Hey everyone.
As you know, the Bible tells us to test all spirits. I'm thinking about getting into Jason Upton at the recommendation of a friend, though I need to test the waters a bit. There's a few things I need either dispelled, exposed, corrected, whatever the case may be.
I guess the first concern is when someone mentioned the idea of angels singing on the song "Fly." I've seen a YouTube video, and it gave me chills listening to it, but I've fallen for stuff before. I'm trying to find a statement by Jason himself on it. Do you know anything about this? Is there reason to believe it's authentic? If I could get his own words that would be neat.
His music is supposedly Spirit-led. Is there any reason to believe it to be so, or any reason to believe otherwise?
Speaking of Spirit-led, this is where I've become a bit edgy after witnessing the rise and fall of the Lakeland "Revival," and it's taught me that every experience isn't necessarily a God one. Is there anything you could tell me about his theology or his beliefs? Is he very strongly rooted in the Bible, or is he into any non-Biblical practices that perhaps I should know about?
In case anyone is offended or thinks I'm heresy hunting, perhaps I should disclose my motivation. A friend I just made told me about the concept about prophetic singing, prophetic worship, and it's funny earlier that very day I decided I really wanted to pursue a deep and intimate relationship with God. I took a step out of my comfort zone, did a thing or two I didn't really feel like, and then this. I know there's a deeper way to know God and to serve Him, and I want it. If you guys know anything that could help me in this study, that would be great. And if I am sincerely wrong in something I'm doing here, I'm open to correction.
If you can, shoot up a short prayer on my behalf so that I know exactly what to do. Thank you in advance.
