I love the Bodom style ending and this song gives me faith to stand ground and fight the evil things I face everyday from porngraphy to cussing STAND don't let Satan intiminate you and don't let the door open for him FIGHT back with the Bible or saying "In Jesus' Name I rubuke you devil you don't belong here LEAVE" or whatever you feel inside but just stay with Jah and keep rawkin on!!!
As a Norse Pagan- These were the Christians we had an alliance with. They will always have a seat in Valhalla. And we'd be honored to visit them in their Heaven.
Man, every Christian metal band I love to listen to.. I see arguing in the comments! Every single one of them! Those being mean to believers on a Christian Metal youtube video doesn't make much sense! If you don't want to hear about how Jesus saves then go somewhere else! And stop hating! No sense in it. anyways... Jesus rules! God rules! and so does this band!
This band does rule. But if Jesus saves how come so many people are dying when he and "God" can do something about that? Or how about the starving people al around the world? Or how about the people suffering under a ruthless dictator? If "God" and Jesus saved they wouldn't let those things happen. And don't say the typical Christian crap like "Its part of his plan" Or "God has a reason for everything". I'll bet I have helped more people than most Christians. And I'm Athiest. What does that tell you? Don't spout nonsense about a mythical deity and how he's the best thing and saves. He doesn't save as far as I've seen. Now I should say that Im not trampling on what you believe and I don't care that you believe in a mythical deity if you do that's awesome.
Condemned Reaper Hey man, I will try my best to answer your question. Allow to preface by saying that statements like "It's all part of God's plan," and "There is a reason for everything," are true under some circumstances, they are very bad explanations given by people who may not have the right answer. Also I am not trying to force you to believe what I believe, I just hope to answer your question. When God created the earth and paced man on the earth he gave them dominion over the earth. When Satan tempted Adam and Eve and they sinned, because they were choosing to follow what Satan had told them to do they had become submissive to him, which meant that the dominion that God gave to man ended up in Satan's hand. Satan then used that dominion to make a big mess of the world we live in. As long as man is submissive to Satan, Satan will have dominion over the earth. This is why you see wars, famine, genocide, plagues and other horrible things because man has given dominion over the earth to Satan. While God is all-powerful and at any time he could take back the dominion that he gave to man, he chooses not to because he wants to work through man to regain that dominion from Satan. He chooses to invite man to become one with him and be submissive to him, and to allow him to work through man to regain dominion back from Satan. In spite of all the messed up stuff we see God makes two promises. The first is that Satan will not go unpunished for all the devastation he has wrought on the earth. Revelation 20:10 says "And the devil who deceived them (man) was thrown in the lake of burning sulfur (hell)...tormented day and night for ever and ever." The second is that God promises a place where there is no more sorrow, pain, loss, or devastation of any kind. Revelation 21:4 says "He will wipe every tear from their eyes. There will be no more death or mourning or crying or pain, for the old order of things has passed away." Man messed up, giving Satan the ability to mess up the world even more. But God provides a way out of all that. Jesus came to earth so that man would be forgiven of their sin and become one with God, therefore allowing him to work through them to regain dominion over the earth back from Satan. Even if you don't believe in God, I hope that this gives a better understanding of why the world is messed up, based on what the Bible says. Thank you for asking.
AMEN! it's sad too cause a lot of people here someone rocking awesome Christian metal like this yet look at me like im the devil and miss the true message these believer's send us in our one and only, our lord, our Savior, Jesus Christ... these guys helped me so much for 27 months straight. thank-you so much to this band and most of all our creator
i'm a born-again christian from Georgia,u.s.a i love metal. I don't believe in christian music or satan music. music is music. only people are christian or not. their message might be christian or not. i believe a christian has a responsibility to share Christ with a dying world. But they should do it with the knowledge that they were unbelievers once and being a jerk doesn't convince anyone. The Holy Ghost does that.
Christian metal has some major juggernauts in the hardcore world. War of Ages, As I Lay Dying, Demon Hunter, Underoath, Haste The Day, etc. they all share the same message and same faith. we are all God's children whether you believe or not. its music like this that shows us just how much strength God can give us in our darkest hour.
