Casting judgment on things that are based on ones own personal viewpoint and casting this out as a final truth even when the judge’s only credibility is having the power to influence a tiny community has plagued the whole of Christendom for centuries. Many viewpoints have changed then and now proving only that the judgment that is often cast is based on nothing but opinionated hot air and ignorance, the saddest part of all is, people listen. But as the line of a song goes, “when will they ever learn”. Over and over we go.

What is the difference between music that is Christian and music that is evil? Really?

Surely there is music that contains lyrics that deal with suicide, drugs, prejudices, rebellion, sexual molestation, killing and they can come in different genres. Obviously, music that deals with these subjects can never be called Christian music.

Christian music has the ability to lift up the soul. Whether one is a member of the religion that are promoting the music or not. Whether one believes in what the particular denomination stand for or not and whether you believe me or not. Christian music is a longing for ones God, whether for the Christ or for His Father. Christian music speaks of the nobility of the soul and of human experiences. It is the sighing out of his deepest emotions to call to his God for aid, to praise, to thank, to repent and to serve. Christian music almost always is other centered.
