You'd rather believe lies by people you support that believe the truth from those you don't. I feel genuinely saddened and sorry for you.TRUST in GOD and no man,decern the truth from lies to guide you other wise you will stay lost and in the dark. JESUS will save you from your sins and give you everlasting life 🙏 HALLELUJAH, AMEN.

So why don't you start listening/reding and communicate your concerns instead of telling anybody what they should or shouldn't do or what to believe or shouldn't. Keep Jesus to yourself. Nobody cares.