I'm friends with a ton of religious people, and they're all great individuals. I went to 2 religious elementary schools and a religious high school, as an atheist. Both sides of my family are also religious. You know how many were as bad as you anti-theists seem to think? 3. I only knew 3 people who thought their religion made them superior. Being religious doesn't make someone a bad person. Thinking you're better than someone (or putting someone down) because of their beliefs does.
ALL TIME fav band, oh and OneThirdLife Said this: AND, if you DONT like War of Ages because it's a Christian band, why the hell are you even watching it and posting comments? I'm guessing you have no life.. :( Great took the words of of my mouth.
spreading the message thats what they are doing..so what you point of listening if you are not going to listen to thier message?? you just wasted your time
Very true and I agree with you, however, the bible says that the words we speak need to be pleasing to God... if youre around people that understand this then rock on, but it would show maturity to respect those that choose not to swear and refrain from it...thats all...judge not lest ye be judged yourself... let people do what they want and dont judge them, just make sure that YOU are right with God in your heart...
i'm actually more a fanatic atheist/satanist than a christian, but i can still enjoy this music, you don't have to like the lyrics, it's about the music
one of the top metal bands today, let alone christian metal. those who are insulted because of your beliefs, stand your fucking ground. stay the course. war of ages forever. \m/
Just because that's the way you see it doesn't mean that's how it is. Tim Lambesis has been screaming for over ten years and he did a show in Thailand or Singapore (don't remember, aint looking it up now) that covered all their cd's to date at once.
I met these guys the other day in Toronto. They are fucking amazing to chill with, and are explosive live! It was a real treat to see these guys open for Soilwork and Throwdown! \m/
these guys are friggin baller. I'll be seeing them for my fourth time in two weeks. they are for reall someone to look up to, they have a pretty crazy background. and producing music about god. thats friggin amazing!
valid point! its not really a matter of right and wrong tho. if it was then you would be right.its really just a matter of common courtesy and setting an example. using bad language around those that dont understand what you and me understand can cause confusion for some. It may not be a sin but it also dont kill us to not swear.the beauty of God is that he knows everyones hearts and will judge us accordingly.i swear sometimes too but it doesnt bring honor to God when we talk that way.thats all
We lie awake in our battlefields One chance to prove ourselves We will prevail Our will to live is powerful and our strength will never fade away To the weak who try to stop us You don't have the strength So save your breath Stand your ground when our hate has been concealed I'll carry it to the grave now that fate is revealed My eyes begin to close If we close our eyes and keep to ourselves in hope that everything will fade away We'll live in shame and wonder to ourselves if there will ever be a second chance With strength we'll never fall apart and in time we'll prove ourselves My heart can't be broken for I'll never live in shame With every breath and all that I am I'll make a stand Until the end stand your ground
I listen to a lot of christian music. Generally I do not like screamo/metal core music but I love these guys. All three of the albums are awesome. There is not a song I do not like. And yes I like the message.
This is America, everyone is entitled to their opinion, if he wants to believe that christians are compared to Nazi's, let him believe it. Not saying I agree with him. But aren't we as Cristians supposed to help him out instead of condemning his words?
Well, not to sound all righteous and holier than thou (cuz i swear sometimes too and am under the same rules as you) but he will deal with it...you can bet on that...and we will deal with the consequences... we need to try to bring honor to God in everything we do and say... not always possible, i know, but we need to try...thats all he asks..
im love Christian metal but am new to war of ages any good? i love demon hunter, as i lay dying, becoming the archetype, haste the day, august burns red, inhale exhale and killswitch engage(i know they dont claim to be Christian but their lyrics sure sound like it)
oh wow, i never implied he wasnt a christian, just today i said fuck. so i in no way think i am holier then anybody...alost everything i do isnt pleasing to God, but thats why i love Him. He forgives me of my enourmous flaws.
haikatamari, i don't get people like you... one of those people that doesn't like the music... but he watches the video just to start problems with the people that do like it. why do that? but the band is a christian band because it's what they're about. to these guys, and most musicians, it's not about the music but it's about what you believe in. these guys are playing for Jesus
@GuitariousMaximus Listen to All Consuming Fire, Through the flames, and Collapse. All of them are amazingly good. Somehow though, they find guitar players who have God playing through them
The world we have to seperate ourselves from is more on a political aspect. Such as actually hurting people by casting them out or beating them up out of pure hatred. The word FUCK is banned by society it's not actually a curse. There's a scripture in the book of Romans that says we are not to argue about our different beliefs (kosher vs. non kosher for example) so you should chill a little and quit being so religous. Calling someone something that's intended to kill them inside is a curse.
