What's wrong with the World's Music Part 3

In part 1 we talked about how the world's music is Satanic. One does not have to research far into Rock and Roll music to see that.In part two we talked about how the world's music is Sensual, all that it takes is an honest eye and ear the hear and see that. And I'm not just referring to Rock, or Pop, or Country, but every form of secular music.
Those are not the only problems with secular music. it is also almost always sinful. What few songs that are out there that do not talk about sex, adultery, fornication, talk about drinking, drug use, rebellion, etc.

Most of the songs by Billy Joel are about rebellion.
Most of your country music (with the exception of those that are about sex) talk about drinking, and rebellion.

Brad Paisley;
Alcohol
Whiskey Lullaby

Brooks and Dunn;
Whiskey under the bridge

Miranda Lambert;
Dry town
Gun powder and lead

What kind of message do we send the world as a professing child of God, when we listen to this kind of music but claim the bible to be the infallible word of God. you know the bible that says;

Proverbs 20:1 Wine is a mocker, strong drink is raging: and whosoever is deceived thereby is not wise.

Eph 5:18 And be not drunk with wine, wherein is excess; but be filled with the Spirit;

What kind of message is it? It is a message of confusion!

Not only is this kind of music sinful, but it is Sacrilegious. Most of it is Blasphemy to almighty God!

Natalie Maines' latest remarks really 'hit home,' so-to-speak, as they came during a visit to her birthplace and hometown as a child, Lubbock, TX. She started her interview with the Lubbock Avalanche-Journal on a good note. But when asked if she was able to attend her childhood church while visiting, an irritated Maines responded...

"No way! I hated how my parents always made me go to that place."

As if that wasn't enough to disturb most local churchgoers, Maines added...

"Besides, now that I'm probably richer than God, maybe he should come to me!"

Their song "Sin Wagon" is one of the most Blasphemous country songs that I have heard. In the song they talk about Flying away to Glory on a Sin Wagon!

Someone might say that not every song that the world has talks about sin, sex, or drinking. Most do (90%+) but there are a few out there that do not. But those songs are not songs that bring honor and glory to God, and they are sung and produced by the same people that sing and produce all of the other garbage.

So what's wrong with the worlds music? It is Satanic, Sensual, Sinful, Sacrilegious, and a Child of God has no business listening to it.

What's wrong with the worlds Music Part 2

Not only is this world's music satanic, but it is sensual. Everything about today's music appeals to the flesh. It's all about lust, sex, and rebellion. That's not the words of some independent baptist preacher, these words come from the very music makers themselves.

"Our music is capable of causing emotional instability, disorganized behavior, rebellion and even revolution." ...'The Beatles'

"The throbbing beat of rock provides a vital sexual release for adolescent audiences."...Jan Berry

"Pop music is sex, and you have to hit them in the face with it."...Andrew Oldham (recording manager for the 'Rolling Stones')

"I'm in rock music for the sex and narcotics."...Glenn Frey of 'The Eagles'
"Rock 'n' roll is 99% sex."...John Oates

"Everyone takes it for granted that rock and roll is synonymous with sex."...Chris Stein, lead guitarist with 'Blondie.'

"Rock music is sex. The beat matches the body rhythms."...Frank Zappa, superstar of 'Mothers of Invention' fame.

Rocker Frank Zappa (who discovered the awful truth December 4, 1993 the second he died) proudly boasted:
"I'm the devil's advocate. We have our own worshippers who are called 'groupies.' Girls will give their bodies to musicians as you would give a sacrifice to a god."

Miley Cirus is one of the most influential celebrities over our teenagers and young people today. During her performance at the 2009 Teen Choice Awards she danced on a stripper's pole. I've read some articles that defended what she did, they said that she did not strip, or really dance, but the implication is still there no matter how you look at it. On and on we could go, about people like Brittney Spears, Madaonna, Rihanna and how their music and lifestyles promote sexual immorality.

Rock music and Pop music are not the only one's to blame. It's every form of music out there. Most of Country music is about immorality.

