How Can
Music Be Demonically Inspired?
By David J.
Stewart
In
today's apostate society, many people scoff at the idea that
Rock music is Satanic or demonically inspired. I can say
assuredly, Rock 'N' Roll is "the Devil's music."
Music is a spiritual medium through
which philosophies, emotions and agendas are conveyed. A clear
example of this are the Gospel hymns of the Christian faith. The
following words are quoted from the precious hymn, Amazing
Grace...
Amazing Grace, how sweet the sound,
That saved a wretch like me.
I once was lost but now am found,
Was blind, but now I see.
Amen! The message is clear,
proclaiming the wondrous mercy of God's forgiveness towards us
undeserving sinners.
Now in sharp contrast, here's the
words to Britney Spears heathen song, Soda Pop...
A wicked
time to the end, oh yeah, so
. . .
So turn the tables baby,
let's go over the top
Girls we need him like we've never before (before, before,
before)
And lovin it till we drop (we drop, ah, we drop yeah)
We'll flex tonight until they break down the door. . .
I
bet you we can pop like we've never popped it before
Why we keep comin back
for more and more for sure
It's cool Britney when we get down on the floor yeah
And we
go on and on until the break of dawn
Only a blinded fool would deny the
demonic sexually immoral influence of Britney Spear's music.
Much of today's music glorifies sinful living—sexual immorality,
rebellion against parents, murder, suicide, homosexuality,
booze, lust, selfishness, self-glorification, worldly pride, et
cetera.
THE SATANIC MUSIC INDUSTRY
| PART TWO
(we are living
in the last days; by Pastor Danny Castle)
Fans Speak-in-Tongues,
Go Naked, At "Grateful Dead" Concerts
One of the most infamous bands of
all-time were THE GRATEFUL DEAD, whose founder and
heart of the band, Jerry Garcia, died of heart-failure in 1995
while in drug rehab for heroine addiction. The band began in the
1960's with the name THE WARLOCKS (male witches),
but later for obvious reasons changed the name to THE
GRATEFUL DEAD.
The band was known for passing out
pounds of marijuana at concerts and the fans getting high during
concert. Riots often broke out and a Pandora's box was opened.
That's why the band remained popular for as long as they did.
Some people boast of having gone to hundreds of Grateful Dead
concerts over the decades.
Such die-hard fans are known as
“DEAD HEADS” for their loyalty over the years. Fans were known
to speak-in-tongues, rip their clothes off and even claim to
have experienced alien encounters while under the influence of
psychedelic drugs...
Rebecca: You facilitate the potential for an experience.
People have full-on religious experiences at your shows;
they pass-out, speak in tongues and are even picked up by
flying saucers. Are you aware of the impact you have on
people's minds?
Jerry: Not like that.
I've made an effort to not be aware of it because it's
perilously close to fascism. If I started to think about
controlling that power or somehow trying to fiddle around
with it then it would become fascism.
Rebecca: Have you ever
been tempted to dabble in the power?
Jerry: Oh yeah. For the
first eighteen years or so, I had a lot of doubts about the
Grateful Dead. I thought that maybe this is a bad thing to
be doing, because I was aware of the power. So I did a lot
of things to sabotage it, I thought fuck this! I won't be a
part of this. I dragged my feet as much as possible but it
still kept happening! So, in that way I was able to filter
myself out of it and think well, it's not me. Phew! What a
relief!
Rebecca: When you said
before that you weren't responsible, you were saying it in a
very modest way - I'm not responsible for the wonderful
experiences people are having - but at the same time you're
also shedding responsibility for the negative experiences.
Jerry: Absolutely. It's a
cop-out. I don't want to be responsible. But this is also
something I learned from my psychedelic experiences, you
don't want to be the king, you don't want to be the
president because then you're responsible for everybody!

Jerry Garcia was a big teddy bear
kind of guy, loved by everyone. He had long shaggy hair, beard
and was pleasantly overweight, so most people could relate to
him. I always loved his pedal steel guitar performance on TEACH
YOUR CHILDREN when he performed with the band Crosby, Stills and
Nash way back. That was Jerry Garcia on the pedal steel guitar.
He wasn't known as an accomplished steel guitarist, but he made
steel guitar history with that song. It is a classic musically
speaking as a musician myself and pedal steel guitarist.
Unfortunately Jerry Garcia was
pulling on the same rope as the Devil his entire music career,
glorifying wickedness through his life and music. Jerry Garcia
didn't believe in a supernatural being, which means he wasn't
saved and went to Hell in His sins without Jesus Christ.
