Jamie Foxx Says ‘Jesus Is the Foundation’
By Movieguide® Staff
Actor Jamie Foxx recently referenced his Baptist faith in an interview when fellow Hollywood star, Joseph Gordon-Levitt asked if he was a vegan.
“I am Baptist, I have been Baptist my whole life,” Foxx said. “To me Jesus is the foundation. Nothing against other vegans, I don’t know where they go as far as heaven and hell is concerned but I know where I’m going as far as heaven is concerned.”
The SPIDER-MAN: NO WAY HOME star then proceeded to recite the books of the Old Testament from memory, noting that their purpose is to point to Jesus.
“It’s about Jesus,” he said.
While Foxx was partly joking in his response to Gordon-Levitt, Foxx clearly has knowledge of the Bible.
