Satan, Father of Isis

This morning as I was reading through the new Voice of the Martyrs magazine, I noticed this story. Really impacted me as to how truly evil these people are. I can see satan's fingerprints written all over it. What I am seeing here would go nicely with a Slayer soundtrack. Truly, these thoughts and actions are coming from their real father, Satan.

Revelation - This is written to the church.

If you name the name of Christ, then pay attention to these words. These verses let you peek in and see the mind and heart of God with regard to his church and holiness. 

Revelation 3
3And unto the angel of the church in Sardis write; These things saith he that hath the seven Spirits of God, and the seven stars; I know thy works, that thou hast a name that thou livest, and art dead. 2 Be watchful, and strengthen the things which remain, that are ready to die:  for I have not found thy works perfect before God. 3 Remember therefore how thou hast received and heard, and hold fast, and repent. If therefore thou shalt not watch, I will come on thee as a thief, and thou shalt not know what hour I will come upon thee. 4 Thou hast a few names even in Sardis which have not defiled their garments; and they shall walk with me in white:  for they are worthy. 5 He that overcometh, the same shall be clothed in white raiment; and I will not blot out his name out of the book of life, but I will confess his name before my father, and before his angels. 6 He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches.

Quiet Waters - Comfort

Ok, so I have already written about this album and artist, but I wanted to call more attention to this side project, by former Separatist member Sam Dishington, called Quiet Waters. The EP is titled Comfort and if you donate, the proceeds go directly to the A21 Campaign.

What makes this project really intriguing is that Sam is a big-time metal guy and this is a straight up Alternative Rock album. So you have some serious skill behind the album. It's like toned down energy that's explosive. I will admit... When I first heard the album, I thought it was ok, but the more I have played it, the more I realize how refreshing it is, in a scene that is too predictable.

One of my favorite decades in music is the 90's, and the sound he has captured on this one, incorporates a lot of those elements. But beyond the sound, it is total one on one worship to Almighty God. I read somewhere that Sam said that he got sort of complacent singing other peoples worship music. He wanted to do something on a personal level between him and God. And let me tell you, it is powerful. Sometimes, I get seriously taken aback by the raw emotion on this record.

I just had to share it again....

Promise Land - Harmony In Ruins

I came across this album by Promise Land a while back and finally just got around to listening to it. It's really decent if you're into Theocracy-type bands. The genre is basically symphonic metal that reminds me of a movie score at times. My favorite song on it is The Piper Illusion. Check em out.

Hello Industry - Matter

Where have I been? I had no idea that Hello Industry had released another album. If you're not familiar with them, definitely check them out.  I sort of think of them as a classy, intellectual band with a vibrantly, melancholy vibe. This might be the best band you've never heard of and their albums just keep getting better and better. Wow, I can't believe I just stumbled on this tonight. This record is great!

War Of Ages - Chaos Theory

Wow, Facedown just left a monster at my doorstep. War Of Ages' Chaos Theory is a super gnarly new track that will leave you feeling very satisfied. Watching these guys evolve over the years and explode into this sound is nice. They have literally gotten so much better at writing, exploring new avenues in music and at their instruments. Really digging this.