“I don't
believe in a supernatural being.”

Read Entire Interview with Jerry Garcia
Here's a more detailed answer from
Jerry Garcia himself concerning his beliefs in a New Age type
god...
David: What's your concept of
God if you have one?
Jerry: I was raised a Catholic
so it's very hard for me to get
out of that way of thinking.
Fundamentally I'm a Christian in
that I believe that to love your
enemy is a good idea somehow.
Also, I feel that I'm enclosed
within a Christian framework so
huge that I don't believe it's
possible to escape it, it's so
much a part of the western point
of view. So I admit it, and I
also believe that real
Christianity is okay. I just
don't like the exclusivity
clause.
But as far as God goes, I think
that there is a higher order of
intelligence something along the
lines of whatever it is that
makes the DNA work. Whatever it
is that keeps our bodies
functioning and our cells
changing, the organizing
principle - whatever it is that
created all these wonderful
life-forms that we're surrounded
by in its incredible detail.
There's definitely a huge vast
wisdom of some kind at work
here. Whether it's personal -
whether there's a point of view
in there, or whether we're the
point of view, I think is up for
discussion. I don't believe in a
supernatural being.
Rebecca: What about your
personal experience of what you
may have described as God?
Jerry: I've been spoken to by a
higher order of intelligence - I
thought it was God. It was a
very personal God in that it had
exactly the same sense of humor
that I have (laughter). I
interpret that as being the next
level of consciousness, but
maybe there's a hierarchical set
of consciousnesses. My
experience is that there is one
smarter than me, that can talk
to me, and there's also the
biological one that I spoke
about.
David: Do you feel that there's
a divine plan at work in nature?
Jerry: I don't know about a
plan. I don't know whether it
cares to express itself that way
or even if matters such as
developmental constructs along
time have any relevance to this
particular God point of view. It
may be a steady-state God that
exists out beyond space-time
beyond our experience, or around
it, or contemporary with it, or
it may function in the moment -
I have no idea.
One of the primary means by which
the Devil possesses people is through substance abuse, whether
it be alcohol, drugs, et cetera. Alcoholics have been known to
commit unspeakable acts of horror, only to awake the next day
and not remember anything that happened. many drug users, as
well as alcoholics, have testified to seeing demons and strange
happenings that they cannot explain (but attest to the power of
Satan).
It is a known fact that many Rock
'N' Roll singers and musicians take illegal drugs before their
concerts to assist them in performing in concert. In many videos
you can actually see that the singer or musician is high on
something, and they are giving an awesome performance (in most
cases). A little too much of whatever their taking and they'll
end up like falling half dead on the platform (which has
happened quite a few times in music history).
Demonic influence is popular in
Hollywood as much as the music industry.
Church Of Satan founder (1966)
Anton LaVey (who wrote The Satanic Bible in 1969)
stated...
“Keep yourself constantly... open to the demons who will whisper in your ear. An old meaning of demon used to be
closer to muse-a guiding, inspirational spirit.”
SOURCE: Anton LaVey, CHURCH OF SATAN, Page 110.
In “DAIRY OF A MADMAN” (1981), Satanist OZZY OSBOURNE
sings, “Rock 'N' Roll is my religion and my law, won't ever change” ...
Did you get that? ... MY RELIGION AND MY LAW!!!
Demonic Spirits... The
"Spirit of Rock 'N' Roll"
The Bible states in Ephesians
2:2... "Wherein in time past ye walked according to the
course of this world, according to the prince of the power of
the air, the spirit that now worketh in the children
of disobedience." Satan is a spirit. Demons are spirits. God
is a Spirit (John 4:24). God created man in His threefold image
of body, soul and spirit. Man is a spirit. As such, the human
spirit is susceptible to spiritual influences by other sprits,
whether they be good or evil. This is how Rock 'N' Roll can be
demonically inspired and inspiring. It is a matter of spiritual
influence.
In a 1991 unreleased project by
Brian Wilson of The Beach Boys titled SWEET INSANITY,
he wrote a song called, Spirit of Rock 'N' Roll with the
lyrics...
