WHY LEAVING A SORORITY WAS THE BEST DECISION I'VE MADE

Ahhh... Sororities and Fraternities.
They often embody the pinnacle of our youth. When I started to get closer to God however, I started to grow further and further away from the things of this world. Not having a taste for the things I used to anymore, not desiring the relationships I used to fool around with anymore.
================================
Therefore, if anyone is in Christ,
the new creation has come:
The old has gone, the new is here!
2 Corinthians 5:17
Strengthen yourselves so that you will live your lives here on earth doing what God wants, not the evil things that people want to do. 3 In the past you wasted too much time doing what those who don’t know God like to do. You were living immoral lives, doing the evil things you wanted to do. You were always getting drunk, having wild drinking parties, and doing shameful things in your worship of idols. 1 Peter 4: 2-3
So I say, walk by the Spirit, and you will not gratify the desires of the flesh. Galatians 5:16
“No one can serve two masters, for either he will hate the one and love the other, or he will be devoted to the one and despise the other. You cannot serve God and money.
Matthew 6:24
“Be careful not to spend your time having parties and getting drunk or worrying about this life. If you do that, you won’t be able to think straight, and the end might come when you are not ready.
Luke 21:34
For everything in the world--the lust of the flesh,
the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life--
comes not from the Father but from the world.
1 John 2:16
For I know the plans I have for you," declares the LORD, "plans to prosper you and not to harm you,
plans to give you hope and a future.
Jeremiah 29:11
I have been crucified with Christ and I no longer live, but Christ lives in me. And the life that I now live in my body, I live by faith, indeed, by the faithfulness of God’s Son, who loved me and gave himself for me.
Galatians 2:20
What about you? What is something God pressed REWIND on in your life? I'd love to hear from you!

There are a lot of commenters who are spreading an alternative message in the comment section. Before God made these revelations to me, I would have been saying the same things. But now that I know, and now that you've seen this video - we are held responsible to respond accordingly. Don't be swayed by those who may still be in the midst of darkness. This video was not easy for me to share, but I did it to spread truth and awareness about the revelations God has brought to my attention. Thank you all for watching!
LoveKeilahJ Beautiful testimony! Very informative video.

Are these upstanding Men who have uplifted our race, considered devil worshipers as well?
KeilahJ I need assistance with a friend who is looking to join but now that I know that fraternities and sororities are evil, I don’t necessarily know how to approach him with this.
@brookeduckworth I would pray first before speaking to the friend first about it and wait for God to give you an answer. In the meantime I would just continue to pray for the friend that God’s will be done in their lives and for protection. If God doesn’t give you an answer right way, be ok with that because He’s still working! Also not everyone will see what you see right way nor will they believe what you believe right away. God gives us all free will so we should never be forceful with others. Your friend will be fine! There’s nothing God doesn’t already know, and there’s nothing that God’s Grace can’t do!
Robbie Robin Absolutely. Whether knowing or unknowingly. They were also Boule’. What you may think is helpful to the community is actually detrimental.
Yes I considered joining a sorority while in college and God quickly told me no. He gave me the feeling of much unease in regards to that decision and a verses that were against it
I almost pledged too but I found the energy and rituals within the sorority were so secretive, sinister and negative. There's a reason for it. Look into the history of these organizations (started by Jesuits and/or Freemason Occultists).
Same
I thought I was the only one who had that not to join a sorority feeling
You're literally giving 1,000s of dollars to praise and worship an idol. But won't put more than 10 dollars in the offering.... 🤯 devil is a genius smh #exkappa
This was excellent and God has used you to share it so eloquently!!!
I dropped out of my sorority too back in 2016 but only shared it publicly last year. I started questioning my submission to the process and realized if I submitted to God the same way I submitted to my organization I would be an on fire christian for him!
Once I acknowledged that truth God led me on a road where He revealed the rest of why joining was never of him and over time he revealed the truth about pledging, like serving 2 masters, participating in idolatry, and the bible verses these organizations borrow to give glory unto THEMSELVES.
I thank God every day that he chose to reveal these things to me and save me unto himself.
God bless you for sharing your testimony!
Amen sister thanks so much for sharing this. It's so beautiful and so happy for you
I too denounced my letters from AKA back in 2010 & I must say it was a hard but rewarding decision. The only organization that God approves of is the church which doesn’t require any pledges or “secret” rituals to join but only an open heart and yielded, obedient vessel. AKA stole my identity from Christ but when I denounced my letters I gained my true identity in HIM. #bestdecisionever #Jesussavedmylife
I am so proud of you Keilah! The truth will set you free. Keep letting your light shine and spread the truth. A lot of young people are desperate for friends and attention. Deep inside they just want to belong to something bigger than themselves and fit in. But you are so right to say that God gives us our identity- not Greek life/man. God bless! :)
That's RIGHT! Amen :)
In the 50+ years since I graduated from college, I’ve grown to appreciate, more and more, the fact that I did not pledge a sorority! Admittedly, it really wasn’t my choice at all - in my sophomore year I was right there at the Rush, planning what to wear to my interview, looking forward to being on that Line with my Line Sisters, and showing up to show out every Friday afternoon when the Divine 9 formed their circles and sang, strolled and performed as expected by their organizations! I was ready to buy into all this, including probably reducing the 4.0 I had accrued over my freshman year, and possibly losing my scholarship. . . For starters the interview I had before all the chapter members was harder and more intimidating than I had imagined - especially since some of the members had gone to my high school a year or two ahead of me, and their questions were harder than those from others! Long story short, I didn’t make the Line; and when I burned the rejection letter in my dorm room, I could have set the room on fire! Sure, it hurt to see the pledges gather in my dorm and appear together wearing the same outfit and revealing the same look of fear and forced unity on their faces. It took many years for me to get over my lingering feeling of rejection, despite the fact that I had kept my scholarship, while some who pledged had lost theirs; and I graduated with honors, and even had three Greek letters next to my name that I never pledged for, or lost my identity to receive. I was elected to Phi Beta Kappa!
As an adult, I was tempted to accept an invitation to pledge a graduate chapter of the same sorority that didn’t accept me in college - granted, these were sincere women whom I met when I lived in a city that wasn’t my hometown! I certainly know now that God had better plans for me that kept me from pledging, and I’m grateful! Kudos to the author of this informative post and to all former Greeks who walked away from the bondage of their organizations‼️
👏🏾👏🏾🙌🏽🙌🏽
Wow Margaret! Thank you so much for sharing this. And praise God! He spared you, protected you, and trained you for opposition. You prospered through it! Amen
Omg praise God ! I am not even in an organization but I have a few friends who were and have denounced their letter! You really touched me today ! Praise God almighty ! He is going to do marvelous works through you!
