Here's the sad reality about Taylor (and so many other celebrities)...there will come a time when the rent is DUE. She's on top now, but the puppetmasters will chew her up and spit her out. Look at Britney Spears, Whitney Houston, and so many others. The Devil uses you and then discards you like trash. Sadly, that's her fate if she doesn't repent.
Right now Taylor has the world eating out of her hand. She is the darling of the entertainment industry and the media. Wait until they both turn on her. She is trapped in the industry and can't leave even if she wanted to. She needs our prayers. I find that there's a suspicious element to all this Taylormania that has come upon the world within the past several months with the Eras Tour.
Just remembered that Billie Eilish is another one who is going to take over Taylor’s position. I also want to point out that Olivia and Billie are both better vocalist than mediocre Taylor, not that singing abilities counts for anything in the satanic music industry.
I am friends with a country singer - I won't say their name, but we follow each other on social media and we've met in person at least three times. This singer took time off from his career to raise awareness about foster children by walking across the country. When he returned from his walk he went to the studio and the owner of his record label insisted that he listen to and up and coming female country singer - it was Taylor. All of the studio's efforts were put to pushing TS and this singer, who is openly Christian was shoved under the rug. He has not had a mainstream country music hit since 2009. Taylor was set up from the beginning to be a mouthpiece for certain agendas. Sadly what you're talking about music being demonic goes way back probably the last 100+ years, it 's just that it was better hidden back then. (Some of the famous classical music composers were known Freemasons! Doesn't that say a lot about why talented people never get heard by the masses because they're not in the "club"!) I am praying for the grace of discernment in weeding out my music collection - including tossing the whole thing if need be.
I'd say music being demonic goes way back to probably....the early Old Testament days. Gen 6:5 "The LORD saw how evil humans had become on the earth. All day long their deepest thoughts were nothing but evil." No doubt they were making music in their spare time.
@@kebro7325 Kevin Rider - Genesis 4:17-21 Cain's genealogy of influence leads through Lamech who took two wives and on to Jubal the father of 'all those who play the lyre and pipe'. - Interesting this is recorded as happening in the line of Cain. Makes you wonder about demonic influence there with how we've seen music used as an influence down through history.
I just found an old post I wrote back in 2014: "AS for Taylor - she is merely a puppet of the record industry. She's a young girl with a pretty face and an okay voice that said "yes" to the industry devils; she plays by their rules - and now that she's no longer considered "country music" - which has an image of being considered Christian people's music (despite all the songs about getting drunk...) and instead sings "pop", mark my words - the clothes will start to get less and in five to ten years you won't recognize her from the "innocent" look of her first album. I hope I'm wrong...but I don't think so..."
The music industry is so wacko left it’s not funny. I spent over ten years of my life in the industry. It’s perverted and messed up. And I’m not talking rock and roll either. Symphony/ orchestra players doing horrific things. And some even teach your children!! Never going back! Unless I can get on Jesus is King part 2 with Kanye and THE LORD😂💪
Man… I gotta admit this was convicting for me! As a songwriter I have always sort of looked up to TS for some of her clever lyrics and storytelling in her songs. However when the most recent album came out I started feeling convicted about listening to it. I started naturally gravitating away from it as I find her super arrogant. Just did a massive delete from all my Spotify playlists, along with some other music I was feeling convicted about…thank you for being so honest and bold! I’ve told myself in the past “it’s just a song”…but Jesus didn’t die for me to just go back to the ways of the world! Praying for you and your fiancé as you approach your wedding day! God bless ❤
This is complete bullshit. Have you listen to all Taylor’s songs? In her recent album and lead single “anti-hero” she clearly stated the she’s the problem and really aware with her struggle as human being. The motive and theme of her songs are majority about the complexity of the relationship, about her lover, her ex, her parents, her family, her friends, her band, her fans, her haters and even her cats. Her latest project that is album sisters called “folklore” and “evermore” took inspiration from fictional character with little snippet of her story life and talked about Mental Health, Child abuse, World War 2, PTSD, Pandemic, Infidelity, The Last Great American Dynasty (Her House) and so on. Who are you to judge? A GOD? Absolutely not. Don’t trash talk other people if you know nothing about them. At the end of the day Taylor doesn’t need validation from a random coward, ignorant and a bully like you guys. She’s living her best live by give back to the fans and society in so many ways. From buying house for the homeless and pregnant fans, paying college tuitions and bills, Christmas gift for the fans, giving donation for food bank in every city from her tour, and other good deeds that I couldn’t mention here.
That was Celine Dion for me. I was addicted to Celine's songs since I was a kid. As I grew in my relationship with Christ, my desire for any secular music DIED... including Celine's. I now cringe at the lyrics if I accidentally hear her songs. God 100% delivered me from secular music obsession. Glory to God 🙏
Yup! Even when the lyrics are clean, the Holy Spirit lets you know if there's darkness behind it. I heard about record companies doing occult rituals with master recordings to make the records sell, so even though that's not something you'd ever know, the Holy Spirit does, praise God!
@@Gfish17 What are you saying? God's grace is a ticket, for us to go from sin to His presence, not to keep sinning, but to change the way we live and live like Jesus did. If forgiveness was removed from the world we would not have a chance
Huge former swiftie since 2007- went to every tour, knew all of her songs by heart, was absolutely obsessed. As I got older I realized she was heading in a different direction than I was. I felt sad that I was falling out of love with her music , felt like I was losing a best friend in a way, but I felt something was off and this affirms it. Thank you for this
Be aware of parasocial relationships with celebrities, which aren't relationships at all because these people are complete strangers. If you can't call this person up and chat or go have a coffee with them then they're not your friend.
I'm a single Christian woman at 41 (never been married... yet!) and I VALUE marriage immensely. TS I've liked a few of her hits but it gets tiring to listen to single empowerment and breakups CONSTANTLY. It was like when Beyonce sang "Single Ladies" and people pointed out how Beyonce was NOT single and STILL promotes singleness ... and was in a solid relationship with Jay-Z at the time.
Have you even listened to the lyrics of the song that you refer to? 🤦🏼 She literally dumps a man because of the reason that he didn't want a marriage and she values herself enough to know that she is worth a husband, not a boyfriend
@@cezjan1997 Single Ladies is probably the wrong example but she has done songs in her recent albums were she encourages women to go out & enjoy the single life. Cardi B is another one. She is in a stable long term marriage and encourages juvenile behaviour.
I was obsessed with one of her songs (from the Red album), it was almost like my hymn. The lyrics just expressed the sadness in my heart. Music has the ability to keep you in a toxic cycle.
@@jenna1395 I understand, your feelings are true, but what is also true it´s that if you love God, you have to choose, you have to pick a side, if you love Him, you will obey Him. You have to deny yourself and pick up your cross every day. And God will reward you for this. God delights in his redeemed children. The question is, who do you love more, your idol who doesn´t even know you exist or the one who gave his life for you?
@@jenna1395 Your exegesis of Matthew 16:24, Mark 8:34, and Luke 9:23 is way off. Those passages are not about covenant transition but about not allowing anything in your life or your own agenda get in the way of choosing a relationship with him. Read what follows in these passages. If you allow the fear of losing something in your life to get in the way of making a decision for Jesus then the life he promises won't be attained. This has nothing to do with legalism or Lordship salvation, but has to do with going to Him as a sinner with nothing in hand and having total reliance on Him for the life He's offering. This is not to say we won't have our struggles with our old nature but the Holy Spirit will give us the strength to overcome. He fulfilled the law perfectly for us with His perfect life. Look at the context and audience. He had just spoken of the suffering He would endure for the sake of our salvation. He then plainly tells the people there with Him and His apostles that they need as followers of Him to deny themselves and be prepared for struggles; not in order to acquire salvation, but as a result of their decision. We too (in current times) are to live for Him and get rid of the things that are contrary to Him. This doesn't mean we can't enjoy things but anything that weakens our relationship with him we are to do away with. So don't justify an "I can do what I want" attitude with a poor interpretation of these passages.
@@jenna1395 We have entered a new covenant of faith but the law always pointed toward Jesus. As we draw closer to Him, we will want to live like He wants us to. Listening to this music and these lyrics can not bring you closer to God. It is an impediment to your faith. No matter how good you think your relationship is with God, it will never be what it can be. That is the point. I certainly get it, music is so ingrained in all of us. A song can help us unwind, pickup our mood, and often take us back to a certain moment of time in our lives. It is very powerful. I sometimes still have problems when I hear a song while dining out or shopping. It is not easy for any of us because we all have our weak moments but we are to be a different creature in Christ. God Bless!
Yes, exactly! I stopped listening to secular music because it kept me stuck in emotional hamster wheels. Teens love to rehearse emotional pain, its like cutting or anorexia, an addiction to torment and self-obsession.
