Last sunday I was talking with one of the deacons at church about exclusive Psalmody. His view on it was that although the Psalms are rich material they do not take into account the new testament perspective of Christ or our future hope. The Psalms look ahead and in his opinion saw these realities rather dimly at times while many of our classic hymns using new testament perspectives/truths can capture these realities much better. Thus, he advocated a mix of psalms and hymns with the latter being sung more.
Is anyone familiar with this argument? I'd like to hear some responses.
Thanks
