Not knowing and not caring what the Scripture says,
they miss the point that in their MANDATE to lead young
preachers away from sectarian into the instrumental sect, all
performance "worship" is the feminine and effeminate urge to
teach that which Jesus died to shut down: the laded burden
specificially pointing to the worship of the Scribes and
Pharisees: Jesus identified them as hypocrites by pointing to
Isaiah and Ezekiel who names speakers, singers and instrument
players. It IS A FACT: Jesus never said "thou shalt not be a
hypocrite.'

performance creates spiritual anxiesty
Tertullian understood the destructive
effect of spectacle on the human body. For instance we
discuss the creation of endorphins in the body by music or any
visual-audible performance.
Having done enough,
then, as we have said, in regard to that principal
argument, that there is in them all the taint of
idolatry-having sufficiently dealt with that,
let us now contrast the other characteristics of the show with
the things of God.
God has enjoined us to deal calmly,
gently, quietly, and peacefully with the Holy Spirit,
because these things are
alone in keeping with the goodness of His nature,
with His tenderness and sensitiveness,
"and not to vex
Him with rage, ill-nature, anger, or grief.
Well, how shall this be made to accord with the shows?
- For the show always leads to spiritual
agitation,
- since where there is
pleasure,
- there is keenness of
feeling giving
pleasure its zest;
- and where there is
keenness of feeling,
- there is rivalry
giving in turn its zest to
that.
- Then, too, where you
have rivalry,
- you have rage,
bitterness, wrath and grief."
- (Tertullian, de
Spectaculis,
Ante-Nicene, III, p. 86).
"Philodemus
considered it paradoxical that music should be regarded as
veneration of the gods while musicians were paid for performing this so-called veneration.
Again, Philodemus held as self deceptive the view that
music mediated religious ecstasy. He saw the entire condition induced by
the noise of cymbals and tambourines as a disturbance of the spirit.
He found it
significant that, on the whole, only women and effeminate men fell into this folly.
Accordingly, nothing of value could be
attributed to music; it was no more than a slave of the sensation of pleasure, which satisfied
much in the same way that food and drink did.

Jay Guin posts with approval Patrick
Mead's paper on the Cargo Cult. This is intended to sow
discord and disparage churches whom they claim reject
instruments and other errors based on TRADITION. Of
course one has to intentionally reject the Bible and most
recorded scholarship proving that even the least of us would
not do performance or what Jesus called the Hypocrites
(rhetoricians, singers and instrument players) when Jesus
Christ the "Another Comforter" comes to be Paraclete when we
"use one mind and one mouth to speak that which is written for
our learning." In fact, the TOTEM of Cain was his name
derived from a Musical Note.
A
TOTEM
In modern times, some single individuals,
not otherwise involved in the practice of a tribal religion,
have chosen to adopt a personal spirit animal helper, which
has special meaning to them, and may refer to this as a totem.
This non-traditional usage of the term is prevalent in the New
Age movement and the mythopoetic men's
movement.
The Totem of the so-called Progressives who recycle to
Babylon and Jerusalem is the Musical Instrument
and the PERFORMERS who absorb all of the "giving
heed" and therefore claim to take the place of Jesus Christ
as the sole mediator. It is inclusive with those who bear
the same Totem but exclusive of those who follow the Word as
a once for all delivered to the saints.
New Age:
It aims to create "a spirituality without borders or confining
dogmas" that is inclusive and pluralistic.
It holds to "a holistic worldview,"
Musical instruments were also totems of the Cargo Cult.
"For NONLITERATE
peoples, music often serves purposes other
than entertainment or aesthetic enjoyment. Certain wind
instruments are closely associated with the supernatural,
and their sounds connote powerful magic. Australian
Aborigines, for instance, identify the sound of a
bull-roarer with the voices of supernatural beings; for
the Plains Indians, the same sound signifies an awesome
natural phenomenon, such as thunder. Wind instruments are
often among a group's most important ritual objects, and
in some cultures they are specially venerated. The
Kamairua Indians of the Amazon rain forest keep their
giant flutes (three to four feet long), wherein SPIRITS
are believed to DWELL, in a special shrine where they are
worshiped. The flutes and drums of New Guinea
are similarly housed and worshiped.
"Not only
the shapes but also the
sounds of primitive
instruments are often rich in symbolism. The sound of the
flute, for example, is widely associated with love
magic. Among the tribes of the northeast
and Great Plains of North America, young men played the
flute to serenade young women;
in New Guinea, flutes and flute
music are connected with rites
of sexual initiation.
In some
cultures, instrument symbolism is highly developed. For
the Tucano Indians of Colombia, instrument sounds
constitute a symbolic taxonomy comprising three levels: whistling, vibration, and percussion.
The whistling of a flute
connotes sexual invitation, while vibration, represented
by such instruments as the indigenous clarinet and the
bull-roarer, symbolizes a warning or threat.
Percussive sounds
produced by drums and various rattles symbolize the uniting
of male and female. "wind instrument" Encyclopædia

