Descent Into Darkness: Katy Perry Renounces The Christian Faith

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


“For the love of money is the root of all evil” – 1 Timothy 6:10.

Pop Mega-Star Katy Perry recently made waves in the Christian media when she announced that she is not a Christian and is an adherent to the New Age Movement. While there may be shock and sadness over this announcement, Beginning and End has chronicled the blatant sinful rebellion that has been a part of Perry’s music and videos for years. Her announcement is yet another sign of pop culture’s open movement away from God and the promotion of anything to do with the Christian faith.

Perry started her career as a Contemporary Christian Music or CCM singer. When she did not achieve the financial success she envisioned for herself, she turned to pop music. Her first big smash single “I Kissed A Girl” was a celebration of lesbian exploration. The song, which led her to first multi-platinum album, launched Perry into superstardom and gave her legions of young adoring female fans who were captivated by her powerful voice and style. And thus the decision to sacrifice the faith in God and Christian values was made and Perry’s hit single became an anthem for girls to consider the fun and “coolness” of sinful rebellion against The Lord.

In the video below, Perry describes it herself:

As the verses above indicate, it is impossible to make fame and wealth the ultimate goal in one’s life and to serve God. 1 Timothy 6:10  says: “For the love of money is the root of all evil: which while some coveted after, they have erred from the faith, and pierced themselves through with many sorrows.” Scripture is clear that Satan can bestow Earthly riches on those who choose to follow him. When Jesus Christ was tempted by the Devil in the wilderness, the Bible explains this:

The offer to the Messiah was not an idle one. Satan was literally offering Jesus Christ the kingdoms of the world, of which Satan has temporary authority over, as God allows [B&E: this is shown in greater detail in Chapter 1 of the Book of Job for those who want more information on this topic]. Quoting the Bible back to the Adversary, Jesus Christ resisted the Devil’s temptation and rightly proclaimed that only God in Heaven should be worshiped. Yet 2,000 years later, Satan still extends that offer to many people. And while it may not be in a face-to-face conversation as it was with Jesus Christ, it comes in the form of executives offering million-dollar contracts and a lavish celebrity lifestyle in exchange for influencing the world away from God and into sin.

Since the time of her first single, Perry has gone on to become one of the most successful singers of all time. All the while she became famous for her oversexed image. Wearing skimpy outfits, appearing nude in music videos and enticing lust in the eyes of her fans have become a Perry trademark. In her song, “E.T.” she sings about sexual relations with an alien, who could possibly be “the Devil.” (We covered this song in detail in our article Katy Perry’s “E.T.” Song And Video – Alien Deception Strikes Again). So from very early in her pop career, the abandoning of the Christian faith was apparent.

A Child Of The Devil?

Like many artists who openly oppose God, Perry has used occult imagery in her songs and videos.

In our article Katy Perry’s Dad: “Katy Is A Child Of The Devil”, Beginning and End detailed the UK Sun’s story about a sermon in which Katy Perry’s dad, Keith Hudson, referred to his superstar daughter as “a child of the devil.” Both of Perry’s parents are pastors and believers in Charismatic Christianity, which involves a host of unbiblical practices. But her father’s apparent regrets over Perry’s career choices were obvious:

And this is what the world wants. To take what was once for God and turn into something of the world. Perry’s descent into rebellion has not stopped her pastor mother from supporting her. Her mother serves as her manager and travels with Perry on tour. So rather than rebuking their daughter with Godly instruction as the Bible commands, Perry’s mother has joined in on the multi-million dollar enterprise that is her pop star daughter. And this compromise in the faith always opens the door for the enemy to infiltrate.

Katy Perry’s album, using her real name, when she was a Christian artist.

So did Perry “lose her salvation”? How does this dangerous transition take place? Jesus Christ, in one of his parables describes Christians who follow the same spiritual road Perry has.  In the parable Jesus describes a sower- a farmer who is planting seeds on different surfaces.

As Jesus explained, the seeds in the parable were a metaphor for The Word of God or the Bible. And the different surfaces were the different types of responses people can have to hearing the Gospel message. For many, Satan uses whatever temptation necessary to let them no longer care about the Christian faith. Sometimes it can be persecution. Or a difficult experience. Or it can be the lure of riches and worldly desires. All these things can make someone who claims to be a Christian soon renounce their faith. But since they never truly had a strong “root” or foundation, they never truly received Jesus in their hearts to begin with.

