If he had been a democrat, it would not have been mentioned. Christian? Put it right up front!

He was apparently very up front about the label himself. Assume he really did believe and then fell into sin.
Lambesis has stated that he is Christian.[4][5] During an August 2010 radio interview on The Full Armor of God Broadcast, Lambesis said "I can only really write about what I'm passionate about in life, so naturally my faith, my belief in the teachings of Jesus and His resurrection come across in our lyrics."[6] After Lambesis was arrested for solicitation of murder, the prosecution claimed that Lambesis told his wife in an email that he no longer believes in God.[7] While on bail Lambesis posted on his personal blog that after his incarceration he has been "re-evaluating topics", but it is unclear what those topics are and if they relate to his Christianity.[8] The blog post was taken down shortly after to avoid misinterpretation of the content.

Lambesis married Meggan Murphy in June 2004.[9] They separated in August 2012.[9] Meggan Murphy Lambesis filed papers in San Diego Superior Court in September 2012 seeking a dissolution of their marriage, according to an online court database.[10] In divorce papers, Meggan stated that Lambesis was obsessed with bodybuilding and was spending money irresponsibly. She later discovered he was carrying on an affair.[11] They have two daughters and a son all adopted from Ethiopia.[12][13]

When not on tour, Lambesis lived in Del Mar, California.[14][15] Meggan and the children live in Encinitas.[9][16]

Lambesis is a bodybuilder[5][17][18] and started his own YouTube fitness channel.[19]

Lambesis is heavily tattooed. His tattoos include a "rocking Jesus," and cyborg Arnold Schwarzenegger,[20] a Koi fish swimming upstream, which represents a quest for meaning and fulfillment, Hebrew writing, a cross, Jesus Christ in clouds, and his largest (completely covering his back), a samurai fighting a tiger, which represents the battle between reason and instinct.[21]

Lambesis grew up in North County. Lambesis was voted "Most Like Jesus" by classmates when he attended Santa Fe Christian School in Solana Beach as a teen.[22] He majored in Religious Studies[9][23] at Liberty University, a private Christian college that offers classes online.[18]
