I just got done learning ALL about Illuminati and i decided to never listen to the popular artists that are into illuminati and i'm going to just listen to christian stuff. Now as I'm watching this video and look at the sign he throws up 1:28 Why would he randomly throw up a peace sign? I think it means something more then that... you'd have to learn about illuminati to understand... I AM SHOCKED.
@Gdampier88 Different videos blended together, that was not the video to this track. And when a celebrity/musician throws up the peace sign that doesn't always mean that, I can see the devil horns, but he didn't throw up that.
@Gdampier88 Not all popular artists are bad... Most of the popular artists realised they did something wrong so they turn against the illuminati. (b.o.b - eminem)
GOD works in mysterious ways... GOD's mysterious code in that word and name =26 G7 O15 D4 using just simple alphanumerics there is no coincidence that there is that many letters in the English alphabet and letters make words we should trust GOD's word that name can be assured don't forget oh yeah JESUS code =74 the first and last numbers of GOD something is 100% for sure 2nd verse 'Good News' by The Th0ught Pr0v0ker . @shoutlifedotcom/theth0ughtpr0v0ker
amazing song...i too have a problem with insecurities... a lot of time i find myself being caught up in my looks or clothes even my car. this song hits it on the head, what a blessing.
Having a relationship with Jesus is the most important thing in life....the rest just comes with the relationship. Sometimes we get hung up on doing good deeds, and who is doin what.
Some people are so extreme that if you aren't praising god you're "wrong." Aren't there other ways to honor God besides christian songs like this? I feel like encouraging good, or raising awareness to bad things that happen without directly praising God can be just as good as directly praising him. Lecrae should keep doin his thing but some of his fans are too extreme and ignorant...
another thing is this as Christians if we are not giving God our all which
He deserves so many times over we can never pay God back for all He has done and we should give him our all we all make mistakes get back up again ask for forgiveness and continue to walk like we know how
IM A CHRISITAN RAPPER ALSO!! ..CHECK ME OUT..MY BEST ONE IS PROBABLY PAINFUL SIN... TELL ME WHAT YA THINK!! ..GOD BLESS YOU ALL! JESUS ROCKS!! WOOT ~~ WOOT!!
nice harmony between beat and lyrics. Song has ACTUAL meaning. I can't stand hip hop and r&b for what its become, but this song shows that you can use anything to minister to people
I love this guy, he's awesome, and the only christian rapper I know of. I listen to a lot of other rap/hip hop, just for the beat, but the words are just crap! These songs actually mean something. :]
I don't usually like Christian music, I heard this song and I was jammin' to it then I Googled it and found out it was Christian hip-hop and I was like "WTF". I wasn't really paying attention to the words until I listened to it for a second time. Not a fan of Christian music but I still like the song.
But to you guys that are listening to this kind of music make sure you don't listen to Lil wayne & Nicki Minaj or Drake. This worldy music isn't good for us Christians. ITS HARDD. I was there, but at the end of the day you gain nothing from the musicc. With this kind of music you're encouraged to do something and want to change. It feels so good to listen to this kind of musicc:) . God Blesss. Jus wanted to encourage someone out there
@smvr Although this music is uplifting and it does encourage us to want to do "better" i put that in quotes because even our most righteous works are covered in sin but people can listen to whatever music as long as they dont go out and do whatever it is the artist is saying.
@freakeclipse Paul said all is lawful, but not all is edifying. If lil wayne is worth your anointing and staying focused on Christ, then fine, but if hes not then listenin to non christian music is worthless and can be harmful
@smvr i agree! I have a friend who can't let go off those secular music which mostly implies......uh...yeah...worldy stuffs....tsk...I'm always praying that my friend would change...though I learned this song through that person...
@shockingreality I have a great verse for that. Philippians 4:8 :) "Finally, brothers, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable—if anything is excellent or praiseworthy—think about such things." How many Secular songs pass that test?
@smvr i understand what your saying but if you actually listne to what drakes saying in his new cd its actually not that bad, he talks about some reall issues in life but lil wayne is not that positive i agree with you there lol.
@cliffe98 I get what you and smvr are saying, but being a future rapper myself, I've learned a lot from listening to rappers like Big Pun and Eminem, among others. Now aside from select songs, most of Eminem's material isn't pointing me towards God, and same with the others'. But see, I just listen to them cause of their lyrical abilities, not cause I agree with, or condone what they rap about (again aside from select songs). But I also listen to Lecrae and Trip Lee to bring me back on track.
@cliffe98 Well, I guess saying "back on track" was a wrong choice of words. But what I'm saying is, I can learn a lot from non-Christian rappers, and use that knowledge to make my Christian raps better. I don't think we should only limit ourselves to only Christian music, or we'll miss out on a lot. At the same time however, we should have a healthy mix of the 2; listening to non-Christian music for listening pleasure, and Christian music for inspiration and to keep us on the path for God.
