We have to understand this, not all people who sing gospel songs are Christians or know God.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>One reaction towards gospel artistes who seemingly dress ungodly is disappointment. Many Christians expect gospel artistes to be exemplary in every aspect of their lives, including their dress sense. They believe that gospel artistes should dress in a way that reflects the values of the Christian faith, which includes modesty and simplicity.<\/p>\n<p>This conflict in views has most often discouraged many from enjoying gospel music especially, that of some Ghanaian gospel musicians.<\/p>\n<p>However, Moses OK thinks people who are easily discouraged to enjoy gospel songs because of the acts of its singers are being harsh. He explained, \u201cWe have people making such statements but it\u2019s very wrong. You shouldn\u2019t have to conclude or judge the whole industry or ministry by one or two or three people doing some of these things.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYou need to understand, as I said there are people who do not have a relationship with the Holy Spirit because when you truly have the spirit of God in you, the spirit of God will prompt you. He will let you know that what you are doing is not glorified.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><!-- AI CONTENT END 2 -->\n\t<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Moses OK \u00a0 Veteran Ghanaian gospel musician, Moses OK, has declared that not all musicians who compose or sing gospel songs know God or have a relationship with the Holy Spirit.
