Lets Get Real

Let me start this by saying I am going to make most religious people very mad when I make and some of my AG friends are going to very offended by some of the statements I am about to make well I want to address the Issue of being Transgendered and Being a Christian let’s take a look at the Scripture that everyone uses to beat Cross dressers over the head with. 5 The woman shall not wear that which pertaineth unto a man, neither shall a man put on a woman's garment: for all that do so are abomination unto the LORD thy God.

Duet 22:5 (KJV)

Ok let’s look at this lets talk about all the women who wear their husbands shirts around the house or the hunting attire that is meant for men to wear and men’s jeans t shirts well I never her Pastors telling the women that they are going to die and go to hell like they do the men that cross dress and let me say this that Cross dressing is not the same as being transgendered but I also want point this out the very Same law book this came from I.e. the old testament also would point out to the Churches that have Bar b que dinners made with smoked Pork Butt is also unacceptable let’s look at these verses .

1 And the LORD spake unto Moses and to Aaron, saying unto them, 2 Speak unto the children of Israel, saying, These are the beasts which ye shall eat among all the beasts that are on the earth. 3 Whatsoever parteth the hoof, and is clovenfooted, and cheweth the cud, among the beasts, that shall ye eat. 4 Nevertheless these shall ye not eat of them that chew the cud, or of them that divide the hoof: as the camel, because he cheweth the cud, but divideth not the hoof; he is unclean unto you. 5 And the coney, because he cheweth the cud, but divideth not the hoof; he is unclean unto you. 6 And the hare, because he cheweth the cud, but divideth not the hoof; he is unclean unto you. 7 And the swine, though he divide the hoof, and be clovenfooted, yet he cheweth not the cud; he is unclean to you. 8 Of their flesh shall ye not eat, and their carcase shall ye not touch; they are unclean to you.

What fishes?

9 These shall ye eat of all that are in the waters: whatsoever hath fins and scales in the waters, in the seas, and in the rivers, them shall ye eat. 10 And all that have not fins and scales in the seas, and in the rivers, of all that move in the waters, and of any living thing which is in the waters, they shall be an abomination unto you: 11 They shall be even an abomination unto you; ye shall not eat of their flesh, but ye shall have their carcases in abomination. 12 Whatsoever hath no fins nor scales in the waters, that shall be an abomination unto you.

Lev 11:1-12 (KJV)

That means the churches that have fish fry’s that use catfish are in direct violation to the writ of God that they also preach from Duet 22.

So let’s get real if you preach one you MUST preach the other. I also want you to remember the law was never meant for you, the love and Grace of Jesus was plus if you remove the dietary laws then you remove all the laws from the Old Testament

Gifts and callings

As I begin this Blog I want to make it clear that regardless of the Fact of me being Transgendered I still Have Gift and a calling on my life to preach the gospel of Jesus Christ  Paul himself said in the book of  Romans  this   “

29 For the gifts and calling of God are without repentance.

Romans 11:29 (KJV)”

I know that he was talking about the Jews but the same thing applies for us today if you have a calling on your life to the ministry of Jesus Christ he would not remove that from you because of being transgendered because the word also says this “

14 I will praise thee; for I am fearfully and wonderfully made: marvelous are thy works; and that my soul knoweth right well

Psalms 139:14 (KJV)

and it is my firm belief that you are who you are and you are what you are because it was Gods will for you to be who you was. I am given the question time and time again “How can you be a Christian and be transgendered well the word says this about that issue and Jesus  said this Himself  in John 3:16 For God so loved the ( World ) that He (God ) gave His only Begotten Son,That Whosoever (World) Believeth in him should not perish,But have everlasting life. Well the way I see it that covers the Straight Gay Bi and Transsexuals to some of my old friends back in the Fundamental churches I have been a member of that is a hard thing to swallow, but let me make it clear that is not my view that is the Plain Gospel of Jesus Christ. Do you remember the Blind man people asked was he born blind because of his parents sin ?and Jesus said this that his glory would be shown here is that text

2 And his disciples asked him, saying, Master, who did sin, this man, or his parents, that he was born blind? 3 Jesus answered, Neither hath this man sinned, nor his parents: but that the works of God should be made manifest in him.

John 9:2-3 (KJV)

and now I will say this that before I came out of the closet as a Trans woman  I was the most judge mental person that ever walked the face of the earth well now I have found my self having more Grace and mercy to give others the word says to whom much is given much is required  so with that said I have to give a whole lot of Grace and love Why ? Because Jesus him self gave that to me  when He Laid his life down for me he laid his life down for a trans Woman by the name of Alicia N Neal and to Him I owe Him every thing and I praise the Name of Jesus  for that fact he saw Alicia and He Loved and still loves Alicia for who Alicia is . I have become a part of a great ministry and I want to thank my new Bishop the Rev Avery Hester for extending me my Ordination Papers today so I am now the Rev Alicia Neal Legally . In the next few days I will be formulating a mid week Bible study online so be in prayer for this new venture,

With Love

The Rev.Alicia N Neal
