Kyle - Who IS this nutjob? And people are actually allowing him to spew this nonsense in public? I suppose this idiot thinks "Because He Lives" and "The King is Coming" are Godly songs...guess poor Bill just got snookered by the ole Devil, huh?
Nothing pushes my buttons faster than the "worship wars." Aargh!! When the ignorant spout the line that "hymns are holy & sacred, & anything not in the hymnal is worldly & not for worship," do they honestly think that hymns dropped down from Heaven in the 1st century & the Apostles set them to music? When was Fanny Crosby alive? Isaac Watts? John Wesley? Martin Luther? Do they not get that these people were the Bill Gaithers & Twila Parises & Michael W. Smiths & Darlene Zschechs of their times?
It's not about hymns vs. praise & worship, or old vs. new, or traditional vs. contemporary; it's about praising God through music that is inspired by Him to be used for His glory. Period. And anyone who says otherwise is just flat-out playing God. From what I know, that job is best left up to Him!
(deep breath)...ok, I'm calm(er) now.
Oh, one more thing: It's painfully obvious why this guy has a problem with "A Few Good Men."
He ain't one.
Legalistic Foolishness. I went to a christian school all my life (which i thank the Lord for) and they had some great classroom instruction, great music department, and solid bible teaching. However, i did not agree with their stance on music...ESPECIALLY southern gospel music. Some of the same things this guy said in his "sermon" were things that I heard in school. Its sad really.
I heard Dr James Macdonald of walk in the word ministries say (and paraphrase" "I think that the reason God said 'sing a new song' is because we get so EMOTIONALLY attached to the old songs that its not about worship anymore its about bringing back old memories" Makes sense...of course nothing wrong with singing the old hymns, songs of the faith....and there's NOTHING WRONG with God honoring, SOUTHERN GOSPEL
The song "A Few Good Men" was released by the GVB in 1991, while the group was still popular in CCM. Due to the success of the first Homecoming record, Gaither gradually led his organization toward SG, especially after CCM caught up with popular music around 1995; when this change took place, artists like GVB, Steve Green, and Sandi Patty no longer hit the charts in CCM.
This preacher is an example of extreme legalism, to be sure. As Christians, we need to be able to discern what lyrics say, and whether they are proper. I do agree with the preacher in one of his general assertions, that being the feminizing of the church. Yet that is a taboo subject too. If we all just read our Bibles more, and asked the Holy Spirit to teach us, perhaps we could cast aside these petty arguments about styles of music.
Even so, come quickly Lord Jesus.
Just watch some of the other videos this guy has on youtube. My favorites are "extra-biblical theology", in which he says that no man can explain the Bible to you, that only the Holy Spirit can do that, and then he proceeds to explain the Bible to his congregation, or "Baptist preacher gets heckled for preaching against Barack Obama", in which he yells at a man who spoke up in favor of Obama (which I'm not) to "get the hell out of my church"--those exact words. As for "Biblical preaching against Little House on the Prairie", well, that one just speaks for itself. Janet B is correct, this man is a nutjob.