Afro-America

Africans reconstructed their native drums in the New
World, preponderantly as cult instruments. Small sets
of two or, more often, three drums of graded sizes form an
integral part of Afro-American rituals and, in the
Caribbean, also of voodoo dances.
Only the skins of
sacrificial animals may be used
for membranes among Afro-Bahians in Brazil, who baptize their new drums, preferably
with "holy" water obtained from a Roman
Catholic church.
Drums in
Haiti are sacred objects and may even
represent the deity itself: as such they
receive libations. One type of bongo drum--there exist at
least four of these--has been adopted by Western rhythm
bands, as has the conga.

"The necromancer or soothsayer gained their

gods were forced to give material and sensual blessings."
Enuma Elish III.101; IV. 1-26, 91 and other Near Eastern
Manuscripts.
8.07.12 The Spirit OF
Christ denied that God commanded king, kingdom,
Temple, priests, animal sacrifices or Levites who were
SOOTHSAYERS with instrumental noise (never music).
God's true command was that the Levites
"stand in ranks" ready to execute any civillian or any
Levite who came near any "holy" thing or into any "holy"
place. They were under the Kings and Commanders of
the Army.
If you say that God commanded something He did not
command The Spirit OF Christ in Jeremiah
He calls it despising or Blasphemy.
The word "psallo" upon which
instrumental churches are built and ANTI-non instrumental
people sow discord means PLUCK: primarily a bow
string. The word never in recorded history meant
to Play a Harp much less Play a Melody upon a Harp.
To lead people into trying to silence
the mouth of the "victim" based on the PLUCKING word
with the same root as SOP further insists that The
Spirit of Christ, the inspired writers and recorded
history prior to the Disciples were TERMINALLY IGNORANT.
A
literate Holy Spirit or Paul or anyone worthy of being a
disciple of Christ given A holy spirit or A
good conscience to be able to read BLACK text on BROWN
paper would know two sets of facts:
First, since psallo never at any time or place in
recorded history MEANT more than pluck or smite a string
with your FINGERS and never with a PLECTRUM
they would know that pluck had and has absolutely no
"musical" content. That is why there is no
recorded Bible or literary example of being able to
instruct someone to pluck a string with
one word. If you tell someone PLUCK there is no telling
what would happen to you. The same is true in
English and all languages.
Second, if you want to tell someone to PLUCK an
INSTRUMENT there are compound words for
all named instruments and STYLES of plucking.
Third, you blaspheme the Spirit of Christ by saying
that:
- He was too ignorant not to use TWO words
such as PSALLO Plus A Harp.
- He was
too ignorant not to use one compound
word which meant play a harp
- He just
wanted to throw in stumble words for those who have
not been washed with water INTO the Word or
school of Christ or
- He
intentionally wanted to sow massive discord since
singing as an ACT was first imposed in the
hear 373.
Even if "psallo" meant play a harp
it could NEVER be used to justify a guitar pick, a flute
or drums
Playing the part of those
deliberately sowing discord and blaspheming, let's
assume that the Spirit of Christ or Paul or anyone prior
to 1878 was too illiterate to know about all of the
compound words. For instance.

