1. God Is the Master Musician and He Is Supremely Competent in the Arena of Music
2. Scripture Provides Abundant Evidence of God’s Interest in Music
Excerpt:
Think about this for a moment. Why do lovers often sing to one another? Is it not to draw out the expression of their thoughts and feelings? To express themselves with more humanness? In this they reflect the glory of God in differing ways. God has filled this world with sounds and pitch of all types. There is meaning in all of this. Man exercises a certain function of his dominion over the creation through his making and using of music (Gen. 1:26). In the worship of God man uses this special gift in a most direct and sacred manner. My prayer is that we who influence the church will seek after God and praise Him in accord with His revealed Word. My hope is that we will make good and proper use of music for the glory of God.
