The Perils of the 'Doctrines' of Musical Worship

I came across this article from www.deceptioninthechurch.com, in which it refers to the insiduous nature of ascribing the essence of spirituality, godliness, holiness plainly according to the attributes of the style of musical worship that is employed in the midst of any congregation of worshippers.

It does a noteworthy attempt at drawing a fine line between advocating the Hebraic roots in the element of worship in the Christian faith; and that of placing an overemphasis upon the spiritualizing of worship through an un-negotiable approach of employing only the Davidic style of worship from the Old Testament.

I took an interest in sharing this article, especially because it provides a form of antithesis to how a reader may view my recent 'sudden' influx of 'interest' in the sharing of many songs used by Paul Wilbur's Messianic Praise music ministry, since I expect that that has become a backdrop thesis with regard to how I consider the value of the style used by Paul Wilbur in motivating the heart of worship for the Christian, especially the non-Jew of the Vine, in the light of the sobering language of apostle Paul towards the Gentile Christians, in the eleventh chapter of his letter to the church in Rome.

These enduring tropes explain why all presidential candidates feel compelled to offer ritualistic paeans to America's greatness and why President Barack Obama landed in hot water -- most recently, from Mitt Romney -- for s...

Future Weapons - ATACMS T2KU-2A

Image
This is the latest incarnation of the US Army Tactical Missile System, a guided surface-to-surface artillery rocket system that exceeds the range of the Multiple Launch Rocket System (MLRS) by four times (in excess of 200 km). This latest version incorporates modifications to the flight dynamics and rocket trajectory, as well as enhanced target accuracy for application in urban warfare environments, allowing the rocket to achieve a precision strike by impacting its target in a near-vertical angle of attack, thus minimising collateral damage. This new system capability provides an added dimension to the options available to soldiers and commanders in the field in the engagement of high-value, time-sensitive targets that are surrounded by clutter such as civilian personnel and structures.
