if my spirit doesn't agree with a band that I'm listening to lyric wise.... bottom line I wont support them,

I've always said that Christian Metal is only genre that is brutally honest and uplifting. Unblack Metal is my favorite, so I often hear people say, "Christians can't play Black Metal! They're bring posers if they are, because Black Metal is only for Satan!". To that I reply, "Christians can play ANY genre of music, just like any other human being. Besides, we are the ones that wholeheartedly sing about what we truly believe, while so-called "Satanic" bands are usually just in it for the shock value and/or money! Which one sounds like posers now?"

Singing about Jesus is far more important than singing about your lifestyle!

love Jesus with all your heart and mind , repent turn to Jesus , he died so none should perish he paid the price for your every sin , without Jesus you have nothing !

right on pastor Bob,i totally agree . it's the heart and the love and the message. I need metal in my life these christian metal brothers make it possible for me to not have to compromise!!!

I just found GOD myself and Im a metal head lol so I love what your doing bro!!! Keep it up and God bless!

love pastor Bob. You were a great influence in my life when I was listening to christian music metal bands.

I struggle with this a lot. I came to Christ as a metal head with bands like Impending Doom and Demon Hunter actually helping bring me to him. I'm not sure I would have ever been open to becoming a Christian, and was at one point condescending and hostile to Christians, if not for these bands specifically. I can't now say that Christian metal is evil or fake after it helped me so much.

Metal or not we must glorify God with our music or else it's pointless.

I'm not a big Christian but I love some of the teachings and put them in my own life.

Pastor bob I'm gothic and Christian. What make me mad is when people say. Gothic people can't be Christian. What should I do to not get mad

I have been listening to christian metal music for the past 4 weeks bands like demon hunter, impending doom, theocracy, mortification, narnia, and bloodgood and several others that I am continuing to find more. Moves and inspires me more then non christian metal bands but I do still listen to other bands from time to time

Tim Lambesis said that about that about 1 out of 10 "christian" metal bands were not actually christian. I judge a band by their lyrics not by their title. If a secular band writes lyrics Without all the bad language and violence, I will listen to it just as easily as any "christian" band.

It is written God inhabits the praises of His People. 🏻 Well Glory

Great word pastor. We are to worship our Lord with stringed instruments and high sounding cymbals. There is no higher power than god. Music is very powerful and I love to see strong men and woman of god show that we can win this spiritual fight. .souls at stake and they are gods..Praise him..He is true power.true majesty..He is holy!
