- ‘Shawn Mendes Says He Encountered God Listening To Maverick City’
Shawn Mendes was recently on the “Man Enough” podcast, and it got deep! They talked about all sorts of things. From faith to masculinity to childhood trauma. But the thing that stuck out to us the most (and a lot of you) was when he talked about listening to Maverick City and experiencing God. Did you begin to celebrate? Did you throw a party? Or were you more on the skeptical side? In today’s video we share our thoughts on that statement along with a few other things he said in the podcast. We’re excited to hear where you guys are at as well.

I agree with you guys. He is trying to understand and realizing here is something it there especially coming from a atheist background I wish there where some way to actually talk to him show him how God works Bc he on his way as y’all said . I hope and pray he gets saved!!
I think in these last days fewer and fewer people will get saved. These celebs usually turn out to be fake christians or outright agnostics. Yeah, we can pray for him, but I have very little hope. We know what the bible says about rich people and their likelihood to coming to faith (camel / eye of the needle). It`s nearly impossible.
I’m excited that God is working in Shawn’s heart. Even Satan believes in God, so there is clearly still work to be done in Shawn’s heart, but it is cool to see what will hopefully come to fruition! 🙏🏻
“If he continues to seek God with a humble heart, he will discover the Truth (Jesus)!
Amen🔥🙏
I definitely hope and pray that Shawn keeps searching, finds Jesus, and then develops a genuine relationship with God. However, the celebration over this clip is a bit premature, but I am still optimistic and hopeful for him.
Also, he was so close on some of the things he shared; I really just want to sit down with him and a Bible. I hope some one in his life does just that.
Amen Michaela, great insight🙏
Pray his curiously doesn’t relent until he finds the truth! That he won’t be satisfied with just being spiritual.
Amennn🔥🙏
In Christs name Amen!
AMEN!
Haven’t even watched this yet but I just want to say that I love Shawn😭❤️Like he’s the only guy artist in the pop world who really seems to me to have a great heart even if he isint quite sure of his beliefs. He just seems like the kinda guy to be really honest with himself with how he feels about things which is one reason why I love him
I hear you😊
I love this. I am definitely going to be praying for Shawn Mendez
😊❤️
Have you guys thought about making a video about China Anne McClain? She’s been very open in her social media about her beliefs 💙
That might be cool!
Please do consider it 😊
I was thinking the same thing!
I didn’t celebrate bc I was still curious in wanting to hear more from him but I was hopeful. You guys are great and i will continue to pray for Shawn!
Thanks for the comment🙏
Jesus is king 👑
🙏🔥
It is a seed! God does the rest! 💜🙌🏼 I was in New Age for more than 8years. After I heard Doreen Virtue converted, the first the Jesus seed was planted, it kept being watered. My children were even going to the School with the Bible and I was in New Age 😂 eventually, the right time, right moment, God pulled me in, and I repented on everything and after that, ONLY Jesus! Halleluja thank the Lord!💜
Thank you for adding the sections in your videos so viewers can jump to certain parts of your video more quickly! Not sure how long you have been doing this but it’s a nice feature!
Great job at constantly getting people back to the word of God:) When I hear spiritual it's my truth after they get some revelation usually it has to do with self not the bible I get very concern and I always try to get people back to the word because nowadays it's easy to get deceived into many spirits and falling into it.Great job at using discernment with biblical world view not this world view that's why it seems they have a hard time discernment
Amen, that’s really good stuff🙏❤️
I think one of the most important conversations for Christians to have at this time is to remember that emotional reactions to God, the gospel, or Jesus are not sufficient to be saved. I have seen people react emotionally to circumstances but they did not change permanently, and that makes a difference. Praying for Shawn that he finds the truth! :-) thanks guys!
It’s very special that Shawn was so vulnerable in the interview. I don’t think that the language that he used to describe God as “higher power, universe, or Jesus,” was offensive in any way. God is such a huge thing that’s is everything and everywhere, so he’s not wrong in saying that. I still have troubles grasping the overwhelming power and being of God, and it’s kinda beautiful that we cannot even begin comprehend how amazing He is. Everyone has a different journey to God, and we just have to be okay with their pace.
