Justin Bieber is one of the most popular musicians in the world, and he has an enormous online following that includes 111 Instagram followers. This week, he surprised many by using his platform to preach about the word of God to his followers.

In the secular entertainment world, it’s rare to see an entertainer actually speak out to praise Christianity. That’s why it came as a welcome surprise when Bieber encouraged his followers to look into Christianity if they are going through things like mental health issues, problems at home, and struggles in relationships.

“Fight for what you love and who you love don’t let fear and anxiety win..god has not given us a spirit of fear but of power love and of a sound mind!” Bieber wrote. “I haven’t believed the truth about myself I haven’t believed I am loved I haven’t believed I am forgiven it’s a hard thing for me to wrap my head around.”

The singer went on to say that though he has been having some mental health issues lately, he is still drawing strength from God and Jesus Christ.

“Jesus has given me freedom and the pursuit of getting to know his character is never ending,” Bieber wrote. “Gods character never changes he is the same yesterday now and forever. He is always good!”
