The Highway Forums General Discussion Open Forum "The Merger of Calvinism with Worldliness"

Instead of dismissing Dr. Masters' use of "worldly" with respect to certain forms of music as "narrow" and rooted in personal distaste, Dr. Gonzales could have addressed why Dr. Masters called such music "worldly." Instead, he simply assumes that musical genre is a matter of taste, i.e., it is adiaphora. Of course worldliness is fundamentally a heart-matter - who disputes this? But it leads to outward conformity with the ways of this world, including, for example, immodest attire or immoral music.
