Are You Christian? When Running From This Question Isn't an Option

Eternal Choices

"Choose now, cherish forever!"
A Hip-Hop Wake-Up Call About the Most Important Choice in Life
This hard-hitting hip-hop track addresses the critical moment when faith meets reality. Inspired by the viral interaction between Pastor David Lynn and IShowSpeed, where a simple question about faith led to a telling response, "Eternal Choices" dives deep into the consequences of avoiding life's most important decision.

The song challenges listeners, particularly young people influenced by fame and success, to confront their relationship with Christ honestly. Through powerful lyrics and dynamic delivery, it addresses the urgency of choosing Christ over worldly pursuits, reminding us that time for making this crucial decision is limited.

Drawing from Dr. Lynn's direct approach in street ministry, the track maintains his straightforward style while adding a musical dimension that speaks to today's youth. It's not just a song – it's a wake-up call for a generation choosing between eternal life and temporary pleasures.

About Lionheart Revival:

We are a unique musical project dedicated to sharing powerful spiritual messages through diverse genres of music. Our mission is to make biblical truths accessible and relatable to people from all walks of life, including those who might not typically engage with religious content. We create everything from rock and hip-hop to visual biblical oratorios, always aiming to inspire and awaken the soul. Our work is crucial to crafting personalized spiritual messages for influential individuals. By connecting faith with familiar musical styles and addressing people directly, we can plant spiritual awareness and potentially ignite a deeper exploration of life's greater purpose.

Why IShowSpeed?

IShowSpeed comes from a Christian background, with his father being a believer. Recently, a powerful moment occurred when street preacher Pastor David Lynn encountered the young blogger who was rushing to meet his idol, Ronaldo. When Pastor Lynn asked him a simple question - "Are you a Christian?" - Speed chose to run away rather than answer. This brief but telling interaction inspired us to create this song, incorporating Pastor Lynn's words into a musical message that speaks to the heart of this generation's struggle with faith.

The Heart Behind the Message

Our hearts burn for young influencers like IShowSpeed to discover that there are treasures far more precious than worldly success. While a preacher's words might seem irrelevant to them now, we recognize these moments as God knocking on their hearts. With his enormous influence over young minds, Speed could become a powerful vessel for God's purpose, trading temporary fame for eternal riches - the treasures of Heaven.

This song serves as a reminder not only to Speed but to his millions of followers and anyone with a Christian background who might have drifted from faith or become ashamed of Christ. We live in a world where everything temporal fades, but eternity awaits each of us. The choice of where we'll spend that eternity is made right here, on Earth.

Our deepest prayer for IShowSpeed is that the Lord would illuminate his heart and lead him to a genuine encounter with Jesus Christ. We long for the day when he might declare to his vast audience, "Now I am a born-again Christian." His influence and a genuine relationship with Christ could impact millions of young lives for eternity.

Lyrics

Hey you, yeah you with the Christian dad
Got a question for you, hope you don't get mad

You say you're a Christian, but what does that mean?
Repenting from sin or just living a dream?
Sexual immorality, chasing the fame
Taking up your cross or just playing a game?
Money ain't the problem, it's how you get paid
Selling out your soul for a life that'll fade
Hell's waiting for those who refuse to turn
Time's running out, when will you learn?

Are you afraid to answer? You know I speak true
Loving this world more than the One who made you
Fame, cash, and followers, that's your god now
But in hell, they'll all disappear, here's how:

Jesus said repent or you'll surely perish
Truth hits hard, makes you feel embarrassed
Can't answer if you're Christian? That's telling
Glorifying sin while your soul you're selling
Your dad's a believer, you know what I'm asking
Light came to the world, but in darkness you're basking
Don't choose the shadows, let God's light shine through
Don't trade your soul, eternity's coming for you

Are you afraid to answer? You know I speak true
Loving this world more than the One who made you
Fame, cash, and followers, that's your god now
But in hell, they'll all disappear, here's how:

What can you offer in exchange for your soul?
Which idol, which star is worth eternal toll?
Young ones listening, run to Jesus fast
Millions in the bank won't make your life last

You think I'm nobody to be preaching to you
But I'm here to warn you, make your heart true
It's not about being cool, it's about being saved
If you can't confess Christ, you're spiritually enslaved
Who has the Son has the Father, that's real
Reject the Son, and from God you'll steal
Your truth ain't the Truth, there's only One way
Christ is coming soon, be ready that day

Rich or poor, young or old, we'll all stand
Before the throne, life's deeds in God's hand
So make your choice now, while you still breathe
Eternity's waiting, what will you believe?
