God Created the Building Blocks of Music-part 2

 

God Created the Building Blocks of Music-part 2

 

A non-descript and fuzzy music philosophy derived from a misunderstanding of the significance of Gen 1:1 will give rise to a faulty musical ministry praxis which is one’s  purposeful way of using music as a secular art form or in one’s church music ministry.  This means that if God, by virtue of ownership, does not become Lord over all of a Christian’s musicing, as an art form and as a musical offering to God in that musician’s music ministry, it will not be very long until God will not be Lord at all over that Christian musician’s musicing.   Because of the causality resulting from faulty music praxis, it will not take very much time until a musician’s music ministry will all become anthropocentric rather than Christocentric.

When Christian’s realize that they do not own music, it is much easier to recognize that they are musical servants with responsibilities rather than rights.  Music was created because God willed that it should exist. Therefore, it is reasonable to come to the logical hypothesis that He still has a will concerning music.  We should remember that God created the formal properties of music i.e. the nuts and bolts of music that make it what it is capable of being.

 

Scripture Thought for the Day

Colossians 1:18, “And he is the head of the body, the church: who is the beginning, the firstborn from the dead; that in all things he might have the preeminence.”
