Matthew 4:3, Why Rock n Roll is Wrong

February 9, 2015

And when the tempter came to him, he said, If thou be the Son of God, command that these stones be made bread.

//Most of you think the devil first tempted us with Rock n Roll in the twentieth century. You’d be wrong. The old fella first tried to free the soul with his rock and roll in about the year 30 A.D., but Jesus was having none of it. When Satan suggested Jesus turn a rock into a roll, Jesus said nope, I’m gonna need a whole lot more than that.

But [Jesus] answered and said, It is written, Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of God. –Matthew 4:4

So Satan took Jesus up to the top of a high mountain and showed him all the world. Okay, you can have it all, he says, but still Jesus turned him down.

What was the poor devil to do? No wonder he gave up on Rock n Roll for another 2,000 years.
