18. WIT-Is Worldly Music Leading You Away From God? Discover The Truth by Robert Veith&Marlou Smith

[@KarenHutchence]

I agree with everything you’re saying. It is true. Sabbath music is revernt and respectful to our Lord.

[@alanemaltese]

Yes I recently saw that most famous people are lucerfarians and I believe that i can hear that in the music. So I have started listening only to music praising God the most High and it gives me a calmness and encouragement that I need throughout the day.

[@gabrieletucker6193]

[@Svdm84]

Thanks again for good work. I was music teacher and lived in world.But by accepting Jesus I had to relearn many things.And now I try to explain to my brothers and sisters about what kind of music should be in worship.Not always it's working.Maybe everyone has to make their own home work. Blessings to both of you.

I wish I had been explained the reasons that music could be harmful, when I was young!

[@evadefaus1171]

Great discussion on a very viable topic.

[@gpl422sda]

I was with Pathfinders and at the big meeting they had music that was like pop but the words were on an overhead screen to follow along. It made some lift their arms and sway to the music. I recognized one or two of the music riffs as being on the radio today ( then).

[@bannmy1]

Thank you for presenting this. Those who have been in a church that does this when they attend a church that doesn’t they think the church is boring and that is because their bodies and minds are used to the stimulation of the music. We need a detox of music and just listen to the straight word of God.

[@bannmy1]

Music should be used to worship God. Songs of the heart. What has happened is the some have been Brainwashed that the music is to stimulate them for the word when the word of God should stimulate music.

[@pitbull-love8810]

Nearer y God to thee IS a really good Workshop Song. I Love IT too Thank you!

[@ramonrodriguez4639]

Awesome episode. Thank you guys.

[@barbaraleigh64]

Brilliant content.. praise God

[@miriamgonzales2591]

I love these talks!

[@ChristTapes2.0]

Most modern “Christian” music is white magic. Every single song starts off with some kind of frequency which is a common practice in witchcraft. The shallow repetition of the same 5 lyrics is practicing mantras, its affirmations and again a witchcraft practice. Thank you for exposing this.

[@pitbull-love8810]

I think that music hast a very big influence To the Emoticons If a human being. And for that, I think yes, wieldky music can people leadvaway from God. When I was a Teeny, I noticed that worldly music ever Made me sad. But Christian music encouraged me and helped me to Look at Jesus and His Goals. And I think about your experience too, Robert. To Run away from god started with the rockmusic in your Life, right?

[@jennylowe6606]

Good work guys

[@ripigogbl]

The peace of CHRIST! I have been watching this program from Brazil since episode 1. Episode 17 does not have subtitles available. Can't KZbin make these subtitles available?

[@VirtuousWoman-d7j]

It is clear that the SOP Writings are very necessary for us in these last days of Earth's history. The SOP Writings, Used along with the Unadulterated Holy Bible, and under the guidance of the Holy Spirit, one would not go wrong. Music is most clearly addressed both in the Holy Bible and in the SOP Writings: in secular settings and also in spiritual settings. We were not left to wonder whether this or that is good and acceptable, or not. But the adversary has confused things, and have worked his artful cunning on the hearts and minds of mankind, which have thrown earthlings into rebellion against God. He lead the Heavenly Choir. In him was the mastery of perfection; his voice was excellent: melodious and harmonious. He lacked nothing: yet he rebelled against God and he is leading the planet in that rebellion: and concerning music, * All Kinds Of Music, { except in reverent praise to God }, Will Do. Secular music ought to be kept in secular settings but to the honour and glory of God; * Music to the honour and glory of God, in worship to Him in the Sanctuary, -performed in the beauty of holiness, in reverent praise and Thanksgiving to God is different. The secular must needs be separated from the Spiritual; But all must to the honour and glory of God. 1 Corinthians 10: 31. May we allow music, proper and testeful music { but not derogatory music } to help in lifting our souls to God, under the guidance and influence of the Holy Spirit. May we, some very soon coming day, join in the worshipful praise to God, with the holy angels that excel in strength. Amen and Hallelujah Amen. 🙏 💪 👍 🙏 😊 💯 💙💕 🙏

Even "christian" words to the wrong music is damaging

[@russhay422]

Anytime an artist says in an interview, and so many do, that they hear the music like a radio that only they can hear then it is demonic inspiration. I have my own experience with this but easily found videos would be the Tori Amos interview with Rick Beato and the recent feature interview with Liam Gallagher of Oasis. This isn’t to say that every song they produce has no input from the artist themselves, but they are groomed and trained by their muses and often do simply receive whole songs. They are often very free in talking about it.