19 To Pan:1 Muse, tell me about Pan,
the dear son of Hermes, with his goat's
feet and two horns —a lover of merry noise.
Through wooded glades he wanders with dancing nymphs
who foot it on some sheer cliff's edge, [5] calling upon
Pan, the shepherd-god, long-haired,
unkempt.... Often he courses through the glistening high
mountains, and often on the shouldered hills he speeds along
slaying wild beasts, this keen-eyed god. Only at
evening, [15] as he returns from the chase,
he sounds his
note,
playing sweet
and low on his pipes of reed:
not even she could
excel him in melody —
that bird who in
flower-laden spring pouring forth her lament utters
honey-voiced song amid the leaves....
Then all the immortals were glad in heart and Bacchic
Dionysus in especial; and they called the boy Pan
because he delighted all their hearts.

Since

to both sing AND make melody at the same time with or without an

There are many more compound words: none are used in the Bible
even by the Jacob-Cursed Levites who made noise as SOOTHSAYERS
proving that all ritualistic sacrifices or "services" there was
a horrifying need to perform EXORCISM.
6.08.12 Jay
Guin's long dissertation on a few direct commands?
Jay Guin writes long articles and throws in a proof text on
the way: Because he will not tolerate any contrary opinion
(violating the demand to give an account from the Bible) I
am forced to replay her. For instance with a lot of
"private interpretation" or further expounding (filling in
for the Spirit OF Christ) on Baptism which always argues
with Christ in the prophets, Jesus direct command, the
examples throughout the Bible and most recorded
"scholarship." Paul most often speaks in parallelism
which proof-texting misses. The only Spiritual Covenant was
made by God in Christ to Abraham. The Laws of the
Monarchy used as the patternism for the instrumentalists was
God's abandonment of Israel to the very WORSHIP promoted by
Jay and the "progressives." I posted this.
Gen 22:12 And he said,
Lay not thine hand upon the lad, neither do thou any thing
unto him: for
now I know that thou fearest God, seeing thou hast not withheld thy son,
thine only son from me.
Gen 22:16 And said, By
myself have I sworn, saith the Lord, for because thou hast done
this thing,
and hast not
withheld thy son, thine only son,
Gen 22:17 That in
blessing I will bless thee, and in multiplying I will
multiply thy seed as the stars of the heaven, and as the
sand which is upon the sea shore; and thy seed shall
possess the gate of his enemies;
Gen 22:18 And in thy
seed shall all the nations of the earth be blessed; because thou hast obeyed my
voice.
Rejection of any authority is a bad sign!

Gal. 3:22 But the
scripture hath concluded all under sin
that the promise by
faith OF JESUS CHRIST might be given to them that believe.
FAITH is the Christian System: it is the OPPOSITE of THE LAW.
People who teach FAITH ONLY are clearly not trusting in
THE FAITH but they are trusting in THEIR BELIEF which is NOT
trust because it REBELS against Christ.
Gal. 3:23 But

The LIMITS of the CENI is to teach

While there is not a command, example or remote inference
that God's "godly" people ever assembled for congregational
singing with or without instruments; and while instruments
(making noise) were NOT commanded by God for "worship", that
does not prevent a "race" of men from dedicating themselves
to forcing instruments into the School of Christ fully
intending to sow discord and cause the "owners" to cast
themselves out of their own synagogue (Paul's word for "come
together, assemble or gather, which excludes music)

own opinion to teach, the first pattern was given by Jethro

which God equates to the murder of a man.
Jesus called the Scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites and
Christ's statement in Ezekiel 33 calls them "preachers,

God did not command sacrifices or burnt offerings: that
was begun when God TURNED THEM OVER to worship the
starry host and later gave them kings in His anger and
took them away in His anger. That is why all

PARASITES.

But after ages shall thy praise record.

The winged shaft, predestin'd for the deed;
Then to the stubborn yew her strength applied,
Till the far distant horns approach'd on either side.

