In America, this day--we are seeing the implementation of normalizing evil/sin. Unless there is national repentance(2Chron7:14), and God has mercy, He will have to judge this great nation. Below, I have listed 9 stages that nations go through as evil/sin becomes the norm!
  The normalization of Sin has two parts:
A.Individual Sin
B.National Sin
Let’s begin!
-“The wicked walk on every side, when the vilest men are exalted.”  
                                                                     -Ps12:8
-“Woe unto them that call evil good, and good evil; that put darkness for light, and light for darkness; that put bitter for sweet, and sweet for bitter!”    -Is5:20
-“And also all that generation were gathered unto their fathers: and there arose another generation after them, which knew not the LORD, nor yet the works which he had done for Israel.”                                 
                                         -Judges 2:10 (2:11-13)
 
A.Individual sin
i.Doubt. This means the people of a nation begin ignoring their own personal sin by sowing seeds of ‘doubt’ in their own hearts. For example, departing from church attendance, scheduling sporting events on Sunday morning, especially for children; removing the Bible and/or prayer from public schools; reducing church services to an hour because people have things to do on Sunday; using Sunday mornings for “family time” etc.
  These seeds of ‘doubt’ manifest into internalized statements like: “I don’t understand the Bible”; “I’m too/very busy”; “I don’t have time”; “Sunday is my only day for family!”; “I need to support my kids in their sports on Sunday morning!”
ii. Unbelief. Over time the above seeds of ‘doubt’ begin to sprout in the heart(Mk4:3-20), making God’s word the same as any other voice, which means there is no more “trembling” at God’s word (Is66:2). Tragically, this is not the end…but the beginning. As time passes in a state of doubt, the heart further descends into making other voices more important than God’s voice/word. I repeat, this all happens internally, in the heart (Pro4:20-23).
  As doubt descends and is established, it suddenly turns into ‘Unbelief’; which is defined as the INTERNAL rejection of God’s word! I repeat, the sin of doubt ignores God’s word—and naturally and normally descends into unbelief, which rejects God’s word!
iii.Trivialize sin. Apathy, lethargy; “I don’t care!”; “What difference does it make?” “To each his own.”
iv.Personal justification/rationalization of sin. Individual endorsement of sin; possessing sin in one’s personal life. This stage often calls sin “passions”, “personal lusts”, “my truth”, “Love is love”; “People can do what they want in their bedroom” etc. This is called relativism, which is a doctrine of the religion of atheism.
a.This stage often exists through a pseudo compassion.
b.On the contrary, compassion, which is different from empathy, is designed by God to apply to people, not to human behaviors or actions.
 
  Sometime during or at the end of stage four, sin enters the public or cultural arena. From this point, the following three stages begin slowly, but increase in their descent as sin becomes more and more popular, ultimately landing in an irredeemable abyss…and the judgment of God!
 
B.Public sin
v.Rename sin. ‘Abortion’ becomes ‘pro-choice’. ‘Fornication’ becomes ‘making love’. ‘Adultery’ becomes ‘Open marriage’…etc., etc.
vi.Affirm sin/Market sin/Celebrate sin (1Cor13:6; Pro28:4) 
a.Celebrate sin or Promote sin in the 8 spheres of life: church, business, government,
    science, academia, media, entertainment, family.
vii.Codify/Legalize sin (Is5:20)
           a.enact laws in favor of the sin
           b.enact laws against God and the Bible
These 2 final stages conclude the cultural normalization of sin.
           viii.Culture can no longer restrict sin, because of normalization. The nation/people group
                  turns violent against each other. (Ps37:32; Gen6:1-13)
ix.God's wrath

The key to all achievement is the ability to endure the pain caused by either the sin nature or the creation during the pursuit of an objective.

