Are We Born Gay?
At conception God sent your soul into a flesh body to be born. Souls are masculine and feminine, but not male and female. Some souls get a body they don't align with... Why?
The host of heaven.
The host is all the souls. If not here with us, they are there with God. Your soul wasn't made when you were born. He already created all the souls. Nehemiah didn't say God is making, he said he made it with "all" their host.
Nehemiah 9:6
Thou, even thou, art Lord alone; thou hast made heaven, the heaven of heavens, with all their host, the earth, and all things that are therein, the seas, and all that is therein, and thou preservest them all; and the host of heaven worshippeth thee.
When you read through the first part of Genesis you are taken through what's known as the days of creation. There were five days and still no mention of creating angels, or any other being... just nature and animals. But on the sixth day God said "Let us make man in our image, after our likeness". How could he be talking to us if we haven't been created yet?
Genesis 1:26
And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness:…
The implications are we were with him before the first verse. All souls were with God when the verses of Genesis set the stage for this flesh age. When it came time for us to become flesh he said let's make man look like we look.
In the eternity you have a spiritual body that looks like you do. You have weight, mass, hair, and you basically look like you did (or you will) in your early 30s. That was the time of Jesus' ministry (our example). Since your soul is eternal you won't be in a flesh body that requires reproduction in the eternity (heaven).
Matthew 22:30
For in the resurrection they neither marry, nor are given in marriage, but are as the angels of God in heaven.
In another example Christ was being asked which man a certain woman would be married to in heaven since she had survived several husbands. He responded:
Luke 20:34
And Jesus answering said unto them, The children of this world marry, and are given in marriage:
Luke 20:35
But they which shall be accounted worthy to obtain that world, and the resurrection from the dead, neither marry, nor are given in marriage:
I put it to you that he was teaching "male/female reproduction" and the making of our "family tree" is how we are able to allow all souls to experience life in the flesh, but the soul itself is neither male nor female. You are indeed as much masculine or feminine as you are today, because it's you. That single concept gives a lot of credibility to the percentage of people who feel they are in the wrong body. They very well may be, but it's not a mistake. God doesn't make mistakes, but he does test every soul that expects to be in the eternity.
All souls that are not here now are there with God, and in their angelic body. When they come here through conception they don't know if they're going to get a boy body or a girl body... because angels aren't flesh. They also don't know if their heritage has a genetic issue, a substance issue, or even if they will get aborted. Becoming flesh is trusting God will see you through. It's very true a lot of people are making lifestyle choices for many different reasons, but there are some people who truly believe their body doesn't match their soul. This has nothing to do with lifestyle. But lifestyle most likely is a very important part of their personal test.
Being born is how we get from there to here to be tested, and after we pass away we return there.
Ecclesiastes 12:7
Then shall the dust return to the earth as it was: and the spirit shall return unto God who gave it.
You can't "return" to a place you haven't been.
2 Corinthians 5:8
We are confident, I say, and willing rather to be absent from the body, and to be present with the Lord.
If you're not here then you are there.
We are individually accountable.
Being born is God's way of having your heavenly family come spread out over time, instead of all at the same time. Your path is inspired by family and friends, and when you're older you pass your inspiration on to your heritage and circle. The purpose is in that middle time where you are an adult who is fully responsible for your own positions. Somewhere along that line every souls faces the test God wanted to see handled. Job got tested. Christ's temptation was a test. We all have them, and God promised he wouldn't test you beyond what you can handle.
1 Corinthians 10:13
There hath no temptation taken you but such as is common to man: but God is faithful, who will not suffer you to be tempted above that ye are able; but will with the temptation also make a way to escape, that ye may be able to bear it.
The question is will your test be the thing in your life that turns you away from him, or will you overcome. There are people who are not comfortable in their body. There have always been people present throughout history that felt their soul and body didn't match. This is not about sexual preference, what I'm talking about refers to experiencing a deeper intimacy than physical attraction. The kind of connectivity that married couples experience. For some it's very real. On the other hand there are also those that range from experimentation all the way up to those seeking an insatiable drive for satisfaction. To put all those people into the same exact category is ignorant at best. The range is a very dynamic blend of those that are born with this disposition to those that take actions that lead to a result, and every variation/combination/mix between. So while there is an element of choice it is also very clear that not everyone chose. Everyone does however have their personal test.
