Steve Taylor's Song "Guilty By Association"

What Steve says about it:From Clone Club News Flash Spring/Summer 1984, Spring/Summer 1984:

"Guilty By Association takes a tongue-in-cheek look at the guilt by association mentality we sometimes find in Christianity. So often instead of searching the Scriptures, we let other people do our thinking, telling us that God gave them a message for us to "send money to support this" or "not to listen to that." Without the Bible backing up what we say, it's impossible for us to speak with authority, which is the theme behind this reggae-flavored song."

Lyrics:So you need a new car?
Let your fingers take a walk
Through the business guide
For the "born again" flock

You'll be keeping all your money
In the kingdom now
And you'll only drink milk
From a Christian cow

Don't you go casting your bread
To keep the heathen well-fed
Line Christian pockets instead
Avoid temptation

Guilty by association

Turn the radio on
To a down-home drawl
Hear a brylcream prophet
With a message for y'all

"Well I have found a new utensil
In the devil's toolbox
And the heads are gonna roll
If Jesus rocks"

"It's a worldly design!
God's music should be divine!
Try buying records like mine
Avoid temptation"

Guilty by association

So you say it's of the devil
And we've got no choice
'Cause you heard a revelation
From the "still small voice?"

If the Bible doesn't back it
Then it seems quite clear
Perhaps it was the devil
Who whispered in your ear

It's a Telethon Tuesday
For "The Gospel Club"
"Send your money in now
Or they're gonna pull the plug!"

Just remember this fact
When they plead and beg
When the chicken squawks loudest
Gonna lay a big egg

You could be smelling a crook
You should be checking The Book
But you'd rather listen thank look
The implication

Guilty by association

  • Wise words so true for AD 12-30-2011

    "The anger of the LORD shall not return, until he have executed (Finished), and till he have performed the thoughts of HIS heart: in the latter days you will consider (UNDERSTAND) IT ... perfectly.

    LOOK! I am against THOSE (Religious people) that prophesy FAKE dreams, say the LORD, and Then tell them, and cause "MY PEOPLE to err by their LIES, and by their lightness; Frivolousness- Not having any serious purpose or value

    Jeremiah 23
