I do believe that when someone answers the call of Christ, he makes them a new creation.
I saw this clip today and it made me feel something inside along the lines of “THAT’S GOD IN ACTION!!!” when I saw it.
I’ve known that Blackie Lawless (from the band W.A.S.P.) had an encounter with Christ…but to see this in action fired me up. For those uninformed, W.A.S.P. were considered a highly occultic band. One that I saw mentioned everytime someone was doing an anti-rock sermon back in the 80′s. God has changed the heart of Blackie Lawless. He is my brother in Christ. He has had what the world has to offer and determined that God’s ways were better.

The hard rock scene can be pretty dark. When people come to see Guardian, they know in advance we are Christians. We speak freely about our faith. With W.A.S.P. it’s somewhat different; To me, this is kinda’ like “Tebowing” times 10. I hope this encourages you as much as it does me.
God wins!

Edited to add: The audio after the prayer is pretty rough. Sounds like noise cause it’s on a cell phone. The verbal intro was what I wanted seen here.
