GA22 AGENDA: Human Identity and Sexuality

VI. Resolution Concerning Human Identity and Sexuality

No Church of God minister shall permit any employee of any church or institution of the church, under their direct authority, to knowingly participate in using or verbally affirming the use of a self-selected gender identity that is incongruent with the individual’s biological sex. Ministers are prohibited and must prohibit their employees from encouraging or affirming people and especially people within their care to identify with their sexual temptation, their unbiblical sexual attraction, or a self-selected gender or gender pronoun, which is incongruent with their biological sex.

Engagement in this behavior is grounds for disciplinary action. Failure of a credentialed minister to prohibit their credentialed or non-credentialed employees of denominationally affiliated institutions or churches, under their authority, from engaging in this behavior is grounds for disciplinary action.
