Did Men In The Bible Wear Skirts

By Dr. G. Reckart, Pastor
Acts 2:38 Church At Jesus House

The modern charismatic movement is attempting to blur the lines and remove gender roles in Christian clothing practices. You can go to any charismatic church and find homosexuals, lesbians, and "straight" people all in a mix of fellowship where women take on masculinity and men take on femininity. There is very little gender specific display of what God intended between the male and the female.

Modern charismatic liberals have a transgender agenda to destroy the lines in Christian clothing between males and females. They have a plot to destroy gender specific clothing practices to make homosexual and lesbianism acceptable in their midst. This is due to the rampant and growing trend to accept Sodomism via the first step of cross-dressing or being a transvestite.  Among these religious groups there is a growing number of ministers who accept transgender styles and challenge holiness and holiness standards accusing them of being Phariseeism. They heap on a good dose of calling holiness legalism and bondage.  What is really behind this Sodomite spirit of transgender rebellion? Why is the sin and culture associated with Sodom and Gomorrah now becoming more and more acceptable?  Why are some departing from the Apostolic Oneness Churches to join with liberal transgender trinitarian ones?  The answer is quite simple:

It is the endtime apostasy, the great falling away! The doctrine of transgender clothing styles will sweep many through the gates of hell.

I receive complaint after complaint from transgender liberals claiming holiness standards are a sin because they are man made.  I have received an abundance of hate emails informing me how demonic I am because I believe in holiness gender specific clothing for men, women, and children. And I am especially attacked very brutally because I speak out against transgender women wearing pants and transgender men wearing skirts.  They speak to me in great judgmental and angry words. They are not the least loving or kind. They mock, scoff, ridicule, and slander. It is their way of boasting they will do what they want and dare any man to condemn their transgender choices of clothing.

I have received more than enough emails claiming it is men who should be wearing skirts and not women because men wearing skirts is in the Bible. And I have likewise been assailed by these liberal Sodomites claiming it is ok for women to wear pants.  This is no wonder to me seeing their women largely have haircuts like a man and many of their men and boys have long hair like a woman. Transgenderism is more than pants and skirts. It began a long time ago when women started wanting to look like men and men wanted to look like a woman. It showed up in their hair styles first. Since acceptance of this perversion by liberal charismatics, transgenderism has been accepted incrementally ever since.  Did in fact men wear skirts in the Bible like the ones worn by females for many hundreds of years?

Let me deal with the text one by one to show that the charismatic liberals who are advancing homosexual and transgender conduct is false. Jesus warned of an endtime Sodomite spirit and we are seeing it among the liberal transgender religious groups. They claim they are free from Phariseeism as they exhibit their transgender behavior.  Did Jesus really rebuke the Pharisees because they were not transgender enough? Did he really rebuke them for wearing holiness apparel? Or did he rebuke them for traditions of men that had nothing to do with Sodomite transgenderism?

A new transgender Sodomite falsehood is now making its rounds through charismatic churches.  They are claiming the "other sheep" that Jesus must bring and make one fold in John 10:16 are homosexuals and lesbians. They are claiming these sheep are the transgender dressing males and females. They claim also the text in Matthew 10:33: "whosoever shall deny me before men, him will I also deny before my Father which is in heaven," is Jesus speaking of being rejected as a homosexual and anyone who denies a homosexual as a Christian will be denied by God when they get to heaven.

It is this kind of perversion that follows the transgender spirit of Sodom that is sweeping through the charismatic ranks. Would we then expect them to present the truth on the words "skirt or skirts" as found in the Bible in passages where men are mentioned?  No, they will pervert these passages. Let us look at the first one the transgender charismatics pervert:

"A man shall not take his father's wife, nor discover his father's skirt" Deuteronomy 22:30.

Does this text say a man is wearing a skirt? Compare: "his father's wife" to "his father's skirt."

Does this verse say a man shall not discover or remove a skirt from his father?

