But what I would ask about your support of the King James version, only position, how do you support this? Given that first, the underlying Greek manuscript on which the King James version is based, which is called the TextUs Receptus. It was produced by Erasmus, a Roman Catholic monk. And I know people in the message really don't like the Roman [00:01:00] Catholic church. | But what I would ask about your support of the King James version, only position, how do you support this?

The | The Textus Receptus was based on six, quite late incomplete Greek manuscripts. Where there were holes in the final manuscripts, Erasmus back-filled the Textus Receptus by translating parts of the Latin Vulgate into Greek. | ||
Since the Textus... that's hard to say really fast. Since the Textus Receptus was completed by Erasmus in 1516, there have been over 5,800 Greek manuscripts that have been discovered, some dating back to the early second century. But the Textus Receptus ignores them. So how do you support your stance with respect to the King James version and the Textus Receptus. | Since the Textus... that's hard to say really fast.

I buy men's pants. If I were women's pants, then I would be cross-dressing. But a woman wearing women's pants is not. Paul tells us that women should dress modestly. I've seen women in the message wearing dresses that were [00:16:00] immodest, and I've seen non-message women wearing pants that were modest. | I buy men's pants.

If you have a problem with the latter, I honestly don't think you understand the new covenant. I don't think you understand the gospel. The second issue you brought up, which is completely unrelated, is that of trans genderism. Now I take it from your question that you'd like me to condemn people who are transgender, but honestly that is not what I'm called to as a Christian. | If you have a problem with the latter, I honestly don't think you understand the new covenant.

Our responsibility as Christians is not to condemn sinners. In fact, I read in John 3:17 that God did not send his son into the world to condemn the world, but to save the world through him. To the women caught in the midst of adultery, Jesus declared, neither do I condemn you, go now and leave your life of sin. | Our responsibility as Christians is not to condemn sinners.
