That's a wonderful testimony atonement. :)
However you did not 'use' satanism to preach the gospel, but your deliverance out of it. The Lord's salvation can make a sinner into a child of God, but He could never use their sin per se for His purpose except as a kind of anti-testimony.
So how should I 'prove' that rock is worldly? The Bible never speaks of rock music. But are you telling me that bands like say...My Chemical Romance are not worldly? They epitomize the world.
For that matter, prove to me from the Word that 'God can use everything'. In fact the Bible shows very clearly that not every form of Christian service or worship will be accepted by God in the day of judgment:
Quote:
Matthew 7:21**Not every one who says to Me, Lord, Lord, will enter into the kingdom of the heavens, but he who does the will of My Father who is in the heavens.
7:22**Many will say to Me in that day, Lord, Lord, was it not in Your name that we prophesied, and in Your name cast out demons, and in Your name did many works of power?
7:23**And then I will declare to them: I never knew you. Depart from Me, you workers of lawlessness.

Quote:
1 Cor 3:13**The work of each will become manifest; for the day will declare it, because it is revealed by fire, and the fire itself will prove each one's work, of what sort it is.
3:14**If anyone's work which he has built upon the foundation remains, he will receive a reward;
3:15**If anyone's work is consumed, he will suffer loss, but he himself will be saved, yet so as through fire.

Quote:
Matthew 7:13**Enter in through the narrow gate, for wide is the gate and broad is the way that leads to destruction, and many are those who enter through it.
7:14**Because narrow is the gate and constricted is the way that leads to life, and few are those who find it.

So do you imagine that you can save people from the world by offering them a virtually indistinguishable alternative? We are commanded that we should not be fashioned according to this age, yet to all appearances some Christian music is identical to its worldly counterpart apart from its lyrics (which are often obscured by the music anyway).
Quote:
all the books of the bible tell about God, or Christ
except: song of solomon. does this mean it's wrong?
It's a purely a love story. Singing about human love.

Song of Songs is absolutely about Christ. I would encourage you to get hold of Watchman Nee's Song of Songs, or Madame Guyon's, or Union and Communion (can't remember the name of the author sorry). They open up the spiritual riches in that book :). I would say it's among my favorite books of the Bible in terms of the way it opens up our relationship with Christ.
