| There are so many misconceptions here. Which one do I start with? I don't see any Scriptural references or manuscript evidences for your argument. So you are refuted from the get go. Basically you have created a straw man argument so that you can knock it down. Very arbitrary for a dilettante. It almost sounds as if you are a Jehovah's Witness. You have not stated your beliefs. If so, you are a idol worshipper (you are an idol worshipper whether you are a JW or not). In the NWT John 1:1 it says "In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was a god." There is no manuscript evidence for the NWT so it undermines itself as an authority. If you would have studied the Greek you would know that the word kai (or "and") shows a personal relationship, which would make the NWT believers all idol worshippers as it claims Jesus as just a god among many. Ironically you need to heed your own words to wake up. | |

He's the Defender of the Elect He's always and only perfect He's the Truth that sets men free He's the second of the Trinity He's stands atop the heap Standing on all other gods beneath God of gods, King of kings Left death without it's sting Never used a Nomadian's knife But a sword He used, thy Word of life As a Defender yes He was sent And one day He'll be back again The blind will ask who is this pariah? The child of God shouts "Jesus" Messiah!" I don't think this song is about Jesus, but He's is the only One able to surmount the task as Defender. |

| They wanted to use a bell from a church in England. Well as Providence will have it, that church burnt down and ruined the bell. They had to sample a bell sound and slow that sound down to half speed to get the dirge sound of the bell on the album. | |
| The Beatles – The Fool on the Hill Lyrics | 14 years ago |
|
The song is about Jesus Christ (although pharasaical, and seen through humanistic eyes) Paul said it himself. Paul was raised Catholic (by his mother) hence some of the religious under tones in songs like "Let It Be". Although I don't find in Scripture where we are to pray to Mary (she ins't divine, but blessed among women). All this praise being lavished on John Lennon (who was a Christ hater) for his humanism in lines like "Imagine there's no heaven, it's easy if you try." is easily reveresed by saying "Imagine there's no Lennon it's easy if you try." (a line from my poem entitled "Imagine #2"). |

"A Voice from the past cried "Give peace a chance He paid our price and he's free at last And imagine we called Him a dreamer" I can understand why someone would refer to Lennnon or JFK or M.L. King by reading these lyrics. But Who has paid the price so that not only is He free, but allows those (who hear His voice) to be free? Jesus Christ of course. The Truth, the Life, and the Way. As long as you have liberals masking absolute truth with relativism you'll never see a time "till we suffer no more sadness" here on Earth. The good news is Christ defeated death. Christ the ultimate peace maker said "My kingdom is not of this world, if it were my servants would fight." and "Peter put away your sword." Paul reiterated "this is a spiritual war, not of flesh and blood." I don't know either way if the writer of these lyrics had Christ (among other peace makers) in mind. But that is what I take from them. |

| Metal Church – Gods Of Wrath Lyrics | 15 years ago |
| There are so many [false] gods of the different mythologies. This song seems to be written from the viewpoint that Jesus (as refered to in the third stanza, and the first two verses) was only a scapegoat and will somehow (as Layne Staley from Alice in Chains sang "deny Your Maker"). The enigma is that Jesus is God. He can't deny Himself. The writer[s] also want to mix an amalgome of other false gods into the story. What the humanist view fails to appeal to is that Jesus is of the Godhead, and is both God and Man, and isn't on the Cross anymore. Even the Roman Catholics still seem to venerate Him on the Cross. If the Christian God isn't given the respect for His omniscience, then who on earth can claim to have universal knowledge? (That is a rhetorical question. No human has universal knowledge). That's the problem humnaists have. Their worldview doesn't comport. They want to assume induction, but deny the only worldview that would comport with the pressupositons of abstract laws and objective truths, which are foundations in the Christian worldview. All the pomp surrounding the lyrics is just window dressing to sell the false worldview of humanism. | |
| Iron Butterfly – In-a-Gadda-Da-Vida Lyrics | 15 years ago |

