[εις επαινον δοξης αυτου] New comment on Woship: What's the Issue?.

Tim has left a new comment on your post "Woship: What's the Issue?":

Concerning your first point, we are on the same page, the "manner" or "means" would be principles.

I don't think the illustration breaks down. Music, art, and literature communicate something. Even if music is "less specific" it is communicating. The cave man illustration is perfect to illustrate my point. The cave man is communicating that he wants some food. The question isn't the clarity of the communication, but that communication is taking place. You seem to recognize this in a later statement, "Music without words can communicate some, but is a VERY blurry medium." That the message is discrete or subtle may, in fact, argue the case for the other side of the music debate. ?



Deuteronomy 6 is like the Romans of the Old Testament. It completely flies in the face of the legalism of Judaism or, for that matter, Fundamentalism. Like I said, I don't think anyone would deny the relationship between faith and love, but I don't see how it makes your case for CCM. Maybe we can talk over coffee sometime. Tell Eilers to come as well! :)
