    You own three Bibles. Haven't opened one in two weeks. Meanwhile, a man in North Korea is in a labor camp for hiding one page of Matthew under his floorboards. Same book. Different cost. 🧵

  2. #2

    Open your Bible. Not for a quiet time Instagram post. Not for a devotional that makes you feel warm. Open it to find out what it actually says about your marriage, your money, your manhood. Most of you won't like it.

  3. #3

    Read your Bible. Every word your pastor skips. Every verse that makes you uncomfortable. Every command you've been taught to "contextualize" into irrelevance. Read the parts that wreck your comfortable faith.

  4. #4

    Study your Bible. Find out what it says about wives submitting. About masculine authority. About persecution being normal, not exceptional. Then watch how fast your church calls you extreme.

  5. #5

    Live your Bible. Not the sanitized version. The one that got Deborah Samuel burned alive. The one that costs something. I documented 47 who did. BLOOD AND BANDWIDTH - Link in bio. Pre-orders close October 10th.