Flesh life begins at conception.
The first chapter of Luke walks the timing of Elisabeth's pregnancy, and she was six months pregnant with John the Baptist when Gabriel went to visit Mary. The next day Mary visited Elisabeth and John leaped in the womb. That tells us that both John and Jesus were in their respective wombs. They were present since conception. That is when the soul enters the flesh. There is no period of waiting between conception and when "life" begins.
For all of us from conception on there's a million things that could impact the term. Hopefully there are no medical complications or unfortunate developments. These conditions are beyond the baby's control, and sadly complications often arise. We work with what we have the best we can, but the point of the birth that is critical to grasp is that it ensures we all come equally innocent. We have no knowledge or awareness of life, of love, or hate, and selfish greed... and every other thing we become as we live.
As newborns we were deeply dependent upon those that cared for us, that inspired us, that lead, taught, and passed on the family belief system. Each adult is a mix of their collective scenario and their soul's natural instinct. Isn't that exactly what God is looking for? Isn't the purpose of life to see how your soul would handle your scenario? Oversimplification… maybe, the net result… guaranteed. That initial state of innocence is the reason Christ taught you must be born of water.
John 3:5
Jesus answered, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born of water and of the Spirit, he cannot enter into the kingdom of God.
Most churchgoers will teach you this is about being baptized, and then run around telling everyone they're born again... and if you are not then you are doomed. Not so fast… when Christ was on the cross he made it clear that one of those criminals would be with Him in paradise and I highly doubt he was baptized. What John is bringing forth here is a description of what happens when a soul enters the womb. It is protected in a bag of water for the term. Doing so ensures that person participates in the "game of life" fairly (cell-up construction).
Not all chose birth.
There are those that came without entering the womb. In Genesis they came during the time of Noah.
Genesis 6:2
That the sons of God saw the daughters of men that they were fair; and they took them wives of all which they chose.
They mated and had babies that were giants. Earlier I said souls are not male and female, so how can they make babies? Easy... they have an angelic body that is for this age. Every angel that appeared has always been male. Our test isn't just while we are here in the flesh.
Genesis 6:4
There were giants in the earth in those days; and also after that, when the sons of God came in unto the daughters of men, and they bare children to them, the same became mighty men which were of old, men of renown.
Why would they do this? Because they were trying to break the heritage from Adam and Eve to Christ. This is why there was a flood. It was to wipe out the Geber (hybrid children). Just before Revelation in the book of Jude they are described. It will tell you of those that did not keep their first habitation.
Jude 1:6
And the angels which kept not their first estate, but left their own habitation, he hath reserved in everlasting chains under darkness unto the judgment of the great day.
Meaning they didn't stay in heaven, and came here directly as adults with their full knowledge (being born means no memory).
Then in Revelation there are numerous other examples including the very famous one at the 6th trump, 6th seal, and 6th vial (i.e. 666). We're not talking about spooks and ghosts. These are tangible entities in an adult body. They are not here now, but they were here at the beginning, and will be later in the final portion of this time.
Revelation 12:9
And the great dragon was cast out, that old serpent, called the Devil, and Satan, which deceiveth the whole world: he was cast out into the earth, and his angels were cast out with him.
When you think of angels think of those who visited Lot. They weren't floating around or flapping wings. An angel is a messenger, or sent one. They look like us when we're "on the other side". They were radiant, and clean, and they looked just like people. The "wings" was their transportation. Kind of like how I call my car "my ride". It's how they came from the other side, and how they got back. Angels don't have wings growing on their backs. That's a tradition of man that hides the truths God wants you to know.
In the Old Testament Ezekiel describes an entire formation of what we would call UFOs. They had the very same markings of the original tribe standards (flags). How about the story of Elisha and his armor bearer when he prayed to have the veil peeled back a bit so his armor bearer could see the army that was with them? What do you think those chariots of fire were? Nobody could see them but they were there. Didn't God talk to Job out of a whirlwind? Whirlwind is "highly polished bronze". Was Jonah in a flesh whale or a USO? What would any of these things appear to be if you saw it back then?