I really liked and enjoyed this video and this conversation so much! You had the right loving and humble attitude and you brought up good arguments and comments. I also liked very much how honest you were about yourself. Great video, great topic, great people doing it. Love ya
Aww thanks Sev
Thank you for the time stamps l love those
Aww cool, welcome :)
I see God working hard in the music industry. Bieber, Mendez, I think its a great push to save as many of his children as he can as the world nears its end. Any kind of recognition of God and Jesus in the entertainment industry is a big deal.
🙏
Shawn seems to be a nice person so I do wish him the best and of cause it would be amazing if he did learn more about God I do think he is starting to think about it 🧡🧡🧡 hope everyone's having a good day/night. Edit:Also even tho I don't always agree with everyone u guys say appreciate the video I think we should all just pray for him 🧡
🙏😊
I love Paul's not-so-subtle fangirling :)) and I agree with everything you guys said. Praying that God reveals himself to Shawn and places people in his life to speak truth into him!
Paul and Morgan I just I love you guys so much, Morgan I want to learn to be like you and I hope someday I’ll find my own path because I can just tell that you guys are so happy together.
Aww that’s very sweet❤️
I'm so glad I ran into this clip. I feel the same way as y'all do about Shawn. I honestly didn't really fully know him until this short video thing on instagram which led me to research more and more about him. For some reason, I have a soft spot for him too, Paul. He is my little bro's age. Shawn seems so authentic and down to earth. He also seems like an old soul and like someone who would be a wonderful believer if he pushed deeper into God's truth, revelation, repentance, baptism of water and the Holy Spirit. John 3 and Acts 2. I hope and pray that the seeds grown in Shawn and he takes the time to look into who his Creator is. May this Maverick City worship encounter take him on a journey of soul searching. It was the best-greatest thing I've ever done at around 19. Now past my mid 20's, JESUS is the greatest encounter that has ever happened to me. I experienced God's great love for the first time in my life in Aug. 2013 and my life did a complete 180. I also was convicted about listening to secular music that's why I had to drop my fav artist's at the time like JB. I guess Shawn was starting out his musical career as I had surrendered fully to Jesus and my soul searching journey had come to an end. There's nothing like experiencing the presence of God. There's nothing like a genuine encounter. I know for me, that day in aug. 2013, I didn't have no music but I was so lost, broken, dark, hopeless, etc as my mom was praying over me and all I could do was cry, cry, and cry until the pain would be lifted. During that cry, it def felt like so many things left me. In JESUS name, hoping that Shawn experiences a God encounter like I did and is never the same again. For me, I searched for love and nothing and or no one could give me the love I was looking for. Only God. He filled that empty void in my heart and soul. My darkness begin to be filled with the great light of our great God. Also, I always wanted to know why I was born and what the purpose of my existence was. I loved learning. I had so many questions. The enemy used the world to rob me of so much BUT I praise my great God because His hands were over my life since before I was born. I just never knew it and Him until my encounter. I can talk about the goodness of our great God constantly. He is so faithful and so GOOD. Thank You Jesus for Your great grace, mercy, and perfect love for me. For us all. I praise You. I agree. Let us all please pray for Shawn. I truly believe that God is reaching for him. I also feel that Shawn is looking for his Creator but doesn't know how to express it. I mean, I didn't. It's hard to comprehend or put into words. It's just a deep longing for belonging. JESUS is His name.
I watched the whole conversation with Shawn Mendes and also thought that it was very interesting. I was surprised by Shawn's self-reflection and the deep level of their conversation. Cause for me personally it is rare to hear such views from non-believers. It's like I as a christian have sometimes no idea of what nonbelievers think and have a prejudice about their mindset. But this podcast surprised me positively and taught me in some way. So basically I agree with everything you said guys :) I appreciate your videos. Greetings from Germany!
