Question:<\/p>\n

What do you think about sex change and\u00a0genetic engineering that apply to human cloning?<\/i><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

\"v\"I can not have a different position than that of God, presented in the Scriptures. Both subjects that you have\u00a0requested are\u00a0rather broad, so in this article I will limit only to that of sex change.<\/p>\n

God created us in His image<\/h2>\n

Those who perform a\u00a0sex change surgery, disclaim through this very fact\u00a0God\u2019s plan\u00a0regarding\u00a0them:<\/p>\n

God created man in His own image, in the image of God He created him; male and female He created them.<\/span> (Genesis 1:27)(NASB)<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

King David said\u00a0through the Holy Spirit:<\/p>\n

For You formed my inward parts;\u00a0You wove me in my mother\u2019s womb.\u00a0I will give thanks to You, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made; wonderful are Your works,\u00a0and my soul knows it very well.<\/strong>\u00a0My frame was not hidden from You,\u00a0when I was made in secret,\u00a0and skillfully wrought in the depths of the earth;\u00a0Your eyes have seen my unformed substance;\u00a0and in Your book were all written\u00a0the days that were ordained for me,\u00a0when as yet there was not one of them. (Psalm 139:13-16)(NASB)<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

In light of these verses, sex change\u00a0surgeries is an attack on the sovereignty of God.<\/p>\n

Sex change comes from\u00a0perverse motivations<\/h2>\n

In my opinion, men and women who choose to\u00a0perform these sex change surgeries, do it after they were exposed to many perversions and their minds gets very seriously affected, as Apostle Paul says:<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Therefore God gave them over in the lusts of their hearts to impurity, so that their bodies would be dishonored among them.\u00a0For they exchanged the truth of God for a lie, and worshiped and served the creature rather than the Creator, who is blessed forever. Amen.\u00a0For this reason God gave them over to degrading passions; for their women exchanged the natural function for that which is unnatural,\u00a0and in the same way also the men abandoned the natural function of the woman and burned in their desire toward one another, men with men committing indecent acts and receiving in their own persons the due penalty of their error.\u00a0(Romans 1:24-27)(NASB)<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

When this epistle was written, there were no technologies to\u00a0allow sex change, but if\u00a0they had existed, be sure that those affected by perversity, would have\u00a0performed them and\u00a0Apostle Paul would refer to them in this verse.<\/p>\n

The Bible prohibits transvestism<\/h2>\n

Transvestite refers to a person who cross-dresses,\u00a0homosexuals who are wearing\u00a0women clothing, or lesbians who are wearing\u00a0men clothing.God calls it abomination:<\/p>\n

A woman shall not wear man\u2019s clothing, nor shall a man put on a woman\u2019s clothing; for whoever does these things is an abomination to the LORD your God. <\/span>(Deuteronomy 22:5)(NASB)<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

If wearing clothing designed for the opposite sex is an abomination, how much more sex change is abomination?<\/p>\n

Do you k<\/span>now people who have changed their sex or intend to\u00a0perform such a surgery? What is their motivation? But what is the motivation of transvestites, if you\u00a0know\u00a0personally someone? Or maybe they themselves come here to write\u00a0comments what their motivation is.<\/p>\n
