I was reading on a different thread and this statement was made.
1) What songs and hymns do we sing that are written in such a way as to be doctrinally incorrect? Or, in what way is the imagery forced upon the listener to understand it incorrectly?
2) What Scripture do you think shows the error in the song or hymn?
I think it helpful to understand how a commonly sung hymn or song is inaccurate and depending on the error or perception of error, explain, edit, or erase the song in or from use.
Any time songs and references to Scripture in them seem to be unclear, I like to explain them and make them relevant to the singer.
Some old hymns contain doctrinal error or encourage false images like Mansion Over The Hilltop making people think we are going to get a building like Tara.
