4 Reasons Why the Bible Does Not Support Transgenderism | Clearly Reformed
To put the same truth in a different way, the Bible insists that there is a given-ness to the body. If there is one fundamental error in transgender ideology, it is the lie that says our material bodies are malleable, while our immaterial feelings and sense of identity are sacrosanct.

September 8, 2016 - In short, the Bible teaches that God made us male or female, and no matter our own feelings or confusion, we should act in accordance with the biological reality of God’s good design. Transgenderism falls short of the glory of God and is not the way to walk in obedience to Christ.

Transgenderism, Transsexuality, and Gender Identity | Assemblies of God (USA)
Recent decades have witnessed the steady erosion of biblical moral norms governing sexual behavior. As these norms regarding, among others, nonmarital sexual intercourse, homosexual activity, marital infidelity, procreation, and divorce have given way in the broader culture to more permissive understandings, new, more fundamental challenges have emerged to the very notion of biological complementarianism itself. This “transgender moment,” as it has been called—in which a person can select a gender identity at variance with their biological sex—requires a biblical and theological appraisal.

r/Christianity on Reddit: Are their any actual “anti-trans” passages in the bible?
November 28, 2023 -
Im not a christian and am not well versed in the bible, but I keep hearing people say being trans is a sin. Every argument ive heard has been wildly hypocritical or presumes things that arent necessarily true.
The big one is saying god doesnt make mistakes, and that requires you to believe being trans was a mistake, instead of it being a challenge god put upon you or smthn along those lines.
The other one i hear is about “destroying the body god gave you,” but people dont seem to really think about that argument as a whole, since you are saying any surgery like lasik is a sin too, since you are changing the body you are born with. Sex change operations are some of the most advanced operations out there, couldnt it be argued the surgeons who can do it are a blessing from god?
Not here to debate random periphery issues about transgenderism, just if there is a logically consistent biblical argument for it being bad.

What did Christ say on this matter? Christ did give one commandment. To love others as he has loved you. But as far as love others except those people or love being conditional. Christ was pretty silent on this matter. One passage you may find interesting is 1st John 4:20-21.

No. The bible is completely silent on the issue. It has absolutely nothing to say about trans people that it doesn't just say about everybody, like love them.