  In part 1, I argued that the phrase “I identify as…” at its foundation is idolatry! In part 2, I wrote about race, which is one of two primary ways (race & sex) liberals apply their self-invented statement “I identify as…”.
  In this tidbit, I want to address sex. First, allow me to remind you that God’s perspective on identity is absolute. In other words, there is only one way to identify humanity: the Image and Likeness of God (Gen 1:26-28).
 Now, let’s look at self-identifying using sex. The most often ways—but not exclusive--- liberals use sex to identify is:
1.A woman/female declares: “I identify as a man!”
2.A man/male declares, “I identify as a woman!”
3.A man/male or woman/female declares, "I identify as non-binary—belonging to neither sex, male or female!"
   First, it is critical to understand that the origin of these 3 lies (like self-identifying by race) begins with a rejection of God. How? Liberalism rejects God as the Creator (Col1:16), Whom created mankind as only male and female (Gen1:27; Mat19:4). Liberals reject God as the only Sovereign (1Tim6:15), Whom alone created according to His own desire (Col1:16)…without man’s input* (Pro21:30)! And finally, they reject God as the source of all things (Col1:17).
 Tragically, the sin of rejecting God not only affects the spirit(Rom6:23; 2Thes1:7-9), and the body(1Cor6:18), but also defiles the mind (Tit1:15; Rom1:21)— restricting understanding of life and God---through their sin nature(Rom8:5-9). This evil is illustrated in Jeremiah 2:13 “For my people have committed two evils; they have forsaken ‘me’ the fountain of living waters, and hewed them out cisterns, broken cisterns, that can hold no water.” In other words, rejecting God as the Creator, Sovereign, and Source means the human mind will replace God’s ways with man-made solutions using the sin nature, which I repeat, Jeremiah 2:13 calls “broken cisterns which hold no water”. Of course, the greatest example is, “I identify as…”.
  In the context of self-identifying using sex, because sin does not remain static, over time the sexual perversion of self-identification results in a spiral downward into an ‘irresistible’ free-fall from evil to evil (Jer9:3). In other words, the sin of self-identifying by sex will not only remain as men identifying as women, and women as men. As we have already seen, self-identity has continued its downward spiral into our society, heralding humans who now identify as hundreds of additional invented genders, along with their own choice of personal pronouns. Tragically, this spiral downward has continued to now include humans self-identifying as animals, like cats, dogs, horses, etc. Furthermore, liberals have accepted, legitimatized, and marketed this behavior, even inventing the name ‘Furries’ for humans who re-identify as cats! And what’s more, to accommodate the ‘Furries’ myth, public schools have even placed cat-litters in their bathrooms!!**
 The rejection of God establishes this delusion by negating understanding of the human sin nature, as well as the demonic world behind it!! To the contrary, rejecting this sexual perversion is not an attempt to enforce some Puritanical killjoy on humans! Sexual perversion ignites the human sin nature like a match ignites a can full of gas!! In other words, because the wages of sin is death(Rom 6:23), the downward spiral of sexual perversion literally ends in violence!
 Scripture literally confirms ‘violence of sexual perversion’ in several places, such as:
-Sodom and Gomorrah in Genesis 19:5
-The Levite and his concubine in Judges 19
-The 23,000 deaths of Israelites 1Corinthians 10:8, as judgment for their sexual sin 
  However, the most popular account is found in Genesis 6:1-13, which records Noah’s flood, and the destruction of all mankind except for 8 souls!
  Unless you are living on the moon, oblivious to the world around you, the nations of the world are experiencing a serious uptick in violence as predicted in Matthew 24:37. Therefore, if humans continue down the path of self-identification using “I identify as…” the tragic consequences of the “days of Noe” are destined to return!
  Why? I repeat, rejecting your God-given identity destroys the first of the two fundamentals of life: 1. Who you are(identity), which inexorably leads to the rejection of the second: 2. Why you are(unique purpose).
Self-identification is the ‘APEX’…and the ‘FINAL’ lie of Satan---before God must intervene in righteous judgment!!
 
*Which absolutely rejects the idea that man can self-identify!!!
** The question is, where will the downward spiral end?!!?
 