I heard the title was indeed the singer (so whacked out on drugs) slurring the title "In The Garden Of Eden" into what we know it as. There is a comment made by deevo that must be addressed. Most of the world has this false interpretation of Eve's sin in the Garden. It wasn't sex, it was what the First Commandment forbids: Thou shalt have no other gods before Me. Genesis chapter three tells of Satan tempting Eve by saying "thou shalt not surely die" (3:4), after God commanded them not to eat of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil or they will (spiritually) die (2:17). Why was Adam not taking care of his wife (Ephesians 5:22, 25)? The sin committed was the humanistic mandate that we are our own gods. The relativistic idea that truth is whatever you make it. If truth is whatever you make it, it isn't truth. So to say truth is relative is to say it isn't (2 Corinthians 13:8). The Def Leppard song "Women" makes the same mistake by assuming sex is the sin committed in the Garden. This psycosis comes from cultures like the Celts that immortalized the male sex organ. The Nicolatians were another sect that immortalized sex. The Christian God created sex for procreation and pleasure. Catholic doctrine can also be blamed for causing people confusion about sex and sinning. Sex is not a sin when consummated in a marraige. Just look at the sexual diseases in the world. Do you think God is pleased with our misuse of it? |

I have heard the rumor the song is about Jesus destroying the Jews. In the Old Testament a harlot was stoned for her infidelity. The book of Hosea (among others) speaks of this. The book of Revelation talks metaphorically of God stoning the Jews (hailstones) and the "putting away" of a harlot. God sends St. Paul to the Gentiles that they might be "grafted in" to the holy Vine. Today it is not a matter of your denomination but rather has (Jesus) God chosen you (either Jew or Gentile). If yes, you'll know a tree by its fruit, and work out your own salvation with fear and trembling. I am amazed at the ignorance about Jesus. Jesus transcends time. There are alot of arbitrary claims about Jesus. Humanistic relativism refutes itself. If Jesus doesn't exist, what standard of good can be used to make correct judgments? (I ask rhetorically) Is truth a convention? There is alot of arbitrariness, hasty generalizations, and unargued biases among these comments. The question is not whether this song is about Jesus or someone else, but rather do you know Jesus as Savior? The Apostle Paul wrote "You can do nothing against the truth, but for the truth." If you think you know better than God, prove it. (Saying something is so doesn't make it so. You must have an absolute and invariant standard to rely on). Since no human can prove a universal positive or negative, I find the task of proving God doesn't exist, impossible. (To all the Catholics in the bunch. Are you aware that your own catechism says contentiously that Christians and Muslims serve the same God? Now Catholics and Muslims may serve the same God, but it is not the Triune God of Christianity). |

| Skid Row – In The Darkened Room Lyrics | 16 years ago |
|
I remember sitting in a darkened church parking lot early one morning struggling with my faith. I had some questions for God. I have since (by Jesus' grace) had those questions answered. King David wrote in a Psalm that no matter where he made his bed (in Hell, or the depths of the sea, or in Heaven) God was there. So I don't agree with the opening line that claims there is a place beyond the reach of God's faith. He is omni-present. Even in Hell God's wrath will be known. Only a unregenerate heart would claim God is limited in His power. I like the comments by Justintime. It could be about those subjects. Consider that without God [Jesus] (an absolute standard of right and wrong) that those heinous acts (while temporally judged) go unpunished. It is a fearful thing to fall into the hands of the living God. I thank God for His Light in my life. How do we reconcile a theodicy? Outside of the Christian worldview, evil doesn't exist. In an evolutionary materialistic universe there is a just physical pain. How does the Christian reconcile the evil in this world? They accept God's authority. God governs this universe by judging sin. Job questioned God on this matter, and in the end put his hand over his mouth, then said I cannot contend with the Almighty. If you have questions please seek pastoral advice. Read the book of Job, pray that God would open your mind and heart. |

