What, however, has happened to Christian music? Christian music has departed from following its true form. No longer does Christian musical notation attempt to characterize Godly attributes, but it does characterize sensual feelings through sensual rhythm and harmony. No longer do Christian Lyrics strongly and scripturally echo God's word, but weakly squeak of moral platitudes and vague, subjective, pious feelings. Its musicians derive their dramatization from Rock musicians, hip hop,etc , and its symbolization is a mix-mash of pseudo-religionists wallowing in a good god, good devil, good man mire. Such musical mush is a mournful departure from anything that might be scripturally termed "spiritual."
Many fundamentalists have become enamoured with this pseudo-Christian music because of its sensual fleshly appeal, and defend its "spirituality" with great vigor and apparent offense. As music mirrors the soul of an individual, so does this pseudo-Christian music reflect the carnal condition of the souls and lives of such persons, be they clergy or laity.
Many pastors of fundamental churches consistently fill their auditoriums and congregations with this kind of religious musical mush. Often such pastors wonder about the quality of spiritual growth in their church members not recognizing that such spiritually weak, carnal, sensual music is one of their problems, personally and ecclesiastically
I like old school gospel music. Not a big fan of the so-called modern christian music.keep blogging
ReplyDeleteThis blog is very attractive everything design in well-manner and all things are very informative. I like this post very much.
ReplyDeleteI think that its because we as christians are morally bankrupt. We want to feel good when we want and not when the spirit leads us so we resought to substitutes. Its very unfortunate that is the trend and it will cont to get worse.
