Justin Bieber confesses Christian faith in candid livestream
Justin Bieber’s latest album ends with the pop star delivering an almost eight-minute, spoken-word retelling of the first three chapters of the book of Genesis.
Now the 31-year-old singer has opened up about his own Christian faith on a recent livestream, a clip of which was shared on YouTube. In it, the Canadian-born heartthrob sits over fast-food takeout with some of his crew, discussing the Bible, God, and what it means to be a man.
‘Now we get to live free and rather than focus on sin, now we can focus on Jesus, the wonderful savior.’
Many of Bieber’s comments revolve around the responsibility he feels he has to others and to God and how he is doing his best not to judge life based on perceived outcomes.
“It rains on the just and the unjust,” Bieber says, going on to stress that:
Bad s**t happens to everybody, you know? Bad s**t happens to good people, good s**t happens to bad people. … Everyone’s on the same equal playing ground, and that’s hard for people to really comprehend or want to digest because I think it’s makes us feel better to be like, ‘Well, I’m better than this guy.’
He adds, “I don’t want to think I’m better than anybody ’cause you don’t know what someone’s born into.”
‘It’s the same thing’
The conversation also turns to matters of morality, with Bieber speaking about taking “ownership” as a man and avoiding the sin of adultery:
“If you even think of a woman with lust it’s the same thing as actually doing it; committing adultery or whatever,” he says, clearly referring to Christ’s Sermon on the Mount and Matthew 5:28. “It’s the same thing. So if it even just crosses your mind for one second, if you treat a man with anger or something, it’s the same as killing a man, scripture says.”

Am I worthy?
The singer seems to touch on his own mental battles when he speaks of God’s mercy.
“Someone’s probably struggling with their own self-image of like, ‘You know, am I worthy of love?’ And God says you are. You know what I mean? I don’t make the rules. But Jesus says that, and I really believe Him.”
“I believe He loved us so much,” Bieber passionately continues.
He put on skin and bones and came onto this Earth as a person, as a human. Lived a sinless life so that we don’t have to be focusing on sin because none of us can do the right thing all the time. And then He literally went to the cross, was lashed, whipped, made fun of, then he rose on the third day defeating death, Hell, and the grave. Now we get to live free and rather than focus on sin, now we can focus on Jesus, the wonderful savior. And I really think He’s the king of the world, bro. He’s the king of Hollywood. He’s the king of L.A., bro. He’s the king.
Transaction reaction
The men further discuss how and when scripture makes its way into their daily lives, with Bieber revealing that at this point in his career, he does not want to work with people for transactional purposes.
“That’s what, like, business is these days,” he says. “It’s just like, ‘I scratch your back, you scratch mine.’ And you guys, it’s not based on love.”
When asked how he learned about his faith and if it simply comes from reading the Bible, Bieber responds by saying much of it has stuck with him after his mother rewarded him for memorizing passages as a child.
“I would get a gold star. So I would just memorize it,” he recalls enthusiastically.
Bieber admits he often doesn’t know where a particular passage comes from in the Bible — just that God brings it to the front of his mind.
“The scripture says, ‘I will remind you the things that I’ve told you’ and He just reminds me,” Bieber concludes. “Because He knows what I want. He knows that I want this for other people. So I think He puts it to my brain.”

Shocking texts allegedly reveal sinister plan by teacher and her boyfriend to groom, sex traffic her student
Shocking text messages allegedly have revealed a sinister plan by a Nebraska high school teacher and her boyfriend to groom and sex traffic her 16-year-old student.
Police said 36-year-old Elizabeth Jamie Love and her boyfriend, 42-year-old Jarid “Jack” Krause, were arrested Friday.
‘It’s a huge risk. We might not find the right girl for us.’
The Phelps County Attorney’s Office charged both suspects with one count of sex trafficking of a minor (a Class IB Felony). Love also was hit with a charge of sexual grooming by a school employee (a Class IV Felony).
If convicted, Love and Krause face up to life in prison and a lifetime on the Nebraska Sex Offender Registry.
Love and Krause were booked into the Phelps County Jail and held on bonds of $250,000 cash each, police stated.
