19. One of the single most overlooked pieces of Scripture when it comes to Vance, Miller, Noem...and Trump

Truly I tell you, whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers and sisters of mine, you did for me


When the people I named in the subject line go off full-bore on their immigrant / refugee hate, it's a solid guarantee that they are using Christianity and the Bible for a prop.

It's also in there as

"if you give a cup of cold water in my name..."


Short version, for anyone who does (or does not) want to identify as "Christian," it's right there between the covers of that book. NO ONE gets to pick and choose who they show kindness to. Or they CAN do that, and forfeit their right to call themselves a "Christian."