This was so convicting for me! I’m 25 and have been listening to Taylor since I was 11. Her recent break up with joe made me feel sad for her. She’s in her mid thirties and it seems as if she chose her career over settling down and starting a family. I got married last July and it’s the most wonderful thing to be married. Taylor talks of marriage as if it’s this restrictive prison and yet I find it to be one of the most liberating experiences imaginable. I am so excited for you and your fiancé! I pray that God blesses your marriage 💕

@@romirosta1917 She is not that self-aware. She has never been that self-aware. She only wrote that song so that fangirls like you would say, “she has one song where she admits to being the problem! That means all of her problematic behavior in the past is okay, because she’s learning. “ She spent the last 10 years at least trying to convince the world that “all men”/ the patriarchy” are the reason for all of her problems in life. If she wants anyone to take her seriously then she needs to do more then write one song lyric.

So many “die hard” Taylor Swift fans are not only stay for her music but also because of her character (keep being humble and relatable). I think She treats her fans the best among other artists because she has genuine concern to her fans. Taylor Swift main forte is her songwriting. She is not the best vocalist compared other singers out there, but she is amazing with her craft. And she is a savvy business women in the music industry. She is the risk takers and so damn intelligent with her business ownership. If you think Taylor Swift is a bad person where is the energy to call out other artists who wrote and make music about sex, drugs, and worst topic than Taylor Swift? Is this how you cry of jealousy of Taylor’s success or your internal misogyny? I pity you. Who really hurt you boo? Are you ok? Someone need to pay your mother to love you ❤️🩹
@@romirosta1917 With judgment comes punishment. If you are not punishing someone you are not judging. Taylor Swift is not being punished. When you think about it everyone is bad, everyone who has sinned even once needs forgiveness from God. It is not my job to punish people for sin, that is God's job. While I definitely can say that there are more important issues out there, the music industry is very prominent in Crowleyian philosophy," Do as thou wilt." These podcasts are simply pointing it out.
I relate to so much of what you shared Angela. Praise God for giving us life in Christ! My husband and I had a daughter together and I ended up leaving him because satan had his teeth in me. He ended up getting custody of our daughter and I ended up getting in a relationship with a man who literally prayed to Lucifer that bad things would happen to me not to mention the addiction that led me to lose my daughter. God's grace rescued me. He went to prison and I went to a Christian non-profit that introduced me to Christ. Literally 6 months later my husband and I got back together and now we have another daughter. In Christ I realized the life that God has called me to as a God-fearing woman and my role as a wife and a mother. God has been SO GOOD TO ME. Life without Christ is not life. Thank you so much for putting this out there. It is so important that we are cautious about what we watch and listen to. Life and death are in the power of the tongue. Christ and God's Word feeds us in every way. We need nothing more.
@tashaarnall7195 All of the glory goes to God! He makes the impossible possible. He leaves the 99 to find the one. How incredible is our God?! Praise Him indeed 🙌
“Emotionally she’s a sixteen year old”- precisely!!! Her music promotes this narcissistic immature state of mind. Thank you for putting words to why I never was impressed with Taylor Swift.
29:04 "Those looks are going to fade, the fortune is going to perish, and the fame is going to be irrelevant when she is standing before Jesus Christ...!" Truth spoken with such conviction.
amen, love this and this goes for any of these celebrities that worship their money, fame, and status , making themselves and it idols, instead of God. And so sad cause the people that are obsessed over these celebrities who only care to get rich off the fans, and mind control them thru witch craft, are so deceived and blind folded thru those spells
I first saw you on the Michael Knowles show about your testimony and I loved it. You have such a beautiful heart. I saw the clip form this on Instagram and I had always been spiritually skeptical of Taylor Swift: the only two songs I love were love story and you belong with me. I see what you see, reading between the lines listening to music. I don’t listen to what everyone else listen ms to because there is a direct tie to the words and emotion of music and the spiritual realm. Thank you for speaking up about this! Keep it up!
I’m from Russia, and when you don’t speak English it’s so easy to listen this songs,because you don’t understand words,for you it’s just nice music. But now when I’m learning English, I was literally shoked,how possible to pronounce this word. You can’t imagine how I was shame in moment when first time understood words of Rihanna songs 😮
I used to be obsessed with Ariana Grande so much that I got the same tattoo as she has. I was obsessed! From her style, hair, and everything so I can definitely relate. Thank you for making this video 💟 Now I can not even listen to her.
me too! i was on ariana grande stan twitter for literally a decade of my life. i also got tattoos to match with her… i honestly can’t even stomach to listen anymore either.
Her oversexualized lyrics and some of her unbiblical views always steered me away, but I've always thought she had one of the most beautiful voices in the music industry.
@@maybellinelover Her voice really is beautiful. I'm pretty sure she was Christian as a child, but she left the faith after having some sort of unpleasant interaction with a priest I think? and she ultimately said that her values and morality don't align with the Christian faith. Honestly, it's just exemplary of how people want to gain the benefits of spirituality without compromising on what they believe to be right and true. It's unfortunate, but so many of us have been there. Hopefully one day God can reveal the truth to her, no one is ever too far gone!

You are absolutely right. Jesus Christ is love and he asks us to be merciful as he is merciful. Imagine the impact if she did come back to Christianity.
@@romirosta1917 Amazing how the You Tube creators are on a destroy Taylor Swift mission. But she’s the problem! I would really like to know exactly what congregation all these Christian’s belong to? Then we can have a discussion about Christianity? It’s interesting to keep hearing the double speak from so many acting so Christian !!! They are also very selective in what they cherry pick to share !
I think it's great that you're pointing this out, but don't diss single people. I hear you say that you don't, but I feel like you're placing marriage higher than singleness. Paul did the exact opposite in 1 Corinthians 7. He writes that he believes it is better to be single. However, the reason why is for different reasons than that of the world. And I think that's where the emphasis of the criticism should be, not on being empowered in living a single life overall. The world empowers self-love, pride and singleness in an unholy way, but there is a God-honoring way to live out a single life, and that is a good thing. You can devote more time and attention to God if you are single, because, as Paul writes, the married person's interests are divided as they are anxious about pleasing their marriage partner and things of the world as well as the Lord. Now, Paul clarifies that he doesn't write this to restrain us, but to benefit us and that he thinks it will make us happier. 1 Corinthians 7:35: "I say this for your own benefit, not to lay any restraint upon you, but to promote good order and to secure your undivided devotion to the Lord." And about keeping warm, you rephrased Ecclesiastes several times from "keep warm" to "keep warm at night", indicating that this passage is inherently about romantic partners keeping each other warm in bed. But I don't think the passage needs to be interpreted that way, and can just as well point to friendships. It is about helping each other and keeping each other warm in general, in any time of day and in any circumstance. Just wanted to point that out, as I think living for God is a lot more than demonstrating marriage in the physical realm we are currently in. This earthly life is temporal, and Jesus even says that we will not be married in heaven, but will be like the angels. Matthew 22:30: "For in the resurrection they neither marry nor are given in marriage, but are like angels in heaven." So while marriage is a beautiful way to show God's design, there is something even greater, and we are not missing out by not marrying. God bless you, your loved ones, your ministry and everyone watching and reading this. 🙏❤
I remember back when TS was getting some heat for not publicly supporting the LGB community and she kept quiet on it for quite some time. I assumed it was because of her faith. Then when You Need to Calm Down came out, I thought “there it is.” She finally sold her soul. Who knows. I wasn’t very strong in my faith yet so I kept buying her albums. It wasn’t until I saw your reel that I deleted all her albums from my phone. No joke, that same night, I could’ve sworn I was awakened by a demon trying to attack me. It was very apparent to me that the demon(s) were unsuccessful because I was protected by the Holy Spirit. Nothing like this has EVER HAPPENED to me before!! I was completely fine but was shocked. As much as I adored her music, I don’t miss it at all. I’ve got the love of Jesus. ❤ God bless your upcoming wedding, marriage, and podcast. Thank you for posting about this and convicting many of us!

Had similer things happened to me before. I didn't realize at time, and went back evenfurther. It was Jesus gived his blood way ahead of time before it could happen, and he saved me just like you were. I really do need to think him, and glory to the holy father. God is great, Jesus is great, and his angles are strong too ;) I'm lacking vocabulary to embrace the true righteous one, and I didn't even appreciate his sacrifice at time. Hear my testimony that the almighty power beyond time is God, and I believe that the savior of mankind is Jesus. I, an atheist, and yet he saves me. It brings me joy even to speak about the Lord and him.
BTW I originally meant to type "I am an atheist, and yet they still save me." Then I suddenly realize triple a makes the mark of 666 backward, so I cut off the am. This is just one of the many things I can not agree with the devil. No one shall twist the words that we had to use to such an extent that they lay traps everywhere imaginable. "yes we can" should never translate into "make you say" in reverse. These efforts won't do any good to himself, nor aid in his plot, only making people dislike them even more when finding out.
