Has Tyler Perry missed it?

Jesus said that by their fruits you shall know them. I love Tyler Perry's movies. He is so so talented. But the more I look at the message he is passing through his movies, the more I begin to wonder. It sounds Christian but something is def wrong with the message. I don't know if anyone has noticed it as well.


Tyler Perry started off well. He grew up in Louisiana, strongly influenced by his God-fearing mother, who took him to church regularly. 

But recent developments calls for attention as pointed out in this article I am about to publish. It was written by a concerned person who hopes that Tyler will return to pleasing God like he initially did.

Titled 'An appeal to Tyler Perry to return to pleasing God', he wrote:

'Disturbing Developments 

1. Films going from obnoxious to offensive.

Early on, I like millions enjoyed Tyler's comedic films featuring the Madea character. Sure, she was a bit over the top and annoying, but almost all of it was in good-natured fun.
Not anymore!
We stopped patronizing the previously, family-friendly franchise awhile back. Now it's been brought to my attention that allegedly his latest offering, Boo2! had an R rating from the Motion Picture Association of America until Perry made changes to raise the bar.

 This movie features teenage girls' escapades at an all-night Halloween party with frat guys in a house where 14 youths were murdered. The storyline serves up "wholesome" family fun including: getting drunk, smoking dope, "hooking up," crude double entendres, profane language and repeated misuse of God's name.
 
Sure, Madea and her comrades will try to fetch them, but honestly, do we have to sink so low for entertainment? Slapstick and silliness are one thing, but seduction, sensuality and sin are still another.

Producers don't have to resort to cheesy, unrealistic productions to communicate authentic stories and life lessons.

C'mon Tyler, don't let Hollywood lure you away from your roots and religious foundations. And while we're serving you with some constructive criticism because we honestly love and deeply care about you, there's a second concern.


2. Departing from pleasing God to promiscuity with your lady friend.

Almost everyone knows that the best indicator of success for children is an intact nuclear family with a married father and mother. 

With the state of the black family in serious decline and the number of African-American children born out of wedlock now at a shockin 72 percent, there is a critical need for visible black leaders to regain the moral high ground and be godly examples.

Mr. Perry often refers to the trauma of his dysfunctional childhood experience with the man who was not really his father and who mistreated him. How might his life have been different if he was reared in a home with a godly father and mother married to each other, obeying biblical standards, committed to doing the will of God?

Not long ago, unfortunately, Tyler began veering off God's clear path for men and women regarding marriage and family. Millions who look to him as a role model for their lives and their children were shocked. He and his girlfriend, model Gelila,  are reported not to be married but rather living together("lifestyle fornication"). In 2014, they had an out-of-wedlock baby boy, Aman.

The same article says Oprah Winfrey is one of their son's godmothers. Tyler says that the best advice Oprah's given him is this: "Just live in the moment. Just be present in what is going on in your life." He says, "For me, I just want to make sure that I'm enjoying it as much as I can."

Here's the deal: material success and New Age advice from people like Oprah Winfrey have influenced Tyler Perry on a dangerous and deceptive path. 


For millions of us who have followed his career and pointed scores of our youth in his direction, now is the time to pray for his turnaround to once again please the God who has so richly blessed him.

  1. There was a time i advised myself that enough of Tyler Perry's movies because the messages and all were so unchristian-like. I cannot judge him but can only censored what i feed my eyes and mind on. But i think he has gone his own way other than God's way.

Celebrities sell their souls to the devil for fame and fortune

It is said that most Hollywood celebrities, to get to where they are today, made a deal with the devil...they sold their souls for fame and fortune. By selling their souls they submit to Satan so that he totally uses, enslaves and possesses their life, body, mind, will and soul. Satan's goal and agenda becomes theirs. Their life is no more their own. So let it not surprise you when their songs or movies serve Satan's purpose of driving men into deeper darkness. These celebrities are idolized and literally worshiped but clearly they serve Satan and channel demonic spirits through their music and movies. From the likes of Madonna,Jay Z, Beyonce, Lady Gaga, Rihanna, Nicky Minaj ,Eminem, Bob Dylan and so so many others, these are known to be demon possessed having sold their souls to the devil. Melyssa Ford, a Canadian hip hop model and actress ,said in an interview, "If your ultimate goal is to be famous, you have to do a lot to get there like sign your name in blood i

Late Hollywood actress, Marilyn Monroe, told Billy Graham, "I don't need your Jesus."

She had the perfect life anyone could dream of; remarkable wealth and great fame. Despite all that, Marilyn kept all of her sufferings to herself. One day during filming, a preacher named Billy Graham visited her. He said the Spirit of God had sent him to preach to her. After hearing what the Preacher had to say, she said: "I don't need your Jesus". During that time, Monroe who was allegedly having a romantic affair with the President of the United States, John F Kennedy. A week later, she was found dead in her bedroom. Theories of her death started to spread. Some say she was assassinated because of political conspiracies and in the end, the most accepted theory up to this day is she committed suicide. It shows that she was suffering from a severe depression. In fact it is actually the right time for her to seek God, asking for help, not to take the easy way out by taking her own life. *Hmmm... One day soon I will write on Marily

See how music is used to cast spells...(A must read)

We love music, but do you know there could be more to music than we bargained for? The devil is desperate and we should not be ignorant of his devices and this is one of them. One weapon that he always uses is subtlety . Here's what I pulled from a Wiccan website concerning Magickal music or let me say how they cast spells in music: "A magick spell is the integration of an intent with a physical representation of that intent.  "For instance, when you make a Witch’s spell pouch, out of a cloth and some herbs and oils and objects, each of those items represents a part of your intent. And in the magick, you are binding those two things: your intention and the physical world. "This brings your intention into form in the physical world. That's how magick spells work. In magickal music, the intention is wrapped up into a song, and bound into it. "When I create magickal songs, I do it with the guidance of the Divine. In a meditative state
