Men's Urinals In Women's Restrooms?



"So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them.
 And God blessed them, and God said unto them, Be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the earth, and subdue it: and have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over every living thing that moves upon the earth."
Genesis 1:27, 28

In the beginning, when God originally created people, He made them both male and female. In all the animal world, we see both males and females. Even in the plant world, we see males and females. 

  God made people to be either male or female. But with the modernistic thinking which says, 'man is the measure of all things' people have looked at this differently. 

   In some places, people are recommending that the doctor who delivers the baby should not announce the sex of the baby. Yes, this is really happening in our country. The reason for this 'non-announcement' is simply because the people who are calling the shots believe that a child should decide what sex he or she should really be. 

  Today, we have a situation at hand, where a well known store is making available the permission for any person who wants to use the store restroom to be free to go into the restroom of choice, rather than the restroom which matches their gender. 

   In this same store, they are installing urinals in the women's restrooms, just in case a man, who is a wanna-be woman needs to go pee. Just imagine the ramifications of this scenario. What would prevent a child sexual predator from using the restroom? Would people send their child into a restroom that is not safe? What about the women who do not want to share their restroom with a man? Would a normal man be comfortable with a woman in his restroom? Who is in charge of this decision anyway?

Some have suggested that Target simply have a family restroom or a restroom available for either sex, along with both the men's and women's restrooms. 

     Friends, there is an agenda here and the issue really isn't over transgender's rights to the restroom. There are powerful groups out there, such as the ACLU, which are trying to destroy the freedoms of the average person, under the guise of protecting the rights of small groups, such as transgenders and homosexuals. But it goes beyond the boundaries of all this. It isn't necessarily protecting the rights of these people as much as it is taking away the rights of people who have boundaries and convictions. Not only that, these groups support those who are described in Romans 1, which we all know about. 
(These groups are run by people who serve a puppets for Satan, who is the mastermind behind all evil schemes).

   This is deeper than just homosexuality, lesbianism, and transgenderism. These groups are viciously attacking the average person who knows the difference between right and wrong,  & good, and evil. They are the perverts of today, who have gained power and are backed financially by the government. All under the guise, of course, of protection for the small groups from harassment and bigotry. You see, if a person has convictions just based out of the common grace of God, he or she is going to have to let go of those convictions in order to make way for those who are perverted. 

   The Bible says that there is no new thing under the sun. We see this throughout the Old Testament, as well as in the New Testament and throughout History. God is very patient with us, because He knows that some will come to Christ. He knows that they will turn away from their sin and trust in Him. Otherwise, God would just destroy us all. He is merciful and wants us to come to repentance and faith in Him. He wants us to experience the power of the Gospel in our lives. 

   People think that because they can get away with crime and shameful sin, that God doesn't care. But nothing could be further from the truth. God will put up with horrible sin in order to reach those who will turn to Him. Those who don't turn to Him in repentance and faith will end up in the Lake of Fire for eternity. They have their chance for turning to God, while here on earth. 

   What can we do to make a difference in this dilemma? For one thing, we can be praying. Praying is not just some kind of activity that we do in the morning and then check it off on our check list. We are involved in a spiritual battle whether we like it or not. So, we must pray and we need to fast. We need to be in tune with the Holy Spirit and we need to learn discernment. God will help us pray as we pray in the Spirit. We have to put on the whole armor of God in order to fight in this battle. We cannot sit on the sidelines anymore. 

"All that is necessary for evil to triumph is for good men to do nothing." (Edmund Burke). God's word is clear that we are in a spiritual battle. We certainly cannot fight is alone, nor can we take the attitude that God is sovereign and everything will be ok. Yes, God is sovereign, but He gives us work to do while on earth. He doesn't want us to sit back and do nothing because He is in control. 

"Not by might, nor by power, but by my Spirit says the Lord of hosts." Zechariah 4:6

It is the devil who wants us to lay our weapons down. If he can't get us to do that, then he will make us feel defeated and we will just sit there and wait for the rapture to happen so we can escape. 

UPDATE: Please read! I found out this morning that the story of the urinals that are supposedly being installed in a women's restroom in Target, north of L.A. is false. Why people do this is beyond me. I found the article on Snopes.com saying that is it not true. I am sorry for any misleading in this article. 
Having said all this, I am still just as opposed to Target's decision to allow transgenders into the restrooms of their choice, regardless of what sex the person is. This decision could easily lead to much harm for many people, especially children. I would recommend that if you do shop at Target, please do not allow your children to use the restrooms unless an adult is with them. There are horror stories that come from public store restrooms.
