An Unbroken Chain of
Teaching-part 3
After years and years of being taught that church music
doesn’t matter and that the music part of music doesn’t matter, we are shocked
and chagrined when our children look, act and sound like Philistines when they
music unto a high and Holy God. What we
have failed to understand is that when much musical and spiritual garbage goes
into the minds of our children some or most of that garbage will come out in
our children’s musicing. When they have
received their musical instruction from music professors who do not love and
serve Jesus Christ, our children will music like the world when they reach
adulthood.
The reason
that Christian parents are often forced to place their children under those who
are often antagonistic toward what committed Christians believe about music and
musicing unto a high and holy triune God, is because there are so many
Christian musicians that refuse to follow St .Paul’s advice given to Timothy in
2 Timothy 2:1-2. Many talented Christian
musicians refuse to commit their musical knowledge to the next generation of
Christian musicians who will “be able to teach others also”. Instead of giving their musical gifts back to
God by teaching our Christian youth, these Christian musicians consume their
musical gifts on their own artistic lust.
By this refusal they break the continuous chain of teaching our Children
to music “the songs of the LORD” that is taught o clearly in both the Old and
New Testament.
