Why it worked

The video likely resonated due to its strong emotional appeal and direct address of a controversial topic within religious communities, using personal reflection and biblical examples to make its point.

Summary

She emphasizes that change is a process and that judging others is not the way to help them find faith.

Structure

1Criticism of judging the deceased based on lifestyle
2Emphasis on offering Jesus and the gospel
3Personal reflection on the process of change and legalism

I think it's highly insensitive that y'all are already on this app implying that Bri went to hell because of the lifestyle she was living. her passing shouldn't have been an opportunity for y'all to preach condemnation & hell. This is the opportunity to give people Jesus. stop encouraging people to change before you give them the message of salvation, before you give them the gospel. Jesus literally says he is the one who does the cleansing. We cannot cleanse ourselves. And the way some of y'all videos are coming off giving you can't have Jesus if you don't change first. I'm in no way, shape, or form saying I agree with the lifestyle that Bri promoted or the song she created. I'm just saying y'all are acting so far removed as if you were just snatched out of the club (and sin) and never went back. It's a process. People go through. Sanctification. And y'all did not know that girl. Y'all also were not there when she had whatever conversation she had with the Lord before her soul went on into eternity. And again, I'm not posting this or saying this to support any lifestyles that are opposite of holy. But what I am saying is, as believers, we just need to do better about giving people the gospel and giving people Jesus before we implore them to change. When I first came to Christ, I started changing my lifestyle and all these things about myself. It was because I was overly jealous and I was operating in legalism. I was so worried about how my walk looked that I started performing. And that pulled me away from intimacy and relation with Jesus. In one season, I found myself backsliding into all those things cuz I did not allow the Holy Spirit to change my heart and purify my mind, renew my mind, renew my spirit and change the way that I saw these things. So yes, I ended up going back to them. Just don't think it's right that y'all are telling people they need to change before they come to Christ. y'all not even giving the situation long enough to the girl just passed away and y'all are already on here saying she's going to hell because all she promoted was clubs, drinking and all this stuff. Like, did we forget about the thief on the cross *this is not a license to sin or wait until your last breath to give your life to Christ* who literally believed in Jesus and his last few seconds of his life and ended up going to heaven all because he believed he didn't live for Christ.. He literally went on the cross as a thief and received Christ through his belief, through faith, before he died. So, yeah, I just said it all to say y'all don't know, y'all don't know she in hell. you can assume all day. Please stop using her death as a reason to condemn other people to hell and to tell other people this is Why you shouldn't be living this way. And point them to the cross. Point them to the person who can pull them out of that lifestyle and who can help them change their ways. That's the only way they gonna change. Cause at this point, I'm a little convinced y'all wanna see people in hell. Like, that's not a good place to be. Y'all messages are not landing the way that y'all think they are, so. Yeah. Um. Pray and let your post be Holy Spirit LED. Please do not come up here condemning people, judging people. I promise you, that's not what's gonna save them. Jesus Christ is gonna. Is who's gonna save them anyways.. Have a good day. God bless all y'all.