All of the Bible and Greek and Latin
literature identifies religious musicians as parasites and
sorcerers. All of the named "musical" instruments were
borrowed from prostitutes and warriors threatening rape and
murder if the enemy did not turn coward.
Payne insists that the Hebrew of 1
Chronicles 25:1 unambiguously identifies these leaders as
military commanders, an interpretation
favoured by several Bible translations. (Payne, p 423-4;
NASB, NIV, NKJV, NRSV, Jerusalem Bible) If military
commanders had a particular interest in the
appointment of musicians, it suggests a strong link
between music and warfare
The name of psaltery entered Christian literature
in the 3rd century B.C. translation of the Old Testament
called the Septuagint where, in the Psalms, nebel was translated psalterion. Thus, Nebuchadnezzar's idolatrous
ensemble
included the Aramic psantria. Notice, also, that the book of Psalms
has also become known as the Psalter (or psalterium), from the hymns sung with this harp. Source
Psalmos
also appears in the LXX as equivalent to the Hebrew word neginah
[5058]. This Hebrew term is used to describe a wide
variety of songs. Neginah is translated by
psalmos in Lam 3:14 (song), in Lam 5:14 (music)
and in Ps 69:12 (song). It is striking to observe
that in the LXX translation of Lam 3:14 and Ps 69:12,
psalmos, or its verbal form, is used for songs that are
not only uninspired but are in fact the product of
the wicked, even drunkards, who mocked God and His word.
The Hebrew term neginah is used elsewhere in the Hebrew
Scriptures of: the songs of the wicked, Job 30:9
(song); the inspired praise of God, Psalm 61 title
(Neginah-a song performed on a stringed instrument); and the
uninspired praisd of the Lord composed by King
Hezekiah, Is 38:20 (my songs).

I just don't know how we get around the proof-texting which
ignores that Pauls WHAT IS IS was refuting the Jews who taught
that they were JUSTIFIED by keeping the Law of Moses and
beiing circumcised. Paul's ONLY message is to say that we
are justified meaning ceremonially qualified by THE FAITH of
Jesus Christ. However, we are SAVED by obedience of the
commands of Jesus. These are laws of cause and effect because if
you "believeth not" that means "I will not comply" and proves to
Jesus that you are treacherous.

Jay
Guin The Promise of the Holy Spirit 1.09.12 Jay teaches that the
CALL is only from God and we receive The Holy Spirit as a
person or people. Apparently that guides beyond the sacred
pages. As usual we will fill in the context and define
some words to prove that Jesus returned as promised after
receiving his glorified state as The Holy Spirit: Spirit never
literally means more than wind or breath: Jesus poured out His
message once for all times. No, Alexander Campbell suggests
Alexander
Campbell and all historic scholarship
"Paul meant
such a public and sensible exhibition of it as would
commend the honesty and sincerity of the heart to every man's
conscience,
by "a
manifestation of the Spirit" he meant such an exhibition
of his presence and residence in the heart,
as would convince the understanding of all that these
spiritual men,
who professed to
have received the Holy Spirit himself,
did in truth possess
that divine agent.
From all which, may it not be inferred that a person
in the apostolic age, professing
to have received the
gift of the Holy Spirit, or the Holy Spirit himself,
without a manifestation
of it; or who was unable to display
it by some unequivocal exhibition of
it,
would have been considered
either a knave or a simpleton?
Because Marcion had some really harsh things to say about the
Old Testament and its evil God or perhaps the Devil, because
Churches of Christ understand that what the progressives think
of as the Old Testament was God's abandonment of Israel to
worship the starry host. Yet he and the progressives
(back to Babylon) insist on using the Levites as legalistic
patternism for A Musical Worship Team (The best identification
of heresy). In fact God's command after the Levites
executed 3000 of the brethren for engaging in musiucal
idolatry, God's command was that "stand in ranks" during the
not-commanded animal slaughter to EXECUTE any progressive who
was left inside the camp. The noise was SOOTHSAYING with
instrumental accompaniment and God has abandoned the
"progressives" to their fervent prayer.

