All their rhymes mean nothing now. ? have mercy.
You still breathing though, so you don't even know if ? truly exists...you saying Biggie came back and dropped a freestyle telling you about ? ? lol
I do know that ? exists from personal experience and personal revelation. Only fools deny the existence of ? .
My point in the previous post was that all those who die understand completely who is the only sovereign, true, and omnipotent King of the universe. -

Grammy board? ? giving out BET and MTV awards?I think ? like Jay-z know religion has questions that can't be answered, and they play on that to keep people talking. Its like free publicity. Same as all that Illuminati ? . They do that ? so u pay attention to all their music and people eat it up.
Look @ the cover art for WTT. Cmon son. Its blatant. Im not religious so the ? dont bother me.
What u think he meant "? all these fairytales"? he talkin about Biblical stories that are basically myths.
What was the Watch The Throne album cover about?
Here u go trollin. U misreadin my post. Im not advocating for one side or another, im just pointing out the intent.
I could give a ? who u thank @ an award show. But i still notice the change.
As for the cover art on watch the throne, i take it as Jay n Ye making fun of Christianity cuz (as stated before) its the safest religion to attack.
You didn't answer my question. What was the album cover about? What on that metallic ass cover says "roflmaoz @ christians teehehehe"?
Baphomet is on the cover.
Even if this stupid ? was true, what purpose does it serve? I mean, if people are seriously deserting their religious beliefs and foundation simply because of an album cover's ability to be interpreted in multiple ways, they were weak as ? to begin with and would have "lost their faith/religion" anyway...you CHOOSE to not believe in ? or they don't...can't nobody take your beliefs away from you no matter how many times you see Jay-Z pop an Ace of Spades bottle open or see Kanye in a leather dress
He asked a question I answered it. ? said that those who lose their faith in Him (for whatever reason) did so because they were made manifest that they were never really true believers to begin with.
"They went out from us, but they did not really belong to us. For if they had belonged to us, they would have remained with us; but their going showed that none of them belonged to us." 1 John 2:19
Also, in the last days ? said that before Christ returns 2 things must come to pass before that glorious day happens.
1. Is the forsaking of the faith i.e. apostasy
2. Is the revealing of the antichrist.
"1Now we beseech you, brethren, by the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, and by our gathering together unto him, 2That ye be not soon shaken in mind, or be troubled, neither by spirit, nor by word, nor by letter as from us, as that the day of Christ is at hand. 3Let no man deceive you by any means: for that day shall not come, except there come a falling away first, and that man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition;" 2 Thessalonians 2:1-3
So people denying the faith or losing their faith in Christ only confirms what ? said would happen anyways. Prophecy is being fulfilled. Amen. -
yo i got a lot of religious family members dat "last days" ? has been thrown around way too much eva since 06 let ? live man lol

Lol @ these comments.
You got a ? ngga singin 'What's a ? to a non-believer' and yall bat not 1 eye?
lol Like i said...i can only worry about my own path, but i be damned if i dont see whats goin on
Since when was music always done from a 1st person perspective? ? keep dropping Jay's name and his songs when he's said multiple times he believes in ? ...even addresses it in Decoded where he states many times he believes in ?
Lmao Gtfoh with that copout
If Jay can simultaneously believe in ? but then say the ? he says, that's him. It all comes back to my point on not worrying about anyone else's path, but I WILL ACKNOWLEGDE WHAT I SEE.
Mind you, we not talkin rappers rapping about sin, b/c we all sinners- I'm talkin specifically about blasphemy

I wasn't saying that death is the only way to know for sure that ? exists. I was saying that once somebody dies, whether they were an atheist, agnostic, or believer, the reality of ? will be made known to all. For those who believed they will receive the welcome that they knew was waiting for them all along, and for those who didn't well their hope, expectation, and desire will perish.
As for me I can name you 3 reasons why I know that ? exists:
1. He saved me from certain death. When that happened he manifested Himself to me in a way that only ? can.
2. Since the day that i was saved, I walk in constant communion and fellowship with Him. Day in and day out ? confirms to me that He exists and that He rewards those who diligently seek Him.
3. The resurrection of Jesus Christ. The only one who conquered death and the grave forever, is the only who has given me new life in Him. Because He did what He did, death no longer has a sting to it. It's only a comma for the believer, not a period. Amen! -