Police noted that Love had been a transition coordinator and educator in the Educational Service Unit No. 11 for several years, during which she traveled to as many as 15 schools in the south-central part of Nebraska.
The Holdrege Police Department said in a statement, “The investigation into Ms. Love and Mr. Krause began after a current high school student, whom Ms. Love was instructing through her employment as a transition coordinator and teacher in ESU-11, reported inappropriate interactions with the couple over the past few weeks.”
Police said the investigation began Oct. 14 after reports of possible sex abuse of a 16-year-old student.
Authorities said Love communicated with the teen through text messages, Facebook Messenger, and non-school email addresses.
Citing the arrest affidavit, People magazine reported that the alleged victim is a girl who told investigators she and Love “developed a close relationship, which has evolved into talking about things going on in [her] life beyond the normal scope of a speech therapist/educator.”
The alleged victim said she had worked with Love since she was in seventh grade, according to the affidavit.
Court documents said the teen told investigators she considered moving into Love’s home in Holdrege on weekdays so she could attend a school in another district.
The student said she was in Love’s car in August when Love had a phone conversation with Krause, the affidavit stated.
During the phone call, Krause said he wanted to have sex with Love, and Love later told the student she “would be willing to share” Krause, according to the arrest affidavit.
The student said she was supposed to attend the state fair with Love that day, but the conversation made her so “uncomfortable” that she called her aunt to pick her up, court documents said.
During an alleged incident on Oct. 11, Love picked up the teen from her home and took her to Love’s house, court documents said.
People magazine reported, “The student alleged that while she was there, Krause led her to an upstairs bedroom and made a request she believed was for sex.”
‘We’ll find the girl that appreciates us for what we are and provide. Someone who sees the value of our family and one that loves us both more than anything.’
The outlet added that the alleged victim declined Krause’s advances and asked to leave.
The affidavit said the student left the house and began walking home until Love picked up the teen in a car and drove the alleged victim home.
Nebraska-TV reported, “The affidavit said the girl told investigators Love apologized to her, told her not to tell anyone, and gave her $100 in $20 increments.”
When police later interviewed Love, the educator insisted the payments were not intended as “hush money” but rather a gift to help the girl purchase a new cell phone, according to court documents.
Citing text messages revealed in the affidavit, People magazine reported that Love and Krause “spoke about the student as early as April, before seemingly planning to proposition the student for sex in August” and to determine “if she’s not feeling it.”
The affidavit also said the couple discussed developing a “code phrase” to use that would “help [Love] know if she’s interested or not.”
Another text message revealed in the affidavit indicated Love told Krause she hoped the proposition “works out” and added that “if she doesn’t want to, then I’ll keep looking.”
Krause messaged Love about “[finding] our person,” according to the affidavit.
“We’ll find the girl that appreciates us for what we are and provide. Someone who sees the value of our family and one that loves us both more than anything,” Krause wrote to Love, according to court documents.
The affidavit claimed Love then asked Krause if they should “start the paperwork for foster care.”
According to court documents, Krause replied, “Do you think it’s time for that? It’s a huge risk. We might not find the right girl for us.”
The arrest affidavit said Love responded, “I know. But I also don’t have to take them all. Even though I want to. Haha.”
ESU-11 administrator John Poppert told Blaze News that Love was placed on administrative leave “as soon as the ESU learned of the allegations.”
“The ESU has cooperated fully with the Holdrege Police Department investigation,” Poppert noted. “The administration also contacted the ESU’s attorney. We will continue to work closely with law enforcement, and we thank them for their efforts in this matter.”
During the investigation, the Holdrege Police Department received assistance from the Phelps County Sheriff’s Department, Kearney Police Department, Minden Police Department, the Nebraska State Patrol, and the Nebraska Department of Justice.
Police said investigators have yet to find any evidence that Love had inappropriate interactions with other current or former students.
The investigation is ongoing.
Anyone with information about this case is urged to contact the Holdrege Police Department at 308-995-4407.
The Holdrege Police Department and the Phelps County Sheriff’s Department did not immediately respond to Blaze News’ request for comment.

House committee declares unauthorized Biden autopen pardons ‘void’ in damning new report
The House Oversight Committee released a nearly 100-page report on Tuesday deeming invalid those executive actions and pardons issued without proper authorization and with machine-generated signatures in former President Joe Biden’s name.
