@AALJ83 There’s a saying in Latin: “Damnant quod non inteligunt.” It means, “they condemn what they do not understand. Very fitting for the subject you speak of. Many a Christian tend to base their spiritual worldview solely on what they’re used to. It’s sad, and I pray God help us all to see what He sees in all these things. That we can rejoice in the things He delights in, rather than calling what he deemed clean unclean.
I walked into a store one day and I saw Lecrae’s Real Talk album, my bro and I laughed because there were so many copies on the shelf. “He must not be all that good” we said. We bought the CD out of pity and we weren’t laughing anymore. Now years later I’m thanking God for Lecrae and his message..
Hahaha that is amazing. I just watched the other video about the custom shoes and was so discouraged because I thought it was so worldly and unlike ReachRecords.
@01Tim115
I figured, it just worried me after I saw a lot of people saying it lol
@cbaby74 Obviously, I was only kidding.
I love how he burned the Nikes. It kinda represents burning away materialism and vanity. It’s like immediately you’re in awe by a pair of shoes cuz they’re so fresh. But then he’s like “Oh you like these huh? Watch me burn them.” LOVE that!!! In the end all of those material things fade away and the only thing that matters is your relationship with God
@01Tim115
He obviously doused them with some Lighter Fluid…
@LUKENINE23
LOL!!!
I think he build it up perfectly, I remember all the commotion around the vid. in which the customs were made.
now burning the to show how little it all means, is a strong statement.
go to pastor-comics.blogspot.com to see a parody on this…
its about idols. Putting God first. What are we holding on to in our hearts that gets in the way of our walk with Christ?
@unashamedbeliever390 It was no stupid thing. I do it all the time, but using another strategy: NOT BUYING IT!
@officialchristiantv
You americans are so dramatic. Burning stuff? Do you even know how expensive that stuff is? Made my stomach glurg.
@iMovementvideo What if he meant to mean that the shoes represent christian life (like it says on reach records. com) because of the logo? And if you listen to what lecrae is saying he could be playing the role of someone who doesn’t have God because of him burning the shoes that represent perhaps not materials but rehabilitation? Why else would he pose in the skull suit? Maybe the idolism is in choosing to burn the shoes. Just a thought, but it don’t matter as long as I get this album!
Love the message! I posted it on my facebook!!!
wow if you click to audofier (dot) com you’ll find the fastest 256k mp3 download site to get this song.
DANG THOSE NIKES ARE SUPER FLAMMABLE…. BUT SO ARE OUR IDOLS!!!
I LOVE HOW HE PROMOTED THEM ON THEIR SITE AND IT ALL WAS FOR THE PURPOSE OF THE MESSAGE… CHRIST ALONE!!!!! FEEL THE BURN!!
Oh snap! He lit the custom sneaks on fire! But im guessing that was the point of hte video. Letting go of worldy possessions or “idols”
@Ampliphydesylence…yes it would lol
@iMovementvideo That is so true man! This video made me think a lot. And it’s just a short promo! After I watched it, I started thinking about what I valued the most, and it made me so sad. In my mind I compared the amount of time I spent playing video games to the time I spend with God, and it was sad. That very day, I prayed, I went down stairs picked up MW2 and Battlefield BC2 game and smashed them in my backyard. Some people might say that its was a stupid move, but I say it was all worth it
