Rock and Roll is called Satans Music and for a very good reason, it is!

 

Of course Satan is in rock and roll, Satan is the father of rock & roll! And Every other form of Music that does not Glorify Jesus.

 

There are some Videos on this topic that are a must see!

 

Rock-N- Roll Sorcerers, 2 Set Video

 

The videos show how the rock bands are practicing a Satanic ritual during their performances.

 

All of the worldly religions (including rock & roll) worship the god of this world (Satan). One of their acts in Satan worship is to face all four directions North, East, South, West in acknowleging the god of this world Satan. The videos show the rock band performers deliberately going to All four corners of the stage, and giving a salute or some type of pose. The audience thinks this is to them. It is to Satan. Even when the entire audience is in front of the stage the performers still play and face to the back of the auditorium.

 

Just think being in a place where Satan and Demons are being invited and welcomed into. That is a very scary thought.

 

The videos also show Backward lyrics this is different then backward masking which is done by humans.

 

The most phenomenal part of rock music is the message the message is Exactly an End Time Antichrist message.

 

Another good video is Rock & Roll a Search for God 

 

I think every church should have some of these videos on hand to show teenagers and people that are interested.

 

God Bless you,

David

Dia huit, David, connas tas-tu? 
Tomaigh go mah. 

Anyways, I just had one problem with your post. Well, actually, a couple problems. 

Do you think that black people are satan? Because they are the ones that came up with Rock and Roll music. They made up the Blues, and if you can't see the correlation between blues, Little Richard, Halle Berry, and the Rolling Stones, then you must be a blind man. 

I don't think that ALL music that isn't about god is from the devil, exclusively. Ever listen to songs that are filled with good character, such as "Ice Cube, Korea Wants A Word With You," by SKAnkin' Pickle, where the lead singer speaks out against rascism? Is that from the devil? 

I of course, respect your veiws and opinions, David, as I'm sure you respect mine. I realize that this is a contraversial subject and I'm just trying to give you my side of it. 

Slan,

Hi,

 

Whats with the Gibberish at the top of your post??

 

My post about the Music is in regards to the spirit behind the music. People are either Glorifying God via the Holy Spirit or they are worshiping Satan via a demonic spirit. 

 

It is the spirit that influences the artist who writes and plays the music that is at issue not the skin color or nationality of the artist.

That gibberish is Gaeilge, the language of Ireland. 
Many Irish were killed by Protestants for speaking that language. 

It has its origins in biblical Hebrew (not the Hebrew spoken by Jews, but what is commonly called Phoenician, which is slightly different). 

peace-

And the words mean : "God-to-you!" [the standard greeting in Irish - it functions as a salutation like "Greetings" but is actually a blessing that God would be with the other] 
"How are you [doing]"? 

And the last, ta me go maigh, means "I am doing fine". 

It serves as an equivalent to "As for me, I'm doing okey dokey." 

Slan- 

(that means "peace-" or "health", and functions as a parting salutation)

Hi Essaias,

 

Always good to see you!

 

And good to see your forum going strong.

 

Thanks for the Clarification on the Language.

 

Can you provide a translation as unknown tongues require a translation.

 

1 Corinthians 14:9 So likewise ye, except ye utter by the tongue words easy to be understood, how shall it be known what is spoken? For ye shall speak into the air.

 

1Corinthians 14:11 Therefore if I know not the meaning of the voice , I shall be unto him a barbarian, and he that speaketh shall be a barbarian unto me.

 

1Corinthians 14:13 Wherefore let him that speaketh in an unknown tongue pray that he may interpret.

 

1Corinthians 14:28 But if there be no interpreter, let him keep silence in the church; and let him speak to himself and to God.

 

Thanks,

God Bless You,

David

Thanks for the Translation.

 

I guess while I was writing my post you were Translating.

 

Im glad you were able to translate. It is a very nice translation.

W/o a translation no one can tell if it is a blessing or a curse.

 

Thanks again,

David

No problem! 
Now, I may be pentecostal, but I don't know too much Irish, so if there's any more need for translation, I'm not sure I'm the one haha! 
I see you've gotten some flack about declaring that rock and roll is the devil's music. 

Personally, I think all modern, contemporary music (even most of the so called "Christian" music) is satanic and unchristian.

Even today with all of the current tragic events people still Refuse to acknowledge that there is Evil in the world and to identify the various influences that cause evil to manifest.

 

PS Where did you learn Irish.

why, from a book and cassette called "Teach Yourself Irish" haha! 
It is actually pretty good, though I'm not too good at all. It has been awhile since I studied it, since right now I am focused on koine Greek.

So any song that is for the beliefs and teachings of God means that it isn't satanic, then? 
Hmmm...I see what you mean. So "Ice Cube, Korea Wants a Word With You" Wouldn't be a satanic song, because it co-relates with the teachings of God. Ok. Cool. 