[@tamie2714]

In his excellent book, "Face the Music Contemporary Church Music On Trial," author Lenny Seidel sets the record straight. A concert pianist and twenty-five year Christian music veteran, Seidel proves beyond a shadow of a doubt that musics about as "neutral" as a black eye. Lenny brings out the following points: "True godly music will be composed of three elements - all in perfect balance with each other. They are: MELODY, HARMONY, and RHYTHM. Rock" music" has no melody - only fragments of melody endlessly repeated. Since there is no true melody, there is no real harmony. There is only rhythm. And rhythm in and of itself is not music.

[@kandeeemm9857]

And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God. Romans 12:2 (KJV) What are you doing, brethren, in the great work of preparation? Those who are uniting with the world are receiving the worldly mold and preparing for the mark of the beast. Those who are distrustful of self, who are humbling themselves before God and purifying their souls by obeying the truth-these are receiving the heavenly mold and preparing for the seal of God in their foreheads. When the decree goes forth and the stamp is impressed, their character will remain pure and spotless for eternity. 5T 216

[@pitbull-love8810]

In my Teenie years, I Loved Songs Like Moonlight Shadow from Mike Oldfield because there was the Text "I pray" and nice voice and Instruments. But IT was a really occult Song. Because: to whom prayed the Person singing IT really? IS IT to the God of the bible or IS IT to the moon(God) and to Satan???

[@tamie2714]

Music is NEVER neutral! All music has some kind of positive or negative effect.

[@elizabethagard7930]

The reverence is another thing, to much talking in the Sanctuary, it’s very sad😢😢

[@tamie2714]

Is Music Neutral? The Biblical account of David's playing which drove away Saul's evil spirit (1 Samuel 16:14-23; KJV Bible) should bury that DECEPTION once and for all! NEUTRAL MUSIC DOESN'T DRIVE AWAY DEMONS, BUT DAVID'S MUSIC DID. Yet many Christians today aren't satisfied with what the Bible says. They'd rather quench the Spirit, ignore the obvious, and buy the big lie. (J. G)

[@NatashaAllisonMissionAFamily]

I was involved with music in a very active SDA church in SA. I would be very selective in the songs I chose for the youth. The lyrics had to be very clearly about/for Jesus and doctrinal sound. A lot of songs are very vague and can be sung in very different settings and still feel appropriate. If a song had a lot of repetition I would take it out or only have it once. If a song had a slight deviation in doctrine I would change it. Years after I left that congregation I realised this wasn't necessarily wise as the youth still sang the songs, but reverted back to the original versions, not realising the difference in doctrine. (There seems to be a huge gap in what the young people know about the Bible these days and it is really concerning. A lot don't know what they believe and why.) Another thing that I have since been convicted of is the use of a song just because it is reverent and beautiful and doctrinally sound doesn't necessarily make it safe to use in a church/group setting if the original person/group singing it have questionable lifestyles/beliefs/other songs that aren't appropriate for church worship. It may lead some people into accepting the "other" songs as okay that may eventually lead them to accept the questionable beliefs, etc. just because a nice song was chosen to sing in a worship setting. We generally only sing hymns in our church group even though there are really beautiful appropriate songs that we could sing, but I am weary of maybe opening a can of worms I would regret later on. This is really challenging to some of the non-SDA's in our church group who came from a more charismatic background. The one lady really struggles with singing hymns as most of the hymns doesn't allow her to feel like she's worshiping Jesus. It's more about what we should be doing, be believing, be, etc and very few are directed at Jesus. Hearing her reason has really made me think and I am still struggling with this. The rest of our group really love singing hymns and find so much joy in singing them. Some even listen to hymns during the week, especially when they are facing challenges and find that it helps them. One thing that has really helped me through the years to evaluate the appropriateness of music is if I feel the music will seem out of place or fitting in God's throne room in heaven. And strange enough my music choices have really gone down over the years. The topic of music is such a personal thing and questioning if someone's choices of music is good or bad may rile up really big emotions/reactions. So there will always be differences of opinion and that is each person's right to have their own opinion. Each person has to evaluate their own choices and be really open when the Holy Spirit sends conviction.

