Nah, I give a shit. My family members in Nashville and Knoxville aren't in the fire area, but are affected. Plus I have white people in my family.

Your Gospel is of a social nature that is not Biblically based. Your gospel has been corrupted by a racist, capitalist western lens. I don't have time to unpack it now, but will dig into this later (I'm on my cell in the movies with the grandkid). Everything we read in the Bible regarding the resur...