church and its dominant "pastor" (self-proclaimed.)
If the assembly is Qahal, synagogue or Church of Christ in
the wilderness which never changed, then Jay and the NACC
have spread all of that discord based on the foundation of
the slaughter priests and Levites. Having
missed Genesis 49 other than to gather proof-texts they attempt
to IMPOSE what Jacob absolutely outlawed: having any dealings
with the Levites.
- No! The Levites were not commanded by God to be
"Musical Worship Ministers" during the not commanded
sacrifices and burnt offerings.
- God commanded through Moses and also by David that
they STAND IN RANKS under the king and commanders of
the army. God quarantined all godly people from the mass
slaughter of innocent animals as a Plague Stopping Exorcism
which was part of the "worship of the starry host.
- When the Burnt Offering of the goats for Israel (the
masses having defected into a musical instrument sect)
began it is clearly said to be by THE COMMAND OF DAVID
who was king and not a worship leader.
- Christ in Isaiah, Jeremiah etal said that God DID NOT
command sacrifices or offerings. To teach that this was
God's first failed attempt at a "worship ritual" manifests a
view of a Holy (wholly) Spirit God which is beyond
redemption.
- Christ--the Rock--led and fed Israel in the wilderness. He
ordained the Qahal, synagogue or church of Christ in the
wilderness.
- This was to REST from the Jacob-cursed Levi
tribe who profaned (music) the Sabbath at the temple because
they had already been abandoned to the kings whom "god gave
in His anger and took away in His anger" after they carried
out the captivity and death sentence imposed when God
sentenced them
at Mount Sinai.
- Jay
effectively calls me a liar but then will not hear the
evidence: Music in fact means "to make the lambs dumb
before the slaughter."
Acts 7:43
Yea, ye took up the tabernacle of Moloch, and the STAR
of your god Remphan,
figures
which ye made to worship them: and I will carry you away
beyond Babylon.
- If that is true then all of the groups who have made a
career out of trying to force people to adopt the Levite
Patternism, validate Christ in Isaiah 30 who shows that God
will drive His enemies into "hell" with wind, string and
percussion instruments."
The prophesying with instruments by the Levites means that they
were
SOOTHSAYERS proven by using instruments to
indimidate. We have a record of the prophets inspired by
Christ and the repudiate instruments.
The singers, instrument players and craftsmen (theater builders
and stage managers) in Revelation 18 are the same "fruits" Amos
identified. John calls them SORCERERS who had once deceived the
whole world. He says that the sorcers and liars and dogs
(fruits) will all be cast alive into the Lake of Fire.
God made it hard on the Devil (father of all musical religion
says history) whose sons SPEAK ON THEIR OWN . That is why they
cannot find a single command, example or remote inference that
God's righteous people ever assembled for "congregational
singing with instrumental accompaniment."
Says Jesus, "Doctors of the Law take away the KEY to knowledge."
That is their job, that is what they do.
JAY ATTACKS AND CLAIMS THAT THE CHURCH
IS NOT AFTER THE CHURCH IN THE WILDERNESS BUT THE
"PASSOVER."
Indeed,
the best evidence is that the assembly is built on the Passover
tradition, if anything, which included … singing. And
probably dancing
The
Lord's Supper was instituted during the Feast of
Unleavened Bread which came "after supper." The Passover
was only once a year and was a family ceremony and never a
public ritual with singing and dancing. Jesus SPAKE A hymn
and went out.
Paul
defines the musical idolatry at Mount Sinai as demon
worship. The Book of Enoch and Romans 1 etal define
this fall from Grace for which there was no redemption.

STEPHEN
REPUDIATES THE JAY GUIN THESIS
Jay
Guin: Indeed, the
best evidence is that the assembly is built on the Passover
tradition, if anything, which included … singing. And
probably dancing (it certainly did at a later date). But neither singing nor dancing
is commanded in the Torah.. See more below.
Jay is
feeding off Al Maxey who majors in claiming that events
not commanded by God were imposed by humans. The
conclusion is that we can add instruments (to the school
of the Word) and not get burned. Both are false:
indeed some Jews hold that the synagogue existed as long
as God had something to reveal to mankind through chosen
prophets.
Jay denies
what Stephen and recorded history proves: "come together,
assemble, gather" are all synagogue words.
The synagogue OUTLAWS any "vocal or instrumental
rejoicing."
Acts 7:38
This is he, that was in the church
[ekklesia-synagogue] in the wilderness with the
angel [Christ] which spake to him in the mount
Sina, and with our fathers: who received the lively oracles

And they made a calf in those days, and offered sacrifice
unto the idol,
and rejoiced in
the works of their own hands.

these are, for each man, his Fury, urging him to slay his
fellow citizens, to serve the tyrant, to help put down the
democracy. For such men reck not of disgrace, nor yet of
punishment to come, but are beguiled by the pleasures
they expect if they succeed. Therefore, fellow citizens,
remove from among us such natures, for so shall you turn
the aspirations of the young toward virtue.

