			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>?Christian Rock?, the genre often scoffed at by traditional rock artists, enthusiasts &amp; critics alike is gaining popularity and stamping its place as a sort after genre for the young generation of head-banging, mosh-pitting gurus! Didn?t Christian rock die a couple of years ago, you ask? Christian rock music is growing faster than ever before with Daily News of Christian Rock Music, new artists &amp; albums streaming across the Internet and pumping the airways continuously every day. So where did this religious music come from? I mean this is new right?</p>
<p>&#13;</p>
<p>This type of rock music wasn?t around 20 years ago, was it? Well I didn?t think so until recently, the reality is Christian music or should I say Christian rock music has been around seemingly since the dawn of creation! So why seeing it today all the time? Where were the God Rocker&#8217;s for so long and what happened to the voice of damnation for those participating in anything other than a church hymn or Sunday school choir? The chastity belt of today&#8217;s Christian rock is alive and kicking. There are many religious organisations who oppose this form of music, I will talk more about this opposition later.</p>
<p>&#13;</p>
<p>Most Christians are in favor of this ?movement? feeling that Christian rock music is another way to reach people with the importance of the Christian faith. So why the controversy?, what is so different about Non-Christian rock music in comparison to Christian rock? Many have asked this question and instead of quoting Mr. Bob Dylan ?the answer is blowing in the wind?, I thought I would analyze the facts and see why there is so much ?opposition? to the sounds of ?thumping grace?. After reviewing many rock &amp; heavy metal music bands and performances and then compared them to their Christian counterparts, I did see differences but not many! The stage performance was very similar with the exception of Non-Christian heavy metal revealing more of a dark or sadistic side at times in general there was little if no difference in presentation from Christian rock to standard or Non-Christian music. The only real difference I could see was in the lyrical content, with Christian rock music  singing words from the Bible and preaching family values.</p>
<p>&#13;</p>
<p>So why was Christian rock music introverted for so many years, seemingly hiding in the shadows from more upright members of the Christian community? Well apparently they weren?t hiding at all, it?s just that I like many people didn?t even know they were around back then! Good old fashioned Christian rock bands like Petra, Stryper, Bloodgood, Whitecross and Tourniquet have been rocking Christians and secular music lovers alike for generations.</p>
<p>&#13;</p>
<p>The voice of rock damnation is still screaming louder than ever in some Christian circles although seemingly falling on deaf ears of a Christian Rocker community that grows bigger every day. Who opposes this Christian liberation? Who else but other Christians! It seems some segments of  who have not advanced to modern day sounds are Bible bashing these Christian rock music head bangers with eternal consequences for their ?misguidance?. The most dramatic example I came across was the seventh day adventist (SDA) church who proclaim that Christian rock music is quote ?Devil music?. The seventh day adventist church preach that all rock music has the ?beat of the devil? borrowed from primate heathen rituals, beating in time with the body?s ?natural rhythms?. I found it hard to believe that people could think this way at first, but indeed it is true and the SDA church is serious about stamping out any and all rock music, or anything for that matter that has a drum beat!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>&#8220;There are some people God has called to evangelism, and they&#8217;re<br />doing a wonderful job, having results. That&#8217;s great. &#8230; God<br />wanted us to do something else. So we got into the area of<br />challenging people, and our ministry basically happens offstage<br />one-on-one when we talk with people. It&#8217;s very subtle, but God&#8217;s<br />doing a work! It&#8217;s entertainment, it&#8217;s fun, its a concert&#8211;it&#8217;s all<br />those things&#8211;but at a subtle, deeper level, it touches people&#8217;s<br />hearts&#8221; (TERRY TAYLOR OF THE DANIEL AMOS BAND, cited by Dan and<br />Steve Peters, What about Christian Rock, p. 109).</p>
<p>&#8220;I love to hear the music playing slow or fast &#8230; Don&#8217;t stop<br />, don&#8217;t stop the music, play it in your own way. . . . I hear<br />dissenting voices quick to disagree. But I&#8217;m on a music mission;<br />they don&#8217;t bother me. I&#8217;ll sing those songs that set me free.<br />Cause kids want to rock&#8221; (ED DEGARMO AND DANA KEY, &#8220;Don&#8217;t Stop<br />the Music,&#8221; Streetlight, Benson Publications, 1986, p. 24). &#8220;You<br />now have songs about pain and death and divorce and sex and<br />relationships and everything that every one of us goes through,<br />whereas at one time contemporary Christian music only talked about<br />the death and resurrection of Christ. We&#8217;re much more in touch with<br />ourselves and our neighbors, which is the whole idea behind Christ<br />in the first place&#8221; (MELISSA HELM OF MYRRH RECORDS, Music Line<br />magazine, June 1986, p. 4).</p>
<p>In Greebville Seminary Conference on Worship Taylors of South<br />Carolina said &#8220;last thirty years or so have seen the most dramatic<br />and speedy changes in Protestant worship in any time since the<br />Reformation. Surely the principal marks and symbol of that change is<br />the change in the music of the church. The development of what has<br />come to be called Contemporary Christian Music (CCM) has become an<br />amazingly widespread phenomenon&#8221;. Due to the rise of Pentecostalism<br />there is some dramatic change in development of CCM. Contemporary<br />Christian Music is pop/rock version of Christian Music with lyrics<br />based on Christian Faith. Contemporary Christian Music became more<br />popular in 1980&#8217;s with Music of Christian Music Artist Michael W.<br />Smith and Amy Grant. Millions of copies of there album were sold <br />worldwide. Download Christian Music Video, Video Tapes, Christian <br />TV Shows, Christian MTV Shows and Christian Music Videos By 1990&#8217;s<br />there were many new Christian Music styles such as Hip hop, metal,<br />punk and alternative styles of Christian Music.</p>
<p>Christian Music Artists like Lost Dogs, Joy Electric and Star<br />flyer 59 were against the new styles of Contemporary Christian<br />Music and they continued to create and compile Original Christian<br />Music. Due to tunes and melodies of Christian Music melodies, it is<br />considered as Traditional art. Russian Christian Music is one of<br />those few music which doesn&#8217;t use any instruments in it, It is sang<br />by choir without background music and Catholic masses in catholic<br />church still perform Bach organ music which were created long time<br />ago.</p>
