I’m referring precisely to the context you posted. Here’s your context:

“Neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor abusers of themselves with mankind,
Nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners, shall inherit the kingdom of God.”


No mention of “transgender” persons.

So I’m asking you again… can a transgender person be truly Christian? Yes or no Joseph.
Josephw?

No one is proposing to engage in "burning" transgender people; such a hyperbolic strawman does not make for a reasonable discussion.

However, if sexual activity by transgender people is classed as "fornication" and is, therefore, in Christian terms categorized as "sinful" behaviour, then I don't see why Jesus would have approved of it while he was alive.
If you don't understand the question, that's fine but don't bore us by thinking that you do.

What about the content of the reference I posted?

You're deflecting.

Perhaps I should let you make up my mind for me?
One might think you're afraid to let God influence your thinking.
FMF's condescension aside, answer my question.

Do you think Jesus would approve of witch-burning?

You are dodging. I have no difficulty understanding "the question".

No one is talking about "burning" anyone. if sexual activity by transgender people is classed as "fornication" and is, to a Christian, "sinful" behaviour, then I don't see why Jesus would have approved of it while he was alive.

Just because Jesus intervened in the stoning of the woman who was accused of adultery doesn't mean that adultery is not a "sinful". One surely cannot willfully live a life as an adulterer and "be truly Christian" at the same time, right? One surely cannot practice witchcraft and "be truly Christian" at the same time, regardless of whether Jesus would have approved of burning witches.

Stop boring me to death and let Joseph answer the question, if you don't mind.

Again, the question is, as aimed at Joseph, not FMF, Do you think Jesus would approve of witch-burning?

THIRD time asking.