The memories still hold us together
No matter if we're young or old
As long as there's music we'll all live forever
In the spirit of rock and roll
Once it's in your blood
You won't be the same no more
Reaching every land
From L.A. to Tokyo
It's in the heart of every boy and girl
Everywhere all around the world
The spirit (the spirit) the spirit (the spirit)

Now it's the heart that's behind the beat
The only sound that is complete
The spirit (the spirit) the spirit (the spirit)
The spirit of rock n roll
The spirit (the spirit) the spirit (the spirit)

The spirit of rock n roll
54 TIMES! Brian Wilson uses
the word "spirit" in his song. Clearly, Rock music is all about
influencing one's spirit. Carefully notice what Brian Wilson
said in his song... Once it's in
your blood, You won't be the same no more! Like a domesticated animal who's
tasted blood for the first time, so is a youth who has tasted
the blood of Rock 'N' Roll.
Legendary guitarist,
Carlos Santana has publicly
admitted having regular contact with a demon named "Metatron"
since 1994. Stephen Davis in the Hammer of the Gods,
details the occult inspiration of "Stairway to Heaven" by the
Rock band, Led Zeppelin.
". . . Robert
described the 'automatic' nature of the lyric: 'I was just
sitting there with Pagey in front of a fire at Headley Grange. Pagey had
written the chords and played them for me. I was holding a paper and pencil,
and for some reason, I was in a very bad mood. Then all of a sudden my
hand was writing out words. 'There's a lady who's sure, all that glitters is
gold, and she's buying a stairway to heaven.' I just sat there and looked at
the words and then I almost leaped out of my seat.'" (Stephen Davis,
Hammer of the Gods, p. 164)
"He [Robert Plant] often remarked that he could feel his pen being
pushed by some higher authority." (Stephen Davis, Hammer of the Gods,
p. 262)
There is no doubt concerning the occult influence of Carlos Santana and Led
Zeppelin. After the death of renowned Satanist,
Aleister Crowley, Led Zeppelin's guitarist, Jimmy Page, bought Crowley's
castle. The band praises Aleister Crowley in their music, as do
The Beatles and others who love the Devil, and
express it every time they flash the
"Diablo" hand sign.
What Saith the Scripture?
So what's the problem? Why do so many people fail, or refuse, to see the
inherent dangers of Rock music? We are taught in 1st Corinthians 2:14, "But
the natural man receiveth not the things of the Spirit of God: for they
are foolishness unto him: neither can he know them, because they are
spiritually discerned." The Word of God teaches that the unsaved person
refuses to listen to the Spirit of God. And even if they did, they wouldn't
be able to understand because the things of God are spiritually discerned.
It is a matter of spirit. One must first become a
born-again believer,
i.e., to have Jesus Christ born is us spiritually. Every true believer has
God's Holy Spirit dwelling within their soul. This enables the believer to
comprehend spiritual matters from God's perspective, i.e., from a Scriptural
view.
You
see, just as Carlos Santana has been in communication with his spiritual
entity (demon) since 1994; so does each Christian believer receive
communication from God through the written Word of God. Whereas God's Holy
Spirit guides, teaches, and empowers the born-again Christian; the opposite
is true concerning the unsaved, who are spiritually led by the Devil, "...according
to the prince of the power of the air, the spirit that now
worketh in the children of disobedience" (Ephesians 2:2). We are all
influenced by either a spirit or THE SPIRIT (i.e., God's Holy Spirit). We
are either led by Satan or by God.
So, anytime you find someone defending the Devil's music, you know they are
carnally-minded and apart from God. Only a fool influenced by the Devil
would defend Rock 'N' Roll. The "spirit of rock 'n" roll" is a demonic
spirit of lust, sexually immorality, rebellion, false religion, feminism,
broken homes, Communism, divorce, and every other form of wickedness
imaginable.
Satan and Music
Concerning Satan, the Scriptures WARN:
"Be sober, be vigilant; because your
adversary the devil, as a roaring lion, walketh about,
seeking whom he may devour" (1st
Peter 5:8).
Also in John 10:10 Jesus warned...
"The thief
cometh not, but for to steal, and to kill, and to
destroy..."
It’s no secret that Satan works
relentlessly to deceive and destroy as many people as he can.
But the question is, why would Satan use music? Consider the
Biblical fact that Satan's position in Heaven, before his fall,
involved music ...
"Thy pomp is
brought down to the grave, and the noise of thy viols
[stringed instruments]:
the worm is spread under thee, and the worms cover thee. How
art thou fallen from heaven, O Lucifer, son of the morning!
how art thou cut down to the ground, which didst weaken the
nations!
(Isaiah14:11-12).
Here is
another passage which clearly refers to Lucifer the archangel,
who became the serpent, Satan...
