Interview:

The spiritual significance of music is that God created all things, so to me that means all music from Rock, Rap, and Metal. Some fanatical religious groups think that Metal music is the heart beat of the Devil, but did you also know that Lucifer was the most beautiful angel in Heaven that God also created, and he was the director of music in Heaven. Music is not evil or good, it’s music, but the lyrical content can twist your mind into thinking good or evil thoughts. Any kind of music speaks to the soul, and if you have a good soul, it will edify it, and if you have a bad soul, it will induce hate, aggression, and violence. Every body has a faith factor, we all believe in something, so whatever your faith factor is, it can be enhanced by music. Music stirs an emotion inside us to react. If our mental state of mind is intact and all in our lives is good, the spirit of music can really shine, but if we are sad, lonely, and a ballad or a slow song is playing, the spirit grieves and sheds tears, and a cleansing process is in effect. Even if you are not a spiritual person, or born- again Christian, the spiritual significance lives inside us all, sometimes it just takes the music to bring it all out into the open.

The spiritual significance of music is to glorify God with sacred lyrics. To give praise and honor to our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. Music is neither evil or sacred, it is the lyrics in which lies the significance of a person’s or band’s spirituality. God created all music, so it is up to man to either glorify Him, or themselves. It has a lot to do with your relationship with the Lord, and how the Holy Spirit works in a person to write and compose great spiritual songs. Furthermore, it is in a person’s actions, that justify his love for Jesus through writing, performing, and speaking with people before and after their performance. God has instructed us to love one another, to build relationships with others based on the Gospel, and to tell others of His grace and saving love. It is by our faith in a risen Savior that puts our minds, hearts, and feet into action – it is taking up your personal cross that you bear, and to follow in His teachings, in all that you do. “Faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the word of God” [Romans 10:17, NKJV].
