Is it wrong for Christians to Battle rap?
I feel that it's all a matter of
the heart.Whats your motive behind doing it? Is it for your own glory? Is it to break others down? I can't judge anyone's heart but I can analyze the fruit and I feel there can be powerful fruit in battling if done with the right motive. Yes the Bible speaks of not breaking another person down. But in the
Hip-Hop world battling is supposed to be done with love and with respect for
the culture. At the end of the battle we know that the cracks on the other
emcee was for fun and shouldn't be taken literally.If your in a battle you should know what to expect, we know that it's all a display of hyperbole.You shouldn't feel the person is breaking you down to destroy your life or something: It's a sport. The Battle world is filled
with many people who don't know the Gospel of Jesus Christ. Why not infiltrate
that world by battling in excellence and being a Godly example. Don't put God in a box! Can Battling
and keeping your testimony be done at the same time.Yes, I believe I have found
the guy who has accomplished that. He is a rapper that resides in Orlando that goes by the name of Issac Knox. He
creates witty battle lines that can resemble a creative cracking session between
youth group attenders at Denny's. It's all love. I don't feel the man ever
crosses the line when he battles. He doesn't degrade women, curse or blaspheme
Christ. All Issac Knox does is create high quality battle raps that stay in
line with his faith. It's genius. Check out one of his battles and give me your
take on this matter.
Warning: Hindu Rock curses(Some may not be able to handle). Issac Knox is the one who is a Christian.
