The Contemporary Christian Music Scene Is Imploding As Artist After Artist Is Renouncing Faith In Jesus Christ To Follow The New Age ‘Universal Christ’

% of readers think this story is Fact. Add your two cents.


Grammy-winning vocalist Kevin Max, a member of the popular Christian band DC Talk who has released music in multiple genres, revealed over the weekend that he considers himself to be an ‘exvangelical’ who follows the ‘universal christ’.

I have been a musician since the age of 9 years old, a songwriter and performing artist for many years in addition to working as an actor in Hollywood before getting saved in 1991. You would think that someone with my background in the performing arts would be a natural fit in the Contemporary Christian Music scene, but you would be wrong. From the moment I got saved, the songs that resonated with my born again spirit were the old hymns like ‘Blessed Assurance’, ‘Saved By The Blood’, and countless others that sing of Jesus Christ. Contemporary Christian Music sings not of Jesus Christ, but the ‘universal christ’ of the New Age.

Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly in all wisdom; teaching and admonishing one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing with grace in your hearts to the Lord.” Colossians 3:16 (KJB)

In 2021, as the spirit of Antichrist continues to rise over a lost and fallen world, the pretend christians of CCM are revealing their true colors. DC Talk is a band I never liked from the moment I saw the Eye of Horus on their album cover for ‘Jesus Freak’. No Jesus there, just freaks. Now DC Talk band member Kevin Max has come out as an ‘exvangelical’, and wants the world to meet the Universal Christ of the New Age. You might know this ‘universal christ’ by another name, Satan.

Now, lest you think I am being overly harsh in my assessment, please review the following:

If you are hooked up with with the Contemporary Christian Music scene, attend a Laodicean megachurch, or listen to anyone who sings about a ‘universal christ’, you need to run from that junk and repent of it immediately. If not, you just may wind up as an ‘exvangelical’ who is ‘deconstructing’ your faith Jesus Christ.

DC Talk’s Kevin Max says he’s an ‘exvangelical’: ‘Deconstructing’ and ‘progressing’

FROM THE CHRISTIAN POST: “Hello, my name is Kevin Max & I’m an #exvangelical,” he tweeted Saturday, sparking a large response from many of his Christian followers. Some praised the musician’s post claiming they were also exvangelicals, a term that has been used commonly in recent years to describe individuals who no longer identify as evangelicals. Others on social media stated they had never heard the term, which has been associated with progressive Christians who have left evangelical Christianity due to theological or political reasons in recent years.

In response to a social media user who said Max no longer believed in Jesus, the “Jesus Freak” singer quipped, “Nope, didn’t say that, read text carefully.” In another post, Max clarified that he still follows “the Universal Christ.”

“I have no idea how many peoples blogs or podcasts are using that announcement for further division, but I’m here for The Grace,” he assured. The musician added further detail on his Twitter thread.

“For all those people using my post as plug & play for your own hot take or personal discourse, I offer the lyrics to an upcoming song off of my new band @AstronautsSad album ‘Adult Fears’ titled: ‘It’s okay’…. I’m sorry for being obtuse or difficult but it’s a process… love.”

The lyrics to the song read:

This year marked the first time since the Gallup organization started tracking data that fewer than 50% of Americans belong to a church or religious organization.

BreakPointreported that some of the people leaving the church are joining a growing demographic known as the “nones.” Religious “nones” consist of people who reject all religious affiliation, and some of these people are also known as exvangelicals. The overall movement is called “deconstruction,” meaning deconstructing one’s faith and leaving the church. Many who are “deconstructing” have spoken out about their experiences getting hurt by people inside the Church. Others have cited their rejection of biblical teaching on sexuality as the reason they are disassociating.

Max has made a living as a vocalist in bands that promote the Christian message, such as DC Talk alongside bandmates TobyMac and Michael Tait. He also sang for Audio Adrenaline. Max has been speaking out for some time about his resistance to a particular version of Christianity. In an interview in December with Decent Christian Talk podcast, Max explained where he is on his journey in deconstructing.

“I like to call it deconstruction, reconstruction,” he said. “Any person that’s really changing every day, which we do, you’re going to deconstruct or you’re going to reconstruct. So it’s a combination of both of those things,” he said. “I’ve been deconstructing for decades. I’ve always been progressing, as you can say, and then sometimes I regress. But I think where I’m at right now is I’ve really gone on a journey to find out what I truly believe in by reading a lot, thinking a lot, keeping my eyes and ears open.”