@@Azarath_Metrion_Zinthos When someone sells out to appease the industry gods, I consider it selling their soul. I don’t know about you, but I wouldn’t want someone falsely supporting my values just to benefit themselves and their fame. Don’t you care about authenticity at least? Oh, and just because I have a certain set of values that differ from yours doesn’t mean I have something wrong with me. Your intolerance is showing.
I can relate so much to your story, Angela. Your reel was what got me to realize it. In 2015, I became a Taylor fan. Things didn't really get bad for me until her Reputation album came out. I 100% can attest that I too became way more lustful, developed a bad "victim complex," obsessed with the idea of dangerous and toxic relationships, and quite rebellious from God. And I didn't care. It was the worst I ever felt, and I never once connected it with Taylor until you shared your story. I had saved back some Taylor magazines I bought during that time to sell them down the road, but after your video, I physically tore them to shreds and threw them away. I couldn't in good conscience sell them to someone else who may be so blind or could potentially fall into the same trap I fell into.

I just did this with my Amy Winehouse vinyl. I was going to take it to Goodwill thinking it’s brand new, how great would that be for someone? But I’m going to throw it away. No one should listen to it. I love Amy, & I know she was a troubled soul who i wish found God, but her music has demons attached to it. demons of addiction, lust, infidelity, & who knows what else. I can’t play it in my room, I’m scared it’ll summon something.
I have never been a super fan of TS but since I started listening to some of her songs (blank space specifically) and noticing the lyrics and how popular she became from that type of messages something started to feel off. Good job Angela and thank you! Let’s pray our Lord bring conviction to our sisters and brothers who follow her ❤️🙏
I see what you are saying. however, blank space was meant to be satirical. It's not meant to be taken as face value. I didn't have quite the same experience as the person in the video did. I've been listening to Taylor since I was 12. And listened to her reputation album at 16. I don't believe it influenced me as much(perhaps because I was already saved and was filtering what I was listening to through a biblical worldview.) I just remember not liking it. And to this day, it's my least favorite album of hers. I feel convicted listening to some of her music which is why I avoid those songs. But I personally don't think all of her music is bad.

This is something else. I became a Christian in high school but I kept listening to heavy metal. I did not walk the path of Christian….like at all. I lived a sinful life throughout my 20s and 30s, was depressed, and just floundered without purpose. I re-dedicated my life to the Lord in 2020. Looking back now as a nearly 50 yr old woman and the mother of two young daughters, I see how the music influenced me. My girls attend Christian school and I’m shocked (but also not) at the girls in her class who identify as “Swiftees”. My oldest was listening to her off and on after some sleepovers and she experienced depression and anxiety that I did not attribute, at the time, to what she was listening to. I prayed off her whatever was attacking her and I was shortly convicted by the Holy Spirit that it was the TS music. This stuff is insidious. We put on the full armor of God every morning as a family. It’s so important.
I found myself watching a lot of Eras reels on insta and like idolizing her recently until your reel popped up on my instagram yesterday and reminded me that Jesus is more important than anything. I then felt convicted to come and watch this and the truth is so clear...I've known it for a while and it's now time to close that chapter. Being a Christian is hard sometimes, the enemy works overtime to try suck us back but I've already been purchased and I say...not today and not ever satan! Praise God! ❤
Wow, this POWERFUL!! I’ve cut out most all music, even Christian pop (just because personally it makes my mind wander) and just listen to worship music- it’s life changing! Thank you for all the hours you put into making this, very well organized and put together!
@@MA-yc7pz Can you imagine a Divine Liturgy or a Traditional Mass with Christian pop music? The Church has its sacred music and it is not pop or rock. Unfortunately, in modern masses we see the introduction of musical genres that have nothing to do with sacred music; in this respect the Orthodox Church remains faithful to tradition. In music there is a hierarchy and sacred music comes first. Of course, you can listen to pop music with Christian lyrics, but Gregorian chant and Orthodox chant are incomparably superior. Then there is the problem of pop and rock artists pretending to be Christian but are defending the opposite of the Christian Faith. And there is an excess of sentimentality in this Christian pop. In short Christian pop can be religious by the lyrics but never sacred. Pop, rock, metal, hip-hop can never be considered sacred music regardless of the lyrics. I'm a composer and musician and I have an instrumental music project but I don't define it as sacred music although I compose music for the greater glory of God.
I so appreciate your passion and clarity on this topic! I've occasionally liked a song of hers, but she's almost always rubbed me the wrong way, so I've tried to ignore her. But once I got saved, I understood why she bothered me so much! Praying for your marriage. Congratulations!
Lol same here! I’ve never liked Taylor swift and truly don’t understand what the hubbub is all about. But I can see her influence on millions and millions of young women. It’s a shame!
This is complete bullshit. Have you listen to all Taylor’s songs? In her recent album and lead single “anti-hero” she clearly stated the she’s the problem and really aware with her struggle as human being. The motive and theme of her songs are majority about the complexity of the relationship, about her lover, her ex, her parents, her family, her friends, her band, her fans, her haters and even her cats. Her latest project that is album sisters called “folklore” and “evermore” took inspiration from fictional character with little snippet of her story life and talked about Mental Health, Child abuse, World War 2, PTSD, Pandemic, Infidelity, The Last Great American Dynasty (Her House) and so on. Who are you to judge? A GOD? Absolutely not. Don’t trash talk other people if you know nothing about them. At the end of the day Taylor doesn’t need validation from a random coward, ignorant and a bully like you guys. She’s living her best live by give back to the fans and society in so many ways. From buying house for the homeless and pregnant fans, paying college tuitions and bills, Christmas gift for the fans, giving donation for food bank in every city from her tour, and other good deeds that I couldn’t mention here. From what you said, clearly it’s a YOU problem and it’s not Taylor’s problem. Don’t blame Taylor for creating music as her cathartic method. Instead of blame others for no apparent reasons, blame yourself for not doing enough research.

Omg thank you! I just wrote a similar comment. I’ve never understood the obsession people have with her! And honestly, I don’t think she’s very talented. People act like she’s the greatest songwriter of all time 😂 it’s just wild to me
I know the obsession! Satan has power too and he’s giving her dark magic to put witchcraft in her lyrics so every young women who listens to her their under a spell! It’s real! That’s why Swifties are very popular
I feel all this. Taylor swift is also part my of testimony. I followed her since her debut album. Just until recently when I started getting closer to Jesus, I don’t feel well listening to her albums at all nowadays. Now I only truly listen to worship music and I feel so much at peace. I wish she find her happiness and her peace. Taylor Swift is not to blame for our choices, you’re on point on everything you’ve said.
I listened to Taylor when she 1st come out on the awards show singing Tim Mcgraw. It didn't take long for me stop. I am very cautious about the music I listen to or my family does. I attended a youth rally in 1991 in Marion,NC. The pastor had done a huge study on music,bands,etc. He broke down the song like Hotel California, Highway to Hell,etc. It was a huge eye opener.
Taylor's music was always about convincing young women that being angry at men they had slept with outside of committed relationships - much less marriage - makes it all okay. She left out that most women don't make millions singing songs about having given their bodies just for nothing. They do have the broken hearts and years they can't get back, and often the lost opportunity to get married and have kids. Now that I've come to Christ, pop music pretty much all feels repulsive to me. Congratulations on your wedding! Have a beautiful day and bring back pictures!
This comment needs more likes. All of Taylor’s music is about obsessing over a man, having sex with him, and then getting revenge on him because he had sex with her. At this point men should just avoid her like the plague.
