Pop culture has boldly gone to another level of perversion! The television show DANCING WITH THE STARS has chosen to cast CHASTITY/CHAZ BONO as a dance contestant on its show. CHASTITY/CHAZ BONO, who was born a female, is the daughter of Cher and the late Sony Bono. Satan, in a prideful effort to flaunt and parade his and man’s RE-CREATION OF A HUMAN before the world, has found a deceived and willing pawn in CHASTITY/ CHAZ BONO.

Saints sadly we’re living in a time when things are no longer as they seem.  Imagine while shopping in Wal-Mart, you run into an old acquaintance from your past that immediately recognizes you, but you don’t quite recognize them.  They look kind of familiar but you still can’t put your finger on who they are.  The fact that they know your name, and are so confident in the fact that they know you, makes you awkwardly embarrassed. Then finally after connecting all the dots that connects you and them, the light goes off on who they are, and now you’re faced with wanting to ask them…DIDN’T YOU USED TO BE…A MAN/WOMAN?  What exactly do you do? Do you quickly find a reason to get out of the store?  Do you try and minister to them about their choice to correct what they feel was God’s mistake? Or, do you stand there and converse with them as though everything is normal?  And what do you say when they begin to tell you in exciting fashion about the NEW THEM? There’s no easy answer, and unfortunately sensitive issues like this that force most Christians to go in the closet with their beliefs is a common scenario in 21st century America. Gender reclassification and gender bending trends are now the NEW NORM, and even though you try and turn the channel, they’re now dancing their way right IN YOUR LIVING ROOM.

So what’s paved the way for such a climate of perversion in our nation?  How have things that were once shunned, and done in secret, come to the forefront and become THE NEW ACCEPTABLE NORMS? Well as I’ve written before the enemy has had to slowly change the climate and mindset of people over a sustained period of time.  Even the devil knows that any SUDDEN CHANGE will arouse suspicion and cause an alarm to go off. So he has to SLOW WALK a culture into spiritual and moral decline. His plan is strategic, the warfare is spiritual and it’s waged on 4 fronts. Those fronts are Political, religious, educational and in entertainment (this post is just dealing with entertainment). Through these 4 fronts spiritual warfare is waged on the culture to think opposite of Christ and the bible. What’s eventually created over a period of time is a CORPORATE CONSCIOUSNESS of a culture and society that hates Christ, and it strategically comes together to undermine THE WORD OF GOD and slowly sway Gods people into error right along with everyone else. The enemy’s goal is for there to only be a difference ON THE SURFACE, between the WORLD AND THE CHURCH, giving the church only a form of godliness….BUT ABSOLUTELY NO POWER TO CHANGE LIVES, or the enemy’s agenda.

IN THE NAME OF ENTERTAINMENT

The enemy used the bait of comedy/entertainment as one of the ways to slow walk our society into the acceptance of the occult and witchcraft with such shows as THE MUNSTERS, THE ADAMS FAMILY, BEWITCHED and I DREAM OF JEANNIE etc. Remember old funny clumsy Herman? Remember smart Samantha, and dumb Darren? What about  the silly, but erotic chemistry Major Nelson and Jeannie?  Should we be surprised that there’s now a generation that finds Harry Potter, witchcraft, the occult, and demons attractive? Well, in the same way the enemy has slow walked our culture, EVEN THE CHURCH into TRANSGENDER ACCEPTANCE! Actually the enemy has had us laughing and considering gender bending trends for years, even though most Christians know Deuteronomy 22:5 says…

“A woman must not wear men’s clothing, nor a man wear women’s clothing, for the LORD your God detests anyone who does this.”

But for years, putting the detestable transgender agenda in comedy & entertainment has been the norm.  Many may not know that Charlie Chaplin, and Stan Laurel (LAUREL & HARDY), were very popular female impersonators of heir time. Then there was Milton Berle, Jonathan Winters and Flip Wilson (GERALDINE). How could we ever forget about the singing and dancing transvestite in the ROCKY HORROR PICTURE SHOW? Then there are more modern entertainers such as Dustin Hoffman, Eddie Murphy, Martin Lawrence, Jamie Foxx, Robin Williams, Jim Carey, even Ving Rhames and Wesley Snipes. These are just a few that have put on a dress, lipstick and pumps all in the name of ENTERTAINMENT! But guess what? The church wasn’t going be out done by the world. The church went and found MADEA! Or maybe it was the other way around…Tyler Perry found an undiscerning church. Either way, in the climate of don’t ask don’t tell, men marrying men, Joel Osteen praying at the inauguration of a lesbian Mayor in Houston, the President fulfilling just about every campaign promise he made the LBGT community, and CHASTITY/CHAZ BONO now wanting to dance the transgender agenda into your living room, the church finding a CROSSED DRESSED MAN misquoting scriptures funny is troubling to say the least. What you have to understand is

WHATEVER SIN A GENERATION SINGS AND LAUGHS ABOUT, IS THE SIN THEY WILL LATER LEGISLATE INTO LAWS…EVEN THOUGH GODS LAW IS WRITTEN IN THEIR HEARTS.

PROVERBS 14:12 There is a way which seems right to a man, But its end is the way of death.

DIDN’T YOU USE TO BE…A MAN/WOMAN is not a question that most people want to have to deal with on the spot in Wal-Mart, but it is an issue that has to be dealt with, through the authority of scripture. Why is that you say? If you don’t deal with it through the authority of scripture, CHASTITY/CHAZ BONO, CNN, THE GOVERNMENT, or your child’s school will deal with it through human reasoning, psychology, comedy, gender bending school curriculum, entertainment etc. Now that the songs and ideas of FREE LOVE, and SELF EXPRESSION of the 60’s have been sung and laughed all the way into THE CURRENT NORMS AND LAWS of our times, true believers CAN’T WAIVER on what they know to be true. We have to be clear… GOD IS NOT THE AUTHOR OF THIS CONFUSION!!! The only way DIDN’T YOU USE TO BE…A MAN/WOMAN will ever become a question that gets a second thought in the hearts of those deceived in our culture, is true believers have to trust in the POWER OF THE UNCOMPROMISING GOSPEL, and leave the results to God.
