Mighty to Save by Laura Story

There is an artist that I've never heard of before making the airwaves with good praise music. Her song is called "Mighty to Save" and you can sample it here:

Lovey song makes you want to weep... Whats Laura Story background is she sound?

I've never heard of her before and I don't know anything about her. I think her music is inspirational.

I think that the best music is praise music but praise music without scripture can't necessarily be the best music.

I'm making a post on separation because there are old fashioned Christian fundamentalists who won't witness to sinners in this world because they don't want to lose their "witness" so I want to talk about that because I found out some things.

Should be interesting I was brought up through old fashioned Christian fundamentalist’s ministers and I know their separation views are seen through God Word as a measuring tool and I know they fight against apostasy, though some now have gone liberal as a bucket of smelling dung (Manure). I am from a Psalm singing culture and have heard views of other music as the work of the devil.

Peter

I'm not reformed but according to Tenth Presbyterian pastor Dr. Philip G. Ryken and according to him the two issues preaching faces today is relativism and narcissism. I think that today's Christian pop music is "me" centered in the sense that it isn't saying anything and this is seen in the Emergent Church. When Church becomes more like the cinema or like Oprah then the word is no longer preached and the power of the gospel is lost because preaching is no more about my sins which separate me from God. So when I looked at 1 Peter 4:1, I thought that sin is a reason why people suffer and just because Churches want to dump the word of God for "cinema" and because they want to be more authentic, it doesn't mean that God's plan is over because people will still suffer because of sin. The word has to be preached for Christianity to have any meaning and relativism means that truth has no meaning.

I stopped buying Christian music and started listening to praise and worship music because there is a lot of Christian music out there which is not saying anything. When a love story about the Father and us can be also sung about a man and a woman then the lyrics have lost its meaning. They mean well but if it can be misinterpreted for it to be accepted, then I think it is admirable that they are trying but they have empted the gospel of its power (Romans 1:16).

Luk 9:50 And Jesus said unto him, Forbid [him] not: for he that is not against us is for us.

Phl 1:18 What then? notwithstanding, every way, whether in pretence, or in truth, Christ is preached; and I therein do rejoice, yea, and will rejoice.

2Ti 4:3 For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but after their own lusts shall they heap to themselves teachers, having itching ears;
