Who Killed Gospel Music- Rondy Long’s Personal Gripe and Truth
Originally posted: Aug. 1, 2011
Thanks to a close source, we were given this interesting statement from a man that has some insight on the gospel industry and its commercialization that trumps hip hop in many ways.
Take this as you may- for many people like himself have heavy opinions on the subject.
Note: We don’t agree with every aspect of his note but there’s much to think about as you read on.

How Gay Gospel Artists Left a Tainted Legacy- From Holy to Not At All [Part Three]
This is Part 3 which we will explore a gay gospel artist and minister and his part in starting a gay revolution in the black church by pure disobedience.
This is presumably the last part of our series: How Gay Gospel Artists Left a Tainted Legacy For Today’s Generation. We do not plan to add to this series as we feel this may complete the subject… for now. We will discuss a very important issue about how gay gospel artists emerged. We will specifically focus on one corner of the country that made a huge impact on gospel music and the gay culture in the church.

[NEW] How Gay Gospel Artists Left a Tainted Legacy for Today’s Generation [Part 2]
This is part two of this article about how gay gospel artists left a tainted legacy for our generation today. We felt the need to expand this subject especially today as gospel music has evolved in something much more than just ‘singing’. Gospel music has turned into a industry of hefty money makers and revolutionaries. Though many artists from the early 1960′s and earlier sang gospel music because they ‘love the Lord’, grew up in the church and wanted to spread the gospel, it quickly turned into a money making machine that created more than just records. The gospel music industry became a way of expressing the views of society both political and sexual. Let’s speak on the sexual part because this is what is taking over our society today through homosexuality and gay rights.

**************************************************************************************
We’ve had this weighing heavy on our hearts when it comes to gospel artists from yesteryear and the impact it has on our generation today. When we speak of our generation, we do mean for all of us living today not just for the young folk, as some may believe.

‘Joyful Noise’ Co-Star Queen Latifah Promoting Jesus or Jesus’ as a Product?
This is the very reason why Christians should have nothing to do with these Hollywood stars. If we support their music, movies and such, we are co-conspirators to their mission to:
1) Make millions from and off the church
2) Turn the church into a laughing stock and an embarrassment with our help

We do not know why this christian singer, Jennifer Knapp came out on Larry King to admit she is a lesbian, because God is not happy. He informed us in His Word that all who turned to same sex relationships will not enter into the Kingdom of heaven. So, her coming out on national television may have deceived her to think she is so free, but Lord knows, she will get the worst shock of her life when her time is up. Jennifer Knapp allegedly bragged about loving her girlfriend while being a child of God. But how is this so, when the Word of God has scriptures that oppose the gay and lesbian lifestyle? You can not be Christian and gay or even Christian and lesbian. Certain scriptures we will show you at the end of this post. However, this question applies to this particular subject, why weren’t there enough Christians to combat Jennifer Knapp’s alleged pride as a lesbian on national television? She should not have been able to go on Larry King without being reminded of these following scriptures at the end of this article.

How Gay The Sound? Gay Choir Wins Verizons GOSPEL Contest, Marvin Sapp and Shirley Caesar as Judges
We want to thank Pastor Kevin Shell for his wisdom and consistent word from God. We are going to let Pastor Kevin Shell tell you all about what happened here and we will try and contain ourselves in the midst!

Regional choirs from across the country were on hand to win up to $50,000. Grammy award winning artists CeCe Winans and Donald Lawrence served as mistress and master of ceremonies while award winners Marvin Sapp, Shirley Caesar and Israel Houghton served as judges for the competition.

[Photos]
We found some information on some gospel artists who have been performing at gay and inclusive events. If you don’t know what inclusive means its a doctrine that accepts and allegedly loves everyone including those from the homosexual community which goes against Christianity and the holy bible. Though it covers many other things, we will speak on what we mentioned to make our point.
Apparently, some of the gospel artists from back in the day have been booked for events that were sponsored for gay or inclusive purposes. We don’t know if they knew beforehand who hosted these events but they were featured on posters.

Did Shirley Caesar and Tonex’ Both Allegedly Rebel and Commit Gay Sin?
The Word of God lets us know Jesus does not like us mingling with those who oppose His commandments: ‘How can two walk together, except they agree (Amos 3:3)?’ That scripture goes for gospel artists collaborating with homosexuals. If you disagree with homosexuality, you would not desire to associate with those who do.