To God be the Glory!!!!! So glad to hear that about your friends as well!
Oh, my sister in Christ how you have blessed me wit your testimony!! When I 6 years old I told my mother I wanted to be a lawyer. Then when I was in high school one of my teachers took me to an HBCU homecoming and saw some Nupes step. I thought to myself,”that’s going to be me one day.” In my 20s I had reached both goals. I pledged the spring semester of my freshman year. (If you have good grades and a certain amount of hours you can do this) However, after being beaten once during the pledging practice I didn’t see the point of the vicious beatimg buy people I didn’t even know. So through my ignorance and naivité I went to a Dean of Students and told what happened. Later I found out she was greek. So what happened I was never touched again but “crossd the burning sands.” (Which is rather geographically inaccurate but I digress) My sophomore year was strange to say the least. I never will forget this one Nupe telling me that I would have a hard time. Was he ever so right. I won’t go over the details here(I’m writing my memoirs soon) long story short I was always interested in studying aboad so I got involved in ISEP. The only school that was comparable to our grading system was a school in Canada. I had a a blast there and thankfully my I was able to enroll there. My foray into greek life was over. After undergrad and then law school. Being a lawyer became identity I grew up in the Church and gave my life to Christ when I was 7. After I became a lawyer and started practicing I started smelling myself so through a serious illness He had to get my attention and let me know that He is in control of my life and I needed a personal relationship with Him. I thank Him for it. I write this because anyone who may reading this God has to be 1st in your life and having a personal relationship with Him is key to the best life you can have! God bless!!
This is the second video I have seen on sorority sisters denouncing. I honestly have to say that I learned of this about a year ago through a great friend. He always spoke of this on his Facebook page. I have a daughter in her sophomore year in college who wanted to pledge. After knowing what I know now, I knew I had to instill this in my daughter. She was not pleased with our conversation, but needless to say, SHE DIDNT PLEDGE!! I have her information to read up on this. She had to read or see it for herself to know. I told her that she could not possibly love God, yet want to pledge. She told me that she was not a Christian so she didn’t see how this tied into her wanting to pledge. I implied to my daughter that I love her very much and I would love to see her face in the next life, but of pledging was in her agenda, I saw no other way for my baby to have eternal life. The dues were ridiculous to pledge. $2,000 just to pledge and that money can be used for her education, I think not. Don’t know whether me discussing this with her or the money was the issue, but I can thank my Father cause she chose not to pledge!!
OMG this video was perfectly timed! I was just thinking yesterday about how glad I was that I didn't pledge! I signed up, paid my fees and everything for rush week and God told me not to do it... I wasn't even saved at the time. To answer your topic: I feel like God has pressed rewind and rewrite on my decision to move out of state and away from my family and friends. I moved for a job opportunity and nothing is going the way I envisioned it to. I feel like I've been dropped into the wilderness! I can't wait to see what God has at the end of this...
Yep!!! Lol had a very similar experience Surayya, but I wasn't as close to God as I needed to be to respect His opinion. Phew! Wow, I know this is an immense season that God has several of His people in a season of wilderness, I pray that He leads you and guides and reveals to you what He is up to. Keep me updated!!
Oh, I love my wilderness experience now that I think about it. It is time to fellowship and draw closer to your heavenly Father. I didn't have a job, my friends and family went ghost on me, no kids, no one but the ONE and only God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob provided. I sanged, I praise my Saviour God, I talked to Him and He comforted me through His words. Listen, trust Him with all your heart, soul, and mind.
*All praise Sis. Greeks are a conflict of interest with your relationship with The Most High ☝and our call being set-apart. Congratulations!!! That's huge you did that. Everyone don't have the courage because of friends & benefits you lose.*
Thank you bro! It's nothing compared to what God has. Was this hard yes? But knowing God has SO much better for me makes it easier.
I enjoy hearing different perspectives on this topic. I have to disagree though, only because one persons narrative isn’t everyone’s narrative. I’m a RUclipsr, that create videos on the positives of Greek life and the right way to pursue an organization. I respect your opinion, and I believe you did the right thing for YOU! But you can’t push your message on everyone. If the message you received from god was for everyone, our organizations wouldn’t be filled with educators, pastors, government officials, or caring individuals who serve our communities daily. To be quite honest my life changed for the better when I joined my organization. I wouldn’t be the person I am today! Yes, we have to pledge, read oaths, etc. but there was never a time I had to say or read something that said I agree to put this org above god or anything close to it. Government officials, police officers, firefighters do the same exact thing when they get sworn in. The only difference with us when we pledge, we’re agreeing to impact our community, safeguard our organizations representation in the best conduct, and abide by our organizations principles. Yes, there’s parties, drinking, etc. but that’s prominent on most college campuses. And completely optional/personal preference if you indulge in those activities. For my life, god is first, then family, career, and then my fraternity. It’s really about you as an individual, you plan your own priorities. Once you have control of your own priorities, you won’t let anything get in between you and your relationship with god. I’ve been living my life like this ever since I joined. I listen to all the messages he sends me, I’m still waiting for this message to tell me to denounce or i made the wrong decision. He knows I put him first, through my actions, character, and prayer. So why pull me away from something if I already put him first.. just my opinion on this topic! I appreciate your transparency in this video! I hope all is going well with your journey.
Corey Jones I agree, my uncle is a minister and he is apart of the Kappa Alpha Psi Fraternity
Corey Jones Love it!
@ Corey Jones this is the best reply I’ve seen. I totally agree. God comes first Greek organizations are not the end all be all only God is! You have to know what comes first and not get caught up on the fanfare of being apart of certain organizations.
Right on Corey also God with a capital G boo
Corey Jones this by far the best answer I have seen!
Amen, just came across of your video, your testimony is similar to mine, I too denounced my membership in AKA in 2017, and God has honored me letting go of this wicked organization.
I left my sorority this past year as well and I feel so much more freedom and I feel like God is pointing me where He wants me to go. My spirit did not thrive at all in my sorority. This video is so relatable Keilah. Thanks for sharing!
