It is hard to know how many L (lesbian) G (gay) B (Bi-sexual) T (transgender) people there really are out there — percent-wise. Supposed statistics range from 4 to 23%.

It is my observation that the younger generation — particularly kids now in Jr. or St. high — are much more open toward considering whether they are really Trans-gender.

Like you, the confusion breaks my heart. Many of us would attribute the rise in this to God’s judgment upon the West — in Romans 1 fashion. We are being “turned over.”

How do I mark conversations as read? Thanks.

Here’s the million-dollar question on Christmas Eve – was the author of Hebrews serious in Heb 7:3 when he described Melchisidec, or was he making a typological argument from silence!?

Here is the text in question (I’m doing Heb 7:1-14, but my question is from vv.1-3):

With a constant barrage of conflicts, disagreement, and bad news, it is time for a light Christmas post!

What will be your main entree for Christmas dinner? Or, if you eat your big meal on Christmas Eve, that will do as well!

What is usually your main dinner course Christmas Day or Eve?

The term “Messianic Judaism” represents as broad a spectrum as the term “evangelical.” It includes many flavors and viewpoints. Our question is about Messianic Judaism in its better representations — those congregations that embrace evangelical essentials, such as salvation by grace alone through faith alone in Christ (Messiah) alone, the Triune God, and the authority of both Old and New Testament. This, I believe, is probably the majority viewpoint.
