“let me make the songs of a nation, and I care not who makes its law.”
― Plato
The other night I was at a bible study and we sang a song I sang many times in the past 20 years at church. But this time it didn’t sit well with my soul.
I stood there wondering, what is wrong that makes me feel like this is wrong.
Then it jumped out at me. The song is all about me. It put me in the hero position.
It’s about how I feel about God, what I do for God, and what I will do for God.
In the last year and a half, our family has been invited into a brethren assembly which is quite different than modern churches. 99% of what we sing is older hymns with piano music. No worship leader, no mood lighting, no loudspeaker system. At first, it felt odd.
But after singing these songs for the last year and a half, I totally see the issue with the modern progressive church. I don’t say that lightly or flippantly. It’s being controlled by what it worships. Itself.
I just looked at the top Christian worship songs of 2022 online, and 90% of the songs are all about “me” as I mentioned above.
It’s who I am in God.
As I look at my hymn book right now, it’s all about who God is in me.
And we wonder why the “live your best life now gospel” and the life coach preachers are so popular right now.
Because it’s all about “me” and what I will do for Jesus, not what Jesus did for me.
It’s all about what am I going to experience in this worship song, not how am I going to be transformed by the renewing of my mind by Jesus.
The Kingdom of God operates completely opposite of the world, and if I may be so bold, the Church has lost its authority in the world because it’s becoming just like the world, focused on “me”.
I understand that’s going to offend brothers and sisters in Christ when I say that, but it needs to be said.
As Jesus said. We cannot serve two masters. We will love one and hate the other. It’s impossible for us to love Jesus and the world at the same time.
Careful of what you listen to and call “worship” music, as it frames your mind. Your worship music should align with biblical theology and sound doctrine.
"I am more concerned about what God wants of me than what I want of God." ~Charlie Kirk This is the key difference between Christianity and paganism or witchcraft. The Greek gods were many so that each could serve your desires. The spells and curses of witchcraft were...
Israel and the Jewish people, not following Christ, are a reflection of the prodigal son. They have denied the father and left to blow away their inheritance of the physical kingdom. One day they will come back home and the Father will open up His arms in tears,...
Joh 14:15 "If you love Me, keep My commandments. Joh 14:16 And I will pray the Father, and He will give you another Helper, that He may abide with you forever— Joh 14:17 the Spirit of truth, whom the world cannot receive, because it neither sees Him nor knows Him;...
