Faith Basis and Musical Understanding

                          Faith Basis and Musical Understanding

        Hebrews11:1 gives an explanation of what faith basis is, “Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen.”  2Corinthians 4:18 further explains the essence of faith basis, “While we look not at the things which are seen, but at the things which are not seen: for the things which are seen are temporal; but the things which are not seen are eternal.” The use of the term faith connotes trust as opposed to doubt. 

          2 Corinthians 5:5-8, “Now he that hath wrought us for the selfsame thing is God, who also hath given unto us the earnest of the Spirit. Therefore we are always confident, knowing that, whilst we are at home in the body, we are absent from the Lord: (For we walk by faith, not by sight:) We are confident, I say, and willing rather to be absent from the body, and to be present with the Lord.”  So, first and foremost, faith based music philosophy finds its significance in a faith in God and His inspired Word.
