There’s also Keith and Krystin Getty, Matt Boswell and Matt Papa, Andrew Peterson, and Shane and Shane. All these artists write modern hymns that are rich and deep in solid theology.
There are many, many groups singing true words of the Bible. This exclusive attitude is part of the pride and hardness of heart that is hurting the Body of Christ. I'm so tired of this attitude. It came into my church and turned everyone, especially the young people, into critics and holier-than-thou self-proclaimed overseers of truth. There is nothing uglier, though it looks good at first, and it destroyed my church.
@@DunderMifflin_ThisisPam , I can understand Jay Lintz's sentiment....it's true that the majority of "Christian" artists and bands....get this...don't even believe in God. It's not a holier than thou attitude, it's just plain fact. There are interviews of some "Christian" artists where they admit they're not really Christ followers at all. I'm sorry if division happened in your church. You are right that the body of Christ needs to stick together, but it bears emphasising, the actual, true body of Christ needs to stick together. We need to parse out the hirelings and wolves in sheep's clothing, which scripture warns us will become so prevalent in the end times we are living in (and we are), that "if it were possible, even the very elect would be deceived". When the disciples came to Jesus asking what are the signs of the end, Jesus said, and this is interesting....beware of false Christs (false prophets, false teachers, false religionists....false worship). Groups like Bethel and Hillsong are extremely popular in Christian cultures, but much of their lyrics romanticise Christ. The popular Hillsong song, "oceans"....not biblical. Another popular song emotes "heaven meets earth like an unforeseen kiss". Compare that to biblically rich lyrics such as those by CityAlight. Again, this is not to vaunt oneself, but speaking truth about how hard it is to find truly biblical, God-honouring, God-worshiping artists as the world, and the "church", embraces feel good emotionalism in "worship", rather than strong biblical lyrics.
Liz 4GodoftheBible You bet. I would sin, get paranoid, and cry out to God hoping He doesn’t forsake me. But reformed theology helps me to realize that if sin removes me from God’s Hand, sin is more powerful than God. At the same time, the Holy Spirit’s conviction and other people helps me to desire holiness.
Aaron: I am very happy for you but allow me a word of caution. All theological systems are man made systems and therefore are flawed at some point. Every system has its strengths and weaknesses. No theological system is perfect. The Bible does not waste one word in encouraging us to jump into a theological camp (which we are so prone to do). Keep Jesus, not your theological camp, the main thing. Blessings to you brother!!
As long as you're right on Salvation, I dont worry about the rest of your Theology. Most "Christian" churches however are wrong on Salvation. It is by Grace through faith plus or minus nothing!
Could not have said it better myself. We shouldn't be boastful by thinking the we were smart enough to accept God or that we did something to earn it but we should be proud in knowing that we belong to a gracious and loving God
I discovered CityAlight this year as I was looking for a band with 💯 theological lyrics and no enthusiasm or flashing lights but simple chords and gospel centered lyrics. God bless you CityAlight
My favorite gospel band. All their songs are spirit filled and uplifting. I and my family at least listen to one or two Cityalight songs during our bedtime prayers
I love listening to these beautiful musicians.There is hope for our world when young Christians are writing and singing such biblical songs.You give so much pleasure to others.Thankyou all so much.
I can feel the anointing and power in the lyrics that have sound Biblical doctrine in them. I have been crying and sobbing all throughout the time I have been listening to these songs. I wish I had discovered this Christian band group long before because I have been listening to some rough and noisy so called Christian gospel songs. CityAlight will be my favourite inspiration Christian band group. Please do not change the style of the music but keep it the way it is now. Love you all in the Lord.
He 'was traded for this sinner' What a powerful statement! The Light and Glory of theTruth of Scripture set to music and sung with sincerity! Truly a winner with me! May all these young people's lives be blessed continually in the Grace of our Lord Jesus Christ!
The first and foremost reason why I love "city alight" is because of the rich theology thats in the song. I'm so glad I dont have to direct every line in these songs to make sure the theology is right. But with other "Christian" bands or groups, I need to be extra careful and it kind of draining having to do that, thank you Lord, that you led me to this group. Amazing songs, all the time
Truly enjoy listening to these wonderful music by CityAlight! These songs are biblically sound and Christ-centred that points to the gospel of Jesus and the Person of God :)
A most beautiful and theologically sound hymn. A favourite of mine that even I can play by ear. God bless you in continuing your ministry and keep you from falling as too many in the spotlight have done.
Teología pura, no saben cuánto agradezco a Dios por un ministerio como el suyo, me ayudaron a reconectar con Dios a través de la verdad, soy un pecador, pero tengo perdón y esperanza en Jesús. Espero algún día poder alabar a Dios de esa manera y con una excelente musicalización como la suya. Saludos y bendiciones desde México 🇲🇽.
There is not a day that I am not amazed at God's grace to me. I marvel why Christ ever loved me and just praise him for his unbelievable love and grace.
Oh dear, how does this not move one to glorify the Lord Jesus for our redemption so freely given to us by his precious GRACE!!!!!!!!!! Thank you once again cityalight!!!
Your grace that leads this sinner home from Death to Life forever😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭 my tear never stop untill the end of the day, hallelujah God be the glory Æmen.
Such truth! No on can boast save in Christ and His finished work upon the cross. Thank you, Lord, for Your matchless love. You are mine and I’m forever Yours.
@@rebeccagable9629 I used to be a sex addict for over 8 yrs until this year I got into a road accident where I almost died then I pleaded with the Lord that if he'd give me another chance I was going to be a Gospel minister, I sustained some head injuries and broken my neck but after a few months I recovered n gave my life to Christ n joined a Reformed church I play CityAlight music everyday n I'm now a Gospel minister. God bless this band 💯❤️🙏🏾
We sing this in St Peters, Dundee, Scotland. And several others of your songs....they are so suitable for congregational worship...love them and it was good to visit your church whilst I was in Sydney.
Lukeydook I’d really like to find the song you refer to - I couldn’t locate the podcast sadly, so if you would message me the name of the song I would really appreciate it! Thanks, Phil Martin
What powerful and precious truth there is in this song. How I pray the Lord uses this to touch the hearts of many who still need to meet Jesus for themselves.
You guys have been my inspiration. All your songs have always met my needs at different times. I'm so proud of you all. Keep the fire burning for the LORD!
Good song. Solid melody, solid lyrically and hymn styled, good 😊 I am not going to sour grape others songs or bands on this thread. They are what they are for those that need them.
I have been so inspired by your songs and longed to join with a congregation to sing them. As a visitor from Canada’s west coast to St. Peter’s Free Church in Dundee, what a surprise, delight and joy to join in the singing of “ Grace”.
God predestined me to salvation based on foreknowledge that I would love him. Romans 8.28 sais so. Praise God that he never twisted my arm to accept christ. Otherwise regeneration would of be based on compulsion. Everyone has the ability to accept or reject Christ. Sadly many people reject him like in the case of John 3.19
Your grace that leads this sinner home From death to life forever And sings the song of righteousness By blood and not by merit Your grace that reaches far and wide To every tribe and nation Has called my heart to enter in The joy of Your salvation By grace I am redeemed By grace I am restored And now I freely walk Into the arms of Christ my Lord Your grace that I cannot explain Not by my earthly wisdom The prince of life, without a stain Was traded for this sinner Let praise rise up and overflow My song resound forever For grace will see me welcomed home To walk beside my Saviour
Finally a true Christian band speaking the words of The Bible. Thank you so very much
You should check Sovereign Grace Music's songs, it's a different genre but very Biblical too