I love your content❤️ Thank you for that❤️
I love you guys 😂 Watching y’all makes me feel like I can be myself and gives me hope for a beautiful marriage!🙏🏼💖 also, pumping the breaks a little bit on this one. I believe there’s definitely room for celebration (I think sometimes that’s what it takes to water a seed?) but the “same feeling” thing got me too.. 🥴
Aww that’s so encouraging, thanks for the comment❤️
Of course!!
I was reading Jude last night and loved Jude 1:22 Be merciful to those who doubt.
I’ve seen this in a few places and it’s such a good reminder that as much as we want to correct misbeliefs in a moment like this, this is not a solid believer we can more firmly hold accountable. This is someone trying to find truth so we must be gentle and compassionate.
I think it’s a lot more than other people in Hollywood have, but I really hopes he continue to pursue the truth which is Jesus. It’s our job as Christians to continue to pray and lead people like him to Jesus
🙏
Thank you soooooo much for adressing this topic! Shawn may have had a truly uniquely different cry moment with Jesus, but he says he had the same with the mantras because he's scared of being judged.
Love you guys💗
😊❤️
You bubble bursters! :D I really enjoyed your conversation about this. You both pointed some things out that I thought about too, and I think people get way too excited over celebs saying anything about praying or God. There's different meanings to that.
Hey Candace! Well said, thanks for the support❤️
Love you Paul & Morgan!! Thanks for sharing your perspective again!! 💛💛
😊❤️
Buddhism is most of Asia, China, etc, Hinduism is India mainly, some of Nepal, Islam is Middle East.
I live in China actually, so you have a viewer in China!! And I’m one of those people who live under a rock
Thanks for the info! And for watching😊 What part of China?
Great video as always. Keep speaking truth!
Love y’all ❤️
❤️😊
Indian people can be Christian too, can’t he have encounters with God listening to a song that isn’t even Christian music?
A youtuber came out saying she had an awakening with Jesus alone in a jail cell. 🤔
but he said mantras
@@julietteishimwe2274 I thought mantras we’re sayings like “I am brave” “I am strong” kinds stuff to get yourself thinking positive, not religious..I’m gonna go look it up now.
@@litgirlablaze3432 we are not brave nor strong without God, He is the one that provides us with everything.
If we are saying I am strong, I am this and that, it comes from the law of attraction. You attract from the universe, ...
If you read verses from the Bible, you are going to get into the knowledge of God, in the powers of God, ... like: I can do all things THROUGH CHRIST, WHO strengthens ME. PHIL:4:13
💜
thank you for those important comments! 💞💞
😊🙏
Praying that God surrounds him with the right people and that the he begins to discern that Jesus is where he truly feels at home. I believe it will come with time as he continues searching. I know myself when I was initially truly seeking a personal relationship with God, I used to do yoga and meditate and had no idea it was actually the occult until my cousin made me aware! Straight away I gave it all up but I really identify with what you said Paul about the 'pieces' you pick up along the way. With me once I had the right people around me and I was genuinely seeking God for myself I was able to discern what was of God vs of the world. So let's just pray there'll be people around him to encourage him and like with me, call him out when he's maybe going off track. I know he's good friends with Justin Bieber (ok not an ideal person to guide him) but I think that JB could definitely guide him to seeking Jesus which is a step in the right direction right?
Amen, thanks for sharing🙏
Dumela Paul & Morgan....I would really, I mean really love your bubble poper t-shirts 😍..I already see myself wearing it😁
With what you talked about regarding Shawn Mendes, my take on it is that for Shawn Mendes to be saying that publicly is commendable and I understand why some people got excited as he is a celebrity that people look up.
I pray and hope that he finds the truth about Jesus and receives that truth and nothing else because often times as people generally we may want to receive some parts of the truth and not the whole truth of who God is...Love from Botswana 🇧🇼
I feel like this is a first step for him, hopefully from the sense of recognising that there's a 'higher power' out there he'd come to realise that that's God. Considering he grew up atheists I find it to be quite a big step that he's starting to realize considering he doesn't have people to help him; I just pray the Holy spirit convicts him to be interested.