Today we are tracking things in our air space and outer space that boggle the mind, and people keep seeing UFOs... but we never see them coming or going? That's because they are not coming and going from some distance place. A dimensional shift would allow them to appear and disappear, and mathematically support the science implied through the Bible regarding the interactions between heaven and earth. Our nature makes us question what we can't prove, but Elisha's armor bearer didn't need any explanation of what he saw. History shows 180,000 men were killed, mostly from fright as they tried to get away. Surely you don't think two guys took on 180,000 by themselves. It's not the numbers that make a Bible story look unrealistic, it's the lack of context to understand what really happened.
There are plenty of examples between Genesis and Revelation that will take on new clarity with this understanding. The hints were always there, and if these concepts seem new to you then what you learn here will teach you how to unlock any door. Mark, Luke, Matthew, and Paul would put a lot of effort in addressing these issues, and John's penning of Revelation pulls it all together in seamless harmony. The documentation for these concepts, and the science that supports every point in this work is plentiful. I just wanted to put a few chunks out there to show you the variety of issues that we can address cohesively without our model breaking, but doing so is going to expose the traditions today's denominations teach.
This is stage two.
There are numerous descriptions of a previous time sprinkled throughout the Bible. It initially gets addressed within the first two verses of Genesis.
Genesis 1:1
In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth.
Genesis 1: 2
And the earth was without form, and void; and darkness was upon the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters.
The way the second verse reads in English gives the concept as though God created the earth "void and without form". Look at the fourth word of the second verse. It says "was". In the original language it is the second actual written word. This happens a lot in translations. Words often have to be added to move a concept into our grammar. In this case we went from two to four words. The Hebrew word "havah" is the original that got translated into the English "was", but the Hebrew and Chaldee Dictionary of the Strong's Concordance, #1934 makes it clear that this word means to: become, behold, came (to pass), etc.
The key to get from this word "havah" is that it does not represent an original condition. If something came to pass then there had to be a pre-existing condition. Havah represents the results of an action. Something did happen, which is why the word havah is used. The earth was created millions of years ago and something happened that made it become in the "without form and void" condition. Some might call it the day our planet was still one continent and took a shot from space setting the plates in motion, and ending life on the planet (dinosaurs).
If you consider the description of the six days of creation as taking place after that event you can easily follow along as it describes the time it took to settle and naturally filter the ecosystem getting it back up and running for this second earth age. It is clearly void and without form in verse two, but in Isaiah God made it clear that the world was not created "void and without form" (vain):
Isaiah 45: 18
For thus saith the LORD that created the heavens; God himself that formed the earth and made it; he hath established it, he created it not in vain, he formed it to be inhabited: I am the LORD; and there is none else.
The word vain is "tohu va bohu", and is the same word used in Genesis 1:2 to say void and without form.
We are us.
If the thought of a time before this seems unrealistic, consider that for our souls to be eternal it has to go both ways, right? Eternal isn't just going forward in time. Didn't God exist before Jesus was born? Of course. All souls existed before coming here, and the ones that are back where they came from still exist today. That is why it says in Genesis that humanity would be made in "our" image. Who do you think God was talking to?
Genesis 1:26
And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness:…
Here's where most churches turn left instead of right. They read it as if God was talking to himself, the Trinity, or some even believe the angels (even though their creation hasn't been mentioned yet).
Us isn't the Trinity. The Trinity is comprised within God himself. When God made man flesh he said let's make them in the image of the Erohim, which means God and his children. Aren't we his children? The same ones you expect to see from your family tree later in heaven? Will your grandpa still be a grandpa, as in "older than you" in heaven? No. There is no sense of time from an aging perspective as we see in the typical 60+ year life of a flesh person. Existence and reality continue down the timeline, but your soul is in a constant state that doesn't age.
Genesis 1:27
So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them.
That implies God created man in God's image, and it appears verified when it says in the image of God... BUT, if we were all with him at that time the context totally changes. It explains why the creation of the angels hasn't been mentioned yet, and why he used words like "us" or "our image". It also dramatically changes the context of verse 27. There is no flesh yet, so there is no male or female yet. When God said he created man in his own image he was saying each person in their own image. His has no gender. Each person in their own image. That's why we don't all look the same. In the image of God means we are still a temple. From there we became male and female.
