Three random fictitious conversations between John the Baptist and Cyrus about Lady Gaga. That might have taken place at various times in history… But did not!
John the Baptist: Good day, Cyrus! How fare thee?
Cyrus: Ah, greetings, John. I am doing well. And you?
John the Baptist: I am zealous as ever! What news from your time?
Cyrus: Oh, there is much to discuss. But have you heard of this Lady Gaga?
John the Baptist: Lady Gaga? I have not heard of her. Is she a woman of ill repute?
Cyrus: Actually, she is a musician who has become quite popular in our time. Her music is unconventional, to say the least.
John the Baptist: I see. And what do you make of her?
Cyrus: Well, to be honest, I find her music rather enjoyable. But I understand that some may be offended by her style and attire.
John the Baptist: Hmm. I must confess, I am skeptical of this Lady Gaga. As a preacher, I must uphold righteous principles and warn against immorality.
Cyrus: I understand your concern, John. But isn’t it also important to show love and compassion towards those who may not share our beliefs?
John the Baptist: Yes, you make a valid point. We must not forget that Jesus Himself ate with sinners and tax collectors.
Cyrus: Exactly! And who knows? Perhaps Lady Gaga will one day come to know the Lord and use her talents for His glory.
John the Baptist: That would truly be a blessing. Thank you for reminding me, Cyrus. Let us remember to approach her with love and understanding, as we would to any other person in need.
Cyrus: Amen, my friend. As King Solomon once said, “Above all else, guard your heart, for everything you do flows from it.” Let us not forget to show love, even to those who might seem unworthy of it.
John the Baptist: Wise words, my friend. And with that, let us go forth and spread the word of God.
Cyrus: Agreed. May the Lord bless us and guide us on our journey.
John the Baptist: Indeed, He shall. And perhaps, someday, we may even see Lady Gaga walking with us.
John the Baptist: Good day Cyrus, how do you do?
Cyrus: Good day to you too, my friend. Although, I have to say, I am a bit confused as to why you wanted to discuss Lady Gaga with me.
John the Baptist: Why not? She is as popular as ever and I fear that maybe she is leading people astray with her provocative behavior and music.
Cyrus: I understand your concerns, but I believe Lady Gaga is an artist who tries to express herself through her music and clothes. She is just trying to be creative.
John the Baptist: I don’t think so. Her outfits are outrageous. I mean have you seen that meat dress?
Cyrus: Yes, I remember that. But it was just a statement, meant to promote vegetarianism.
John the Baptist: (Chuckles) Oh Cyrus, you are too kind-hearted. I don’t think a meat dress is the best way to promote vegetarianism.
Cyrus: (Smiling) Well, John, I believe we can agree to disagree. Besides, let’s not forget the times where performers used to wear crazy outfits like Elvis Presley and Michael Jackson. Maybe it is just a modern version of that.
John the Baptist: I suppose you have a point there. But what about her music? It is not very uplifting, is it?
Cyrus: That’s not entirely true. She has many songs that uplift people, like ‘Born This Way,’ which empowers people to embrace themselves for who they are.
John the Baptist: (Skeptical) Very well, but what about her lyrics? They can be quite explicit and risqué.
Cyrus: Ah, but isn’t that the reality of this world? We cannot pretend that everything is pure and innocent. Sometimes we need a bit of freedom to express ourselves.
John the Baptist: (Shakes head) You are preaching the language of the secular world, Cyrus. Mastery of thoughts and chastity is the key to a happy and righteous life.
Cyrus: Well, not everyone has to follow the same path, John. Variety is the spice of life, you know.
John the Baptist: (Laughs) Yes, Cyrus, it is good to be different. I suppose we agree more than we thought.
Cyrus: (Laughs) I guess so. Besides, I have to say, I enjoyed ‘Bad Romance’ more than I expected.
John the Baptist: (Rolling eyes) Oh Cyrus, you surprise me sometimes. But I am glad we could have this friendly debate.
Cyrus: (Smiling) Yes, indeed. It is always good to exchange thoughts with people of different beliefs.
John the Baptist: (Nodding) Agreed. May we continue to learn from each other.
Cyrus: (Making a gesture of agreement) To that, John.