@SpikedJerex light doesnt mix with darkness, and bro im not being preachy just real talk. we cant live on both sides of the fence. We have to pick a side. It looks like you've picked the right side, but you cant jump over to otherside just for a bit... then hop back over to the "right track" sure the worldly rappers have talent but if they are not glorifying God and praising Him then what they are spitting is worthless. It doesnt matter if there is all the skill in the world. You want to rap
@SpikedJerex rap better then ask God to give you the words, show you the beats, listen for His flow. He can teach you more than any other rapper can. If you are influenced by worldly rappers and their style then your rhymes and your raps will be as well. It becomes tainted with them. Again darkness and light dont mix. And even if what worldly rappers say isnt bad, it may even be good... what spirit are they of? what motive do they have for that song? Do all things unto God, that should be your m
He isn't saying that he's taking the stuff the artists rap about, he's taking technique. And i guarantee you Lecrae uses the same techniques as the top secular rappers. Don't forget that the man that is considered the greatest rapper ever, Tupac, probably influenced Lecrae at some point in his life.
LUKE 16:13 "No servant can serve two masters. Either he will hate the one and love the other, or he will be devoted to the one and despise the other."
This applies to music as well. You cannot have something from both worlds. Look at it this way, if i had to bake muffins for you and every now and then I put mud into the batch and you see me putting mud into it, will you eat the good muffins as well as the muffins with the mud?
You cannot use what you learn from those in the world in your Christian life. It is the same as offering GOD unclean sacrifices and worship/praise.
Leviticus 22:20 Do not bring anything with a defect, because it will not be accepted on your behalf.
We gain nothing from listening to the music of those in the world. Rappers like Eminem, Jay Z, Kanye West dissaprove Christianity and have said that they have sold their souls to the devil. What can you possibly gain from them?
@DamianHeinz I learned rhyming techniques, such as internal rhyming and multisyllable rhyming, among others. These techniques have improved my raps greatly; which in turn, allows me to praise God even more greatly. If by listening to non-Christian raps it allows me to praise God better, I don't think that's wrong.
And yes, I realize God can give me all that and much more, but perhaps He did give me that knowledge, by allowing me to listen to those other rappers.
Give me proof that they sold their souls to the devil and I'll take your argument for worth something. Find me a link to it. And I'm pretty sure that you can use things you learn in a secular way to praise God. . . people learned how to make speakers through secular means, learned how to make hearing aids through secular means. Without those many people would not be able to hear sermons. People made contacts through secular means.
@SpikedJerex I was late on reply, but I see others already replied to you with Godly correction. but another verse Revelation 3:16 "So then because you are lukewarm, and neither cold nor hot, I will spew you out of my mouth." Listen I used to be the biggest dipset slaughterhouse- all underground rap fan. I said the same thing about learning rhyme techniques from them. People in church saide to get rid of that music Its hard at first but trust me it works for the good Let it be all good- all God
@smvr No there is an importance to world music, it makes us remember our fallen state. This song should have told you that we are nothing on our own, everyone needs christ, we are in need of forgiveness just as badly as the artists you mentioned.
@ImSoOffended i think smvr is right. because the bible says that when we ask forgiveness for our sins, then God puts them as far is th east is fro the west. and remembers them no more. so y should we dwell on this ungodly music like lil wayne and stuff to remember all of the bad stuff? because God has forgotten them and they are gone forever.
So music that tells people everything is okay, that they can make it through life, they just need to be strong . . . that music's only worth is to remind people that this world is filled with sin? sure. Music is an artistic expression, just as painting is an artistic expression. So are you saying any painting that isn't about God is wrong and is only a reminder or a bad state of being? God gave these people a gift, and it is their responsibility to use it.
@XxnkklllllxX I agree, everyone is so weird about doing things for God. We are given a beautiful world and are destroying it. Based on so many extreme christian views, if I was to dedicate my life to preventing the destruction of this beautiful earth, some christians would say that I'm blind and should dedicate my life to Christianity. I don't see how, in the eyes of some extreme christians, doing good things isn't serving God. Some people are so damn extreme and ignorant
@ShagginWaggin32 Doing Good Things Isnt serving God but it's the things you do to honor God which is doing what his word says,but the way we (christians) honor God is doing his word so how is that too extreme? but i can agree some are ignorant but thats not what god likes."I'm Not Extreme I'm Redeemed with faith to serve a God Whose Extremely Great" Jesus went to the Extreme for a sinner like us so we should do the same for him!
@XxnkklllllxX Yeah God Did give everybody a gift but that gift is for Gods purpose and no thats not what were saying were just saying it because theres things out there like showing sex when people arent even married in movies which is a sin and lust and pride.The world is of sin,but its by the grace of God we can be forgiven and every person has that upon their lives!
