Can transgender people be truly Christian?

@fmf said
If sexual activity by transgender people is classed as "fornication" and is, therefore, in Christian terms categorized as "sinful" behaviour, then I don't see why Jesus would have approved of it while he was alive.

I heard you the first 5000 times. Didn't make sense the first time either.

Stop engaging me in bad faith.

It makes complete sense.

I didn't ask you, either.

Your "whataboutism" has precious little to do with my question to josephw.

Your mention of "burning witches" on a thread about transgender followers of Jesus was about as whataboutist as whataboutism gets.

Bull. If you had any intellectual curiosity at all, instead of a desire to shut me down, you might have let that idea coalesce into a discussion. But no, all you wanted was a spotlight.

You seem upset and quite triggered over my OP Suzianne.

Was that its only purpose?

If so, it was a big fail.

If you meant it to foment discussion, also a big fail. Your partner has shut down any meaningful discussion.

The purpose of my OP was not to upset you, what an odd ly paranoid person you are. Having said that you clearly are upset by it.

The only “fail” in the thread is your scornful dodging of questions.

What an odd twist on what I actually said.

I responded directly to exactly what you said Susan.

Stop gaslighting.

Do you think Jesus would approve of witch-burning?

No.

What's the definition of a true Christian?

One that is born again.
The only kind of Christian there is.

Jesus said “you shall know them by their fruit”.

He never said “you shall know them by them being born again.

Those who are born again are born of the Spirit. They are Spirit beings. They are not fleshly beings. Jesus explained:

Jesus answered, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born of water and of the Spirit, he cannot enter into the kingdom of God. That which is born of the flesh is flesh; and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit. Marvel not that I said unto thee, Ye must be born again. The wind bloweth where it listeth, and thou hearest the sound thereof, but canst not tell whence it cometh, and whither it goeth: so is every one that is born of the Spirit. (John 3:5-8 KJV)

They move like the wind and you cannot see or hear them move. I know nobody on this planet who can do that. Therefore according to you there are no Christians. All the professed Christians are flesh and blood people who cannot move llike the wind.

So yet again your church doctrine is just baloney.

Unless you are referring to born of water which just means water baptism whish is just nothing really.

You just don't get it.

The question was asked, "what's the definition of a true Christian?"

Now you want to twist a simple answer into a discussion about "fruit".

Anyone can mimic fruit, but an aspect of fruit is what one confesses about Jesus with their mouth, and apparently you have issues with doing that.

You're good at passing wind evidently.
