“ Even Worse, “Worship” is often misused to refer to a particular style of music : ‘first we sang a hymn ,then a praise and worship song.’ Or, ‘I like the fast praise songs but enjoy the slow worship songs the most.’ In this usage, if a song is fast or loud or uses brass instruments, its considered “praise”. But if it is slow and quiet and intimate, maybe accompanied by guitar, that’s worship.
This is a common misuse of the term “worship”.

Worship has nothing to do with the style or volume or speed of a song. God loves all kinds of music because he invented it all – fast and slow, loud and soft, old and new. You probably don’t like it all, BUT GOD DOES! If it is offered to god in spirit and truth, it is an act of worship.

Christians often disagree over the style of music used in worship, passionately defending their preferred style as the most biblical or god-honoring. But there is NO BIBLICAL STYLE! There are no musical notes in the bible; we don’t even have the instruments they used in bible times.

Frankly, the music style you like best says more about you – your background and personality – than it does about god. One ethnics groups music can sound like noise to another. BUT GOD LIKES VARIETY AND ENNJOYS IT ALL.

There is no such thing as “Christian” music; there are only Christian lyrics. It is the words that make a song sacred, not the tune. There are no spiritual tunes.id I played a song without the words, you’d have no way of knowing if it were a “Christian” song.”
