I have stopped listening to Christian radio stations after decades of enjoying them.
Why?
It’s because many of the songs aren’t about Jesus Christ anymore.
Many of the lyrics are vague and have nothing to do with Jesus or the Bible. And a lot of them are flat out contradictory to the Bible.
For example, one of my favorite CCM groups from years ago, Avalon, has a song that was extremely popular called Testify to Love. Apparently, that song was written to promote LGBTQ, not to glorify God!
And if you listen to the lyrics, it’s pretty clear it’s not actually about Jesus. Yet it was a very popular “Christian” song.
So, if groups present themselves as Christian artists, yet never mention Jesus Christ, are they really Christian artists? (Now, in defense of Avalon, the people who were promoting this agenda are no longer in the group, and they do have many songs that are about Jesus Christ.)
But doesn’t the Bible say “a little leaven leavens the whole lump”?
It does.
So, although there are many true Christian artists that do glorify Jesus Christ, there are just as many that don’t being played on the same radio stations.
So, I just choose to keep my radio off on my commute now.
I sing old church hymns or just talk to God while I commute, rather than listen to music that is so vague that I’m not sure who or what it’s actually about.
And when at home, my husband and I have a playlist of songs we love that do talk about Jesus Christ and glorify Him.
And that eliminates all the lukewarm garbage that is being called “Christian music” from infiltrating my heart and mind.
Don’t keep taking in leaven just because it’s in a “Christian” package.
Remember, we must guard our hearts with all diligence.

one of the things that draws me to catholicism is its deep humanism
you wont find anything like it in evangelical circles
but its a profound impulse that treats human beings and this material world as fundamentally good
i was raised being taught that the material world and humanity were deeply evil, and that we were to seek escape from this doomed planet, where we would discard our bodies, and this earth and the wretched who inhabited it would be annihilated
but ive come to find thats not what historic christianity teaches at all
very difficult to put into words what this paradigm shift means to me

@oliverburdick I think you misunderstand the gospel. If you believe Jesus Christ is who he said he was, and accept his free gift of salvation... John 3:16
English

@oliverburdick BS......Jesus died so we could receive the holy spirit, so we could discern what is right and wrong! If you believe that God says for you to trust a book written by Man, then u r not a Christian
English

@oliverburdick Yeah, cause that is right there in Matthew.... oh no Jesus never said that. He said follow the Christ. He did not say worship a book.

@oliverburdick Which one of the conflicting gospel stories about the resurrection or the baptism of Jesus is 100% true? 🤡