At this point he's just being open to every religion which I guess is the first step considering at this point he's clueless lol
Really reminds me of the parable of the sower “A sower went out to sow. And as he sowed, some seeds fell along the path, and the birds came and devoured them. Other seeds fell on rocky ground, where they did not have much soil, and immediately they sprang up, since they had no depth of soil, but when the sun rose they were scorched. And since they had no root, tthey withered away. Other seeds fell among uthorns, and the thorns grew up and choked them. Other seeds fell on good soil and produced grain, some va hundredfold, some sixty, some thirty. He who has ears, let him hear.”
I had a friend at uni who seemed to believe in Jesus at the same time as I was believing in Jesus and walking away from he world.. but it was quite short lived.. she cried and spoke about Jesus for a few weeks…but soon let the idea of living for Jesus go and went back to the world…
Can you guys make a video about Natalia Taylor? She has been vocal about her faith and she recently got engaged to a boyfriend she has been living with. They made a video about their relationship and they were both saying putting God in the center of relationship was what kept them together. But I have A LOT of question marks for them. HOWEVER, they came from a very low place of being a drug addict, so perhaps they're still learning about what it means to truly follow Jesus. So if you make video about it please don't talk down on their faith and do it with love🙏 I would love to hear what you guys think of them:)
Praying for Shawn 🙏
Praying for Shawn ❤️
🙏
When you haven’t watched the thing but you already know it’ll be goood 👏🏻💘
😊🔥🔥
The Bubble Bursters lol I like that!
Hi Paul and Morgan! I love your guy's videos, and this one is wonderful as well! I hope y'all have a good day 😊
Aww thank you❤️
My only thing is when people say they’re spiritual vs. they say they’re religious are two different things. A lot of people say they’re spiritual meaning they believe in some form of a higher power but don’t care enough or want to figure out any more. If someone says they’re religious however, that’s a different story meaning they believe in whatever and will follow it. Shaun kinda sounds like he’s just saying he believes there’s something out there meaning he’s be considered spiritual.
Good insight😊
Good Job! Accurate
😊👊
I thought exactly the same thing as you guys!! Just to let you know tho Justin Baldoni is part of the Bahai faith
As someone who no longer calls myself a Christian, I watch these videos still just to see what you guys say.
I usually don’t get triggered, but when you said, “we welcome Shawn. God welcomes him.” What?!
Who do you guys really think you are? That first part says so much about how you have put yourself above others. You’re not gate keepers. You don’t get to welcome Shawn into Jesus lol. It doesn’t matter what you believe or how strongly you believe it. God has the final say and ONLY He can accept or reject someone eternally. You and Paul need to remember that you’re just giving a perspective, and your words are not law, or a ruling of judgement. Stay humble fellow humans!
I think they were just trying to say that if he ever wants to become a full on Christian,that He's welcome into the community and the God loves him. Also why don't you call yourself a Christian anymore?
Totally agree with you guys bubble bursters!! Haha jk😍 will pray for shawn mendes for him to be not just close to the truth but arrive at it by God’s grace and for good christians to be around him to help him too!! Nice video paul and morgan👍🏻❤️😆 so wise you guys
You guys are awesome and I genuinely look forward to watching your videos. It’s so refreshing to see a discerning, Christian perspective on all things pop culture and this is what the church really needs. Keep going you guys are setting a great example and God is going to do big things in your lives and bring in those connections. 🙏🏽
Aww thank you❤️🙏
Glad to be on this list as a patreon!!!! :)
Thank you!😊❤️
Justin is of the Bahai religion. So is Rainn Wilson. It’s like if you took all the religions and put them in one.
Hi guys. Thanks for sharing your thoughts. Just want to say I thoroughly enjoy hearing your comments on whatever topic you get to address on your channel. Many blessings from Brazil.
