Recap: Week one, Billy spoke on Sexuality the Honours God. Last week I began to to look at: What Does it Mean to Be Trans? What the Bible says about this. Today we will continue to look at: What the Bible says and also What Our response should be towards the LGBT Community? [The numbering continues from last week]. 6. The Bible and Cross-Sex Behaviour Scripture prohibits cross-sex behaviour. Scripture doesn’t often mention people publicly presenting themselves as the opposite sex. But when it does, it always prohibits such behaviour. For instance: Deuteronomy 22:5 prohibits cross-dressing: “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.” A few interpretive difficulties surround this command. The most important one is whether this command applies to Christians or whether it’s only part of the old covenant law that’s no longer applicable to Christians. I believe that this command carries lasting relevance
