1  Entertainment / Music / Pillar VS Korn Reality Check 101 on: October 26, 2004, 12:26:43 PM
 Cool
   I truly hope this info will offer insight and encouragement to all who read it.   I chose these two bands for specific purpose.
  The members of Pillar love God and play for His purpose and the members of Korn do not.  Both groups are very talented and offer
distinct messages in their songs.  God states in His word that the believer in Jesus must sow unto the spirit to reap eternal life.
The one who sows unto the flesh, reaps eternal destruction. The challenge is this.  If we are truly His and seek His will for our lives, we must trust and obey His word and not compromise or deviate from it. If you are a Korn fan, and profess to be a JOHN 3:3 Christian, get info ASAP!!!  Go to  www.family.org/then click on to focus on the family.Next, click on to Plugged In and check out the music review section.  Click on to K,for  Korn and scroll down tho all the reviews about them.  Our society is plagued with MPM,[mind poison music].
As Christians, we are in this world, but not to be of it.
Hunger for what is pure and righteous, not that which is of the devil.
LIVE READY,LOVE ALWAYS.

2  Entertainment / Music / Music Mania ,Delight or DANGER !? on: October 23, 2004, 03:26:29 AM

Hello everyone,
I am new to this forum and hope that God will use me to encourage each of you with truth.
Music Mania is all around us these days. I would compare it the likes of a grocery store exprience. So much to choose from
and feed on. Many Christians wrestle and struggle with the topic of music.  I use to, but no more. Jesus called me on the carpet years ago and offered me His insight to this topic. He kept it quite simple and to the point. Music carries a spiritual message in it's lyrics and sound presentaion, which can affect the listener in a positive or negative manner. What an artist sings about or expresses through playing an instrument, affects the listener. Man consists of a spirit,the mind and emotions{soul} and the physical body or flesh. The nature of man is sinful and not pleasing to God. Without salvation and relationship with Jesus, a person remains carnal. The artist, without Jesus as Lord of their life, can only create from the mind and emotional nature. The spirit, without Christ as Lord, is empty and dead. The end result is Godless music with a fleeting message.
It can only offer the listener an entertainment quality. That quality is the whole sum of the problem. We tend to choose styles  of music that we like and that appeal to our lost, flesh nature. God warns His children not to expose themselves to those things that do not glorify Him and His Son. Yes ,there are grey areas on this  topic. In general, it simply comes down to this. Avoid bands that promote evil and mock God. Evil is everything and anything that God hates. Check out the lyrics and find out what the artists are into. What they write down and sing about is what the listener feeds on. Just like  junk food. It  seems to taste good at the time, but eventually, in the long run, it has a negative affect on it's consumer. The same goes for music. It may sound cool to you
and it's the hot and popular band from the world's perspective, but
how does your spirit and the Holy Spirit line up on the subject?
Read God's word and let His Spirit help  you choose the right and best way to go.
God Bless all of you,
Sledgehammer
