Church Hurt
มุมมอง 1224 หลายเดือนก่อน
Church hurt. What is it, how does it happen, how do we move forward. Take a seat in The Locker Room. #podcast #church #christianity
Him using the word allow shows he has reverence knowing Gods power and that he is in control. Just like Satan had to ask God before he touched Job, Job 1:11-12, "God allowed". Everything goes through Gods hand and he allows us because he has ultimate control and power. Everything is already written, so therefore he allows it.
Merry Christmas to all and a happy new year!
What camera did you use?
The wide angle is the canon r6 mk ii. The tight is the Canon r7. My WB was significantly off lol so I had to make it look as good as it could
I watched that Lecrae episode and so TH-cam suggested this video ( which seems like that was the intent of the salacious title). The Lecrae interview seems to be taken out of context here. The message was not "Being a gay Christian." The man being interviewed seemed to be saying that his lust made him choose to live a gay life and that JESUS changed his life. He said " I didn't become Christian to sudeenly become straight... I became Christian to love Jesus." That's the first step in his journey. Let's have faith that God will do the rest. The sexuality of his lust became irrelevant to the core of the message which was to follow God's commands and serve him. It's a shame that we can't just love Jesus and pray to the Holy Spirit to guide us to change our sin without other Christians judging our progress.
Like I told somebody else, you cannot IDENTIFY with sin and Christ at the same time. Its impossible. Can you struggle and be in Christ? Yes of course. Lots of people struggle win sin from lust to lying to everything in between, but saying "I am (sin) and Christian" it doesnt work. Christians need to step up and realize that correcting wrong theology is not condemnation of man but condemnation of sin. We are called to judge righteously in a sense of keeping other Christians on the narrow path.

Let me know in the comments your process of finding the right church for you!
I remember when I thought I had all the answers and if you didn’t agree then you were wrong. And because I got these views from the Bible and believed God was revealing the truth to me, I very subtly created a god in my own image. I found a tribe of believers that agreed which served as confirmation bias. It’s wild that one can consume themselves in one theological path and not consider that it resonated with you because of the limited life experiences and subconscious needs within. “I’m right because this is what God says” but really it could just be what resonates with you and that’s just a hod created in your own image. LeCrae is getting into the nuances that each person wrestles through and when we feel we need to correct, we should make sure it’s not ego. Do you trust God to change hearts? Then let him. He doesn’t need you to tell people they’re wrong.
There is only one theological path. Jesus is the way the truth and the light. The road to salvation is narrow. These are biblical. I do believe God can and does change hearts. As believers we are also called to hold other believers accountable. It’s called righteous judgement. Read Matthew 18: 15-20 and read 1 Timothy 6: 3-5
@ i think as humans we are very good at creating simple frameworks to help us navigate the complexities of life. If we are not careful, we disregard nuances and “stand firm” on aspects that fit our bubble of interpretation without careful consideration of the nuances and how Jesus would respond and how our interpretations may be unintentionally connected to our limited perspectives. Often well intentioned but more divisive than unifying. We convince ourselves we are being loving by pointing out truth but it can be hard to discern any cognitive dissonance we may be bringing into the thought process. That’s why I think we should listen with a loving heart and be slow to speak and carefully consider those nuances.
LOOK FORWARD TO THIS
So who is the only judge for whom knows the Father? I am a Christian but I also am an Alcoholic! Great fully recovering alcoholic! Alcoholism is genetic and I was born with this genetically infused in my blood! God is my father and creator I can only identify as a Christian in this world but does not mean I am spiritual connection and no matter what I am an alcoholic and always will be as I was born created in God's image of his plan for my life in flesh I did not choose being an alcoholic I had to accept it and never forget that step one step 3 turn will and desire of my life 100% for God's will be done! I can't say being gay is not genetic born as the creator intended so love all accept all in actions that show love of acceptance that God's love his will not ours to judge our neighbor but love thy neighbor more than your self!!! God is the judge not us or you!!!
God is the only eternal judge. We are called to use righteous judgment to point back to the cross. You don’t have to accept alcoholism. You accepting it is essentially you denying Gods healing power. People forget that loving thy neighbor also means correcting thy neighbor if they’re out of line. Loving doesn’t mean accepting false theology to make somebody feel good
Your confusing God allowing things to happen, with God causing things to happen. Two different things. By denying God allowing things to happen you deny the sovereignty of God, which is a fundamental attribute of God's character. Which is in a great way to deny God.
I see what youre saying. Thats not how I was necessarily trying to put it. Essentially we make choices and God honors those choices if you will. Good or bad cause we have free will. So yes he allows things to happen but he doesnt allow things in order to show us things. He uses things we have done and works it together for good. If that makes sense
I believe what your alluding to is that God doesn't "need" to allow things to happen in order to teach us something. Which is 100% true! He can use any means as he wishes to teach. And his allowance of things is one of those means. Now as for free will, there is no such thing as choosing to do good. Man can only choose evil. Because we already made the choice in the garden of eden! Any good a man does, if that man is a saint is goodness that christ that liveth in him, doeth thru him. And if that man is not a saint it is goodness that God causes him to do by restraining the sinner and causing him to act in a way that is contrary to his depraved nature. Either way God is always the "cause" of "all" good things that occur on the earth. "To God alone be the glory"
Sounds like o boy put himself over Jesus. Normally we say “Jesus, take the wheel”. But in this case it’s Jesus take a seat.
