Does Satan have
the power to pervert music?
Does
Satan have the power to take God’s creation of music which Genesis 1:31 tells
us was “very good” and rearrange it until it is no longer very good? I
believe the answer is yes! Satan perverts many things that God created
for His glory and our good. For instance, when Satan twists sex into his
perverted form it is no longer the wholesome wonderful thing that God created for
us. Since we know this, why do we struggle with the concept that Satan
can pervert music? It is the work of Satan to twist, pervert, and destroy
the original work of God’s creation. That is what Satan does! So,
any praxial view purporting that all music is good, no matter how it is
arranged, is a faulty view.
Can we
trust Satan? The answer is "yes we most definitely can".
We can trust him to always be Satan! He never takes the day off. I
believe he is very busy working on music. Can we trust the music that he
works on or influences musicians who arrange the building blocks of music (which
belong to God)? Yes, we can. We can trust that his perverse
influence will permeate it.
You may ask,
“Is it easy to always tell whether Satan has influenced the building
blocks?" No. "Why?" II Corinthians 11:2-3 warns
us, "For such are false apostles, deceitful workers, transforming
themselves into the apostles of Christ. And no marvel: for Satan himself
is transformed into an angel of light.
