Rev. Isaac Owusu Bempah<\/strong><\/p>\n

Rev. Isaac Owusu Bempah has said no scripture in the Bible categorically bans Christians from listening to secular music.<\/p>\n

According to the General Overseer of the Glorious Word Power Ministries International, the Bible does not condemn secular music.<\/p>\n

The Bible, he said, rather admonish Christians not to walk among those who do not believe in God\u2019s word.<\/p>\n

In an interview on Peace FM<\/em><\/strong>\u2019s Entertainment Review, he indicated, \u201cThe truth is, when one takes the Bible, he or she will not find a verse which disregards the listening of secular music, but what the Bible preaches on is not to walk or be involved with those who do not believe in the word of God. To be honest with you, I haven\u2019t seen or read any scripture which says Christians should not listen to secular songs.\u201d<\/p>\n

He added he listens to secular songs, but he likes motivational ones.<\/p>\n

\u201cI am telling you the fact. I like listening to some of Sarkodie\u2019s songs that I play in my car while driving and not talking about Nana Kwame Ampadu, Adofo, Alhaji K. Frimpong\u2019s songs and the others which has wisdom in it. I will listen to it if there\u2019s wisdom in Bob Marley and Lucky Dube\u2019s songs. I listen to these songs because of the wisdom I derive from them thus so far as the secular songs speak wisdom, I\u2019ll listen to them,\u201d he disclosed.<\/p>\n
