Sure it's a style or at least it can be cited as an example of a style music.
It's difficult to debate when the parameters keep switching, Jorge. Please don't change the character of what I said when challenging me on it.
I didn't actually change anything YOU said, I simply narrowed the parameters to specific examples within the concept of musical "styles".
You said you wouldn't exclude ANY "style" of music as an appropriate media to convey the Gospel message.
I can't believe you mean that ANY music is acceptable to preach Christ.
No, it's a song. Within any given style, there are many examples of songs with any number of messages.
Don't be obtuse.
You keep changing the context of the discussion and creating a disagreement based on what someone didn't even say. Quite frankly I'm not amused.
Come on, cut it out.
1Then some Pharisees and teachers of the law came to Jesus from Jerusalem and asked,
2"Why do your disciples break the tradition of the elders? They don't wash their hands before they eat!"
3Jesus replied, "And why do you break the command of God for the sake of your tradition?
4For God said, 'Honor your father and mother'[1] and 'Anyone who curses his father or mother must be put to death.'[2]
5But you say that if a man says to his father or mother, 'Whatever help you might otherwise have received from me is a gift devoted to God,'
6he is not to 'honor his father[3] ' with it. Thus you nullify the word of God for the sake of your tradition. 7You hypocrites! Isaiah was right when he prophesied about you:
8" 'These people honor me with their lips,
but their hearts are far from me.
9They worship me in vain;
their teachings are but rules taught by men.'[4] "
10Jesus called the crowd to him and said, "Listen and understand. 11What goes into a man's mouth does not make him 'unclean,' but what comes out of his mouth, that is what makes him 'unclean.' "
