GAY MARRIAGES INTERRUPT GRAMMYS’ UNIVERSAL REACH
By Christian Toto | breitbart.com
For one night, an awards show understood what it meant to appeal to the masses. And then the 2014 Grammy Awards fired off a culture war missile aimed at those who believe in a traditional definition of marriage.
While the Oscars routinely go political and the VMAs pull out all the shock stops, the annual Grammys telecast eschews overtly dividing moments. Assuming you don’t mind musical genre mashups worth rubbernecking over.
Tonight, LL Cool J emceed another Grammys telecast aimed at the widest audience possible until rappers Macklemore and Ryan Lewis sang Same Love while 33 couples–both straight and gay–got married.
“This song is a love song not for some of us, but for all of us,” said Queen Latifah who officiated the live wedding in front of a church-like setting complete a gospel choir. “Strip away the fear, underneath it’s all the same love.”
No matter where one stands on the issue of gay marriage, it’s impossible to deny in an age of hot button issues it’s among the hottest. The show’s focus suddenly shifted from today’s best singing stars to a soapbox complete with Madonna wearing a white ensemble from a rodeo exhibit. The fact that the sequence aired later in the show than an historic pairing of Paul McCartney and Ringo Starr also sent a message.
Country crooner Kacey Musgraves sang from a similar songbook during her live version ofFollow Your Arrow, a more appropriate way to send the message about universal feelings of love.
The night otherwise had something for virtually anyone. Not only did the two ex-Beatles share the stage once more, Pink outdid her previous acrobatic Grammy appearance with another airborne performance. Chicago and Robin Thicke blurred the lines between pop music then … and now.
LL Cool J made sure everyone felt comfortable at home, paying homage to music greats and the unifying beauty and love. He even joked that men everywhere need to be better beaus now that Taylor Swift is writing break-up songs with alacrity.
“Gentlemen, behave yourselves,” he said.

And there you have it folk…the land of the free! Smh
NOT SURPRISED! Really no one shold be at this point. One of my husband’s boys informed him that he was watching the show, of which my husband informed him that we as Christians shouldn’t be watching something like that. He told him that those types of shows are only for sending out subliminals messages, frequencies to mess with your mind, and worst of all they perform rituals to satan right on the stage infront of the world. 1 Timothy 5:22 calls us not to be partaker of other men’s sinsand to keep tourselves pure.
Amen to that, did not even know it was coming on. I do not watch these things and I do not allow them in my house. This does not surprise me at all. You are so right, it is a night unto Satan!
I’m so glad that I don’t have a need to watch the grammys anymore. Thank you jesus for deliverence.
She is also gay so this is no surprise. ..the church needs to keep interceeding for people to know God…we also have to be careful not to allow our hearts to grow cold buto pray in love for all because we are all sinners Christ Blood was shed for all of us..love the sinner hate the sin and pray with out ceasing for each other
WILL The real church which belongs to Jesus stand up! It’s time for a shut in and seek God’s face, this kind only goes out by fasting and praying. Pray Pray Pray saints we need to Pray!!!!
She certainly solidified her place in H – E – DOUBLE HOCKEY STICKS IF SHE DOESN’T REPENT BEFORE HER BELL TOLLS!
It still amazes me how BOLD the enemy is mocking the ONE TRUE GOD OF ISRAEL and the CHILDREN OF ZION remain SILENT! EVERY BELIEVERS SHOULD HAVE WALKED OUT AND FROM HENCE FOR THE REFUSE TO PARTICIPATE because it’s beyond obvious that satan is giving recognition to those that belong to him. ERGO. . . Hollywood “TRUE” BELIEVERS MUST CHOSE THIS DAY WHOM THEY WILL SERVE. . .PERIOD!!!!
TRUE FOLLOWERS OF CHRIST MUST PETITION THE GRAMMYS LETTING THEM KNOW OF OUR DISPLEASURE IN MOCKING OUR GOD!!!!!
ENOUGH ALREADY WITH THOSE UNCIRCUMCISED PHILISTINE MOCKING OUR GOD!!!!
Abomination, abomination, abomination…..We ARE in the days of Noah.
another slap in God’s face by Hollywood and their anti Christ members. This should be a wake up call for all Christian pastors and ministers and lay people to voice the Word of God loud and clear. For too long, issues the Church would not address, now has has a voice because it wasn’t addressed earlier,and that is Salvation comes with adherence to obey.
