Comedian B. Simone sparked a firestorm across social media on December 2 after a viral clip showed her choosing a trillion dollars over 10 minutes with Jesus.
The moment unfolded while she sat in a makeup chair, speaking with the calm conviction that has become her signature. “God left his word, He left the Bible,” she said in the clip. “There’s nothing He’s going to tell me in those 10 minutes that hasn’t already been said.”
That statement split timelines instantly. Some fans accused her of chasing wealth, while others argued that her take reflected a deeper understanding of scripture.
One user, @DionDLion, defended her logic with a reference to Luke 16:29–31. “The Bible literally says, ‘They have Moses and the prophets; let them listen to them,’” he wrote.
He added that if people ignore God’s teachings now, “even seeing someone come back from the dead wouldn’t change them.”
To him, Simone’s point held weight: a physical moment with Jesus wouldn’t fix what someone refuses to hear in the first place.
B. Simone Sparks Outrage Over “Trillion Dollars Or 10 Mins With Jesus” Remarks
Critics pushed back with equal force. @planite_ invoked the temptation of Christ, writing, “Wild how the devil offered Jesus the whole world and He still said no… but folks folding over imaginary trillions.”
The user noted Solomon’s request for wisdom over riches, using it to argue that Simone’s choice symbolized a modern obsession with money.
Others didn’t hold back their disdain. “Sounds like something someone who needs Jesus would say,” wrote @Magiks.
Another viewer, @borgirqing, claimed, “She chose money over eternal salvation. God bless her heart.”
@MrJeromeTrammel added, “When he tells her she can’t enter heaven because of his finances and he doesn’t have room for her, then what?”
Some responses took a more nuanced approach. @_SaintDAN said the backlash overshadowed a point that, in their view, “logically reasoning” still made sense. And @ShannonRawls turned the question upside down:
“I wonder how many people I can bless with $10 trillion dollars… using the word of Jesus that he’s already taught me?”
Rawls argued that selecting a private moment with Jesus instead of helping others would be “EXTREMELY SELFISH.” They added that Jesus “would be mighty upset” if someone chose ego over service.
The clip continues driving debate about faith, money, and what spiritual devotion looks like in a culture obsessed with going viral.
