Exodus 32:17-18 (King James Version)
I pray that you all are well in the will of the Lord on today. Some folks may be a tad bit chili due to the weather, but I love it. Continue to stay warm dry and protect your health. The photos below says it all of today topic…the message is definitely in the music. I’ll start off with the world and end with the world in the Christian community.
This is Britney Spears…
She’s looking mighty lustful on her brand new CD cover. The media says “she’s back”, but they didn’t finish the statement. Britney’s back to transform the minds of our innocent sons and daughters, which includes altering their minds into accepting & practicing homosexuality. Now with all that this young lady has been through nothing has changed…she still displays the behavior of a harlot. Take a look at the titles of her songs.
The Track Listing for Circus

Any of these titles sound wholesome to you? Yet there will be many young girls (and boys) with Britney’s Circus CD in their CD players, mp3 & mp4 players, their iPods, PSPs, etc. because the parents will not know any better and allow their kids to corrupt their own minds and become more numb to the Word God. Saints, we must not allow the idolization that our youth (adults as well) have for these superstars supersede that attention that God so rightfully deserves. Britney is on my prayer list, but I will not allow my children to be exposed to her just because they “love her” and are Britney’s number one fan. We have a discern more and not allow our feelings to get in the way of God’s command in raising our children.
There is a message in Britney’s song If U Seek Amy that may very well vex your spirit. I have to tell it like it is and I ask that you pray that God will allow you to become more involve in the lives of our youth than we are now…there is always room for improvement in all of us. Here are just a few lyrics to Britney’s song.
La la la lala la la la
La la la lala la la la
La la la lala la la la
La la la lala la la la
Oh baby, baby Have you seen Amy tonight?
Is she in the bathroom?
Is she smokin' up outside?
(Oh!)
Oh baby, baby
Does she take a piece of lime
For the drink that Imma buy her
Do you know just what she likes?
(Oh!)
Oh Oh
Tell me have you seen her
'Cause I'm so Oh
I can't get her off of my brain
I just want to go to the party she gon' go
Can somebody take me home
Haha hehe haha ho
Love me hate me
Say what you want about me
But all of the boys and all of the girls are beggin' to If U Seek Amy
Love me hate me
But can't you see what I see
All of the boys and all of the girls are beggin' to If U Seek Amy
Who is the world is Amy? This is what I immediately asked myself…and I knew that there was more to this. First of all, if you notice at the beginning of her verse she is displaying lesbian behavior in her wanting to find “Amy” and getting her flirt on. The punch line is in the last lines of the chorus “All of the boys and all of the girls are beggin' to If U Seek Amy”. If say make out the phrase “If U Seek Amy” in the song, you’ll actually hear and discern F-U-C-K Me. All of the boys and all of the girls are beggin’ to F-U-C-K Me. What is slick way to get all of our girls, boys, men and women to become more sexually aroused and perverted and many of them not know why after listening to songs like this. Like for yourself at the following link.

The media is becoming more corrupt as we live. Remember corrupt means an individual willing to act dishonestly in return for money or personal gain or they are evil or morally depraved. There are separate standards here and the church must speak against it. Please pass this along to everyone you know in order to at least get this across so folks can know. Folks the message is in the music.
15Were they brought to shame because they had committed abominations (extremely disgusting and vile things)? No, they were not at all ashamed, nor could they blush [at their idolatry]. Therefore they shall fall among those who fall; at the time that I punish them they shall be overthrown, says the Lord.
Jeremiah 6:15 (Amplified Bible)
Some or many may be upset with this one, but I have to tell it. Mary Mary is out with their fourth album The Sound. And when I heard the album, it sounded like trouble. Normally for me three or five songs was worth buying the whole CD (when I was purchasing secular music and there was no iTunes), but I cannot find one song on their album that I say is of the Lord. The cover of their album portrays them as if they’re going to the club. Who wears these garments to Christian functions?
And yes Family Christian Bookstore and many others are carrying their CD along with Wal-Mart and even store like Sam Goody. You should be very afraid when secular stores are carrying you albums to sell. The hit song Get Up was on ABC’s Ugly Betty. You really need to be afraid when your song sounds worldly enough to be on secular shows…wait a minute…that’s been going on for years now. The beats on this album are all secular…not a holy note from the heart in it. But they have a song on their album called Superfriend, and they have a very special guest on that song. Levell Crump, better known to the hip hop world as David Banner is feature on this track. Levell (I’ll call him Levell because that’s what his mother named him…somebody did!) is one of the top explicit secular hip hop artist that you would not want your parents to meet. Levell is so explicit that in 2003 he had an album titled Baptized in Dirty Water, which reverence no respect of the every living God…Levell only blasphemed our Lord Jesus Christ.
What makes this collaboration more sore vexed is that Levell has a 2008 album out right now titled The Greatest Story Ever Told, which also tells me that even if the brother gave his life to Christ, he needs to be sat down and taught the ways of Christ…for a while!!! In his rhyme on Mary Mary’s track makes no since what’s so ever. This is because you can’t drink from the cup of devils and sit at demons’ tables and do the same at God’s table (1 Corinthians 10:21). This is definitely idol worship and idol worship breaks that unity we have with God through the Lord’s Supper. The message is in the music.
Mary Mary sounds confused and poisoned in this following video. Did they just indicate that they were voting for change and “Lord knows we need it”? Sad that many Christians just don’t know they voted for someone who does not believe in Jesus Christ truthfully, but that’s another subject. Please join me in praying for them and many of our Christian artists who are not follow the instructions of the Bible the way God commanded us to.
22Though you offer Me your burnt offerings and your cereal offerings, I will not accept them, neither will I look upon the peace or thank offerings of your fatted beasts. 23Take away from Me the noise of your songs, for I will not listen to the melody of your harps. 24But let justice run down like waters and righteousness as a mighty and ever-flowing stream. Amos 5:22-24 (Amplified Bible)
Saints of God, the Lord is not playing with us and if we are not careful, we will allow the messages in many of today’s entertainment (whether secular or Christian) deceive us in falling away from the faith. It is time to stop wanting to have things our way and really repent, repent, repent, REPENT and return back to the favor of the Lord. The future of our church is dependant upon our children. If our children are corrupt, then the church will become more and corrupt. But there will be churches that continue to stand for righteousness and holiness. We must not allow the influences of evil to get in our way. Prophet Isaiah say it best in Isaiah 5:20 that, Woe to those who call evil good and good evil, who put darkness for light and light for darkness, who put bitter for sweet and sweet for bitter! (Amplified Bible)…we are living in that day right now. The message is in the music.
As we continue in this walk with Christ, we must make a vass decision. Either we are truly for Him or totally against Him. Continue to stand firm in Christ my brothers and sisters and allow God to use you to the best of your humble ability. Big thanks to my brother in the Lord, Michael "Mike" Plont of No More Ministries for sending me this information on Britney Spears. Love you bro and we can't do it alone and we won't. Be blessed on this day and know that Jesus loves you and I love you all too. Until the Sequel of Jesus.
