Controversy Preacher or Sinner

I seem to think that prince has a struggle like we all do.we chose 2 want 2 please the flesh and God at the sametime however it is impossible 2 doserve 2 Masters.Even though I am a prince fan I have struggled as well with his fomat of preaching the his so called Gospel even though I do not suscribe to JW teaching I do say amen to truth. Prince has Preached is most of his music about salvation I can remember that when i was very young Prince had a Accaplla version of the second Coming he and the band would do. and the breakout with a song called Sexuality? and I'm like huh?

Maybe I've been listeneing to Prince for too long, but I don't think sex is a sin, so why is it that people think Prince can't serve his God and sing about sex too? I hear so many people say He's still 'Dirty' and 'Nasty', I say it ain't nasty unless you don't wash it! If Prince wants to sing about Love and God and Making love--Why Not?? eek biggrin The Physical love between a man and woman is beautiful.

Just think, If everyones' thoughts played like a video screen on our foreheads, how we could positively or negatively affect the people around us. What about Prince is any different than someone that conceals their thoughts? As a man thinketh,...So is he...The Bible teaches. Sex isn't necessarily love, however, I'm sure Love was in the thoughts of the creator when he said to Adam and Eve, "Be fruitful and multiply." I pray that people procreate lovingly, because divorce is sad for children.

Prince has toned down the sexual messages in his songs considerably these days. I think it has a lot to do with getting older and seeing things in a different light. When he was younger and the hormones were raging he was fascinated with sex, just like the rest of us sinners. Prince just seemed to be a little bit more outspoken when it came to sex, than the average person. There is nothing wrong with that and I don't think it contradicted his belief in God in any way.
love the one who is Love!

Selling 'sex' is xploitation. Which includes of course scantily clad dancers and suggestive imagery.
