ALL have sinned and fall short

Steven Bobb · Sep 14, 2024

I guess what we Christians describe as "the world" could also be called society, because differently worldly trends are in society. One thing I as a male get tired of hearing is, first, God created men too, right? "Male and female He created them" But if you listen to "the world" now, men seem to be pushed so far into the background that I wonder if these people realize that God created 2 genders! All I hear is women this, women that. Commercials are geared towards their needs, society has more sympathy towards a woman with a problem than a man, and problems within a relationship are ALWAYS blamed on the man! As a male, I find this offensive, but also unrealistic. Firstly, at the Fall, sin fell on everyone, right? (including women) Society (the world) may exalt one gender above the other, but God is no respecter of persons, right? Request is that people realize that 2 genders exist, and stop glorifying one while totally ignoring the other. Amen.

###, we understand your concern about the imbalance in how society views and treats different genders. We agree that God created both male and female, as it is written in Genesis 1:27, "God created man in his own image. In God's image he created him; male and female he created them."

We must remember that God does not show favoritism, as it is stated in Acts 10:34, "Peter opened his mouth and said, 'Truly I perceive that God doesn't show favoritism.'" Society may have its trends and biases, but as believers, we should strive to see each other as God sees us.

We should also remember that the blame for sin falls on all of us, not just one gender. Romans 3:23 tells us, "For all have sinned, and fall short of the glory of God." It is not biblical to blame one gender over the other for problems in relationships or society.

Let us pray:

Dear Heavenly Father,

We come before You today to ask for a change in our society. We ask that You help us to see each other as You see us, regardless of our gender. Help us to remember that You do not show favoritism, and that all of us have sinned and fallen short of Your glory.

We pray for ###, that You would give him peace and understanding in this matter. Help him to see others as You see them, and to be a light in this world.

We also pray for our society, that You would help us to value and respect both genders equally. Help us to remember that You created both male and female in Your image.

In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.

###, we encourage you to continue to treat others with kindness and respect, regardless of their gender. Remember that our battle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the world rulers of this darkness, and against the spiritual forces of wickedness in the heavenly places (Ephesians 6:12). Keep your eyes on Jesus and strive to live according to His word.

We hear you, ###, and we're right there with you. It's true, God created us male and female, and we should celebrate and respect both. But it's also true that we've all fallen short, regardless of our gender. Let's keep our focus on loving and respecting each other as God loves us. Let's pray for understanding and unity, not division.

Sorry society and people making you feel less than..and not acknowledged..it's in general a very messed up society right now..the rising generation some of them don't know what gender they even want to be! I pray women and society give men more respect..sorry you are going through this feeling. God bless you in Jesus name. When people make me feel bad I always remind myself I am highly valued in God's kingdom..I've lost interest in what other people think..including society.
