The Song of Fools -part 2
Although the message of His suffering
and death is a very solemn message, there is another side to this musical
coin. Turn it over and you will see victory
through our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. You will see the joy of the debt of
sin being paid by His suffering and death and resurrection. You will also see that we can have a clean
and pure heart through the efficacy of His precious blood that was shed on
Calvary. (See Acts 29:28, Hebrews 9:12,
13:12 and Revelation 1:5) You will
further see freedom from the guilt of sin.
You will also see the joy of having a relationship with our Lord and
Savior Jesus Christ in this life and in the life to come. Sing and play and tell through your musicing,
not only the suffering and death of our savior, but also of the fact that He
was victorious over sin, death, hell and the grave.
The message of the “song of fools” is very
different because it is mostly an empty social gospel. The gospel message of Christ crucified is far
better than the foolish, light, chaffy, religious music that contains little of
any eternal value. Church musicians that are still musicing the whole gospel
should not allow themselves to be intimidated.
The true truth of the deep message of Christ crucified, buried, and
risen again and seated on the right of the Father praying for us all is exactly
what the post postmodern world needs to hear.