The musician has always been vocal about his thoughts online. While his comments online have been met with resistance, Max said he’s always been “a believer.”

“But I’m questioning a lot of things, and I’ve got more questions than answers,” he said. His beliefs are also reflected in his music. READ MORE

      IF SUDDENLY your SOUL is RAPTURED to HEAVEN to stand in front of JESUS CHRIST and HE offers YOU the CHOICE to STAY in HEAVEN or to return back to EARTH then do as I did and ask to return back to Earth.

      
HEAVEN is a FALSE LIGHT TRAP of SATAN whereby you get sent back to Earth to be born all over again.

      
I refused to stay in HEAVEN and returned back to my Earth life of 1993.

      
In October 2003: I broke through into HELL itself and survived and returned to Earth.

      
In December 2003: GOD arranged that I met (my wife) my ONE TRUE LOVE (My Eternal Beloved “Twin Flame”).

      
GOD HIMSELF came down into our room in London, United Kingdom in ALL of HIS DIVINE MAJESTY and GLORY to PERSONALLY BLESS Our Sacred Eternal Twin Flame Marriage and then we “merged” mind body soul and spirit “AS ONE” with GOD and we “ASCENDED” each other across” in a tsunami tidal wave of magical fairy tale enchantment” to GODS PURE GOLDEN SPIRITUAL REALM PARADISE KINGDOM “HOME” OF TIMELESS INFINITE ETERNAL MULTIDIMENSIONAL UNIVERSE SHATTERING ORGASMIC UNCONDITIONAL LOVE, BLISS, PEACE POWER, JOY, GLORY, ECSTASY AND HAPPINESS, FOREVER!

      You cannot just avoid darkness by not participating in it and staying on the sunny side of the street.

      
August 1993: I had followed only THE LIGHT, and my soul and spirit were “raptured” for real to heaven itself – I was asked if I wanted to stay in Heavens glory or return to Earth. I chose to go back to Earth!

      
Heaven was real – but THE LIGHT OF HEAVEN was not what I had been searching for – it was not the answer.

      
So having managed to break through into HEAVEN itself – I then decided to break through into HELL itself!

      
For the (entire) next Ten years, I suffered from “infinite agonising physical and mental torture” called ASCENSION SYMPTOMS https://ascensionsymptoms.com/ascension-signs-and-symptoms.html while I was night and day studying and pushing forwards in my mind – until one day I finally broke through into HELL and went to bed happy!


      I slept for barely an hour, got up, walked into my living room, sensed a presence, and turned to see “THE HAT MAN (SHADOW PERSON / JINN) DEMON” (standing there in broad daylight), who then telepathically attacked me, and dragged me to HELL itself! 
I barely survived and returned to Earth.

      
The Moral of this story being that you CANNOT just concentrate on THE LIGHT ONLY and AVOID having to journey through THE DARKNESS!

      
In my case I purposely went looking for THE DARKNESS – and purposely UNLOCKED the DARKNESS – on PLANET EARTH!

      
I UNLOCKED “THE DARKNESS” WHICH EVERYONE NOW PLAINLY SEES AROUND THEM!

    • Twinflame1111

      If you DON’T go looking for IT – IT eventually will COME TO YOU!

      
YOU CANNOT AVOID THE DARKNESS!

      
DO NOT FEAR “THE DARKNESS”

      
DO NOT FEAR “THE HAT MAN”

      
DO NOT REACT TO THEM.

      
JUST CALMLY ENDURE THE HORRIBLE DARKNESS AND PAIN.

      
YOU WILL NOT BE HARMED.

      
DO NOT HARM YOURSELF OR OTHERS

      
PRAY FOR “HEAVENS LIGHT” AND HANG ON AND SURVIVE AND “HEAVENS LIGHT” WILL VERY SOON APPEAR FOR REAL to wash away “THE (UNBEARABLE HORRIBLE) DARKNESS”!
      
YOU ARE THEN OVER THE WORST!

      
GREAT GLORY AND ADVENTURE SOON AWAITS YOU!

      
GOD BLESS!