"Thou
hast been in Eden the garden of God; every precious stone
was thy covering, the sardius, topaz, and the diamond, the
beryl, the onyx, and the jasper, the sapphire, the emerald,
and the carbuncle, and gold: the workmanship of thy tabrets
and of thy pipes was prepared in thee in the day that thou
wast created.Thou art the anointed cherub that covereth; and
I have set thee so: thou wast upon the holy mountain of God;
thou hast walked up and down in the midst of the stones of
fire. Thou wast perfect in thy ways from the day that thou
wast created, till iniquity was found in thee.By the
multitude of thy merchandise they have filled the midst of
thee with violence, and thou hast sinned: therefore I will
cast thee as profane out of the mountain of God: and I will
destroy thee, O covering cherub, from the midst of the
stones of fire"
(Ezekiel 28:13-16).
The preceding passages of Scripture
clearly reveal to us some interesting facts about Satan:
- Satan is a fallen angel (Isaiah
14:12, Ezekiel 28:14,16)
- Satan clearly has natural
musical abilities (Isaiah 14:11;
Ezekiel 28:13)
- Satan seeks to devour (to
kill, steal and destroy) as many lives as he can (1st Peter
5:8, John 10:10).
Satan is a musical genius. Music is
a natural ability of Satan. He’s a musical being and he has
extensive experience having used it to worship God before his
fall. It’s no wonder we find musician after musician influenced
supernaturally when it comes to music. Our prayer is that people
would realize the powerful influence Satan has over much of
today’s music, as the scriptures above reveal.
The Beatles
deceitfully came to America as decent looking young men, but then
led a generation of America's youth to become hippies, drug addicts,
rebels, sexual degenerates, and God-haters.
The love of money truly is the
root of all evil. Hundreds-of-billions of dollars have been made
by the Rock 'N' Roll industry, at the expense of America's
moral
backbone. Abortion never would have been legalized in the
United States had it not been for the evil influences of Rock N' Roll. The god of Rock 'N' Roll is fornication. John Oates of Hall and
Oates said... "Rock 'n' roll is 99% sex." He is
correct, and the end result became millions of unwanted pregnancies. Rock 'N' Roll also fueled the
Feminist Movement (rebellion) in America,
which naturally led to millions of heathen women demanding abortions. This is the so-called "Love" which The Beatles brought to America
through their vile music.
Music and
Sexual Immorality
Sting, lead
singer of the Rock band, The Police, sang the
song, Spirits In The Material World. In the song he sings
the words... "We are spirits in the material world." Clearly, as
seen with Brian Wilson's lyrics, the Rock performers fully
understand the spiritual nature of man and music. Music is a
spiritual vehicle. When Ozzy Osbourne was
asked his opinion concerning allegations by angry parents that
his music induces suicide in teenagers, Ozzy replied, "My music
doesn't make people crazy, it just provides a vehicle for crazy
people to ride on." Ozzy admits that his music is for "crazy"
people.
Ozzy is correct that
music is a "vehicle" for people to ride on, which is why Brad
Delp of Boston sang in the song titled, FEELIN
SATISFIED...
"Take a chance on rock n
roll
Ooo are you feelin satisfied
Come on let us give your mind a ride
Let us give your mind
a ride? Yes, that is exactly what Rock music does, whether it be
a ride of fornication, a ride of drunkenness, a ride of
dirty-mindedness, a ride of lesbianism, a ride of rebellion, or
a ride of suicide. The Rock band, Foreigner, sang some of
the most vile music ever recorded; including Dirty White Boy,
Double Vision, Urgent, Feels Like The
First Time, Hot-Blooded, et cetera. Most of
Foreigner's music was saturated with sex, sex, sex and the world
still cherishes Foreigner's immoral music.
Whereas the Bible
condemns sexual immorality (sin); Rock music promotes it as
acceptable and right. Consider these filthy words from Boston's
song, Party...
I cant believe it
when some people say [This is an attack on
Biblical Christianity]
That its a sin that way we live to die [God said
it; not "some people"]
You know, theres never been a more natural thing
[Brad Delp is clearly singing about sex here]
Yea theres a brand new story, but its the same old lie
[Is Mr. Delp calling God a liar?]
So come on
Get ready for the time of your life [immoral sex]
cause Im gettin right in the groove
And if youve got somethin for me [sex]
Ive got somethin for you [sex]
Baby
Its a party and nobody cares
What were doin there [having immoral sex at the
party]
Baby, its a party as long as youre there
Its a party, party, party!
