This exactly. In that same album, they discuss how religion has affected family, but also how important it can be for finding purpose and value in life. The songs Jenny and God Went North are particularly noteworthy and are two of my favorite songs ever. They aren’t Christians, but I think they do respect authentic Christians, and are just frustrated with the politicization and over-monetization of all religion and the use of religion as an excuse to abuse and manipulate others.

To think you know who goes to heaven Is just one big misconception Like god hates fags and communism Create fear to feed the system... feed the system This is the problem. They only know the Jesus that CNN tells them. They put the most wretched vile examples of Christians on TV for unbelievers to hate. Lose our hearts and breed division Oh my god why can't we wake up... wake up 34 “Do not think that I have come to bring peace to the earth. I have not come to bring peace, but a sword. 35 For I have come to set a man against his father, and a daughter against her mother, and a daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law. 36 And a person's enemies will be those of his own household.

I agree with you Pringles…the singer (Johnny Hawkins) is a Christian who sees the world as it’s becoming…a dark and twisted place where God is being used in so many sac religious ways that this song is a warning to wake up and not listen to the political and bad religious leaders…and think more for ourselves on who we’re going to listen to instead of being machines…I heard Johnny talk about this song live at a festival last weekend and he said “this song is a warning. that we need to find the light in ourselves and be careful who we listen to so we don’t become machines.”

The quote by the band about the song was not hypocritical as you may think. They never intended it to be taken as "we are right you are wrong" they simply wanted to encourage people to think freely and decide for themselves how to live. Not to let leaders, be they religious or political, decide who you are and what you will become. The quote is showing that only you yourself know your truth, not others and they should not decide for you. It's a statement on the philosophy of Individualism. The song itself is more about people abusing religion for their own personal gain, Johnny, the lead singer and writer of the songs, grew up in a strict religious household and his mother died when he was still young and was very religious. They made a song thats for more supportive called God Went North, it is about how his mother who died of cancer and him comforting her and praying for God to end her suffering, thats right he prays. He's not a firm believer but even he prayed in that moment.

Pastor Rob, I would really appreciate clarification. I have always been confused about the finding the truth within argument. I think everyone interprets the bible from their own way and I think that is why there are many variations of religion. On a societal scale I think that our interpretation of politics and ethics aligns our personal views of the world. No 2 Christians think exactly alike because God crested them in his separate image. Their interpretation must be found within themselves using the senses that God has provided them with rather than living life a certain way because they are told to do so based on another person's perspective/interpretation. I really respect your perspective and I enjoy hearing your talking points. You have opened my mind to a lot of things on this channel and I really appreciate that. On an unrelated note Dayseeker - Hollow Shell is a very pro Christian song that I think you will love.

I think your first interpretation is right. The whole "They've got your Christ on copyright," would indicate an idea that "our Christ (interpretation) is the only correct one, we have the copyright." Then think of all the Olsteens of the world and you get to where they seem to be coming from. "They're selling Heaven tonight," seems to back up that angle, imo.

Listening to you read Jonny’s quote and hearing you say “he’s against people claiming they have the truth, while claiming he has the truth”. While this a totally understandable interpretation, and I genuinely see where you’re coming from… he never once claims he has the truth. This is usually where the disconnect lies between Christians and non-Christians! It’s mind-boggling to me when I hear friends or family say that I pretend I know the truth (my beliefs are nearly the same as his), while speaking against theirs. The thing is…I’m not. Its just that I’m secure in my not knowing. A lot of us non-Christians (not all, of course) never pretend we have a single clue what the answers are. We simply know right from wrong. In my experience, many Christians (not all) get upset and defensive when you state your beliefs- and it’s not because we’re questioning theirs we’re just speaking confidently about our own- because it makes them think about things that contradict their religion and, if truly considered in the absence of defensiveness and ego, would flip their world on its axis. Now on a more personal note, most of my experiences with Christians (having grown up as one in a Baptist church) have been made up of nothing but double standards, judgment, and people looking outwards rather than within. Of course, not all Christians!

The lead singer Jonny Hawkins grew up in a fundamentalist Christian household and left the faith. But he also seems to be anti-leftist which is not a combo you see too often. He is one of the few modern rockstars who is openly anti our current government. Anyway, that’s just some background. DEFINITELY you should check out “God Went North.” It’s about him being bedside at his dying mother’s deathbed, and watching her transition into the afterlife, and holding onto her faith as she does it, even though he doesn’t believe anymore. It’s a heart-breaking song, but amazing.