Your soul is alive today in your flesh body and that flesh ages according to the rules of nature. Your DNA is the evidence you played the game fairly by being born. When you take the soul out of the body the flesh returns to the dust from which it came, and it is also written that the soul "returns" to the Father which gave it. That also documents that it existed and came here. You can't return to a place you haven't been. There is nothing weird about the concept of your soul existing before whatever year you were born. It only comes here once, but it was alive with the Father in heaven before being sent here. That for example is how we can say the Word is Christ even though the Word existed before Christ was physically born. To say He didn't exist before entering the womb is a dead end. How else could he personally be tied to anything written in the Old Testament? How could it have been His plan? History records His visit and window of time. He was alive and "re"turned to where we all go... Just as your heritage did, just as we do, and just as your children will.
We were all with God when earth was prepared for this segment. A segment where man is made flesh for participation. It seems reasonable to conclude that if we are going to live forever in heaven, and if we are made to look now like we do in heaven, then isn't it possible that we were there with God in our eternal state where it was put forth man would be crafted after who we already were?
This was understood before.
We were in heaven in an eternal state, then "something happened", and now we are all going though a short lifespan to face whatever it is God needs to see in order to make a judgment. Later those that make it will be part of the eternity going forward, and those that don't will be blotted from memory (you won't miss them because you won't remember them). That brings up a lot of questions like what happened? Why do we even need to be tested? The critical concept to grasp here is that there was an age before this one, and Peter made sure that we wouldn't be caught unawarein the beginning of chapter three in II Peter.
2 Peter 3: 1
This second epistle, beloved, I now write unto you; in both which I stir up your pure minds by way of remembrance:
He said I'm writing this because you knew this before.
2 Peter 3: 2
That ye may be mindful of the words which were spoken before by the holy prophets, and of the commandment of us the apostles of the Lord and Savior:
He's giving credentials behind what he's about to go over, so make no mistake about it this is not his perspective. It is what was taught and understood by those at the highest posts.
2 Peter 3: 3
Knowing this first, that there shall come in the last days scoffers, walking after their own lusts,
It is written that people are going to doubt, and fall away. There will be those who simply refuse to believe any reality of God could be true. Scoffers and those after their own lusts happened before and it will happen again. Everyone gets tested based on personal decisions and actions, and we all will be held 100 percent self accountable without excuse. That's how this test works. Each person's scenario will bring them to the road that is appropriate for their test, and it is based on when "something happened" back when we were here the first time. They got distracted from the truth then, and and will no doubt do it again here in the flesh. Every soul both good and bad has to play in order to qualify for being judged. Let them play their hearts out. It's their game. Focus on yours.
2 Peter 3: 4
And saying, Where is the promise of his coming? for since the fathers fell asleep, all things continue as they were from the beginning of the creation.
Doubters of today ask how long it's been since there's been an entry into the so-called scriptures? They are thousands of years old, based on even older stories, and humanity has steadily progressed ever since then, and will continue to do so. But if the scoffers knew the basic concepts we are going over they would have relative understanding there are souls still in heaven now that have yet to come live on earth. It would be so obvious why He can't come back yet, because every soul has to have the opportunity to be born. That might even give some insight as to why populations are not reproducing at replenishable rates.
There are three earth ages.
Salvation is available to everyone that comes born of water, and everyone can't be born at the same time, so we wait as the sands poor through the hour glass until all the souls that are going to play fairly have entered through conception. Then we will be entering the time when Christ can come back in accordance to what is written. Time has enabled these scriptures to ring true, but traditions of man become a stumbling block for people to reconcile context? Peter made it clear that this was purely by their own choice:
2 Peter 3: 5
For this they willingly are ignorant of, that by the word of God the heavens were of old, and the earth standing out of the water and in the water:
There was a time when the earth was a thriving planet. We have the evidence of dinosaurs, and plenty of life millions of years ago. That was also a time when we were all here together. Don't confuse being here then as yourself with being here several times throughout history in different incarnations. That won't reconcile. You are one individual soul that was here then, is here now, and will be in heaven later. Surely when you see your family members in the eternity they will still be themselves, and not some "other" person in time... or a cow? That would create more circular references than any state of common sense would allow. The first earth age was a time when all souls were here and we saw the earth's nature magnified. We were in our eternal bodies with mass but we were not flesh (that's why it grieved God he made man flesh). Our spiritual body was not on the dinosaur menu so to speak. We were able to exist and observe very much like we do today, and we faced similar problems.
