The sportswoman, believed to be based in the United States, recorded the exchange she had with a man who adamantly argued that God does not love everyone
In the clip, the unnamed woman begins recording the midway exchange.
The man in the background can be heard saying, “I can’t play both games.” I can’t ask God to save my life multiple times and get back to the thing that caused my death in the first place, does that make sense?
The woman replies emphatically “of course” before the man asks her name.
But she says, “No, no, it made me very uncomfortable actually. I don’t know why you needed to come and do that.
He replies: ‘I’m really sorry. I didn’t have that desire, God has. God loves you severely but God is jealous.’
The woman, who seems to be getting impatient with the man, cuts in: “God loves everyone.
But it triggers the man into a heated speech as he declares, “No, he doesn’t. It’s not true… He hates the wicked, his bible says so… It’s all through the bible.’
Exasperated, the woman states that she just “came here to practice,” but undeterred by her protests, he replies, “He doesn’t like people who hate him, does he? He can not…
She told him directly that she felt “very uncomfortable”, but he was undeterred and repeatedly asked her to read the Bible.

“He can’t want them to come into his kingdom. God does not love everyone. Read your Bible. He does not like sinners.
The woman states that she has read the Bible well before he offers to show her the passages he is referring to.
The debate rumbles but the clip cuts out before viewers hear the last exchanges between the duo.
The origins of the video remain unclear, but it has been shared on several other social media platforms in recent days.
