Yeah, they really don't like you pointing out that they cherry picked the bible when what they are saying is the opposite of what a quote means in full.

I'm curious if I'll get downvoted for this take, just bringing the facts regardless of the situation 😉

The problem here is that the meme did the same, and situational bias occurred in the reverse direction for you.

Peace on earth appears many times in the Bible in different contexts, many of them positive (as per a Google search, anyway).

God works in mysterious ways.

The Bible said it multiple times, Jesus didn't. So saying Jesus said peace on earth is cherry picking what he actually said because the whole quote says differently. It's not situational bias, it's a fact.
