Let’s remember Who has overcome the world-Jesus, Himself. Faith is belief of heart, mind, soul, and strength, and the works that come from that faith.
My concern, is that Christians will forget that faith in Jesus Christ is more than words. Who is he who overcomes the world, but he who believes that Jesus is the Son of God?" And this is the victory that has overcome the world-our faith. Yes, it is scripturally based, as recorded in 1 John 5:4-5: "For whatever is born of God overcomes the world. Oh, glorious victory that overcomes the world. However, my complaint against this song is the chorus itself:įaith is the victory! Faith is the victory! His banner over us is love, our sword the Word of God… There is one phrase, in particular, that is sweet to the soul. I remember singing this hymn many times as a teenager at the small country church where I played the piano alongside the worship leader. Here are 10 Christian hymns that need to be put to rest: God is Spirit, and those who worship Him must worship in spirit and truth.” (John 4:23-24 NKJV) “But the hour is coming, and now is, when the true worshipers will worship the Father in spirit and truth for the Father is seeking such to worship Him. After all, Jesus reminded the woman at the well that the Father desires His followers to worship in Spirit and in truth. Perhaps, it’s time to put to rest a few of these hymns-not because they are “bad,” but because they simply don’t cultivate a heart of worship.
They are songs that are full of puzzling phrases that leave a person questioning rather than worshiping. However, there are hymns that simply don’t make sense, and perhaps never made sense to the average worshiper. I imagine they will outlast many of the modern worship songs we sing today, and rightfully so. They are beloved hymns with beautiful messages of faith, memorable melodies, and rich qualities.
