You cannot call yourself a Christian and be pro-abortion or trans. Sorry. You can't pick and choose those things from the bible that you like.
The Bible has no clear stance on either abortion or transgenderism, unlike homosexuality which is clearly outlawed. The bible makes no statement for when life begins or how gender is defined.
Homosexuality is *not* clearly outlawed, though.
The issues in the verses cited to disparage gay people have to do with prostitution, sexual sacrifices, and pedos…not one of them references a consenting, monogamous relationship. The Bible didn't even refer to homosexuality until 1946, and Biblical scholars disagree as to the accuracy of that translated word.
Leviticus 18:22: "You shall not lie with a male as with a woman; it is an abomination".
Leviticus 20:13: "If a man lies with a male as with a woman, both of them have committed an abomination; they shall be put to death...".
Romans 1:26-27: Mentions women exchanging natural relations for unnatural ones and men committing shameful acts with other men.
1 Corinthians 6:9-10: Lists "men who practice homosexuality" (or "sodomites/perverts" in some translations) among those who will not inherit the kingdom of God.
1 Timothy 1:9-10: Mentions those who are "immoral" and "sodomites".
Genesis 1:27-28 & 2:18-24: God creates humanity as male and female, establishing the first marriage between Adam and Eve.
Matthew 19:4-6 & Mark 10:6-9: Jesus quotes Genesis to define marriage specifically as a heterosexual, "one-flesh" union.
Ephesians 5:31: The Apostle Paul reaffirms the Genesis 2:24 definition.
1 Corinthians 7:2-5: Describes marital sexual intimacy as between a husband and wife.