I think she should be careful about shaming woman who aren't married at 33. I am not american I am indian and latino and both of those societiew are conservative... still it blows my mind how american conservatives are, that somehow its scandalous that a 33 years old is not married 😳 You never know why somebody isn't married and many times its not by choice. My own mother strugeled with cancer for years and did not get married till she was 38. She had 5 kids, and she has been married for more than 2 decades my parents are one of the happiest couples I have seen. Same with my sister, she didnt marry till she was 34. She is overly shy and started to date when she was already around 27. She always wanted marriage it simply didnt happen for her till later. I don't know if anyone would read that but specially if you are a woman be very carefull about this pressure thing. Being half indian, I have seen tones of people marry literally the first person they saw, just because they were over 25. This sets you up for a lifetime.of misery believe me. It creates unhappy marriages which eventualy create unhappy kids, and sufering in the world. Do not base your marriage on age or on " I have the goal of getting married next year". This kind of takes the value away from marriage as if it was simply a matter of buying something on amazon, or getting a degree. I can also tell.you.as.a man that is highly repels man, as you know that woman isnt interested on you but interested on finding anyone who can fullfill her agenda and make.her be acepted.. That attitude is disminishing to.herself and to.man its highly unatractive. Marriage should be about the person. Conservatives will shame you if you marry after 25. They would shame you too if you get divorced. If you have an unhappy marriage and as a result of that suffering your kids end up rebelious or into drugs , they will shame you too. So unless you find a good match at young age, all other options are shame. So many people are not able to find a good match at young age and its not because of Taylor Swift or because of being a party guy or girl. If you had divorced parents or abusive parents, its not gonna be easy for you to get it right at first, because you didnt see any example of a happy marriage. Which means most likely you are.gonna reproduce the abuse or the lack of love you had in your own household. Then what? Your kids would be unhappy and they would make their kids unhappy too and so on. Happy families are.so important I can not tell you enough how important it is specially for.a woman, to find God first, to heal herself, and then AFTER that have a family. A kid doesmt care if you biologically are 25 30 or 35. But a kid.will.absorb everything that is in you emotionally. So when a woman waits to.find a.proper healthy relationship and waits to be in a good place emotionally and spiritually before having kids she is literally changing the world She is changing the world as she is gonna create happy kids who will also create happy people im the future ( when you had a happy childhood 90 per cent of the times you wanna create a family too) So be carefull with that kind of preassure. It may make you marry the wrong person and end up divorced or abused. And then anyway they would shame you. So.let them shame you however they want already, and create a family when you feel you found the right person when you feel your soul is in the right place to give yourself to kids and husband. After all it is your life and I can assure you God prefers you to worry about your soul, than about your body. You can choose marriage thinking about your biology and body, or.you can choose it when your soul tells you its the right person amd moment. When you.are.healed enough on a good place with the Lord.to start.a family. Choose the second optiom please. Your future kids would thank you
If you made a 12 hour long video tearing down the lies of Satan through the influence of popular music I would definitely watch it repeatedly and share it with everyone I could! Keep doing God's work! Be blessed in the Holy name of Yeshua The Christ!
And white evangelicals support Trump's racism. John MacArthur CLEARLY attacked the people protesting the nazis in Charlottesville but wouldn't denounce the nazis, alt right, and white nationalists who murdered Heather Hyer. Reformed preachers still glorify Robert E. Lee,,Stonewall Jackson, and the confederacy.
So glad I found your channel. There’s something about hearing someone speak truth in a world full of lies that just gives me a sense of happiness. Everything nowadays is labeled a conspiracy theory even when the truth is right in front of your face. Thank you for your voice.
Wow. Thank you so much for this. I have been trying to get closer to Jesus and i often feel far from him. I have been wondering about Taylor because of how weird and worship like her concerts have become. I’ve listened to her music since I was 11 and have had a hard time giving up her music. I’m gonna wipe it from my phone and focus on growing my relationship with the Lord. This was so convicting in such a bold and loving way!
If you spend daily time in the word, you will be refreshed and encouraged. The Bible is food, strengthening us. It's also imperative to spend time worshipping & pursuing Christ with other sincere believers. We need the support, care accountability and love from the brethren. Call on Jesus's name throughout the day. You will be transformed!
then why does it often bring such guilt guilt guilt? I was born in cult and everything twisted. Trauma tends to attract more of the same, even after anointing and renouncement-TWICE for good measure
Goodness gracious, thank you so much for this video! So much of this has recenated with me, I'm 17 and I had been a fan of Taylor since I was like 3. There were lyrics that would make me uncomfortable but I would always just brush it off or make excuses but no! That was the Lord telling me that this isn't good, this isn't doing anything for your walk with Me. I have been really struggling lately with if I should plug into main stream things when it comes to the books I read, the media I watch/read, the music I listen to and you have seriously opened my eyes. I haven't even finished the video yet, I'm at 23:28 but I just felt the need to type all this out. I remembered how I feel when I listen to praise music, when I watch a video that glorifies the Lord and I always come away feeling awesome. I always walk away feeling reguvinated, feeling the Lord in me, feeling productive. A huge thing I struggle with is taking care of myself, when I plug into main stream media, guess what, I'm not washing my face, I'm not putting on mositerizer or sunscreen. But when I plug into the Lord, I almost feel like the Lord is whispering to me "take care of yourself, child." So yeah, just, thank you for this, I'm sure I'll walk away with a lot after finishing this but God has already spoken to me so much. This video truly is a blessing.
I'm always looking at the comments and I've never really posted anything under videos like this one, but I really relate to what you wrote. Especially the part where you literally forget to take care of yourself when you are all about mainstream media and stuff. That programming is real and it's killing us slowly at least it used to. Now with tiktok and stuff we reached another level. I have always wondered how humans can do that to fellow humans and I start to get why. It's sickening! I listened to her so much since I was 7(just realised) and she got me hypnotised or something need to calm down was so obvious and yet I let it go. I was really aligning myself to see things like her about everything. But Jesus always wins and finds a way. Stay blessed 🙏🏼💙🙏🏼
Even language, I wasn't swearing or anything just like her writing clean and stuff, the more I grew up with her and her music I started tolerating it just like her. It's like you listen to her and in the beginning it seems weird and just like that you don't even realize you just say things such as "in my reputation era", "you don't need to forgive or forget to move on", you can't focus when reading the Bible you just want to mimic her, talk about her, attack her haters. All that to wake up realizing you are on a path which leads straight to eternal damnation. 😢😢😢
@@archmichaels God bless you, brother. I didn't even properly realize how bad it was until I got out of it. Still working on it though, I've realized that over coming sin isn't just this one thing you over come and then your fine. No, it is a constant effort to better yourself through God's convictions and it will go on for the rest of your life. But through God, all things are possible!
Reading the "take care of yourself, child" made me tear up. I also struggle with taking care of myself, and reading your comment helped me remember to lean on the Lord Jesus. Thank you for that and I pray you continue to grow and learn spiritually.
Megan Patterson, you know lack of self care is a symptom of depression. I struggle terribly w/that, and use up-beat music to help me work out when I literally can't move. And the prAyer meetings are opposite of instruction to "go into your closet & pray secretly & Lord rewards you openly" (??) or,"avoid vain repetition." so, while prayer is key, I guess it's time to talk to God & my pastor. I hope your self care issues let up, & I can "develop-or acquire an appreciation" -for praise/gospel music. I listened to Pentatonix "HALLELUJAH" & almost cried it was so beautiful-then saw the video. My gay-dar went off, & sure enough, main singer was currently marrying a guy. idk where to even file that, or where the US ofA "Be-headed"- :○
I would’ve previously considered myself a swiftie. I hadn’t listened to any of her music newer than 1989 until this past fall when midnights came out, and I also got into lover. Ever since then I’ve been questioning a lot of her lyrics and intent. I’ve had to SEARCH many times to find this kind of info on her. THANK YOU for being a light.
I’ve just found your RU-vid and instagram! Love it! I totally agree with you about having to weigh EVERYTHING in this life against the Word. I have never been a Taylor Swift fan. Like , I might know three songs. But while I never struggled with music, I used to LOVE watching the ID channel. The entire channel showcases episodes on murder, lies, betrayal. Not to mention these shows love to do reenactments therefore putting sexual affairs and/or murder scenes right in front of your face. Drinking those things in to our spirits WILL have a spiritual effect on us! I used to think it was alright to watch it bc it’s based on true events. What dumb logic. One day the thought popped into my head (I’m sure it was the Lord) and the thought was “what does it matter if it’s true, it’s still wrong.” And then I thought, Wow. That’s true. I never really thought about it. Why would I love something like this? All of it comes directly from Satan. This is satanic stuff It’s still a fascination with evil, murder, betrayal. Yeah it really happened but it’s not something I should sit and consume (John 8:44 Satan is a murderer and the father of lies). Listening to you talking about music, I realize that this stuff was causing issues for me. I was angry and had dark thoughts and my whole mindset was just not what it used to me. I had drifted from the Lord so much. It’s shocking to realize that things in our every day lives can have this affect if we’re not in constant communion with the Lord bc His Spirit will show us what we need to turn off and stop listening to. The WHOLE industry is satanic. The movies, tv shows, music, etc. The Bible called the enemy the subtle beast (Gen. 3:1). He has crept in and has the masses in confusion. It’s surprising how people can’t see what’s going on. Love your videos! It’s 110% the truth that needs to be shared!
