I see now where you were coming at and going to in your blog/sermon. I appreciate your kindness in taking the time to answer my question(s). BTW- I've also responded to your response to my question(s)/comments on the 9Marks blog site. Thanks again for taking the time out of your busy schedule to clear up what we both understood is right and true, "Praising God with all my (our) heart, soul, mind, and strength should build up those around me."

Mutual edification is a part of our corporate worship that is often minimalized or ignored altogether. I think there's a healthy tension between building the church and being intelligible to outsiders, but my point here is simply to highlight the fact that singing is meant to be mutually edifying as well as glorifying to God. In fact, I think those are two sides of the same coin. Edifying one another brings glory to God. Praising God with all my heart, soul, mind, and strength should build up those around me. Tim,

Whatever circumstances you face in your life today, God is calling you to reflect his glory by being united to Christ and to other Christians." So, Bob, I'm not totally sure of where you are coming at, so correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe you are trying to say that as Christians, we ought to lead one another on to love and good deeds and in our singing, we should have sound doctrinal songs in our diet to accomplish what Paul and the Lord are saying here. As I have read from other pastor's blog sites, I have found this to be the saddest, "So if you wanna reach the tattooed I'd go through ever(y) worship song you have and take a good hard look at the lyrics. Would they make sense to who you're trying to reach? If not, bag it. And not only the lyrics, it's also what you say and how you say it during worship...We wanna be sure that the seekers never feel like they don't know the language and are therefore not in the club." I believe that is SO contrary to what the Scriptures say. I am open to clarity to my thinking on all of this. I look forward to your response to my posted comment/question. Bob-
