    My prayers are with him. I just read about what happened and every day that I go to work I hear the song "Cinderella" (it plays on the radio they have on the loudspeaker), now I won't be able to hear it the same =/ But I HAVE met this guy, he's an amazing singer who puts on spectacular concerts and an overall awesome guy to his family. I hope to be the same for my family someday in the future. God bless Stephen Curtis Chapman.

    My daughter and I heard this song on the radio when she was in the 5th or 6th grade. Neither of us had ever heard it. We both listened without saying a word. Then we both looked at each other and said, "Daddy/daughter wedding dance." We never spoke of it again until about a month before her wedding when she and I practiced and practiced as much as we could. She was 21. I was 58. It was a month ago. I watch the video every chance I get, always with a handkerchief or a box of tissues handy.

    I think it's great how many of you are standing up for Christianity and your beliefs. I'm not going to tell you to stop but to be hesitant about what you are posting because you don't know how many people read these comments. Keep in mind also that when you preach you want to preach correctly and you want to lead by example. If you telling people to 'burn in hell' do you think that their impressions on Christians and Christianity will be improved? That's all I wanted to say, Thank you.

    Mr. Chapman, you are so genuine and funny in this interview about the nature of the song...kids..I am sorry for your loss; I know that you will be able to write songs that will minister to many many others who have lost a loved one. At this time, I will pray that you and your family can be still and let God heal... so hard to celebrate emily's engagement, high school graduation and now this 10 days after she turned 5...sigh... :_-(

    I know I'll end up sounding defensive and over-zealous and whatnot if I say I'm offended but... I am.
    I don't believe in God, but most of my friends do, whether they are Muslim, Hindu, Christian, Buddhist, or even "Pagan". But I love my family, and my family loves me. It's not lonely at all.
    Perhaps God is real, but I'm not a believer right now. But if there really is a God, I think he'd be proud of me because I live my life to the fullest.
    So yes, I am a little offended at what you said.

  • @Toqrainbow
    @Toqrainbow 15 лет назад

    I do take issue with it, because it's pretty clear you're only hear to insult the family and those genuinely interested in what SCC has to say about the song. Of COURSE you have the right to watch and comment how you please, but just trolling around the internet trying to bother Christians is just stupid. It's like the Amazon reviews for every political book: The liberals with give a conservative book one star without having read it because they dislike the authors views and vice versa.

  • @sharpiemarker91

    I don't know if you're saying "job" as in work, or "Job" as in the book of the Bible. Either way, what does this have to do with the song? :S Humility has nothing really to do with the song, and neither does money! :P Seriously, what's the point of this comment? It makes me wonder if I've missed your intention.

  • @AimeeFaith1hi1
    @AimeeFaith1hi1 10 лет назад +2

    @Stalin1987s you are so wrong. All though you say "death happens everyday" don't say it like it is a bad thing. Death is only a way of healing. God only brings on death as a way to answer certain prayers and to bring healing, because heaven is our real home. Heaven is better than anything on this earth. Heaven is permanent while the things of this works come and go. Before you say things, PLEASE be logical.

  • @sgshaday
    @sgshaday 16 лет назад

    That's 'cause you don't know Christ. There are tests in our lives. However some things (mostly all of them) happened because of our own decisions. God has a plan for us. Whether we follow it, or not, is on our decision. Things also happen through tragedy, not because of God. But God is the one that actually can take that pain away and heals us completely.

  • @sharpiemarker91
    @sharpiemarker91 15 лет назад

    I realize he is a Christian singer. In fact, I first heard this song on KLove, a Christian radio station. :) However, I personally think that this particular song was NOT meant solely to be a Christian song, but a song to get people to think about how quick their loved ones can and will move on/disappear. Personally, I think all this junk about Iaweh (Jesus Christ, Son of the Father), "burning in hell" especially!!, is just a lot of spam and has nothing to do with the song at all! :(

    -shrugs- I have no doubt that believing in God does have that potential. However, I was still offended that AngelKay7 decided to say not believing in God (Or Allah, or Fu, or Zues or whatever God you may believe in) means I live in very "sad and lonely existence".
    Attitudes like that annoy me because if Atheists go around and say, "I think you live an ignorant and old-fashioned lifestyle", then it's wrong, and evil, and Anti-Jesus. If on the other hand Christians say, "You're sad." it's fine.

