After President Trump posed with the Bible for a bizarre photo op outside St. John's church in D.C., James Corden invites his father Malcolm - who spent much of his life as a Christian book salesman - to share some handy tips on how to hold the Bible a little less awkwardly.

Sadly, the Bible is often misquoted in an attempt to bend it to a person’s evil agenda. The passage Malcom read in Psalm 37 is refreshingly spot on and was read with sincerity. Thank you Corden family! May the Bible bring clarity and comfort to all who are humble enough to read it.❤️ 🙏

[@davidthedeaf]

If people today had been all in good churches and knew the Bible well, then they would have not believed that Trump was the Christian, Bible-lover that he claimed to be. There is a few places that outed him, and other fakes self-proclaimed Christ followers. That is another reason to read it, but best if with someone who is an expert on the Bible to clarify and answer questions when you do. For example you will know a real Christian if they are meek, humble, slow to anger, quick to forgive, they are their brother’s keeper, they love their enemies and their neighbors, they do not cast stones, they give to God in secret all they have without drawing any attention of mankind, and much more is discussed and even listed how to recognize the real deal. If only Americans were actually reading their Bibles and understood what they were reading, they would have never chosen this orange fake.

I'm not a religious person, but hearing James' dad read that passage brought tears to my eyes. It pains me to see anyone, our president included, boasting religion and practicing NONE of it. Despite all the evil I see, I believe there is good in this world and hope it reaches the people that need it right now. Silence does not bring change so speak your truth. Stand up for what is right and do not ignore what is wrong. BLACK LIVES MATTER. If you have ever been made to feel like you are less than someone else based on your race, appearance, beliefs, sexuality, or anything, I stand with you. You are not alone. I use to think my voice didn't matter and that I couldn't change anything. I don't want to live that way anymore because silence puts power into the wrong hands.

Alyssa Chapa I would like to add to that list, ageism. It never occurred to me when I was younger. Now I’m feeling trivialize in ways that have surprised me. The wisdom shown by James’s dad, made me feel like there is hope. We all have a lot to learn from people that are different from us.

“If within the city a man comes upon a maiden who is betrothed, and has relations with her, you shall bring them both out of the gate of the city and there stone them to death: the girl because she did not cry out for help though she was in the city, and the man because he violated his neighbors wife.” (Deuteronomy 22:23-24) “However, you may purchase male or female slaves from among the foreigners who live among you. You may also purchase the children of such resident foreigners, including those who have been born in your land. You may treat them as your property, passing them on to your children as a permanent inheritance. You may treat your slaves like this, but the people of Israel, your relatives, must never be treated this way.” (Leviticus 25:44-46) Let’s be honest, the Bible is not the place is not the place to look for ethics or morality. Trump doesn’t know it (because he clearly hasn’t read the Bible), but his principles actually align with much Biblical morality (or rather, lack thereof). As a matter of fact, it’s precisely when his morality aligns with that of the Bible that we (rightly) condemn him for his lack of ethics.

I'm not religious, I am spiritual, I have read the bible, old testament 3 times new testament 4 times. I have a favorite story. It's the parable Jesus told about the Good Samaritan. It's never too personal to share.

[@notAshildr]

That's a good one. Because it basically says that being religious doesn't equal acting good. Where the Pharisians didn't help the guy, the Samaritan, a total stranger, did. It basically teaches you to not judge someone by their religion, but by their acts. I also really enjoy the thing about Job, but for totally different reasons.

[@jayfredrickson8632]

Many people don't realize the full meaning of the parable. Samaritans were despised by the Jews of the time. Jesus' point was that if even a Samaritan could be good or kind , you (his audience ) have no excuse not to be .

Most of the new testament is written by Paul or at the very least commissioned by him.
