Staying "true to you" isn't anywhere in God's word. Picking up our cross and denying ourselves is.... Not loving the world and the things of the world is... Providing no room for our flesh is...

[@SGOV86]

Amen! Exactly!

[@lizabetx483]

Deceived and deceiving others. The walk does not match the message.

[@daddyslittlegirl.]

Yes

[@austin27lj]

God wants you to be who you are. Being true to who you are is not masking and pretending to be perfect. Walk in who you are right now where you are in the season you are in. Don’t try to be like those around you! It’s religious to say staying “true to you” isn’t in the Bible! Walk in the identity of who you are minus the influence of the cultural traditional society norms etc. who are you outside of the things that conceal your true self! In order to to understand what he is saying you have to go through a transformation with Christ! You have to surrender your will and let go complete so God can reveal who you are at the core!

[@tliw2]

I hear what you're saying, and I don't completely disagree. But when you have pastor after pastor divorcing their wives and remarrying, "Christian" female musicians dressing immodestly by standards of just 20 years ago, coarse and vulgar language not just tolerated but defended, pastors partying with the world...why are we surprised when we hear of hidden sin in pastors when we tourn blind eyes to their worldliness, unbiblically believing we "can't judge." We're not to judge motives, but we are to judge with right judgment: Jesus tells us we'll know a tree by its fruit. Not everyone should be in leadership. I'm not just talking about Deidrick, but the people he surrounds himself with. I love CBN, but they threw Deidrick a softball here in asking about how he "stayed true to himself1'. We find our lives by losing them in Christ. We live by putting our flesh to death. The emphasis can never be on staying true to ourselves. We only really discover who God's made us to be when we fully submit to Him. That's a completely different emphasis, and emphasis really is everything.

[@madelenewilliams3839]

CBN, knows this interview is Leaven, and it should not be glorified no matter if he can sing high notes, singing is not the way to Eternal Life. Talk about living Holy in CHRIST and trusting GOD'S HELP TO BRING ABOUT THE INNER TRANSITION

[@GoldenGraham25]

Not “leaven”🤣🤣🤣🤣 I love churchy folk

[@Marcusmusick]

Amen!!!! Speak TRUTH!!!

[@abroadstateofmind5571]

Pray for the brother and if you’re soo concerned send him an email. Church folks are perfect at condemning but the action behind it doesnt prove you have good intentions to correct issues.

[@michaelsteven8892]

Yes ! Whatever you do for the glory of God ❤, will provide you with strength,hope & vision to steer you the right path ! Praise The Lord ! 🙏♥️🌹

[@heritagegirl]

I had not heard about this man...very gifted! After watching, I bought some of his music on iTunes. Thank you for this interview!!

[@RoyalMasterpiece]

I encourage you to purchase Deitrick Haddon and the VOU. It is 🔥

[@ashleydore6530]

He's a awesome artist he even made a movie I love Deitrick haddon he's a amazing person

[@UndeniableSA]

This guy now loves the world. Period!

[@rosietatumstewart8607]

i Love him ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤ He has a wonderful spirit about himself.

[@sallyafton3646]

Love your story, preach it brother. I had an Uncle Bert Haddon who was an alcoholic and God transformed his life. Can’t wait to see him someday.

[@tommyrobinson5730]

Amen I love detrick Haddon

[@user-sj2ro7we7f]

😊 you are anointed and I love your spirit keep going on my friend

[@Strong.courageous]

Instead of talking about people in the comments, Pray for them. This man's life is on display, let's see how many bones you have in your closet. Honestly ask yourself do you believe you are perfect and Holy enough as a person if God was to Judge you as you read this?

[@savedbygrace4535]

Yea! Im saying though...this is not how we are to present ourselves knowing where we have been brought from and the skeletons He has spared us from being exposed of! Even the Apostle Paul was flawed and he "prayed in tongues more than you all"!😅😂

[@barbarawilliams2852]

Son the Word says “in spirit and in truth.” The question is “whose truth?” Jesus said, I am the Way, the Truth and the Life. It is in HIS truth that we live and seek. Disappointed that the interviewer did not press him on this. We are in a season where we are trying to fit God into our way of living instead of living according to will outlined in His word. 🤦🏾‍♀️

[@MissKimT]

💯💯💯

[@tliw2]

Yes! And sadly, too many of us are still star-struck.

