Christian musicians need to remember that in the
beginning music was created by God and for Him not “us” alone. Since He cares about “us” in a personal way,
He created it for our education, edification and our enjoyment as a part of His
very excellent creation. He created
music so that we might worship Him in a very personal way.
On this Sunday morning it is necessary to believe that
music is not personal to God if we are to believe that God does not have an
opinion about how we music unto Him. If music
is not personal to God, then it isn’t important to Him, evidently, so church
music doesn’t matter very much. If music does not matter to God, then what we do today probably does not matter to God. If music doesn’t
matter to God then it could most likely be quite benign and therefore it ip probable that our musicing is not a valuable part of Christian worship.
If
church music doesn’t matter then perhaps He did not objectively create music. If He did not create music then it is
possible that music is not objectively real to God then there is no real or
true cause and effect from performing this neutral amoral art form. If God did not care about music in the beginning, then it is highly possible that He does not care about it this Sunday morning. You should be justifiably angry at this point because you know that music does matter to God and that it matters how we music unto Him today. You know this because His Word declares over and over again that music does matter to God!
