i was wondering what ur feelings on trans/nonbinary ppl are? (i’m not trying to start an argument or anything i just know there are a lot of religious transphobes so i wanted to make sure)
hey there! ^-^ i actually identified as an NB Agender person for almost 10 years, so the struggle with identity and gender dysphoria is a personal one to me. while i’ve come to believe that the feelings of misalignment are the real issue and not the “wrong body” itself, a struggle is a struggle. trans and NB folks are just as valued and loved by the Lord as every other person (with their own struggles) He’s made. He loves each one and died for each one, and wants to bring healing and security to all.
it reminds me of Matthew chpt 9, when the religious people of Jesus’s day were complaining that He hung out with the social rejects of their society. He told them, “Healthy people don’t need a doctor- sick people do. (…) For I have come to call not those that think they are righteous, but those who know they are sinners.” (v. 12-13) Jesus has a special place in His heart for those who are struggling and reach out to Him.
here’s a lil 6 min testimony about my experience :)
