Russell Brand Says People in Hollywood 'Terrified of Being Exposed' for Their Sins

"...There's all of this darkness that's gonna be revealed."

The 49-year-old celebrity made the declaration in a video shared to X.

Opening up his Bible to 1 Timothy 1:15-16, Brand explained why Christianity appealed to him.

In the passage, the Apostle Paul wrote (ESV):

"The saying is trustworthy and deserving of full acceptance, that Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners, of whom I am the foremost. But I received mercy for this reason, that in me, as the foremost, Jesus Christ might display His perfect patience as an example to those who were to believe in Him for eternal life."

"People are terrified of being exposed," the actor said. "Look at the stuff that's going on in Hollywood at the moment. There's all of this darkness that's gonna be revealed."

He continued, "Well, those of us that publicly are known to have sinned, are known to have lived a life away from Him, lived a life looking for the stimulants that the world offers you, lures you with. ... Those of us who live with open transparency can authentically accept that we are flawed and fallen and that is the way that we will know Christ, through our brokenness."

Brand went on to say one of the benefits of his newfound faith in Christ is that he no longer has to hide any of his past mistakes because he has been redeemed by the Gospel message.

"You don't have to be pretending to be something that you're not," he said. "You don't have to be concealing anything about yourself, because what you are is beautiful. I wish I could've known that when I was small. I'm so glad I know it now and I hope you know it as well..." Subscribe for free to Breaking Christian News here
