The Christian Musician Thinks Differently-part 2
As a Christian musician reads God’s Word and as the
Holy Spirit
gives the musician
understanding of the many verses concerning music
and musicing found in
the Bible, a Christocentric music worldview is
developed. St. John
16:13 explains, “Howbeit when he, the Spirit of
truth, is come, he will
guide you into all truth: for he shall not speak of
himself; but whatsoever
he shall hear, that shall he speak: and he will
shew you things to
come.”
I am not claiming that this verse in the Bible has
any esoteric
meaning that is
exclusive to the Christian musician, but I am contending
that the truth
contained in this verse extends to Christian musicians who
are developing that window through which they
will view the whole of
music and musicing that
we call a Christian musical worldviewThe Holy
Spirit and God’s Word will guide the earnest
Christian musician into
“all truth” (pas
aletheia, 3956, 225 thorough truths or
verity).