Lecrae now isn’t the same Lecrae that made the Rebel Album.
It's called growing
I do think Lecrae did a good job with loving like Christ did, cause only Jesus can convict us (and on top of that, only through Jesus we can get to Heaven, John 14:6). But I think Lecrae didn't challenge David's sin enough. We can't identify with sin; we have sin like nature yeah, but we are a new creation in Christ. Jesus died for us and saved us. I think Lecrae should be in our prayers, and I think we should also just give him some grace, cause at the end of the day he is not perfect.
Don’t confuse love with enablement. Love is also correction. Rebuking his doctrine would still be out of love if presented correctly. Nobody is perfect and we must pray for everybody I agree
@@Theelockerroom Thanks bro
Culture over Conviction
I fully agree with you on christians shouldn't have sinful prefixes like gay or murder etc. But im going to push back on your conclusion...we KNOW we are in the era of identity politics (which the church and lecrae shouldn't be apart of). Saying imma gay Christian could mean im attracted to the same sex with abd i indulge in it while being christian or it could mean im attracted to men and struggle with it but dont indulge and i profess Christ . Based on the podcast the guy is the latter. Therefore his only error here is labelling himself struggles. Lecrae could have pushed back on that and said hey...dude you're just Christian. I dont think that constitutes Lecrae FALLING OFF THE DEEP END. that sounds like a sellout or comprimised christian. Which i think is too heavy.
In my opinion if you identify with your sin or your struggles you cannot also identify with Christ. You cannot serve 2 masters. The theology in believing that this is a possibility is wrong. If you ask me, Lecrae took this as an opportunity to stir up conflict and confusion in the christian community for likes and clicks. Which would constitute selling out. I feel as christians we need to do a better job of holding other christians accountable especially the ones with a platform and influence.
Good on u for calling stuff out. Need more content pushing christian rappers to obedience to the word.
Its sad that Lecrea doesn't challenge anything. if he did not agree he was just saying uhmm uhmmm all the time.
Sounds like former job had shoddy or bad management. If you provide a 2 week notice, then they don't acknowledge, then a few days later they decide to notify you that it's your last few minutes...
Terrible management. The supervisor had 11 people quit under her in 13 months of her employment. But they turned a blind eye because she "knew a lot"
@@Theelockerroom Or some D.E.I.-like backroom favoritism.
@@erhardtharris8727 yeah she’s the sister of a person who is very high up in the corporation
@@Theelockerroom And the story unfolds.
Lecrae been off the deep end ever since he forsook the faith, and had his meteoric rise. Don’t forget that he was part of “that world” and admitted to attending Diddy parties (a thing that I don’t believe was scrutinized deeply enough by those who claim to love and care about his soul). Ever since he returned, I gave him the benefit of the doubt and hoped he was not a double agent. You give him the benefit of the doubt but watch for the fruit and he needs to be careful because Jesus also said “woe to any of you who causes any of my children to stumble. It would be better to have an anchor tied around your neck and be thrown in the sea”. And having a guest like that confuse the struggling saints in this manner is a stumbling block. Let’s keep him and others in prayer.
Definitely need to keep him in prayer yes. You said nothing wrong
I liked the reference to Jesus being tempted with word, great connection. God bless
God bless 🙏🏽
The gospel has become so watered down that perversion and corruption of scripture has become normalized. Don’t get sucked in to the ways of the world. Stand firm in your faith. Romans 12:2
I hear what your saying but tbh u convinced me johnnys point is correct do u actually think the bible david etc would be a thing without them eating the apple?? Jesus is literally prophecy with this point of view you wouldn’t believe in prophecy cause everything is will nah it’s complicated simple
Why do we think we would know gods reasons for his actions??
But I love your channel idk you I’m subbed now NO HATE TOWARDS YOU just banter
I believe in prophecy but for example, say somebody prophecied you were going to get a new job, and that new job comes calling. It is up to YOU to make the decision to accept that job out of obedience. God never wanted evil, there was never supposed to be sin, but he used that sin and turned it for good cause he is full of grace and mercy. I appreciate your comment even if its just banter. Feel free to DM me on instagram if you have other thoughts, link in bio
@@Theelockerroom sweet as bro
Johnny Chang is full of himself, full of pride, I've tried to get with him on a live he did and he was very ignorant and manipulative
I am sorry you had that experience
This isn’t to attack just share my stance! Leave your responses in the comments!
Happy 30th Birthday Soul Brother. 🎂 Welcome To Your 30's. 💯 I'm 35, And Your 30's Will Fly By So Fast. Lol! So Enjoy Them While You Can. 🙏
Thank you! I will
@@Theelockerroom You're Welcome Anytime. 💯
apart from the emotional weight that your video carries: the video and audio quality is amazing. you really have developed as a content creator. push forward. be confident.
Thank you 🙏🏽

I heard you, I am in a similar place. I move across the country and I find myself in the wilderness once again. This wilderness period has been negative experience but a testament of my faith in God. Now I find myself trying to find that faith once again to move when God has telling me to move
Just remember... God + Nothing = Everything. He will go before you and direct your path. Continue to be in faith and continue to pray and worship because a plan God has prepared is a plan that nobody can touch!
What’s your story of stepping out on faith? Let me know in the comments!
If someone is willing to leave the faith, how rooted and grounded was their relationship with Christ? Many times people look to people to be god and get mad at God when they get hurt by humans!
