It is a recipe forspiritual delusion (2 Cor. 11:4, 14-15; 1 Pet. 5:8), and webelieve it is one of the devil’s most effect tools in building theend-time one world church.

Central training school sponsored by Alpha International, theradically ecumenical charismatic organization that wasbirthed from the “laughing revival” at Holy TrinityBrompton, London, England.e vision of Worship Central is “to encounter God,” whichis the unscriptural and very dangerous experiential-mysticalapproach of modern worship. ere is a Roman Catholic armof Alpha. Redman says, “Worship Central is a fantasticresource designed to upli and inform worship teamseverywhere” (www.worshipcentral.org).(See “Alpha Course” in this directory.)When asked, “Who are your musical influences?” Redmanreplied: “All sorts. But all time favorite must be the Beatles. Ilove it now that my five kids even get into theirmusic” (http://www.louderthanthemusic.com/document.php?id=2526).is reminds us that one of the reasons why we areopposed to Contemporary Christian Music is its blatantrefusal to separate from the world. God’s Word says thebeliever is not to be conformed to the world, is not to bespotted by the world, and is not to love the world (Romans12:2; James 1:27; 4:4; 1 John 2: 15-16). ContemporaryChristian musicians make no attempt to hide the fact thatthey love raunchy secular rock & roll and they have no shamefor doing so because it is perfectly acceptable in the crowd inwhich they run. When asked in interviews about theirmusical influences and their favorite music, invariably theylist secular rock musicians who flaunt God’s holy laws. It isobvious that Redman is rearing his children on secular rock& roll, and that they have a taste for the world even at veryyoung ages. e Bible says, “And have no fellowship with theunfruitful works of darkness, but rather reprove them” (Eph.5:11). Are there any “unfruitful works of darkness” in rock &roll or rap or reggae or country-western and other forms ofpop music today? Indeed, that is an apt description of the vastmajority of it. “Unfruitful works of darkness” is a perfect267
