You seem to be the one spouting rubbish. All the elites are ANTI-TRUMP. And no one has given you the right or authority to question another's salvation. This is solely God's prerogative.If no one else will say it, I will say it . RUBBISH! The grooming of people to accept Kanye West surfaced during the presidential "election" I say selection placement by the elites of Trump.

Mother Miryam is the seal over our hearts and arm just as she is over Christ's heart and was the hand which guided him by the arm as he grew in her guidance in full Wisdom... She is the SEAL of authentic love of Christ.
The human child God used at Christ's birth was undoubtedly a good person. One to be respected, but never worshiped.
John 12:48
Well, quite a few have... and many have failed to stay the course. Unfortunately, they face more resistance and temptation than most of us can even imagine. They need our prayers more than we hope for their influence. Yet it often seems to be a spectacle of glee for many of us if they fail. We leap to our feet, waving flags and hollering: "Ah Ha! We knew it all along... they never were a Christian, and their failure is proof!"Kanye may not be the sharpest crayon in the box, but I believe his conversion to be genuine.
now just imagine what would happen if a few more Hollywood types did the same thing and followed suit with Kanye and proclaimed their Love of the Gospel? That would be amazing.

I'm not a rap fan, but for those aware, Kanye used to be a very carnal rapper, but turned to Christ a few months ago, and has recently released a Christian rap album called "Jesus is King."
I just watched a facebook video by Martyn Illes I'm not sure if I spelt his name right, but if you know the Australian Christian Lobby you most likely have heard of him, anyway he goes on to read Kanye's lyrics from the new album. And the lyrics are totally clean, and very biblically, Jesus centered and what's amazing is several of his new gospel rap songs are hitting the top 50 songs, top 100 on the music charts right around the world, and his Gospel album currently holds no. 1 position on the Aussie ARIA charts.
So the question is what happens from here? Do other famous singers and musicians follow? Could it temporarily change the direction of mainstream music for the next 10 years? How does this go onto influence Gen Y and Gen Z? Because this genre is massive for those generations.
It is sad he was treated that way. So many "secular" songs have Jesus right in the middle of them.... if you are listening with your heart.I recall in the 70s when BJ Thomas recorded at least one Christian album that was well received. At a concert he put on in Jacksonville, he was preceded by Andre Crouch whose music everyone knew. We were well stirred by the time BJ Thomas walked on stage, anticipating more praise and worship to follow.
To our amazement, BJ opened with Hooked on a Feeling. Then, Raindrops Keep Falling on My Head. It completely quenched the Spirit. So disappointed in BJ's lack of knowledge regarding the anointing, the crowd loudly chanted Jesus, Jesus, Jesus, Jesus, even while he was trying to sing his secular material.
This was a common occurrence during his tour, we discovered, which angered him. Even at the concert I attended, he stopped singing, walked off stage, came back, and told everyone that it was his show and he would lead it his way. Again, the crowd began to chant Jesus, Jesus, Jesus! That caused him to set aside all his secular material and sing only his Christian material.
I hope this is never the case for Kanye West. Learning early what is meant by quenching the Spirit is very important.
