Is gender a fluid concept or a fixed statement? Are you born a man or a woman, or do you get to choose? In this program, guest teacher Pastor Tim Lundy looks to Scripture for answers to these questions that so many people in society are wrestling with. Hear why a Bible-based sexual ethic offers hope and genuine love from a God who made men and women in His image.

Main Points

Introduction:
  • As Christians, our approach to sex and gender must be marked by grace and truth.
  • When approaching transgender issues, we protect against the ideology while still caring about the individual. -John 10:11-12; Luke 15:4
Understanding the terms:
  • Sex: Refers to a person’s biological status and is typically categorized as male, female, or intersex.
  • Gender: The psychological, social, and cultural aspects of being male or female.
  • Gender Dysphoria: Distress some people feel when their internal sense of self doesn’t match their biological sex. (Early onset, Late / Adolescent onset, and Rapid onset gender dysphoria)
  • Transgender: An umbrella term that describes people whose gender identity or expression does not match the sex they were assigned at birth.
What does the Bible say? (Sprinkle, pages 63-77)
  • The body is essential to our image-bearing status. -Genesis 1:27
  • Male and female in Genesis 1 are categories of sex, not gender. -Genesis 1:28a
  • Adam and Eve’s bodies are viewed as sacred. -Genesis 2:21-22
  • Jesus views Genesis 1-2 as normative. -Matthew 19:4-5
  • Paul sees the body as significant for moral behavior and correlates the body to personhood. -1 Corinthians 6:19-20; Romans 6:13
  • Scripture prohibits cross-sex behavior. -Deuteronomy 22:5; 1 Corinthians 6:9-10
  • The incarnation of Christ affirms the goodness of our sexed embodiment. -Colossians 2:9
  • Sex difference probably remains after the resurrection. -Luke 20:35-36; Romans 8:11; 1 John 3:2
  • Jesus’ acceptance of the eunuch is not a pattern for understanding gender identity. -Matthew 19:12
  • Paul’s reference to neither “male or female” does not overturn sex differences. -Galatians 3:28
Summary points and next steps:
  • Biological sex and gender are linked together and important to God’s design.
  • Instead of transitioning, we should help people accept their bodies as part of their God-given identity.
  • Recognize the unique struggle for Christians who suffer with Gender Dysphoria.
  • As a church, we must strive to create a safe place where all people can find and follow Jesus.
  • Avoid defining gender according to stereotypes and embrace the diversityof expression in God’s design.
  • We must confront the lies of the current ideology because it is destroying lives.
  • We must never lose sight of the individual that Christ loves no matter how their lives have been impacted by sin.