The rhythms (not the words) of Rock music have been proven to cause brain damage in laboratory animals. Rock music has been proven to kill plants. The stopped anapestic beat of Rock & Roll has been proven to instantly sap physical strength from the listener. Rock music has been proven to have a detrimental effect on the adrenaline, sex glands and blood sugar of the human brain. Study after study has shown that Rock music ALWAYS stunts growth and chokes off life.

[@tamie2714]

The New Age Movement says mankind can have peace without the Prince of PEACE, but it will never happen (Matthew 10:34: KJV). Most CCM (Christian Contemporary Music) embraces the same warped philosophy--love without Repentance, holiness without separation, and UNITY AT THE EXPENSE OF DOCTRINE. Worldly love will NEVER save the world from itself. Only Jesus Christ can do that.

[@pitbull-love8810]

Examples for good praise Songs are in my opinion Songs Like Romans 8,38+39 Bye Frannie Vink Jesus hold me fast Bye the Martens Family Most Songs from the Fischer Family of Lahr (even If they are at time in Babylon. But the music of Them, is real Workshop).

[@tamie2714]

Jerry Lee Lewis: "It [the Bible] says make merry with the joy of God only. But when it comes to WORLDLY music, rock 'n' Roll.. Man, I got THE DEVIL in me! If I didn't have, I'd be a Christian.... Cause I'm the draggin' the audience to hell with me...."

[@elizabethagard7930]

It’s not judging, God is aGod of order and His Church should follow the thus said the Lord. I joined the church at the tender age of 17 had no problem with the service it was done with not all the craziness that’s being allowed in the church’s today. The Pastors should not allow this kind of behavior, it’s totally unacceptable,, Time the church wake up, they are not teaching the Bible and the SOP, we have all the warnings of being like the world. We should be the head and not tail, I do t care how young the members, they need to be taught the right way,not give in to the world standard. Sad the black churches are the worst, pastors and members need to stand for God and His righteousness not all these nonsense!!! EW says if Jesus were to come right now1 in 20 is ready to meet him, drums and all the noise, the praise team sounds like the Sunday church services crept right into our churches, The SDA standards have been lowered at such an alarming low level!!😰😰😰 My heart hurts to see what’s happening and the Pastors are not setting the standard.it needs to stop now. 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼

Rock "music" isn't even music. It's just noise! Rolling Stone Mick Jagger admitted it. Why won't the "Christian" Rockers? "It's a noise we make. That's all. You could be kind and call it music."

[@tamie2714]

Let's use some common sense for a minute: If music is neutral, why did the thumping brass of that marching band at the football game make your pulse race? Why do they play that soothing Muzak in the dentist's office, if not to calm your nerves? And why did that passing car's blast of Heavy Metal noise make your heart pound? (J. Godwin, What's Wrong With Christian Rock?)

[@ColdGold24k]

Diverse forms of music could be considered heavenly music in many forms when it is the Father, Gods ears, hearing and feelings pleasure or thankfulness, or triumphant or just home.

[@juleebishop5735]

Ocean plays a beautiful tune, but all the added action does not fix your eyes on Jesus. Almost becoming hypnotic in motion and emotion. I find it a pleasant secular song, but not a christian song. Even then, I would hope I would turn away from it. It is repetitive and incites actions, emotions and just Pentacostal like. Maybe charismatic is the word I want to use. In no way do I find the focus on our Creator God. Now with hymns I get a whole different feel. They make me feel closer to Christ & also experiencing His love. At the same time, our hymnals have incorporated many catholic songs which I cannot condone. Words that do not belong in hymns for our church. Music is so powerful in so many ways. We also have to recognize that many 'christian rock' music is not from a source we should have any part. Some words are channeled to these writers who have already given their souls where they should not have. Plus, many pop singers will put religious words to any tune for the monies sake.