What has happened to the applause for those who preach an un watered down Gospel? L.L.Cool J who has professed Christ takes part on the same stage with Queen Latifah, a known lesbian performing unholy unions. Wow what a state of intrigue where darkness seduces. Where is Church leadership to denounce such activities ?
I just listened to GCL on KHVN radio. So glad that the “remnant” is still standing and is unafraid. God told Jeremiah in chapter 1 to not be afraid of their faces and to not be dismayed at their faces. We cannot let how others will react to what we say or the stance we take to cause us to keep silent. Souls are at stake and if it takes someone calling us intolerant, then so be it. They will at least have heard the Word. It will be up to them at that point to choose who they will serve. And we will have done as God commands. Be encouraged and keep your faith in The One who IS Faithful 🙂
The whole Grammys was a cesspool of Devils and demons conjured by the most influential antichrists!
I think the world is fooling itself (by being socially and politically correct) , the Bible explains it simply and with no grey area, when you fail to acknowledge God, than people’s heart become corrupt and they become victim to their own desires!! very sad!!
Romans 1:16-32
21 Because that, when they knew God, they glorified him not as God, neither were thankful ; but became vain in their imaginations, and their foolish heart was darkened .
22 Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools , 23 And changed the glory of the uncorruptible God into an image made like to corruptible man, and to birds, and fourfooted beasts, and creeping things.
24 Wherefore God also gave them up to uncleanness through the lusts of their own hearts, to dishonour their own bodies between themselves:
26 For this cause God gave them up unto vile affections: for even their women did change the natural use into that which is against nature: 27 And likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust one toward another ; men with men working that which is unseemly, and receiving in themselves that recompence of their error which was meet
I weep for this world for if a man believes in the Lord surely he knows the wages of his sin!
I agree with you “so glad”, I don’t watch the Grammy’s, Soul Train, BET, VMA’s, Stellar nor any other world “idol” award show. They are all a joke! Instead of celebrating awards and accolades, they need to be focused on salvation and repentance with Jesus for the more important reward of eternity in Heaven with our Heavenly Father…now that’s something to be praising & rejoicing about.
Amen!! I totally agree Aaryn.
I had no intentions of watching that show but I happened to see a few clips and I had to turn away. I was expecting performances like those because I saw Nicki Minaj’s 2013 Grammy Performance.
I saw at lot from the performances and awards speeches. I was shaking my head in disbelief .
God doesn’t want us getting drunk with the songs of the world but wants us to speak to each other in psalms, hymns, and spiritual songs. Ephesians 5:18-19.
The world tends to do what’s opposite of what’s in The Word.
For example if we listen, sing, and support songs that say “we’ll never be royal” it would be tough to see that we are royal.
But ye are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, an holy nation, a peculiar people; that ye should shew forth the praises of him who hath called you out of darkness into his marvellous light: 1Peter 2:9
The Days of Lot is becoming more and more apparent…unbelievable. dang.
Pastor Paul Washer once made a comment that would perfectly go hand in hand with what happened here. He said in a nutshell that you could place two sets of food before a pig, one clean and one rotten and he would rush for the rotten food first, why? Because he’s a pig. Queen latifah is spiritually that animal and also those award shows are pure garbage and filth as well. Should we expect righteousness and holiness to come out of the Kingdom of Satan? Let them do what their flesh desires. Let them go against all that God stands for thinking that God is an all inclusive God. I tell you the truth, there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth.
I love your comment Don, LOVE IT!! And I love that quote from Paul Washer as well, and it’s so true, these people have a totally reprobate, depraved mind, so how else do we expect them to act? They are of their father, the devil, so they are acting in accordance with him. It’s our responsibility as Christians not to watch this filth and to train up our children in the way they should go, so they won’t depart from it when they’re older, and stop letting society, schools, and entertainment raise our children.
I unfortunately had the displeasure of hearing this song at a dress store, targeting young ladies. And as I was buying something for my daughter who is 17, we both looked at each other and totally got confused, when we heard him saying that he was gay, but then when the woman started with the hook to the song, saying she keeps me warm….we looked at each other like what? Man, I just wanted to leave the stuff there, but since we were almost finished the transaction….I have not been back to that store..this is what the youth of the nation is hearing….that religion is teaching to hate, not love…..totally wrong and not true. But since that is what is being indoctrinated to the young kids, their non-spirit filled parents who allow them to hear this mess, they all think,that it’s a great song….this is crazy… And he mentions church and religion in such a negative way so many times….what might you think the kids that hear this will believe???.that the church is good and loving or hateful?
