Could you be more specific, Dave? What exactly is a "Jesus freak"?
 
Enthusiastic about sharing the Gospel of Christ? I don't see why that would be a bad thing.

Only people who don't know the truth of Holy Spirit that is in Christ Jesus consider those who do know it, to be Jesus freaks, or fanatics. That is, they see it from a negative perspective, while the Christian is quite fine with being whole heartedly seeking to follow Jesus.


What will people think
When they hear that I'm a Jesus freak
What will people do when they find that it's true
I don't really care if they label me a Jesus freak
There ain't no disguising the truth


By the Way, "Jesus Freak" is one of my MOST FAVORITE Chirstian based SONGS of all time.

I still listen to the CD on a regular basis! That is along with a variety of other types of christians music. As a matter of fact, I find it difficult to listen to most secular music put out these days, that is, music about nothing but heart ache, gansta life, and promiscuous sex. That type of music just feeds the mind garbage thoughts, and you know what they say.... Garbage in Garbage out. So Christian based music is pretty ,much it for me. And I've been accused of being a Jesus Freak just by the type of music I listen too. Go figure. The secular world is so closed and ignorant to the truth in the Word of God, and the praises and thanksgiving to God. It's sad, really.


-----------------------

This song says so much more than some people
even take the time to pay attention too !!!

-------------------

Separated, I cut myself clean
From a past that comes back in my darkest of dreams
Been apprehended by a spiritual force
And a grace that replaced all the me I've divorced

I saw a man with tat on his big fat belly
It wiggled around like marmalade jelly
It took me a while to catch what it said
Cause I had to match the rhythm of his belly with my head
'Jesus Saves' is what it raved in a typical tattoo green
He stood on a box in the middle of the city
And claimed he had a dream

What will people think
When they hear that I'm a Jesus freak
What will people do when they find that it's true
I don't really care if they label me a Jesus freak
There ain't no disguising the truth

Kamikaze, my death is gain
I've been marked by my Maker
A peculiar display
The high and lofty, they see me as weak
Cause I won't live and die for the power they seek

There was a man from the desert with naps in his head
The sand that he walked was also his bed
The words that he spoke made the people assume
There wasn't too much left in the upper room
With skins on his back and hair on his face
They thought he was strange by the locusts he ate
The Pharisees tripped when they heard him speak
Until the king took the head of this Jesus freak

What will people think
When they hear that I'm a Jesus freak
What will people do when they find that it's true
I don't really care if they label me a Jesus freak
There ain't no disguising the truth

People say I'm strange, does it make me a stranger
That my best friend was born in a manger
People say I'm strange, does it make me a stranger
That my best friend was born in a manger
What will people think
When they hear that I'm a Jesus freak
What will people do when they find that it's true
I don't really care if they label me a Jesus freak
There ain't no disguising the truth

What will people think [What will people think]
What will people do [What will people do]
I don't really care [What else can I say]
There ain't no disguising the truth [Jesus is the way] :yes

Naw... it loses much of it's flair and originality. It sounds like Evanescence sans Amy's sweet but haunting voice. It's not working for me, Brian. I like the original release better. :yes

:twocents

Jesus freak? Sure, be radical in your Faith.

Mark 8:38 Whosoever therefore shall be ashamed of me and of my words in this adulterous and sinful generation; of him also shall the Son of man be ashamed, when he cometh in the glory of his Father with the holy angels.

Rom 1:16 For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth; to the Jew first, and also to the Greek.
 
Not a fan of the remix. Prefer the original.

Does God want us to be Jesus freaks?

Very likely seeing as the only way to the Father is through the Son.
