"Recently, Chris Sligh auditioned for American Idol and got through the early rounds. His first audition was a song by the artist Seal. He claims to be a Christ-follower and a rock star, and says that if you find that to be inconsistent, he feels sorry for you."
"I personally know Chris and I am just so concerned for his future. He is headed the wrong direction and he believes it is Gods will in his life. When I saw him on "Idol' I noticed his attitude and demeanor was different. He seemed more cocky and acted cool. I am suprised he did not mention anything Biblical. He has always been a Contemporary Christian Musician as long as I have known him and seemed to be on fire for the LORD. This is where CCM leads you....back to the world!"

Freddie Mercury of Queen was a Christian and a Rockstar, as was Bret Michaels of Poison.
ReplyDeleteI was reading the music143 blog and it had something on there about Sean Michel. Apparently he is the same way. It's kind of odd, considering he looks like Jesus.
ReplyDeleteIf Freddie Mercury was a Christian, then I'm THE QUEEN.
ReplyDeleteRomans 1:22 Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools,
23 And changed the glory of the uncorruptible God into an image made like to corruptible man, and to birds, and fourfooted beasts, and creeping things.
24 Wherefore God also gave them up to uncleanness through the lusts of their own hearts, to dishonour their own bodies between themselves:
25 Who changed the truth of God into a lie, and worshipped and served the creature more than the Creator, who is blessed for ever. Amen.
26 For this cause God gave them up unto vile affections: for even their women did change the natural use into that which is against nature:
27 And likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust one toward another; men with men working that which is unseemly, and receiving in themselves that recompence of their error which was meet.
28 And even as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge, God gave them over to a reprobate mind, to do those things which are not convenient;
It is ridiculous to say that CCM leads peope back to the world! CCM leads 1000s of teenagers back to a relationship to the Lord. We each have our own personal choice whether we allow CCM or anything else to lead us AWAY from the Lord. In CCM, you have strong Christians, ranging from Warren Barfield to Third Day. These are fine Christian men that use a God-given talent to show Christ. Just because you listen to CCM DOES NOT mean you are moving AWAY from Christ. Since when does having a true relationship with Christ have anything to do with the style of music you listen to. Just sounds like a bunch of "religion" to me.
ReplyDeleteCCM obviously moved Chris Sligh back to the world.
ReplyDeleteAnd how do you know what those performers believe?
Like Rick Mullins, who was converting to catholic.
What kind of example is that?
And music is not for leading people to Christ, preaching is. God says by the foolishness of preaching, not by the performances of rock and rollers.
