Christianity has not embraced belief in a literal Siren and I am certainly not advocating Greek Mythology. Rather, I am using this story illustratively.
Proverbs warns against the alluring sounds of the seductive woman who would capture the undisciplined man and ship wreck his life.
“My son attend to my wisdom, and bow your ear to my understanding, that you may regard discretion and that your lips may keep knowledge. For the lips of an immoral woman drip as a honeycomb, and her mouth is smoother than oil. But her end is bitter as wormwood, sharp as a two-edged sword. Her feet go down to death, her steps take hold of Sheol” (5:1-5 MEV my emphasis).
“…to keep you from the evil woman, from the flattery of the tongue of a seductress. Do not lust after her beauty in your heart, nor let her allure you with her eyelids. For by means of a harlot a man is reduced to a piece of bread, and the adulteress will prey upon his precious life” (6:24-26 MEV my emphasis).
History is filled with the fall and ruin of men who could not resist the alluring lips and mouth of the seductive woman.
The song of the Sirens is not just mythological but a true weapon of the powers of darkness. A seductive spirit.
It is used to destroy men who have not “made a covenant with their eyes” (Job 31:1) nor guarded their heart with the righteousness of Jesus Christ.
Indeed, that is the very objective of this Luciferian music.
Allure the heart of a man, captivate his imagination and drive him to sail into the dangerous waters that will ship wreck his life on the rocks of moral impurity.
