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!
