Music can be a gift, It and we need to be kept in check cont...

I have of recent been praying on this subject and feel compelled to add to my above reply. I would recommend that anyone reading this article should also read the other article (posted on this site) titled, 'Rock and Roll and Pop. I have reflected on this article and have since been drawn to Matthew 7:15 [A Tree and Its Fruit] "Watch out for false prophets. They come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly they are ferocious wolves". I believe this same scripture can be relevant to music. It in my opinion is worth considering at least. Consider the fact that not all musicians singing of God are led by the Holy spirit. Marilyn manson sings 'personal Jesus', Is he a Christian? Being honest I don't know much about him, but his demonic looking appearance suggests not! I urge you also to consider the points made about songs by Michael Hutchence. It could in theory have wider implications. This article and the above article are very insiteful, and make me realise we really must be careful. I myself stick to music by known born again Christians and even then look for fruits, and any possible pitfalls. Even as a born again Christian it is possible to make mistakes, or get tempted by the flesh, resulting in lust or idol worship or worse. Thank God for the good folks that bring these articles, so as we can know and find the truth. Thank God for the precious blood of Jesus also, amen
