Album: Lyrical Theology, Part 2: Doxology
Theology is the study of God, and it's very important;
Doxology is an expression of praise to God;
So, the point here is that all theology should ultimately lead to doxology;
If theology doesn't lead to doxology, then we've actually missed the point of theology;
So if you have theology without doxology, you just have dead, cold orthodoxy;
Which is horrible, right?
On the other side, we have people who say: "Ugh! Forget theology; I just wanna praise!" Right?
But, if we have doxology without theology, we actually have idolatry!
Because it's just a random expression of praise; but it's not actually informed by the Truth of who God is;
So, God is concerned with both!
He's concerned with an accurate understanding of Him;
And that accurate understanding of Him, leading to a response of praise, adoration and worship towards Him;
You dig?!!
