Music in Scripture: Finding God’s Model and Making it Mine (Wk. 2) Peter Davis July, 2010

It’s all about…  God  His Word  His works  His relationship to us

The purpose of the text: To communicate truth to be believed

The purpose of the music: To add EMOTION, ENJOYMENT, BEAUTY, AND GLORY. (to the text)

How can I know from Scripture what my music choices should be?

What has God condemned? What has God modeled?

What can I as an individual be allowed to do? What is wise for a leader/protector of others to allow?

Narratives are helpful, but inconclusive

We find also in scripture:  Descriptions of carnality/spirituality (Gal. 5:19-23)  Good/bad food for thought (Phil. 4:8)  Instructions about debatable things (1 Cor. 8-10, Rom. 14)

Gal. 5:16 But I say, walk by the Spirit, and you will not carry out the desire of the flesh.

Gal. 5:19 Now the deeds of the flesh are evident, which are: immorality, impurity, sensuality, idolatry, sorcery, enmities, strife, jealousy, outbursts of anger, disputes, dissensions, factions, envying, drunkenness, carousing, and things like these…

Gal. 5:22-23 But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, self- control…

God’s description of carnality is  A representative list  A list of things He says are evident  A non-exhaustive list (“and such like”)  A sufficient list

Can the flesh be expressed in music?  Sensuality?  Anger?  Drunkenness?  Revelings?

Can the fruit of the Spirit be expressed in music?  Joy?  Peace?  Gentleness?  Self-control (temperance)?

(Listening samples) Sensuality, anger, drunkenness, revelling? Honorable, pure, lovely, commendable?

A syllogism :  Music affects emotions  Some emotions are good or bad  Therefore, music is not neutral

The non-neutrality of music is supported by  scripture  personal experience  secular rock musicians  secular philosophers  secular musicologists

The non-neutrality of music Does NOT mean  isolated elements are good or evil  culture is not a factor  Music’s effects are absolute and automatic

How can music become carnal? Can carnality be gradual and incremental?

Compare to other subjective areas  drug use  clothing/modesty  alcoholic content of beverages  physical contact with opposite gender  gluttony  hair styles

Combination of factors Increments of elements Subjective choices

Philippians 1:9-11 “And this I pray, that your love may abound still more and more in real knowledge and all discernment, so that you may approve the things that are excellent…:”

Philippians 4:8 “Whatsoever things are true… honorable (dignified)…just…pure…lovely… commendable; …any virtue… any praise, think these things.”

God calls us to  test all things  hold fast the good  abstain from evil

“Do not be deceived: ‘Bad company corrupts good morals.’ ” 1 Corinthians 15:33

“Everyone who has been fully trained will be like his teacher.” Luke 6:40

Concerning increments…. “A little leaven leavens the whole lump.” 1 Corinthians 5:6

What’s it all about?
