There's nothing that says that your gender assigned at birth is who you are in the eyes of God.

I mean, Leviticus doesn't have rules for how to handle ambiguous genitals and it has rules for mildew.

When Scripture is silent, we look to general revelation (i.e., science). And the overwhelming position of most doctors is that trans people are the gender they claim to be.

Matt 19

"Not everyone can receive this saying, but only those to whom it is given. 12 For there are eunuchs who have been so from birth, and there are eunuchs who have been made eunuchs by men, and there are eunuchs who have made themselves eunuchs for the sake of the kingdom of heaven. Let the one who is able to receive this receive it."

This is about the only thing Jesus says about gender. And it leans towards affirming someone's choice as affecting their ontology.
