The thin line between Gospel Music and Secular Music

I have been listening to music in general during my idle time and in my brief stay here on earth for thirty years. I hope my stay here on earth will continue and the situation improves. However, enough about me let me spend a few minutes writing this interesting and informative paper about gospel music and secular music. 

Gospel and/or secular music has many advantages to the human race such as the ability to uplift moods and cause excitement. Young to old age often use it and the gender is not a deterrent. Moreover, on the subject of gender, people all over the world have used music to entice the opposite sex when dating. 




This enticement or wooing usually results in casual sex or marriage. However, the downside is that unscrupulous individuals in the unending issue of infidelity have exploited music regardless of either gospel music or secular ones.

Which side are you leaning on?

The list below illustrates the thin line between Gospel Music and Secular Music.

Gospel music

•   Everybody listens to it regardless of age
•   Everybody listens to it regardless of gender
•   All the music genres are the same
•   Always applies ‘clean’ language’
•   Conservatively mentions sex in a code word: ‘marriage’
•   Employ the Bible as a reference to their songs and music videos (for Christians)
•  It is often adopted as a praise and worship song to God (for Christians)

Secular music

• Everybody listens to it regardless of age
• Everybody listens to it regardless of gender
• All the music genres are the same
• Might use vulgar language
• Explicitly mentions sex as a recreational activity
• Supports living life in the fast lane and being free of any responsibilities

As we have seen above, there a hin line between gospel music and secular music, and more precisely a negligible difference. Many get confused, especially the youth who end up doing bizarre things like being born again today, but a week from now he/she is back to the secular ways.
