A faithful Christian must always discern (a word not often used in the church these days.).
It is one of the Gifts of the Spirit.

“Discernment” means to discern whether or not what you are hearing is the Spirit of God, human spirits, or evil spirits.
Example after example of discernment is given in the Bible.

“Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep’s clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves (‘beware of false prophets’ is said in the sternest of measures!
there will be and are false prophets, and they are Satan’s greatest weapons).

So, you see, we are actually instructed to discern and judge.
Cool story, bro.

Yes I discern that much Christian rock is of God. It has built me up and comforted me many times over the years. Yes there are bad apples in the bunch just like among the hymn singers and country gospel.

Heaven is goiing to be full of loud, thunderous music. I will feel quite at home there.

I thought Rock as a musical style, lost its meaning at least a couple of decades ago.

It isn't my genre, but I think you offer a good standard,
at "built me up and comforted me." Discernment is def key there.

I went to a lot of trouble to get the soundtrack to...dang, what was the movie? My Brother's Keeper? Where they started out as convicts, escaped, sang a song, and got pardoned? (loved that song, btw)

But then I started listening to the lyrics in
most of the other "hymns" on the album; yikes?
Really pretty songs, too.

"Heaven is going to be full of loud, thunderous music. I will feel quite at home there."

Mmm; too bad you aren't going "there," huh? Or at least surely aren't staying "there."
Lol, sorry; I get you, but this language drives me nuts.
I think that perfect silence is more likely in Heaven ("Wherever God Is"),
but admit your possibility also.

Funny. Do ya'll know how much of your favorite Gospel musik incorporated the sounds of jazz and blues? Jazz and blues, holy. Rock, evil.

You just don't like the "rock" sounding music. Admit it. It has nothing to do with your opnion of discerning anything...