Aww that means a lot!❤️
Heyy can you guys make a video on getting baptised in the Holy Spirit, actually speaking in tongues. That would be sth different ❤️
Love from India 💕
You guys are so strong in one day I hope to be like you godly and giving tips for other Christians
🙏❤️
There was definitely joy initially and there is still joy because whether or not he is a Christian, he views Christianity in a good way and did feel like he had an experience with the God of the Bible. I definitely agree that this was a step in the right direction :)
Appreciate you sharing😊🙏
Good video I think it needed to be talked about❤
Thanks Alisha!
What’s sad is that he won’t get to the revelation of Jesus and the truth till he experiences the darkness of the enemy…. this happens because he wasn’t raised properly like most of us weren’t , into knowing god through the Bible. Maybe when he experiences fear in paranormal dream after meditating because he’s opened the portal to demons, will he ask for the truth to be revealed of Jesus. It’s sad because he’s pretty much heading into new age without even knowing and believing he is getting closer to Jesus but it’s the devil, Lucifer.. I know because I was deceived like him for like 2 years thinking I was communicating with god and angels and I was so wrong. God revealed the truth in a dream after I prayed about it and threw all new age stuff away. I never willingly would have been into if I had read into what new age is and opened the Bible to see the truth. I was mixing Jesus with new age and he did not approve.. I also believed I was free spirited, open minded and that we are all one with the same god no matter what religion etc. may Jesus open his eyes sooner than later 🙏🏼
God bless you
🙏
All we can do as Christians is to encourage him more towards Jesus, Shawn needs to find someone, ( a pastor or a practicing Christian) to help him find Jesus.
How do y’all think the Bible was physically written down and then copied? And how do y’all think we got those writings that were later translated to what we read today? God bless you both.
Keep bursting bubbles 💯 that's what salt does
Good for him, I pray he continues to search for the real truth which can be hard to do when your living the hollywood lifestyle that is so idolized
🙏
Why is the word "privilege" a problem? You thinking it's a problem to say it so much is a problem. Privilege is privilege and we should call it what it is. You should recognize yours.
Same same. Everything you said I agree. Praying for him.
😊🙏
We will be praying for him and hope He finds truth (Jesus truth).
The stuff he said after the cut part reminds me of Moses story when God performed His wonders and the others tried to mock Him. I really hope he finds Jesus truth and grows from there.
Maybe it's just me, but I honestly don't think it matters in the sense that what we think will affect said celebrity, or artist. It's up to the Christians in their actual lives, people who actually interact, and talk to them to help them know God. I think we as christians just on the internet, social media really need to stop looking up to literally anyone, and listen to our pastors, and study our bibles plain, and simple.
When I heard of the Indian music I was like 🤦 but we do need to pray for him so that he's not taken in by new age stuff and that he sincerely seeks the Lord because that's where he'll find all his answers because I remember myself having these questions and I found them in the scriptures so we need to pray for him. Thanks for being the bubble bursters keep up the good work
Amen, thanks for sharing🙏
I’m an atheist but have always been curious about why religious people gravitate towards certain religions. Is there a reason you guys are Christian and not Muslim or Jewish etc. what makes Christianity the right one in your eyes?
Hello, Christianity is not a religion but an encounter with Jesus which leads to a changed life (born again). Jesus reveals Himself through the Bible to a humble heart. As an atheist have you asked God to reveal Himself to you?
@@larevival4074So basically you experience an encounter with jesus and then that’s what draws you to Christianity? I just think so many factors are in play as to why we believe the things we believe. For example, if I were born in turkey id probably be Muslim, or if I were born in the Philippines I’d most likely be catholic. Kinda similarly to how many times children are of the same political mindset as their parents. But no I’ve never tried to seek out god or Jesus into my life, because I don’t believe that a god or Jesus exists. At least not in the way the Bible describes it.
