Focus on the Family released a really cute commercial with kids quoting John 3:16.
What these kids don’t realize is that John 3:16 is probably the worst verse in the entire bible.
It tells people that Jesus is such a demonic asshole that he’s willing to send people — who commit the thought crime of disbelief — to a place of eternal torture.
Decry me for taking the message out of context?
Go ahead. I know this text much better than you may ever know.
Seriously.
Is this really the idea you want to share with people to make your ideas look good?
I don’t only think so. I know so.
John 3:16 is an abomination to natural thought. And promoting it is not nearly as good as Focus on the Family thought when they produced this cute video.
Don’t forget to donate your $5 when you’re finished watching the cuteness.
