of thy people: and there shall be a time of trouble, such as never was since there was a nation even to that same time: and at that time thy people shall be delivered, every one that shall be found written in the book. And many of them that sleep in the dust of the earth shall awake, some to everlasting life, and some to shame and everlasting contempt. (Daniel 12:1-2)

    Well, the statement that dispensationalism was unbiblical and cult of Darby, Scofield or Ruckman. But the truth is, Ephesians 3:2 says the opposite:
    If ye have heard of the dispensation of the grace of God which is given me to you-way

    Just because Paul uses a vaguely similar word in a completely different context does not mean anyone endorses that.

    The True Christians™ put a lot of time (seriously, a lot of time; check the thread dates, lazy ***es slacked off for like eight years mid-stream) and effort (ok, not so much proof there) into assembling the Bible in a Year forum covering the entirety of the KJV through a True Christian™ lens. It's an invaluable resource. And the Ephesians 3 section of that forum has... nothing ...on dispensationalism.

    That being said, there is support for it elsewhere in the Bible, so it is accepted by most denominations (I don't recall seeing it being discussed here either way). Let's see if you can find it, and an appropriate thread the discuss the matter (because it's a really meaningless issue unless you already accept almost all of the rest of mainstream Christian theology, and has historically only been used to provide "heretics" to prosecute for political purposes).

    Adam and Eve clearly were in a different dispensation as us. They could do what they want except eat from one tree - which doesn't apply to us.