I would love to answer this as well because it’s a great question. I have chosen Jesus Christ over any other god or religion for several reasons, but one of the main reasons is His resurrection. Christ’s resurrection validated all of the claims that He made (including that He is God). If He had not raised from the dead, my sins would not be forgiven, I would perish when I die, I would have no hope for eternal life, and I would not have the opportunity to know my Creator intimately, and live in righteousness and peace.
In knowing Christ, there are eternal blessings and benefits. God’s love for us is revealed in Him. He is a welcoming, loving Savior.
@@LilyEve100 ok how do you think we came into existence? I was raised by agnostic parents and as an adult became depressed. I cried out for God to reveal Himself if He existed and He did. The Bible came alive after that and I discovered that the Nation of Israel also confirms the existence of the God of the Bible.
Christianity is not about religion. it's a relationship with Jesus. This is the only sect of Christianity where we believe we can't save ourselves and do good works to get to Heaven. We fully rely on God and His perfect plan and we believe in Grace and that we are saved by Jesus alone
hi!
😊
Everyone please keep praying for Shawn to become Christian. He needs Jesus ❤️
God & Jesus is and are everywhere. I believe Jesus is knocking and Shaun is answering. It takes time it’s on God’s time. He was an atheist now he is turning into a believer but we all know it’s a journey
💯 pray for a revival of spirit (of God) filled & lead powerful salvations & followers of Jesus!🙏🏼
I think it’s clear that he’s searching and that he’s recognizing that he’s missing something and this life isn’t enough. It may be that God is drawing or opening him up, but what does that mean for now? He clearly has a long way to go and it may not ever come to fruition. Time will tell.
🙏🙏
sounds more just like greed. No God is opening a door to him sorry
I love what paul said when the pieces come together and boom something happens!!! adding to the end i think as i saw that i was skeptical its good to be optimistic.
I think if you do believe that he had a revelation when hearing Christian music, and then he felt the same thing with the mantras, then isn't that telling of the fact that both are hitting on the same truth, the same "homeliness"? I don't understand why you dismiss the second (being pretty disrespectuful to that religion, i felt) but keep the first. I think it's interesting that both inspired the same reaction. To me it might mean that either the two are not so different as you say they are, or that neither are completely right about God but have managed to hit that nugget of gold in their exploration of God which is what Shawn heard in those songs.
I'd encourage you to listen to this trying to learn something new rather than seeing whether he's going to get it "right" by your standards. You might be surprised at what happens when you open your listening to that possibility, I know I have been.
And yeah, being open to being wrong and to be corrected is great. I think that's a skill you still need to cater to. But i did enjoy the video!
I truly believe that he needs to surrender completely and pray the Holy Spirit would touch him and encounter him.
🙏
I agree when you speak truth straight from scripture. But it is wrapped in judgmental comments and mockery and sarcasm. Your facial expressions while being rude and disrespectful in your responses. Saying you are a "bubble burster" is a way to justify being judgmental and not showing grace. I've watched many of your videos over the last several weeks and you always speak truth from scripture, then follow with judgmental comments as though there is this "holier than thou" perspective. I am just saddened by how invalidating someone's experience can be wrapped in such a pretty package. I will be praying for whatever darkness is in my heart to come to light, and the same prayer for you both. May anything that is not like Christ be brought to light so that we can all better represent Christ
Does anyone know which maverick city song it was that made him cry?
Not sure
It was Promises 🙏. He even put it in his IG Story
So does God only speak through certain types of music or through music from only certain countries/cultures? How else is God supposed to reach Indian people except through their own music?
