@TheJohnOlonade: “But sir, does this extend to secular artists that sing pure lyrics and nothing lewd or indecent. E.g Johnny Drille?”

Joshua Mike bamiloye replied: “Good question, but What happens if Johnny Drille sings in between performances from Rema and the other ones in the record Label?”

@obareengy: “They’re Coming For Youuuuu, You Want To Touch Their Treasure.”

@Ngobabeofficial: “True as soon as I became born again feeding my spirit man and walking with Christ my urge for these songs just vanished. I can’t explain how it happened up till today.”

@SonMaskill: “Can I go for beautiful Nubia, asa, timi dakolo, johnny drill, darey art alade?…. I Wana mention waje and banky w buh they do gospel sometimes too.”

@abjaynue: “I agree with you. Because in such the musicians in those shows insult God and Christianity by their doings…”

@adoptedholdings: “Should any Christian argue this??? Don’t be unequally yoked with unbelievers a show where immorality and drugs are promoted and you as a Christian you don’t see wrong about it?? Come out among and be separated. There is no argument here.”

@fridayokafor: “Clearly the absence of the Holy Spirit is the reason those believers go for such show “unbelieving believers” “having the form of Godliness but denying the power thereof” Ephesians 1:17-19 is my prayers for them till all about them becomes Christ.”

@Oluwatoyin21164: “I agree, but you don’t have to mention secular artistes names to buttress your point. Just secular artistes and everyone get what you are driving at.”

@Chizzyon: “Exactly. Let me also add, if you are a true Christian, you will not also participate in the traditions of men. Traditions that happen during burial ceremonies, festivals and the likes. I don’t know how we hold on to traditions and still believe we can hold on to Jesus. Impossible.”
