Beautiful, thanks for sharing. If anyone can not see the beauty before their own judgment, they need light not persecution. Positive to you @sneak

An angel who is part of the Christian Trail @ Steemit chose to share this with the community, I hope you can see the beauty one day

Thank you for sharing angels

You are welcome @digit

Thank you for kind words :-)

Thank you for sharing this. It really brightened up my morning.

You are welcome my friend, I am glad it has pleased you.

I love Lindsey Stirling, thanks for sharing this !

This is lovely, Lindsey Stirling is one of my favourite artists. I actually emailed her publisher to invite her to Steemit back when we were inviting celebs. I offered them a crowdfunded billboard co-brand while billboards were still able to be funded on a single post, no reply back unfortunately.

I think however if we could onboard an entire church on Steemit to host their sermons live via an embedded streaming video and have their congregation powerup and vote on the post as fundraising for outreach projects that could be interesting. Even for Christian political parties to stage a campaign from. Targeting groups is more efficient than targeting individuals.

That sounds like an awesome idea, it's so easy to get discouraged here.

Thank you for your positive reply :-)

Thank you for sharing, this is another beautiful piece for sure..

The man who wrote this song was a jew. This cannot accurately be described as as christian song.

It doesn't matter who that wrote but what he wrote

My dear frieend @sneak

I do not know if English is your first language, I had not described the song at all. Thanks for the information and I hope it has lifted your Spirits this morning.

Blessings.

The first tag on this post is "christianity" and there's a big jesus/cross thing at the bottom.

I collect covers of this song (Rufus, John Cale, Jeff Buckley, et al) and I've seen it performed live twice by Mr. Cohen himself. It makes me a bit sad to see it co-opted to promote such a destructive religion, and especially one that it is not affiliated with.

This is a very disturbing comment.

Did you seriously say that? You seem to be swinging wide today, playing the role of tag police, religion police and spam police. Is this your new position in Steemit?

Christianity claims to be the logical culmination of Judaism. It offers peace and love in return for persecution and hate.

Cohen's song reveals massive confusion regarding David, Samson and the teaching of Moses. But there is a "realness" in his song that most of us can relate to. There is even a sense of confusion that it carries that resonates with us all, even while praising YHWH.

FWIW, the song has been "christianized" by artists as well, so presenting it as a Christian song is not disingenuous. Not affiliated with? The Torah is as much a part of Christianity as the New Covenant is. Do you know who the single greatest demographic of Israel supporters in the US is? Cohen himself commented on Jesus:

I’m very fond of Jesus Christ. He may be the most beautiful guy who walked the face of this earth. Any guy who says “Blessed are the poor. Blessed are the meek” has got to be a figure of unparallelled generosity and insight and madness…A man who declared himself to stand among the thieves, the prostitutes and the homeless. His position cannot be comprehended. It is an inhuman generosity. A generosity that would overthrow the world if it was embraced because nothing would weather that compassion. I’m not trying to alter the Jewish view of Jesus Christ. But to me, in spite of what I know about the history of legal Christianity, the figure of the man has touched me.

This little girl and her classmates are dangerous?

to promote such a destructive religion

Really? Christianity a destructive religion(!)?
That statement is the definition for RUDE... Insulting Christian members like that was not expected. Hope you take that back.

The destruction wrought upon the people of Earth by monotheism throughout the centuries is well-documented elsewhere and is objective fact, and if you re-read my comment you will note that it says nothing whatsoever about individual practitioners of any religion, so I hope that you will reconsider being insulted.

Ok I reconsider, if you make me the favour to watch this video ...

Are you Christian @sneak?

That's a rude question.

rude? Why is that?

edit I just saw your edited comment above, so that explains it all! (Wow!)

I could only see this part...

Oh I see, my friends had ask me to post it here.

If it is a problem with Steemit,Inc then we certainly need to know that.

Thank you.

I am sure @dan and @ned will not have a problem with your post. I assume it was just a bad moment from their employe and he will be thinking more clear and openminded in the future. Keep posting without fear!

I don't have a problem with his post either, other than the fact that it is mistagged. This is a song written by a jew with lyrics involving David and the God of Abraham, tagged "christianity". If I'd have had a problem with it, I would have flagged it, and I didn't.

To be clear, I rather love the song and this is a lovely version of it; I am glad @angels posted it.

Here ya go @sneak God Bless

Thank you @angles

Beautiful song :)

You are welcome Majes, but you have gotten me in trouble :-)

Yeah, my bad :)
