I did not mean I can not pray for her. I can not admire her actions as a Christian.
I do not believe Christians should dress like muslims, just to be clear.
Every one struggles with sin...
She probably faces a lot of pressure to dress that way. And she doesn't do it a lot. She wears perfectly modest clothes too.

Yeah compared to what other famous musicians wear (or don't wear) on stage Mariah Carey's dressing is rather modest and approbriate to culture and occasion. It's not like she's riding on a wrecking ball naked or so.

She's talented enough to show off her music instead of her body.

I agree!
I cannot watch most pop music videos anymore because they're so NASTY. It's soft porn, is what it is.

Although I admit that the standards of what is approbriate and normal for a female stage musician is rather low these days.
 
Christians sin all the way, they steal, murder, cheat and lie like the sinners they are. I can't believe that you reject a person simply based on how many clothes she wears - a something that is totally subject to cultural standards, climate and kind of activity a person is involved in.
I put her along side modonna, mylie cyus , and janet jackson. all the same.

yes i agree everyone struggles with sin, I have not seen that many christian women sitting in a chair with bra and
bikini panties on, legs open for all to see taking public pictures. nor have I seen many christian women in playboy mag.
I do not follow those women I mentioned. I simply googled her name and saw these pic yesterday when I read this thread.

Oh well I keep hearing Christian men (and women) raising judgement about others rather than staying silent and bowing their head in shame about their own sins.

Go to some beach and you'll see lots of women in bikinis. I bet some of them are Christian. You may dislike it, but that's not making any of them "not christian".

wearing a bikini to swim is totally different to what I said in post 27.

I used to LUST based on some of those images. trust me its not a simple some skin. its a lot of skin. not as bad as others but trust me her first album that came out in 1990, had gospel music in it and she was modestly dressed. if the mods allow I can find a few of her songs to post, say the one with old dirty bastard and listen to what she sings. she clearly needs prayer.
 
Claudya I live near a beach. that doesn't work against me. I have seen some things that are pushing the limits. what does romans 14 say? if I cause a man or woman to lust , falter even though im free to do it then its a sin.
 
Mariah carey is NOTHING like miley cyrus and Madonna and I have listened to Madonna longer then Mariah carey. carey does push some limits from time to time but nothing like the others. latinos are more open in that area.
 
I know that Mariah was a gospel singer. I don't know if she was a Christian, not that I have reason to doubt but I can only go by gossip mags and the news.i used to have big big crush on her. loved her first album.
I have all of mariah's albums and all of them have a christian based song/s.
 
Here are song lyrics by Mariah Carey:

"I Wish You Well"

This goes out to you and you and you
You know who you are

Hmm hmm hmm
When glory days turn to stormy nights
You must have been so petrified
Didn't you, didn't you feel so cold
You against the world in a losing fight
Captive of your demons inside

So you sought an enemy
(I'm not your enemy. He lives in you, you know it's true)
Like times before to mock ignorantly
(But the Lord said love, love your enemy so just...)
Take heed to the Word it's time
Check Proverbs 19:29
Don't cry

I wish you well
I wish you well
I wish you well

I truly wanted solidarity
Still wearing my blinders back then
(So much I didn't see)
I weep for what I dreamed we all could be
I'll keep you in prayer till the end

Still bruised, still walk on eggshells
Same frightened child, hide to protect myself
(Can't believe I still need to protect myself from you)
But you can't manipulate me like before
Examine first John chapter 4 verse 4

And
I wish you well
I wish you well
I wish you well

Be strong in the Lord and power of His might

If my shows of gratitude are miniscule
Inside your mind, sorry
(I'm so sorry, please forgive me)
There's only so much I can do I love you and did all that I could

Maybe when you're cursing me
You don't feel so incomplete
But we've all made mistakes
Felt the guilt and self-hate

I know you've been there for me plenty
Maybe still got love for me
But let him without sin cast the first stone brethren
But who remains standing then
Not you not I see Phillipians 4:9
(Put it into practice and the God of Peace will be with you)

So
I wish you well
I wish you well
I wish you well

(He who the Son sets free is free indeed)
No weapon formed against me shall prosper
Surely God is my salvation
I will trust and not be afraid
The Lord, the Lord is my salvation
I will trust in Him
Yes, I know that I know that I know that I know

But I have had God's help to this very day
And so I stand here and testify
To small and great alike
So the more you curse me
The more you're blessing me
The Word said it
Love your enemies

Do good to those who curse you
Pray for those who mistreat you
Psalms 129:2
They have greatly oppressed me from my youth
But they have not gained victory over me
(In Jesus' name)

I wish you well

He that keeps his mind state on the Lord
He will keep them in perfect peace
 
LOL. Me either, except women over thirty years of age to hide their wrinkles. Wait, many of those over thirty use makeup to hide their imperfections. :)
E-X-C-U-S-E M-E...I have earned my gray hair and my wrinkles.Who wants to be perfect?Not me.There is no such thing in a human as perfect.As hard as some people try.
 
I dont want to jump to conclusions and im too lazy to google but, you will be surprised the amount of artists who do not write there won lyrics. Im not saying she is one as im too lazy to find out, but just saying. Just like Elton J for example. He never wrote any lyrics to his songs. Just saying. It usually takes alot of different skills and artists to create music. Some people do not even enjoy what they are commanded to sing under contracts.
the lyric or the album will have whom wrote in credits.one this note. just because a singer sings Christian music, doesn't meant they believe it or are saved. its all about money.
 
remember that Katie perry tried to start as a Christian singer and didn't make and then sings what she sings.

Have you ended your career doing that which you planned or wanted to do? I sure didn't, and did what I could be successful at to make ends meet. Prayerfully many of these are born of God, and He will work in them throughout their lives to come into God's will for them.
 
I’ll just report my findings whether true or false. She recently sent twitters asking prayer for her husband when he was ill. http://hollowverse.com/mariah-carey/

Rom 10:14 How then shall they call on him in whom they have not believed?
You or I may not see the fruit of her Christian life, or testify to it, but God knows if Jesus’ Spirit is within her planted by the Holy Spirit. I will leave the judgment to my Savior and pray for the perfect will of God to come to her life through the working of the Holy Ghost, and just as God is not done with us yet, I hope to see her one day along side me in front of our blessed Savior.

Year 2006
American pop queen Mariah Carey recently has announced that her two biggest loves are God and her pastor.
Whatever God wants to happen is what's going to happen. I feel like I've had endless second, third, fourth, fifth and sixth chances. It's by the grace of God I'm still here. Yes, I'm frustrated a lot of the time, I go through bad days. But, I'm ecstatic where I am."
http://www.christiantoday.com/article/mariah.carey.testifies.new.career.success.down.to.god/7171.htm

Mariah Carey is a devout Episcopalian who credits God for her success.
I feel the difference when I don’t have my private moments to pray.
She also credits God to helping her through rough times in her life, saying:
My whole life has been some form of struggle that I’ve had to go through. And I think the main thing is if you’re in a good place, you put your trust in God and focus on your spirituality, everything will turn out the way it’s supposed to.

Mariah writes her own songs. She has from the beginning of her career.
