"By necessary, I mean that Timoth...Hi Daniel,<br /><br />"By necessary, I mean that Timothy's paper states useful information which is edifying to the church."<br /><br />Hmmm, interesting reasoning. If that is so, then any "paper" or "material" that "states useful information which is edifying to the church" would be necessary.<br /><br />I would say most Christian literature have "useful information which is edifying to the church" in some way, and these would be necessary for our discussion here then, including Bunyan's Pilgrim's Progress and Warren's Purpose Driven Life. That's a great observation.<br /><br />Also, even secular literature which contains "useful information which is edifying to the church" - even a critique or persecutive, anti-Christian material which is "edifying" in some ways - would be necessary. The blood of the martyrs is the seed of the church, ain't it so? Hence, yes, even persecutive, anti-Christian material would be "edifying" for the church. Our blood would be the seed of the church, if needed.<br /><br />Hence yes, according to you, Yawning Bread's pro-homosexual anti-Christian literature would be necessary too. That's a great observation, brother!<br /><br />"The Reformed view MUST include discussing and embracing what is historically known as the Regulative Principle of Worship."<br /><br />Why MUST it so?

Timothy did not discuss the Regulative Principle, and thus it falls short of being Reformed.Daniel Chttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00678184721218949112noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8769411308036483792.post-8978085028994296562009-10-21T19:23:40.152-07:002009-10-21T19:23:40.152-07:00"I would say that Timothy's paper while n..."I would say that Timothy's paper while necessary cannot really call itself THE Reformed view."<br /><br />Hi Daniel,<br /><br />May I know how is "Tomothy's paper" "necessary," while not being THE Reformed view.<br /><br />In what way is it "necessary?"<br /><br />And what is THE reformed view?<br /><br />thanksHui Chengnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8769411308036483792.post-16866929539106229282009-10-20T19:39:33.136-07:002009-10-20T19:39:33.136-07:00I think Timothy has made some good points regardin...I think Timothy has made some good points regarding music and the criteria on discerning the types of music that is appropriate or inappropriate regarding the coherence of the musical tune to the lyrics.<br /><br />That said, the regulative principle of worship which is the Reformed position on worship, has not been addressed here. I would say that Timothy's paper while necessary cannot really call itself THE Reformed view.Daniel Chttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00678184721218949112noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8769411308036483792.post-49091802066785990252009-10-20T17:49:47.535-07:002009-10-20T17:49:47.535-07:00Two more articles debunking the myth that Luther w...Two more articles debunking the myth that Luther was a promiscuous composer of music ...<br /><br /><br />http://michaelprewitt.com/2009/07/did-martin-luther-use-drinking-songs-1144/<br /><br />http://stonge.intheway.org/documents/Music%20Worship%20and%20Luther.pdfAugustinian Successorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04701412663559781833noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8769411308036483792.post-79051346505140928752009-10-20T17:41:32.641-07:002009-10-20T17:41:32.641-07:00On the use of "bar-tunes" by Luther ...
