  • Shifts in Protestant Worship and Doctrine – J
    Shifts in Protestant Worship and Doctrine – J. Stockton Shifts in Protestant Worship and Doctrine Pastor Jonathan Stockton 2017 BBTS Fall Lecture Series " Baptists and the Reformation" Protestant philosophy with respect to worship has been in flux for the past seventy years. Because of that, and in order to address shifts, a baseline must be established. A church's and a Christian's philosophy of music and worship should be doctrinal. That is, they should be sifted through the Scriptures just as any other dogma. For instance, the tongues movement, as a pneumatology, is contrasted to Scripture, and cast out. Calvinism, as a soteriology, is thrown against the castle wall of Scripture, and repelled. So there should be a "doctrine" of music! This is not "hymnology," which studies primarily the music used in worship, but a doctrine of music in its general use in the world, with or without lyrics. It might be called "psallology." It should be a Scriptural musicology. Perhaps to say that a philosophy of music and worship should be doctrinal is a misnomer – they seem to be so inherently, so that a church can often be identified by its music, and its music usually identified by its doctrine. Many would contest that statement, but even casual observation overwhelmingly supports it. I. Should Baptist churches be musical? God's churches are musical. A. Prophecy fulfilled shows that they were musical: 1. Romans 15:9-11 explains that Psalm 18:49-50 is a prophecy of the fact that Gentiles would sing the praises of God along with God's chosen people, because of His great mercy.

  • Holy Crow Der Concert
    August 13, 2017 # 240 Does God Need A Little Help From His Friends? Do you worship the One True God or a god of your own making? Today’s message will challenge believers to re-examine their fashioned image of God. By observation of what we evangelicals express concerning Him these days, it would appear that God might need a makeover or do-over, getting a little help from His friends! It has been said, The Scripture teaches that God made us in His image and now we want to return the favor by remaking Him in our image!” There is no doubt that God is bigger than the understanding of any man! He is the God of the Universe – He is I AM! End of Summer Bible Study for Youth Announcing an end of summer Bible Study for Junior and Senior High students! On Sunday nights, beginning tonight, August 13, we will have a teaching session in the South Butler School District. Many of our students are out that direction and showing interest in digging into the Word. If you are free on Sunday nights, join us at 7:00, in the Casey’s garage, 760 Bear Creek Rd, Cabot PA 16023. This will be about a 6 week study to see how things go. Hope to see you there. Wednesday Night Youth Group with Mrs. Andrea Cranmer will get back into the swing of things once school begins! Her loving heart and gracious attitude have ministered to many over the years. I want to encourage you to continue to be a part of what she is doing and make the most of both of these opportunities.