      LIGHT and DARK of HEAVEN and HELL cancel each other out – and THEN are replaced with THE ONE “TRUE” MOST HIGH FATHER ORIGINAL SOURCE CREATOR GODS “PURE GOLDEN SPIRITUAL PARADISE KINGDOM” OF TIMELESS INFINITE ETERNAL ORGASMIC MULTIDIMENSIONAL LOVE BLISS PEACE POWER JOY GLORY ECSTASY HAPPINESS FOREVER!

    • Twinflame1111

      The Darkness (of hell) and the Light (of heaven) are the “two sides” of Satan The False god of this Dark Matrix Prison Planet Earth.

      
Satan is NOT mankind’s true GOD!

      
The real GOD is The One “True” Most High Father (Original Source) Creator God who contains neither darkness nor light. HE instead is of PURE GOLDEN INFINITE LOVE.

      
Mankind will refuse to rapture to Satan’s false light heaven.

      
Mankind will instead “unplug” from The Matrix.

      
Mankind will then “merge” with GOD and become spiritually AS ONE with HIM.

      
Mankind will then “ascend” to the Pure Golden Spiritual Paradise Kingdom Home Of The One “True” Most High Father Original Source Creator God of Timeless Infinite Eternal Multidimensional Orgasmic Unconditional Love Bliss Peace Power Joy Glory Ecstasy Happiness, Forever!

    • Twinflame1111

      DO NOT BE DECEIVED!

      
ALIENS ARE NOT YOUR SAVIOURS

      
ALIENS ARE NOT YOUR GODS

      
ALIENS ARE NOT YOUR CREATORS

      
ALIENS are DEMONS in disguise whose grand plan is to turn ALL mankind in to “SUPER-SOLDIER-ROBOT-DEMON-HYBID-SLAVES-OF-SATAN” who will be used as cannon fodder in SATANS ULTIMATE BATTLE against THE ONE “TRUE” MOST HIGH FATHER ORIGINAL SOURCE CREATOR GOD!

      
Anyone who supports ALIENS is in league with SATAN.

      
SATAN IS THE “FALSE” god OF THIS WORLD who is AT WAR against THE ONE “TRUE” MOST HIGH FATHER (ORIGINAL SOURCE) CREATOR GOD!

      
PRAY ONLY TO “THE ONE TRUE MOST HIGH FATHER ORIGINAL SOURCE CREATOR GOD” WHO SITS ABOVE ALL – ABOVE JESUS ABOVE SATAN ABOVE DEMONS ABOVE ALIENS!

      
MANKIND’S DESTINY IS TO “UNPLUG” FROM “SATANS DARK MATRIX PRISON PLANET EARTH TRAP” AND THEN TO SPIRITUALLY “ASCEND” HOME TO “THE ONE TRUE MOST HIGH FATHER ORIGINAL SOURCE CREATOR GOD” TO LIVE IN “GODS PURE GOLDEN SPIRITUAL PARADISE KINGDOM” OF TIMELESS INFINITE ETERNAL MULTIDIMENSIONAL UNIVERSE SHATTERING ORGASMIC UNCONDITIONAL LOVE BLISS PEACE POWER JOY GLORY ECSTASY AND HAPPINESS, FOREVER!

      Jesus Christ is LIGHT and LOVE which is GREAT and which I support 101%.

      However, I discovered than an EVEN GREATER “MOST HIGHEST LOVE” EXISTS that sits ABOVE and BEYOND Jesus Christ.

      Diagram…

      THE ONE “TRUE” MOST HIGH GOD

      (SITS ABOVE AND BEYOND ALL)!
      _______________________________

      JESUS (LIGHT) HEAVEN

      SATAN (DARKNESS) HELL

      (HEAVEN AND HELL EXIST BELOW THE MOST HIGH GOD)!

      LIGHT and DARK both “LOSE” as they CANCEL each other OUT – leaving THE ONE TRUE MOST HIGH FATHER ORIGINAL SOURCE CREATOR GOD as SUPREME where HE has ALWAYS (ETERNALLY) SAT ABOVE ALL!

      The Light of Jesus is “one half” of Satan – The Darkness Of Satan is the “other half”.

      The One True Most High Father Original Source Creator GOD is ABOVE and BEYOND ALL (and contains zero darkness)!

      “Jesus Light” and Satans Dark” are parts within
      A GIANT SIMULATION OF GOD (built by GOD) to be used as “stepping stones” to reach HIM – THE ONE TRUE “REAL” MOST HIGH GOD!
