Re: Are The Local Churches Growing?
As important as music is to worship the bible never calls it a ministry nor a spiritual gift or one of the 5 offices. It has been elevated to an importance God never intended meanwhile spiritual gifts Paul said to be important like prophesy are denied. It doesnt rate a mention by Paul in the list of spiritual gifts. Paul no where appointed worship leaders and such. No mention of roving minstrels anywhere in the new testament.
Today musicians can be found aplenty but prophets are rare.