To no surprise, Perry has now turned to the New Age movement. She cited Eckhart Tolle as in inspiration for one her songs. Tolle, a New Age movement guru, is the author of books such as “A New Earth” and “The Power of Now” which teach a message that each individual person has godhood within them. And through various mystical practices, this divine spark can be released. Thus there is no need for the God of the Bible, Jesus Christ, salvation or forgiveness of sin. Heaven and Hell are also non-existent and the idea of believing in a God should be abandoned.

At the 2:00 mark in the video below, Oprah Winfrey one of the greatest promoters of New Age doctrine in the world, interviews Tolle on his spiritual message. In his responses and her explanation of his writings, it is clear that much, if not all of it runs contrary to Biblical Christianity.

Perry also claimed to be a practitioner of transcendental meditation, also a New Age practice which involves reciting a mantra, or single phrase, repeatedly, in order to achieve greater spiritual consciousness. When Jesus Christ taught His disciples how to pray, he specific reference to this practice: “But when ye pray, use not vain repetitions, as the heathen do: for they think that they shall be heard for their much speaking.” (Matthew 6:7).

The spiritual descent from The Lord will always lead to occult spiritual practices. And Perry gave even more confirmation of this with the new artwork for her new single Dark Horse:

Note the All-Seeing Eye at the top of the image.  The All-Seeing Eye of Horus, also known as the All-Seeing Eye of Lucifer. Christian news site Cutting Edge writes:

 You Can Always Return To Christ

From her own statements, it’s clear that Katy Perry received the seeds of the Gospel. But the message of the salvation in Jesus Christ did not take root. She was not the “good soil” that Jesus Christ described in his parable. But this does not mean it is over for her. There are many people who may have visited church or started studying the Bible for a season, only to abandon the faith as time went on – whether it was because life became busy, they were turned off by the people at a certain church or just lost interest. Maybe this has happened to you. But this does not mean that God has written you off. Scripture is clear that God: “not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance.” (2 Peter 3:9). If you are a Christian, pray for Katy Perry to repent and truly learn and  believe the Biblical Gospel – to know that through faith in Jesus Christ there can be forgiveness of sins and eternal life. No amount of money or fame is worth eternal punishment in hell. And maybe one day Perry will realize this and promote Christ over money, fame and sinful rebellion.

      She’s growing & maturing! Good for her! Testing the spirits…she’s commanded to do this, so hmmmm…shut up?

      • Anonymous

        I don’t think she is “maturing”. Her songs really have little to do with “maturing”. And testing the spirits is something that those who are strong in Christ are to do. You know….the saints. She hardly qualifies as a saint. Those who are not strong in Christ will more than likely get seduced by the familiar spirits.

      Go into your inner most room….
      Enter into the temple made without hands so tell me what is the temple made without hands?
      That is the bible.
      Who and not to mention the kingdom of heaven is within you…….
      Meditation is simply going into ones self.
      The sides of your head is where your temples are.
      So the only way to enter into that is through meditation.
      There are many people who profess to be Christian
      that are lying greedy and cheats, and are extremely unforgiving.
      The bible even has a story that says if you cannot forgive how can you expect
      forgiveness…

        “The bible even has a story that says if you cannot forgive how can you expect
        forgiveness…”

        What you mean exactly like the biblical deity, who needs to butcher his own son as a blood sacrifice before it can forgive peoples piffling misnomers?

        :lol:

      Yeah she sux… illuminati scum…Go with the real GOD, Jesus’s father, the Prime Creator.

      good for you katy, break the chains of the christian dogma

      ““No man can serve two masters: for either he will hate the one, and love the other; or else he will hold to the one, and despise the other. Ye cannot serve God and [money].- Jesus Christ, Matthew 6:24.”

      Good advice. Shame America does the complete opposite by electing religious politicians. You cannot serve two masters. They have their own agenda, their religion, not the interests of the whole. Americans, the descendants of people who fled their home countries from religious persecution should understand that perfectly,.. shame they ignore their own history. They never learn by their mistakes.

      :lol:

      Way to go Katy!

      Congrats on trading up to a higher and better form of mind control.

      Well, at least you’re free from the wolf-in-sheep’s-clothing known as christianity, which is anything but, so I suppose your change is positive on at least one level.

      Too bad all the mainstream religions on this planet are specifically crafted to deprive you of your power and make you a perfect little sycophant, and that is being generous in their description.

      Perhaps more need to wake up and understand their own true spiritual nature and that all religions are a control vector to keep the herd in check, nothing more — including the so-called “New Age.”