As much as TS is about her symbolism, ive always wondered if her lyrics are actually her way of saying what she is actually feeling towards the one who actually gave her the fame she has. One of the things about fame that i think we have gotten so backwards and the enemy has twisted up so well is that most people consider fame a blessing.... I truly believe its a curse... Its so easy to look at the lifestyle these people have and wish we had that, the money, the houses, the adoration of so many, but its all a curse... Its probably the biggest thing keeping those people from truly knowing their creator...
well said! doesn't it say in the Bible that it is harder for a rich person to get to heaven? Forgive me I forgot exactly what verse says this but I do remember it saying something like this. Not that there aren't Godly wealthy Christians out there but I could see it being difficult to keep your attention on the Lord if you feel you do not need His help. Lastly, I'm writing this comment a few days after TTPD was realized and it is now clear that she is miserable and jaded as a uber successful billionaire. She has everything in this world except God
When I first heard “Teardrops on my Guitar” I was instantly enamored. I was obsessing over some guy in school( I was in 9th grade, so like 2008 or 2009) and that song validated that. I was so obsessed with this guy that I spent all day every day daydreaming about it just like the guy from that song. My life’s mission was to get his attention. It was so sad. I was so boy crazy and all her music just kept validating that.
Thank you... I went to a similar situation with Lana del rey that almost destroyed my marriage (my choices and my fault) but the music that would come out from her was so spot on pertaining to what I wad going through that it was spooky. I was even aware of how bad it was spiritually but was in a battle of my flesh that was very, very difficult to overcome. There is no other place I'd want to be than the arms of Jesus 🙌🙌🙌
I wish she would make a podcast solely focusing on lana del rey and her lyrics. her song young and beautiful literally says 'channeling angels in the new age now.'
Oh, the list of the artists who made an idol of it is soooo long! And had been listening to them for ages, not realising I was making myself mentally miserable . Praise God for opening our spiritual eyes and ears❤❤❤❤! He broke that bondage that we had willingly signed up for! As the Bible says : our hearts are hopelessly wicked . We are twisted and don't really know what's good for us. Only Christ can deliver us from that mental misery and torture!
This is complete bullshit. Have you listen to all Taylor’s songs? In her recent album and lead single “anti-hero” she clearly stated the she’s the problem and really aware with her struggle as human being. The motive and theme of her songs are majority about the complexity of the relationship, about her lover, her ex, her parents, her family, her friends, her band, her fans, her haters and even her cats. Her latest project that is album sisters called “folklore” and “evermore” took inspiration from fictional character with little snippet of her story life and talked about Mental Health, Child abuse, World War 2, PTSD, Pandemic, Infidelity, The Last Great American Dynasty (Her House) and so on. Who are you to judge? A GOD? Absolutely not. Don’t trash talk other people if you know nothing about them. At the end of the day Taylor doesn’t need validation from a random coward, ignorant and a bully like you guys. She’s living her best live by give back to the fans and society in so many ways. From buying house for the homeless and pregnant fans, paying college tuitions and bills, Christmas gift for the fans, giving donation for food bank in every city from her tour, and other good deeds that I couldn’t mention here. From what you said, clearly it’s a YOU problem and it’s not Taylor’s problem. Don’t blame Taylor for creating music as her cathartic method. Instead of blame others for no apparent reasons, blame yourself for not doing enough research.
Thank you for your vulnerability and hard work to create this content. May God be glorified! I know many young people justifying Taylor's music while struggling with anxiety, depression, and confusion surrounding God's love and holiness....this is all very concerning 🙏♥️ God bless you and your fiance, keep your eyes on Jesus, our Savior and Lord!

I’m a 29-year-old woman and I have never gotten the hype about Taylor! I liked her okay back when she was first becoming kind of known very early on. I started getting suspicious when she went from singing with a twangy country accent to doing a complete 180 and changing her whole image. That’s when I knew she was completely fake. I can’t tell you how many people have called me a hater, etc because of my views on her. There was always just something that made me very uncomfortable and suspicious. When Reputation came out, I thought it was incredibly cringey. I was lukewarm in my faith at that time btw, but still saw how weird the image change was. Now I look back and realize just how nefarious Reputation really was. Then she started running her mouth about politics and getting hardcore into feminism. As a conservative, I was obviously very turned off by this. Of course then she had the song “You Need to Calm Down” which was very ugly and mocking in itself. Lately I feel like she is absolutely everywhere out of nowhere. She’s being shoved down everybody’s throat constantly. Tbh, her fans also freak me out. It’s not normal for women in their twenties to be blacking out and sobbing over a pop star. There is something extremely nefarious going on with Taylor. Unfortunately it seems like her narcissism grows more and more every day. It’s obvious she values the “worship” from her fans more than a relationship with God. It’s extremely sad.
I just saw taylor swift on her era’s tour, & I do still love her because I am a songwriter myself & i do find a lot of her songs beautifully written & from a pure place, but yes a lot of them are misleading & bad for my soul. but at the era’s tour, for her song willow (which this album I just so happened to never get into), she did this witchcraft ritual themed performance. it was very strange, & I thought “well what do ya know, she is doing this for 70,000 people per show, 52 shows total on her tour.” makes sense whether she realized it was that bad or not. also with reputation, I never liked that album, & i always felt skeptical about the snakes. also at her show she had snakes all across the floor, fire shooting from behind her, hissing throughout the stadium. it wasn’t cute. I have a lot of adoration & inspiration for her in my heart, & I may not ever shake it, but I know she’s not worthy of worship, & I know she is & has led people to dark places. I hope she comes back to Jesus one day, & she has a beautiful marriage, too.
I say this with love but it’s important that you armor up, read your Bible and really pray over your home and your mind because she was putting rituals and witchcraft over the entire audience; yes she knows what she’s doing, but in her mind she thinks it’s good but she’s a slave to the satanic music industry that’s why she’s been putting in all the snake stuff recently.
Yes I went with my daughter to Atlanta to see her when that song started and they came out in those robes in a circle I started praying over myself and my daughter, it was a very demonic performance.
@@cheryltaylor4315 L take ngl. the willow witch is symbolic. in rep, she said they were burning all the witches even if you arent one, so light her up. In folklore, she said women like hunting witches too, doing your dirtiest for for you. Shes been called a snake, two-faced, had her rep destroyed. with willow, shes basically embracing it, and saying that peoples opinons cant hurt her, kinda like in rep, with the snakes. Its symbolic of her journey, and her relationship with the media
I used to listen to her songs but she always came of as immature and glorifying of herself. Her girl-squad times made her seem like a bully and I disliked the whole snake ring and the the snakes on her throne on “Blank Space.” I saw a young woman who was turning evil but blaming others for what she was turning into in “Look what you made me do.” Once she said old Taylor was dead I was also out. I know about these celebrities “coming out” as high ranking witches or getting rid of the child self or killing their own reflections like Katy Perry, Selena Gomez and Britney Speares videos. Now we have Bella Poarch and Doja Cat just horrifying photos of themselves and glorifying so many modern motifs of the occult.
I'm new to your channel and just wanted to say you are not alone. Everything ive learned of you is so close to my story. The New Age, sexual addiction and idolizing Music artists. God is so good...so so good...He has been directing my life fully for the last 9 months finally and I've thrown everything away including all my music. It physically made me feel sick to do it but I know without a doubt it had to go. I'm still in the deliverance process but getting there Praise God!! Thank you for sharing ❤️
Thank you!!! I thank Jesus I watched a video of Isaiah Saldivar about Taylor and it lead me to search for you and what you had presented about Taylor. In doing so I found your podcast and listened to your oldest episode. It gave me the chills, I cried and was moved by your testimony. Praise God for what he did in you and what he saved you from. You and many others who are boldly preaching and talking about the truth have juta come into my life in a God timely way.
Wow! Deep in my heart, i knew listening to TS is not good for my soul... and i was always hoping someone would convict me of it... and i just stumbled on your video and you talk about everything my soul wanted to hear.... Thank you and thanks be to God for using you as His instrument!
I can totally relate to it! Ever since I was an adolescente; or even younger, I would listen to secular music and would drift away into a sexual dream world. It was only recently the Holy Spirit revealed to me as to why I would listen to all those sad "love" songs for hours , really enjoying that feeling of misery , which was addicting through and through. It would hurt so much, and yet I couldn't make myself stop listening to those heartbreaking songs (i.e., those of Selena Gomez, Ed sheeran, cold play , lana del rey, etc) . I had never connected the dots before I gave my life fully to Christ regarding literal oppression and slavery those songs have on a person, due to the fallen spirits behind them! They never edify a perso ! They never make a person reflect on just how futile and deceiving our feelings and listening to our hearts can be! I sure had a pity party for myself everytime I'd listen to them . It was a nightmare, but , ironically , i went back to listening to them . They are downright toxic for a human mental well being. I have stopped listening to that garbage all together ...and praise the Lord ! I have never been so stable emotionally in my life! When I'm no longer a slave to sensuality and lascivious thoughts!!! If you want to God to bless all of the areas of your life, and get the kind of peace that only the Almighty can give you: CLOSE ALL THOSE DEMONIC DOORS! don't make any excuses. Just do it , otherwise , you will never be able to grow spiritually in the Lord. Mark my words, if there's no spiritually growth , you will be back in Egipt in no time! Been there , done that! All glory to God that He is faithful when we are not. He had been waiting for me to come back and be set free from the slavery ❤❤️🙏❤️🙏❤️🙏 you cannot serve two masters. Guaranteed!
