Question: "Is all rock music against God?"

1. It would be impossible for me to give an absolute "yes" to this
question. To say that absolutely all rock music is against God
would require that one has scrutinized every rock song.

2. For a thing to be "against God" means that it is contrary to His
will as revealed in scripture. The Bible is our only source that
reveals what is right and wrong.

3. We do know what much, if not all, of rock music stands for. 
Much of it encourages satanism, witchcraft, dabbling in the occult.
Much of it contains profanity. Some of it encourages suicide.  Some
has as its theme homosexuality and other sexual perversions. Much
glorifies fornication and adultery.(So does a lot of other music
that is not "rock").  Rebellion against parents and all authority.
All of these things are against God, because they violate passages
and principles revealed in His word.

4. Parents need to know what their children are listening to, set
the right example themselves, and encourage recreation that is
wholesome and in keeping with the word of God.