      And so it goes.

      The vast majority of Christians merely lose their souls and cease to exist. God is very specific though about those who lead people away from Him and into religious behavior. They will achieve immortality, though their eternal spirit will dwell in a place of darkness and despair.

      • Neo

        No such thing as ‘ceasing to exist’, it’s not in the bible. We are all made immortal from the get-go, there’s no ‘achieving immortality’.

      • Pix

        What you mean ‘dwell in a place of darkness and despair’ like any eternal existence wouldn’t be a place of despair? I’d give myself a thousand or so years, then I’d be begging for oblivion… bored to death, with no death in sight, if that is not despairing I don’t know what is. Any eternal existence, no matter the conditions, would become a hell sooner or later.

        :lol:

        • Saber

          Do you have any proof… or is this just another one of your opinions? How do you know anything at all about what any eternal life would be like? Are you just projecting this opinion from the perspective of being stuck in one particular geographic location on this globe, or from a spiritual perspective?
          who says time even exists as we know it on other plains of existence or dimensions? Your thoughts on eternal life seem to be rather one dimensional.

        • Mayhem

          Do you reckon 1,000 years would be enough, do you, Pix? Apparently i only use 10% of the brain i was given. I reckon it’d take just about forever to get the other 90% of it working properly. There’s a lot of stupid to fix but you already know that.

    • WTX

      Quote Katy Perry.
      “but I still feel like I have a deep connection with God”

      She is actually a Muslim, but she still don’t know that. Only in Islam there is direct connection with God without any intermediates.

      http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-1343954/100-000-Islam-converts-living-UK-White-women-keen-embrace-Muslim-faith.html

      Convert: Lauren Booth, the sister-in-law of former Prime Minister Tony Blair, attracted a lot of publicity when she announced she had adopted the Islamic faith last year

      Fiyaz Mughal, director of Faith Matters, said: ‘Conversion to Islam has been stigmatised by the media and wrongly associated with extremist ideologies and discriminatory cultural practices.’

      New Occult Terrorizm is not Islam at all.

      It was invented by the Cabal.

      • Mayhem

        @WTX who says…

        “Only in Islam there is direct connection with God without any intermediates.”

        … Are you reading The Word? Maybe you missed this bit…

        MATTHEW 6:9-15 (the Lords prayer)

        … Who is it that we are to address? It is Father, YHWH, Creator. We do this in the Name of His Son, Yehoshua. That is not an intermediary; you are confusing the Way to Salvation, John 14:6, and it’s poor form.

    • Proudliberal

      Good for her ! One loess Christian is always an improvement ! I don’t believe in the New Age any more than I believe in Christianity, but at least New Agers aren’t narrow-minded, intolerant. self-righteous jerks who think that unless you’re a born again Bible-believing evangelical Christian
      your doomed to eternal hellfire and who think they have the right to stick their slimy little noses into other people’s bedrooms and judge them ,unlike evangelical Christians .
      And I’ve never heard of a New Ager who was bigoted toward gay people .

      • Mayhem

        Wah wah, leave all the queers alone, they don’t like being reminded what YHWH thinks of their abominable practices.

        1 Corinthians 6:9 “abusers of themselves with mankind” G733 “arsenokoitas”
        1 Timothy 1:10 “defile themselves with mankind” G733 “arsenokoitas”

        Am i a bigot? Perhaps but where is my fear, loathing and disgust? I’m simply intolerant as i am commanded to be.

    • whyohwhyohspellsyoyo

      You Christians are a judgmental lot aren’t you, your not too far removed from Muslims. Worry about yourself, if you convert more, the queue to get in to heaven will be longer when hey zuse comes to collect you all from damnation. Think about it, your slowing your entry up, let us rot in hell.

    • YellowRoseTx51

      Well, it is true that the satanic cults have the arts industry by the short hairs. They own it.
      But at least her rhetoric is that she is not adhering to a religion. Not that she disbelieves in God.
      However, the satanic groups have said that before too. Their god is Satan.
      We’ll have to wait and see about Perry.

    • Big Craig

      ‘Greatest singers of all time’???????

      I actually vomited a little reading that.

      good grief no wonder we are in such a pickle.

    • Logicgirl

      My bible says God is the only judge. “Judge not lest thou be judged”. God knows everyone’s heart and HE will judge them. God looks upon the heart, and we don’t know other peoples hearts. So unless you are God, stop passing judgement. Find something more positive to do with the gift of life God gave you.
