Bieber’s Church a CULT?! Pastor Finally Speaks Out!

Justin Bieber’s longtime pastor is defending his church’s purpose.

In the midst of whispers concerning the friendship between the “What Do You Mean” artist and Judah Smith, the religious figurehead from Churchome admitted that he had lately been questioned regarding the gossip swirling around his church community.

In a video shared on his Instagram account on May 2nd, he mentioned an unexpected encounter: “Stepping out of my vehicle, I found myself engulfed by photographers – something I hadn’t experienced before.” He added, “Suddenly, a kind woman whipped out her camera and asked, ‘So, is this a cult or not?’ I was taken aback, as I wasn’t anticipating that question.

Judah, who joked that the encounter was “not good PR,” went on to make light of the accusation.

He went on to say that if we’re considered a cult, we must be the most poorly-run one ever. After all, our gatherings are only monthly, and I’ve even stopped attending every Wednesday. Clearly, there’s room for improvement.

For more than a decade now, Judah and Justin, aged 31, have been bonded together. This strong friendship began when they were introduced by none other than pop star Justin Bieber’s mother, Pattie Mallette. Their relationship blossomed as they discovered their mutual commitment to their faith was the common thread between them.

Back in 2013, I shared with TopMob News that Justin and I frequently exchange Scripture passages, and we keep in touch. I believe that these sacred texts provide both of us with great solace and understanding.

Lately, the artist known as “Holy” has disclosed that he relies on spiritual advice to navigate rumors and conjecture regarding his private life, particularly his union with spouse Hailey Bieber.

In a post on Instagram Stories dated April 24th, he expressed that people out here often mistreat him as if he were worthless, but he recalled that he himself is imperfect and has been forgiven by God. This realization helps him to avoid feeling superior to those who are unkind and harmful, because when he’s truly honest with himself, he too can be cruel and hurtful.

Certainly, the Grammy-winning artist, known for sharing an 8-month-old son named Jack Blues Bieber with Hailey, stated that he makes a point to recall his own imperfections when evaluating the behavior of others.

He added, “Frankly, I feel inclined to say that it’s wrong to gossip and spread false information about someone online. However, there are actions of mine that I’m not entirely proud of.

As an ardent follower, I’ve been keeping tabs on Justin’s updates. A representative for the star shared with TopMob News back in April that such unfounded speculations and incorrect assumptions about his well-being will persist. However, they won’t sway him from staying steadfast on his chosen path.

The saying goes: A couple who prays together, maintains their bond. For me, this conference couldn’t have come at a better moment; I truly believe God is so incredible and reliable, guiding us to find the words that provide exactly what we need during challenging times. This is what Hailey wrote alongside her photo with her husband.

Amazing views for the gram. The sunset is also pretty nice!