Now I wonder how these perverters can miss this. This text does not say a man is wearing a skirt. It is saying his wife is wearing the skirt. It is saying if a man takes his father's wife in a sexual act, he must uncover the wife by discovering what is under her skirt to do it.  It is also understood here, that Jewish men purchased the garments of their wives (Exo 21:20). To uncover the wife and displace her skirt to have sexual relations is in fact discovering his father's skirt.  There is nothing in this text that says a man was wearing a skirt or dress in the manner Christian women have been wearing them for centuries. But the transgender charismatics pervert this text to say a man who discover's his father's skirt is actually taking clothes off his father and not that of his wife.

What of the text in  1Samuel 24:4: "Then David arose, and cut off the skirt of Saul's robe privily."

Does this passage say Saul was wearing a skirt? How can these transgender charismatic perverters read this verse and claim Saul was wearing a skirt?

The word "skirt" here in the Hebrew is "knaph" Strong's #3671. It means "edge or extremity."  It literally refers to the portion of the hem of a garment.  For those who are honest of heart and not given to transgender perversions, check also "knaph" found in Numbers 13:38 translated "borders." Check Deuteronomy 4:17 translated "fringes upon the four corners. " Check Job 37:3 and 38:13 "ends." And check Isaiah 11:12 and 24:16 translated "uttermost part."

Back to Saul: Did Saul wear a skirt like women have worn for centuries? No! What is it Saul wore as he slept? He wore a man's robe. He sure didn't wear a woman's robe. If he had on a woman's robe he was in violation of Deuteronomy 22:5. There is a difference between a man's robe and a woman's robe. The transgender charismatics may not have the intelligence to figure this out, but those of us who are the elect can do it easily.

There was no such thing as transgender clothing where there was no male-female gender specific distinctions.  Deuteronomy 22:5 lets us know there are gender specific clothes for men and women. In the text we are considering, it clearly says David cut off the skirt of Saul's robe.  His robe was not called a skirt. A part of his robe was called a skirt. What part? Why the "edge, extremity, hem." For anyone to claim otherwise is a lie. But then transgender charismatics pastors are known for being incredible liars and deceivers. They approve of transvestism and cross-dressing by members of their churches claiming Saul had on a skirt. This is perversion.  

There are other passages of Scripture that uses "skirt" to mean a hem or an edge. The following is a text that shows an example:

"It is like the precious ointment upon the head, that ran down upon the beard, even Aaron's beard: that went down to the skirts of his garments" (Psalms 133:2).

As Aaron stood in all his Priest garments (Exodus 28:4), the oil dripped from his head to the hem of his ephod, to the hem of his robe, to the hem of his broidered coat.

When a charismatic transgender reprobate pastor, pushing his agenda of perversion, claims Aaron wore a skirt as a priest, he is lying through his open sepulchre. Yes, his mouth is a graveyard. He is a spiritual murderer. He is spiritually killing people and sending souls to hell. God will send judgment on these kinds of perverted preachers.

Now I know there are backsliders who have lost their minds as well as their hearts when they cast holiness down and chased after the transgender charismatic churches where there is no holiness standard at all.  They will seek to justify themselves in their falling away and make accusations against Pastors and Ministers. These are cankers and their evil will work more and more like a cancer. They will deceive everyone but the elect. When I see men and women leaving holiness and going to transgender charismatic churches, I know they have chosen folly. They are deceivers and they have been deceived.

Did men wear skirts in the Bible?

No they did not.

And women did not wear pants either.

Pants or breeches were designed by God for men to wear (Exodus 28:42). Since they are and were distinctly for men, it is an abomination for any woman to put them on no matter what style they make them for acceptance and trend.

Any woman who wears pants is an abomination to God.

A reprobate wrote and said: "if women's pants were men's garments how come men do not go shopping in the women's department?"

This is a typical charismatic transgender snake tongue.

I happened to live when there were no pants in the women's department.  I happened to live when women went into the men's department and bought their pants, their levi's, their bib-overalls, and even dress pants.  Anyone who is old enough will remember that when women started working in the factories is when pants became famous.  It was then garment manufactures saw hugh profits possible for making pants and putting them in the women's department.  Since that time there have many different styles, designs, trends, colors, and so forth.  Watch the perversion taking place before our eyes. There were no skirts or dresses for men in the men's department.  But, since the homosexual craze has come out of the closet, they are bringing out women's skirts off the hangers. Now we will see them open new shelves and racks in the men's department as they shift women's clothes from the women's department to the men's department.  And these charismatic perverting Sodomites will claim they are men's clothes because they are in the men's department.  Go ahead you reprobate pastors and ministers you will be among those destroyed at the coming of Jesus with fire.

