(10/01/2015) Gender and Salvation?

Today, Scripture points are shared on equal access to Christ for males and females with prophecies and signs of the end times.  Rather than the peculiar issues of equality and social justice, the assurances and promises of GOD in Christ address impartial (we say, righteous) judgment and spiritual unity (we say, oneness without sameness).  Thus, consider again the following assurance to eunuchs (we say, those underdeveloped or surgically altered), and the verses from the Bible that appear below:  Isaiah 56: 1-7, King James Version (KJV):   1 Thus saith the LORD, Keep ye judgment, and do justice:  for my salvation is near to come, and my righteousness to be revealed. 2 Blessed is the man that doeth this, and the son of man that layeth hold on it; that keepeth the sabbath from polluting it, and keepeth his hand from doing any evil. 3 Neither let the son of the stranger, that hath joined himself to the LORD, speak, saying, The LORD hath utterly separated me from his people:  neither let the eunuch say, Behold, I am a dry tree. 4 For thus saith the LORD unto the eunuchs that keep my sabbaths, and choose the things that please me, and take hold of my covenant; 5 Even unto them will I give in mine house and within my walls a place and a name better than of sons and of daughters: I will give them an everlasting name, that shall not be cut off. 6 Also the sons of the stranger, that join themselves to the LORD, to serve him, and to love the name of the LORD, to be his servants, every one that keepeth the sabbath from polluting it, and taketh hold of my covenant; 7 Even them will I bring to my holy mountain, and make them joyful in my house of prayer:  their burnt offerings and their sacrifices shall be accepted upon mine altar; for mine house shall be called an house of prayer for all people.  The writer at “Yahoo!

Does the bible mention something about not being able to tell women & men apart as a sign of the end?


THE GOLDEN ARROW:  This know also, that in the last days perilous times shall come.  For men shall be lovers of their own selves, covetous, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy,  Without natural affection, trucebreakers, false accusers, incontinent, fierce, despisers of those that are good,  Traitors, heady, highminded, lovers of pleasures more than lovers of God;  Having a form of godliness but denying the power thereof:  from such turn away.  (2nd Timothy 3:  1-5, KJV)

(10/31/2012); After the Rapture? (11/01/2012); Women Ordained to Minister? (10/27/2012); Does Everyone Go To Heaven? (10/28/2012); The Gender of Angels? (10/09/2012); Sin Unknown? (10/10/2012)


“Margot”, the Bible declares that, through the ministries of Jesus Christ (upon the earth as well as from heaven as Risen Lord), all mankind now has an advocate, a redeemer, and a savior who intercedes on our behalf in the presence of GOD.   The male and female have equal access to divinity, are assured that their appearance in judgment will be met without bias or favor due to masculinity and femininity, and such differences as gender, nationality, ethnic origin, or sexual identity are no barrier to their attaining benefits from GOD.  For each believer, the Spirit of GOD completes water baptism (death of ones inborn spirit), and rebirth supplying inseparable spirit substance from the makeup of GOD such as faith, forgiveness, holiness, hope, longsuffering, love, wisdom and wrath against sin.  Here are a few verses from the Bible that have helped many Christian believers to avoid error and spiritual confusion about gender and salvation.  Correctly understood, just as they are neither mortal nor immortal, angels, devils and other spirit beings are neither male nor female; and these verses do not speak at all about androgeny, bisexuality, hermaphrodites, homosexuality, and various same-sex issues:

(1.)  Galatians 3:  26-29, King James Version (KJV):  26 For ye are all the children of God by faith in Christ Jesus.  27 For as many of you as have been baptized into Christ have put on Christ.  28 There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither bond nor free, there is neither male nor female:  for ye are all one in Christ Jesus.  29 And if ye be Christ’s, then are ye Abraham’s seed, and heirs according to the promise.

(2.)  Proverbs 22:  2, KJV:  2 The rich and poor meet together:  The LORD is the maker of them all.

(3.)  Romans 10:  12, KJV:  For there is no difference between the Jew and the Greek:  for the same Lord over all is rich unto all that call upon him. 
There is far more to be said, correctly applied, and spiritually apprehended.  (For example, (4.)  Colossians 3:  9-11, KJV:  9 Lie not one to another, seeing that you have put off the old man with his deeds;  10 And have put on the new man, which is renewed in knowledge after the image of him that created him:  11 Where there is neither Greek nor Jew, circumcision nor uncircumcision, Barbarian, Scythian, bond nor free:  but Christ is all, and in all.)  Even so, I trust this fragment will be useful.  Be it unto you according to your faith.
