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.”