Its one of the best decisions I made too. I am soooooooo free.
Amen Sis! I renouced Delta too!!!
I wanted to pledge AKA years ago, but God would NOT release me to do it!!!! I make no apologies for it!!! Thanks for this video!!!
I ignored God also. Big mistake. In the end the master brought me full circle back to him. I say to anyone that is thinking of doing this research, research, research. Hold the Greek life up according to Gods word. Trust me as a young person you will be more successful and happier in college living a godly life style. Greek life is nothing but a time waster and a false god/idol in your life. Great video! Peace.
Im so glad someone finally was bold enought to speak on this! People tip toe around the subject, excusing the blatant idolatry that fraternities and soroities are founded on. I think it was good that you spoke on this. Hopefully others will see Jesus' light as well.
Amen!
right!
That's amazing! Your testimony sounds a lot like mine. I denounced my sorority a few years ago, and I believe it was one of the best decisions I've ever made. My sorority sisters talked about me and thought/think I'm crazy, but I'm more interested in pleasing God than man.
Yessss!!!! Come on girl!
We are called to pick up our cross and walk. Find comfort and support in knowing, God will never leave you nor forsake you 😊. Be Blessed
Sy B. 👏👏❤🖒😍
You better say it!!
Me too!
Way to go, Keilah! Trust me, I'm all too familiar with that internal battle of holding your tongue as not to offend. No more, sis! Praying God's continued favor, peace, and protection over your life as you continue to share His Word, love, and grace through your personal journey.
I know some women & men who are still followers of Christ and have pledged. To each is own.
Charis Sims can't serve two God's... I've been saying for years that Soros and frats are demonic.... but all y'all will see.... always trying to over lap or overlook or add on to what God is doing
kyrahsmommy true you can't serve two God's, but comparing a sorority to God in the first place is just STUPID. I think the girl that made this post and people that support her may have been looking to Greek life to fill a serious void in their lives and ended up using Greek status as self esteem and self worth...
You are so right and this is coming from one who has been in it.
Charis Sims like my mom
Jovonna Vann it's not about comparing it. Greek life literally has OTHER gods in their crests etc and you pledge to worship them, it's slipped in there.
Girl thank you for this truthful video! So true. So true. So true. So many people will never understand this. After pledging myself , I realized the nonsense in this all. It is a form of idolatry, false Gods and false idols! To God be the Glory!
Thank God for you and creating this video! I have always wanted to be a K, but I prayed and asked God to show me the right way to go. God revealed to me that it is a form of idol worship. I came across the ritual online and I was shocked. At no point am I bowing to the founders, pledging my life to anything or anyone BUT God, and I refuse to allow an organization to dictate an elitist perspective that you aren’t worthy or haven’t “arrived” unless you have letters. I honestly believe they prefer people to join undergrad because its easier for people to get caught up in the popularity contest and all the activities and glamour of being in an org. And be brainwashed. Blessings!
Facts! Glad you were able to do your own research and see that it is not of God. And you're so right. The enemy gets people while they are young/impressionable and probably don't know the Word at all. That is my story. I recently renounced.
This was truly inspirational to me and i want to thank you for those scripture. I was scrolling through so probates videos(nothing new!) and I honestly came here looking for dirt on why you dropped out only to receive a message from God. It is not about what you said but more about the scriptures you delivered that made me realize god was speaking me. Making me fully understand the path I needed to take. God has made it extremely difficult for me to join a sorority. There is no black sororities on my campus, I would have to pledge off campus with no car, I even considered starting one on my campus before i was shut down. I too planned out a life of endless opportunities and having a big community with people i can look up too but for the wrong reasons, and with a man who's family only wanted a Greek because he's legacy. So here i am.. at my senior year in college once wanting to pledge to acknowledging I've been ignoring all these beautiful things God has given me because i wanted more. He has better plans for me "plans to prosper me and not harm me, plans to give me a hope and a future".
So thank you once again for preaching the word of God.
Thank You for being bold in your walk and transparent. I have battled with the desire to want to join a sorority for years. When I developed my relationship with God He told me “no” and I was okay. But over time I wanted to know why and He literally lead me to this video. So thank you sister 🙏🏾 🧡
To be honest I get where some of the comments are coming from, that you think it depends on the person, but honestly I want you to think about your sorority for a second. You are basically paying dues that are way too high, going in the cut, and making false relationships with girls based on a common entity in order to fulfill what exactly? To do community service? Sisterhood? For “networking”? I’m sorry to say but I don’t see the point in doing it for either of those things. I have close friends to me that aren’t Greek that treat me way better than my former sisters, I volunteer at my church to help make a real difference in society than the few events Greeks do in a year, as well as networking maybe cool, but you could’ve meet persons that can help in your career or life outside of the Greek life. I’m sorry there is literally no way to say how it helped you but rather you can ask why do we need to pay and “cross” just to accomplish these things that we can do without letters. Taking oaths and rituals just for the things I’ve mentioned? It doesn’t sound right. Better yet, sing the song you came out to for your probate word by word slowly and let that sink in so that you can obviously see that it is a form of paganism. Some Greeks take these letters to an EXTREME but fail to worship Christ in that manner. Let alone the Greek pettiness is a horrible turnoff. All in all, leaving for a person who is woke, who I comfortable in the person she is as well as comfortable with their self identity, and confident does not need to hide behind letters to be great, and that is the truth.
Joanne yesss
Bless you queen. I too realized this scam. Their promotion has reached the masses as far back as middle school!
I just want to say that even though it was has been almost a year since I read this post and it is STILL very relevant to my life. This is going to be a long post but I pray that it hits home for someone. Okay...growing up I always ALWAYS knew that I would go to an HBCU and pledge. Not many people in my family belong to D9 organizations but I wanted so badly to leave behind a legacy for my children to come and to build a beautiful sisterhood. To serve and lead my community. Well went I get to my first college... the Greek orgs BARELY exist lol! Literally.. most of the lines were non existent for years. I transfer schools and although it’s a PWI..the orgs are pretty heavy. By this time MANY of my friends have pledged at their schools. I’m doing my research, talking to the “right” people and making my presence known but also trying to just graduate at this point lol! So guess what? I graduate and I am crushed y’all! Lol! I went through college and never got to join that beautiful sisterhood. But yet...I want it soooooo bad. So grad chapter here I come! But one day I decide to really research and I mean REALLY research down to the nitty gritty and I asked the HARD questions because I was about to make a lifetime commitment. Listen, what I discovered shook my spirit. The chants, the rituals, the system...I even wished I hadn’t read what I read. To those of you that will probably criticize me for making that statement, pleas know that I am not naive and my research is extensive! So while many of my friends in sororities are followers of Christ, prominent members in the community and serve...when you mature in God and decide His will or nothing at all... it will be very clear which direction to take.
