Yes, we are ONE gender in THIS life but have been the other gender in PAST lives. So our true

The caterpillar wraps itself in a cocoon and emerges as a butterfly. Your ego
must go through a similar conversion
Since all of us have fallen from grace, we must come back 2 God and bring
someone who has also fallen from grace, our brother or sister
