ok dude. my point is that a lot of these dudes are not doing it to spread the word of God, they want the "easy" road in hip-hop. If you dont see that you deaf, dumb and blind.
No thats is merely what you are assuming breh
Ive been following Lecrae for a long time and can tell you that dude not playing
Your problem is you somehow see it a contradiction for someone to support themselves financially by spreading the gospel..
Not by begging for money or "tithes"
Literally just by making music that from the perspective of one who's been redeemed
Lecrae and his 1:16 crew aint on some "Lemme go to foreign countries and simply promote my music and act like im god's gift to earth"
They really about sharing this gospel and changing more people to walk in the ways of Jesus
Ofc there are those who use Christ's name for gain but I can tell you that those brothers in the OP are not ...Ive actually met Andy Mineo at Times Square Church and they are serious about living for Christ
But ayye all Ima tell you is judge righteously..not like the world does..
But dont foolish to think that simply because they make money to support themselves through music that glorifies God they they are not of God...
And on that note I'll drop one of my favorite Lecrae songs
