Their Own Point of View

praise band entering into the presence of God before the throne of God?The sort of behavior that uses worship as a form of escapism to travel into another world would stand out as very foreign to the dear saints who through their lifetimes have understood worship from a whole different standpoint. It would not make sense to those who have traditionally understood that God is omnipresent and that there is no need to enter into some spiritual exercise to see Him revealed. While realizing that the Bible teaches that God lives within every believer, they would be confused by the New Worship theology that declares you have to transcend into the supernatural world to find God. They would not comprehend why the rituals proposed by New Worshippers are necessary. They would wonder why a considerable amount of our New Worship music today contains few words with little doctrine, but rather is limited to sentimental statements of love and affection. Then, after they have heard the repetitive mantra of this new form of worship designed to conjure up God, they would consider it equal to meditation.

In the mean time, contemporary worshippers who define worship as “entering in” would find themselves feeling superior to those old folks who just don’t know what it is like to be one with God as they are. For being one with God to these people many times is all about these weekly worship experiences rather than a daily walk with Him. And it is because they know how to behold this secret of God that they believe they are more spiritual than the rest. They have found a place where hidden mysteries of God can be found. It is because of this that in their minds “their music” is the “only music” that can be used for worship. The old hymns are just too wordy and complex to allow the singer to escape and gain that state of mind that allows him to really worship.

There was a praise team member who was pretty adamant in this position. He disliked the hymns so much that even while on stage he refused to sing them when they were played on the organ. Yet whenever the emotions would rise, as the congregation would sing contemporary praise songs, he would say things like, “That is what worship is all about!”

On the other side of the coin I led the praise team in a church that ministered to the old and youth alike. One very powerful woman in the church hated contemporary music and anyone who had anything to do with it. One Sunday morning as we played it appeared that she was raising her hands to God. On closer inspection I noticed that she had her hands over her ears.

It is no wonder, therefore, why churches are divided in half over this. But there is no reason why pastors should remain ignorant of the source of the problem.

"I might not be a religious man myself but I know good music when I hear it, and this is very good! . . . I don’t think that I have ever given such high ratings to so many songs before. But the fact is that they are well deserved because the music is amazing. Simply wonderful religious ballads and they really get to your heart. . .everytime."
