Christafari: Mark Mohr talks about their new album and Bob Marley's conversion

Sunday 3rd January 2010

Mike Rimmer met up with Mark Mohr of CHRISTAFARI and quizzed him about a wide variety of subjects



Continued from page 3

Mike: Very Keith Green, actually. Not really a new idea.

Mark: That's where I got it from! I encourage you guys, find that book. It's called No Compromise and it's about his life. It was written part through his own writings, but mostly through his widow's writings, Melody Green's. But that's what he did, he was on Sparrow Records; we were on Word and Gotee, and we did that whole system, and he said, "You know what? Forget this. The next album I do I'm going to make available for whatever you can afford." And the Lord blessed him. I want to do the same.

Mike: "Whosoever": tell me about this song.

Mark: I think the title really just defines it. It's a theme that we find reoccurring throughout the New Testament. As much as people want to talk about election and selection and this and that, there is a constant message of "whosoever believes"; if you knock, he will answer; if you seek, you shall find. I genuinely believe that, for those listeners out there right now, if you want to experience life - not just life but abundant life, not just abundant life but eternal life - taste and see that the Lord is good, taste and see that the Lord is great. Whosoever. It's not his will that any of you should perish, that any of you should pay for your sins, because he sent his son, Jesus Christ, to die for you. Will you receive him? CR

Love, love Christafari. Just introduced to them this Labor Day weekend my older sister.
Beautifully done. Keep walking with God on the straight and narrow and keep winning souls for His Kingdom.

Very good article/interview. I love reggae music, especially Bob Marley, and it's refreshing to hear a real Christian voice commenting on these issues. God bless!
