Billionaire tech entrepreneur and the world’s richest man, Elon Musk, has sparked fresh conversations online after expressing agreement with the teachings of Jesus.
The comment came in response to a post on X (formerly Twitter), where a user suggested that someone should evangelise Musk and lead him to Christ.
How the exchange happened
An X user, @creation247, wrote:
“Someone needs to evangelize Elon Musk. Who will lead him to Christ?”
Musk replied succinctly:
“I agree with the teachings of Jesus.”
His response quickly gained traction, drawing thousands of reactions, reposts, and comments from users across the platform.
Mixed reactions online
The remark triggered a wide range of responses.
Some users expressed scepticism, suggesting the interaction may have been staged or exaggerated.
Others welcomed Musk’s statement, highlighting what they described as the universal appeal of Christian ethical principles, particularly the Golden Rule.
One user commented that the world would improve significantly if more people lived by the moral teachings of Jesus, while another interpreted Musk’s response as openness to faith rather than a formal declaration of religious affiliation.
Context around Musk’s faith
Musk has previously described himself in various ways when discussing religion, often taking a philosophical or exploratory stance rather than aligning strictly with a particular denomination.
His latest statement does not constitute a formal religious conversion but indicates agreement with the ethical and moral teachings attributed to Jesus.
As with many of Musk’s social media interactions, the brief exchange has reignited broader conversations online about faith, influence, and public figures’ personal beliefs.