Tanisha P Come on sis. Testify man... Love you
🤞🏾
Yesss sis!
That last sentence! My eyes were opened as well. If people are TRULY seeking God and they do their research (because the info is out there), it will be abundantly clear. For those who are lukewarm or have a hardened heart, they won't be able to see the truth!
Thank you for sharing your testimony 🙌🏾☝🏾 I too got the same revelation last year and it has been the most spiritually freeing experience I have ever had. God is gracious. He has shown me so much more of myself that was hidden and could only be revealed once the blinders of Greek life were lifted off of me. To God be the glory 🙌🏾🙌🏾☝🏾
Hey there beloved Keilah! It’s Ricarda :)
I am so happy about the little things you did and glad to hear about your Journey with God ALLWaYS !
God calls me to places beyond my imagination and I am glad, it’s not easy, bc the devil really got me in a bad position again, but I am recovering and God bettered my relationship to my family immensely trough all of this!
I am still adjusting! His plans are BIG ❤️
I knew it I knew it, that's why I didn't pledge when I naively starting asking the lady who was over the sorority about greek sororities being a part of a polytheistic culture and when I started asking about rituals being similar to pledging she got heated.
I know now that those were silly questions to ask I killed any opp I had right there. But I knew in my heart it wasn't right. She told me "when in rome do as the romans do". That ain't me though. Praise God for your testimony!
Sororities aren't part of a "polytheistic culture"...
Danie The Poet Same here!!!! People thought I was crazy on my campus when I denounced it.
Melissa Boone
My pastor’s wife used to be a delta, and she said that the org is rooted in paganism. She renounced as well.
That's how you know something is wrong when people get defensive when you question their values.
Thank you for sharing. It takes courage to share your convictions and what God has brought you out. I love how eloquent your rebuttal in the comments were. Everyone won't agree but should be respectful. 💘
I'm happy I found this video, I always wanted to go into Greek life. But the past two years I've grown not being interested in it at all by seeing what they do and also the process to join one. No organization should be harsh to get into and also they should not make you isolate yourselves and not be able to communicate with your family and friends. Yes people say being in one have benefits but it's still a lot of waste of money for not guaranteed connections and opportunities. Everyone should just read the Bible, pray to God, do good deeds, and wait for their miracles to come. If you work hard and pray all that you want will eventually happen in Jesus name Amen.
The Lord is an on time God!! He word tries us. So be still, be true to your maker.
My mother used to be an AKA while she was in college. Fast forward and I am 25 years old now. I started to notice the destruction within the world. One day, I asked my mom to pray with me and she actually verbally attacked me and I found that it was very strange that she acted like that over me asking to pray together. Even my brother seemed confused at this. I slowly started to put the pieces together as to why she is the way she is... This video has actually made me cry because I see through all the BS that these organizations portray and it is in fact serving Satan. They all have ties to Masons which actually control our false reality that we live in (Satan). On top of her having an abusive childhood, she has a false sense of self. She calls herself the "Queen" of her household and sometimes calls her name in 3rd person.
It is very egotistical and narcissistic behavior. She has been verbally abusive towards me for no good reason at all sometimes and she rarely apologizes. She did this last night and she called me a bitch just because I said I wasn't hungry when she was making some food (she was drunk) and she apologized. Then she brought up my past and said you (I) "Used to be a better person." Just to make herself feel better about her verbally abusive ways. I need to leave, I know and I plan to.
TheLolzatyourfacemoo hey, I’m praying for you and your mom❤️ know that God Loves you unconditionally and would never leave or forsake you. Continue to let Jesus shine through your heart and your life
While I respect that this is your testimony, it's rather unfortunate that you try to paint every organization as ungodly solely due to your own experience. Maybe God called you out of Greek life because YOU made it an idol. When I crossed I didn't start praying to my org or bowing down putting it before everything else. I'm still the same person I was before I crossed. If you joined and switched up then that's you, don't blame the sorority for your lapse in judgement. Before I joined I prayed that if this was for me that the doors would open up for the opportunity, and if not then don't let it happen. The doors swung wide open and I don't regret my decision.
What about the occult rituals, making oaths, worshipping Minerva, crossing the burning sands, the origins of Freemasonry? Question, research, and ask....
Smh
Krista exactly!!
Krista I agree
You took the words right out of my mouth, Krista!
Thank you so much for this video. I was thinking a lot about wanting to pledge. Like that's all I wanted. The image, the reputation to build a successful life. God has constantly placed roadblocks and pretty much said "no, that's not for you". I trust that he has so much better in store. Thank you so much for sharing 😊
I see comments saying "God told me to join ABC Frat/Sorority" that was the devil talking to you, not The Most High. Satan tempted Christ, so don't forget the devil can talk to you and grant you worldly things too. It takes wisdom to know the difference.
Ebony Williams 2nd Corinthians 11:14 - And no wonder, Satan masquerades himself as an angel of light. God will not deal with a made up mind. Everything starts with the heart, and 100% of the time it was already in their hearts to pledge.
Ebony Williams
These organizations are secular institutions. You are free to practice any religion you choose. Why are you pretending that they try to influence your Religious affiliation? I've known Sigmas that are Muslim. Omegas that were pastors. Etc. This whole idea of fraternities and sororities being in league with Diablo is hilarious and ridiculous.
Amen, Amen and Amen!!
Thank God for you being this fireball for God and letting the Holy Spirit transform your life. Your transparency is so amazing! To God be the glory.
I love this video ❤ It spoke to me because I'm a freshman in college and was so excited and wanted to join a sorority... but knew in the back of my mind that it wasn't right for me, and it was NOT going to bring me closer to God...if anything push me away from him...and I've received my conformation from him not to join and it feels great!
This is good. So many people won't understand that can not serve 2 masters, you will love the one and hate the other. You can not pledge and turn around and pray in tongues. Yeah we are all human but God will have the last say so.
