also one more thing, if you haven't heard of her; check out Misty Edwards "People Get ready"/The Lion of the Tribe of Judah song. Definitely not unorigional. |

As quite the devout bible man (which I do not doubt, and praise God), can you tell me, for the sake of everyone, what the key problem is with these songs in terms of Christianity? |

I suppose perhaps I am trying too hard to read theology into their songs, but I see a few problems with this as a worship song. 1st and most importantly, the focus of the song is on us and not on God. Worship is not about us, it is us realizing the power and glory and might and holiness and perfection of God. 2nd it is not reverent, Jesus is not a circus king whose job it is to sing for us. He is the Son of God and equal with the Father. He came the first time in peace, but when He comes back it will be with a sword! 3rd, I'm wondering if there isn't unitarian theme, "when we're all unsaved" progresses to "we think that you can carry all of us"
Biblical imagery and religious overtones won't get you to Heaven, and I do hope that Page France is full of Chrisians who are using their gifts to draw interest and glorify God to people who perhaps wouldn't hear of Him otherwise (which would mean I am mistaken, and by all means it would be better for them if I am misunderstanding!--David Eugene Edwards is doing something similar, as a Christian making music for people who aren't Christian.) |
