God is nonviolent, so violent atonement theories are wrong. #ChristianNonviolence

Jesus didn’t die for your sins God isn't violent, so substitutionary atonement theories are wrong

Let's give Christianity a nonviolent interpretation of Jesus's life and work. #NonviolentChristianity

Trump shares video with racist imagery of Barack and Michelle Obama in late-night posting spree In clip amplifying false claim that Trump won 2020 election, the Obamas’ faces are superimposed on bodies of apes

God hates racism.