Hey guys simple. Sororities (Fraternities) are rooted in a Masonic histories #FACT. Doesn't matter community service, various reasons for joining, "I can still preach to my LS's/LB's"...", it has a ROOT OF SATANIC CULTISM. No reason cutting a tree's branches all OFF and not paying attention to the roots. This is the reason God has removed me completely from the ties of this society. Because for me to GO DEEPER in HIM! I HAD to remove every.single.root. tied to Satan. Whether I saw it that way or not. Some of us may not be satisfied with our relationships with God or not where the Father sees us being now because of demonic ties to Satan. Lord doesn't tolerate it.
Oh yeah forgot to say THANK YOU ALL SO SO SO SO MUCH FOR SHARING SOME OF YOUR STORIES 💃🏾💃🏾💃🏾 real moment??? I woulda been saying the sameeee thing when my veil was still over my eyes! Now???? Can I get real?ZERO RRGRETS. God can't force us to be seen in His image... WE must respond to His desires for us to see ourselves that way. I've found this to be a FOND tactic of Satan - the Evil One... Deceiving his lies in the form of TRUTH. Do y'all see that. I speak OPEN EYES over every viewer who is sensitive to your Spirit Father in Jesus' Name!!
I appreciate your view, but you're not a Mason so its kinda interesting for you to assuming the roots are satanic.. when you've not been in any rights and rituals of the organization. Assumption is the root of ignorance
This comment truly shows your lack of knowledge on it all. I am glad God is taking this time to help you grow. If you chose your sorority over God then you joined for the wrong reasons and wasn't grounded in His word from the beginning. Also, you obviously lack knowledge of anything Masonic especially if you believe it's satanic. Blessings to you.
KeilahJ ruclips.net/video/g6FDmaZMHA8/видео.html listen to her perspective too. Makes sense
Thank you for your obedience and boldness. Praise be to the Most High in our Savior. This is not a matter of opinion or to each its own, but a matter of obeying God’s Word or not. Leaning on your understanding, emotions can lead you astray. His Word is His Word, no need to try and justify sin, if you choose to sin then call it for what it is, take accountability otherwise you’re following another doctrine being your own/not the Creator’s...but to try and make allowances - is admission of guilt, or strong delusion! Father, help our unbelief and lead us in the Way everlasting. Not my will, but THY will be done.
AMEN, this is just a reminder that the Lord has an amazing plan for me. I stared school last year because I went looking for success and money, and I wanted to prove to myself and others that I was smart, I had all these ideas as to what I wanted to be, and what direction I should go into career wise. I was doing so well, my marks were really good too....but now that I'm almost finished my program, the Lord took me aside and said "Izzy, let go of your shrine, I have a better future for you, follow me". So, I have chosen to let go of my pride and my shrine for myself, and I'm choosing to follow Jesus, no looking back.
Yesss Izzy!!! #TestimonyWednesday! Lol, love it
:) Thank you
Maybe when you decided to join you joined for all the wrong reasons . This is why you should have dropped. Sororities and fraternities are not about the partying and drinking and all of things of that sort . They are very much so entailed with a mission for community service and empowerment. You see once you join an organization, it does not mean that you have to change who you are , it should mean that you are able to be more of who you are . Absolutely no one or nothing can make you do or be anything that you don't want to be or do .
I'm not in any sorority or anything of that sort , but i do have friends who are .
Exactly
Right!
That's how I feel and I am in a sorority. I also believe it depends on the chapter you're trying to enter as well. The women who brought me in also were my mentors growing up. They are Christian women who are passionate about others. I also think it's a huge difference between undergrad and grad chapters. From my experience undergrad was concerned about certain things like partying. Didn't really see them involved with the community and a lot of them never transition into grad chapters. Speaking from my experience.
telayas exactly! As a member I’ve never been peer pressured or lost my way it’s not for everyone especially those who aren’t in it for the right thing ! To BE OF SERVICE TO OUR COMMUNITY
Wow, first of all can I just say I love this channel! You know I had to make a decision on if I should please others and be that person who's not me or be the new born again Christian that I am now. It took me a while to tell people that I'm not ashamed to be a Christian. I guess I was scared, but just until recently I told everybody that this is the me now & that I won't be ashamed of this. I feel so relieved and blessed! ☺️
Jessica! Sister :) I'm so glad you are loving this channel! Yes... it takes AWHILE to fully embrace full confidence as a Follower of Christ, I think every day God expects us to become ever more faith-filled and bolder! But I am SOOO happy and excited for you!!! We have to let GO of the former things, and embrace our new creation!! Yay! Love you sis!
I want to know what is it about sororities that's not in alignment with Gods plan. I want to pledge but not to be seen, but more for networking purposes and just to build a bond with women and people my age. I don't drink or smoke and has never been interested in it and I am 20. I always see people say that sororities are bad, but never give any factual basis on the subject.
Anyone feel free the comment.
You can do BOTH of those things excellently without joining a sorority Teana :) Actually most people that join for those reasons don't even follow through to make the connections they were hoping to or they don't leave the process with strong sisterhood or friendships. I would encourage you to allow God to bring you to women your age, and to not attach yourself to something that God doesn't approve of (an idol) and also to search out opportunities to network. If you're not doing it now, you most likely won't do it later :) Just what I've learned about myself. The environment or title may change, but that won't change your attitudes or habits :) love yaaaa! Hope this helped
Only Teana Follow our heart. Every experience is different. Everyone’s journey is different. I’m a Christian and love my Sorority. You can find the same type of videos with Christians talking about why you shouldn’t do just about any and everything.. you just have to do the best for you.
Wow another amazing inside....bringing perspective on an unholy yoke! I remember even in my most stubborn moments in my life feeling so grateful that God kept his hand on me and change my heart with all his heart... That Amazing Grace! I just thank him so much for it!
Amen!!
This is interesting. I appreciate what God is revealing to YOU. I respect your journey. However, the only reason I decided to pursue my fraternity is because of a revelation I received in my own personal prayer time. I had intentions to continue on with life without it...I was out of school and doing great in my professional and spiritual life. Greek life doesn't feed my flesh. It sounds like you had unhealthy motives going into it...and it perfectly makes sense that God would tell you to let it go. YOU made it an idol. YOU got tripped up in the negative aspects. YOU got caught up. This is not everyone's story. You gotta do what you need to do. Make sure you stress that this is YOUR story and those like you.
