Pastor Anderson has made his church's extremist positions publicly known in recent times. He is especially well-known for praying for the death and eternal torment of people he hates (including but not limited to Barack Obama, Democrats, and gays). In early 2011, Anderson mentioned Justin Bieber in a sermon, where he preached against Justin and thinks Justin is being used as a tool to make men more effeminate, Anderson received backlash by local media outlets, but a [https://www.billboard.com/articles/news/6867345/la-reid-remembers-justin-bieber-beautiful Billboard article in 2016] did add some slight clarification to Anderson's statements. In December 2014, he stated in a sermon that a 'cure' for AIDS would be for governments all across the world to execute LGBT persons, and used quotes from the Book of Leviticus to justify his stance. Such an absurd, vile and ridiculous proposition resulted in Anderson being dubbed the "[[Hitler]] Pastor" by Kyle Kulinski of Secular Talk Radio. In a May 2015 YouTube broadcast, Anderson argued that [[the Holocaust|the Holocaust]] never took place. Holocaust survivor Rabbi Leo Abrami has accused Anderson of lying to him in order to have him appear in his [[Anti-Semitism|anti-Semitic]] "documentary", ''Marching to Zion'', that he co-produced. Anderson prayed for the death of Caitlyn Jenner in 2015 during a sermon and made a series of transphobic remarks. | Pastor Anderson has made his church's extremist positions publicly known in recent times.

Anderson also believes that all modern Bible versions have been corrupted by Satanic New World Order elites and that the only legitimate Bible is the King James version. | ||

Steven Anderson claims good news about the 2016 Orlando nightclub shooting is that there are 50 fewer pedophiles around. Anderson has no explanation why he thinks the victims were all pedophiles, he just insists they were. 'Shooting up' a gay bar was according to Anderson wrong but he claims a 'righteous government' should have tried the victims in court and had them executed according to 'God's perfect law' (Leviticus 20:13). Because of the publicity of his [[Homophobia|homophobic]] rantings, several online fundraising accounts for his church were shut down and Anderson reacted by claiming he was "[https://rationalwiki.org/wiki/Persecution_complex being persecuted]". | Steven Anderson claims good news about the 2016 Orlando nightclub shooting is that there are 50 fewer pedophiles around.
