The 21st. Century Music Synthesis-part 2


The 21st. Century Music Synthesis-part 2

Yesterday we discussed amalgamating music styles into an appropriate *synthesis.   Ingenious isn’t it?  Now when a minister of music inappropriately combines music styles that are inappropriate for use with worship of a high and Holy God, Satan has successfully squeezed church music into the world’s mold.  The result is religious rock music which is the perfect style for them to use to trick the world into becoming lovers of Christ.  Before sinners know it the church will deceive them into becoming Christians.  Of course, synthesis thinkers want them to be saved in their sins, not from their sins, so this autonomous music doesn’t have to preach a life changing relationship with Christ.  Rather, this autonomous non-rational, non-logical, leap of faith will bring a non-rational faith to these new autonomous worldly Christians.  Sounds dangerous, doesn’t it?  The reason it sounds dangerous is that it is the result of synthesis musical thinking. 

*Synthesis-- Combining musical style ideas to form a music system. It is a mixture of traditional Christian and worldly popular styles of music.  This amalgamation is often called contemporary Christian (?) music.
