What if the gospel songs are composed without inspiration from God

To me the best songs are 'hyms' and for others i think it require Holy Spirit for selection.

. i get ur point buh some wud say d source of sum of d musics are aint pure so As a result could affect ur relationship with God

Now I know some songs are plainly rotten and will do no good to anyone, but there are some songs which are okay.
For example, beyonce's''I was here''.
Now this song might not be gospel but it is inspirational.
Its a song that will inpire u and make u stronger, more determined to be someone in life, more determined to make the world better.
U can't tell me u wouldn't listen to it becos it is not strictly gospel?
Now that is just childish and u'll only be doing urself by restricting ur life in such a manner.

Secondly, lets look at a song like bruno mars ''u're amazing''.
Now this is a beautiful love song. But its not just any love song, its a song that can really boost confidence and self esteem in a girl.
Its a song u can sing to ur spouse, girl-friend or mother to let her know she is quite beutiful and u are satisfied with her that way.
As far as I am concerned there is no negative effect of singing this song, just positive, so I do not see why u should blindly refuse to sing it.

So u see, u do not have to restrict ur life(as that is what u'll be doing). Ofcourse there are some songs which will not do u any good but there are others which might not be gospel but are quite refreshing.
I trust that u are smart enough to tell the difference.

what's wrong with this?
or would you have preferred me making fun of your religion?

I believe what makes a song is the message I get from it.My listening to a song the second time depends on the message I get from it at first.I won't advice Christians to listen to listen to songs that center on sex, money, wild partying etc. they would end up corrupting the heart.That is why the Bible instructs us to guard our heart with all dilligence.As for me, I listen to any kind of song (gospel et al) as long as the song passes a good message through the lyrics, has a nice tune and beat.

Anyways we are almost deviating from the main topic........"your opinion about musics"

Col 3:16 Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly in all wisdom; teaching and admonishing one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing with grace in your hearts to the Lord.

Image123: Col 3:16 Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly in all wisdom; teaching and admonishing one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing with grace in your hearts to the Lord.

so?

Dibangoking: so?

So, Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly in all wisdom; teaching and admonishing one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing with grace in your hearts to the Lord. Teach and admonish yourselves in psalms and hymns and SPIRITUAL songs. There are SPIRITUAL songs and there are unspiritual songs even if na Jesus Jesus dey shout all through.

Hmnn.....Examples would be appreciated

Dibangoking: Hmnn.....Examples would be appreciated

Spiritual songs appeal more to the spirit. e.g psalms and hymns. Fleshly songs(what is called carnal songs or worldly songs) appeal more to the flesh or body.It's of little worth to the inside.
