DO NOT BE FOOLED

"For many deceivers have gone out into the world, those who do not acknowledge Jesus Christ" (2 Jn. 1:7). Jesus taught us, as his followers, to be as wise and as innocent as possible as we live in this world carrying forth the gospel (Mat. 10:16). Satan is the great deceiver, and many people live in this world as his instruments of wickedness.

Christians, indeed, all moral, right-thinking, Constitution-rooted Americans, recognize the top-down, ramrodding, leftist, progressive agenda aimed at fundamentally changing America, regardless of the form in which it comes at us. We will not be fooled by it, submit to it, or aid and abet it. Target leaders are doing nothing more than using slippery aversion tactics to appease the masses and regain the millions of customers and dollars they have lost due to the boycott over their evil, immoral policy of allowing men to go into and use women's bathrooms in their stores.

Target leaders should know that adding single-stall, locking bathrooms to their stores is a weak, miserable substitute for doing the right thing--reversing their ridiculous bathroom policy-- specifically, making their men's bathrooms for men and boys only and making their women's bathrooms for women and girls only, AND that means men and boys who were born males and women and girls who were born females. Until Target does the right thing, Christians will stay the course.

LET GOD BE TRUE, AND EVERY HUMAN BEING A LIAR (Rom. 3:4).

At the root of the sins represented by the "LGB" in LGBTQ is some human beings being deceived by the satanic assault against God's created order, which God called good. After God created the first man, Adam, and placed him in the Garden of Eden, He said, "It is not good for the man to be alone. I will make a helper suitable for him" (Gen. 2:18). God did not make another man for Adam because He judged that another man would not be "suitable for him." Therefore, "the Lord God caused the man to fall into a deep sleep; and while he was sleeping, He took one of the man's ribs and closed up the place with flesh. Then the Lord God made a woman from the rib he had taken out of the man and he brought her to the man. . . . For this reason a man will leave his father and mother and be united to his wife, and they will become one flesh" (Gen. 2:21-22, 24). Having made the husband and his wife according to His own will and purpose, God blessed Adam and Eve and said to them, "Be fruitful and increase in number; fill the earth" (Gen. 1:28). God made Adam a wife, Eve, and, by doing so, established the boundary of human sexual expression to be between husbands and wives within the state of marriage.

At the root of the sins represented by the "TQ" in LGBTQ is some human beings being deceived by the satanic assault against God's sovereign right to create human beings in his own image. During the first five days of creation, God made the heavens and the earth, all vegetation and seed bearing plants and trees each after its own kind, the sun and moon and stars and the birds and sea creatures each after its own kind (Gen. 1:1-23). On the sixth day of creation after He created the land creatures each after its own kind, "God created mankind in his own image, in the image of God he created them; male and female he created them. . . . When God created mankind, he made them in the likeness of God. He created them male and female and blessed them. And he named them 'Mankind' when they were created" (Gen. 1:27; 5:1-2).

In the same way God made the sun to be and stay the sun and never to be or become the moon; in the same way God made the grass to be and stay the grass and never to be or become an apple tree or a live oak; in the same way God created the eagle to be and stay an eagle and never to be or become a dolphin; in the same way God created the monkey to be and stay a monkey and never to be or become a human being; God also created man to be and stay man and never to be or become woman. Likewise, God created woman to be and stay woman and never to be or become man. God made human beings exactly the way he wanted them to be and, by doing so, established the boundary of human gender--boys being boys and girls being girls; men being men and women being women. Any attempt by human beings to deviate from God's created order is the very work of Satan through human beings to destroy what God Almighty created and called good. However, do not be dismayed. We have the promise of God's word to encourage us: "Do not be deceived: God cannot be mocked. A man reaps what he sows" (Gal. 6:7).
