all right welcome back to the show we're going to do some reaction videos yeah i have not seen

these the ant man is with me we're sitting here and um we're gonna do we're gonna try something new

i am on i'm completely unprepped for this okay well you've heard you've probably heard by

now because it's been now a couple of weeks since the devil wards about forest frank uh the day i believe it was the day of or the day before saying

i'm not going to the devil words i'll play the video here it is as christians it's hard to know

where the line in the sand is between being in the world and not of the world and as as a Christian artist, you know, I dress kind of like the world. I kind of look like the world. My music can kind of sound like the world. So where's the line in the sand drawn? And I'm convicted personally that a line that I can draw is that I will not receive a trophy for something that is from Jesus and for Jesus. And I was wrestling with this last

year. I even said that on stage at the Dove Awards. I said, I'm still struggling with the concept of receiving this award, but all glory to Jesus. Every name will fade away, including mine, except for one name. But I feel a conviction to go even a step further and say, I don't know if I even want to step on the stage. I don't know if I want to step in the room. And so I have decided to take a

stance of non-participation. a step further and say, I don't know if I even want to step on the stage. I don't know if I want to step in the room.

And so I have decided to take a stance of non-participation.

I will not be attending the doves or the Grammys.

I hope to be an example to the youth that the trophy is our salvation.

The trophy is that my name is listed in the book of life and I get to have eternal life. What good is a piece

of metal going to do compared to that? Okay. So we've we've talked about it. Hey, did you see that?

But we haven't had a discussion about thoughts on that video. What's your immediate thought?

Well, um, okay, a couple, couple things. Let me just, let me address the last thing that he said

just because it's important. Um, the treasure would not be our salvation or that our names were

written in the Lamb's Book of Life. That the treasure would be Christ. Christ. Yes.

The treasure hidden in the field that a man found and covered up and in his joy, he goes and

sells all that he has and buys that field.

He is the treasure.

He is, he is the goal.

He is what we, what we seek.
