I prefer old fashion hymns out of old fashion hymn books.

Now turn in your hymn book to page 358 and let's all sing "Amazing Grace" Amazing grace, how sweet the sound That saved a wretch like me. I once was lost, but now I'm found; Was blind, but now I see.

Christian rock seems like an oxymoron to me.

Is it wroth noting that Satan started his career on Earth by citing Scripture: “Hath not the Lord said...”

Same here.

Some music I consider worship music because it exalts God.

The rest of it, the focus on self part, I consider more generically *Christian music*.

FWIW, the much older Hillsong was good. The focus was much more on God. Now, however, forget it. It’s been going downhill for a long time now.

You get them in the door, and then you use the opportunity to share the word of God with them.

You can use food, entertainment, or a variety of other things to get them in the door.

I am less concerned with how you get them in the door, than what you share with them once they are there! If you get them in the door and then undermine the word of God by rubber stamping every bad behavior they have, then what is the point?

Unrelated, but AI can write really good songs. I’m sure it can introduce the most subtle of ideas within these songs, if prompted.

That would be Peter.

500 years ago, I am sure those in church at the time were complaining about these “new” hymns, and how all these harps and pipe organs are not real Christian music.

No they had harps in the Bible. Remember David played the harp for King Saul. Pipe organs? Okay that is another matter.

Still though this rock and or roll music churches play just does not do it for me.

Wow, sanctimony much. Maybe it is Disntr doing the work of Satan.

And if Satan made crayons would you use them in your Christian coloring book?

No less ridiculous a question.

“Christian Rock” is a horrible thing. Its not Christian and its not Rock. You screw up two things trying to force them together. It makes them both worse.
