Outstanding Sermon! In the United States, many conservative Christians take a strict constructionist position in regard to the U.S. Constitution. That is, they understand the Constitution to mean what the framers of the document understood it to mean, as discovered by their own commentary upon the document, in opposition to the claims of many today who consider it a "living document" whose meaning changes from generation to generation. But what about the Bible? Does it not mean what its inspired authors understood it to mean, as well? In our day, we understand the words "hymns and songs" in "psalms, hymns, and spiritual songs (Ephesians 5:19; Colossians 3:16)" to refer to the uninspired compositions of men. But is that what the Apostle meant when he wrote those words in Greek? Could it be that we are sinning when we sing uninspired compositions in the worship of God? By comparing scripture with scripture, this sermon gives a clear explanation of the meaning of these words, as the Apostle understood them, and as the Church understood them for many centuries before uninspired compositions were introduced into Christian worship. To refuse to seek the truth in this matter is sinful, but God will bless all those who seek for and practice His truth. |
