Gibsonguitarist- I totally agree with you about the state of our music these days, but I don't totally agree with your idea about ACB selling out to secular ideas.
....
they say that good boys walk straight on white lines
good boys keep their livers clean
and smoke out of their lungs
cause its all about what you've done
good boys dont make mistakes to
learn from
cause when heaven comes.....
I believe these lines represent what is a big problem in the Christian community nowadays. Many people believe (or the I'm more holier than you" that people cannot not make mistakes. The song is just stating that while drinking, smoking, etc. is not deemed acceptable in Christianity, grace is there to help you if you mess up. No one is perfect, and that is why there is grace.
My point is is that if everyone was strict Bible perfection, then what would be the point of songs being written to try and reach people that are sinning in the world?
Honestly, bands like UnderOath, As Cities Burn and Anberlin have made me reflect on my path with God more than some of the songs from church services. I think that as long as the message is good, you can relate to them sometimes better because they come from a flawed person like yourself. But thats just my 2 cents.
its obvious hes saying. drinking is bad. and smoking marijuana is ok. and yeah all you Christians are going to start a religious argument over this.but before you do find one place in the bible where it sais marijuana is bad.........exactly there isnt one.