I’m a Christian, but this is one of my favorite bands. Jonny has a major problem with government(government overreach) and religion. His mom was a devout Christian and he feels like God abandoned her to suffer and die with cancer(see their song“God went North”) Jonny also went to healing revivals with her and he got a bad taste in his mouth from whoever the evangelist was. Plus, his mom gave a money to this evangelist. He believed it was all a big scam.

You read into it wrong. What the lead singer was saying when he said the truth is within yourself, he’s not telling people to listen to what he has to say, he’s telling people not to take the word of what their government tells them and trust in themselves and be confident with themselves that everyone’s truth IS the truth. Whatever YOU believe in as an individual, no matter who you are, is the truth because we all have the right to think for ourselves.

Hi guys, first off, I do understand why you may see this as primarily a condemnation of faith from yet another "edgy rock band," but wanted to give you some additional information. I use to be friendly with the guys, since my work in the music industry put me in their home area of San Antonio a lot, and I had a chance to actually discuss faith with Jonny at one point. The guys aren't really anti religion, so much as they are anti abuse of religion. Because there are unfortunately still some corrupt churches and preachers (and politicians) who take advantage of their congregation/ followers for the sake of attaching their own desires to a stronger cause, you wind up with plenty of people being led astray by a commercialized view of religion. This is largely why so many people now claim to dislike Christians, when in reality, they hate the hypocrisy of those who claim to be Christian, yet show opposite behavior, all the while acting like they have a monopolyon morals (or Copyright on Christ). At times you can see a lot of love and faith on display in NM's work, such as with "God Went North," a heartbreaking love letter about Jonny's mother, asking God to take her home and end her suffering. Also, in their cover of Paco Estrada's "Vesica Pisces," which is one of the most beautiful expressions of faith I've ever heard from a band, Mainstream or otherwise. I can't speak for the mindset of the guys today in 2022, but that's just my experience with them previously.

Fun song. Obviously it starts sarcastically, but it keeps up with these commands like "create fear to feed the system", which it doesn't really make obviously clear, so I can't tell whose voice they're actually in. Is it intentionally confusing? To answer the main question, this kind of thing is why we can't wake up. Because this song is exactly like its bridge says: tuned into two stations simultaneously, trying to frantically convince itself it's not radio controlled. Though in my experience, this sort of interference usually means they must be going somewhere far away. Which station got louder with these guys, I wonder? Also, would they be okay not getting paid for their song, if they are so against copyright?

Lyrics read like a fundamental misunderstanding of Christianity that is fair to the extent that you have only been exposed to certain Christians or certain ideals of what Christians believe. God's invitation is to all to repent and turn to him. Christians often expect the unregenerate to behave according to what the regenerated are called to through sanctification. That being said, the idea that we "know who goes to heaven" is a misconception is completely wrong. We are told in scripture that we will know who is a brother in Christ by their "fruits". Fruits are only made possible because you are connected to the vine. We are also told quite succinctly that a brother cannot live in sin, not that they cannot sin, but they cannot continue long in sin, they will feel guilt and seek repentance. If a person is in sin, but feels no shame or need for repentance, they are probably not regenerated. This is just what scripture says see Ephesians 5. But, remember, this is what Christians are called to, not those that have not accepted Christ.

He is not claiming a monopoly on truth, saying the truth is within you means find your own truth and don’t listen to what others tells you is the truth.

Again, the statement "find your own truth" is a truth claim. It's saying that absolutes are false and relative truth is true. It's self defeating because it's an absolute statement and placing a "monopoly" on a specific truth, ie Relativism.

From the way my brother explained it to me, Nothing More started as a church band in the church that they all grew up in. At some point church leadership was ousted for being absurdly corrupt, and while their faith wasn’t necessarily diminished, organized religion left a bad taste in their mouths. Obviously, the line “god hates fags and communism,” is a direct bash on WBC, and a more wide bash on conservatives that misuse their religion for their political beliefs. I don’t know anyone from Nothing More personally, but my brothers who have used a lot of the same studios, producers, and agents, plus playing with Nothing More a plethora of times, make the band out to be entirely religious, yet vehemently anti organized religion. Idk I’ve never met anyone in the band. I ran into the bassist at top golf once (but didn’t want to bother him), and saw the band open for The Toadies at a free show during Fiesta. I think it was at NIOSA lol

Love Nothing More! Music and vocals are always on point! And their message is always well thought out. I like that they don't feel that they need to push a lot of vulgarity to get their thoughts across!
