It's far more subtle. The legalism that prevails is that of having the 'right' theology.....all the explanations with t's crossed and i's dotted.....it goes under the radar in the awareness of most yet the rightness with which it is paraded is testimony to a works based salvation.

It sees sense in darkness and distances itself from light all the while claiming light. Stumbling is inevitable yet denied. It cannot tolerate exposure. Multiple layers/facades developed/built effectively hide self from self. Self honesty is unknown while wearing the image of respectability. A...

Salvation (life) while in active rebellion is what the arch rebel desires and his persuasive power has not diminished. The great word 'love' is the catch cry of all misfits, (dare I use the word) from new age to charismatic movements including 'christians'. It is flung around like the great...

If you know, no man can tell you!

The OP is about hard rock. This is what is being addressed. Noise and confusion that masquerades as melody and praise ought be obvious as to the author.

the instruments are not the issue John. It is how they are used......just as one's voice can be used to glorify or blaspheme, likewise instruments also. Does fresh water and brackish flow from the same source? Lyrics that are in truth for the glory of God do not accompany sounds (music) that...

Who appreciates Christian hard rock? There is no such thing! Hard rock does not glorify God irrespective of what prefix is used. What it does is glorify Satan under the pretence of glorifying God. There! you have it straight...... wake up!

hello Henry

There you go Holy999.....hope this link is helpful. vsEi2fowTaI

You speak of what you do not know DNB.....you judge by appearances and arrive at flawed conclusions. Didn't Jesus say 'out of the mouth of babes he (God) has perfected praise' ......and yes, God does have a sense of humour. We are made in his image and part of that package is a sense of humour.

The author's of scripture convey the mystery of God. If man does not get it or limits it or maligns it, what he thought as right become his/her disadvantage.

I would refrain altogether. I could not bring myself to vote for one who is an incessant liar. Regarding keeping God's honour in the land, has he not dishonoured God with his lies? of which the whole global community is a witness?......and the out of control rampant spread of pornography...

Ohhhh, him!.......even if he unashamedly speaks lies perpetually?

Who knows what other exchanges took place....probably more than the mere words recorded in scripture. We could ask the question, who else was there to witness what was said anyway. My guess it was either The Woman from which the available information was gotten or Jesus filled the disciples in...

ohhhhh, I must have missed that one!

Now Anne....I've been thinking about your big bad sin......I hope it wasn't voting for the wrong party was it?....I mean, that's unforgivable! :)

g'day Steven......we're about the same age But I'm not retired.....that won't be happening till my toes point to the sky. I get up in the mornings with a spring in my step (that's not a summer, that's a spring) and head to the beach.....I know, that'd be a bit of a jog from the mid west but I'm...

thanks DNB, the hips are as good as new ones. They were put in fifteen years ago and I can't fault them apart from the odd squeak. Oil changes weren't spoken about and thats a fact and squeaking wasn't either which they have done much to my surprise..... and thats a fact also :)....all in all I...

So you were impressed with the facts.....hmmmmm, well, the devil knows the facts.....he probably knows them better than we do.....we can be pretty sure about that......even all the details, seeing he was around when they transpired......but, what is the nature of his relationship with God...

The 'mystery' being the unsurpassed value that God places on relationship......with all his creatures. The value being of such magnitude that God was prepared to condescend and become a servant....even to die for those who chose alienation. (do we even understand what this means beyond a surface...