| AC/DC – For Those About to Rock (We Salute You) Lyrics | 16 years ago |
|
I heard that the book entitled "For Those About to Die" by Daniel Manix was the inspiration for this song. Of course AC/DC has added their own bombast to the books inspiration. The book describes The Roman Empire and the effects the sport events held at the Coliseum has on the Roman economy. You can thank King Charles I [of England] for hating Christianity enough to institute sporting events on Sunday to try and rival Christianity. What a vile empire Rome was, and so is the Rock n Roll empire: promoting arbitrary relativism. Do what thou wilt is what Aleister Crowley wrote. (He was a pedophile (among other vile things). I have read some of the other comments: all of EvilLawyer's comments seem unneccesary except for the last word (which he intended as an explitive and is blasphemy). Those of you who don't see the fallic symbols in the cannons miss AC/DC's notoriety. How unregenerate of the rest of you. There is a comment about gladiators and rebellion. I would agree, but the twist is that Christians were fighting for their lives under a despot like Cesaer, and the tyrannical Roman government. Ironically the Slave Rebellion is what crumbled the Roman Empire. The blindness of those in Rock (and other non-God honoring music) is described in another AC/DC tune "I won't take no prisoners won't take no lives, nobodys putting up a fight" says Satan. To often people believe things without seeking out the truth. I think this man made proverb comes close to what I am saying: If you don't stand for something, you'll fall for anything. Truth is not subjective, but is objective, universal and invariant. Nicodemus asked Christ "What must I do to be saved?" The answer (since we are talking about Romans) is Romans 10:9. |

| Rush – The Trees Lyrics | 16 years ago |
|
Laws are not conventions (as is suggested by hatchet, axe and saw) . Laws are abstract, universal, and invarient. They are standards which to judge by. Not agreed upon by men, but is the reflective thinking of God. In a naturalistic atheistic universe how is it possible to have laws, or much less anything else. Humanism is refutable because it is internally contentious. Humanists want to borrow from the theist's worldview, and then deny the very existence of it. Dr. Van Til describes any atheist as a child sitting on God's lap and trying to slap his Father's face. Atheists supress the truth in unrighteousness as the Apostle Paul puts it. He also says where is the wise or the debator of this age, has not God made foolish the [assumed autonomous] wisdom of this world. Rush tries to sell autonomy in "Freewill". The fool [a person that doesn't use his God given ability to reason] has said in his heart their is no God. You might say you don't physically see God, well you don't see numbers either. You see numerals, but not the abstraction of number. 1, I, uno, and ein are all numeral transcriptions, but the number is untouchable. |

| Their describing a Marxist Utopia. The irony is that Rush is assumed to be an intellegent band. They can play instruments, but their humanism a refutable relativism. | |
| AC/DC – Hells Bells Lyrics | 16 years ago |
| Their is a ton of irony in the lines "I won't take no prisoners, won't spare no lives, nobodys putting up a fight." As I read most of the comments to what this song means it is clear that no one is fighting against the relativism because they are immersed in it. Relativism, rock-n-roll, and all other anthropocentric worldviews are internally incoherent, and cannot avoid contention when challenged by moral rational thought. You can't see the forest for the trees. Why would you fight against an issue when it is codified in your heart, and you have not had the scales fall from your eyes. You remain blind to truth. Rock-n-roll is subjective at best. The instance that stars write about an issue doesn't make it fact. Humanistic Relativism is Rock-n-roll root. The rock group Rush are humanists. They believe in a Marxist Utopia. Trees is a song assuming no supernatural existence. We are biochemical masses with chemical reactions in a physical brain to them and those alike. Laws are not conventions, they are universal, abstract and invarient. That is why we can apply laws to instances to prove truth. Satan is a beguiling character, and has duped many (as proven by their own comments) into thinking truth can be arbitrary. What Satan and others don't realize is that you can't live arbitrarily. | |
