If the song is morally right but the artist isn't, is it still okay to listen too?
If the song is morally wrong but the artist lives a decent life is it okay to listen too?
Where should we Christian draw the line when it comes to music?
I would very much like your input on this. But here is what I have concluded.
- Music was created by God and is very special. With music we can praise God and bring him glory! Habakkuk 3:19 "The Sovereign Lord is my strength; He makes my feet like the feet of a deer, He enables me to go on the heights. For the director of music. On my stringed instruments." I Chronicles 15:16 "David told the leaders of the Levites to appoint their brothers as singers to sing joyful songs accompanied by musical instruments, lyres, harps and cymbals."
- Does the music you listen to cause you to stumble? Or others to stumble? We should always be on the look out for things that could harm our relationship with God. And also with our fellow brothers and sisters in Christ. Philippians 4:8 "Finally, brethren, whatever things are true, whatever things are noble, whatever things are just, whatever things are pure, whatever things are lovely, whatever things are of good report, if there is any virtue and if there is anything praiseworthy—meditate on these things."
- Does it glorify God? As His creation every breath we breathe and every song we sing should be for Him. Psalm 150:6 "Let everything that has breath praise the Lord. Praise the Lord!"
