Interpreting True Truth

 

Interpreting True Truth

“True truth” is found in God’s Word which reveals His will for mankind.  All other ‘truth’ is a presumed ‘truth’ and should not be compared to inspired  God breathed true truth which is found in His Word.  1Corinthians 13:9 explains, “For we know in part, and we prophesy in part.  But when that which is perfect is come, then that which is in part shall be done away.”  1Cointhians 13:12  also explains, “For now we see through a glass, darkly [through a mirror, dimly] but then face to face: now I know in part; but then shall I know [understand fully] even as also I am known.” However, even though we often only have partial knowledge, God intended that we subdue (kabash 3533)  all things that are around us (See Genesis 1:28).

So, in the process of establishing a justified belief, Bible principles become foundational.  The musician, who is a Christian and a worshiper, must come to an understanding of how the truth and verity of what the Bible states about music and musicing should be interpreted. When a justified belief is established, the Christian musician utilizes this belief about music and musicing in the context of how he or she musics.[GW1]   Justified theological beliefs about music and musicing which are formed from what the Bible teaches guide how a Christian musician musics unto one another and unto God.
