My child is into satanic music like Black Sabbath, Judas Priest Iron Maiden, Bad Religion and NOFX. I understand her taste in music but some of the lyrics in those songs go against Christian values and I want to get her something that she will like, but won't offend god.

Judas Priest sound like Bride on Live to Die. Iron Maiden try Barren Cross's Rattle your cage, or Veni Domine and maybe Haven. Black Sabbath try Bloodgood or Randy Rose's Healing oor Sacrificium. Here's a sample of Barren Cross: http://www-rage-of-creation.blogspot.com/2007/08/barren-cross-discography-1985-1994.html

None of those are satanic. In fact, Iron Maiden's drummer is a Christian. Do your research, please.

Indeed. I was born into a Christian family with a very devout father, and I'd say it's safe to let your kid listen to Sabbath and Maiden if my dad actually introduced them to me when I was six or seven years old.
NOFX is crap, anyway.
As far as "aggressive" Christian bands go, pretty much every band on Solid State Records is safe for your kid.

They would be safe, but not particularly good. Haha.
Solid State really has screwed some bands over though, if I understand correctly.

I'm quite fond of Our Corpse Destroyed and Looking Forward. They're both Christian punk/hardcore bands. They can get kinda hard on the ears if you're not into that type of music, but a lot of their songs have Christian themes. I like them both a lot and I'm not even a Christian!

Some "good"
Christian metal might be As I lay Dying, Black Label Society, and um... ahh who am I kidding. I dont know what the kids are listening to these days. What with the tight pants anywho?

Christian Metal's lame. It's like they spend decades insulting Metal and claiming it as the Devil's music, trying to get rid of it, only to try and assimilate it because they realised they'll never be able to get rid of it. Most semi-decent Metal bands have at least a few choons geared towards taking down religion, usually Christianity.

Wrong. The only Christians who spend all their time condemning metal are the far, far right types. These days, they're a dying breed. In fact, they were the first to condemn Christian metal in its infancy.
But musically, most Christian metal is lame, unfortunately. It seems like they simply settle for being "good enough" instead of being really good.
Here are a few that really rise above the rest of the crap:
Extol (old)
Virgin Black
Vaakevandring
Antestor (old)
Lo-Ruhamah (HIGHLY reccomended)
Holy Blood
Sotahuuto
Crimson Moonlight
Drottnar
Aletheian
Bestir (all they have out now is a demo, but its very promising)