@u2bMODERATOR I can see where your coming from, but my best friend is a Satanist and its not like I worship the devil so is it bad if i just listen to it?
@EFMotownEF I'm an atheist however I do respect people that has a religion... and this music is just plain awesome... there are many of the christian principals that are just great... but religion just doesn't work for me... for if I can't be who I am, and do what I want to what am I then (referring the prodigal son)? Anyways respect ppl... no matter the religion...
Just because you can say the F word does not mean it's alright to do so...yes we do have the choice to do so...but we were created in God's image...and you know that it's not pleasing to God...your supposed to strive to make your life like Christ did...I don't think Christ cursed once...and those of us that correct other christians...are also doing what God has commanded...your supposed to support and help eachother along...be there for each other...Love your neighbor as thy self...
They do sound very similiar to Unearth in the guitar department,but this guy is a way sicker singer IMO,not say Unearth's singer is bad though cause I love that band.
Dear Christians who like war of ages and comment:
Stand Your Ground.
favorite band (= they helped me want to form a personal relationship with Christ
2019, this song still gives me chills.
2020 here lol.
2021
2023
2024!
Dude they're a legit Christian band, they truly live for God.
I love the Bodom style ending and this song gives me faith to stand ground and fight the evil things I face everyday from porngraphy to cussing STAND don't let Satan intiminate you and don't let the door open for him FIGHT back with the Bible or saying "In Jesus' Name I rubuke you devil you don't belong here LEAVE" or whatever you feel inside but just stay with Jah and keep rawkin on!!!
Hope you’re still standing strong in the faith today!
@@JasonStephens7 I am brother thanks for asking 😊Jesus is my everything.
Holy shit, this is a badass song! Ive never heard this song of theirs, but i started listening to them at 2014.
As a Norse Pagan- These were the Christians we had an alliance with.
They will always have a seat in Valhalla.
And we'd be honored to visit them in their Heaven.
The new WoA is REALLY good (Dominion)but I still love the remastered version of this album the most.

Deus Vult! Fight evil and overcome the devil and temptations. War of Ages is awesome!!
All God's people will prevail...we all will stand our ground
I just heard them live at chameleon club last night they do a great live show. If you like this band YOU NEED TO SEE THEM LIVE!
i`m not hardcore christian... BUT i do love their music! WOA FOREVER!
If you ever get the chance to meet these guys, do it. They are some of the coolest dudes ever.
Christian heavy metal. Love it. Shredding the guitar and drums for GOD...
17 years ago❤!

Being religious doesn't make someone a bad person. Thinking you're better than someone (or putting someone down) because of their beliefs does.
I'm not a religious person. Usually not a fan of christian bands...but these guys are sick.
Haters will hate. Nuff said.
This is the first song I ever heard of WoA back in like 06 or 07 and got me into the band
ALL TIME fav band, oh and OneThirdLife Said this:
AND, if you DONT like War of Ages because it's a Christian band, why the hell are you even watching it and posting comments? I'm guessing you have no life.. :( Great took the words of of my mouth.
im christian and im tired of reading people say im christian on here, JUST LISTEN TO THE MUSIC! to me they are just a metal band.
spreading the message thats what they are doing..so what you point of listening if you are not going to listen to thier message?? you just wasted your time
Best Metalcore band 4 EVER!!!!
I love Chirst!!! But i respect EVERYONES opinion on life and no matter what your beliefs are... Lets just enjoy this BAND!!!
i must admit that solo at the end took away whatever doubts of talent...lol. Yes, this music video is much better than strength within.
