What does Phillippians 4:8 mean? I always thought it meant to focus on things that are good, not sinful. But any form of entertainment and music made by everybody and anybody, is technically bad since any unbeliever cannot produce good works. I understand if it's an inappropriate song, but what if it's an okay song? The song, or whatever it is, is stained by the evil one (the devil) which is what someone said on my thread about Jack Chick. Why would the Devil want to enjoy a song that talks about non sinful things? I remember reading an article about how a classic rock song, "Rock N Roll Suicide" stopped a girl from committing suicide and she thanked God for showing her that song. If I, for example, listen to a music band, and they have a song about sex, and I avoid it, but then they have a song about wanting their spouse to love them and to not leave them, is that okay? What is tainted by the devil? Anything? Why do I worry about anything? I don't want to sin. Why do I want to avoid sin? So I won't go to Hell. Why don't I want to go to Hell? I want to enjoy the New Creation, so I can be with our Father, and the Son, and Holy Spirit. I just need the right answers, and some tips on choosing my entertainment would be nice. I don't want to feel binded by legalism, and I don't want to be self righteous.
