[@VaguelyMeandering]

My Archbishop introduced me to this song...and it's been on repeat in my life ever since. LOVE LOVE LOVE IT! Thank you for such a beautiful, truth-telling song!

[@traceybfromlv1139]

@Melody Walker. I love your song. This song says Jesus was a friend to all. He showed unconditional love to all, and in so doing showed his humanity and also preached against hate. (Listening to the whole song for the third time!!)

My friend just introduced me to this song It's amazing :D Also I'm surprised there is no one spouting hate at this song in the comments from what is saw /_/ Figured someone would be mad at this song existing lol.

[@clawedmoss9030]

I have quickly been proven wrong about there being no hate

[@oliviadoll6151]

I heard you play this song with Bonnie and Taylor Sims last night. Beautiful and so, so needed! I’ll be sharing this song with everyone I know!

[@AurorahMoon]

I have a new verse for you. It's important, I think. :) Jesus was a refugee/In Pharaoh's land/to escape the tyranny/of Herod's hand./and if he had been turned away/from Egypt's warm sands/well, we couldn't be washed in the blood of the Lamb!

[@lifesimmercanada5401]

Our church plays this hymn at least once a service.

[@ultimatepatriot]

Then it’s not a church

[@calmaenlatormenta4811]

Tell us what church you go to so we can avoid it.

[@susanplunkett5193]

Love this truth.

[@calmaenlatormenta4811]

It's not true. They are deceived.

[@susanplunkett5193]

@calmaenlatormenta4811 Maybe the Jesus you know is full of bigotry and hate. The Jesus I know loves everyone. Regardless of whether they. are gay, transgender, or made mistakes in life. Jesus wants to be in our lives. He wants us to know him. No matter who we are. Jesus is not one of exclusion. He loves the addict, the homeless man on the corner, the prostitute. He is love and compassion.

[@bradhood]

Melody Walker! I am sooo glad I found you. Your music is life and you are brilliant! Shine on.

[@samoandcamilamusicayentrev9466]

I could be wrong, of course, it wouldn't be the first time, but if my memory serves Jesus died for all kinds of "abominations." Most use a shorter word like "sins." Jesus wasn't very concerned about what people wore and he certainly wouldn't care much about fashion, period. His concern was more about things that are buried deep in the human heart and psyche, buried deep because people don't want to believe there is anything "bad" about themselves. I'm a Christian and I don't always know what I believe because I don't/can't/won't retreat to the supposed safety of taking the entire Bible literally. I follow Jesus as much as I can, read what he had to say and ask a lot of questions. I'm pretty sure Jesus would prefer the company of the drag queens, queers and other supposed outcasts of society to the writers of the too-often-quoted verses of Deuteronomy. Jesus wasn't and isn't about LAW. Jesus was and is about LOVE. I think Jesus reflects every word of this song, Deuteronomy be damned.

[@timrobson8171]

Where does it say in the bible he was a drag queen

[@angelirohival6270]

It doesn’t.

[@StevenWaling]

Have you heard of metaphor? Jesue is variously described as a seed, light, a shepherd, and a door. Jesus hung around prostitutes, tax-collectors and others considered by the pearlclutching religious elite. He was thought to be mad & demon possessed. It's not much of a stretch to suppose that if Jesus was around today he would spend more time with the queers & drag queens than with today's religious elite.

[@boleynrecordsatl]

You’re missing the whole point of the song

It’s actually a spiritual song listen to the words. Not the title only.

Deuteronomy 22:5) A woman Shall not wear that which pertaineth unto a man, neither shall a man put on women's garments. For all who do so are abomination to the lord...🙏🙏 Let's not forget leviticus 18:22) 😢

[@melodywritessongs]

Dresses were menswear at that time, and heels were in the 16th century. It changes in every time and place. So you tell me what is "that which pertaineth to a man". I'll wait.

[@TrueNorthMusic]

You still haven't answered Melody's totally sensible response to your point - which is at the heart of the song, and points up how silly this whole fuss about drag queens is!

[@dogpatch75]

All humans are born ignorant... stupidity is learned. Those who spend their time quoting scripture prove it!

[@StevenWaling]

If you're quoting Toranic law I hope you're keeping all 613 of them. No shrimp, no mixed fabrics, and the rest...

[@clawedmoss9030]

I love how this person just never responded

[@einarvolsung2202]

I would say generally I have enjoyed your music. But historical Bible accounts of Jesus never mentioned Him wearing dress. In fact the Bible says men are not to dress like wemen and wemen are not to dress like men.Duet.22.5 it is an abomination.

[@davidwontshutup]

You obviously missed the message of the song. Jesus = Love & Acceptance. Not a person who discriminated against groups of people because of their identity.

[@lifesimmercanada5401]

Oh good lord. It’s a metaphor. Priests in biblical times were considered closer to God if they acknowledged their male and female spirits. They ALL worry extravagant robes and jewelry with painted faces. The Bible we know today was completely revised in the King James era to suit the political climate of that time. The water to wine wedding was between and uncle and his nephew. John the Baptist lived with a man. Ruth and Naomi were married. They turned Jesus’s wife into a whore. Mary Magdalene was the most important part of his entourage and the mother of his children. Bible study classes would teach you this.

[@realdocmontoya1616]

Most flawed bible ever

[@marrchaney9206]

We're all going to hell for mixed fabrics anyways

[@angelirohival6270]

They don’t care what the Bible says. Isn’t it obvious?

[@angelirohival6270]

Unbelievable! We need to pray this singing group to know the real Jesus. He was in the world, but not of the world. GOD IS HOLY! We as Christians live among the tares and the goats. Think about that.

[@belovernightcore957]

Jesus repeatedly refers to Himself as the Son of Man. By claiming this title, Jesus aligns Himself with the prophetic figure from Daniel's vision and emphasizes His dual nature as both human and divine. The point isn't to be above or under divinity. The point is to not judge, give love, and spread peace such as he. If you want to "know jesus" I think hugging a stranger is closer than preaching ever will be.❤ Jesus didn't care about what made people different, he cared about what we share. Such as the want to be loved and express love. Again, that might help bring you closer to god than your last sermon did.😊❤ Try to spread joy, not judgment. "Do not judge, or you too will be judged. For in the same way you judge others, you will be judged, and with the measure you use, it will be measured to you." (Mathew 7:1-2) Have a blessed day.😁

[@StevenWaling]

I suspect they know more of the real Jesus than you and your fellow pearl-clutchers do. You aren't the keepers of the pearly gates.
