WHY ARE YOU RAISING YOUR SON.......As a girl?

Why I’m Raising My Son As A Girl – Hollywood Actress C. Theron

Introduction

God did not create anyone by mistake.  Everyone is created with a perfect understanding from the Almighty God what that person is to be on earth and what he or she will do.  

God told Jeremiah in Jeremiah 1: 5-7 that before I formed thee in the belly I knew thee; and before thou camest forth out of the womb I sanctified thee, and I ordained thee a prophet unto the nations.

Then said I, Ah, Lord God! behold, I cannot speak: for I am a child.  But the Lord said unto me, Say not, I am a child: for thou shalt go to all that I shall send thee, and whatsoever I command thee thou shalt speak. - Jer 1:4-7

The reality of today's world

Children in our time face so many adult-level issues and challenges.  They witness things they should never see. Part of our role as parents is to protect them, and as much as we can, shield them from these situations and images they should not see or hear about.  

It is very important for parents with growing children to diligently protect their children from negative stories and influences, so they can actually grow up as children.  This has become a struggle with the internet and the school systems we have these days.

School teachers ask primary school children to search the internet for answers to school questions when they know the kind of materials that could prop up against these children.  

We have children that are already behaving like adults, dressing like adults and hardly understand they are but children in their teenage years.  Children encounter complicated and dangerous matters from relatives and oftentimes, ungodly parents. 

Parents should respect the opinion of children, but when a child of 3 years says he prefers to be raised as a girl, instead of the boy he is, then he should be counselled and taught the word of God.  It means the child has little knowledge of the creator and the plan of God for every living soul.

Overwhelming situations

The situations and stories that children hear and see can easily overwhelm them.  Imagine a baby of three years saying he prefers to be a girl, instead of a boy that God created him as.  

A child of 3 years is not yet accountable for his or her actions, because he does not understand most of the things they say at such age.  So, for a single mother to start raising up a boy as a girl because the child said at age three that he would like to be a girl is not right.  Take the case of Job in Job1:5.  

The bible recorded that Job when his children complete their days of feasting, Job would send and consecrate them, rising up early in the morning and offer burnt offerings according to the number of them all; for Job said, “Perhaps my sons have sinned and cursed God in their hearts.” Thus Job did continually - Job 1:5.  These are children in their teenage years, not to talk of a 3 years old baby.

If the woman is a Christian, she would have searched for a solution in the bible and discover that the child is not yet of the age of accountability and cannot be allowed to decide anything at all, not to mention a matter that can destroy God's purpose for his life.

Men and women of God, Christian parents should avoid this kind of error, as we will all account for our stewardship of our children before the Lord on the judgement day.  Anyone that has made this kind of mistake can still retrace his or her steps back and prayerfully ask God to forgive him/her and heal the child.

The story:

Why I’m Raising My Son As A Girl – Hollywood Actress Charlize Theron

Hollywood actress, Charlize Theron has broken silence in reaction to reports that she is raising her son to dress and act like a girl.

The South Africa born actress has been spotted several times with her son rocking braids and wearing a girl’s dress.

In an interview with dailymail, Charlize Theron stated that her decision to raise the kid that way is simply because that’s what the kid wants – to be a girl.

Yes, I thought she was a boy, too,’ Charlize agrees, briskly. ‘Until she looked at me when she was three years old and said: ‘I am not a boy!

So there you go! I have two beautiful daughters who, just like any parent, I want to protect and I want to see thrive. They were born who they are and exactly where in the world both of them get to find themselves as they grow up, and who they want to be, is not for me to decide.

My job as a parent is to celebrate them and to love them and to make sure that they have everything they need in order to be what they want to be. And I will do everything in my power for my kids to have that right and to be protected within that.’

For Christian parents

The duty of parents is to love and take care of their children and bring them up in the ways of the Lord.  The bible says if we bring up the children in the ways of the Lord, they will, in turn, give us peace of mind in the future.  So, parents spent hours daily praying for their children to know the Lord early, gain understanding and become wise children.  Parents spend every minute of their time to teach, train and guide the children, helping them to become what God wants them to be.

While the fathers are working on the male children helping them to develop godly attitudes and strong self-worth, the mothers are training the daughters to be good wives in the future by teaching them things that women handle at home like cooking and caring for the entire family.  Teaching her to be virtuous, hard-working, and loving for their husband and children.

These are the obligation of parents before God. Parents pray for their children's protection, purity and wisdom. These will virtues will help the child develop into a mighty man or woman for Christ.  God answers our prayers and such children upon whom prayer investment is made usually turn out to be lovers of God, rooted and grounded in His love.

In view of the duties of parents to their children, it is important to ask Christian parents whether the following is permeated in the bible?   

Question for Parents

1. Can the parent determine the sex of a child?  NO.  The Essex of a child is already determined by God, the creator

2. Can a Christian bring up a son as a girl?   NO - That's an abomination as it will destroy the destiny of the child.

3. Should a Christian boy be dressed like a girl?  NO.  The bible says we should not dress like the opposite sex.

4. Is it everything your son or daughter wants that you give him or her?  NO.  Only what is necessary for their spiritual and physical growth is given to them.

Conclusion

The conclusion of all things is that the King, Jesus Christ is coming back soon to rapture the saints, to be with Him.  If you have not received Him as your Lord and personal Saviour,  do it today, don't wait another day.

Say this prayer: 

“Lord Jesus, I need You. Thank You for dying on the cross for my sins. I open the door of my heart and receive You as my Lord and Savior. Thank You for forgiving my sins and giving me eternal life. Take control of the throne of my life. Make me the kind of person You want me to be.”
