Allow Me to Introduce Myself


It has come to my attention that I have not formally introduced myself. My name is Minister Emanuel Osborne, I’m a 21yr old college student and excited about what God is doing in this season of my life as well as every believer. I believe that the Bible is the absolute standard for mankind; I would define myself as a simple yet complex, eclectic person.
I’m an abstinence/purity expert and believe in no sex until marriage or the call of celibacy is sexual guideline for all virgins. Also for those who are not virgins but have virgin relationships (meaning you never slept with the person your dating). I looked out into the world and saw young ladies carrying babes, instead of books, to many baby showers and not enough weddings. I saw young Men become fathers without having been fathered themselves. I saw the economic status of my community crumbling, so God gave me something called the Proud Virgin Movement. (PVM) There should be no shame in living right or righteous, this movement just isn’t for virgins but it’s for those who understand God’s law.

 Here is a recent snippet from a recent interview:    

 

    REP: What made you want to start a abstinence movement?

MIN. E.O:  “I took a look into the many problems facing our generation, especially for males and I noticed how society puts much effort into us being good dancers, great athletes, well dressed and all-around playas. Yet with more education, more money, and more resource our integrity is as low as ever. 70 percent of African American children grow up in single mother homes, and you would think that the number one goal of a young man would be of protection and honor. Ironically more often than not these same young men Photoshop themselves into a false image of what society, their environment and their socio-economic surroundings define manhood as. So I tell the guys this one principle if you wouldn’t make her your Wife don’t make her a Mother. “

 REP: How long has the PV Movement been in action?

MIN E.O: “It’s been established since 2010”.

 REP:  What is abstinence to you?

MIN. E.O: “Abstinence is the practice of restraining oneself from indulging in sexual activity before marriage. Abstinence helps to practice self-control, a strong man is not someone who can conquer a city but who can conquer himself. Tiger Woods problem was not money, Congressman Weiner problem was not success, Bill Clifton problem was not status. Their problem was self-control. What your brain has accomplished in years your immoral desires can destroy in minutes.”

 REP: Do you think that abstinence programs have helped?

MIN E.O: “Yes when they have been taught properly.”

 REP: What happens when teens have sex outside of marriage?

MIN E.O: “Beyond the cliché, emotional, mental and spiritual scarring takes place, and something called a soul tie is formed. It is the joining together of two people, have you been angry when your normally upbeat? Do you have a certain carving that you usually wouldn’t? What if I told you that you have been feed these traits from the last person you slept with?”

 REP: Is abstinence the only way is prevent pregnancy and STDs?

MIN E.O: “Yes of course it is the only 100% way, many argue whether it is possible to accomplish. I say with the right training any ordinary man can become a solider, what we have done as a culture is try to remove the consequence of  having a baby while enjoying the process of making them. I do not agree with giving out condoms because I believe you are initiating unwed sex as okay just as long as you don’t get a girl pregnant. Just like saying it’s okay to steal just don’t get caught. The world is a dangerous place but someone would never give their child a gun for protection, why?  People know that they will have the intention of using it. We are in a sexual world war and condoms are weapons of mass destruction use to conquer the body of someone else, leaving them to pick up the pieces.  When you give someone a tool be prepared for them to find work.”

Proud Virgin Movement:Teen Sexting Linked to More Sexual Activity



– “Sexting,” the sending or receiving of sexually explicit messages or photos by cell phone, isn’t an alternative to teens’ sexual activity, but is actually linked to it, according to a new study. “Sexting is part of the new landscape of the sex lives of teens,” says researcher Eric Rice, PhD, assistant professor of social work at the University of Southern California, Los Angeles. While some experts have suggested that sexting is an alternative to having sex for teens, this research suggests otherwise. Teens who sexted were more likely to be sexually active, and some were more likely to engage in risky sex. He found that 15% of teens who had access to a cell phone had sexted, and 54% reported knowing someone who had sent a sext. Rice says sexting should be addressed in sex education classes. The topic might also help parents open a conversation about sex with their teens, he says. The study is published in Pediatrics. Sexting & Sexual Behaviors: Details Rice looked at data from more than 1,800 Los Angeles high school students. Most students were 14 to 17 years old. They answered questions about their own sexting practices and those of their friends. They reported on their sexual activity and safe sex practices. Nearly 87% of the students described themselves as heterosexual. The others reported being gay, lesbian, bisexual, transgender, or unsure of their orientation. Those who had friends who sexted were much more likely to sext themselves, about 17 times more likely, Rice found. And, “teens who sext are seven times more likely to be sexually active,” he says. Rice found differences between straight teens and other teens. Those who reported being non-heterosexual were nearly three times as likely to report sexting. They were 1.5 times more likely to report sexual activity and nearly two times as likely to have unprotected sex at their last encounter. He cannot explain the differences, but speculates that the Internet may be an easier way to connect for non-heterosexual teens, who may fear stigma otherwise. Most of the teens were Latino or Hispanic, while about a fifth were white or African-American. “I think we can say confidently, ‘This is a good picture of urban youth,’” Rice says. “[But] this might not necessarily translate to rural youth.” Sexting & Sexual Activity: Perspective The study results echo some of those found by Jeff R. Temple, PhD. Earlier this year, his study found that more than 1 in 4 teens have sent nude photos of themselves through text or email. He also found that those who had sent a naked photo were more likely to be sexually active. “We found sexting to be an extension of offline lives,” he says. “It’s a representation of what they are doing in their actual lives.” The finding about gay, lesbian, and transgender teens warrants more study, he says. Meanwhile, parents might use the research as a way to start conversations about sex with their teens, Temple says. “Use this as an opportunity to talk to kids about safe sex and actual sexual behavior,” he says. It can be as simple, Temple says, as mentioning the research in the news, then asking a teen: “What do you think about this study?” “What would you do if someone sent you a naked picture?” By Kathleen Doheny WebMD Health News

