bill, just some of the lyrics.
of the songs I'm talking about.
Larry Norman:
" And your money says..in God we Trust..,
but it's against the law to pray in school
You say we beat the Russions to the moon,
I say you starved your children to do it.
You say all men are equal all men are brothers,
then why are the rich more equal than others?
Don't ask me for the answers I've only got one,
that a man leaves his darkness when he follows the Son."
This is to a blues rock type style.
Baranaba did this one.
they were a hard rock christian group in the 70's and 80's.
as goone as any group there was.
BARNABAS: "ALL THE TROUBLE MAKERS ARE GONE..LET'S TURN THESE EMPTY CHURCHES TO BARS /
NO MORE SILLY FABLES ARE RELIGIOUS DEBRIS..BURN THESE BIBLES FOR CHEAP ENERGY"
this is too a hard rock beat.
This song is about the rapture.
and they worte a song that outlined a pretrib rapture and how the antichrsit would decieve people into taking a mark and when the aliens came those with the mark would go with the aliens.
This song is a pretrib rapture escatology.
Like I said. just becasue they interpretated the bible this way doesn't make them not christians.
Chrisitans should allow some leeway on interpretations and not brand them of the devil just becasue they don't beleive like you do.
Of course they wrote the song in 1979 so I they didn't even have the benefit of the no rapture teachings.
the lyrics to this song are out of sight in every respect.
They beat the lyrics to songs that glorify drugs, rebellion, sex,adultry, etc. etc.
Rosanna's Raiders:
" It shouldn't hurt to be a child in this world
But take a look around what do you see Broken hearts broken families"
Every member of this group from austrial is a woman and any one of them could lead anointed worship in any church in the world.
their voices are operictic quality.
This song was to a rock style and about child abaandonment and abuse
REZ: " Goodbye Kathy and goodbye Mom, there's voices in my head. Angel dust and tortured dreams say I would be better dead....
God, you have got to be there, can You hear me now.
Show me how to hope"
REZ band has only been doing christian rock since 1970's early.
they are pastors at a church in chicago now and their ministry is to the poor and drug addict and bikers in chicago inter city.
This song has lyrics that are from the point of a friend who just committed suicide..he just hit a momment of hopelessness and the demons said kill yourself and he did.
The person who was the freind went to the gravesite one day and
ask God to deliver him from drugs so he wouldn't end up like his friend.
Jesus then came and cast out the demons in him and he was okay and accepted God.
I guess you see why religion people could not accept this group or the song<g>
They do nothing to witness to the drug addicst or gangs or bikers and sit back on the couch and watch christian TV and do nothing
while Pat is follwoing God and making an impact on gangs.
Pat Boone will eventually go more public as to why he did a heavy metal album this year.
Pat Boone and heavy metal<g> what a combo.
religion is in an uproar over it...but I could care less about their ignorance. I think Pat Boone deserves credit for obeying God
and having no care for the religious people who are not moving with God.
I could go on and on about groups you never heard of |