And, yes, the "gibberish" is Gaelge. I try to work it in while I can. 

What are your veiws and opinions of music that has no lyrics, such as Vivaldi's classic, beautiful set "The Four Seasons"? I don't really know what Vivaldi was thinking when he composed it. I really don't know. When I listen to Vivaldi, am I listening to Satanic music.

God is worshiped in Spirit and in Truth.

 

John 4:24 God is Spirit and those who worship Him must worship in Spirit and in Truth.

 

The person who writes or composes a song both the music and the lyrics is doing so according to the spirit that they have. And likewise the person that is listening to the music is doing it according to the spirit that they have.

 

In other words Listening to Amazing Grace does not make you a Christian. Having the Spirit of God inside of you does.

My sister has always been extremely fond of Christian music -- both contemporary and classical. While I've never gone so far as she has (at one point she said her music was healing -- she IS Pentacostal which may explain that), she did have some delightful arrangements of both older and newer songs. 
Back when I was in Youth Choir, we did short a musical play -- hmmm, can't remember the name of it -- that was set to contemporary Christian rock music. There were some very good songs in there; however, they were definitely rock music, and there was extensive choreography for each song. I hope it wasn't a conspiracy to have us doing Satanic rituals ^_~ To us, in our hearts, we certainly didn't think of it as that, which is the most important thing. 

(Ah, I miss the days of Youth Choir. We went to Washington D.C. once. I still have the T-Shirts . . .)

Hi,

 

Church events are some of the funniest events in life!

 

To the pure all things are pure and innocent that includes loud music and jumping up and down. And to the impure nothing becomes pure and that includes sitting quietly in a church.

 

Titus 1:15 Unto the pure (washed by the Blood of Jesus) all things are pure: but unto them that are defiled and unbelieving nothing is pure; but even their mind and conscience is defiled.

 

Just curious how is you Christian walk today?

Im only asking in hopes of hearing a Good Report!

 

God Bless You,

David

I suppose you could email them and ask 'em if you can borrow it, save it, and just enlarge it? 

I don't know where the guy got th epic from, to be honest!

If you think Rock & Roll is Satan's music, then you obviously have not listened to Steven Curtis Chapman or his new album, "Declaration." I highly recommend doing so. I love this album...his music is very powerful and uplifting and makes me feel close to God and Jesus when I listen to his music. If 
you want to hear more about the philosophy behind this album head to 
www.babblebox.com to hear Steven talking about it himself. 
Love and light,

Hi,

 

I would call Steven Curtis Chapmans music "Christian Music" not Rock and Roll.

 

Christian artists, writers and musicians are not being referenced in this thread.

 

This thread is exclusively about secular music. All secular music.

 

God Bless You,

David

You dont believe in Jesus who Actually Resurrected from death to be Eternal life for us. Yet you believe Alex Chu and his pinky rings give eternal life. LoL.

 

Im going to leave you link up because it is the Absolute Most Pathetic link ever left.

 

BTW What Possible Association could you have with that group.

You are not Mr. Alex Chu are you?

I was just browsing through some of your old threads....and found THIS one. :) I just wanted to say that I concur with your assessment of rock and roll...and that it is SO refreshing to find someone who agrees with ME on this issue. A friend and I were just discussing this in e-mails today. I must say, 'hallelujah' to finding someone who sees the truth about today's music. :)

Hi Amy,

 

Thank your for the nice post.

 

Im glad that we have similar discernment on this topic.

 

Im curious if you have seen any of the Christian films that document the demonic nature,  influence and message of secular music.

 

The videos are really powerful in that they show actual footage and quotes of the musicians themselves admitting to the demonic presence in their life.

 

The videos are really a great way to share this information with others and Im wondering how many people have actually seen any of them, especially now that it seems like these older videos are getting harder to find.

 

Have a Jesus :o) Day!

God Bless You,

David

Hi, 
I've not seen any videos, though I'm sure they would be very interesting. I have been researching this topic for quite some time, though. I don't believe the demonic spirits are limited to secular music either. It has been confirmed to me that much of what is now called 'Christian' music isn't Christian at all. I know that's not a popular opinion, but it is mine, nonetheless. 

IMO, many Christians are in bondage to the deception that if a song has Jesus in it or a performer professes Christ as their Savior....that it's truly Christian. I am praying for many people that I know to be set free from this bondage. I have tested the spirits behind music I had in my home and that in churches. Many are the exact type of spirits reigning in the secular rock world. 

I have appreciated what you have on your forum very much. Thanks for your nice post. :) 

In Christ,

Amy

Thanks Amy,

 

And again good discernment.

 

Not everything that claims to be Christian is.