Yes!! Thank GOD i thought i was the only one disgusted by this.
And why are Christians watching this garbage anyway? God is holy, God is love…if it isn’t holy, it isn’t love. Nuff said.
Publicity stunt and doing stuff for shock affect. This life is a small speck compared to eternity. I don’t feel sorry for them for their blasphemies but many of these people grew up in Church and know the truth. They would rather have attention and fame than God. That is the only sad part.
Agree . I immediately
Switched channel and called
a prayer line to pray for the lost .
I enjoyed the show up until then
Agree its always about shock value
If kissing Brittany Spears wasn’t good
enough than its two men & on & on .
To me its just not gonna be something
I watch next year . God Bless .
Taura, I couldn’t agree more
Not surprised! Love them but hate the sin ( even our own) is what the word sys but because pple don’t read that how can they understand it. Yesterday i was talking to a man first time meeting him. And i listened and majority of what he said about working, education etc. was a lie ago i told him over and over again that is not true, it is a lie. By the time we had finished talking there was another man on the side of him and began talking to him and waved me off with his hand. As to say forget what she is saying. But yet he was grown can’t post his bills, and was so upset about not getting his foodstamps and he did this for hours on end. I believe he even tried to get me to bit him some food because hr was hungry, and he put up a fight until he realize i not in the business of feeding grown men with part time jobs. I enjoy giving to others regardless of their situation but in this case i felt this man was trying to make of fool out of me a child of God. I pitied him thou!
Its not about christians watching it or not! Some people can watch certain stuff & it not effect them & for others it may. But for those who who are weak to it, then you know not to watch it! But truth be told, US AS A WHOLE, WE NEED TO KNOW WHAT WE ARE UP AGAINST & WHAT OUR KIDS ARE VIEWING & LISTENING TO! YOU CAN’T FIGHT A BATTLE IF YOU DON’T KNOW WHAT YOUR OPPONENTS IS! ITS ALL IN THE BIBLE! WE GOTTA STAY PRAYED UP & KEEP FIGHTING THE GOOD FIGHT!
THINKING. . . “What does light have to do w/darkness?” “What does righteousness have to do w/unrighteousness?” History has proven that “Followers of Christ” cannot serve two masters; far too often giving lip service w/their mouths while their hearts are far away from the ONE TRUE GOD OF ISRAEL they profess to love and serve.
When Believers place themselves amongst heathens is much more likely that they will revert back to their evil ways; then, the heathens coming to CHRIST. . . “Bad company corrupts good character!” Theses are not the days and times that any of us can straddle the fence; less we become like one of them.
Moreover, ABBA has drawn a THICK RED BLOOD LINE in the sand, commanding HIS profess children to “Choose this day whom you will serve!” Sadly, like always, there’s just a remnant of HIS that will truly come out from Egypt as commanded- to worship the ONE TRUE GOD OF ISRAEL. PRAY-the-LORD, I’m determined to be a part of that remnant; for, I have seen what happened to those who did not obey. More importantly I know the end of HIS-story. If, I continue on the straight and narrow, I win because our SOON COMING KINGDOM is victorious-reigning is such GLORY that will cause every heathen to bow and confess JESUS THE CHRIST OF NAZARETH IS KINGDOM OF KINGDOM AND LORD OF LORDS! PERIOD! (An ending that will definitely blow “Hollywood HEATHEN INSIDERS’ minds!!!
“Getting goose pimples just thinking about it!” GLORY TO YOUR NAME LORD THINE GOD WHO REIGNS FOREVER AND EVER. . . HALLELUJAH!
Now some Christians will say, “Instead of us talking about them, we should pray for them.” Saints have been praying for these people (especially Beyonce) for years. We must face it, these people have SOLD OUT, most of them anyway. We must focus first, on the church; then to those who haven’t fully been indoctrinated by the Hollywood Mafia.
Sad thing is that Christian artists proudly accept this award and esteem it higher than a christian music award, they should protest and publicly destroy. this award. I don’t watch this gathering of Satan’s musical artists, and I hope other true christians don’t watch this mess.
