A Biblical Understanding of Music

By Filings on Wed, 04/30/25
Bible, Theology & Philosophy
Music

“An individual’s theology drives musical choice. The outgrowth of a biblical theology is spirit-filled singing coupled with gracious thanksgiving (Col. 3:16-17). There is also an emphasis on worshipping God with singing for His attributes and works (Ps. 95:1-6). Non-biblical theology is characterized by the ‘noise of war’ (Exod. 32:17) and insincere songs (Amos 6:5).” - P&D
