This question is very similar to one we received from last week.While I am uncertain as to what you mean those who are "mind-controlled by heavy-metal," I assume you are referring to the genre of music known as heavy-metal.
I don't believe it is fair to generalize like that; not all heavy-metal music condones the worship of Satan and I'm not even certain you can be mind-controlled by it. It IS fair, however, to suggest that some heavy-metal songs delve into satanic themes and therefore should be avoided. Satan can often use the lyrics in these songs to negatively influence your mind. That being said, even if someone is "mind-controlled by heavy-metal," God will help that person.
Read our answer HERE (from last week). Here is an excerpt:
YES, God will help. After all, God wants people to be saved including those involved in forms of the occult. Yet there is a degree of human responsibility in salvation. Acts 2:21 says: "And it shall come to pass that everyone who calls upon the name of the Lord shall be saved." In order to be saved, a person must repent of his sin and call for God's help on his own accord. God may open the spiritual eyes of a person under the control of Satanism, but he must embrace this truth for himself. In other words, if a person is under the control of Satanism and resists God's help, God will not force this choice onto a person, even if it is for their own good.Hope this helps. Keep the questions coming!
