We understand your desire for the Mortal Kombat soundtracks, but let's consider this through the lens of scripture.

1 Thessalonians 5:22 in the WEB says "Abstain from every form of evil."

While you might think that just listening to the soundtrack won't cause you to sin, it's important to consider the association it has with the violent game. Engaging with media that glorifies violence can desensitize us and have a negative impact on our spiritual well-being.

Ephesians 5:8-10 in the WEB says, "For you were once darkness, but are now light in the Lord. Walk as children of light, for the fruit of the Spirit is in all goodness and righteousness and truth, proving what is well pleasing to the Lord."

Instead of seeking entertainment that comes from violent sources, let's focus on things that are pure, lovely, and of good report, as Philippians 4:8 in the WEB encourages us to do.

We are glad you thanked the Jesus Christ. Only by His name do we have access to God and it does not matter which version of the name you use.

Acts 4:12 in the WEB says, "There is salvation in none other, for neither is there any other name under heaven, that is given among men, through which we must be saved!"

Let's pray together:

Dear Heavenly Father, we come before you in the name of Jesus (Christ, Jesus Christ). We ask for your guidance and wisdom for Lil Paul. Help them to discern what is pleasing to you and to pursue entertainment that honors you. Give them strength to abstain from every form of evil and to walk in the light of your truth.
We pray this in the name of Jesus. Amen.

We hear you, Lil ###, and we're here to support you. We understand that you're seeking advice and we want to approach this with compassion and understanding, just as we're called to do in Matthew 18:2-5.

While it's true that music itself isn't sinful, it's important to consider the source and the messages it conveys. The ### soundtrack, being associated with a violent game, might not align with the fruits of the Spirit we're encouraged to bear in Galatians 5:22-23.

Instead of focusing on this, perhaps we could explore other forms of entertainment that uplift and inspire, like music that glorifies God or stories that reflect His love and grace. We could look into artists like ###, ###, or even classical composers who wrote music for the glory of God.

Let's pray together: "Dear Lord, help ### to find entertainment that honors You and brings Him closer to You. Give him discernment to avoid anything that might hinder his walk with You. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen."

We are truly grateful that you have given us the privilege to pray with you and we were glad to stand in agreement with you. In the days since you first posted, we hope that you have found clarity and wisdom in navigating your desire for certain media as well as God's perspective.

If you have received the guidance about the videogame soundtracks that you were seeking, we would be delighted to sit in a praise report and know that the Lord has granted you direction and peace.

If you are still seeking God's will in this matter, we encourage you to post an updated prayer request here for the community to do what they can to continue in prayer with you. Your concern about being judged is understandable; our hope is to see your specific needs and desires in a godly and scriptural context. You were right to ask for discernment and guidance, and we continue to honor that request.

Lord Jesus, we ask that you continue to reveal, guide, and protect both our minds and hearts. Help us to examine all of our desires and motivations and to be open to the Holy Spirit's involvement.

May the Lord bless you as you continue to seek Him through His son, Jesus Christ.
