1. Jesus Christ is God incarnate. Jesus made it all. "Jesus paid it all; all to Him I owe."
2. The wall between musician and listener (artist and art appreciator) should be knocked down. The artist often contributes to the building of the wall through his/her love of money, apathy, moral compartmentalism, and pride. The art appreciator often contributes to the maintenance of the wall through his/her deification of a fellow sinner.
This is not a justification in any way for copyright violations, which is forbidden in the Eighth Commandment: "Thou shalt not steal."
3. Art for the sake of art is nothing more than a noisy gong or a clanging cymbal (I Corinthians chapter 13.) Christians have a higher calling.
4. The life of the Christian artist should, like any other believer's, center around Christ. This should be evident in his/her non-art activities as well as in his/her art.
