Music and worship servicesChapter six - Vance Ferrell 221Ferrell says: (see Appendix K)“Earthly music and worship services not good—Linda was concernedthat Ernie’s dreams tend to downgrade the value of our efforts to worshipGod. Just about everything is bad, and nothing is told us about what canbe acceptable.”FactElder Ferrell repeats what Linda writes, without reading the context of the thirddream. Otherwise, he would have known about the music Jesus explained thatis acceptable and that is not. Please note that in the Creeping Compromisebook by Joe Crews that is available through Ernie’s website, there is a chaptercalled, “Music and Moods,” which is also helpful. You will also notice that inlater dreams, the Lord continues to show Ernie various hymns. Those areobviously what God wants us to focus on in our worship services and daily life.Ernie’s dreams say:A View of Heaven, December 10, 2006One of the things we talked about was how beautiful the music wasthat I heard in heaven. I mentioned that it was unlike anything I had everheard in our worship services on Earth. I asked Him if He enjoys themusic and worship services we have. He responded, “That is just it. Theyare your worship services not mine.” He said that some of the music wehave is inspired not by Himself, the Father or the Holy Spirit but by awhole different spirit...Pertaining to the style of music in our worship services, Jesusexplained that what we call Christian rock and praise music is anabomination to Himself and the Father. He explained that we begin ourworship services asking for the Holy Spirit to come. Why do we believethat they would be there in something that God finds an abomination. Heexplained that praise music is nothing more than repetition, a carefullydesigned instrument of worship by Satan himself.How wrong is it for us to bring the world’s popular type of music intoour body temple? How much worse is it for us to bring it into God’s holytemple?Only One Place to Be, August 18, 2007Sister M now invites the congregation to turn in the hymnal that is inthe pew in front of them and to follow along as we all strive to be“Nearer, My God, to Thee.” As Brother D begins to play the piano andSister M, the violin, a quiet reverence is felt in the sanctuary. Many pickup the hymnal and start to follow along as they play. As they start into thesecond verse, many quietly fold the hymnal and return it to the seat back.Then they kneel in prayer while the music plays. Many who wrestle withthat close walk with God are crying while in prayer.The ABC, October 24, 2007We now walk over to the CD, DVD, and music section. The Heraldpoints to the sign above the display.
