I was encouraged and lifted up by his testimony. I have slipped back into the gay lifestyle but I pray that I will overcome by the power of the Holy Ghost. God Bless this brother!

When they sinned all human kind was marred by that transgression. We are born in the image of Adam. Sinful by nature. Jesus is called the last Adam in scripture. He came to accomplish what Adam did not in his humanity. Christ Jesus came in the likeness of sinfulful flesh to give us victory over Adam's nature and live according to GOD's nature via the Holy Spirit; hence being born again. It is not really biblically correct to say we are all born in the image of GOD. As far as being born in the image of GOD: Adam and Eve were created in the image of GOD.

This subject is know longer in the closet. If you look around the world today, it is so out in the open with the way people walk, talk, and carry themselves, it is almost like some people think that it is the style or new way to be. I am 37 years old and I remember when Homosexuality was hidden, but now a lot of young people are displaying it as if it is a gang....Mr. J-Elijah couldn't have started this movement at a better time, it is time to put the truth out so that the ones who need it or are looking for a way out can now have some direction. Some people don't know the way out and my dear friend Mr. J-Elijah has blessed this generation with his message to direct them in the way that they should go......God, Please put a blanket of your love around him to secure a place in this sinful world for him and his ministry/poetry in Jesus name I pray amen.

Like Jesus we must make ourselves of no reputation. Testimonies are not intended to bring us any glory or reputation,but to glorify the One who gave us our freedom. He died for that. Until the day I will gladly tell the whole wide world that Jesus loved me out of homosexuality and guided me into holiness. Whether that brings me suffering or joy, fullness or destitution, I will do it for his glory because he purchased me with his own blood. Its an age old testimony. I once was blind, but now I see. Lets all break the silence and the shame. Do it for him and not yourself. NICK, thats the most powerful part of that interview. Like Jesus we must make ourselves of no reputation.

I am just stepping out of the lifestyle and thought it would be impossible but after meeting brothers such as myself I know it can be done. My brother (J.Elijah) continues to encourage me. Since our first meeting I have been intrigued of his story. After spending one on one time together I felt highly favored of God that I could meet such an individual. 2nd of all I understand that there are those who feel that they were born gay or born in the image of God and he made you to be that way. I just want you to know that the word tells us that we "must be born again". to be truly in his image and likeness. Being a Christian or claiming salvation is a wonderful thing but we also forget the word of the Lord that says "be ye holy for I am holy". I don't have 10 years but working on it. Going without inordinate thoughts 10 days is a miracle. Unnatural affections is something that can have such a stronghold on you that you begin to think that it is ok to have these emotions. You begin to act on them, live in them, and eventually die in the confusion of them. The "life" causes death like any other sin it causes death (no sin greater than the other). Physical death, emotional death, and unfortunately spiritual death. God speaks to us that he might get us to return to him. I will be transparent for a moment and you can use this against me or learn from it. I have no problem telling where I have been for I am not ashamed of the deliverance that God is doing and has done in my life. One night I was with one of the dudes that I would regularly meet at the adult porn store and I was getting ready to perform oral sex on him. Just when I was starting to go through the sinful motions the Lord spoke to me and said. "You will get on your knees for any other man but me!?!". Unsaved at the time I got up from my knees gathered myself together and RAN out of that place. "The day that you hear my voice harden not your heart". God is never pleased with sin no matter what it is. Sin displeases God please turn away from sin and turn to him-he will LOVE YOU TO YOUR DELIVERANCE! He is doing it for me! God Bless You Pastor Foster. Much Love my brother J-Elijah-can't wait til we see each other again "2 guys out on the town" really blessed me man! 1st of all Hallelujah for the 10 yrs my brother.

Not sure where you got that idea from. God gave his Son as a sacrifice for all sin. So for any person who doesnt want to be homosexual, they price has been paid already. I dont understand the argument about why would anyone want to be gay knowing the so called hate they would face? If thats the only reason, change it. Funny how homosexuals and their allies always toss the hate card on the table, but cant see that rejection of Christ is hate.

I disagree that homosexuality is a sin. God made all of us in his image and that includes gay people. He did not create us to hate ourselves for being who we are. Why live a desolate life for no reason other than that others say it's wrong and you have come to believe it of yourself? Wouldn't God want us to live a happy and fulfilling life with someone we love and who loves us no matter if it's the same sex? That's my belief and I hope one day you can believe it too.

I dont think J-Elijah uses "hip hop" like the ones who use music. His is more spoken word poetry with a urban feel. I dont know much about hip hop, but its certainly not what I envision hip hop to be. Maybe he can explain it more but his relating it (what he does) to biblical poetry (ala Psalms) is spot on.