“Barring evidence of executive actions taken during the Biden presidency showing that President Biden indeed took a particular executive action, the Committee deems those actions taken through use of the autopen as void,” said the report.
‘Hold those who orchestrated this coup d’etat accountable.’
In hopes that real consequence might be dished out following their damning report — a report that suggests the country was effectively run in recent years by unelected Biden staffers — the Republican-led committee has also asked the Department of Justice to both review the validity of every executive action taken during the previous administration and to “determine whether legal action is necessary to ameliorate consequences of any illegitimate pardons granted, or executive actions implemented, throughout the Biden Autopen Presidency.”
The Oversight Project got the ball rolling in March by revealing that Biden’s signature on numerous executive orders, pardons, and other documents of national consequence was machine generated.
While other presidents have made extensive use of the so-called autopen, there is cause besides Biden’s mental deterioration to doubt the validity of many of the documents issued in his name.
For starters, there are reports of staffers and family members making decisions on his behalf; Biden allegedly admitted to having no memory of signing a greatly impactful order that bore an autopen signature; Biden’s signature appeared on documents while he was absent and in at least one case on vacation; and internal emails from the Justice Department show that there was a high-level understanding in the Biden administration that many of the commutations autopenned in the former president’s name were legally flawed.
Following a review of approximately 1,597 enrolled copies of documents bearing Biden’s signature — including pardon warrants and executive orders — the Oversight Project concluded in a Monday report that 846 of 958 executive orders, pardons, commutations, and proclamations were signed with autopen.

Broken down further by category, the Oversight Project indicated that of the Biden-era documents reviewed, 59.2% of the executive orders; 96.3% of the presidential proclamations; 75% of the pardons, including the pardons for Anthony Fauci, retired Gen. Mark Milley, members of the Biden clan, and former members of the House Jan. 6 select committee; and 51.8% of the commutations were signed with autopen.
Biden apparently signed all but one bill into law by hand.
“We, as a nation, operated for years without a functioning president and instead ceded executive power to a politburo of unelected bureaucrats who exercised presidential power via autopen,” the watchdog group stated. “These statistics are alarming. The time is now for the administration and Congress to hold those who orchestrated this coup d’etat accountable.”
The Oversight Project’s bombshell exposé earlier this year paved the way for additional investigations into the legitimacy of autopen-signed Biden-era documents, namely those launched by DOJ pardon attorney Ed Martin, the Trump White House Counsel, and the House Oversight Committee.
The Oversight Committee’s Tuesday report, the product of a five-month probe, indicates that Biden aides made liberal use of the autopen to carry out official actions without evidence of the former president’s approval.
The committee — echoing a finding of the Oversight Project — found, for instance, that 32 of 51 clemency warrants were signed with digital copies of Biden’s signature but without any contemporaneous paperwork linking Biden to the decisions.
Former Idaho Solicitor General Theo Wold testified during a U.S. Senate hearing in June that with regard to the clemency warrants, the “president actually has to make the decision — that cannot be delegated to a staffer or an adviser,” but there was no indication “that anyone other than staff were making these decisions.”
In addition to highlighting apparent evidence that senior Biden White House aides exercised the authority of the former president, the committee asked the DOJ to investigate three top Biden White House aides who previously refused to testify to the committee: Biden White House physician Kevin O’Connor and aides Anthony Bernal and Annie Tomasini.
Blaze News has reached out to the DOJ for comment.
Committee Chairman James Comer (R-Ky.) said in a statement obtained by CNN, “Our report reveals how key aides colluded to mislead the public and the extraordinary measures they took to sustain the appearance of presidential authority as Biden’s capacity to function independently diminished. Executive actions performed by Biden White House staff and signed by autopen are null and void.”
A Biden spokesperson stated, “This investigation into baseless claims has confirmed what has been clear from the start: President Biden made the decisions of his presidency.”
“There was no conspiracy, no cover-up, and no wrongdoing. Congressional Republicans should stop focusing on political retribution and instead work to end the government shutdown,” added the spokesperson.
Biden told news outlets in June, “I made the decisions during my presidency. I made the decisions about the pardons, executive orders, legislation, and proclamations.”
