Lemuel: I am Lemuel Gonzalez, repentant sinner, and along with Amity Armstrong, your heavenly host, I invite you to find a place in the pew for today’s painless Sunday School lesson. Without Works.

Amity: Jen Hamilton, a North Carolina labor and delivery nurse, author, and social media personality, has come under criticism for a social media post. In it she reads aloud from the New Testament, Matthew Chapter 25, and in an attempt to contrast the teachings and character of Jesus Christ with the beliefs of Trump and Maga. While she reads, banners appear of the screen announcing the counterpoint atrocity committed by the Trump administration.

Lemuel: The original video has had more than 8 million views. Hamilton says that she did not intend to make a political statement, though at this point, any defense of faith values is a political statement.

Amity: Jen’s livelihood is being threatened. Complaints have been filed with the Board of Nursing to take her license away. She is accused of misusing the scripture, but she is not. In fact she is applying the scripture in the most appropriate way. We covered this same scriptural message just last month. 

Lemuel: We were discussing the genuine message of Christianity and the MAGA appropriation of the faith. Miss Amity read the words herself.
