Ears, Eyes, Mind, Heart: Is What You Watch and Listen to That Important?

I’m not saying that those who listen to gospel music are perfect little angels. I’m not saying those that don’t are not. But have you noticed how every song, word or chorus you hear sticks with you? How each thing you saw on television can easily be recalled even when you’re not trying to recall it?

What you take in remains with you. If you take in enough of it, that information can slowly shape how you think, feel and act. It might even flow out of you naturally because it’s been added to your being.

Crazy ain’t it??

Yeah, you can listen to and watch whatever you want! Doesn’t mean you should. Let’s tie in some scripture though.

I Corinthians 10:23 NKJV

All things are lawful for me, but not all things are helpful; all things are lawful for me, but not all things edify.

You can eat all the fatty food you want but don’t be surprised if you develop health problems. Right? You can most certainly apply it to things that can affect your heart and mind towards God. Yeah, it’s that important. It’s no wonder that God encourages us to stay immersed in His Word.

Colossians 3:16 NKJV

Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly in all wisdom, teaching and admonishing one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing with grace in your hearts to the Lord.

Well we’re talking about entrainment for the moment. I love all kinds of music and I’m sure you do too. All I’m saying is be careful. Use the beautiful things given to you to glorify God and keep you Holy. It will help others around you get better too.

Just some thoughts from your friendly Christian Music Pusher. Let me know your thoughts.

Well it wouldn’t be ChristianMusicPusher.com without music right?

Discussion: Why Do The Rappers Curse??

Yeah it’s like beating a dead horse. And I’ve heard everything under the sun about why people do it. As it is so prevalent in hip hip music as smoking weed and baggy jeans…or skinny jeans…it begs discussion.

I get it. You grew up speaking that way. I get it. You do it to get our attention (nowadays rappers get my attention when they don’t curse). I get it. Society dictates what it’s and isn’t profanity. But once you know it’s unwholesome talk and you still do it, why still do it?

What does God think about it?

Ephesians 4:29 KJV

Let no corrupt communication proceed out of your mouth, but that which is good to the use of edifying, that it may minister grace unto the hearers.

Is profanity corrupt communication? Does it help the listener?

Rappers, be honest. Why do you do it? Do you think it’s wrong? If you knew God didn’t like it would you care enough to stop?

Let’s discuss!!!
