God’s View on Gender Transformation: Upholding Divine Design

Beloved brothers and sisters in Christ, as we continue to examine the biblical teachings on gender transformation, let us remember that our ultimate authority is the Word of God. We must approach this topic with humility and reverence, understanding that God’s design is perfect and unchanging.

The Bible is clear that God created us male and female, and this is part of His divine plan. In Genesis 2:24, we read, “Therefore a man shall leave his father and his mother and be joined to his wife, and they shall become one flesh.” This is an unequivocal declaration that God created us with distinct genders and intended for us to remain in those genders. Furthermore, when a man and woman get married, they become one flesh, symbolizing the unity and complementarity of the two genders.

The Bible’s Stance Against Gender Transformation

The Bible speaks explicitly against gender transformation and similar practices. In Romans 1:24-27, we read, “Therefore God gave them up in the lusts of their hearts to impurity, to the dishonoring of their bodies among themselves… For this reason God gave them up to dishonorable passions. For their women exchanged natural relations for those that are contrary to nature; and the men likewise gave up natural relations with women and were consumed with passion for one another.” This passage is a clear statement that God does not approve of actions that go against the natural order He established, including gender transformation.

We also find guidance in 1 Corinthians 11:14-15, “Does not nature itself teach you that if a man wears long hair it is a disgrace for him, but if a woman has long hair, it is her glory? For her hair is given to her for a covering.” This serves as a reminder that we should strive to live according to our God-given gender. In Leviticus 18:22, it says, “You shall not lie with a male as with a woman; it is an abomination.” This scripture is unambiguous: God does not approve of gender and sexual transformations.

Living by Our God-Given Gender

The Bible clearly states that God created us male and female and intended for us to remain in those genders. It reminds us to be content with who God has created us to be, regardless of our struggles or preferences. These struggles are often a result of the thoughts that we allow to enter our minds. Proverbs 4:23 instructs us, “Above all else, guard your heart, for everything you do flows from it.” This verse emphasizes the importance of protecting our minds and hearts from negative influences.

Who feeds the mind gender-based thoughts and all other negative thoughts? It is Satan, the deceiver. But with Jesus at the center of our lives, we can overcome the devil’s trickery. We must reject any attempts to change our gender and instead strive to live by God’s perfect plan for us.

In conclusion, God hates gender transformation because it goes against His divine design and the natural order He established. As Christians, we must accept how God created us and live according to our God-given gender identity. The Bible provides clear guidance on this matter, and we are called to uphold these teachings in our lives.

Let us remember that our bodies are temples of the Holy Spirit (1 Corinthians 6:19-20), and we must honor God with our bodies. Rejecting gender transformation and embracing our true identities is a way to glorify God and live according to His will. May we strive to live in a manner that honors God’s design and shows the world the beauty of His creation. Amen.