okay, the only reason I replied to that guy was because he said that people must stop listening to ALL secular music because it takes you away from God. So i had to ask that question. And if your msuic saves someone's life,do you really think God cares if it said "Praise God" or "Everything will be okay." ? I don't think he would care so long as one of his Children didn't commit suicide. There is a place in this world for all forms of art, secular or not.
Might as well commit suicide when you're being led into hell...Listen..it's harsh, and probably offensive, but THEIR MUSIC IS WHACK.
Now I'll admit, there are great bands out there, with great lyrics that reach out to those searching souls. Lemme tell you though, the world'll be a whole lot better when those lukewarm artists pick their true side.
Lecrae and other Christian artists are an enormous blessing, why return to the vomit?
So anyone that thinks of committing suicide, but is convinced otherwise, still deserves to go to hell? Great so I should just go shoot myself now.
If you new anything about philosophy and human nature, you would understand that when people of all the same belief are grouped together, they become extremists. What do we associate that word with? right, terrorists. Aka the Crusades, the Spanish Inquisition, and 9/11. It doesn't matter what religion you are, or if you aren't affiliat
ed with a religion. I can argue and debate around this all day. You don't know the true purpose of the music. Tupac, my prime example, appeared as a gangster because his target audience were the poor, impoverished "hood" people. He talked about gettin money, "doin hos" "slingin' rocks" in order to get himself a name so that eventually preach love and respect to people that didn't respect people. Anyone doesn't listen to a typed of music, has no right to determine whether it serves God's
What you're basically saying here is that you'd be willing to feed people dung because it has some sort of nutrition. Stop trying to find good in what's bad, promoting lukewarmness to promote conformity.
I never bashed all things secular, secular means brought about great things. Secular never meant outside the boundaries of God, however. When sin is present, you know the Devil's there, refuse it all you want, but it's true.
Yeah, and sin is everywhere. Including all of us. That's why Jesus died remember? As Lecrae says "Where do we want Him to stop. The murderin level, the stealin level, the lyin level? Or is it the thinkin level?" We all sin. And of course secular doesn't mean outside the boundaries of God, nothing is outside His boundaries. Secular means that it doesn't focus on religious aspects of life. It celebrates life as life. And how am I promoting what's bad? I see nothing wrong with a
a song that says we need to not throw eggs at our troops when they come home, because they are fighting for us to keep us safe from evil. I see nothing wrong with a song about a man that goes through drugs and almost kills himself, but realizes there is a brighter side to things. And if you tell me that listening to these songs, artists like Everclear, tupac, 3 Doors Down, The fray, that they are "lukewarm" then you do not respect them, and as I have said, you are judging them because of what
they say in a song. So once again, stop judging, stop taking everything at face value. You don't know everyone's motives for writing or expressing things the way they do. And btw, the only reason this started is because someone included ALL secular music into the "its Satan's music" category. If all we did was express out love for God through all artistic expression, I don't think we would have a very unique society, nor would we have much of a population.
purpose or not. As the Bible says "Judge not, and you shall not be judged." People that say Tupac was a horrible person and deserves to be dead make me sick. What if a band writes horrible, obscene lyrics and makes millions . . . but then donates all but what they need to survive in order to save lives. The only person that can judge or tell people what they should or can listen to is God. No one here has the right to say that a man can't learn how to rap from secular artists, even though
rap started out secular, became hugely popular as a secular art form. So technically, you think Lecrae shouldn't be able to rap, because I guarantee he learned it mostly from secular stuff. Never thought of that huh?
Wow this song is tight. Lecrae is the truth too! I was at an urban youth conference outside of L.A. and Lacrae and Ambassador were there. L and Ambass had more scripture memorized than most pastors I've meet in my life. God bless!
His stuff is so trueee. Lecrae is a gift from god. starting off doing drugs, bangin woman, drinking, cursing. God saved him n now hes reaching out to us through his music. Praise God!
I'm not the shoes I wear. I'm not the clothes I buy/
I'm am not the house I live in/ I'm not the car I drive I'm not the job I work my worth can never be defined/ by nothing on this earth cause my identity is found in Christ
Still finds his identity in looks and cars If he only knew that he ain't have to look so hard If he looked in God It may seem odd But he be so satisfied, it'll leave you in aweI'm not the shoes I wear I'm not the clothes I buy I'm not the house I live in I'm not the car I drive, no I'm not the job I work You can't define my word We're livin' on God's reverse Identity in found in Christ, found in Christ
thts is so true we tend to dwell so much on what other people think of us Christians evn tho our true identity is found in Christ our Savior and he thinks of as beautiful human beings tht He made in His own image

