There is no such thing as Christian Music, Christians who happen to be musicians I would rather put it, your faith expressed in whatever influenced you may have, arranged and penned with lyrics advocating your faith, experience or values.
Saddest thing about it in many sects of christianity is they flaunt their faith by creating counter culture (Christian Music, Christian Engineer, Christian Painter, etc) and bear their chivalry like they know how to run the world whereas their very own faith teaches humility not righteous arrogance, trying to win a world by putting labels (Satanic, Demonic, worldy, etc) on anything their very faith or the quote "bible says" cliche (already stereo-typed) puts up, praying and hoping the Holy Spirit would zap the suppose to be they are witnessing to. They go witch hunting exposing subtle evil creeping in the world, while failing to see the immorality taking place in their own backyard. While they get trained and programmed in evangelization or witnessing as they are called in their Christian Language, often they fall short in realizing the suppose Lord and Saviour words of wisdom can only come from their own rank and nothing else, only those who speak their same language or act their culture are deemed spiritual or "From The Lord" and swearing in their doctrine He is all powerful and yet box up the very God they believe in in the culture they grown to embrace. If God spoke thru a donkey to Balaam in the old testament, can' t he speak thru headbangers, or beer drinking musicians in today's world? Non-conformity to worldy values, by like drinking, smoking, or dressing indecently and the alike or espousing biblical values does not equate you're Christian...Christianity is never an exact religion nor its truths exclusive to a sect, just as music is never exclusive...The church (as a congregation of believers) per se is not an authority but a student or learner of the ways of the faith. Even your own church leaders have flaws....Christians seem to forget they are still in a fallen world and they are very much a part of it just like anybody else, believers or non-believers.
No wonder the state of the world is at its worst not because there are plenty of evil around but, there are millions of Christians who misrepresent The very God they believe in...When Communist Russia was at its peak, where Christianity is forbidden and the bible outlawed, the Christians survived inspite of the restrictions because, the very core, life and essence of it was spoken not by quoting verses but translating them in their culture, via their artist, novelist, writers, poets, etc...a language the ordinary understands. Feodor Dostoevsky wrote Brothers Karamazov and other novels, there where little or no bible verses but only stories of peoples lives and how they have been portrayed by the character, you can deem their values as Christian without the suppose verses, again did God spoke here? Yet many Russians held on to Christianity thru their own countrymen's ways of commuinicating via their arts and novels or what have you.
Now in this part of the world the Philippines labelled as the Only Christian nation this side of the continent of Asia, can you say we are portraying Christianity at its best? Its ridiculous how even this forum is not spared....
Am not anti-christian nor pro its just go find the proper forum in advocating your faith. Think before you click, ...remember its not the so called outcast or the waste of society that crucified Christ its the religious legalist...