This message is true. The truth is often hard for many to hear but when it’s hardest to hear is when you need it the most. Please keep this in mind if you’re having a hard time with this message ❤️
That's the world industry and the Christian music scene. Be careful of both. Just because they are singing Christian music doesn't mean Christ is present.
Father God, I pray you will protect young girls & women from the influence of music that clearly doesn't glorify God. Draw them to worship music that glorifies you Lord. In Jesus name I pray. We pray for Taylor Swift & other secular artists who need Jesus, in Jesus mighty, holy, precious name.
I have Christian friends who the mother and daughter recently went to the Taylor Swift concert. The husband is a worship leader. I can't believe any Christian would listen to her.
Never listened to Taylor Swift a day in my life, but I'm here out of curiosity as to the nature of the spirit that has the world fascinated! Thanks Angela

This is excellent, thanks for tackling it. I have never been a fan of her music, but the evolution of her physical and musical style seems off to me, and I can't put my finger on why. Her song Cardigan got me though and I found myself in love with it. However, again, something still seems off and she does not sit well with my spirit. I've put the one song I like aside and I'm avoiding it. Music hits different when your eyes have been opened.
Thank you so much for this msg. It was confirmation and conviction. I went thru the same thing with a group (BTS). I used to be obsessed with them a few yrs ago to the point I would fly to another country to see them in concert. They are down to earth, sweet people but I was convicted because I knew they weren’t Christians. I pray they come to Christ and have an encounter with Him asap. Ps Congratulations on your wedding and I pray God blesses your marriage. 💕
@@icephoenix1932 trueeeee ! I remember during one of their festas where he acknowledged a higher being and the members shut it down saying he doesn’t even have a religion…… I was like “he’s so close!”
I loved them too! then I watched blood, sweat & tears, & i was like nope. one of the most demonic & uncomfortable videos I have ever watched. I can’t listen to them at all anymore, I can’t even stomach it.
@lyza663, @icephoenix1932, @fleur-irenee ... I was even one of those shippers, a Taekooker no less, because I really saw something between them and started becoming tolerant towards the Alphabet community... until I learned that there's this thing as demonic soul tie with twin flames thing Angela also talks about. Remember when Taehyung once said he went to a fortune teller with JK.. and they were that fire and water soul twins? What if they unknowingly entered into a demonic agreement and formed a soul tie...my mind is so blown, when I connect all the dots 🤯 Also watching Blood, Sweat & Tears Japanese Version gave me chills...can't help but think they sacrificed JK in some form or shape.. it's not surprising he's blowing up and also doing certain hand symbols etc. 👀
Im agreeing with most of what you’re saying so far. I do have to mention though that the Bible doesn’t say that you have to get married and have children. In fact Jesus and the Apostle Paul both stated that it is good to be single if this is what you’re called to be. Im married myself, however, I do think you were not clear about what the Bible says. This could make single men and women feel as though they’re not complete without a partner and this is simply not true. We are complete in Christ alone. Maybe this was not your intent, however, I did feel you came across this way. Also, cats are amazing and when one dies you adopt another one of these precious creatures. ❤
I just wrote a long comment and deleted it by accident 🤦🏻♀️... your video really resonated with me I was a huge Taylor Swift fan ever since the nineteen eighty-nine album came out I listen to every single song every single album I bought the deluxe versions the books the poems her artwork some clothing her merchandise. Every album came out seem to be like everything I was going through at the same time as her now I realize it wasn't a coincidence 😔 I loved her I was obsessed with her at the same time my relationship started falling apart and it was my fault I was flirting I was seeing other guys and my boyfriend at the time and he's the father of my child was faithful to me and loved me and he was hurting over this. It seems like the more I listened to every song on repeat I felt like I deserved more and I wanted better and what is always trying to find a new guy or flirting or sneaking out to go see someone else... I lost all kinds of weight because I saw how skinny Taylor Swift was I made myself look good and I ignored my lover!! I stopped my Bible study group I stopped reading my Bible on a daily basis. when the folklore album came out something in the back of my mind kept telling you that something just wasn't right... even though the songs were good it just didn't feel right to me something felt off something felt evil or demonic even though the lyrics seemed emotional and sincere something just felt different to me I want to thank you for making this video I'm so glad I came across it because I've never seen you before on RU-vid this made so much sense to me!! So about two years ago I stopped listening to her and her music because I seen what a hypocrite she was I did a little research and found out how arrogant how ignorant she is and how she weaponizes her fan base and manipulates people and is a true hypocrite!! Especially now she left Joe Alwyn after six years didn't even get married or have children and less than a couple weeks later she's madly in love with some other guy who's like a rocker and a mess anyways to make a long story short when I stopped listening to her and I stopped idolizing her I thought oh I could love the art and separate the the artist from the art I found out is really not possible... Ever since I seen your video just now it all made sense all came together so thank you and I will pray for her and all the fans that are being manipulated and brainwashed into the satanic bs!! PS me and my husband now have the most loving relationship we're closer than ever and we're having the best of time enjoying life together and I'm going to start reading my Bible verses again me and him used to read them together so thank you❤
New sub. This Eras tour is all over the internet,and I thought to myself,the idol worship of her has surpassed the likes of Michael Jackson. When you see almost 100,000 people praising her in stadiums,it's just mind blowing‼️🤯
Yes, it was insane here in Atlanta. Sold out 3 nights. It was packed outside. People literally traveled here just to stand outside of the stadium and hear her sing.
While Taylor has always been popular, her popularity after 2020 has grown so much it’s insane. At some point it was almost taboo to admit you liked her or her music because of the drama she went through. After 2020 she suddenly became a bigger idol. Men and woman of all ages are obsessed with her. She doesn’t have the same status as her fellow artist counterparts anymore, she’s bigger and that’s scary.
Honestly this video is worth the watch. At first I was really skeptical, especially since I never idolized or “fan girled” over anyone. However, the further into the video I got the more I found my eyes opened and found myself agreeing to a lot. Great video!
It is so refreshing to see a Christian speak on every point you just spoke on. This is so edifying and quite exciting to finally see someone unmasking it for what it is. After going down the rabbit hole and finding all of this out during my college years back in 2011-2014 and coming to Jesus in 2020, I can say you are about to open so many eyes and ears with this!! Thank you for hitting everything on point and for delivering it with a loving and convicting way. Prayers that this reaches more people. P.S. Congratulations on your upcoming marriage May God bless your marriage and your ministry for his glory! 🥳💍♥️
I think she should be careful about shaming woman who aren't married at 33. I am not american I am indian and latino and both of those societiew are conservative... still it blows my mind how american conservatives are, that somehow its scandalous that a 33 years old is not married 😳 You never know why somebody isn't married and many times its not by choice. My own mother strugeled with cancer for years and did not get married till she was 38. She had 5 kids, and she has been married for more than 2 decades my parents are one of the happiest couples I have seen. Same with my sister, she didnt marry till she was 34. She is overly shy and started to date when she was already around 27. She always wanted marriage it simply didnt happen for her till later. I don't know if anyone would read that but specially if you are a woman be very carefull about this pressure thing. Being half indian, I have seen tones of people marry literally the first person they saw, just because they were over 25. This sets you up for a lifetime.of misery believe me. It creates unhappy marriages which eventualy create unhappy kids, and sufering in the world. Do not base your marriage on age or on " I have the goal of getting married next year". This kind of takes the value away from marriage as if it was simply a matter of buying something on amazon, or getting a degree. I can also tell.you.as.a man that is highly repels man, as you know that woman isnt interested on you but interested on finding anyone who can fullfill her agenda and make.her be acepted.. That attitude is disminishing to.herself and to.man its highly unatractive. Marriage should be about the person. Conservatives will shame you if you marry after 25. They would shame you too if you get divorced. If you have an unhappy marriage and as a result of that suffering your kids end up rebelious or into drugs , they will shame you too. So unless you find a good match at young age, all other options are shame. So many people are not able to find a good match at young age and its not because of Taylor Swift or because of being a party guy or girl. If you had divorced parents or abusive parents, its not gonna be easy for you to get it right at first, because you didnt see any example of a happy marriage. Which means most likely you are.gonna reproduce the abuse or the lack of love you had in your own household. Then what? Your kids would be unhappy and they would make their kids unhappy too and so on. Happy families are.so important I can not tell you enough how important it is specially for.a woman, to find God first, to heal herself, and then AFTER that have a family. A kid doesmt care if you biologically are 25 30 or 35. But a kid.will.absorb everything that is in you emotionally. So when a woman waits to.find a.proper healthy relationship and waits to be in a good place emotionally and spiritually before having kids she is literally changing the world She is changing the world as she is gonna create happy kids who will also create happy people im the future ( when you had a happy childhood 90 per cent of the times you wanna create a family too) So be carefull with that kind of preassure. It may make you marry the wrong person and end up divorced or abused. And then anyway they would shame you. So.let them shame you however they want already, and create a family when you feel you found the right person when you feel your soul is in the right place to give yourself to kids and husband. After all it is your life and I can assure you God prefers you to worry about your soul, than about your body. You can choose marriage thinking about your biology and body, or.you can choose it when your soul tells you its the right person amd moment. When you.are.healed enough on a good place with the Lord.to start.a family. Choose the second optiom please. Your future kids would thank you
I would love to see you do a video like this about Glennon Doyle's book Untamed (and books like it). That book nearly led me to destroying my life. At least it was a big part of it and symbolizes a lot of this as well. Melissa Dougherty did a great video on it with Alisa Childers. But it's so so relevant.