Let’s choose ‘Twenty Questions’!
John the Baptist: Alright Cyrus, I am thinking of a person. Can you guess who it is in 20 questions or less?
Cyrus: Sure, shoot.
John the Baptist: The person I am thinking of is a female musician.
Cyrus: Is she from the United States?
John the Baptist: Yes, she is.
Cyrus: Okay. Is she currently a judge in a television show
John the Baptist: Yes, she is a judge in a television show.
Cyrus: Hmmm. Has she ever won an Academy Award?
John the Baptist: No, she hasn’t.
Cyrus: Interesting. Does she have a stage name?
John the Baptist: Yes, she does.
Cyrus: Alright then, Is she known for her amazing vocals?
John the Baptist: Yes, she is renowned for her beautiful vocals.
Cyrus: Is she known for her eccentric style when it comes to fashion?
John the Baptist: Yes, she’s definitely known for her unique fashion choices.
Cyrus: Alright John, I think I’ve got it… Is it Lady Gaga?
John the Baptist: That’s correct! It is definitely Lady Gaga. You nailed it, Cyrus.
John the Baptist, known as the forerunner of Jesus Christ, was a prophet who was born to Zacharias and Elisabeth in the Judean wilderness. He was called by God to prepare the way for the coming of the Messiah, Jesus Christ. John’s message was to call people to repentance and to prepare their hearts for the coming of Jesus.
John was known for his austere lifestyle, wearing only camel’s hair clothing and living off the land. He baptized people in the Jordan River and preached about the kingdom of God. John’s message was so powerful that people from all over Jerusalem and the surrounding countryside came to hear him.
John’s humility was evident when he saw Jesus coming towards him and he declared, “He must increase, but I must decrease” (John 3:30). This showed that John understood his role as the forerunner and that his mission was to prepare the way for Jesus.
John’s ministry was cut short when he was imprisoned by Herod Antipas for speaking out against the ruler’s marriage to his brother’s wife. Later, he was executed on the order of Herod after he was seduced by the daughter of Herodias to ask for his head on a platter.
John the Baptist’s message of repentance and preparation is still relevant today. As Christians, we are also called to prepare our hearts for the coming of Christ and to share the message of salvation with others.
Scripture references: “A voice of one calling in the wilderness, ‘Prepare the way for the Lord, make straight paths for him’” (Mark 1:3). “I baptize you with water, but he will baptize you with the Holy Spirit” (Mark 1:8). “The next day John saw Jesus coming toward him and said, ‘Look, the Lamb of God, who takes away the sin of the world!’” (John 1:29).
Cyrus was a mighty ruler mentioned several times in the Old Testament. He was born in 600 BC and became the emperor of Persia in 550 BC. Despite not being a Jew himself, Cyrus played a crucial role in the history of the Jewish people.
God chose Cyrus to restore Jerusalem and rebuild the temple of the Lord. In Isaiah 44:28, it is written, ” who says of Cyrus, ‘He is my shepherd, and he shall fulfill all my purpose’; saying of Jerusalem, ‘She shall be built,’ and of the temple, ‘Your foundation shall be laid.’” God raised Cyrus to bring about His purposes and fulfill His promises to the Jews.
Cyrus allowed the Jewish people to return to their homeland from Babylonian captivity in 538 BC. He provided them with resources and finances for the restoration of the temple. He even sent back the sacred vessels that King Nebuchadnezzar had taken from the temple.
Cyrus’ actions were a fulfillment of God’s promise to restore Jerusalem not long after the prophet Isaiah had prophesied about it. This holy promise was a sign of the Lord’s faithfulness to His people and a testimony to the world of His greatness.
Cyrus’ legacy has inspired generations of believers to trust in God’s ability to use even the most unlikely people to fulfill His purposes and accomplish His plans.
Lady Gaga is a talented musician, known for her unique fashion sense and colorful personality. As Christians, while we may not agree with all of her choices, we should still extend grace and love towards her as we would towards any other person. Instead of judging and criticizing her actions, we can pray for her and hope that she may come to know and follow Jesus Christ. Ultimately, our role is not to condemn others, but to show them the love and compassion of Christ, just as He has shown us.