...You know a man
doesnt live on bread alone [Brad Delp is
clearly referring to Matthew 4:4, "Man shall not live by
bread alone...]
Hes got to have some lovin each and every night
[immoral sex]
And a womans got to have it if the truth be known
[sex]
Lets get together honey, its alright [immoral sex]
This is the prevalent
attitude amongst Rockers, i.e., that immoral sex is natural and
acceptable. But it's not in God's eyes... "Marriage is
honourable in all, and the bed undefiled: but whoremongers
and adulterers God will judge" (Hebrews 13:4).
Sadly, Brad Delp commit suicide in 2007, using two barbeques to
poison himself to death. Mr. Delp's last written words were...
"I am a lonely soul." This is where the Highway To Hell
leads. Bon Scott, lead singer of the Rock band, AC/DC, "drank
himself to death" in 1980, just months after recoded the smash
hit, Highway To Hell.
Oh that men would fear the Lord.
The Evil's
of Country Music
Lest it be overlooked,
Country music is some of the most
sexually immoral, vile and
evil music ever recorded. Consider George Strait's perverted
song, OVERNIGHT MALE...
Like a pony express in
the wild, wild west
I'll ride hard all night long.
And I can saddle up fast, get you there first class
Long before the dawn.
You know your mail's gonna get to you
Come snow, rain, sleet or hail
'Cause I'm a top flight, hold-you-tight,
Get-you-there-by-daylight, do-you-right overnight male.
In another song
titled, The Seashores Of Old Mexico, George Strait
sings...
She spoke of Sonora
and swore that she'd never return,
For her Mexican husband, she really had no great concern.
'Cause she loved the gringo, my red hair and lingo:
That's all I needed to know.
Yeah, I found what I needed on the seashores of old Mexico.
Mr. Strait is
promoting adultery, whether he wrote the song or not. The song
is about a Mexican wife who abandons her Mexican husband to run
off with a "gringo." If I were Mexican, I'd be very upset with
Mr. Strait for singing this song. The song promotes a spirit of
adultery, as is true of most Country music. It is wickedness.
There's not a more
despicable show ever produced than
HeeHaw, which
frequently honored vile Playboy founder,
Hugh Hefner. HeeHaw
featured lewd, promiscuous, whorishly dressed women, dirty
jokes, dirty-minded old men... and then to blaspheme God they'd
sing a Gospel hymn at the end. Woe unto the cast and producers
of HeeHaw.
Conclusion
Music is spiritual,
i.e., it directly affects one's spirit and mood. Music has the
ability to control our emotions—to make us cry, stomp our foot,
make us angry, or cause us to dance to the rhythm. Since
Satan is a spirit, he is able to influence our spirit through
the media of music. Singer, John Denver, stated: "Music is a
greater influence over the souls of men than primitive
Christianity." I'd say music is an extremely powerful influence.
It is common knowledge
that the U.S. Military uses Heavy Metal music to motivate their
troops to kill and to intimidate the enemy. During the American
invasion of Panama in 1989, troops blasted AC/DC's "Highway to
Hell" in order to drive Panamanian dictator Manuel Noriega from
the Vatican embassy where he had taken refuge (a tactic also
used by the FBI at
Waco).
"Bill
Clinton and Janet Reno claim those 81 church members,
including 19 children, burned down their own church and
killed themselves, and good riddance. So they put few
survivors on trial, and threw them in prison for 40 years.
We're not supposed to remember that the Bureau of Alcohol,
Tobacco, and Firearms--talk about an unconstitutional
agency--rather than arrest David Koresh on his regular
morning jog, called in the TV stations for big publicity
bonanza, and sent a swat team in black masks and black
uniforms to break down his front door, guns blazing. They
also sent in a helicopter gunship, to shoot at the roof of a
church full of innocents. The Branch Davidians resisted, and
after a heartless siege of almost two months, and after
cutting off food, water, and electricity, and playing
horrible rock and roll through huge speakers 24 hours a day."

Congressman Ron Paul speaks out
Did you read that... "playing
horrible rock and roll through huge speakers 24 hours a day."
What
do you think this type of mind shattering music (noise) does to
a teenager's mind? Argue as one may, there is incontrovertible
evidence that Rock music is damaging to the human body—bodily,
mentally and spiritually—especially to developing teenagers and
young children. Rock music is saturated with Satan's spirit, and
Country music isn't far behind.
Ye Must Be Born Again!
You Need HIS Righteousness!
