Thanks for the explanation. On a personal note, my church (Missouri Synod Lutheran) changed hymnals some decades back .... the beautiful, traditional liturgy was replaced with “modern” melodies and words. I have never gotten used to it - really dislike it, actually. The few times I’ve been in church where they reverted to the “old” liturgy have been wonderful services for me. Frankly, I do not attend church any more & the liturgy change is a big part of it; however, I’ve found another pastor whose sermons are more Biblical than our current pastor and that’s where I find myself worshiping these days.
Our pastor preaches through the Bible and is in Ezekiel now which is incredible. He has 50,000 a week watching in 5 services. We have 1500 per service attending because people are starving.
Lots of people walk in late since it is when people assemble during the singing. It is Biblical to fellowship with the saints.