 

'  In part 1, I sought to prove that the phrase “I identify as…” at its’ foundation is blasphemy…it is idolatry! Why? From the perspective of God--Who is the only Sovereign(1Tim6:15)--there is only ONE way to identify humanity: man is created in God’s Image and Likeness(Gen1:26-28).
 To the contrary however, there are two primary ways liberals apply their self-invented statement “I identify as…”:
           1.Race
           2.sex
   Allow me to begin with ‘Race’ and conclude with ‘Sex’ in a following tidbit. The emphasis in America on race as the identifying factor of humans is horrendous! It’s an abomination! From God’s perspective, it’s idolatry—because it substitutes man’s view(Jer2:13; Col2:8) for God’s Sovereign purposes! Therefore, to identify by race is not a White or Black issue, but a sin issue.
  When we look at: “I identify as…” using the ‘supposed’ colors of white, black, red, brown, and yellow that have become the norm in our world, I find it truly amazing how humanity could ever have agreed with this foolishness! Yet, this simply confirms the power that sin has on the human heart: “The heart is deceitful above all things, and desperately wicked: who can know it?” -Jer17:9
 Now…let’s examine the phrase: “I identify as…” using skin color. First, let’s simply identify how God created skin biologically.
-Biologically, human skin is the largest organ in the body.
-Biologically, God created man with skin tone, not skin color!!!
-Biologically, what is known as 'skin color' is primarily controlled by Melanin, which is a chemical in the genes that actually gives humans their skin ‘TONE’.
-Biologically, Melanin literally manifests in skin as dark and light…or, literally as differing shades of brown—NOT: white, black, red, or yellow!!
-Socially or Culturally—NOT biologically--man invented* skin colors white, black, red, and yellow.

          I know it may be shocking to your system — but I repeat—what we have called the 5 'skin colors', in reality, are differing shades of the 'tone' of brown! As Chlorophyll makes plants green, so…Melanin manifests in the human skin as brown. Therefore, the supposed skin colors of white, black, red, and yellow are a ‘Social Construct’, i.e. an invention of humans! See my footnotes on ‘race’ from Newsweek and National Geographic magazines*, which both confirm my contention that race is a ‘Social Construct’. 
  Moving forward, allow me to offer just one biological piece of evidence on skin to illustrate why humans should not use skin color to either self-identify, or to identify others.
  One incredible reason God created human skin is to protect humans from the sun. The sun’s rays can literally kill humans without Melanin. For example, the pathology of albinism is a genetic mistake that hinders the production of Melanin in humans and tragically presents huge obstacles for many millions of people all over the world.
  How do these biological facts relate to “I identify as” using skin color? First, God created mankind in His image and likeness. Therefore, to identify by anything else, or as anything else,  replaces God as the only Sovereign---substituting self for God! Remember, the Bible says, “the foolishness of God is wiser than men”(1Cor1:25), therefore the idea of ‘self-identification’ challenges the omniscience of God, the wisdom of God, and the love of God—exalting human reason above the sovereign God!
  Second, allow me to show you the absolute futility of self-identifying by race, i.e.skin color…instead of God’s image and likeness! Biologically, the body has many organs: the liver, the stomach, the kidneys, the spleen, the lungs, the intestines, the skin, etc. Although the skin is the largest of the body’s organs, every organ plays an important role in the health and well-being of the human body. What’s more, the skin is more important than the skin color because although every human has skin, not every person has the same skin color(tone)! Yet, even people with less Melanin, i.e.humans with lighter skin, are protected from the sun’s rays, just like those humans with more Melanin!
  Therefore, to identify by your skin color: “I’m black and I’m proud!” in reality, is to identify by a body organ! In other words, why choose skin color to identify yourself? Why not identify by another of the body’s organs, considering all organs are equally important! For example, “I’m a liver and I’m proud!”
 I pray that you get a big laugh at the sheer stupidity, ignorance, and foolishness of identifying by anything other than the image and likeness of God!!!!
