The New Testament Instructions for the Use of Music in Worship

Today’s Christians are under a strong delusion believing that church worship music is what is being played in many Christian’s airways are the musical praises to Almighty God. Before you can argue with that statement, let’s read the Bible for acceptable references for musical worship.

Build Your House on the Rock

Introduction This week has been particularly challenging for my younger daughter. She is going through an extremely difficult situation in her life right now. As her dad, it hurts me deeply to see her suffering. I wish I could take away her pain and bear it myself. Unfortunately, I can’t. All I can do is be there for her, offering support and comfort from afar (for now) since I moved to Florida…

We know that the one who raised the Lord Jesus from the dead will also raise us with Jesus

Daily Verse Reading – 2 Corinthians 4:7-15 7 But we have this treasure in jars of clay to show that this all-surpassing power is from God and not from us. 8 We are hard pressed on every side, but not crushed; perplexed, but not in despair; 9 persecuted, but not abandoned; struck down, but not destroyed. 10 We always carry around in our body the death of Jesus, so that the life of Jesus may also…

3 And even if our gospel is veiled, it is veiled to those who are perishing. 4 In their case the god of this world has blinded the minds of the unbelievers, to keep them from seeing the light of the gospel of the glory of Christ, who is the image of God. 5 For what we proclaim is not ourselves, but Jesus Christ as Lord, with ourselves as your servants for Jesus' sake. 6 For God, who said, "Let light shine out of darkness," has shone in our hearts to give the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ. 7 But we have this treasure in jars of clay, to show that the surpassing power belongs to God and not to us.

Up To Par

Isn't it funny how God uses everything in our lives to teach us something, even the game of golf. Enjoy! God bless ya!

So now the case is closed. There remains no accusing voice of condemnation against those who are joined in life-union with Jesus, the Anointed One. For the “law” of the Spirit of life flowing through the anointing of Jesus has liberated us from the “law” of sin and death. For God achieved what the law was unable to accomplish, because the law was limited by the weakness of human nature. Yet God…
