Cross Dressing-When A Woman Dresses In Pants Is It innocent Or Does God Hate Such Action?

When one pulls up to a stop sign what is it that is being communicated to the person? Undoubtedly the obvious communication is that the person must stop. But why? Nothing is said on the sign as to why the person must stop. This is taken as a thing that is supposed to be understood by the driver, or that person should not be driving. The reason for the command is for the driver to stop in order that he can look both ways and thus respond to the traffic that may or may not be present on the road that day. Thus the actual commandment only has value because it allows for the more important reasoning behind it, which is to slow down sufficiently (stop) in order to consider the traffic on the road way and then act accordingly.

God's law that commands that the sexes must adorn themselves differently the one from the other is like this. The greatest importance of it is in the reasoning behind it, this reasoning goes beyond the immediate sphere of men's lives. Yahweh's laws that related to the adornment of the sexes have not only an earthly need for fulfillment, meaning they are needed to properly direct the affairs of man on the earth for his immediate good and protection, but also they represent heavenly and eternal realities at the same time. The following is an explanation of the heavenly realities that are reflected in clothing, explaining why Yahweh considers it an abomination for men and women to dress alike.

The law of God that commands that the sexes be adorned distinctively different, the one from the other, is found stated in Deuteronomy 22:5. It is said in this same reading that any man who dresses like a woman, or any woman who dresses like a man is an abomination to the Lord. I myself in the blindness of unbelief lived in violation of this commandment until I was 42 years of age. That means I was a Christian with an active testimony for 28 years before the Holy One brought me to the place where I could see His law and be convicted of my sin. The spirit of what is called feminism, which is the disruption or deterioration of Divine Order, (the order of authority: God-Christ-Man-Woman) is extremely prevalent in the world and I might add in the church. Satan, wishing to corrupt the truth of God has sown much confusion into the world, teaching men that in reference to headship the woman is equal to the man, thus denying and corrupting God's order. Again, remember that the Yahweh made the human person illustrative of both Himself and the chief object of His love: the church or individual Believer. The man represents God Himself, the woman represents the Church or individual Believer. Therefore when a woman dresses like a man she is saying by her practice that she is the same as, or equal to a man, and in that she is a representation of a Believer the act of her dressing as a man is saying that a Believer is the same as, or equal to the Lord. For a man to dress as a woman is to give the illustration that God has surrendered His headship over men so that He is the same as man. These testimonies are slanderous and therefore detestable to God. Therefore cross dressing, or the mixing of adornment is slanderous to God and therefore an abomination. For remember that clothes have three basic purposes:

• To protect from the elements.



• To protect modesty, for all human persons are sexually oriented, therefore the covering of the body is of absolute necessity.



• Clothes are illustrative. They by their nature are designed to give illustration pertaining to the one that wears them. Even as a police officer is known by his uniform, or a soldier by his, or a white color worker by his. In like manner a woman's adornment must signal that she is NOT a male, but female.

So what we find in modern America is that the humanistic thought patterns, that have sprung forth from man's wisdom (versus obedience to God's laws) have created almost an entire culture that cross dresses continually, and in our ignorance of God's ways we think little or nothing of it. But I say to you that this practice has everything to do with the spirit of feminism that prevails in this society, which has every thing to do with the nearly 70 % divorce rate for first time marriages, the fact that nearly 50% of all young couple refuse to marriage, but “cohabitate”, (which is living with the “back door” of the relationship open so that either can leave the relationship with relative ease when they may want to) that our Internet boasts nearly 1,000.000 pornography sites, that we have “legally” murder over 40 million unborn children, (abortion) These facts reflect that America has accepted “wisdom” that is not wisdom at all, but perversion of thought made to look good by the “wolves in sheep's clothing” that influence our people. Who are the “wolves in sheep's clothing” that influence our people? They are the ministers and educators, and politicians, and all others who guide and teach our people, but refuse to acknowledge the laws of Yahweh and turn and do righteousness, and teach others to live in obedience to God's laws.

Cross dressing, that of dressing a women as a man, or any other variety in which it may be found is a sin. It is an detestable act in Yahweh's sight.

The word America is repent! Turn to God from the wisdom of men. Flush the worthless and confused preachers and educators that teach for doctrine the wisdom of men. (man's misguided intelligence that refuses to acknowledge Yahweh and His laws) He made man as the highest of all his creation, to live in the honor of knowing Him and His ways, thus by their lifestyle reflecting His truth in the world. He did not create man to wallow in the mire of the immorality that springs forth from the supposed wisdom of men. For the wisdom of men without the fear of God is at it's very best: foolishness.
