1 | Should music be allowed in church? | Bible general Archive 1 | orthodoxy | 5665 | ||
I'll leave the disproving to others, but I think that I can explain a bit. First, it depends on whether he is reacting to music as a whole, or just the music in youth group. If it is the latter, I would not only understand but wholeheartedly agree. I am coming to believe that "contemporary worship" does not count as worship. Look at the majesterial forms of worship set up in the Old Testament, and see how Hebrews says that we have come to something even more impressive. Then think about the kinds of music commonly played in youth groups. Doesn't exactly fit. Music is to contribute to a proper attitude, an attitude of awe, reverence, fear, and joy. Worship is entering into the very throne room of the risen Christ, and should reflect the gravity of the situation. Most music used in worship simply does not do this. If the gentlemen in question is thinking along these lines, his position is fairly understandable. However, if he holds that music of any kind is not permissible in worship, I am at somewhat of a loss to provide an explanation. It seems that music has always been used by the people of God in worship from the very earliest. My guess is that he is overreacting to the sentimental tripe that passes for "worship" nowadays. |

2 | Should music be allowed in church? | Bible general Archive 1 | Grace | 5686 | ||
This is Grace, I asked the original question. The father rejects ALL music in church. He attends a Church Of God and they allow NO music inside the church. They say it is against the new testiment which they live by. Thus my question...what are they basing this on? As far as the music our church and the youth group plays...we use mostly Vineyard, Passion, praise and worship type music. | ||||||

Well, if he is denying the use of all music in worship, then I really don't know where he's getting that. Paul indicates the use of songs in worship. I'm afraid I can't help here. | ||||||