[@dodoeury5771]

If you lack basic knowledge on the word yourself, it will be difficult to notice and question falsehood and blasphemy. That's just what you watched

[@Shawn-363]

He just twisted the scriptures and yall just bat an eye, like nothing was wrong. You didn’t even correct him! His interpretation of that verse is found NOWHERE in the Bible. You are called to deny yourself, pick up your cross and follow Jesus. Nowhere does it say “be true to you” Worshipping in spirit and in truth has to do with GOD, not us. Anything in us that doesn’t align with God’s truth, must be laid at the feet of Christ. We must submit everything in regard to ourselves to Jesus. This means the part of yourselves that you’ve gotten use to, that don’t align with biblical truth. This man is deceiving and being deceived.

[@jareya]

I believe what he was referring to is the need to worship God in honesty, genuineness and sincerity of heart. Of course this also means repentance and alignment with the word of God but it starts from a place of laying yourself bare before the Lord and being truthful with Him. I believe that’s what he was referring to.

[@catrinacharles7212]

I'm so glad God isn't like man. Love you DEITRICK 313.....

[@Marcusmusick]

​@@jareyaYes...but it doesn't stop at confessing our flaws and ways of being that do not align with His word. What is acceptable (reasonable act of) worship is being transformed by renewing our minds. Shall we continue in sin that grace may abound? I have been as defensive as Deitrick is being about how he thinks he is being perceived. Allowing God's truth to transform my mind has changed my perspective and I have not lost who I am.

[@cantrelle7742]

He didn't need to use scripture to back up his perspective, I agree with his misinterpretation, but I also agree that we should live in our truth. We have a sense that when we become believers that we physically change no we change spiritually and mentally but we are still working out salvation and unfortunately that calls for a infinite effort!

[@daniel-gh6bj]

GOOD WORK DEITRICK! "BEING REAL" IS WHAT REVOLUTIONIZES PEOPLE! NOTHING ELSE! I LIKE WHAT SAID AS WELL--"GOD CAN USE YOU IF YOUiREAL". Y-E-A-H!

[@dmpair6899]

Is this the full interview with Deitrick Haddon? It seems like the clip ended abruptly. It's a great interview and I've been a Deitrick Haddon fan for decades. I'd like to see the interview in its entirety, please. Thanks!

[@gwendolynhawkins5704]

Always love his truth

[@bonitabeverly9953]

That’s right, his truth

[@hopefull1857]

God bless him but I feel like I'm hearing him say "I" and speaking of his gift of singing and works more than the Lord Jesus working through him.He speaks about not losing himself,what about losing your salvation?

[@Lizzy_333]

I heard it too and it saddens me 😞 I hear no humility but much pride in his message. Let’s pray for this man to be shown Gods glory and humble himself, come back and be who The Lord wants him to be 🙏🏼

[@ladyofwisdom2]

My favorite gospel artist. My favorite songs by Deitrick Haddon are:Well Done, Sinners Prayer, Billion People, Sinners Saved By Grace and the list goes on. Great interview!! 💓💓

[@mhenderson3407]

Great interview! 🤍

[@RubaJust]

Is the interviewer straight? My gayder is goin crazy!!

[@RachelSemeson]

Right I’m side eyeing cbn right now. The man is wearing a feminine shirt and crossing his legs. I’m not gonna even talk about his mannerisms. 😑

[@jasongoad1084]

Same here!!+

[@cenamartin5161]

He’s just like the world he still have that lust in him. He revers interpretation of the gossip in his music entry😮🤦🏾‍♀️

[@patriciajones1959]

Good Job Pastor, You stayed True to First of all, 1) God, yourself, Family and This whole World of Peoples. I , Myself, Praise God and Hornor You for the most Amazing, God Fearing Outstanding Man of God. Keep up your good and amazing work 🙏🙌🙌🙏♥️♥️♥️♥️💯

[@kennbmondo]

Great interview. Thank you Efram

[@savedbygrace4535]

There are specific scriptures that describe how to handle your sister or brother in Christ in various situations. So let us examine our selves before helping one another! Put your own motives and the spirit behind what you want to say on trial up against scripture, vigorously, before expressing it! This way you will bring glory to our Father and line up with His will... ❤🙏🏾🕊🔥

[@Calatriste54]

Bravo, Deitrick.. I love seeing an authentic facet of GOD's Glory in one of His Children.. Press on!

[@MaryChappel-wq6fs]

Yes Sir OUR Father will HUMBLE US🎉❤ Because Everything we do we MUST PRAISE HIS NAME. YOU SIR ARE TRULY BLESSED 🙌 😊BY GOD...IN JESUS NAME 🙏 🙌 💖 BE ENCOURAGED 😊❤🎉

[@go2yourself]

Good interview, enjoyed this ❤

[@jjj0026]

His new album is 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥. One of the most honest and transparent gospel albums I’ve heard in a long time. I know his song One Night In California is going to drive the religious folk nuts.