As a final remark about this department store perversion: is it true, even possible, that by moving men's pants 30 feet into the women's department changes them from an abomination for women to something holy? This is exactly what these reprobates are saying when they claim relocating men's pants 30 feel sanctifies them for women and they are no longer an abomination to God. I will call this the 30 feet doctrine of the charismatic reprobates. The 30 foot leap into hell....

Since when is holiness determined by profit-making garment companies? Since when is Church doctrine established by department stores? Since when can men and women overturn Deuteronomy 22:5 by just renaming a garment and calling a man's garment a woman's garment or calling a woman's garment a man's garment? You transgender reprobates have set evil for good and good for evil.  You have perverted and destroyed. You think you are being free of Phariseeism, when you are transferring from Jerusalem to Sodom. Are you that stupid?  Do you really believe the Pharisees were rebuked because of holiness?  You know they were not, so stop the perversions or you are going to burn in the lake of fire for ever for your lies. All liars will be cast into the lake of fire where their father the devil will await them.

No transgender charismatic church or pastor will change the truth.

Women wearing pants is part of the women's lib movement (ERA)--where they shout and dance "yeah, Eve Ruined Adam").  And men soon to be wearing skirts and dresses will be part of the transgender homosexual movement.

I guess with many of these pastors already wearing earrings and women's panties, putting on a skirt would not be seen as evil. Is this why they all have a limp handshake and effeminate ways?

Thank Jesus for endtime holiness men and women who know they are male and female and they have no desire to wear transgender homosexual or lesbian clothing styles.

To The Backslider: I can see from the perverted transgender doctrine of your pastor joker, which you have accepted, boasting you want to be with a group with more freedom: well, you are the joker's fool, you were deceived so easily. Maybe God blinded your mind after you swindled all that money!  

To the novice perverts and jokers, grow up! You think of yourselves to highly. You judge and brag to much.  Your condemnations are like blank paper. Your jealousy and hate is eating you up. Why not be like your pastors and write NOTHING for the people of God?

To the other repobates who do not want to hear it:  

Yes, I have written more Apostolic Bible studies and placed them on the internet than any Apostolic man living now in the world.

Yes, more people throughout the world are reading these Bible studies than are reading your blogs.

Yes, your pastors do not compare in Spiritual achievement with me.  

Boasting? Why yes!  And is this boasting a sin? Why no! (2Cor 11:10, 17 ).

Your complaints are because you have a do-little pastor, and you do not want his do-little ways to be a shame unto him or you.

And I shall do more and more for Jesus Kingdom here at Jesus House because I want to. Because I plan to. Because I will not use people like you who talk and do nothing; who are totally unprofitable unto the Jesus Kingdom. I will use and train men who love Truth and will not compromise with falsehood and perversion.

I want to write about Truth and do more for true Apostolic Truth theoughout the world than any man living. That has been my zeal for 30 years. IN te coming years, nations of the world will have Truths denied to them by traditions of men and backslid organizations. 

I want to do more because a man who receives greater things must do more. It is evident that a man who does NOTHING has received NOTHING. That is you and your pastors because both of you are doing NOTHING!  

To whom little is given (you and your pastors), little is required: but to whom much is given (me and some other men of God), much is required.  

Some day God will raise up other men who will do exploits and they will do even greater than I.  But you will never be one of them! I said so...  

I know what it takes to be a great man of God and you are not the material or the quality. You and your pastors couldn't even have written this small rebuke of transgender charismatic perverters.  :)

I want to take this time to thank you Brothers and Sisters who stand by me. Your emails and financial support makes you a partner with me. You are the greatest Apostolic people in the world. There are none greater than you. I said so... You are the ones who helped make me the successful man of God that I am. I have not achieved this on my own. You have been there to encourage me, to support me, to travel with me, to worship with me, cry with me, feed the hungry with me, and take Light To The Nations. You are the greatest people on the earth and I thank you!
