When i got saved it was so hard to give up the secular bands i was into. but now , years later, i look back and see how empty and meaningless it all was, because i want to be in the presence of God more than anything now. being a christian isn't about do's and dont's , its about loving God and bearing the fruits of the spirit (aka loving others). when i am listening to secular music, i dont get the fruits of the Spirit, i get the exact opposite, resulting in losing that staying in the presence of God. garbage in, garbage out i guess. amen to wilkerson :)Phillipians 4:8-9 Finally, brothers, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable—if anything is excellent or praiseworthy—think about such things. Whatever you have learned or received or heard from me, or seen in me—put it into practice. And the God of peace will be with you.