He isn't saying that he's taking the stuff the artists rap about, he's taking technique. And i guarantee you Lecrae uses the same techniques as the top secular rappers. Don't forget that the man that is considered the greatest rapper ever, Tupac, probably influenced Lecrae at some point in his life.

LUKE 16:13 "No servant can serve two masters. Either he will hate the one and love the other, or he will be devoted to the one and despise the other."
This applies to music as well. You cannot have something from both worlds. Look at it this way, if i had to bake muffins for you and every now and then I put mud into the batch and you see me putting mud into it, will you eat the good muffins as well as the muffins with the mud?

You cannot use what you learn from those in the world in your Christian life. It is the same as offering GOD unclean sacrifices and worship/praise.
Leviticus 22:20 Do not bring anything with a defect, because it will not be accepted on your behalf.
We gain nothing from listening to the music of those in the world. Rappers like Eminem, Jay Z, Kanye West dissaprove Christianity and have said that they have sold their souls to the devil. What can you possibly gain from them?
DamianHeinz 1 year ago
@DamianHeinz I learned rhyming techniques, such as internal rhyming and multisyllable rhyming, among others. These techniques have improved my raps greatly; which in turn, allows me to praise God even more greatly. If by listening to non-Christian raps it allows me to praise God better, I don't think that's wrong.
And yes, I realize God can give me all that and much more, but perhaps He did give me that knowledge, by allowing me to listen to those other rappers.

@DamianHeinz
Give me proof that they sold their souls to the devil and I'll take your argument for worth something. Find me a link to it. And I'm pretty sure that you can use things you learn in a secular way to praise God. . . people learned how to make speakers through secular means, learned how to make hearing aids through secular means. Without those many people would not be able to hear sermons. People made contacts through secular means.

@SpikedJerex I was late on reply, but I see others already replied to you with Godly correction. but another verse Revelation 3:16 "So then because you are lukewarm, and neither cold nor hot, I will spew you out of my mouth." Listen I used to be the biggest dipset slaughterhouse- all underground rap fan. I said the same thing about learning rhyme techniques from them. People in church saide to get rid of that music Its hard at first but trust me it works for the good Let it be all good- all God

@smvr No there is an importance to world music, it makes us remember our fallen state. This song should have told you that we are nothing on our own, everyone needs christ, we are in need of forgiveness just as badly as the artists you mentioned.
ImSoOffended 1 year ago
@ImSoOffended i think smvr is right. because the bible says that when we ask forgiveness for our sins, then God puts them as far is th east is fro the west. and remembers them no more. so y should we dwell on this ungodly music like lil wayne and stuff to remember all of the bad stuff? because God has forgotten them and they are gone forever.

@ImSoOffended
So music that tells people everything is okay, that they can make it through life, they just need to be strong . . . that music's only worth is to remind people that this world is filled with sin? sure. Music is an artistic expression, just as painting is an artistic expression. So are you saying any painting that isn't about God is wrong and is only a reminder or a bad state of being? God gave these people a gift, and it is their responsibility to use it.

