I believe and have written these same thoughts, especially the end of the quote above.PJ wrote:Let's break out the old hells bells videos again lol, Why do we pigeon hole music into this secualr-chrsitan thing, if we are going to be consistent please add televison, movies, or how about restaurants, grocery stores, books, magazines, could you imagine not watching television because it was not Christian, Im sorry and please here my heart, if ll we had was TBN, I don't even want to go there,
and remeber, we need to buy Christian Cars, Clothes, underear and toothpaste, lol, bottom line use wisdom, God can use anything to minister to someone and yes he can even use "secular music".
If you have personal convictions just to listen to Christian, man bless you and walk in those convictions, just be careful to try and make those convictions for others.
As usual, I will go a step further and say that the music must match the messenger and the spirit of the message. I do believe that there are some styles that should not be used to deliver the gospel. I would not use death metal to minister life anymore than I would use a stripper to minister morals in a hootchie bar.