I just found your channel and am so happy I did! Thank you for calling this out, I pray it reaches many. I’m watching this on Saturday, the true Sabbath, and it has been such a blessing. Please continue doing these. I gave up secular music/TV/movies about a year ago and it’s made such a difference. Things of this world truly do grow dim. It has no appeal for me any longer. This earth is the devils playground - we have to be so mindful of what we allow to enter our minds through tv, music, movies, etc. Man’s hearts are evil continually. We can only put our faith and trust in God and his only begotten Son. Nice callout of MK Ultra too. Go there girl - it’s the truth. Everyone needs to hear it and you deliver you perfectly. And congratulations on your marriage and may the Lord bless you both!
Never listened to Tailor Swift personally. I stopped listening to contemporary mainstream music and the news years ago. I happen to hear some mainstream music sometimes, and the lyrics pretty much always encourage sin. It's garbage.
“It’s better to be a 33 year old ‘empowered woman,’ with billions of dollars, and sexy legs, and a boss babe career, and a hunger to dismantle the patriarchy.” This perfectly sums up the aggressive push from the world on all women right now. Chilling and accurate. Not to mention the required, savage “pro-choice” attitude.

You and I have such a similar testimony, and I REALLY appreciate you speaking about the ways in which you were deceived. It's so important, especially for people who are still IN IT who may not understand, and ALSO for Christians who are less familiar with the occult than we are. I think it's such a mistake for some lifelong Christians to believe that this isn't witchcraft, that the supernatural isn't real, that as long as you say you love Jesus nothing can touch you, etc. You're doing important work with this. Keep going! All glory to God! Prayers and love your way, sister.
Lyndsay Graham, BRAVO! SPOT ON. Ezekiel 32 & 33 are screaming indictments for so called "Christians" who think nothing of sinning, making light of the same non-convicted "forgive me, Lord & please help us to do better" knowing NO MORE EFFORT is put into STOPPING the sin being brushed over. It's an insult, and today, my phone disconnected right after that occurred. It is treading over the cross and re-crucifying Christ, putting ourselves to shame; that's probably why many churches fell during "covid" - -Satan worshippers take him seriously, while Christians-far too many-do not take EITHER SIDE seriously enough! Thankfully this video is a loud wake-up call. IS ANYTHING TOO HARD FOR GOD?....No, but it's all too hard for us if we don't let Him in.
Just saw your interview and testimony on Isaiah’s channel and loved it !! You have a real gift for speaking . Hollywood in general has always given me really bad vibes . They really don’t even hide the satanism anymore , they celebrate it .
A blessing this episode was💖 although I don’t really listen ti music that much I think romanticising heartbreak has always been a weakness for me and now while listening to you, when I started listening to folklore i was going through something and it really made me hold on to my pain even more and be stubborn instead of trusting the Lord
Has any former Swiftie noticed that Taylor’s popularity has grown A LOT since 2020 ?!?! When we were saved our eyes were opened and we realized our idolatry towards her. But we can’t deny that the general public’s idolatry towards has grown! And that’s scary. Makes me wonder how ignorant or Guilty she is. Is she just blind and following these worldly things because of ignorance ? or does she know what she is doing?
I too believe she knows what she's doing. Glad I am not the only one to think that all this Taylormania that has seized the world recently has a weird element to it. Some people are now touting Taylor as bigger than the Beatles and Paul McCartney as a songwriter. No one has been able to top the Beatles for 50-60 years and all of a sudden. Taylor comes along and knocks all that down within the last 3 months. That alone is suspect.
@@Yvone0707I have been a fan for since her first single in 2006. this is not all of a sudden. wtf. I have had my dog for six years and Taylor Swift is about to have her 10th studio album come out since I’ve had my dog. no one else is doing this. do your research. y’all are mad cause she’s a woman breaking records. I personally will go literally up to a month of only streaming Taylor Swift. I am not nearly as intense as other swiftie’s. This is why she’s risen. We will do what it takes to help her get there. We have forums where we decide to all listen to certain albums in certain songs all on the same day literally hundreds and thousands of us all the time. we have dedicated the whole month of August to streaming her and getting her up on the Billboard charts. all of a sudden is out the window. I have dedicated most of my life to being a fan of hers always supporting her. Y’all have no clue. How about we just love what we love and let us be who we are ♥️ I love you all so much ! I also love Taylor Swift I also love God It shouldn’t be this or that .
@@Yvone0707she has an incredible stage, very large production, she s promoting all of her albums, she didn’t tour for folklore and evermore, there’s a lot of elements that make her tour very unique, that’s why it’s unlike anything we ve seen in the past decade or more. She s performing 44 songs per night when the standard is 15 tops. You are just ignoring a bunch of factors that made her popularity grow so quickly, although she s been on the charts for 17 years, I don’t get why you would say she almost became famous overnight. Maybe work as hard and for so long and come up with something unique and maybe you will understand
Wow! This is the first I've seen of your channel. I am so amazed at the spiritual depth such a young person has. You are truly anointed to do what you're doing. Keep it up, it is so badly needed. On another note, my sister's church had a sermon this past Sunday all centering around Taylor Swift songs! It makes me sick in my spirit.
That was Britney for me.Last years I realized how her lyrics influenced my life and my way of seeing and thinking of relationships.I am very selective what I sing about.
I’m so thankful to come across your video, I had been searching all morning for something like this. I wouldn’t say that I am Christian but I am spiritual person and do have Christian beliefs. I’ve been a big fan of Taylor since 2008 the last few years her music hasn’t appealed to me as much as it did in previous years and I found myself no longer being drawn to her music or her. I felt in the past I could relate to her and I was living in some dark times of my life suffering from illnesses and domestic violent relationship. When I had turned my life around and got out of the situations that were bringing me down, looking for the truth and doing inner work and soul searching is when I had found myself less interested in her music and I had started noticing unsettling feelings when listening to her songs or hearing lyrics that I did not agree with. Just recently during the era tour hearing of people experiencing amnesia after her concert didn’t sit well with me I knew there was more to it and something told me that there was an evil force behind this and then listening to her midnights album I didn’t like it, there was so much in the lyrics and the songs, music videos ect that didn’t seem right to me (someone was telling me this isn’t good for my soul) and I’ve noticed her persona has changed quite a lot I also thought the break up with Joe was strange after 6 years she seemed completely fine about it while I don’t know the situation I speculate that her love for fame outweighs the love she had for Joe which is incredibly sad for her. Truth is I am searching for some truths to confirm my feelings about her and her music deep down I see through it all and I believe it’s been revealed to me I really wish I wasn’t so, as someone who is quite influential I wish she would use her platform to create good but i sadly see now that isn’t the path she is on or is leading her flowers on. I do hope someday she will repent and I will pray for her. Thank you for your video I do believe God is working through you and I hope your message reaches a-lot more people and can open the minds of others to see the truth in what’s happening in todays music. 🤍
You are 100% right. In February, I heard one of her new songs in the radio and I cried thinking people were going to kill themselves. It says something about “me being the problem” it offered only despair and no hope
This is complete bullshit. Have you listen to all Taylor’s songs? In her recent album and lead single “anti-hero” she clearly stated the she’s the problem and really aware with her struggle as human being. She wrote those lyrics as cathartic method and She nailed it with the introspective and self-critical thinking. I’m sure everybody can relate to this song. The motive and theme of her songs are majority about the complexity of the relationship, about her lover, her ex, her parents, her family, her friends, her band, her fans, her haters and even her cats. Her latest project that is album sisters called “folklore” and “evermore” took inspiration from fictional character with little snippet of her story life and talked about Mental Health, Child abuse, World War 2, PTSD, Pandemic, Infidelity, The Last Great American Dynasty (Her House) and so on. Who are you to judge? A GOD? Absolutely not. Don’t trash talk other people if you know nothing about them. At the end of the day Taylor doesn’t need validation from a random coward, ignorant and a bully like you guys. She’s living her best live by give back to the fans and society in so many ways. From buying house for the homeless and pregnant fans, paying college tuitions and bills, Christmas gift for the fans, giving donation for food bank in every city from her tour, and other good deeds that I couldn’t mention here. From what you said, clearly it’s a YOU problem and it’s not Taylor’s problem. Don’t blame Taylor for creating music as her cathartic method. Instead of blame others for no apparent reasons, blame yourself for not doing enough research.
