Ancient Hate
“…as he spoke by the mouth of his holy prophets from of old, that we should be saved from our enemies, and from the hand of all who hate us..”
The rulers of this present darkness burn with hatred of God and everything he made. Especially humans. Our very being bears His image.
So God created man in his own image, in the image of God he created him; male and female he created them.
Our male & female bodies are bound up in being, in the imago Dei.
The war against the maleness and femaleness of the human body means to deface the Image of God.
