I"m very disappointed especially with this song.....I expected Mary Mary to be different than the world. I was listening to Superfriend and lo and behold I hear David Banner. That alone is TERRIBLE! Furthermore, that song sounded NOTHING like Mary Mary, it sounded like a bunch of R&B singers. Where are the Christian singers at? We are not suppose to be like the world. I think that Mary Mary doesn't understand that.
Wait! Since when did Mary Mary stop being Christians just because David Banner is featured. The song was celebrating Jesus. Listen to David Banner's verse. This is why people find it hard to come to the Kingdom. When people immediatley judge and condemn...Jesus HIMSELF didn't come into the world to condemn, but to save. What if I judged you by the fact that your screename is Pharaoh, for real? All I am saying is let God use Him and don't stunt His process just cause you don't think He can be used. Please God used a donkey. And we are ALL sinners. The DEVIL condemns...the Holy Spirit convicts. Come on, let us do the right thing...Please listen to His verse and the lyrics off the song
Oh Be Quitet!!!! GET over yourself with this idea that Gospel Music should sound a certain way! Did you know that Gospel originated from a mixture of various so-called "secular" genres? Do your homework!!! This music isn't to entertain you, silly. On the other hand, it's to draw the masses to HIM. If he be lifted up he will draw all men unto him. That's the bottom line.
You and your ideas about what GOSPEL should sound like can go somewhere!!!
I think this song is wonderful..... Pharaoh this is how we get the young people into the church........The world started off with God so really the world got their sound from the church not visa versa
Pharoah and Jesus child. You two are on the extremes like most Christians. It is either all or nothing in your viewpoints.
There are plenty of great Christian Rappers that Mary Mary could have called. So to get David Banner in my opinion is wrong and it does send the wrong message. In addition to that, this is not how we should get teens into church even if it were a Christian Rapper. We need to get the church off of the padded pews and chairs and touch these teens. Not simply get them a CD and a banging beat. Let that be there when they get home to keep from going to David Banner but you are the best thing that God can use to get them into the church and by church I mean the true church. The body of Christ. Not the building where you meet!
Since when was music to get people in the church....Nothing is to get them in the church. We need to change from trying to get people in the church and succeeding getting people in the Kingdom. Jesus didn't preach the Church, He preached the Kingdom! Remember: "Repent, for the Kingdom of Heaven is at hand." Who knows? God could have been behind the decision to use a prominent secular artist, who is rapping about the fact that he is trying to do all he can to grow in Christ Jesus *Hinit*Hint* Maybe He isn't the same David Banner we all assumed him to be. Who knows? Don't be so quick to judge! And CICPASTOR is right, however, we need to change the culture of the society who is conforming to the world (Romans 12:1,2). Come on! Love, the Knowledge of God and the Fear of God!!!!
for real. I am not shocked that Mary Mary did this with David Banner. I dont think it is right and that does not mean I am JUDGING. I am just putting my 2cents in. Do not be conformed to things of this world, come from amongst them! THERE IS NO SIN IN WHAT THEY DID but I PRAY THEY COME UP HIGHER IN GOD AND SING MORE SONGS THAT TRULY HONOR GOD AND BRING DELIVERANCE THIS CRUNK BUSINESS IN NOT REALLY MY P!
