I see where you're coming from, Kody, and it's a good point. They say they aren't Christians...their lifestyles definitely say it as well. But all that aside, lyrics are always open to interpretation and theirs have been known to have spiritual meaning in them whether or not that was the intent. I guess it just proves we should be praying for them that much more if they're obviously searching that much.

ok thats cool.... i dont got a problem with the whole creed thing just more a question i guess that has been answered.... and to be honest i really like most of their music and like the fact that their songs are based on "spiritual" things cause when they wrote them they did say they were christians so the songs may have christian topic written all over them i dont know but its cool cause like i said im a big creed fan and so im all about praying for them cause right now they need it and i plan on doing more stuff in here just to worn u im comming.... just joking it should be good if i come back.... welp later

creed

i know the creed thing has been beaten into the ground, but the tab for "what's this life for" has our God's name being used in vain. whether or not that's how it was meant, i don't know, but it should not be on a christian website.

i dont think it was ment that way, to me that song has a strong spiritaul meaning to it, but weather or not they intended it to be that way or not is another story that I cant answer

creed

i've heard the singer say that he didn't mean it that way, but the point is that most people take it that way, and this being a christian website, it probably should not be here.

I took a look at the song, and I have to agree. It's been deleted now.

IHL,
Mickey

no creeds lyrics are not christian..they are what i would call spritually insprired...the pead singer scott stapp had to read the bible every night and copy it..so a lot of his lyrics are , yes inspired by the word of God. but not really direct...

Hey guitar-rocks-

I never knew that about Drowning Pool, that is really interesting...good band, too.

I read that Stapp was raised in a Christian home, as you all say, but he rebelled against his faith after he left home. I think that part of him wants to accept the Bible, partly because he was raised as a Christian, but I also think he wants to justify some of the other things he does and writes about in his songs.

One of his songs, although I cannot remember which, reflects a deistic belief. It goes something like, "We are hollow, for our maker has gone away..." Of course, it could mean something like, creation has yet to be redeemed, and until that time, we will not be made whole.

Hey, have any of you heard the new Creed single? It's called "My Sacrifice", and to me it seems like it's about Stapp coming back to God. I'll post my transcription of the lyrics as soon as I can. But it sounds really interesting spiritually. And it's a great song musically too.
