Christians seem to have different stances when it comes to this question. The question is asked in these kinds of forms:
Should Christians listen to rock music?
Should Christians listen to hip-hop music?
Should Christians create Christian rock music?
Should Christians create Christian hip-hop music?
Should Christians avoid [insert genre here] genre?
In my own encounters with this kind of question in public forums, many seem to be passionate about their own stance. In this article, I will give my own stance, in which I intend to appeal to Scripture. If we base this on feelings or opinions we will end up with a meaningless answer.
