Is Contemporary Christian Music "Christian"?

More from http://www.youtube.com/user/eph112joe...
Nearly 1,000 were injured in Melbourne, Australia; in Beirut, Lebanon, fire hoses were needed to disperse hysterical fans. In the grip of Beatle fever, we are told the teenagers weep, wail and experience ecstasy-ridden hysteria that has to be seen to be believed. Also, we are told teenagers "bite their lips until they bleed and they even get over-excited and take off their clothes." To understand what rock and roll in general and the Beatles in particular are doing to our teenagers, it is necessary to return to Pavlov's laboratory. The Beatles' ability to make teenagers take off their clothes and riot is laboratory tested and approved. It is scientifically labeled mass hypnosis and artificial neurosis. http://conelrad.com/books/spine.php?i...

Rock in Russia? - http://hosted.homeserver.com/warnever...
Evangelist Ives demostrates that there is a message in the composition of music.

Mrs. Fay Dodson of Phoster Club passed this interesting letter to us.The Unregistered Churches of Russia originally wrote this letter to churches in the USA.

Dear Christian Friends, For thirty years we have suffered intense persecution, and now freedom is bringing another great harm to our churches. This damage is coming from the Christians in America who are sending rock music and evangelists accompanied by rock bands. Our young people do not attend these meetings because we have all commited not to participate in secular entertainment. This is a great burden on our hearts. Many come with Bible in hand and rock music. We do not know what words to use in urging that this be stopped. We abhor all Christian rosk music coming into our country. Rock music has nothing in common with ministry or service to God. We are very, very against Christian Americans bringing to our country this false image of 'ministry' to God. We need true spiritual bread, not false cakes. It is true that rock music attracts people to the church, but not to Godly living. We personally were in prison for 15 years and 11 years for Christ's sake. We were not allowed to have Christian music, but rock music was used as a weapon against us day and night to destroy our souls. We could only resist with much prayer and fasting. Now, we have a time of more openness, and we are no longer taken to prison. However, now it is Christians from America who damage our souls. We do not allow this music in our churches, but they rent big stadiums and infect teenagers and adults with their rock music. We, the leadership and congregations of the Unregistered Union of Churches, former Presecuted Church, have made an agreement to not allow rock music in our churches. We urge you to join with us and we advise you to remove rock music from America, and certianly do not bring it to our country. Do not desecrate our teenagers with it. Even the unbelievers recognize it is unholy music and they cannot understand how American Christians can be so much like the world. We can give you the conclusion that after Russian unbelievers have attended these rock concerts where Christ's Word was preached, the people were very disappointed and disillusioned with Christianity. We call this music from hell. We urge all Americians to stop giving money for the organization of such concerts in Russia. We want only traditional Christian music in our churches. This is the unanimous decision of all our leaders.

Signed,
Peter Peters

[Paul Hovey]

Worship has nothing to do with the style of song and everything to do with the object we extol. There are examples in scripture where people worship without music at all (e.g. Mt14:22-33, esp note vs33 where they worshipped 'saying' not 'singing'). Music is merely a medium of expression, and not even necessary to true worship.

This guy is guilty of eisegesis. 1Corinthians14 is a discussion about tongues & their interpretation, not music! Stick to Paul's point, buddy!

[Jacob Franklin]

Modern Christianity is fake, apostate and weak. The music of modern Christianity proves this.

[Dana W]

Amen! This 2kustom character has a satanic agenda, defending this garbage they call "Christian rock" all over YouTube. You should see the comments from some who esteem this so-called "Christian" garbage on this video: watch?v=Lzi6LyHkgpc Ye shall be known by thy fruits indeed. If this music is from God, which it's not, it would hold the power to change lives and attitudes. It does not. These are worldly kids deeply rooted in rebellion, and the apostate church says that's just fine.

[Dave Warneveryone]

Your music sounds like rock and the performers look like rock. It's the world's music and attracts the world and churches have become like the world. When a heretic like Rick Warren takes over a church they throw out the old hymns and the people that don't agree with the purposeless driven apostates. You are blind to the corruption as you have the ostrich syndrome and the Bible says to warn every one night and day.. .

[2kustom]

Thats right. If Jeff decides he doesnt like certain forms of music, he's perfectly free in Christ to hate it, and not ever listen to it. But from the bible's standpoint, he's not free, however, to push that on everybody else out there.

[2kustom]

Well put Gus. And you're right about 'egotistical'. U know, i've made my around some these fundie sites, and i wonder at times whether those with a leader, pastoral, teacher type of office would prefer it if people didnt get saved or even encouraged by musicians, but only thru' them. Its amazing how many people responded to God at Mylon LeFevre or Carman concerts, and Jeff Godwin only speaks evil of them. I think its a prejudice on Jeff's part, on account of how they sound and look.

[Dave Warneveryone]

Amen.

[2kustom]

Thats basically what i just wrote up. No one who is christian should critisize what u guys do.

[2kustom]

Exactly. And thats what makes hypocrites of these kinds of fundies. Its stupid really - some are so stuck in their western thinking that they believe its the western stuff of everything thats sacrasant. The Jewish folks had their own sound like you said. So do the Indians, and the Chinese, and Africans.
