While Realm Endless War “Slay the Opresdor” is, that entire Endless War album is not. Will have to check Forbidden “Forbidden Evil.”

I'd say most of Metallica's albums, personally.

Kill Em All, Master of Puppets, Justice For All, and St. Anger all have f-bombs, and the songs Leper Messiah and The God That Failed could be considered offensive to some. I'd nominate Elm Street's Barbed Wire Metal myself:strangerhoncho wrote:I'd say most of Metallica's albums, personally.

I had to think about this one for a while. I've never thought about this album like this. I guess it fits as well as many mentioned though.
I'll tell you some pro-Christian lyrics from Testament that shocked me though: Seventh Seal from their latest album. Written by Chuck Billy!
Re: Secular Thrash Albums W/Christian Friendly Lyrics
Funny, I've listened to those albums hundreds of times over the years and never noticed the f-bombs! Haha. But since I don't notice language in general and wouldn't have a problem with it since it's just an American cultural hang-up, not a Christian thing, I stand by Metallica! I've always thought many of their lyrics fall right in line with Christian themes and values. Leper Messiah is calling out false prosperity gospel or faith healer prophets who prey on gullible people, and I couldn't agree more. The God That Failed is about Hetfield's mom's false belief in the God of Christian Science (a cult) and how she died refusing medical attention because of her false faith. Again, nothing a true Christian wouldn't agree with.WildWorld wrote:Kill Em All, Master of Puppets, Justice For All, and St. Anger all have f-bombs, and the songs Leper Messiah and The God That Failed could be considered offensive to some.strangerhoncho wrote:I'd say most of Metallica's albums, personally.

Re: Secular Thrash Albums W/Christian Friendly Lyrics
Not a Christian thing? American cultural thing? “Unwholesome talk” is not a new phenomenon related to modern American culture. It is addressed in depth in the scripture & 10 commandments (e.g., “You shall not take the name of the Lord your God in vain, for the Lord will not hold him guiltless who takes His name in vain;” thus, words are far more than simply words or an “American cultural thing”).
It is clearly defined as a sin to swear (curse, cuss, etc.). The Bible makes this abundantly clear. Ephesians 4:29 tells us, "Do not let any unwholesome talk come out of your mouths, but only what is helpful for building others up according to their needs, that it may benefit those who listen." First Peter 3:10 declares, "For, whoever would love life and see good days must keep his tongue from evil and his lips from deceitful speech." James 3:9-12 summarizes the issue: "With the tongue we praise our Lord and Father, and with it we curse men, who have been made in God's likeness. Out of the same mouth come praise and cursing. My brothers, this should not be. Can both fresh water and salt water flow from the same spring? My brothers, can a fig tree bear olives, or a grapevine bear figs? Neither can a salt spring produce fresh water."
James makes it clear that the lives of Christians - the "brothers" - should not be characterized by evil speech. By making the analogy of both salt water and fresh water coming from the same spring (which is uncharacteristic of springs), he makes the point that it is uncharacteristic for a believer to have both praise and cursing come from his/her mouth. We cannot praise God while at the same time cursing our brothers.
Jesus explained that what comes out of our mouths is that which fills our hearts. Sooner or later, the evil in the heart comes out through the mouth in curses and swearing. But when our hearts are filled with the goodness of God, praise for Him and love for others will pour forth. Our speech will always indicate what is in our hearts. "The good man brings good things out of the good stored up in his heart, and the evil man brings evil things out of the evil stored up in his heart. For out of the overflow of his heart his mouth speaks" (Luke 6:45).
Why is it a sin to cuss / swear / curse? Sin is a condition of the heart, the mind, and "the inner man" (Romans 7:22), which is manifested in our thoughts, actions and words. When we swear and curse, we are giving evidence of the polluting sin in our hearts that must be confessed and repented of. When we put our faith in Christ, we receive a new nature from God (2 Corinthians 5:17), our hearts are transformed, and our speech reflects the new nature God has created within us (Romans 12:1–2).

I felt that way at one time, but a closer look reveals this is dead on about the prosperity preachers.

I'm not interested in beating a dead horse issue that's been debated a billion times since the internet began. I'll just say that I think you're reading your culture into your Scripture. All those verses are about the intent of hearts as expressed in speech, not about how certain sounds the human mouth makes are evil. American "Christianity" gets it reversed because it loves a good law and some good judgin'. But whatever. You say toematoe, I say tahmahto. Moving on....

This is something you might find interesting. It’s a bit lengthy but it’s a pastor and his son discussing the band Death

Megadeth's albums from Youthanasia on up probably qualify as well.

"Never Walk Alone" is as Christian as most of Stryper's catalog.

I don't know if any have specifically Christian lyrics, though to my knowledge their lyrics are all clean and "Christian friendly."

Looking for Christian friendly albums, not necessarily Christian lyrics per se.

Meshiaak doesn’t meet the criteria.