Thank you for this video that sheds light and truth. FYI: It's the word of God how is it her opinion? Who will master and Lord over your heart? Pay attention to the'pledge' that is made to various organizations. My own husband denounced Masonry because God spoke to his heart.
Thank you and I love the intro 🙏🏽
I have gained so many positive things from being in my sorority that I know God made room for. It's your opinion and I respect that, but it's all about the person and what you allow to happen.
CortneyElizabethSam I don't think it was her opinion but her instruction given by God...tht doesn't necessarily mean tht God denounces Greek life but I think some people can can pledge and continue in his will and some people let their sorority or fraternity become their God and tht is where the problem comes but God knows!! I am not in Greek life but I have been praying about it and doing my research so I will just have to listen to what the Lord says
CortneyElizabethSam love your comment!!! I said tht to basically agree with you btw
CortneyElizabethSam I gained so much positive things also.. I loved it but I had to drop out because some of the things my sister's believed in and did I didn't. and I became conflict when were all supposed to be somewhere but I didn't want to go because it was dealing with things that I didn't believe in also on days when I wanted to go to church there was sorority meetings and stuff like that so I had to drop it I had to make a decision was it the sorority or was it GOD. I thought I could juggle both also but I couldn't because I started to find myself slowly changing to conform to what my sisters wanted me to do and I also felt that if I couldn't stay up to what they stand for and do all the events that they were doing and stuff like that then what was the point of me being in the sorority they respected my decision some understood and some didn't
they brainwash you though ..its the friendship and love from sisters you feel
The devil tempted Christ, so just because you received "positive things" doesn't mean it's of God.
My sister, I praise the Father for your boldness to speak the truth in and out of season. May Yah bless and keep you and grant His favor upon you. May Yah shine his face upon you and give you (Shalom) peace. Be encouraged.
I'm about to start the process of denouncing Sigma Lambda Gamma (Part of the Zeta's/Sigma's) I feel no STRONG conviction but certainly enough to know I need to denounce because of the oath, the rituals and the idolatry. I crossed 7 years ago and educated 2 lines so I am planning to write them a letter explaining this so they can ask questions and then I will formally self terminate. I didn't realize how extremely difficult it would be to throw out all the paraphernalia so I have been doing it gradually. Eventually getting to my decked out line jacket. I want God to make it easy for me.
I'm a year late on seeing this video but I just want to say that for everyone saying "my uncle, grandma, pastor, minister" are all Greek and they are awesome Christians who do great things. I am sure they do. I am sure they are great people. And I am sure they are Christian.
However, what determines if something is Christian or not is if the Holy Spirit is behind it. Paul says work out your own salvation. You are not about to go to Heaven and when you give an account for any part of your life (not just Greek stuff) but your walk in general and say "oh but my uncle was a minister and he did and said so and so" That's not good enough.
Secondly, for those who said maybe its because SHE made it an idol. I will tell you this, I was an AKA and I NEVER made it an idol. I was never gung ho, I never "put it first" , I never walked around screaming it, etc etc. But my intentions behind it is not what makes it of God or not. You may feel like "oh well I'm one and Im good" but don't confuse God's mercy for His approval. He loves us and will give us chance upon chance to get it. So thats just His mercy. But my point is it wasn't Christian just because I am Christian and was in it. Eve's intentions behind eating that forbidden fruit wasn't evil but it was still against God. Also remember that idle words still have power so whether or not you mean to "see the pink and green light" and have it regin supreme in your life..and pledge yourself to it (without true knowledge of its spiritual roots), whether you meant those words or not as idolatry, that spirit if idolatry is still behind it. and you're still exposing yourself to it. Jesus says we will have to give an account of all our words. So getting there and saying "oh but i didn't mean that "like that for real for real" and oh but my uncle is a minster and said it too" won't suffice. If the devil made all this obvious then you clearly wouldn't do it. He is a deceiver and thats why you need The Holy Spirit to bring you the real TRUTH. Lastly, she's not pushing anything. Let's not make it something its not. Beauty gurus get on youtube all the time and talk about their beauty regimen and no one is like "stop pushing your skin care routine on me" so, please stop trying to twist it.
I want y'all to know that what determines God's Spirit is God's Spirit and nothing else. What determines His Word is His Word and not anyone else's , not even mine. So I would encourage you guys to just go to Him yourself. If you feel like she is lying you have every right to go to God and ask Him yourself. You are his child. Then you go by His answer. Not the voice of anyone else's. I pray you all have a relationship with Him where you are able to discern his voice versus the voice of the enemy. If not then cultivate your own relationship with the Holy Spirit so He can help you. Sometimes we black people can be too much into the spirit or religion and oh well at my church we do this and my pastor said this etc instead of the spirit of a relationship with Him when we can say "He told me." Sorry I wrote a blog on your video girl :( lol
Praise God for seeing and thank you for being brave enough to speak the truth. May the Spirit of Truth continue to lead you into all truth. TGBTG!
you are so bold! love it!
Praise GOD, beautiful sister in CHRIST!
Thank you Sis :) And yes, Glory to God. Gotta love Him :)
Selfishness and pride are the 2 main readons we ignore our heavenly Father. Im praying that the Lord of hosts will deliver my soul from such satanic strongholds.
I am so proud of you!!! Keep obeying God!
Tryasmile AMEN 💛
As a member of NPHC who truly loves Christ I will say that you denouncing your org is more so because YOU made it and idol in your life...not the structure of the organization itself and what it stands for. I am not saying God didnt tell you to let it go, but I am MORE than certain that it was becuase of YOUR doings within the org. I serve God's people with my org, I feel God's love with EVERY interaction I have with my sisters, and we Priase, fast, and worship God together as a unit! It was only by the grace of God that I was placed in that org in first place. That saying is true..."you make the letters you do not let the letters make you" and it seems like you allowed those letters to make you. Regardless, I pray that your decision continues to bring you closer and closer to Thee.
KeAnn Mays-LeNoir Excellent.

Man a hit dog will hollar! I remember attempting to pledge during undergrad. One night had a crazy dream that the inside of the Frat house was open graves with tombstones. That didn't sit well with me. Not only that I didn't like how the org was being referred to as if it's a actual person or being. I also saw how they belittled people and required people to do asinine things. The "crossing" night is a form of ritual and there are others. No disrespect but again if you are a Christian really seek God.
Crossing night?? Huh? I crossed at the church and there was nothing demonic about it. It was a beautiful service.
