Hey guys its Friday so I hope you are as excited as I am to be entering the weekend! This week I was on social media and found this video. Apparently, some organization by the name of "Go Ministries" posted this and it has gone rather viral. Now I don’t know them... not mad at their OPINION, because that's what it is... and OPINION. But I do have a problem when people post, state, or mention things that are not factual in factual stance. For example, if I ask you "Is raining outside?", I’m asking for you to give me a FACT, not tell me "NO, based on you THINKING the weather will clear up today. You have just given me an opinion like it was the truth (aka factual stance). Get it now? Anyhoo, check out the video below and tell me what you think?
Interesting.... Yep, that's my new word I used to describe something when I don't have good/nice/happy words for it. (lol)
I will say this though... This video is bull crap, and is EXACTLY how propaganda works! This TOTALLY takes his interview out of context. I actually saw the FULL interview (which I posted below), and agree with Kirk on MOST of what he said. That many people really are so caught up in the "words" and "stigma" of RELIGION, doing for the sake of doing, rather than being more concerned with the "action" of SPIRITUAL ONENESS AND UPRIGHTNESS WITH CHRIST. This generation does NOT care if you have a 18pc suite on... this generation does NOT care that you cooked Sunday dinners after church... this generation does NOT care that you GO to church every Sunday and Wednesday... this generation does NOT care that you know all the books of the Bible and quote them like you quote your top 5 Facebook friends... they don’t even care that you serve or speak in tongues; to be honest, I really could less myself! ALL they want to see is DO YOU HAVE GOD? CAN YOU SHOW ME HIM? Better yet, can you SHOW ME HOW TO LIVE IN TODAY'S SOCIETY while being FREE? Period point blank. At no point in that or any other interview have I EVER heard Kirk deny, God, the POWER of God, Christ being his Lord and Savior, him being perfect, him being so saved that he could tell you how you're a part of the illumed, or any other foolishness.
What I HAVE heard him say is how he battled with his issue (porn addiction to be exact); how he fell from grace, but was covered and restore by the Grace of God and how his mission is to bring people, young people and NON-believers to Jesus Christ. WHO CARES about him taking picks with NON-Christians?! IF you plan to impact the marketplace outside of the four walls of your church you just may have to actually interact and network with others (NON-believers) to be exact. I tell you, I’m sick of the silliness of the Christian community and I'm a part of it!!!
Now, on the "homosexuality question", I admit, he was doing a LOT of stuttering. *lol* My opinionated argument is that he was probably trying not to "say the wrong thing". BUT, the Bible does speak of Spiritual Indignation. We are to stand for what is right and what is Holy. Yes the Bible is very clear on what GOD says about it, there is no in between. But again, without judging, my opinionated argument would be that his answer of saying "the same thing it says about heterosexuality" was him saying "it says the TRUTH, for both and is not changed". Again, that was me not jumping to conclusions and actually LISTENING to what he said. Im reminded of the scripture in James:
James 4:11-12 ESV Do not speak evil against one another, brothers. The one who speaks against a brother or judges his brother, speaks evil against the law and judges the law. But if you judge the law, you are not a doer of the law but a judge. There is only one lawgiver and judge, he who is able to save and to destroy. But who are you to judge your neighbor?
Final Thoughts: I’m not a DIE-HARD Franklin fan, but I do like his music and I do respect his hustle. As mentioned, I do think this was taken out of context, as most things and every meme of a picture with someone else's words are. At the end of the day, there are SO many more things, issues, concerns, and demons to fight and protest about... Let's not do it our own (God's people), the world does it enough for us. #Sela #getfreetoday
