A Pastor rages and disses Hip Hop. Pastor G. Craig Lewis, founder of EX-ministries/exministries.com, says, “Because of its origin and what hip-hop originally represented in its earlier stages, we cannot embrace it as Christians. There can be no holy “hip-hoppers” or no Christian hip-hop because the culture cannot lend itself to the direction of the Holy Spirit. Yes, we do have very powerful Christian rap groups that preach the word of God through rap, but we must not get confused and call what they are doing as hip-hop. You have to understand that God does not embrace anything that has a corrupt origin. The very word “hip-hop” was used by Afrikka Bambatta, one of the pioneers of the culture and professed Zulu Nation god, to describe the parties that he was hosting in clubs across New York in the early 70s. Since then, he has developed a religion that rested upon the hip-hop culture. The culture is not from God, therefore, it should not be used by the people of God to describe anything that is of God. Check the origin.

Nice post. I learn something tougher on totally different blogs everyday. It would always be stimulating to learn content material from different writers and practice just a little something from their store. I’d want to use some with the content on my weblog whether you don’t mind. Natually I’ll provide you with a link in your web blog. Thanks for sharing.