 

Whether it is Music, Theology, Prayers, Devotions or Service, unless it is God inspired it is Strange Fire and unacceptable to God and causing death to those who handle and embrace this Strange Fire.

 

Leviticus 10:1-3

And Nadab and Abihu, the sons of Aaron, took either of them his censer, and put fire therein, and put incense thereon, and offered  strange  fire  before  the LORD,  which he commanded  them not. And there went out fire from the LORD, and devoured them, and they died before the LORD. Then Moses said unto Aaron, This is it that the LORD spake, saying, I will be sanctified in them that come nigh me, and before all the people I will be glorified. And Aaron held his peace. 

 

 

God Bless You,

David

AMEN! I'm with you all the way. I am reminded of a Christian music magazine article which showed a performer onstage wearing what could only be described as "punk clothing". His T-shirt said, quite revealingly, "I'm not a punk - I'm a Christian." 

My reply to such apologetics would be, "You could have fooled me!"

Hi Tommy, 
I've been researching this and 'testing' the spirits behind all music that we listen to in our home for some time now. We've trashed a lot of it, because it became clear to us that it was not glorifying to God in the least. And it was hard, at first, to let go of some music we liked so well.....and because we'd spent good money on it. But...we are called to come out of the world...and in doing so, we will have to sacrifice. And in the end, the sacrifice is soooo worth the peace. :) 

I realize that to not see the subtle, [and sometimes NOT so subtle] deceptions that abound in the world is something we all need to keep praying about for ourselves and those who remain in bondage to what we've already learned IS bondage. And in our praying, we have to keep open to the possibility that we've been deceived somewhere along the way...and let God through His Spirit show us the places that is so. 

Didn't mean to preach...it's just nice when I find someone who sees a truth that I've seen....and not many others have. :) 

God bless you......and thanks for writing to me. 

Amy

< ...it's just nice when I find someone who sees a truth that I've seen....and not many others have. > 
In youth ministry, one has to stay aware of what kids are listening to and also what they wear (this is going into another subject). 

Christian kids really want to "relate", and they believe outreach only works if you get into what unsaved kids are wearing and doing. Of course this is wrong, but I'm learning that we have to take a stand for Christ, or just sit back down. 

Yes, I can reach kids by being worldly (I've done it), but lately I've been around mostly adults. They have shown me that my good witness pays off. Everyone at my workplace likes me, even though I refuse to curse and talk about sex in the coarsest way. They still respect my views. 

Secular music from the Sixties is almost always my choice now because I KNOW it's worldly, and am not "taken-in" by some supposedly spiritual message. I laugh at some of the lyrics now - at least they're honest, and listen mostly because of the memories and I just like the sound. 

You're right about subtle deceptions - they are the worst, and the hardest to convince others about. I call it the "paradigm of deception" because, when you're in it, you can't see it. 

Blessings, 

Tommy

Hi, 
Yes, to those who say we 'need' music to 'draw in the youth,' I say.....uh-uh. I was one of those teens....drugging and drinking and living with my dealer boyfriend....when I got saved by the simple message of the Gospel. No music, no 'youth party,' no bending the truth to make it seem 'attractive.' It was the straight, simple, forward message of Jesus Christ---I am a sinner and I am in need of a Savior and Jesus Christ is the Way, the Truth, and the Life. 

Since that time, it has ONLY been the straight and simple messages that have meant anything to me. I've never been taken in by the gawdiness and/or screaming and hopping around that some of the preachers of today are involved in. And I've never seen any purpose to host 'evangelistic' kid's parties, etc.. IMO, kids need ONLY the straight and simple message....and if they're seeking the Truth....they will find it. My opinion is, that if someone wants the truth...they'll look for it. We don't have to cover it up in attractive packaging. 

My husband, who is not a believer, said that the best sermon he ever heard was when the preacher gave a straight and simple salvation message at the end...and made no bones about it and didn't have to cover it in fluff. 

About deception....I was reading a book recently that said the 'very idea that I can be deceived is disgusting---and that very disgust is yet another deception implanted by demons to keep us from discovering the truth about what we've believed.' [paraphrase, of course. :) ] 

God bless.....

Oh, for Pete's sake! 
Listen, folks: this exact same discussion happens every few generations, and refers to the THEN-"contemporary" Christian music. EVERY HYMN YOU KNOW AND LOVE TODAY was once declared "satanic" by those who sought to attach their own private interpretations of scripture, or to add to the words of God. Yes, that includes "Amazing Grace," "Beneath the Cross of Jesus," "How Great Thou Art," "What a Friend we have in Jesus," "Just as I Am," Handel's entire "Messiah," etc. etc. etc., let alone such more modern (as in a couple of generations ago) Christian music such as Dwayne Friend's Country-style "The Little Boy in the Carpenter's Shop." 

