I dunno... if a song fills me with lust and wild passionate desire... I guess that's carnal?
Except at my age that really wouldn't be a bad thing and might save a visit to the pharmacist. Or, perhaps the song makes me want to eat a 2500 calorie meal after church ... would that be carnal?
What if the song made me feel like I was THE prophet of God for this hour and that everyone I came across in church needed to be scolded with my stern and anointed condemnations? Would that be carnal?
What if the song made me to maliciously suspect that the UPC's Foreign Missions division was a bloated plutocracy and that MY money was too holy to send into HQ? Is that a "carnal feeling?"
What if I just kept all of the money coming in - because the song made me feel that way - and when a neighbor pastor came by and saw no Partners In Missions plaques on my prayer room walls, the song then made me feel that I needed to tell some sort of story that made it look like I supported missions when I really didn't, so I just blamed the FM division for "taking too much" and I assured the visitor that, "Yes, I support the missionaries directly on my own..." but I really kept all of the money?
Those kinds of songs are just plain carnal.
