CONFUSING GENDER DISTINCTION
Just as Satan deceive Adam and eve to sin against God, Satan is still deceiving human beings to do what is not right in the sight of God. He want men to change the natural way god have created men and women. While bring confusion and evil to the society.
The following are some of the confusing gender distinction:
- Satan make some women want to be like men through dressing and Behaviour.
- Satan makes some men want to be like women like wearing of earrings, plaiting their hair.
- Practice of homosexuality. That is men marrying men and female marrying female.
The effects of the confusing gender distinction leads to

So, Christians should avoid any action or attitude that can confuse gender distinction. Men and women should be contented with how God have crested them and give all glory to God.

- Some say men are important then women
