I understand why some people opposed American gospel but I’m not 100% against it tbh.

I grew up in ministry+church thought I accepted Jesus at 8.

Literally, I never knew Jesus. Lived a lifestyle of sex, partying, fighting, anger, and perversion. No one taught me conversion
With the influence I have, I think it’s so important for me to emphasize conversion and the gospel. I used to make y’all laugh and dropped gems but before, I never truly talked about the raw gospel. Nah man. Listen, Jesus is real. Hell is real. This isn’t a game.
No one.

NO ONE truly preached JESUS TO ME!!!!!

This was my life.

I understand why people get in their feelings and why people speak against certain teachings but I just pray that we allow this to pray that God will shift our hearts and minds back to the gospel period.
I thought I knew Jesus.
I mean I went to church right? I grew in church.

I thought I knew Jesus.
Soooooo broken. Super broken. Thought likes and attention would satisfy.

No one ever at this time in my life told me about the gospel. The true gospel. No one.

But hey, at least I prayed right?

I thought I knew Jesus.
Partying my pain away because ain’t nobody told me that Jesus satisfies.
“I can have fun because I’m Caribbean. Y’all Christians are so judgemental it’s not that serious”
Sooooo angry, aggressive and just bitter and peverted.
Just lost.........

But no one ever told me I needed to be found
These were the faces of a young woman trying to find healing in a world that introduced her to pain from as little as 3 years old.

Yes, I went to church. I fasted. I prayed. I worshipped by my heart was far from him. Matthew 15:8
Y’all only see this. Y’all only see how God uses me in great measures but that was ONLY achieved by me experiencing Jesus! Understanding when Jesus confronts you, there’s absolutely no way you cannot be converted. True change has to happen. This is why I appreciate the gospel.
So I understand why ppl get frustrated with some ledgers with large influences & barely preach the gospel. I understand why people don’t are careful in speaking out against leaders.

But instead of arguing, I pray that this helps you remember the power of the gospel nonetheless
As you’re arguing and calling out this preacher and this preacher and arguing with an elitist tone to correct people without love to appeal to your ego, just remember who you were before you encountered the gospel.

It’s good news. Someone needs it. Don’t be distracted.
If you’re truly frustrated with the body, pray and fast. Go make a difference and lead someone to Christ. It’s so easy to criticize something you don’t contribute to.

If you feel like they aren’t doing it, why don’t you?

The gospel outweighs the arguments and egos of man.
Granted, I don’t agree with the popular preachings of today. However, I do what I can do to help make a difference. To die to myself daily. To truly exalt Jesus in all areas of my life.

It’s so easy to complain and have angry stances against people. But remember the gospel man
