The Attack Has Begun
Good day to each of you reading this column concerning our Lord.
Just the other night on Hannity, the strangest news came from Sean Hannity concerning our Lord, Jesus Christ.
I am not making the following up—
Cambridge professor says it’s ‘legitimate’ to believe Jesus had a ‘trans body’
The dean of Trinity College at the University of Cambridge in the United Kingdom is under fire for defending a sermon by a graduate student that said Jesus Christ had a “trans body.”
Joshua Heath, a junior research fellow at the college, using medieval and Renaissance art for examples, said Jesus’s body is both masculine and feminine and that the crucified Christ’s side wound “takes on a decidedly vaginal appearance” during a sermon at the Anglican evensong service at the Trinity College chapel, the Daily Telegraph reported.
“In Christ’s simultaneously masculine and feminine body in these works, if the body of Christ as these works suggest the body of all bodies, then his body is also the trans body,” Heath reportedly said.
The sermon drew outrage from congregants, who complained to Trinity College Dean Michael Banner about what they said was a heretical sermon that made many of them uncomfortable.
“I am especially contemptuous of such imagery when it is applied to our Lord from the pulpit at evensong,” one person told Banner. “I am contemptuous of the notion that we should be invited to contemplate the martyrdom of a ‘trans Christ,’ a new heresy for our age.”
But the dean defended the sermon and his invitation to Heath.
“I think that speculation was legitimate, whether or not you or I or anyone else disagrees with the interpretation, says something else about that artistic tradition, or resists its application to contemporary questions around transsexualism,” Banner told the Telegraph, adding that he “would not issue an invitation to someone who I thought would deliberately seek to shock or offend a congregation or who could be expected to speak against the Christian faith.”
A spokesperson for Trinity College told the Daily Mail that neither Banner nor Heath “suggested Jesus was transgender.”
“The sermon addressed the image of Christ depicted in art and various interpretations of those artistic portrayals,” the college said. “The sermon’s exploration of the nature of religious art, in the spirit of thought-provoking academic inquiry, was in keeping with open debate and dialogue at the University of Cambridge.”
Fellow Christian, please read this article and take this to your pastor to be read to the congregation! This is pure filth and as a Christian, let us not stand for such filth!
It is time that Christians understand they are under attack and we must read the Bible fervently each day and grow stronger in Christ.
Have you considered the following? Turn to Ephesians 6:10-18(NIV)
The Amour of God
10 Finally, be strong in the Lord and in his mighty power.
11 Put on the full armor of God, so that you can take your stand against the devil’s schemes.
12 For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms.
13 Therefore put on the full armor of God, so that when the day of evil comes, you may be able to stand your ground, and after you have done everything, to stand.
14 Stand firm then, with the belt of truth buckled around your waist, with the breastplate of righteousness in place,
15 and with your feet fitted with the readiness that comes from the gospel of peace.
16 In addition to all this, take up the shield of faith, with which you can extinguish all the flaming arrows of the evil one.
17 Take the helmet of salvation and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God.
18 And pray in the Spirit on all occasions with all kinds of prayers and requests.
It seems to me that we have become “lapdogs” when it comes to insults, negative commentary, attacks on our belief, and defaming our Christ as read in the above article.
We must stand for something or we will fall for anything—I must ask why prominent ministers have not voiced their thoughts to their congregations and to the press on the above subject.
Where is the outrage and where are the Great Britain pastors who are herding their flock? It is so strange that LGBTQ can make such a large noise and yet Christians are as silent as lambs!
I pray that you reading this article whether it be in the USA or the rest of the world, stand and send this to your fellow Christian that the article is a heresy and pure filth!
May this day and each day begin with putting on The Armor of God, for without it, we are helpless!
In closing, Let not your heart be troubled: ye believe in God, believe also in me.