Look What LUST Has Done To Us



  Lust has blinded our eyes and caused us to serve only ourselves; we lust and still have not the Bible says. Even though you satisfy that burning lust it is never quenched, it is the equivalent of feeding wood and oxygen to a fire then wonder why the fire hasn’t died out! We have no contentment for our desires, for example, our objectification of one another. I was watching a TV show and a young man was explaining to a young lady that he was a Virgin and he didn’t believe in sex before marriage. Her seductive smile quickly turned into a frown and she said “oh I wouldn’t by a car without test driving it first”. This same metaphor can be used against her; the truth is you can’t drive without a license.  We are so quick to move to the driving (sex) part of a relationship that we forgo the preparation to receive a license (marriage). Here lies the problem with many of us; we view each other as objects and not as human beings with souls. Humans aren’t cars; you see a car you like, you buy it until a newer edition comes out. Doesn’t this sound like many marriages today? Husbands who have been married for years are divorcing their wives for a newer younger woman. We are human beings with souls and emotions; you can’t go around “test driving” individuals. When you sleep around with everything, you’ll catch a little bit of everything! People are so ready to jump in bed with someone not realizing who they lay down with, then they become surprise because they are not who they thought. When you are led by LUST you are walking into a field of land mines blind folded, death is waiting around the corner. The world is full of children who have been the product of two people having sex with no intention of ever having a lasting relationship together. Thousands of people across the world are hooking up just for the sake of satisfying each other’s LUSTFUL desires. Turns out it’s the children who suffer. •Although only 13% of teens have had sex by age 15, most initiate sex in their later teen years. By their 19th birthday, seven in 10 female and male teens have had intercourse. •Among sexually experienced teens, 70% of females and 56% of males report that their first sexual experience was with a steady partner, while 16% of females and 28% of males report first having sex with someone they had just met or who was just a friend. •Young people aged 13–24 made up about 17% of all people diagnosed with HIV/AIDS in the United States in 2008. •Although 15–24-year-olds represent only one-quarter of the sexually active population, they account for nearly half (9.1 million) of the 18.9 million new cases of STIs each year Each year, almost 750,000 U.S. women aged 15–19 become pregnant. [19] Two-thirds of all teen pregnancies occur among 18–19-year-olds. What has happened to us? Did we think that the demoralizing of a people would not demoralize a nation? Look what LUST has done to US! LUST has wrapped it’s hands around our necks and lead us to the slaughter house! (Read the full Article in the upcoming Blessed BeYond Belief October Magazine)

The Hip Hop Church




Recently I went to the library to check out some new books, I left with 5, which I will discuss in the weeks to come.

I have been reading a book titled: "The Hip Hop Church", by Efrem Smith and Phil Jackson. I am only a few pages into the book; in the book it poses these three questions: Does hip hop and the Church collide? Is hip hop in church a compromise? Can hip hop and the church coexist? The collision between hip hop and the church isn’t a new fight, however, it is one that will continue until the end of time. Much of the debate about not letting hip hop in church starts with the image and contributions that hip hop is known for, sagging jeans, chains, objectification of women, violence, and vulgarity just to name a few. Many churches see hip hop as a disease, and it will only spread if you come in contact with it. The truth is, just as Civil Rights and the Black Panther party is apart of the culture for the 50’s thru the 70’s, hip hop is to this generation. Icons such as Dr. King and Malcolm X, have been replaced by Kanye and Jay Z. What Churches haven’t done is support the Christian hip hop artist like Lecrae, Andy Mineo, Swoope, Da' Truth, Flame, Kidd, Gowe, Json, Toby Mac, and Suzy Rock just to name a few. I DON’T listen to secular hip hop at all, because our saved brothers and sisters do a better job. Ironically, Church folk hate hip hop, yet all their members go to all the concerts. Why do you think secular artist charge $80 - $200 dollars for their concerts (that sell out by the way) while a leading Christian artist charges $10-$30 dollars for a smaller crowd? It’s the church that feeds these secular artists they hate so much. If you don’t like what they say, don’t support their music. Instead, many Christians buy the clean version of the song and think they do the world justice (See one of my older posts should Christians Listen to secular music). Can Hip hop and the Church coexist? I believe so, just as Marvin Gaye, Al Green, Whitney Houston and Motown was before this generation; I believe my Christian Brothers and Sisters will do the same. God looks at the heart, but man looks at the outer appearance. Remember, with God all things are possible!

Keep the faith. Min. Emanuel