When people sing along to it they are literally saying "it's me, hi, I'm the problem, it's me" over and over and over. Not to mention the line about going to hell.
@user-yg2eq1vx5n I'm talking about the line where she talks about someone in her family screaming out "she's laughing up at us from hell". You can read the lyrics.
Oh, I thought that song was hilarious: Not only did she admit she was the problem, but that if she kept that crap rolling, her future in-laws would know "She's laughing up at us from hell!" "The cats don't even LIKE the ocean!" one complained. ROFLMAO!!! -----BUT: But then she endorsed Biden, and is dating some Pfizer loving jock who abuses referees in pre-arranged sports-betting wars. BUH-BYE!
I can somewhat relate, but with Lana Del Rey. I wasn’t OBSESSED with her, and her music didn’t influence my behavior, but she was my favorite musical artist. To the point of wanting to play one of her songs, “video games”, as a first dance with my husband at our wedding. However, God convicted me, not to use her song due to the lyrics basically being blasphemous. Actually, Angela, your episode on secular music being satanic is what started to change my mind about her in the first place. I occasionally listen, but her lyrics are seriously just filth. Really, most secular music is trash and disgusting and I find myself cringing and unable to listen to anything anymore. I do love Lana’s music and her sound, but rarely ever ever listen.
this is such an interesting topic and I’m so happy that you posted this. I am a spirit filled born again Christian . I feel redeemed, but I listen to Taylor but now I feel I need to repent.
Music is SUCH a trigger for me. I was a singer…I spent YEARS wanting to be famous and I can say in humility I had the talent. My life went another direction and I felt SO sad at the time that I chose other things that only now do I realize saved my life. I know having been saved as a young girl beyond a shadow of a doubt that IF I had gone forward I would have lost myself. I’d be dead. I’m certain. I finally realize the hold music has over me. I cannot listen to even so called Christian music anymore without negative feelings. I used to sing in a praise band and even then I knew I was performing. The Amy Grants and others made it all so cool but it’s not. It’s not really worshipful a lot of the time. I can say the same about churches. So many are so surface. I stopped going. Only recently my son found a church and they only sing hymns from a hymnal and it moves my heart more than anything else. Music is very much used by Satan.
Love this podcast! I have had to break off the chains of secular music a few times. I’ve actually gone through a few seasons of tossing out music starting in highs school. Taylor, in my opinion and conviction from the Holy Spirit, is a very dangerous witch. I’ve bought a few of her albums and always felt compelled to get rid of them but yet I’ve felt a seducing spirit in her music, that keeps me interested. Her constant style change is a reflection of her growth in the craft.. in my opinion. There aren’t many female musicians who have had the long term success she has it isn’t just because she knows how to write a catchy song. There are certainly spiritual forces behind her. I think you touched on a few. She promotes toxic relationships and the disdain for marriage number one. I can hear the new age twin flame concept in there too.. which is crazy because I’ve followed that stuff and was convicted of how evil it is. There’s so much more I wish I could say, I’m glad I found you from Vlads channel.. One more thing, I was obsessed with Jakob Dylan from the wallflowers.. back in high school.. I stopped listening to their music for many yrs until I got baited and fell into lust .. and I kid you not, the desire to play that music came back with full force almost like it was needed to create a better atmosphere for the lust I was having. The familiar spirits know us well.
This is so so good!!!! Thank you for this!!!You are not overreacting! You are fulfilling THE WORD OF GOD. Thank you precious lady & thank you Dear Lord for pouring out YOUR HOLY SPIRIT upon her with your wisdom, knowledge & your spirit is upon this precious lady’s lips! ❤️❤️❤️
So thankful for your life and for your deliverance from these “idols”. Thank you for bringing it to light to everyone else, I will be sharing with many of my friends ❤
This is fire! 🔥 If I had been given the words, these are all the ones I would have used! Once again, I am so inspired by your boldness. Prayers for continued strength of this level! 🙏 And congratulations on your marriage! Welcome to the couple club!
i'd heard some arguments from Christians not to listen to her a few yrs ago, but I simply overlooked some of her blatantly ungodly lyrics. this made me delete her from my library completely. I'm convinced. Unfortunately I related to what you shared on her music's negative influence on me. Great points Angela! Amazingly honest testimony, ty. May God bless your future marriage!
This video is amazing especially the way you compare her lyrics with the scriptures it’s genius! I’ve loved music my whole life it was definitely an idol and I could sing the lyrics of every song I loved but I never fully read and understood the lyrics something we should pay attention to
Girl! I love this video. God bless you and your mission to inform people of the truth about the industry, Jesus, and the Bible. I love channels that talk about these things. Keep it up. Beautiful prayer at the end by the way.😇🧡🙏
@@noel56879I began feeling the same when I listened to the Beatles, Zeppelin & Hendrix. The Lord spoke to me. I stopped. Once I did, I had much more peace, purpose and fruit. Quit cigarettes and alcohol, too. All God's grace & empowerment for my obedience.
I'm sure she casts spells onto her audience tbh. her music was never addicting like that to me but she seems to have that effect on a lot of people. it wouldn't surprise me at all
God Bless you young lady!!! I was an Actor for 30yrs! Worked for Eminem in music videos and Michael Bay/ Spielberg in The Island movie! Professional Model! I thought I had it all!!! My life was a TRAINWRECK! Married 3 times by 28 yrs old! 5 kids! I finally met a Wonderful girl at 30!! We've been blessed to be together for 25yrs!!! We're both Saved by Jesus Christ and I QUIT ACTING!! My life is so much better!!! I lost my 26yr old son Frankie to drugs!!! I have Jesus Christ too get me through that!!! Amen!!!❤ JESUS CHRIST IS EVERYTHING!!! God bless Frank Balazs
The part where you mentioned demons entering, doors being opened for them to have legal entry of control, reminded me of when I visited a middle school with a team from my church and taught on the darkness and demonic content in music, lyrics, symbols and such. That night, while I was in bed asleep, I woke up to a demonic presence over me, holding me down, choking me and all I could barely say was "Jesus", and the thing left. We came against the treasured door of the devil when we exposed his use of the power and influence of music.
I've never been a TS fan, but everything you're saying here is exactly how I've always felt about her music and her public persona. I am a musician as well, trying to put out music that is True, Good, and Beautiful in a world full of demonic possession.
I gave up listening to secular songs the moment I understand the gravity of the spiritual influences that’s behind music. I recommend switching entirely to classical music or find Christian artists who makes similar genres to the songs that you used to listen to… there are a lot good Christian songs out there on the rise 🙌 hope this suggestion helps anyone who’s struggling to let go of their fav worldly music/artists
Thanks for talking about this. It's kind of shocking to hear, but always necessary. I felt what you said about young woman and the topic of suffering, I happen to be catholic since being a little girl and always continued my life in church, in young groups, but I've been getting older. I'm 24 now, and there's such pressure from the world and also life in general to be in a stable relationship, have a family and a marriage, etc. I happen to have anything of that, not because I don't wanna, it just it's the way it's simply not happening. Since the pandemic I kind of felt in love again with the lyricist of Taylor and begin to be his fan, I felt kinda listened and touched by some of her work. But as you say, being a fan is a replacement for God. Flesh wants us the be slaves, I see this. I always say to my friends that is key to runaway sometimes from this obsessions, you can hear it but you need to be reminded of this constructed narratives, the victim complex as you say. I thank this perpective to my Consagration to the Inmmaculate Heart of Mary, a process of 9 months where I learned about doctrine and the three enemies of the soul. Again, Thanks. I hope you mantain the humility and obedience, I pray for us all to learn about not having idols who replace our beloved Jesus and Holy Father. Lots of hugs
Thank you so much for sharing. It's been a while I see and I hope you are doing very well. I am going to research the 3 enemies of the soul. I feel God lead me here so thank you. God bless you.
Speak on it‼️Many Christians do not take the spiritual aspect of music seriously. I was never a huge fan of Taylor swift, but I used to listen to a few of her songs. For me, I used to be obsessed with K-pop and some other American artists like Doja Cat & Chloe x Halle, but I had to stop listening to them because of the demonic things they promoted like sexual immorality & witchcraft. Some secular music artists make it obvious they are for Satan’s Kingdom, but other artists do it in more subtle ways. I pray these artists will surrender to God. It’s sad to see.
The music business is an evil cesspool. I was in it and always got cheated out publishing and sales. Now I just post my music on RU-vid and Bandcamp. Better to be obscure and keep one's soul.
