Evangel (of ChristCentric) - Holy Are You (Response to Rakim) - with Lyrics*

Rakim (of the famous rap group, Eric B. & Rakim) released a blasphemous song called "Holy Are You" where he praises himself as god. Evangel (from ChristCentric) corrects Rakim out of love with a response track where he clarifies that there is only one God...the God of the Bible...

Lyrics:
They say you're the God MC, the lyricist/
Hearing this, I'm like what god is he? You serious?/
It's absurd cause Ra said, he'd know the ledge/
Then know Christ was God before your squirt arised to fertilize eggs/
You said you understand Scripture, let's assume it's true/
The God of the Bible says there's no room for two/
Don't sell cheap, His glory's not a hotel suite/
You lyricize as your prize like the Nobel peace/
Peep, you can find it in the words of John/
The Word was with God, the Word was God, word is bond/
Born in the manger scene/
Meanwhile, you were unclean, before you became a teen/
The most anticipated, kid of David/
As stated in the sophisticated, blade, that cuts going and coming like it's seraded/
Man invaded by God, the real God, picture that like it's pixelated/
Kids debate it with rhetorical questioning/
Trying to answer against historical evidence/
Doubt His existence, listen/
And bow to the wisdom, and witness of a martyred crowd of Christians/
This is how it should be done/
This child was identical to none/
He came in the door, obeying the law/
To never let sin terrorize anymore/


You god? Your last breath's gonna kill your identity/
The real Divinity's been revealed in the Trinity/
Who says death is the sinner's fee/
There's no breath for iniquities, yet He still gives us trees/
Is your mind possibly higher than Socrates?/
The weight you drop is scientific properties/
His philosophy talk's all ministry/
Ask H2O, He walked on chemistry/
Hurled wind and lightning, kept the world spinning like rims/
You think you're so thorough, spit it like Him/
You spit it lyrical, metaphysical, or spiritual/
Whatever you call it, He did it literal/
Giving lives creation/
He's none other than the father of the mother of civilization/
This is comedy, your mathematics, geometry/
Trigonometry, couldn't calm the seas/
See He's greater/
than your equations, He's the Creator of the equator/
See He's ill/
Before you moved the crowd, He was moving clouds, peace be still/
Same demeanor/
He took the blame, the pain, though He remained greater than Hurricane Katrina/
To take the charge like a raging bull/
So we can dead it with His credit, it's "paid in full"/

[Merkaba1108]

Jesus said, "The kingdom of God is within you." If God is within each of us, then aren't we all a piece of God?

[syracusefan1]

A better translation for Luke 17:21 is: "the kingdom of God is in the midst of you" (ESV).

[syracusefan1]

Here are what the study notes from the ESV Study Bible say on this matter...

The Pharisees repeat their mistake of 14:15 in not recognizing that the 'kingdom of God' has already come. It is 'in the midst of you,' in the person of Jesus and in the reign of God manifested in those who are already following Jesus. Some understand Jesus to say here that the kingdom is within you, but he would not say that to disbelieving Pharisees.

@Merkaba1108 ...that's a good discussion... Corinthians 3:16. ..."You are the temple of God, and that the Spirit of God dwell in you". The writer is speaking to those who had accepted Christ as their Lord and Savior and thus received the gift of the Holy Spirit as Christ has promised to those that follow Him. It is this Holy Spirit or Ghost , the very Spirit of God who IS Holy, that makes the body of the believer a consecrated temple of or unto God. And this promise is even unto you.

[RealCoolFreakinGuy]

@catwalk38 Rakim is not Islam; he is 5-Percenter (Nation of Gods and Earths)

[Firstblk]

Theirs no God Mc,s they all burn in debris . Because we all shapen in iniquity from Birth. To get saved is vital but it's by grace alone Christ sitting on the throne. He overcame death ,and the grave . That's why Ephesians 2:8 says for by Grace are he saved not of works . Those that are in Christ are not of earth in spiritual sense once they repent. You know what is Christ defeated death no other false claimer did. The act that he completed. Those that come against names will be deleted in the

[33sjoyfuldisciple]

how incredibly pompous to declare you are the best (god) mc. by contrast, you never see a dedicated Christian pridefully claim best, in this or that. nor use scornfully abusive language in insult to defend a point. such a relevant song! we all need to seek the truth.

[catwalk38]

ra belives in islam first of all christian stop sticking your nose in other ppls beliefs this song isn't relevant 

[catwalk38]

[dreamcatchertwice]

@Merkaba1108 absolutely; we are the Body of Christ

[Revo4Bmore]

Whoever thinks Evangel is disrespecting Rakim is not listening. He gave props to Rakim while communicating the gospel and glorfying God, the true God. Whoever was defending Rakim, also wasn't really listening. Look through his whole body of work.
