i like playing music and learning how to maybe join church to play music but some people made me have panic attacks and fear of something maybe real or not so am not sure is this in any bibles or scriptures some were.
here a video of it.
The idea of selling one's soul or doing a deal with the devil goes back a lot further than Robert Johnson. Perhaps the most famous legend is the one of
Faust.
An earlier musical example is Niccolo Paganini (1782-1840) who had a successful career as the outstanding violinist of his generation. It's unclear to me whether he did such a thing or whether for example others generated rumours to explain his, for the time, extraordinary abilities but, according to Wikipedia, the Roman Catholic church took it seriously enough to deny him a Christian burial for some time.
I'd think that whether there may be any gain by attempting to take such an action is debatable but the certainty is that even if you did manage to gain 100 years of bliss and success in every way, you will die at some point and have to face the consequences.
I see Dumpsters's argument. Personally, I would speculate that someone who has got them self so wrapped up with the devil and is content with what they think there are gaining is not likely to turn round and one day look for salvation?
As for temptations and Silk's question (sort of) why would anyone anyone choose the blues? I think it depends on where a person's interests lie. With regard to music, I could for example wish to be the greatest Irish style tenor banjo player that ever was. Hardly something that many people are interested in but, hey, I could still be the top of my own tree... I'd guess someone else may want to be renowned in academic circles, another having the greatest collection of art, etc.
The problem is that we can allow anything to take over to the point where we might be willing to consider doing something very wrong to satisfy our own lusts and egos. So patricia2626, I don't believe there are special dangers in music. There are however dangers in letting anything grow greater than God.