Dont insult my intelligence with that 'artistic expression' ?
So you're discussing the subject of religion in music, which is an art, but don't want to acknowledge that at times that very art is simply an expression of a thought or an idea...not a belief you may have, but an idea sparked by anything? That's not a good way to debate...Ask any artist, writer, painter, musician, etc...ANYTHING can spark a creative moment...from a simple word said to a random ass thought...rappers, the good ones, at the end of the day are writers...so any random convo can spark a song/lyric idea...doesn't mean what they write or record is what they believe, but sometimes you write ? not from your own perspective...saying that isn't a cop out, it's an truthful statement that not every writer is writing solely from their own experiences or thoughts...you grab ideas and concepts from all over...especially once you start traveling, studying, and being introduced to different cultures and schools of thought...
And for you, and some other posters to say you believe in ? , yet be so judgmental, dismissive, and downright insulting to those who either don't share your beliefs or questions them, it easily opens you up to being criticized as to how closely you're following the very beliefs you get on others for rejecting. Isn't ? about loving, unity, and togetherness? This thread got folks who say they believe in ? behaving and speaking in a very ungodly way to defend their beliefs...that's hypocrisy -
Cats would rather LOOK for reasons to excuse the behavior, than to accept what these people (Kanye, Jay, etc.) are telling you in plain english, broad day.
"When a man shows you who he is, believe him"

A proper perspective is needed my brother. Blackrain was right. The last days have been around since the resurrection of Jesus Christ. In the eyes of ? 1 day is like a thousand years, and a thousand years is like 1 day. So if we have the mind of Christ dwelling in is, we understand that the fulfillment of Gods plan and purpose for humanity is almost here. The resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead highlighted that fact. The resurrection fulfilled the promise ? gave to mankind in the Garden of Eden, when He judged satan and told Him that a Savior was coming to crush his head. Thus, the only thing left now is to usher in Gods kingdom which will be consummated at the 2nd coming of Jesus Christ. Hallelujah! -

"For as he thinketh in his heart, so is he." Proverbs 23:7
The tongue reveals who a person truly is. What we say is a reflection of who we really are.
"But those things which proceed out of the mouth come forth from the heart; and they defile the man. 19For out of the heart proceed evil thoughts, murders, adulteries, fornications, thefts, false witness, blasphemies." Matthew 15:18-19
The King of the Universe, Jesus Christ, just said in the above passage of scripture that "blasphemies" come out of the heart. -

DoUwant2go2Heaven? those verse don't mean anything. -
"I don't know where it started. I don't know where it came from. I really think it's really silly.

My whole thing is, if you going to get on people for not believing in ? and pick a person as the symbol to represent, don't keep picking a person who openly states they believe in ? and got video evidence of them saying it multiple times lol...? makes no sense and just weakens any real argument that can be made...just opens you up to being criticized more for being blatantly wrong -

? outta here with that ? .
1. Well there is any enemy of our souls who masquerades as an angel of light. He is called the prince of the power of the air aka the ? of this world aka the serpent aka the devil aka Satan. Behind all false religion is the enemy of our souls. He desires to be like ? and thus he imitates ? . His power is beyond human comprehension or understanding, but for those who believe in the true and living ? , the Creator of all things both visible and invisible, Satan is a defeated foe. Jesus Christ made a mockery of Satan on Calvary 2,000 years ago. His death, burial, and resurrection trampled upon the serpent like a human tramples upon an ant.
The proof that ? lives is clearly evident to all of mankind, but the problem is we don't want to know the real truth, thus we construct gods of our own imagination that fit into the schema of our own designs, demands, and desires. Romans chapter 1 would be a good chapter for you to read my friend.
2. Yes, prophecy is being fulfilled. But the fire hasn't been lit like it's going to get lit very soon. That's when the true believers will be made manifest, when death is chosen over life. Amen.

I can't get into religion too my friend. It's not about religion to me, it's about a living, thriving, and personal relationship with the King of the Universe, Jesus Christ. That's deeper than religion my brother. That's communion and fellowship with the maker of everything we see and don't see. Fellowship with the King transcends religion my brother. It penetrates the deepest crevices of my soul. It strikes the very being of who I am. ? speaks to me daily my brother and words can never describe what a joy it is to be at peace with ? . Hallelujah!

I mean, if people are seriously deserting their religious beliefs and foundation simply because of an album cover's ability to be interpreted in multiple ways, they were weak as ? to begin with and would have "lost their faith/religion" anyway...you CHOOSE to not believe in ? or they don't...can't nobody take your beliefs away from you no matter how many times you see Jay-Z pop an Ace of Spades bottle open or see Kanye in a leather dress
cosignature. The fact that this topic is even up for discussion is mind boggling to me. Are people really that damn sensitive & gullible? Is it really that damn serious? At the end of the day, people will have to answer for their own choices and beliefs......beliefs in which there is no definitive truth on either side of the argument.....only faith and theories. At the end of the day, if there is a higher being who has a problem w/ blasphemous imagery, I'm sure he/she/it will handle it accordingly. Who allows an entertainer to influence & dictate their personal beliefs anyway? ? wreaks of weak mindedness. No ? are given about what Jay does/believes. Less ? are given about what Kanye does/believes. Either you enjoy their music or you don't. They're here for entertainment and that's where it ends. The problem has less to do w/ them and more to do w/ the people who can't differentiate between real life and entertainment.......the sheeple who follow every popular gimic and trend......the people who have a brain but would rather let others think for them. If artistic audio/video imagery influences people that much, maybe we should ban it for the good of the human race. Obviously some people can't handle it.
