Hello,
What do you guys think about music? Personally I only listen to Christian music stuff that is played on "Effect Radio", "Air1" and "KLove". But sometimes I just need to shut that music off because even the most supposed Christian music doesn't spark a Christian vibe.
I think that music should be praising God. And the artist should be a Christian. If they aren't afraid to say that they are a Christian or scared to talk about God then I think that that is great. If they are praising God in their songs yet in there personal life they give off bad fruit then I don't think they should be in Christian music. There are some Christian artists that have went out into the secular world music genre and that is great they are getting the word out.
I think as Christians we should be cautious as to what music we listen to. We should pray about it and see the fruit that comes from the music. You also see artists that say they are Christian and radio stations play their songs and they are in the at least top 10. But you look at who they are and who their influences are. And they have bands like Queen and Kiss. Who to me don't represent a positive outlook on music. They may sound good...but are they living for God?
Secular music is dangerous. I'm not saying Christians shouldn't listen to it but if you do I would be very catious as to what you listen to. Satan has a way of sneaking a lot into music. If you do listen to secular music you should ask yourself is this setting myself apart from the world? What makes you different from the world if you listen to worldly music?
Any thoughts?