2 Peter 3: 6
Whereby the world that then was, being overflowed with water, perished:
The first earth age was destroyed by water when a meteor crashed into earth sending its axis 15 degrees off true north. That wobble is what receded waters to the poles where they froze. This is not Noah's flood. Noah's flood was recorded by Chinese history, which goes back farther than Noah by quite a bit. In Genesis it says the earth became void and without form. That is much different than a regional flood with other heavily populated areas still existing around the earth.
If you check the scriptures closely there are emphatic details that indicate two different floods. If you consider the purpose of Noah's flood it's easier to understand how it could have been regional, and how it was an example of what happened and why?
2 Peter 3: 7
But the heavens and the earth, which are now, by the same word are kept in store, reserved unto fire against the day of judgment and perdition of ungodly men.
This earth age won't succumb to another flood like before. Sorry to disappoint all those global warming alarmists, but it is written exactly how this era ends and the next one begins. It also said "by the same word", which is how I said the fallen angels knew what the plan was. What we are experiencing is happening with a known purpose. There will be a tangible result and whether you are aware of it or not if you are alive in the flesh that means it includes you. When we study the Bible we become familiar with the individual stories of those in the past, but when taught in context we gain knowledge of the plan as well. If you understand this then rest assured we are on the ride, and we will go our appointed course. How you deal with the facts as they unfold will be the measurement of how you played the game. In the end what we are going through is necessary for us to learn how to coexist in a peaceful eternity.
The scoffers of today are only looking at this second age without consideration of the previous or next age, and since the churches are blind to this context themselves they look even more ridiculous, and that makes a scoffer's foundation appear reliable. Throughout life every individual gives a deep preview of their soul, and later they can review that experience one on one with God. That is what judgment day is all about. Rewards for some, double rewards for others. That individual relationship exists regardless of anything that person believed or did while they were here. Our short lifespan is used to sprinkle us throughout the timeline versus when we are in heaven with all souls together in their full capacity. Short time here, limited capacity… eternity there, full capacity. The net result is that people write their own sentence of judgment daily. It's self-imposed.
Satan is a tangible soul like yours.
That first age lasted so long that everyone believed we were in the eternity. In that complacency many allowed the influence of others to supercede and many false doctrines and practices arose. Among the lead dissenters was a cherubim (a body guard to the throne). He was assigned to protect the "mercy seat" where God heard the prayers of his children. It is written in Ezekiel how God created this cherubim in perfection with all the gifts and beauty one could desire, but he still wanted to sit in that seat and was not satisfied protecting it. He leveraged his knowledge of the scriptures over time to maneuver into a position where others would support him taking over the mercy seat. He convinced a third of the souls to follow him, and he challenged God for the throne. The name of this soul is Satan. The scoffers back then never even saw it coming, and at the 6th Trump here they will miss it again.
If Satan were obviously evil from the very beginning do you think he would ever get close enough to challenge God for a Holy position? The threat Satan brought is the scariest of all in that it was from within our own ranks. The challenge for the throne came from a very trusted and respected soul at the time. Satan wasn't bad from the start any more than new marriages intend to break hearts. He became evil from within his own mind. He leveraged the gifts and position he had to benefit himself at the expense of others. But these were his choices. No one made him do anything anymore than they can make you. Our Father is not the author of evil, yet Satan was created by the same Father that created you and me.
We were all created in hope that we would see the eternity. We were given the gift of choice and unfortunately some souls choose to pursue evil. When Satan was created he was given the best of the best, and then he believed it. We're not just talking about a 15 minute of fame ego here. This was a time when it appeared we would keep going forever. How many years do you think we were here before Satan's attempted overthrow? He was a superstar who worked directly for God. Back in that first earth age he walked with God and was promoted all the way up to his position of Cherub.
The book of Ezekiel documents that Satan had priestly duties reporting directly to God.
Ezekiel 28: 12
Son of man, take up a lamentation upon the king of Tyrus, and say unto him, Thus saith the Lord God; Thou sealest up the sum, full of wisdom, and perfect in beauty.
Tyre means rock. The king with a small k tells us it's a false king and combined with Tyre it is symbolic for the false king or false rock. Who is our Rock? Christ. What position does Satan seek? Christ's. He more that wanted it, he fully believed it because after all he was created the model of perfection. Imagine today's Hollywood vanity combined with the Pope's religious authority (to those that follow).