My interpretation was that the music (by Justin Baldoni (sp?)) Shawn (sp?) was moved by was not merely Indian music but is specifically apart of a different religion. According to another commenter here, his music is apart of the Bahai (sp?) faith. That being said I believe that Christians should be respectful of Christian worship as it exists in various cultures (ie Christians worshiping the Christian God in their own language/style of dance/music). That is alot different than saying that God is speaking to you through the music of a different faith, as Shawn was saying. I feel Paul & Morgan may have some room for improvement in this area though in that they skated over the difference between cultural music styles vs. worship of another religion, perhaps under the assumption that everyone would equate the term “mantras” with non-Christian religions, not to mention inaccurately referring to the majority religion of India (being approx 80% Hindu) as being Buddhism. I do not expect anyone to know everything about everything but Hinduism is the 3rd largest world religion and India has a population of nearly 1.4 billion people. That being said this clip of the video displays some ignorance, and might have been better fact-checked and then edited out due to the error. I feel it just detracted from their argument. My apologies for trying to clarify on their behalf, I just did not feel right glazing over your comment feeling as though this particular christian couple was saying there was anything wrong with Christians worshipping the Christian God in other languages/styles of music/etc. That would just be so wrong and unbiblical! I do not believe that is what they meant at all. Hope this helps.
2:20 😂
Haha he looks so different! 😄
@@PaulandMorgan “Hunkasaurus Rex” I replayed that more than I’m allowed to😂
Love that you guys are the bubble bursters! There is a standard...God calls us to a certain standard. You will know them by their fruits. Much love sister in Christ from South Africa 🇿🇦
I am on team bubble bursters!!!
😂😊
When they said kundalini I was like 😬😬😬 ugh. Praying his eyes will will be completely opened and that more seeds will be planted.
What do you think about jess and gabe?
I can't speak for others but I actually prefer it when you guys burst our bubbles because you're giving us the whole story not just the parts we want to hear❤ so thank you guys for that
Justin is a Bahai in his faith :)
Wow! kinda mixed on this one but....... I am confident of this..... That as the name of Jesus is lifted the Bible says he will Draw all men to himself..........My pray for Shawn Mendes would be that he would continue to seek and find this truth, which is only found in God's word, that he would dive deeper and get ahold of a fellow brother or sister in chirst someone who would take him under his/her guidance, and bring him closer to encounter the truth and knowledge of Jesus!...... As always Paul and Morgan keep up the Good work👍
🙏❤️
Tbh it’s non of ur business to go and see if someone is truly saved or not…it’s not your place to even comment on it
What Shawn is saying is that Maverick city music is no different from indian mantra. If he gets the same feeling when he listens both:(
That says something about Maverick city music I guess.
Yeah you guys move!!!!!!!!
😄
😆😆😆
I'm next to move
I suppose that when a few people hear the word God from a worldly celebrity they just pause and go all hallelujah 😂, concluding that just by considering it, it's already done, they're automatically certainly Christian and in like with God... probably to keep following the person or looking up the person?
Christians need to stop jumping out of their seats when a celebrity talks about God, I find it very immature and it reveals a bit of idolatry 🙄 We don’t need a celebrity to validate us lol. It doesn’t mean anything until you see the fruit of salvation! It’s great that Shawn has encountered God in some way, but it doesn’t mean much yet. All we can do is pray.
@Rivers absolutely it’s ok to be hopeful. But to go on about it on social media platforms and hype it up as something it’s not? That’s not ok. It doesn’t look right. And that’s what I’m seeing everywhere at the moment about Shawns’ interview. The rest of the interview wasn’t even positive as Paul and Morgan pointed out. He had the same ‘encounter’ with spiritual middle eastern music for goodness sake! Lol. My two cents on the matter… but indeed, keep praying should the Lord lead you to! 🙏🏼
if his feelings through mantras and christian music are the same, how are you able to say that one of the instances is invalid?
Pumping the breaks on here!!!!
Was he crying because he came under conviction of sin?😄
🙏
I think Shawn was trying to tell us that we were all babies so we all inherited the Good of the Lord in us and thru out time that bad is refer to as the sin. But the way I see Morgan prospect, is coming from our ancestors mistake of the very first sin that was on this Earth.
