​Sam Rohrer is the president of the American Pastors Network and the Pennsylvania Pastors Network. Sam served for 18 years as a state representative in Pennsylvania. In his role with the American Pastors Network he encourages pastors to boldly preach biblical truth, especially on issues affecting our current society. Sam has recently drafted an action plan, ‘Transgender Identity-Not Accepting God’s Design’.

Sam is amazed at the speed with which our moral free-fall is taking place, not just in America, but around the world. We’re progressing at quantum speed, relative not only to the downward moral spiral but even the forward movement of what he considers to be biblical prophecy worldwide.

Jim noted that America has become a major exporter of immorality through things like LGBT liaisons, ambassadors, as well as funds that have been channeled into promoting the transgender agenda worldwide.

Sam described how the current administration has been leveraging nations for about the past 6 or 7 years as it pertains to federal funds. Leaders of other nations have been told that if they don’t put same-sex marriage, homosexuality and abortion into their constitutions, the U.S. will withhold foreign aid.

In the end, Sam believes the U.S. has been the largest promoter of evil, anti-God, immoral actions of literally any nation in the history of the world. This is in opposition to our founders who operated in the fear of God. They understood that God is our creator, which we see in the beginning words of our Declaration of Independence and they understood that God would be our judge and the determiner of the rightness of our actions. That last point is how they ended the Declaration of Independence where they appealed to the Great Judge of the universe to hear the rectitude (the righteousness) of our cause.

Now, unless a school decides to fight it, from Kindergarten on, children are being taught that gender is fluid and can change. According to Sam, children are the target in this because the intent is to take the innocence of our children and make them calloused and to sear their consciences toward the differences between male and female.

Jim also pointed to a new Disney/Pixar movie that has a transgender Stingray character who transitions to become ‘Sting Rhonda’. Sam believes this is an arrogant attempt to redefine what God has defined for mankind.

In an attempt to equip people with a response, Sam has developed a free online ‘tool kit’ available at the website listed below. Once you’re on the site, click on the headline that says, ‘Free Resources to Help You Understand the Transgender Identity Debate’. That is where you can access a ‘white paper’. This is a 10 page document that answers the basic arguments about the transgender issue. This online ‘tool kit’ also includes a sample ‘letter to the editor’, one for legislators, one for school board members, a church bulletin insert and a list of action steps that pastors can take.
