I think he would have been compassionate and then he would have said to "man up".  He was a Jew under the Law.

this is one of my favorite areas when people moth off saying it is a sin in the eyes of god, I start off with do you believe god created all people and things?  them = yes

2do you believe god walks amongst us ? them= yes

3 since god created all of us including gay and trans then you must also believe he loves us too   them = ?????

4it is not god who said we are sinners ,it is the ancient learned ones who pushed their own ideas of what was sin ,in gods name

this generally shuts them up ,for the hard core I nicely ask them  since as shakespeare one said " me thinks you protest too much"  is it possible you are afraid you might be one of us??

Welcome to the site and thanks for sharing. I noticed you have posted in a number of areas, that's great.

I hate to be a jerk but I have to correct your quote. "Me thinks the lady doth protest too much." Bill was no slouch when it came to transgender situations whether within plays or just the fact that all the actors were AMAB.

Just like He treats everyone else!

And of course, He knows!

we are made this way for his Glory and kingdom.

He loves us as much as anyother, we are his most loved creation.

He would never tell us to man up, but have compassion and understanding and no doubt some truths and parables :)

I'm sure he does know all about it.  But if I had him here in physical form to speak with literally; I believe that he would be very kind, trying to encourage and embolden me, and I think that he would likely be angry that people have caused me to be so ashamed and self-hating.  It's a conversation I very much look forward to having some day!

Jesus would MIND HIS OWN BUSINESS
Usually ppl who mind their own business are loving, not hurting others and accepting.

I guess he would understand why I did all the things I did.

To be under the Torah, You first have to be outside of Torah to bring yourself under the the curses of Torah. I dislike it when someone says Yehoshua/Joshua was a Torah breaker.

Someone just asked me this last week! My answer was:

He knows already. He no doubt has empathy for my struggles and being misaligned much of my life. He wants me to love others even those that oppress and hurt me.

God is Love.

I think Jesus would hug me and comfort me in my time of need. I doubt he would be judgemental. As tumblr says, I like canon Jesus not fanon Jesus. [emoji41]

My mouth crooked up at this question: Churchianity has condemned me as an abomination for loving trans women. If I had let them get to me, I would have a great deal of self hatred. On the street, homophobic folks have thrown words and objects at me/us for just being alive. I would always choose to be me/us over being a hating phobic person.
The Jesus I know knows-of course. Now it is up to me to live like Jesus/God really is in  my corner. Thanks for asking the question.

I sincerely doubt he would start throwing stones at me like many of his current day, so-called, followers.
