Short Take #4: Advice to Parents

Here is another short take from the Christian worldview. With David we find a question for you, MD is for the person listening today. During this conversation, someone who's struggling with not feeling again goes back to feelings that they are, they should be the sex that God gave them determine for them sovereignly and divinely determine for them at birth are struggling with transgender is him or there's parents today listening to have a child who are who is struggling with this and often happens early on in for some of the causal reasons that you articulated earlier. What is the message from God's holy word for someone struggling with it.

Or maybe the parents of a child who is struggling with it to accept two God made you to be. That is not always an easy thing for anyone to hear the rise of human pride and self-realization and the desire to be able to to speak our own words and to live our own lives and not have to be beholden to anyone coming that's that's the nature of human sin and human destruction, but when we when we were talking with somebody we should seek to be compassionate in the way that we speak and to let them know that the these are not these are not insurmountable things that you just have to deal with forever that there is a way that God can, God can work if you actually care about what God says if you actually want to be clear and you actually want these things to be settled. It will require you to submit to God and his word.

But if if you don't then you will continually be frustrated and you will continually push back against it and you will live your life and that perpetual tension of of pushing back and coming back and pushing back and eventually over time you your heart will be hardened in that process and you will be given over to the things that you ultimately desire and and that's a sad thing for anybody whether whether they struggle with gender identity or they're just a lost religious person who really doesn't love the Lord and really doesn't love people wouldn't and doesn't and they just become even more hardened and strident in their own self-righteousness and in good works that they think are are somehow make the meritorious in God's eyes, but we we all come before God is broken needy sinners and in God is a gracious and merciful Savior and he has promised to redeem the he came to seek to seek and to save those who were lost and what an amazing God that we serve the he he reaches out you know I was a lost religious kid, you know, I grew up in church and I had a lot of the right answers to the to the questions but I needed a Savior and of God can come in and rescue someone like me, he can rescue someone who is is broken and and downcast and has all kinds of cold confusing questions about their own identity and how they feel nothing feels right. You know more. He says in the film. Her mom gave her the advice when she was just coming out of transgender is him to trust them by faith can't make your feelings a source of faith. You have to trust in something more from the called every believer. Whatever you struggle. This is been a short take the Christian will be with David.
