It's official: No more "sinful" tracks from me
 
I've been going through a metamorphosis lately. Much of this I have God to thank for. And, I'd like to publicly declare my faith in Jesus Christ. I believe that God died for my sins and that I am saved through His grace. No man can judge me and there is no condemnation to me now that my heart and soul belong to Christ. This isn't a new thing or a "jail house" conversion as some of you may be thinking. I've always held to a conviction that God was on my side and loved me. I just detoured and entered into this back slidden state. I was recently baptized and joined a new church at the end of 2005. I can now say that I'm on the right road to becomming the man of God that He's pre-ordained me to be.

I won't be making any more "gangster" themed songs or "club" themed songs as long as I can help it. I feel a conviction in my spirit that that's wrong on my part. From now on, all of my songs will be gospel themed, life themed, or philosophically/politically themed. No one is perfect and we are all sinners. And, I struggle with trying to do right like the next man. The difference is, I confess my weaknesses to God and trust in Him to forgive me and lead me along the right path.

I'm not a "Christian" rapper. But, I am no longer a rapper who you'll be hearing "damaging" tracks from.


P.S....To those who will take a stance and say that I don't have a "right" to represent God because of my struggles with my issues (sexuality), to you I say, "judge not lest ye be judged." No one in this world doesn't struggle with SOMETHING God deems a sin. The bible condemns pride and fornication as much as the sexual sin I wrestle with. So, let's focus on what's important here, acknowledging Jesus as Lord of all and accepting Him as your savior.


That's all people.

That's good to hear Q.......I am also saved. I've accepted Jesus Christ as my Lord and Savior back in the summer of 2003. I haven't been as sinless as I would have hoped to have been, but I'm trying a different way to getting the message spread. I want to show people that you can lead a normal life and still go to heaven......you just have to live your life for Jesus Christ :thumbup:™

Don't get me wrong, I plan to make tracks relevant to life because I'm also a realist. I said I will be making NO more "gangster" or "club" songs.



And Enygma...good goin bro

Stay in that word man...the only way to equip yourself to deal with the ideologies that make it hard to lead a sin-free life--or a less sinful one.

Way to throw "Five Source Entertainment" out of the window. That shit had an extremely minimal chance to become known, but now it's pretty much at 0. Good decision making.

Congrats Q, I'm glad to hear it.

Some people don't recognize exactly what you are talking about here, because they have never been brought to the light, or choose to not accept the fact that there is a God.

However, some of us are not smart enough to follow the path less followed, so thus, I'm still looking at eternal damnation. Damn. That sucks.

I dont support it.
I doubt if the Lord would like to be represented by a flaming homosexual.
but, I dont know.

Back off the man... he's made a choice to try to better his life for the Lord.

So, let him do that.

Zone Out 01-15-06 05:58 PM

the best way to better your life if you're a homosexual male is to become heterosexual male.

villagepimp 01-15-06 06:00 PM

If that is in God's plan for him, then that is what will happen.
