BRI Ethics Committee Releases
Statements on Transgenderism
October 2014
In
recent months the Ethics Committee of the Biblical Research Institute has
received a number of inquiries about the pertinent topic of transgenderism. As
transgender persons accept Jesus and join the Seventh-day Adventist church,
some crucial questions emerge, two of which are addressed in the statements
below. The first deals with whether a transgender person should get married.
The second addresses how the Church and its members may relate to sex-change
surgery. After close reflection and study of the Bible, the committee formulated
two positions to help the Church deal with these issues in a biblical way.