Hey lovely guys. I have a weird hypothetical question. Suppose that there was a righteous person, preaching the word of God, evangelizing with the best intentions in his heart - but unintentionally turning many people away from God. And then suppose another person, say a Hollywood producer who wants nothing but to make money and leads a terribly unwholesome lifestyle, but who incidentally produces a show that genuinely starts bringing millions of people to the word of God… Do you think these two people would be judged by their intentions? Or their ‘results’? 🤔
Neither.. judgement will be on our actions and our hearts: whether we submit our whole life (heart mind and soul) to Christ and his kingdom alone. Recognizing sin and turning away from it... there will be many that say "Lord Lord" ("good people) on judgement day but will hear "depart you worker of iniquity I knew you not" 🤷♀️
So, interesting hypothetical but I once heard it described this way ( by Keith Green I think). If you (people in general) don't desire to be in God's presence and honoring him now what makes you think when you die you'll want to spend eternity in his presence? It's a matter of the heart. To often we equate heaven as our goal: getting to heaven, I'll see my family I'll see my pets I'll play a round of golf I'll ride a harley down those streets of gold.....Heaven is not our destination holiday location...Heaven is just the place where we will be with our Savior.
Again great hypothetical, which was directed at Paul and Morgan, but it makes you think. And I hope my awnser makes you think too.
In regards to your first hypothetical:
Acts 18:24-26
24Now a Jew named Apollos, a native of Alexandria, came to Ephesus. He was an eloquent man, competent in the Scriptures. 25He had been instructed in the way of the Lord. And being fervent in spirit,d he spoke and taught accurately the things concerning Jesus, though he knew only the baptism of John. 26He began to speak boldly in the synagogue, but when Priscilla and Aquila heard him, they took him aside and explained to him the way of God more accurately.
If the person has a genuinely pure heart for the things of the kingdom of God, then God, who is good and kind and merciful, will always give an opportunity for the truth. Paul had an actual, real encounter With Christ, but here you see two people of God who heard his zeal, and shared the true gospel with him. It’s much the same way today; we just need to be more willing to speak the truth and preach the full gospel to people who are “seeking” and “close” but not quite there. We’re just not a very bold society and live in fear of offending our culture.
To answer the second hypothetical, the man has no love or desire for God. Just because his tv show led thousands and thousands of people to Christ does not get him into heaven. Unless he himself has a changed heart and turns away from his sinful lifestyle, he will be judged accordingly. Salvation is not works based. You cannot work yourself into heaven through others coming to Christ, doing good things, etc. Works (evangelism, service to others, showing hospitality, etc) are a byproduct, the fruit, and the evidence of a changed heart, and salvation is the free gift of grace from God.
A relationship with God, desiring the things of God, and putting the Kingdom of God first is what our focus should be on. Everything else just flows from that. Hope that helps and makes sense. 🥰
@@ashlynnbrasfield6181 thank you very much for taking the time to answer. This is very helpful and very interesting
@@NS-zs3sg hey, thank you for taking the time to reply :) I appreciate it, and yes it does make me think
@N S @Tehered and Tied Thank you both for your good answers guys! I just thought of something, if you will indulge me. Same hypothetical, but in stead of thinking 'how would they be judged' - If we imagine ourselves from the sideline watching these two men (and somehow knowing the mentioned consequences of their actions) I wonder if we would feel some kind of regret toward the first example. Happy that he is walking with the Lord, yet sad to see that he turns away people from God unintentionally. And at the same time feel joy for example number 2 - Feeling sad, of course, seeing how he has no relationship with God, yet relieved to see that he somehow caused thousands and thousands to seek the word of God? I wonder if you see where I am going with this? I find it hard to express myself clearly
I love your plants 😁
Yay😊
Hi, let start by saying that I like your pair. I don’t always agree with you for reasons I won’t start with here. Ok moving on; I hope you guys would try to at least put yourself out there to understand some things. Make friends of color or different religious backgrounds. The reason I say this is because in India they also have Islam and despite what the media tells us, Islam kinda is like Christianity. I would even go as far as saying that the thing that makes us different is because where we believe Jesus is the son of God. They believe Jesus is real but they also believe he was a prophet not the son of God.... now I’m saying I believe it but there is something to it. That I’m not also saying we should understand but more should know about.
Appreciate the comment 🙂
