Gospel Rapper Spread the Christian Message in Arabic

God wants to be glorified throughout all the earth. He's using Gospel Rappers to spread His life saving message through rap. Christian rap is not just a music genre heard in the United State, Canada, and Europe. Christian Rappers are now in the Middle East. Two men of God are rapping for Jesus in Arabic.

Charles Makriss and Marun Adulph are Gospel rappers in Lebanon. Yeah you read correctly. These Gospel rappers are rapping in a country mostly known to be a Muslim country. Isn't God good. They are not wearing long sheets for clothing or turbines to cover their heads. They wear baggy jeans and baseball caps just like the Christian Rappers in America and abroad.

Hip-hop is not new to the Arab world. There are dozens of Arab rap groups. Charles and Marun's group is called Militia. They are the first to sing Christian hip-hop in Arabic. Their first concerts were very hostile. People didn't know how to recieve them. However they kept on rapping for the Lord.

Islamic law prevents the singing of passages from the Koran. Nevertheless the Bible, via the Psalms exhorts believers to worship Jehovah through song and music. The group has won some backing from the influential Maronite Church. It's the largest Christian grouping in Lebanon.

Brothers and sister in Christ in America have similar struggles in trying to get the message of Christ through Christian rap because of religious barriers. Some Gospel rappers are not allowed to minister in the congregations to which they are members. Many Gospel rappers are independent artist with no widely known label to support or promote them.