Respectfully,
A Proud Omega Man
Say it again for the people in the back. Why are these organizations personified? #scalesoff
@@abidingeast Hopefully it is God speaking to her. You can't have two masters. Honestly Christianity is full of Pagan rituals and holidays. Many are because of Roman's who based the holidays and rituals on Greek beliefs. This is why by belief in Christianity is probably ungodly to others. Before anyone starts, there are no letters on my chest. I just like history.
Hi Love! Praise God for this video! This comes from someone who was in a sorority and denounced 5 years later after being a member. I thank you for standing up and being a LIGHT! The enemy wants us to be DISTRACTED...these organizations get people by saying that they were founded on "Christian Principles". Now don't get me wrong, I've met amazing people through the organization...but this is not of God....Period. I pray that we will look to the one true light for all of our wisdom..instead of these earthly things that are distracting us. Be Blessed Love!
2 things to consider:
Does the Greek life bring you more intimate and closer to Jesus or push you farther from Jesus?
Greek life talks about the good things they do in the community but every good work done outside of Christ or not through Christ will burn in the end. That means all the things done through the Greek life will burn and are not pleasing to the Father.
Darryl Danzinger absolutely right
I so admire you! as your sister in Christ! I love people that are serious and real about God! so many people are men pleasers and won't take a stand for righteousness. Thank you for sharing your testimony❤
Amen, praise God. Thank you Denise. Someone's gotta do it, many of us!
Just because someone is a minister, preacher, police officer or any other profession doesn't make being in any organization of exclusivity biblical. That is the complete opposite of Christ and anything opposing Christ is anti Christ. Also Jesus says people will cry in that day Lord lord didn't we do all these things in your name? And He will say get away from me you workers of iniquity! I never knew you!
I admire your process and determination in your quest. Everyone has their own path in life and journey. No one has the right to question or change it. God bless you!
I prayed and prayed and prayed for months before I pledged Phi Beta Sigma Fraternity, Inc. and the Lord told me that it was my time! Make sure that you are ALWAYS prayed up so that you don't step into something that the Lord does not have for you. I believe that I will be a beacon of God's light in my fraternity, and I am looking forward to all the great things God will do through me for my organization!
Wow thank you my sister for being so candid. I also had to allow Gkd to prune me from the organization. i pledged. Our purpose comes from Christ not from man.
Great video! I never thought Id hear someone say those things aloud. HE is able to do all things for us. No need to make a pledge to the temporary things of this world.
Tears! Thank you sister
God gives everyone a purpose and destiny. I am a member of AKA. God led me to join my sorority so that I can make an impact in my community. The distractions that you are referring can be anything in life. I personally think that maybe when you joined your sorority, you did not known who you were in Christ. As far as my chapter many of our sisterly relation activities we often go to church together and worship God. The target programs that we have are not only impacting the community that we live in but the world as a whole. I don't think you should say that pledging is not of God. I think a better thing to say would be that God did not lead you to greekdom. There is nothing wrong with strolling or partying as long as you remember to stick to your values. Be the example to your peers. I love music and dance. But I don't drink or grind on ppl at parties. Since I've been Greek I've led so many Greek sisters and brothers to God.
Diamond Johnson pray that you receive deeper revelation sis
Thank you for your intro!!! I never joined a sorority because my mother discouraged it and sometimes a part of me wished that I did anyway. But, I am cut from a different cloth - I'm not called to conform to just any ol' group! Yeah, it may work from some people but I will excel in life without it! Peace and Blessings to you! :)
Amen sister in Christ. Love the intro. God Bless you.
i honestly had no interest in BGLO at all but ended up praying to see which org God would want me to become apart of and surprisingly it was the Ques. so here i am... apart of the frat and still attempting to figure out what exactly is my role within it but, i know there's purpose. brave and bold video; keep inspiring.
God did not tell you to pledge yourself to a false god. Please stop telling that lie. If you chose to join it was your choice but please don't say that it was God so that some naïve young person can read this and think that God approves of these unclean spirits and these unclean organizations. You cannot serve him and whatever false god is the patron saint of your organization
+Ladybug Jenkins i hear you, and won't debate. i know what it was for me so *shrugs* just pray for all the BGLOs.
I will, including you. God does not change his word for individuals. If you heard a higher power telling you to "pledge" yourself to a false god it was not the most high God but maybe you never meant him to begin with. Be blessed.
+Ladybug Jenkins that's right, pray for ya boy and remember this: he w/o sin cast the first stone. standing ovation for you. smh and you wonder why the church is emptying? love you sister.
@kimar Cain I agree with you about her posting the video and being bold and brace but your transparency and openness through your comment says the same about you. I pray you find your role and stay strong in your faith.
I did too I wanted that sorority... be I dropped out as well. I had a awesome time with my sisters but... I found out who I was and whose I was GODs Property
I can relate to wanting to do what God didn't want me to do, but he intervene before I was able to sign the application
Glad about it Denisha!
omg thank you so much for sharing this because I did the same thing God first everything falls last take care of his business and yours is nothing to him he will do it I'm 15 and im proud to start this young god bless you
Amen. May Almighty, Beautiful Father God continue to Bless you in HIS Most Beautiful, Holy Righteous and ONLY SAVING SON, KING JESUS CHRIST WORTHY AND HONORABLE NAME!!!! Praise The Lord!!!!
I dropped out of my sorority just last summer after two years of being in. My main reason was that I realized how little in the sorority I would have to be involved in in order to keep my grades up. At that point, it wasn't worth the money or time. I really felt for every one of them because they didn't have Christ or claimed to be Christian but I didn't see any Christ in them (I was surprised when they told me!). My sorority USED to be based on Christianity but only mentions God or Jesus in rituals, which at that point I wouldn't expect anyone to want to listen to it. During recruitment there are 4 subjects (4 B's) to avoid talking about; boys, booze, bank, or bible. I would've preferred joining when it was first forming since the first ladies were really passionate. Coming out of it, I felt a huge weight lift off my shoulders! Now to just sell the shirts!I'm doing fine nowadays. I actually got involved in something called Royal Family International. They basically teach who you are in Christ and how to live that out. My social life is good. This semester was a lot easier as a result!Thanks Keilah! You're an inspiration!
Sell the shirts?? Huh?
I made a decision to actively let God take over my thoughts and think positive, lovely, good,virtuous thoughts and deal with the negative one through what he has taught me.