    Personally, though I'm a believer, I do not think that this was meant as a Christian song. It's just a father cherishing the passing moments with his daughter... You don't have to be a Christian to love your children, do you?

  • @Toqrainbow
    @Toqrainbow 15 лет назад

    ...another person avoiding the question, I'm sorry. The Steven Curtis Chapmans of the world serve God through music. The Christian authors, through books. We all use what God has given us. But I will say this: The Bible is incredibly well documented and I don't believe Christ's followers had anything to gain but persecution by spreading the news of Christ's works.

    Because Steven Curtis Chapman is considered a Christian singer, and none of his songs are something a Christian -wouldnt- listen to. Just cuz it doesn't mention God doesn't mean it's not Christian.

  • @Toqrainbow
    @Toqrainbow 15 лет назад

    To be honest, were I to explain some of the reasons I have faith in God, I imagine Stalin would brush them aside because they were things he did not experience. Just look at Thomas. Thomas doubted and Stalin clearly has more doubts than Thomas.
    I'm no theologian and I don't express my thoughts that well. Bottom line is if I answered his question we'd just get into a duel of throwing claims for and against God at each other. I don't want to do that. Am I avoiding his question? Probably...

  • @stallingfortime2334
    @stallingfortime2334 9 лет назад

    Firstly, to twakd31... please read and understand the bible before proclaiming falsehoods about scripture (thereby leading others astray). To wit "the only unforgiveable sin is denying Jesus"
    It is written!!! Matthew 12:32...
    "And whoever says a word against the Son of man will be forgiven; but whoever speaks against His Holy Spirit will not be forgiven, either in this age or in the age to come."
    This verse is proof that Jesus IS NOT His Holy Spirit.
    Jesus's prayer in Gethsemane is proof that Jesus IS NOT Our Heavenly Father... "non the less, NOT MY WILL, BUT THY WILL"... prima facta, The Holy Trinity IS a True Trinity of three Gods equal in knowledge, understanding, wisdom, and power and with the unified goal of redeming mankind to the status of being (and communion with God) which we had before the fall of man. They move AS ONE in PERFECT UNITY.
    Did not Peter DENY JESUS THREE TIMES BEFORE MAN?
    HE MOST CERTAINLY DID!!!, and Jesus forgave him.
    I do not condemn you twakd31... As Jesus so correctly said it, "we are condemned by the careless things we speak".
    Your own statements condemned you. I pray for your enlightenment and better understanding of what you read in the bible (so too for all who peruse the pages therein).
    Secondly.... to those who claim SCC's Cinderella is not a christian song - you have your eyes shrouded in a rectal veil. Your hind sight is lacking some strong christian foundation.
    We are commanded to care for the widows and the orphans. His comments in the interview, and his beautiful song for his daughters (most of which are adopted) express his deep love and devotion to them.
    GOD The Father... GOD The Son... GOD His Holy Spirit...
    GOD is Love... To GOD be the Glory!
    Steven, you have the honor of presenting wonderful music for us, and you have my respect.
    To the critics of his music, if you still desire to criticize him... lets hear you write and perform better songs.SURELY YOU HAVE THE RESOURCES OF RUclips!!! So no excuses.
    I know I can't.

    ...But the bottom line is that if Stalin feels very motivated to find about the truth of the Lord, he will. I don't think my words are a weapon I can use to help him. I a bit like Legolas. He had a sword if needed, just as I have my words. But the real weapon was his bow, as my real weapon is prayer.
    I don't want to fight with him or misguide him, as that will alienate him. I truly hope that he will pick up the Bible or a really good book on God the learn about the truth. If I'm simply...

    ...at the very least you will be able to see Maria's death for what it was: a tragic accident. No more tragic or important than any other child's death, merely better publicized, as her father is a public figure. I cannot understand why you can only vilify SCC's son. Again, my prayers go out to you, in hopes that you will find Christ.