Ezekiel 28: 13
Thou hast been in Eden the garden of God; every precious stone was thy covering, the sardius, topaz, and the diamond, the beryl, the onyx, and the jasper, the sapphire, the emerald, and the carbuncle, and gold: the workmanship of thy tabrets and of thy pipes was prepared in thee in the day that thou wast created.
This is talking about the first earth age because it addresses when Satan was created. All souls were all created in the first earth age. We also know it's the first earth age because at this time Satan was wearing a priests breastplate. That was revealed in the stones that adorned him. The Ruby is the tribe of Zebulon. Topaz is the tribe of Issachar. Emerald is the tribe of Reuben. Onyx is the tribe of Asher. Jasper is the tribe of Naphtali. Sapphire is the tribe of Simeon. Beryl is the tribe of Dan, etc. Satan had risen to a position within the church were he had access to the garden of Eden, which is basically God's garden. Since the geographical location of Eden is the same now as is was during the first earth age and because geographies don't change it should be no big stretch to see why the middle-east drama is just as it is today as they instinctually fight over what was then.
Ezekiel 28: 14
Thou art the anointed cherub that covereth; and I have set thee so: thou wast upon the holy mountain of God; thou hast walked up and down in the midst of the stones of fire.
He was so trustable that he became a guardian to the throne and he walked with God in the most private and Holy of settings. This clearly describes a first earth age condition in that in that God's holy mount and fiery stones are present.
Ezekiel 28: 15
Thou wast perfect in thy ways from the day that thou wast created, till iniquity was found in thee.
He was perfect when he was created. He was not created evil. It came from within him just as the opposite (love) must emanate from within. It started small, but just like cancer with time comes consummation.
Ezekiel 28: 16
By the multitude of thy merchandise they have filled the midst of thee with violence, and thou hast sinned: therefore I will cast thee as profane out of the mountain of God: and I will destroy thee, O covering cherub, from the midst of the stones of fire.
His corruption overtook him and he was more or less fired. But do you think this stopped Satan? No! He rallied those who followed him. There are stories throughout the Bible that touch on what he did, from the overthrow all the way up to the drama in this present day.
The next verse brings us to the current time because it describes the time when Satan is cast here to claim his position:
Ezekiel 28: 17
Thine heart was lifted up because of thy beauty, thou hast corrupted thy wisdom by reason of thy brightness: I will cast thee to the ground, I will lay thee before kings, that they may behold thee.
When did he throw him to the earth? Not in the garden. Not with Job. Not even when Christ was tempted… It is in Revelation that he is booted to the earth at the 6th seal, 6th trump, and 6th vial. That hasn't happened yet. It is what we will experience shortly. The Antichrist is not a man raised up here in the flesh. He's a soul that will be sent here to present himselr as Christ (anti means instead of), and we will see who follows him this time.
The price for the path Satan took is revealed in the next verses with the carrying out of God's sentence upon him:
Ezekiel 28: 18
Thou hast defiled thy sanctuaries by the multitude of thine iniquities, by the iniquity of thy traffick; therefore will I bring forth a fire from the midst of thee, it shall devour thee, and I will bring thee to ashes upon the earth in the sight of all them that behold thee.
Ezekiel 28: 19
All they that know thee among the people shall be astonished at thee: thou shalt be a terror, and never shalt thou be any more.
The third and final earth age where we all reside will be free of the cancer Satan cultivated. His downfall was to covet that which he was charged with protecting. In this case it meant he went from protecting the throne to challenging God for His position so that he could be worshiped. It sounds petty but his efforts yielded the deception of 1/3 of our population. He convinced them that his doctrine was the correct doctrine. This is backed up in Revelation:
Revelation 12: 4
And his tail drew the third part of the stars of heaven, and did cast them to the earth: and the dragon stood before the woman which was ready to be delivered, for to devour her child as soon as it was born.