I just discovered these guys. I've probably listened to this 20 times... just tonight.
Ditto!
Me toooo 😭😭😭
Same :)
Aw haha!. Gotta love CityAlight ❤️
Same. One of my favorite band so far
Hearing the gospel never gets old!
hhhhmmmm!!! you will
Going from fundamental baptist to reformed theology within a few days, and then hearing this just made me break down.
You will come to know there is emotion in reformed theology, that's what I'm learning anyway. Its pretty shattering, isn't it? In a good way...

though we are dead dogs- through the salvation of Jesus Christ- we eat the king's table.
It's all of grace. There's nothing I can do to earn my salvation.
Could not have said it better myself. We shouldn't be boastful by thinking the we were smart enough to accept God or that we did something to earn it but we should be proud in knowing that we belong to a gracious and loving God
It is not by works of righteousness but by His grace alone.
By grace ye have been saved
No dilution..pure unadulterated Grace, our only way out of the trappings of this sinful world.Grace..
Only by Grace
I discovered CityAlight this year as I was looking for a band with 💯 theological lyrics and no enthusiasm or flashing lights but simple chords and gospel centered lyrics. God bless you CityAlight
AMEN!!
Same here, tired of the loud noise and theatrics.
I am into cityaligh in only two days, and man I am moved by their contemporary music

By grace I am redeemed

And now I freely walk into the arms of Christ my Lord!
Have been dismayed by the lack of genuine but modern hymns. My joy has been restored. Thank you.

Rich doctrine in this piece. I can’t have enough of the assurances in each line of the lyrics. God bless you guys! Lots of love ❤❤❤
Finally a “song on the wall” that has some melody!
So beautiful, peaceful, and inspirational! It just made me feel to worship my God.

Thanks for these christian songs brothers and sisters in cityalight♥️💕
I like your voice...... God bless you all
Love your songs... God centred lyrics.. God bless you all
Your grace that leads this sinner home
From death to life forever
And sings the song of righteousness
By blood and not by merit
Your grace that reaches far and wide
To every tribe and nation
Has called my heart to enter in
The joy of Your salvation
By grace I am redeemed
By grace I am restored
And now I freely walk
Into the arms of Christ my Lord
Your grace that I cannot explain
Not by my earthly wisdom
The prince of life, without a stain
Was traded for this sinner
Let praise rise up and overflow
My song resound forever
For grace will see me welcomed home
To walk beside my Saviour
Blessed beyond words! Thank you lord.
I can't get enough of City Alight!!! 😍😍😍