Very true and I agree with you, however, the bible says that the words we speak need to be pleasing to God... if youre around people that understand this then rock on, but it would show maturity to respect those that choose not to swear and refrain from it...thats all...judge not lest ye be judged yourself... let people do what they want and dont judge them, just make sure that YOU are right with God in your heart...
i'm actually more a fanatic atheist/satanist than a christian, but i can still enjoy this music, you don't have to like the lyrics, it's about the music
Throwdown are crazy amazing! They were def the best band live!
THEIR FROM MY TOWN!!! their all rele cool i was at the video shoot for all consuming fire and i metem like 3 time cool guys
one of the top metal bands today, let alone christian metal. those who are insulted because of your beliefs, stand your fucking ground. stay the course. war of ages forever. \m/
and respect christians!!!!!! we make good music
I love the riff at the end... awesome guitar.
God is good we shall stand our ground
sei de uma coisa um dia eu ouvir uma frase, "NÃO EXISTIRA NEM UM SÓ RITMO QUE NÃO LOUVARA O NOME DE DEUS. TODOS OS RITMOS PERTENCEM A DEUS"
War of Ages is sick!!!
Just because that's the way you see it doesn't mean that's how it is. Tim Lambesis has been screaming for over ten years and he did a show in Thailand or Singapore (don't remember, aint looking it up now) that covered all their cd's to date at once.
I so feel this❤❤❤❤❤

I met these guys the other day in Toronto. They are fucking amazing to chill with, and are explosive live! It was a real treat to see these guys open for Soilwork and Throwdown!
\m/
coolness.
i used to go to the same school some of these guys went to.
pretty amazing
Their good. Up their with Zao, Demon Hunter, As I Lay Dying, The Devil Wears Prada, and Living Sacrifice in my book.
i think its funny how so many people complain about the arguments when they are the ones fanning the flame
these guys are friggin baller.
I'll be seeing them for my fourth time in two weeks.
they are for reall someone to look up to,
they have a pretty crazy background.
and producing music about god.
thats friggin amazing!
steve brown's a beast at the guitar
i love this band
one of the reasons is because they are christian
valid point! its not really a matter of right and wrong tho. if it was then you would be right.its really just a matter of common courtesy and setting an example. using bad language around those that dont understand what you and me understand can cause confusion for some. It may not be a sin but it also dont kill us to not swear.the beauty of God is that he knows everyones hearts and will judge us accordingly.i swear sometimes too but it doesnt bring honor to God when we talk that way.thats all
GREAT CHRISTIAN MUSICIANS!!
this is a badass song
We lie awake in our battlefields
One chance to prove ourselves
We will prevail
Our will to live is powerful and our strength will never fade away
To the weak who try to stop us
You don't have the strength
So save your breath
Stand your ground when our hate has been concealed
I'll carry it to the grave now that fate is revealed
My eyes begin to close
If we close our eyes and keep to ourselves in hope that everything will fade away
We'll live in shame and wonder to ourselves if there will ever be a second chance
With strength we'll never fall apart and in time we'll prove ourselves
My heart can't be broken for I'll never live in shame
With every breath and all that I am I'll make a stand
Until the end stand your ground
do not respect any man but god alone but treat all with love there is a diference.
wow they look so different and the vocalist got so much better even though this is still great
I listen to a lot of christian music. Generally I do not like screamo/metal core music but I love these guys. All three of the albums are awesome. There is not a song I do not like. And yes I like the message.
GOOD MUSIC, GOOD MESSAGE.

but the band is a christian band because it's what they're about. to these guys, and most musicians, it's not about the music but it's about what you believe in.
these guys are playing for Jesus
@GuitariousMaximus Listen to All Consuming Fire, Through the flames, and Collapse. All of them are amazingly good. Somehow though, they find guitar players who have God playing through them

hello
They do sound very similiar to Unearth in the guitar department,but this guy is a way sicker singer IMO,not say Unearth's singer is bad though cause I love that band.
agreed. :D
Awesome jam! But I honestly like the other version better on the Fire From The Tomb album
