DEBATE: LGBTQ+ in the Church? | Andrew Wilson Vs Matthew J. Distefano

What was said

"If it was the case that they believed that God literally made two people and plopped them on the earth first, yes, yes, I would say yes, that he was wrong about that."

When challenged on whether Jesus held false beliefs about Genesis, Matthew DeStefano stated that if Jesus literally believed God created Adam and Eve as historical figures, then Jesus was mistaken. He characterized the Genesis account as 'mythology' rather than history, directly contradicting Jesus's own references to creation as recorded in the Gospels.
