Jesus Freaks

=Ancient-Hoofbeats:iconAncient-Hoofbeats: reports, May 28, 2008
This is a special feature for all of the Christians out there. The world says we're crazy and maybe we are, but at least we're crazy for a good reason with a solid foundation.
And, folks, let me tell you something: We live out loud, we live for Christ, and we live to spread God's love.
I understand fully why people don't generally do features involving religion, but there's some awesome religious art out there, and it deserves to be featured.
This article is not meant to offend anyone and is simply here to reach out to a different crowd of people.
Enjoy :)

~xXBekaXx said something that sums up why we live the way we do in her art piece "It's because we're living for something greater than impressing our friends and being popular."
She's right--as Christians, we don't live for popularity or for the "fake gold" of this world, we're living for eternal life, for the One who created us; we're living for Jesus Christ.

Matthew 10:28 "Do not be afraid of those who kill the body but cannot kill the soul. Rather, be afraid of the One who can destroy both soul and body in hell." Christians reach out across the globe, despite possible consequences like injury and death.
Even as we reach out, we should still remember to remain respectful of other religions out there. We may not necessarily like these religions, but one thing DeviantART has taught me is that respect of your fellow deviants reaches farther than heated religious debates. So, next time you come across a religion or belief system you don't understand: don't just turn your back or get angry at the deviant...Ask more about it and listen with an open mind.

"Jesus Freak" by DC Talk
[What will people think
When they hear that I'm a Jesus Freak?
What will people do
When they find that's it's true?]

Separated, I cut myself clean
From a past that comes back in my darkest of dreams
Been apprehended by a spiritual force
And a grace that replaced all the me I've divorced

I saw a man with tat on his big fat belly
It wiggled around like marmalade jelly
It took me a while to catch what it said
Cause I had to match the rhythm
Of his belly with my head
'Jesus Saves' is what it raved in a typical tattoo green
He stood on a box in the middle of the city
And claimed he had a dream

(chorus)
What will people think
When they hear that I'm a Jesus freak
What will people do when they find that it's true
I don't really care if they label me a Jesus freak
There ain't no disguising the truth

Kamikaze, my death is gain
I've been marked by my Maker
A peculiar display
The high and lofty, they see me as weak
Cause I won't live and die for the power they seek

There was a man from the desert with naps in his head
The sand that he walked was also his bed
The words that he spoke made the people assume
There wasn't too much left in the upper room
With skins on his back and hair on his face
They thought he was strange by the locusts he ate
The Pharisees tripped when they heard him speak
Until the king took the head of this Jesus freak

(repeat chorus 2x)

People say I'm strange, does it make me a stranger
That my best friend was born in a manger
People say I'm strange, does it make me a stranger
That my best friend was born in a manger

(repeat chorus 2x)

What will people think
[What will people think]
What will people do
[What will people do]
I don't really care
[What else can I say]
There ain't no disguising the truth
[Jesus is the way]

oh and I'm proud to be a Jesus Freak --I'm a rebel against society, through my own club *Hero-Rebellion-Club.

"The words "Jesus Freaks" were first coined in the late sixties, when hippies became part of a new revival, the Jesus Movement. It was then when music, poetry, and an open expression for Jesus Christ turned a new generation on to God. It merged rock and roll with the Gospel message, a wave we're still riding today known as contemporary Christian Music. It infused the Church with the arts. It shook up conventional worship. And, due to its "in your face" approach, it had a backlash. The rest of the world called these over-zealous young people "Jesus Freaks" as a derogatory term. But decades later a new generation is embracing that same passion for expression.

Being a Jesus Freak is having a passionate heart for Jesus, a willingness to extend that passion into all areas of life, be it poetry, music, art, or the hard choices made at life's crossroads. The linage of Jesus Freaks actually extends much further back into history than the sixties. Many devoted followers through the centuries gave a new definition to the word "commitment" when they put their homes, their families and even the lives on the line. Their love for Jesus was bigger than life itself. When I read their stories, I can't help but think of my own choices, my own commitments, and how much I owe to those courageous individuals.

Jesus Freaks are more than hippie kids and rock and roll. They are dedicated followers of Jesus Christ who place His name above any other need or desire. And as a Jesus Freak, I stand with thousands of martyrs around the world today who still face persecution because Jesus means more to them than their own lives or comfort.