Kenny Chesney;
Summertime
Anything but mine

Toby Keith;
I'm just talking about tonight
Stays in Mexico
A little less talk and a lot more action

Gretchen Wilson;
I'm here for the party
California Girl

These are just a few of the MANY songs that promote adultery, fornication, and immorality. There is no way a person can listen to these kind of songs, and keep a clean heart, or obey the words of Philippians 4:8.

Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, think on these things.

We'll never be able to think on "These things" when we are listening to songs of adultery and fornication.
What's wrong with the worlds music? It is Sensual!

What's Wrong with the Worlds Music? Part 1

I am amazed and heart broken by the number of God's people that see nothing wrong with listening to the music of this world. The bible clearly tells us to "come out from among them", and that means our music too! What is really discouraging to me is to see people that told me when I was a teenager that I shouldn't be listening to secular music, and now they do! Has God changed? Absolutely not! The kind of music that Christians should listen to should be music that Honors and Glorifies God!

Eph 5:19 speaking to yourselves in Psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing and making melody in your heart to the Lord.

Psalms 9:2 I will be glad and rejoice in thee: I will sing PRAISE to thy name, O thou most High.

Psalms 21:13 Be thou exalted, LORD, in thine own strength: so will we SING and PRAISE thy power.

Psalms 28:7 The LORD is my strength and my shield; my heart trusted in him, and I am helped: therefore my heart greatly rejoiceth; and with my SONG will I PRAISE him.

Psalms 33:2-3 PRAISE the LORD with harp: sing unto him with the psaltery and an instrument of ten strings. Sing unto him a new song; play skilfully with a loud noise.


One doesn't have to look far into secular music to see that it does everything BUT honor God. There are many reasons that can be given as to why a child of God should not listen to the music of this world, but here are four very simple reasons.

1. Secular Music is Satanic

David Bowie in Rolling Stone magazine (Feb. 12, 1976), stunned the music world, when he stated:
"Rock has always been THE DEVIL'S MUSIC . . . I believe rock and roll is dangerous . . . I feel we're only heralding SOMETHING EVEN DARKER THAN OURSELVES."


The super group, Metallica, in the song "Jump In the Fire", commands young people to jump into hell:

"Follow me now my child . . .
DO JUST AS I SAY . . .
Jump by your will or be taken by force I'll get you either way . . .
So reach down grab my hand walk with me through the land
COME HOME WHERE YOU BELONG
So come on JUMP IN THE FIRE."



In the cover song, "The Prince", Metallica openly sing:

"Angel from below . . .
I WISH TO SELL MY SOUL . . .
DEVIL TAKE MY SOUL
with diamonds you repay I don't care for heaven
so don't you look for me to cry
AND I WILL BURN IN HELL from the day I die."


Do these songs sound like ANYTHING a child of God should be listening to?

Paul McCartney said, "We probably seem to be anti-religious. . . none of us believes in God." (Hit Parader, Jan 1970, p.15)

Rock star, Marilyn Manson, proudly boasts:
"Hopefully, I'll be remembered as the person who brought an end to Christianity." (Spin, August 1996, p. 34)


What about the group Nickelback, and their song that was released a few years ago "Rockstar"? Thru the verses of the song he's making a deal with the devil, telling him every thing that he needs to be a "Rockstar".

By his own words, Carlos Santana admits to having communications with a demon named Metatron.
"Metatron is an angel. Santana has been in regular contact with him since 1994. Carlos will sit here facing the wall, the candles lit. He has a yellow legal pad at one side, ready for the communications that will come. 'It's kind of like a fax machine,' he says."

Does it sound like any of this music, or any of these performers are bringing honor and glory to the Lord Jesus Christ thru their music? Of course the answer is no, but why are there so many professing Christians that see nothing wrong with listening to this garbage?
On and on we could go about how this kind of music is satanic. I could not in one blog post everything that I have come across about these groups and how wicked and vile they are. There is so much information on the web available for anyone to see, and here are some great websites so you can do your own research.