Back in the early Middle Ages, under Pope Gregory (I forget which Gregory just off hand -- I think it was the same one who gave us the Gregorian Calendar that we use to this day, which introduced the concept of Leap Centuries to the Leap Years that Julius Caesar's Julian Calendar had used to keep the dates in line with the solar year), all of those would have been declared satanic for the simple reason that they had HARMONY. Harmony violated the "holy purity" of melody alone, or at most melody accompanied by Perfect Octaves and Fifths. Add so much as a Major Third to the chord (forming a Major Triad, such as a C Major chord), and even if the lyrics were the most sacred imaginable, you were committing MAJOR BLASPHEMY! And even the MELODY had to be very simplistic, with only a few specific notes and intervals allowable: in fact, by today's standards, it wouldn't even qualify as a "melody" at all, but as a CHANT, which is why to this day that music is known as "Gregorian chants." THAT WAS THE *ONLY* ACCEPTABLE SACRED MUSIC OF ITS DAY! (Oh, yeah, the Lyrics HAD to be in Latin -- any other language would be blasphemy -- using the same sort of "logic" that an earlier posted used to decry a fellow poster's posting of a beautiful Gaelic greeting as "gibberish.") So, by that reasoning, ALL of the hymns you know are "strange fire before the Lord"! 

This same reasoning has happened several times since then. There were times when older hymns such as the Hallelujah Chorus were considered okay but newer ones such as What a Friend or Just as I Am would be "satanic." 

People here say they have "tested" the spirits behind all contemporary music, even modern Christian music, and found them to be satanic. How did you do this "testing," since the only "test" I know of for spirits is the one given by John, which defines "the spirit of antichrist" as being "any spirit that confesseth not that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh"? How, then, can ANY song, REGARDLESS of the style of music it is set to, that not only confesses but boldly declares that Jesus Christ has come in the flesh, be of antichrist? 

David, you say that ALL secular music is satanic? That means ANY music, of ANY style, that does not directly praise God and/or Christ? Okay, how about "The Star-Spangled Banner," our National Anthem, which has no mention of God? Come on, tell the good folks here how Satanic it is.

Hi ComaliteJ,

 

What I said is that Music reveals/reflects the spirit that is influencing that person.

 

Singing the Star Spangled Banner with the Knowledge of God and His Devine care for America is good and beneficial.

 

Singing the Star Spangled Banner or even God Bless America doesnt make a person a Christian.

 

God Bless You,

David

AMY>>>Being killed by fire 'that went out from the Lord' would be a good clue for the rest not to do the same. 
God bless you too. ;)

Wow killing those that don't care for the same music as you do! Glad you are not in charge of anything but "want fries with that". 

Truth in love??? more like revenge in hatred.

Hi,

 

This had Nothing to do with a style of Music it is about that there is Only One True God. To worship the True God is Life to worship any false god is Death.

 

You cannot blame God for presenting an Accurate and True portrayal of the way things are.

 

And you are accountable for who you worship!

 

Worship God and Live or worship any of the false Gods including the gods of Self and Convience and die in flames of fire.

 

The choice is yours.

Choose well.

 

God Bless You,

David

You maybe have need of learning how to follow threads, ay. This is what I was responding to: 
Leviticus 10:1-3 

And Nadab and Abihu, the sons of Aaron, took either of them his censer, and put fire therein, and put incense thereon, and offered strange fire before the LORD, which he commanded them not. And there went out fire from the LORD, and devoured them, and they died before the LORD. Then Moses said unto Aaron, This is it that the LORD spake, saying, I will be sanctified in them that come nigh me, and before all the people I will be glorified. And Aaron held his peace.

I can guess you are the type who likes to bring contention into forums. Too bad.

ps. There is nothing wrong with someone serving others in their jobs, BTW. Degrading a person's employment is not being respectful. I've certainly done my share of flipping burgers, and I've learned to respect that it is the type of job which takes much humility. I've worked at many other jobs, as well. Doing any job, as unto the Lord, is worthy of respect. Right now my 'job' is that of an helpmeet and mother. Care to degrade that, as well?

Hi Amy,

 

I didnt get that remark about the fries from the previous poster until after you commented about it.

 

It really goes to show that people who do not respect God will not respect anything, except of course themselves, because they have made themselves into a god and anyone or any thing that doesnt fit into their own self-made image is considered unacceptable.

 

Glad the real God is full of Grace and Mercy!

 

I apologize that you were treated that way on this forum.

You did handled it real well.

 

God Bless You,

David

Hi David, 
Thanks. :) That type of thing doesn't bother me at all anymore. I do like to speak the truth back at it though. 

I am very glad for God's grace and mercy, too.
