Ah I see you're reading the LSB version.

Jesus said to him, “If you wish to be complete, go make sure that you tell the poor that they need to pull themselves up by their bootstraps and stop having avocado toast. Being poor is a state of mind and they need to #hussle more.”

That's from the SSJ (Supply Side Jesus) version.

Revisiting this thread, it’s been about 15 years since I knew what was trendy in Christendom, and your comment got me curious. Have they put out a new translation that’s even more in line with capitalism than the NAS(NewAmerican Standard)?

I’ll have to look into it
