drawing the line between christian music and world
Growing up as a young child i remember sitting in church listening to those sanctified hyms, that would just stir your soul, now a days you cant even understand the lyrics of christian music, same as worldy music, the music is so loud you cant even hear the words, you cant tell if it is a worldy song or a christian song, but give me that old " im a goin up younder song", songs that go to the deepest part of your heart and stirs the spirit of God within your being, so how can we glorify God in a song that we do not even know what they are saying, just the beat sounds good, now i know some songs that we heard in the old days that was called a worldy song, the music gave us a beat and now they are using it is christain songs, my question is this can you glorifiy God in the music you listen too?

Yes you can still glorify God in the music you listen to.

Re: drawing the line between christian music and w
A rule of thumb- is the music and message worthy of Him?

Titus2woman on AFF
"We did not wear uniforms. The lady workers dressed in the current fashions of the day, ...silks...satins...jewels or whatever they happened to possess. They were very smartly turned out, so that they made an impressive appearance on the streets where a large part of our work was conducted in the early years.
"It was not until long after, when former Holiness preachers had become part of us, that strict plainness of dress began to be taught.
"Although Entire Sanctification was preached at the beginning of the Movement, it was from a Wesleyan viewpoint, and had in it very little of the later Holiness Movement characteristics. Nothing was ever said about apparel, for everyone was so taken up with the Lord that mode of dress seemingly never occurred to any of us."

and relate to it? Likewise younger people are more likely to understand a song that goes "Jesus on the Cisco OSPF area 0 IP network, tell Him what you wannnnntttt..." then they are "Jesus on the mainline....".

its because people have compromised truth for lies, and will accept any form of worship, in the songs. that the beats and the rythms have them deceived and mesmorized, is it just a emotional frenzie, or it is a real touch of the Holyghost,
