Subject: New church? |
Bible Note: EdB:-) Merry Christmas Ed. Every point you make is true form my perspective as well. There are some who would say any music that is worshipful must be sung with an organ. I am sure you understand what I mean, I hope you do anyway. What many do not know is many of our traditional hymns were melodies taken from the popular music of the time. a good number of tumes came right out of dance music that was played in bars, and other worldly places. The same arguments that we hear today about modern music was also said back then. The issues remain the same only the years have changed to sounds and tempo. We have seen Bill Gathers music become a standard in many hymn books today, and I remember a church that would not allow "that kind of music" many years ago. I am not saying all you have sao\id is not valid. I am saying some issues never change because change is hard for us all. The older some people get the more resistant they are to any change. Hopefully we can be willing to listen and make good judgements about what is worship and what is disrespectful to the Lord. Blessings Ed. justme |