1 190 Many men of this sort you could find
who have overthrown cities and have
fallen into the greatest misfortunes themselves.
For you must not imagine, fellow citizens, that the
impulse to wrong doing is from the gods; nay, rather, it
is from the wickedness of men; nor that ungodly men are,
as in tragedy, driven and chastised by the Furies1
with blazing torches in their hands.

you received, as a snow-shower of gold in the middle of
the night, the greatest of the gods, when he stood in the
doorway of Amphitryon, and then went in to the wife to
beget Heracles?

It is not
possible that any Bible student would not have asked: What
does that mean.? All true scholars and the Jewish
Encyclopedia proves that the Temple was built (not by
God's command) on Mount Moriah where God taught that
He had aready PROVIDED for all such sacrifices.
Those who try to impose instruments subconsciously or
unconsciously USE the abandoned Levites as their only
PATTERNISM for making music when Christ was and is always
speaking ONLY to those who attend ekklesia or synagogue: A
School (only) of the Word of Christ (only). Peter
wrote to MARK as false teachers anyone who did not teach
that left memory of Jesus of Nazareth proving as a human
that the curse of the sacrificial system COULD be
defeated.
I noted that
the Levites gained their infant burning patternism from
Egypt.

Yea, ye took up the tabernacle of Moloch, and the STAR

AIDS: A Holy Convocation which means to rest, read and
rehearse"
In this passage ALL of the foundation of those imposing
instruments as
THEIR RIGHT is repudiated by
Stephen: He got murdered for telling the kings or queens
that they had no clothes. If you missed the musical
idolatry fork in the road and all of the prophets, and continue
to SELL YOUR BODY as mediator in song or made up sermon Paul
says you corrupt the word meaing "selling your learning at
retail" which also identifies adultery or prostitution. Tyre and
Jerusalem are PARALLEL: Hiram built both temples and "Lucifer"
was worshipped at Tyre.
Isaiah 23:15 And it shall come to pass in that day,
that Tyre shall
be forgotten seventy years, according to the days of one king:
after the end of seventy
years shall Tyre sing as an harlot. meaning
Isaiah 23:16 Take an [1] harp,
go about the city, thou harlot
that hast been forgotten;
make sweet [2] melody,
[3] sing many
songs, that thou mayest be remembered.
Isaiah 23:17 And it shall come to pass after the end of
seventy years,
that the LORD will visit
Tyre, and she shall turn to her hire,
and shall commit
fornication with all the kingdoms of the world upon the
face of the earth.
Isaiah
23.16 sume citharam circui civitatem meretrix oblivioni tradita bene cane frequenta canticum ut memoria tui sit
It always takes THREE WORDS to define Playing + Harp + Sing;
then you need something to sing and God didn't provide any of
that.
Stephen
said that the Temple (etal) was NOT commanded.
Acts 7:41 And they made a calf in those days,
and offered sacrifice
unto the idol,
and rejoiced in the works
of their own hands.
The Egyptian Opis (Apis)
and others which Israel worshipped at Mount Sinal were
worshipped throughout the area. "In preference to all other
hymns these choirs generally sang the so-called epiphany
hymns,which were intended to invite
the gods to appear. Plutarch wrote:
Why do the women of Elis call
upon God in song to approach them
with the bull's foot? Their song is the following:
Come, Dionysus,
Hero,
into the holy temple of Elis,
together with the Graces
come violently
into the temple with the bull's foot!
Then
they sang twice at the end: "Sacred Bull!" (Johannes
Quasten, Music & Worship in Pagan and Christian
Antiquity, p. 76)
"For
nonliterate
peoples, music often
serves purposes other than
entertainment or aesthetic enjoyment. Certain wind
instrumentare closely associated
with the supernatural, and
their sounds connote powerful magic.
Australian Aborigines, for instance, identify the sound of a
bull-roarer with thevoices of
supernatural beings; for the Plains Indians, the same sound
signifies an awesome natural phenomenon, such as thunder.
Wind instruments are often among a group's most important
ritual objects, and in some cultures they are specially
venerated. The Kamairua Indians of the Amazon rain forest
keep their giant flutes (three
to four feet long), wherein spirits are
believed to dwell, in a
special shrine where they are worshiped. The flutes and drums of New
Guinea are similarly housed and worshiped.
"Wind
instruments
in primitive cultures also serve nonreligious functions. In
New Guinea, bamboo trumpets were
once played
to frighten an enemyduring
battle and
to alert a village that the victorious
warriors were coming home with
the corpses of
the foes.
"Conch-shell

