Earlier in the day I cranked my jeep up and it would not crank unless is pushed the gas pedal I figured it was due to me being just about out of gas. Jeep drove fine, put gas in drove home, later drove to another destination jeep sat for 2 hours in the cold weather, cranked just fine when I left and was accelerating just fine. I stopped at a light and when I pulled off the jeep would not accelerate unless I gave it a bunch of gas jeep slowly moved, had to stop again the jeep barely move. Pulled in the parking lot jeep will barely go in drive or reverse. Is this a fuel pump issue or transmission. I checked transmission fluid, fluid is red, full and does not smell burnt.

When was the last time you changed the fuel filter? Could you have bad gas in your tank? Check the fuel pressure to make sure you are getting enough gas to your engine. You may also have a bad fuel pump. Is your check engine light on? If so, then you need to get your vehicle scanned to see what it is trying to tell you.
