The Music Debate

-
There's been this music debate in Christianity for a while now, or whether we should/can listen to mainstream music. And with so much points and argument I think on one had you can and the other you can't. I mainly think you can't as the Holy Spirit has advised me and I've even felt guilty listening to secular music. It doesn't make sense as a Christian to listen to music that promotes sin and the things of this world. A Christian listening to this sort of music is like a Muslim eating pork it doesn't make sense. And just because it's not in the Bible doesn't mean its not wrong! Where many believers get it wrong or try to be smart. We all know or even sadly choose to be ignorant that most of theses artists worship or are involved with Satan and his cults. Isn't it not more so to flee from this music? I for one was convicted for the last 8 years to let go of this music as it brought nothing to my life only to be idolizing stars who are poster boys of this world, Since I've let go of music I can say I'm more free. Don't get me wrong I like to keep up to date as I'm a media blogger so I follow the music world but I don't stan and go to concerts or buy albums, I draw a line as God want us to be aliens of this world and not blend in like a banana in a smoothie. But in saying that I think some secular music you can listen as LONG AS its positive, uplifting and has a good message behind it. So its all about discernment I know many believers say they haven't been convicted or "Its not that deep" But if something is against your faith and promotes contradiction why take part in it? I can tell you personally music and many means of entertainment have ruined my walk of God, don't be blinded like I was because music is destroying many lives and ruining many peoples walk in Christ. I can only pray God gives you guys discernment.

Church Hurt

Church Hurt   For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the LORD, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future. Jeremiah 29:11 For week’s I didn’t know how to start this blog, as many pushed me to do this blog, because church hurt is a sensitive subject to talk about where many have given up, many are bitter and many like me, not anymore gave up on the church and questioned the Christian community (DISCLAIMER - THIS IS NOT TO EXPOSE ANYONE WHO I FELT ATTACKED BY AS NAMES/ORGANISATIONS WON’T BE MENTIONED THIS IS TO HELP NOT PUT DOWN OR CRITICIZE). So let’s get down to the nitty gritty. I got over my church hurt 5 years ago, and I compare church hurt to one of Killmonger (Yh I’m using a Black Panther analogy, don’t cry, don’t beg about spoilers you’ve had more than a month to watch it!!!! Lool) so back to my point Killmonger is those who’ve gone through church hurt, Killmonger who is Black Panther’s long lost cousin and arch neme...

Spiritual Priorities

If you ask me "what's the main principle of being a Christian?" I would tell you it's to put God and the things of God FIRST!!!!!!! But this is the thing that I don't see much of Christians in this era, most of us don't value our spiritual priorities or sadly don't have any. What do I mean by spiritual priorities? It's how we prioritize the things of God and how we serve God in our day to day lives. This is what saddens me, slowly and slowly many Christians put God and their faith as the last thing on their list of priorities. There's always an excuse why we didn't go to church, why we didn't pray, why we don't seek or fast and so on and so on, because we put our lives, the things of this world and our busy schedules before God. Okay it doesn't help that we live in the era of technology and demanding work and commitment schedules in life but surely if we serve a great God surely we can make time for him in a 24 hour day???

The Same Energy You Have For Beyonce, Have For Jesus

The Same Energy You Have For Beyonce, Have For Jesus “But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well. ” Matthew 6:33 Disclaimer: What I’m about to talk will be sensitive as talking about spiritual priorities will offend some as it can be a touchy subject; this blog is to educate, help and inspire other Christians to put God first in everything. As someone who didn’t have any spiritual priorities over 3 years ago I have no right to judge or shade anyone, which is not my purpose or aim of this piece. The title must’ve got heads spinning and this is what I intended to do, because like I do, I always point out what wrong goes on in the Christian community and give a solution. We Stan celebrities, and when I mean Stan, if you don’t know the term from the iconic Eminem song, I mean radically idolize celebrities such as Beyonce where her fan base goes to far as insulting people online who don’t like her music, to even take a...
