Russell Brand says he is "taking the plunge" this Sunday and will be baptized a Christian 🙏
Actor, comedian, philosopher, and all-around-interesting dude Russell Brand has been publicly moving towards professing his faith in Christ for some time now.
I admire his desire to change for the better.
IMO ---- he is just attention whoring.
(he IS an attention whore)
Possible, or coming to Christ? God can sort it out
The talk-about-it to do-it ratio is too high.
If he really wanted to do it ------ he would just do it and let us find out about it later.
Perhaps you are not really aware of Brand's journey? And his activities in recent years?
If he shares his journey with a few million in his audience, going through or sharing his transformation together with them, how is that anything other than consistent?
He has def. gone through a transformation, and that's not just his Christian / faith journey. Starting out definitely leftish-centrist in his political outlook, he has awakened like many and gone through a process, very publicly, of recognizing Trump, recognizing the evil of the Cabal, and so many other key points of the Great Awakening.
Taking the plunge is a big deal, so why should he suddenly cut his entire following and audience out of the picture for this event/milestone?
In my case, I come from a deep faith background, but was raised in a family that essentially became exactly what would have been Brand's traditional base: leftist, anti or non-religious, wokish and wary of the foibles on the right: corporatism, hawkish warmongering, etc.
I know how amazing it has been watching Brand wake up and reach an audience that DJT or almost everyone on 'the right' or conservative' could never reach. The fact that he has undergone personal transformation both externally in his awareness and internally (spiritually) is very significant from my view, knowing how hard it is to reach those in the camp he originally had has his audience.
FWIW, I think your take is extremely ungenerous.
