    You cannot drink the cup of the Lord and the cup of demons. You cannot partake of the table of the Lord and the table of demons
    1 Corinthians 10:21
    Abstain from every form of evil.
    1 Thessalonians 5:22
    Woe unto them that call evil good, and good evil; that put darkness for light, and light for darkness; that put bitter for sweet, and sweet for bitter!
    Isaiah 5:20
    Therefore go out from their midst, and be separate from them, says the Lord, and touch no unclean thing; then I will welcome you,
    2 Corinthians 6:17
    Take no part in the unfruitful works of darkness, but instead expose them.
    Ephesians 5:11
    Do not be unequally yoked with unbelievers. For what partnership has righteousness with lawlessness? Or what fellowship has light with darkness?
    2 Corinthians 6:14
    Do not be deceived: God is not mocked, for whatever one sows, that will he also reap.
    Galatians 6:7
    You adulterous people! Do you not know that friendship with the world is enmity with God? Therefore whoever wishes to be a friend of the world makes himself an enemy of God. 5 Or do you suppose it is to no purpose that the Scripture says, “He yearns jealously over the spirit that he has made to dwell in us”?
    James 4:4-5
    On that day many will say to me, ‘Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy in your name, and cast out demons in your name, and do many mighty works in your name?’ 23 And then will I declare to them, ‘I never knew you; depart from me, you workers of lawlessness.’
    Matthew 7:22-23
    Little children, let no one deceive you. He who practices righteousness is righteous, just as He is righteous. 8 He who sins is of the devil, for the devil has sinned from the beginning. For this purpose the Son of God was manifested, that He might destroy the works of the devil.
    1 John 3:7-8
    since it is written, “You shall be holy, for I am holy.”
    1 Peter 1:16
    I will set nothing wicked before my eyes; I hate the work of those who fall away; It shall not cling to me.
    Psalm 101:3

    I listen to death metal as a Christian. Many death metal bands aren’t actually anti religious but it’s just a theme for their music. Many death metal bands take inspiration from horror movies from the 80s.(many of them having anti religious/satanic theme). There aren’t many bands that are satanist in the death metal scene . It’s actually very uncommon and it’s a stereotype most of us hate .
    The lead singer of slayer is actually catholic and bands like cannibal corpse don’t support violence or hate . It’s just a theme for their music taken from real life serial killers and slasher movies
    Religion isn’t something most people talk about openly and you would be surprised how many Christians there are in the metal scene . If you look back to the 80s, many Christians called ozzy osbourne satanic even though he is a practicing catholic who prayed before concerts.

      Cannibal corpse is an interesting band to bring up because the lead singer has said multiple times he doesn’t sing about any politics or anti religious agendas. Their songs are ripped straight from horror movies . It’s essentially “ horror” music. Cannibal corpse don’t encourage violence or glorify violence. It’s simply a form of media.
      Obviously they’re some bands that are valid and you have a point about some of them being anti Christian. the majority of them aren’t pushing an anti Christian agenda .
      Personally listening to death metal doesn’t take any faith away from our lord.

      It's too bad most metal is crap. I like metal music too, but almost all heavy metal bands are complete junk. There was maybe a handful of half decent metal bands, at least two or three. Well, some of their songs are ok. It's really bad. Noisy, no talent, uninteresting cringe lyrics. Heavy metal is a fine genre is what I am trying to say. There just aren't any bands that do it right.

      I personally won't listen to it due to the aggressive nature of death metal. And many of these bands still endorse, tour or support anti Christian bands. Metal, death metal black metal usually becomes an identity as well to the listeners. Even if it's not satanic it still has that same aggression, anger, appearance, aesthetic and spirit behind it. So I'd personally stay clear of it.

    Glen Benton states: "When you reach the point of no return", and "there is no turning back"... I beg to differ, my background is that I worshiped this form of rebellious, and ungodly music... and no one is "beyond the point of return"... Jesus will accept you as you are, when you turn from your old self, and place your faith in Him. The reward is the renewal of your mind, heart and eternal life for your soul. Do not believe these lies of Satan. God will set you free. I am a living testimony of this! God bless!

    Thank you for this video... Belphegor used to be one of my ultimate favourite bands... I pray people like I used to be see this too. I started listening to metal at a young age, which then progressed to more hardcore stuff as I got older, by the time I was in my early 20s, and when I became an Atheist... it became a hunt for the most brutal, most grotesque, most blasphemous and most vile music out there... I openly began blaspheming and openly displaying hatred for God, specifically Jesus Christ (even though I was an Atheist who apparently didn't believe in any God). Why? Because the spirit of satan empowers these artists, and it then empowers it's listeners, whether they believe the spiritual or not. Thankfully I was saved 7 years ago, and subsequently threw out all this garbage, and the lifestyle it brings, with it. God bless!

  • @cerostymc
    @cerostymc Місяць тому +1

    I'd like to hear your thoughts on this take: There is no such thing as "Christianity". Sure, you can use the word as an umbrella term for all religious world views that have something to do with Jesus, but in most situations when talking about specific sets of belief, a broad umbrella term is not particularly useful. What I'm trying to say is, there is simply no real canonical Christian belief. Some people think the bible is inerrant, others believe the bible is divinely inspired but written by humans and therefore prone to error. Some people who call themselves "Christian" even think the accounts described in the bible never actually happened but contain some sort of metaphorical truth. Then we have people who think the moral statements in the bible are objectively true at all times whereas others are convinced that God made the bible specifically for the people of the time when it was written, meaning we are allowed to condemn things such as slavery today. Not to mention the endless disputes between people believing in the rapture and a second coming of Jesus and those who think he'll stay dead. And then there is the entire rabbit hole of historically early Christian beliefs that were suppressed due to political reasons and are therefore not prevalent anymore today. I could go on and on with all these major and minor differences but I hope you get the point. Everyone thinks their particular interpretation of Christianity and the bible is correct and everyone else is wrong, but what even is the point of defending so-called Christian ideas if we can't even agree on what they are, even IF we accept that Jesus and God etc. are real? That, in my view, is the main reason why discussions about specific religious beliefs often fail or lead nowhere...

      For me it doesn't really matter what other people have to say about the bible, if it's inspired or not, contains errors or not. What I get from the bible itself is that it's my inspired and profitable for the man of God. Secondary issues are really not that important, the most important thing is that a person understands the gospel.
