Go into the world...

Jesus said to go into all the world and make disciples. Apparently, we have a different translation so we're bringing the world into the Church. Instead of the Church influencing the world, it is the world influencing the Church. Is religious rock 'n' roll really ministering to our spirit or to our flesh? This is not only for this type of music. The questions should be: Are people converting to Jesus Christ with this music and is it a lasting conversion? Since for the most part religious rock 'n' roll sounds like secular rock 'n' roll, are the people experiencing a transformation or has the Church made so easy for sinners to transition from secular to spiritual with no apparent distinction? I think the issue here is discernment from those for and against this type of music. If this type of music glorifying God and if the Church is being edified then leave it alone. If not, throw away the LPs, audio tapes, and CDs.

Right on target

Jimmy Swaggart was right. Nearly everything he predicted in this book has come to pass. He makes a great case against playing rock music (with Biblically based lyrics) in the church. I wish every Christian would read this book. The title says it all - CHRISTIAN ROCK: A WOLF IN SHEEPS CLOTHING.