@XxnkklllllxX I agree, everyone is so weird about doing things for God. We are given a beautiful world and are destroying it. Based on so many extreme christian views, if I was to dedicate my life to preventing the destruction of this beautiful earth, some christians would say that I'm blind and should dedicate my life to Christianity. I don't see how, in the eyes of some extreme christians, doing good things isn't serving God. Some people are so damn extreme and ignorant

@ShagginWaggin32 Doing Good Things Isnt serving God but it's the things you do to honor God which is doing what his word says,but the way we (christians) honor God is doing his word so how is that too extreme? but i can agree some are ignorant but thats not what god likes."I'm Not Extreme I'm Redeemed with faith to serve a God Whose Extremely Great" Jesus went to the Extreme for a sinner like us so we should do the same for him!

@nalo795
okay, the only reason I replied to that guy was because he said that people must stop listening to ALL secular music because it takes you away from God. So i had to ask that question. And if your msuic saves someone's life,do you really think God cares if it said "Praise God" or "Everything will be okay." ? I don't think he would care so long as one of his Children didn't commit suicide. There is a place in this world for all forms of art, secular or not.
XxnkklllllxX 1 year ago
@XxnkklllllxX
Might as well commit suicide when you're being led into hell...Listen..it's harsh, and probably offensive, but THEIR MUSIC IS WHACK.
Now I'll admit, there are great bands out there, with great lyrics that reach out to those searching souls. Lemme tell you though, the world'll be a whole lot better when those lukewarm artists pick their true side.
Lecrae and other Christian artists are an enormous blessing, why return to the vomit?

So anyone that thinks of committing suicide, but is convinced otherwise, still deserves to go to hell? Great so I should just go shoot myself now.
If you new anything about philosophy and human nature, you would understand that when people of all the same belief are grouped together, they become extremists. What do we associate that word with? right, terrorists. Aka the Crusades, the Spanish Inquisition, and 9/11. It doesn't matter what religion you are, or if you aren't affiliat

ed with a religion. I can argue and debate around this all day. You don't know the true purpose of the music. Tupac, my prime example, appeared as a gangster because his target audience were the poor, impoverished "hood" people. He talked about gettin money, "doin hos" "slingin' rocks" in order to get himself a name so that eventually preach love and respect to people that didn't respect people. Anyone doesn't listen to a typed of music, has no right to determine whether it serves God's

What you're basically saying here is that you'd be willing to feed people dung because it has some sort of nutrition. Stop trying to find good in what's bad, promoting lukewarmness to promote conformity.
I never bashed all things secular, secular means brought about great things. Secular never meant outside the boundaries of God, however. When sin is present, you know the Devil's there, refuse it all you want, but it's true.
I don't tolerate bad artists, I respect them...
MusicRodent 1 year ago
@MusicRodent
Yeah, and sin is everywhere. Including all of us. That's why Jesus died remember? As Lecrae says "Where do we want Him to stop. The murderin level, the stealin level, the lyin level? Or is it the thinkin level?" We all sin. And of course secular doesn't mean outside the boundaries of God, nothing is outside His boundaries. Secular means that it doesn't focus on religious aspects of life. It celebrates life as life. And how am I promoting what's bad? I see nothing wrong with a
XxnkklllllxX 1 year ago
a song that says we need to not throw eggs at our troops when they come home, because they are fighting for us to keep us safe from evil. I see nothing wrong with a song about a man that goes through drugs and almost kills himself, but realizes there is a brighter side to things. And if you tell me that listening to these songs, artists like Everclear, tupac, 3 Doors Down, The fray, that they are "lukewarm" then you do not respect them, and as I have said, you are judging them because of what
XxnkklllllxX 1 year ago
they say in a song. So once again, stop judging, stop taking everything at face value. You don't know everyone's motives for writing or expressing things the way they do. And btw, the only reason this started is because someone included ALL secular music into the "its Satan's music" category. If all we did was express out love for God through all artistic expression, I don't think we would have a very unique society, nor would we have much of a population.
XxnkklllllxX 1 year ago
purpose or not. As the Bible says "Judge not, and you shall not be judged." People that say Tupac was a horrible person and deserves to be dead make me sick. What if a band writes horrible, obscene lyrics and makes millions . . . but then donates all but what they need to survive in order to save lives. The only person that can judge or tell people what they should or can listen to is God. No one here has the right to say that a man can't learn how to rap from secular artists, even though
XxnkklllllxX 1 year ago
rap started out secular, became hugely popular as a secular art form. So technically, you think Lecrae shouldn't be able to rap, because I guarantee he learned it mostly from secular stuff. Never thought of that huh?
