I have noticed among secular music artists- lyrics which are like warnings from God about Judgment. I think God is using everything to reach people before the end comes. This generation finds rap music very popular and so many of the masses follow this music which is very materialistic. ironically, the word "rap" means the "end" of course. I truly think that God is using very popular artists to warn and reach of his coming on a spiritual level through what is popular to this generation. Here are the lyrics to a song by rapper Machine Gun Kelly that seems to not be him or match his story...it is a song entitled: "Long Time Coming"...It's been a long time coming, I'm coming now. I've seen it all through the distance, I seen it all. ....the song has an extended version called "long time coming, look at me now that says again: " it's been a long time coming, I seen it all through the distance, I seen it all, I wear the crown.". What are your thoughts that this could be God warning the secular world through this popular rap artist, who is also with a popular actress, Megan fox?
"Ironically the word rap means end, of course". According to what? Where?
How does who he's dating matter in the discussion at all? What's the relevance?
Assuming for a minute your premise is true, how do these lyrics bring anyone to God in any manner? How is anyone warned by them without context of it being a message from God?
Is there any fruit to back up this notion? For a long time secular artists have mentioned God, thanked God, etc... and some even Jesus, but I've not heard of that affecting anyone. Especially since everything else they express goes against God.
Lyrics can be very subjective, to state these lyrics don't reflect his journey is to presume to know his thoughts when writing. What may not be obvious to you could be clear as day to him. Trust me, as one that used to write, myself. People see in lyrics what they relate to, and that's not always the intended message.
God used a donkey, that doesn't mean God uses donkeys all the time.
It's more likely that God can use something to speak to an individual, rather than sending out vague messages en masse.
I remember as a teen watching a Batman movie and through it learning about the inner struggle of good vs evil. I saw that as God using something not intended for me, and bringing something good from it.
That didn't mean I thought the actors or writers or producers, the movie franchise or Hollywood were being used by God.
