Florida evangelist Whitney Lynn uses most of her flights as an opportunity to share her faith, a trend that was featured in a recent Washington Post article. On Thursday, she said, her sermon got her kicked off a San Diego-bound jet before it even took off from Orlando International Airport. She documented the removal in a series of videos she posted on social media, one of which had racked up 3 million views on Instagram by Friday afternoon.

Whitney is another a la carte Christian grifter.

Matthew 6:1 “Be careful not to practice your righteousness in front of others to be seen by them. If you do, you will have no reward from your Father in heaven."

Yeah but it’s Matt. 5:10 that they’re all about, “Blessed are they which are persecuted for righteousness' sake for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.”

Except they’re not actually persecuted, they’re in a Christian-majority country ruled by an overtly Christian government, so they have to manufacture their own persecution in order to trick God into letting them into heaven.
