I love metal, but don't get along with the lyrics anymore since finding Christ. I would love to find some metal that has good positive Christian lyrics/values.
COD was pushed as christian through the christian market. His music reflect the pain he went through as a result of what what they wanted him to do vs what he wanted to do musically. Then you got the guy from Klank who was part of COD. I talked to him years ago before his concert and it was obvious to me that he was battling issues and was on the dark side of life without being in the occult.
why?
yes why?
Well stated. I personally like 12 Stones but doesnt fall into that metal genre.
I think its more of a thought to discredit the people. Honestly its sorta odd because its assuming they are not a Christian or whatever because of their style of music. Now, I would question if their actions were not consistent with a Christian but nothing wrong with different style of music although YES I would draw the line with death metal.
The drummer from Tool says that a demon helps him drum. Someone looking for christian music probably wouldn't wanna be listening to them. lol.
What about Korn and Jonathon Davis? He is pretty positive right?
I can't tell if you are serious about this or not.....
Are you saying that post was retarded?
That's an excellent point actually.
Well korn uses a lot of profanity as well as a lot of suggestive lyrics. As far as monkey..I'm not down with the whole "save" thing because jesus came as a chance for us all to be saved. Not just saved if we believe or except him. We have to follow him and do the will of his father. He said in matthew "he that endures to the end is the one that is saved" After folllowing him continually we will be judged. Accepting jesus as our savior is a BIG first step. Good for monkey that he turned away from all the drugs and bad lifestyle that went along with being a rock star but it's a constant battle to stay on a straight path. The battle is not over just because he accepts christ. Just like the rest of us, it's always a struggle.
I believe it was an AIDS joke... that he's positive (HIV+)
If the music was crap then leave it at that and don't bother commenting on it unless it's constructive.
Ohh, I'm down with the word. I know very much what it says. But believing in christ is the first step to salvation. For example, Do you believe that one can believe in christ, turn around and say ok " I believe in christ now, I'm saved so I can do whatever I want"? One could continue to live a life of sin and still be favorable in god's eyes?
Don't even think twice about calling out someone you don't know "retarded". I work with special needs children day in and day out. If your going to "try" to insult me. Do it otherwise. But using the phrase "retarded" makes you look pathetic and worthless.
