Art for Art's sake, not for the spirit's sake

Well, it didn't end up too badly. The bruises will heal:

I got some of my point across. In this day, we are seeing the Lordship of Christ, the authority of the Bible, the work of the Holy Spirit, and the universal priesthood of all believers under serious attack. There is much wandering off into bypaths and dead forests of doctrines. The elements of this world will be burned up one day, and that will include all the works of man's hands, such as 'art'. Seek the eternal. Don't put any stock in the temporal.

Art is no substitute for the work of the Holy Spirit in bringing the Lord closer to us. No substitute. A picture may tell a thousand words, but those words are dead to spiritual life. It is the Spirit that gives life, the flesh profits nothing.

Very hard to explain all of this. In time we will go after different aspects of it. Stay tuned...