Who's tail pulled 1/3? The dragon is Satan. When we come to earth as a baby the war over our soul doesn't start, it continues. Humanity's war between good and evil is not fought in opposing clarity with an obvious evil team and an obvious good team with everyone wearing a clearly marked jersey with their name and number on it. We all appear to be on the same team. At least those closest to the heat of the battle are vying to be on the same team (or their perspective of it). At this level we are definitely talking about a threat from someone on the inside. Someone that looks like us. Someone that talks like us. Someone that claims the same heritage. Make no mistake that Satan claims the same pillars. He just made slight adjustments that would lead souls to follow him. Then he pursued it to the point where war would break and 1/3 of the living souls would rise against the very Father that created them.
What's your test?
How does this relate to being gay? Regardless of the action taken from childhood through adult each soul has an identity and awareness of self, and unfortunately sometimes that isn't what we are born with. Femininity and masculinity span both sides of the sexes, and behavioral expectations based on sex have guided people to the conclusions and actions they take. That is their life thread. They will review it with God when their time comes. He knows who overcomes what, and who sought what, and who loves what, and who hates what. He lets us play so upon reflection we would know.
When you return to heaven your soul is neither male nor female. Our human sexuality is the method of operation that allows us to bring our heritage through this age in the flesh verses the spiritual body that always exists and doesn't deal with birth or death. Coming in the flesh during this second earth age is to put on mortality and play according the rules. We are made in our own image. That is a masculine and feminine measurement, not a boy girl association. When our souls come here we take a 50/50ish chance that we would be a boy or a girl. Never forget the goal and promise of this short time is to reveal some of the deepest things about every person. It also gives incredible depth to the various tests people are facing in their reality.
For some their personal appearance and place in life is just as they would want it to be (or so they think). For some there are things to confront. Others simply have something go wrong during the process. For example, a spiritual body is not handicapped, or subject to mentally handicapped conditions that would limit their cognizance. That's a result of our interaction with each other, the planet, life, and a million other variables that contribute to the diseases and unfortunate conditions that exist. It is as much a part of our reality as the fact that some souls get put into a body that does not align with their preferences.
The pursuit of sexual activity falls under choice. God didn't say people wouldn't have affection for each other, but he did lay the guidelines for how he expects us to behave while we're here. Same thing with eating pork or shellfish, it's not about God not liking the taste… it's because they are unclean and not good for you. Pigs don't sweat and shellfish are the vacuum cleaners of the ocean. They retain the toxins they eat. There are reasons behind the rules, and sometimes how the rules apply to us is enough to make a person turn their back. Maybe that is their test?
A civil union is reflective of a society implementing what it feels is acceptable and I won't try to stop those from pursuing what is written they would pursue. It's why we're here. As people live their lives and tell their stories without spiritual accountability its much more revealing than someone trying to act like they are something they are not, so I say let people pursue their happiness, and let's see what America becomes. Don't get me wrong… I'm not throwing in the towel. I'm throwing in a life preserver for my teammates. Nobody is born saved, but everyone saved came out of some personal challenge. The majority will do just as written… so will I, which is bringing our context back to awareness. I believe people are making decisions based on the hope that nobody knows what is real in relation to God, or our purpose for living. I challenge that right here. It is my goal to try and simplify the complexity to a point where people can snap out of their spiritual funk and gain a little maturity. They too are written about. There are a people out there that will be ready to lead when it's time, and the number one thing they will possess is the truth as to what is going on. Until then this is how we prepare and train.
It is easy for me to conclude that being born is God's way of ensuring we are each on a personal path based upon what we need to be tested on. In and of itself that could be pretty straightforward, but to be scaleable and hold true for the billions of souls that experience life, and to have their individual tests overlap and intermix with other people experiencing their own scenario under a just model is only achievable by God. I mean this as a math statement not a "you have to believe" statement. How many instruments play in the best orchestra? Those people want to be there AND they consciously practice being on the same page. Now consider the raw numbers in humanity and how many thousands of varieties of paths to walk. Having that level of diversity somehow make mathematical consistency would be the ultimate formula, yet as we scale back to its ultimate simplicity it holds true for the explanations given here. Regardless of your sexual preference or any other personal matter it's simply between you and God. He is the judge. Everyone here is taking their test right now. My test is for me, and yours is for you. Hopefully you will meet some people along the way that help you get through.
If you truly struggle with your identity, or have preferences where biblical and social opinions differ, you have to look past the obvious and seek with wisdom in order to overcome what is before you. You have to have context in order to grasp your scenario.
