Stop trying to find loop holes!!!!

Saints,

I don't agree with a gospel artist teaming up with a secular artist at all. Sorry just don't. How does that work? Isn't our music supposed to be glorifying the Lord? How do you do such things with a secular artist on a track that does not hold the same moral values as we do? I mean as Christians we can't go into something like that thinking we will hold them to our moral standard on that project. They don't understand our moral standard and we cant expect them to. They are not the ones that are claiming Christ, we are. Therefore, we are the ones that will be held accountable when people hear that one track you do with whoever and then they hear the tracks after that and associate you with it. They will think it is hypocritical because the world is always trying to make excuses for what they do and will jump all over an opportunity to point out a Christians fault in the spotlight. They wont hear your message and they will call you out on it.

If you are saying that you are using the opportunity to try to speak into the artist, in hopes that they will come to Christ. Well if you got it in good with them like that and they ask you to work on a project with them, then I would say pass on the project and minister to them anyways. They are not just going to come out of the blue like that and ask you to get on a song with them. You more than likely would have a pre-existing relationship with them in which you probably, I would hope, have already been witnessing to them and therefore you would have no need of urgency to jump on the project cause you don't know if you will ever have a chance to speak into their life again.

I do get tired of hearing people say, "Imagine if 50 got saved, the damage he could do for the kingdom of God." Well 50 isn't saved and thats that. I am not saying he cant be, but we got plenty of gospel artist that are just as bangin doing it big for God NOW. How insulting is that to God? Lord your tools are not good enough, but if you had that "50 tool" man show would be over. That is what we are essentially saying when we say such things.

Jesus was amongst the sinners, but he was not a sinner. The moment a Christian artist hops on a secular track, they just went from being amongst the sinners to being part of a sinful image.

Thats how I see things...

Grace and Peace