Wow, love this Allison. Just that simple but powerful action will TRANSFORM the way you act, respond, live and how God lives through you! Praise God for this!
Yes and it changes your perspective! ! Im so greatful for this change😊😀
I’m pledging a Christian sorority that is incorporated... and being a proverbs 31 woman is what it is built on and God is at the center of our whole pledging process...Stay focused on God He truly has a plan for everyone whether you see it now or see it later on down the line❤️
Thank you for sharing this testimony my sister! May it continue to impact many!
You are niw right path sista.. It took TMH taking everything away from me that ws causing me to Neglect HIM...Yes if one is chosen then HE will make sure you find HIM in your affliction.
the lords people will perish due to lack of knowledge. Thank you for sharing your story! I pray that it reaches many young women who are considering taking that forbidden oath. I also pray that this message reaches those who are still in bondage & either don't know it & those who refuse to believe it! You are preaching the TRUTH. You can NOT serve two masters.
My input to this for both sides is this, man, looks on the outside, but, God looks at the heart. His ways are not our ways and we should not lean on our own understanding. As far as having idols or false gods, that can only happen if you are putting anyone or thing before Him.
As far as being called out of something (for whatever reason God sees fit) awesome! He's all knowing and all wise and knows how, when, where and why to lead in all things. But be mindful, while one is called from a thing, someone else is called to it ref. the Profit Hosea and his harlot/adulterous wife in Hosea chapter's one, two and three.
There are other references, but this one I feel relates to both sides of this debate (for lack of a better word) because in it we see that God's covenant with His chosen people will not become null and void, non of His shall be plucked from His hand, for God has plucked us from the fire Zechariah 3:2 .
This was good dialogue (except for those that got too heated and became rude and judgmental). But, this is much too deep of a subject for a quick video and quick comments. It's missing the complete history/origin, what it has evolved to be in todays time, what it stands for vs, individual or collective behavior (good and bad) etc.
But kudos still, as this post should have pricked at each commenter to dig deeper than what the have previously lived, read, been told or just believed without really digging deep, praying and hearing God on the matter.
This was really encouraging to me
Love your channel and what you stand for, just subscribed!! God bless you sis! 💕
Amen! Welcome!!! :)
This is a powerful video! May God continue to bless you!
love the intro 💖💖💖
Meee too
I've never been interested in joining a sorority (though the networking aspects are tempting), but I feel like next year is going to be an interesting one for me. I graduate university in December, & I'm not sure what I'm going to do afterwards other than finding a job.
When you mentioned not giving your entire heart/self over to God, that really hit me. I feel like a lot of my dreams have been put on hold (traveling, for instance), & that I've been stuck in my home state for so long. My aspirations to go into the legal field are particularly precious. I think I'm afraid to ask God if I'm really supposed to go onto law school because I'm terrified that he's going to take that desire from me like he has with so many others & I'll be left looking foolish and floundering. And there's so many other fears & insecurities I have about going into that field (on top of not trusting the Lord to take it off the table completely) as well. It probably sounds ridiculous, but that's where I'm at right now.
Hey Kimmie Love! As long as you continue worshipping God, seeking Him and praying - you won't miss out on anything you are supposed to. Because God will guide you and lead you along His paths of righteousness for His Namesake! Just like Psalm 23:3 says!!! :) Love you girl!!! SEEK HIM, don't seek your own pleasures. Those are so mediocre compared to what God has for you
Awee! Your intro is so beautiful!! Wonderful video sister :)
Girl I love you so much you are powerful and I would luv to talk to you! God just told me the very same things and I have a company and I have to change so many things to make it be about Gods will! Keep going your light is so BRIGHT!
Couture-Luv-INC wow! That's so awesome to hear! Would love to chat too! Keep following the light. It will never lead you astray.
Girl I'm on your 1st video it's amazing ❤️I going to share and look at all❤️and I also do 📷 so we can team up for free god loves us I will add u to the page ❤️
:) That would be dope! Okay!!!
I'm 15 and I wanted to be a AKA at CAU but now since I seen this I don't want to do it anymore
Tiasia T Look. Do your research. Do not let religious extremists let you miss out on your blessing. I listened to crap like this from my father (who was an elder) misconstruing scriptures and the meaning of the organizations. A lot of these people are scorned members who decided to make excuses for why their sorority was not for them. I'm now years after graduation realizing (after reading the Word FOR MYSELF from Genesis to Revelations) that in fact I should have pursued membership. Don't be me. Please think critically especially about these people. They talk about organizations are responsible for keeping you away from God. However if you look at them, this person for example, she stated she renounced the organization; is no longer affiliated. Yet the spirit of vanity is dripping from her own self so much you could mop the floor with it. Beware of false prophets.
chaney107 Thankk Youuu
chaney107 Amen to that! Many sororities and frats are not what this girl is talk about. Many of them follow Christ and do things for the church and help there community. It sounds to me she didn't make the line and came up with another excuse our was put out of the sorority. My family is apart of sororities and frats and we strongly believe in the Father, Son, and , Holy Spirit. Follow your dreams sweet heart. Don't let people like her steal them away from you! 😊
Don't do it as a Christian you should not be partaking in pagan rituals period and a lot of these greek letter organizations won't admit that part. Some of theses orgs make you isolate yourself from those who are not in the org and You're expected to put the org 1st in order to gain membership! Not to mention you better keep the org's secrets! Extremist nothing, it's the truth.
lilwilly07 what organization did you join?
I left too because of God. I too was in the same organization.I knew too God wasn't in it. He told me, who am I going to serve.
Thank You for this video! God bless I really need this. The Spirit is willingly but the flesh is weak !
Amen sis. If God is anything to a person, he must be Everything. I am working on committing 100%. Thanks for sharing
Wow last week I left DECA. God showed me denonic spiritual connections & how a child of God shouldn't be involved. So the next day I resigned. This was another conformation. Go should be my only identity not a group.
Thanks for telling the truth.
Yessss!!! I heard Good say NO, but I did what I wanted to do any way then was surprised by how much stuff I went through when all I had to do was listen.
You heard well sister in Christ. My friend was/is a Kappa and has serious issue with the the organization. He mentioned the pledge to Greek gods secret handshakes and much more secrets. We are not of occultism or things hidden or of darkness but rather we are children of God who is our light and salvation and is Not hidden nor does it have to be
