    Can someone please tell me what's eveil about the following songs:

    I Just Can't Wait to be King - Elton John
    Born in the USA - Bruce Springsteen
    Maybe I'm Amazed - The Beatles
    Soak Up the Sun - Cheryl Crowe
    Walking On Sunshine - Katrina and the Waves
    Walk Like an Egyptian - The Bangles
    Heard It Through the Grapevine - Marvin Gaye

    I fail to see the sinfulness in these.

    John,

    I, too, would be interested in seeing how the pro CCM folks would respond to that. [​IMG]

    Talking lion. The Bible says that the Devil is a lion walking the Earth, seeking who, he may devour.

    Therefore, the song is Satanic.

    "I was born in a dead man's town". This obviously refers to Hell. Therefore, the song is Satanic.

    Paul McCartney let Linda McCartney sing on this record. Clearly he was under demonic influence.

    "I've got a crummy job/ It don't pay near enough". In addition to poor grammar, this is in violation of Paul's admonition to slaves to submit to their masters. Therefore, this song is Satanic.

    "Sunshine"? Oh, is that what they're calling it now? This is an obvious drug referrence.

    This song is an invitation for our children to worship the Egyptian gods, Horus and Ra. Therefore, it is Satanic.

    The Bible expressly forbids gossip. Therefore, this song is Satanic.

    Well, obviously, you just don't have discernment like we do. Away with you, pagan!

    How'd I do? ;)

    I would be interested to know what sin you charge pro CCM folks with. If only you had enough confidence in your beliefs and courage from your convictions to do so.

    Boy Travelsong you're sure a spunky scrapper!!!!!!,although we would disagree on much of the music you listen to, and think you would be unwise to promote many of these styles,especially to young believers.Remember Paul admonishes us to be careful even if we have LIBERTY!!!!!!!!!!!
    As i said in a reply to one of your posts "what is my sin" I have been a member of a very strict fundamental church in the past and now my church is considered to be ultra right by most.However I have found that some of the cold bloodedest and opinionated people dwell there.Young pastors and christians who are considered shallow in their walk with God can be handed their head in a basket from time to time.
    I'm a Canadian and boy I wish I had some of that Liberty you guys have "A" [​IMG] keep your chin up so they can get a better crack at it [​IMG] ER
    PS easy on us CCM fans up here Ya'hear

    It's the most simple and direct question a person can ask when accused of wrong er1001.

    Take a look at how Aaron had to shut my thread down just to avoid it. He couldn't stand letting it runs it's course because of the inevitable outcome-his whole legalist doctrine comes tumbling down.