[@madelenewilliams3839]

JESUS CHRIST IS THE GOAL FOR US ALL, being true to who we are is why we need to keep looking to JESUS to Transform us into HIS Image NOT the world's truth

[@believer7733]

Hallelujah 🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽! ✝️😇

[@KakarotGoku2]

BLESSINGS TO EVERYONE 🤝🙏😇

[@mimiayoo3921]

Its not about the things that we do for God but the life that we live that reflects the kingdom not the life that looks like the world. Not all who say Lord, Lord will enter the kingdom but those who do the will of God not ours. Let's make a difference by dying to self and to live the life of Christ, let Christ be our role model not worldly people. God bless.

[@EricJChambers]

Fantastic lighting and camera setup.

[@mosestyson2705]

Thankfully GOD'S one on one relationships with us all are EXCLUSIVE. What others think do not change what GOD KNOW. Thanks for your honesty Pastor and yr gift. Be safe... Moses Tyson Jr

[@gwendolynhawkins5704]

Truth

[@AbrahamGanye]

Baba Mr Deitrick, I love you big time no hate at all but the fact is that you have fallen from grace. All those subtle compromises that had now come out full scale can still obtain forgiveness from God. I love you but God loves you more. It's not too late to come back home

[@zadoksstudio8353]

Amen 🙏🏽

[@user-tq9od7pe1b]

He dont look like a real man of God,a lover of the would

[@MichaelHines-sl3tx]

Because he is not.

[@taunyahicks1268]

Nope he isnt

[@DesB81]

Reprobated!!! The walking dead!!!

[@cantrelle7742]

😮

[@davids3487]

Yall lost credibility after this!! Now I don't trust anyone else yall have😂😂 We gotta do better...yes he can sing, but Deitrick does alot more

[@taunyahicks1268]

Yes, just wow! That man is completely Carnal! Cbn is falling away

[@davids3487]

@taunyahicks1268 This is what happens when popularity becomes more important than integrity...artists use these platforms to promote Godlessness rather than Godliness. My question is, what happens when new believers research his music and get more material than they asked for?...CBN should be held accountable and called out for this!!

[@producerartistjizzle4089]

Amen this pastor speaking truth

[@janicemeredith7768]

God bless you 🙏 ❤ Pastor and your family ❤ TO GOD BE THE GLORY AMEN AMEN 🙏 LOVE

[@annaperrycoleman3932]

Thank You

[@nadinebelongstojesuschrist2319]

Father God...Lord have mercy.. he look terrible.. wow the love of money of this world really got to him.

[@mrsbrownpowell5565]

There are things you just dont do as a christian. The word of God forbids tatoos and Deitrick and many others have them all over.

[@miraculousm1]

Transparency

[@lauraatkinson8920]

There’s nothing wrong with the edge God can use that, it’s the real you just polished up

[@yolandajones1794]

I see some of the younger people dress differently. I am 67. I dont always wear suits, dresses, or skirts. But I dress appropriately. The young men who are dressing differently are NOT on the pulpit. Always a robe or suit. Seens like he us following the culture of the youth. He should ask What would Jesus accept? I doubt God is pleaaed with him following the world. 🙏🏿

[@LOOTLESS1]

I'm a retired 67 year old woman (if you know what that is, lol). I heard the music just as I opened the page and started to close it just as quickly.😂 God told me to stop and listen, so I did. I'm so glad that I did! What an amazing, beautiful story it is! I didn't even mind the music. God takes us to places and experiences that we never thought we'd go to. All glory be to Him!

[@carlettaharrington2946]

PASTORS with EARRINGS....

[@kingzkid2725]

and wears faux locs 🤔

[@carlettaharrington2946]

Old school saying, "PROFILING and STYLING"....

[@NakishaRHicks]

My Lord, have mercy! Too many "I's".

[@mrsbrownpowell5565]

God is not a "Anything goes God" There has to be principles. A BORN AGAIN CHRISTIAN should not pattern worldly lifestyles. Live in the world but not of the world. There are practices I need explanation for such as christian men wearing earrings etc.

[@rhawes99]

He can sing but he is not sincere for God like he was when he started. The world got him and it’s about self and flesh! I can’t even listen to him any more. Please research him because he has a carnal church history and puts God in all of his mess.

[@zadoksstudio8353]

No, in Spirit and in Truth means to believe the truth of God not the truth of yourself. Stop being self centered and start being God centered. Having bikini 👙 women in your music videos is not being true, that’s being of the world. This is not the truth of God. This is what is true of yourself.

[@taunyahicks1268]

Cbn is getting Carnal
