American Idol Repents!


In tonight's episode of American Idol, the contestant's repented, place their trust in Jesus Christ and became saved... Apparently after obvious controversy American idol resang Shout to the Lord WITH The word Jesus included..

"We Realized that in an effort to not offend anyone, we offended the Christians" said Nigel Lythgoe the Producer of American Idol.. "and were sorry."

"Were absolutely horrible" stated Simon Cowell

OK, so it did not happen exactly like that but tonight American Idol repented of their ways, and sang Shout to the Lord properly. Or did they?

They Did. The question needs to be asked Why? Why now? Did they realize the obvious hypocrisy of Dolly Pardon and Mariah Carey? Did they realize that Christians make a large part of their audience?

There are still problems (let's not forget the cussing and swearing of Ben Stiller afterwards, ZooLander had a real "Heart of Worship")

You see I know this places them in a catch 22, one in which the cannot escape but on stage, American Idol had the unsaved worshiping a God in which they had no relationship with. Now there may be some Christians among the contestant's, but after Tuesday's display of hedonism, there clearly are not many.

If there are Christians it still begs the question "Why did anyone who was saved willingly submit to sing the song that way in the first place?"

Anyways what can you do? We live in a very unchristian, yet highly churched society. They are happy to hear a gospel, but they shun the True Gospel.

If you don't believe me stay tuned, I am about to post some photo's and video's of people who HATE the Gospel. The pure fact that we are liar's thieves and blasphemers who have broken God's law is upsetting to the self righteous unregenerate.

As Ryan Seacrest would say stay tuned "after the break..."

*OK. I have thought about this and do agree that it is GOOD that Jesus Christ's name was mentioned on National TV. I still wish they did it in the beginning, that way it looked real and not like a cover up.

Not Christian 004 - American Idol Omit's Jesus from Shout to the Lord!

In a night full of Hedonistic, works righteousness the "Big Deal" was that Idol contestants were going to sing "Shout to the Lord" by Darlene Zschech on Tonight's two and half hour "Idol Gives Back."

The words to the actual song is this.

My Jesus, my Savior, Lord, there is none like You;
All of my days I want to praise the wonders of Your mighty love.

Instead we were treated to a universal version of the song that omitted the name of Jesus Christ.

The words to the watered down American Idol song was the following...

My Shepard, my Savior, Lord, there is none like You;
All of my days I want to praise the wonders of Your mighty love.

This is an outrage, as I know there are many Christians who actually enjoy American Idol as it is one of the last shows you can watch as a family.

This raises several questions. I think they all need Answers.

1. Did Darlene Zschech or her Record Label give Fox rights to change the Lyrics? I think Christians should demand an answer for this.

2. Should Christians continue to watch the show?

3. If any of the Christians are Idol Finalist, why did they sing knowing Jesus' name was taken out?

If Darlene Zschech wrote that song to worship the Savior of mankind, then Darlene Zschech should be outraged at this. The "Christian Label" or owners of the song should be strongly rebuked, as public as the sin was. However I doubt anything wil come from this, as Darlene is a avid supporter of Health to Wealth "preacher" Joyce Myers, and they are always strong defenders of the faith...Right Joel?

What about the line "Lord there is NONE Like you"? Doesn't making the Song universal sort of make that line void. I mean your singing a universalist version of a Song, so basically what your really saying is "lord" there ARE some like you.

So continue American Christians to sit back and let the name of Jesus Christ be omitted from this and omitted form that. We don't care... American Christians are weak and were OK with that but just imagine if Muhammad's name was taking out of a Muslim prayer or song, Imagine the outrage...

To top things off immediately after the "Worship" song, crude comic Ben Stiller came out and in what was supposed to be a funny end tot he show, started cussing and swearing to bleeps and bloops about how he missed the entire night. Way to Go.
