Oh you poor unfortunate soul
@MelonieMac! At this point, the Bible deserves a restraining order from you.
You hitched your wagon to
@TheQuartering, ignored EVERY warning sign, and thought proximity to the grift came with immunity. It didnβt.
You wanted to preach about faith while standing shoulder-to-shoulder with someone surrounded by public controversy. That's not exactly the βbe not unequally yokedβ energy of (2 Corinthians 6:14).
Jesus had something to say about βyou will know them by their fruitsβ (Matthew 7:16). Eventually Mel, the Jer fruit basket starts looking suspicious.
Then thereβs your βNew Translationβ Bible situation, as if you've uncovered the lost Gospel according to TikTok.
See, I grew up with Catholic biblical tradition since birth, so when I hear your ultra-modern translations, my Catholic brain immediately goes: βOhβ¦ so she lives according to the Special Ed Short Bus Bible."
(James 1:22)βBe doers of the word, and not hearers only.β In other words Mel: Live the book before turning it into content.
Melonie, please stop weaponizing Bible verses as content. Faith isn't a tank top, choker, punk rock shirt, a camera angle, and a verse spoken in your lil baby voice.
One thing your "New Translation Bible" doesn't have is commentary or context... You aren't βmisunderstood.β You weren't βsilenced.β You backed the wrong horse and found out it was already dead.
(Proverbs 16:18)βPride goes before destruction, and a haughty spirit before a fall.β
Sweetie... The only thing being resurrected is your ability to ignore red flags. (Matthew 7:16) is quietly asks: βWhat exactly are you doing here?β
There is no encore. There is no redemption. There is no bonus chapter.
YOU LOSE. Good day, ma'am.
