God Knows He Tried…

Rap music at its best!
Are you familiar with Shai Linne? You should be. Shai Linne does with rap what Christians should do with rap – use it for the proclamation of the Gospel and the glory of Christ. Rap at its best takes the language and truths of Scripture and the theology of the Church and puts it in lyrical form. It should seek to communicate truth without overshadowing it with frivolity. Shai Linne accomplishes this well. And no where does he do it any better than in the song Mission Accomplished. Shai takes the biblical, historical, and unfortunately sometimes controversial doctrine of Particular Redemption and sets it in our ears with such clarity and creativity that one is hard pressed to disagree. If you never understood this glorious truth, here is a marvelous encouragement.
If you have not heard it before, listen to it now. If you have heard it, then do what I do and listen again.