Jay Guin Forum
I’ve allow this comment
through because you’ve succinctly explained your
position. Let’s see if it’s true.
The synagogue is defined in
Numbers
10 for holding A Holy Convocation
“Holy convocation” does not
appear in Num 10, but it does
appear several places in the Torah. The Greek is
that is, “holy assembly” or epiklEtos hagia.
It’s not the same word used for “synagogue” or
“church.” And Num 10:10 does
indeed describe a festival that is elsewhere
referred to as a “holy convocation.”
The command for that festival
is for a ram’s horn (or trumpet) to be blown, it’s
true. But the Psalms make this statement –
1 Sing aloud to God
our strength;
shout for joy to the God of Jacob!
2 Raise a song; sound the tambourine,
the sweet lyre with the harp.
3 Blow the trumpet at the new moon,
at the full moon, on our feast day.
This is plainly a reference
to the use of singing and instruments during the
feast day of Num 10:10. And
Numbers
10:10 refers to the blowing of the horn!
But the Psalm plainly adds to the “silence” by
allowing singing and instruments!!
Thus, it’s quite impossible
to treat Num 10:10 as
limiting a “holy convocation” to just study and
trumpet calls. David himself calls on his readers
to sing and play other instruments — because it’s
a celebration!
The synagogue was not
invented by the Prophets, but is an invention of
man. There was no singing or instruments
until long after the First Century, but nowhere in
the Bible is the Christian assembly said to be
built on the synagogue.
Indeed, the best evidence is
that the assembly is built on the Passover
tradition, if anything, which included … singing.
And probably dancing (it certainly did at a later
date). But neither singing nor dancing is
commanded in the Torah.
They were added. As were the
cups of wine that Jesus sanctified. It was
a meal, and prayers were said, hymns sung, and the
Jews celebrated as Middle Easterners celebrate.
And, of course, there is
explicit NT references to singing in the assembly.
Therefore, to suggest that Num 10:10
demonstrates that we cannot sing in the assembly
is absurd and utterly devoid of scriptural
support. In fact, the evidence suggests
that adding to God-ordained rituals is
permitted.

OUR RESPONSE TO SEVERAL PROOFS THAT THE
PROGRESSIVES DO NOT KNOW THE STORY LINE.
Jay Guin: Indeed, the best
evidence is that the assembly is built on the Passover
tradition, if anything, which included … singing.
And probably dancing (it certainly did at a
later date). But
neither singing nor dancing is commanded in the Torah.
No, after the non-commanded burnt goats
accompanied by the INSTRUMENTS COMMANDED BY DAVID, the Levites
sang WHILE the following Passover: the "silence" omits
instruments and the Passover was a FAMILY AFFAIR and was Roast
Lamb and that is exactly how Jesus and the apostles celebrated
the LAST passover.
The
Jews celevrated; this was the Babylonian substitute
and you remember that Esther reversed the charges and got
the Babylonians drunk so they TURNED on one another. I have
covered that in a rebuttal
of Al Maxey's false claim that the synagogue was a human
invention.
Jesus observed the Biblical
Passover which was to be KILLED and ROASTED.
AFTER SUPPER the "feast of unleavened bread was merged."
The fifth cup was unfermented as the MARK that the
Forerunner had already come.
Maxey
is ignorant of the Word--strongly delusioned
He is
confessing that instruments are SIN but grace will cover
up the smell.
Jay Guin:
They were added. As
were the cups of wine that Jesus sanctified. It
was a meal, and prayers were said, hymns sung,
and the Jews celebrated as Middle Easterners
celebrate.
Jesus repudiated all of the additions such as
getting drunk on wine at the Babylonian Passover.
Matthew 26 They Sung a Hymn and Went out
You cannot sing psalms in a tuneful: they SPOKE one Hallel
hymn and WENT OUT. The Christian Connexion split over
whether to end the services with a pray or a
psalm. Repeting the hallel not connected to the Passover
was considered blashemy.
Matthew 26:26 And as they were eating, Jesus took
bread, and blessed it, and brake it,
and gave it to the
disciples, and said, Take, eat; this is my body.
John 13:27 And after the sop Satan
entered into him. Then said Jesus unto him, That thou
doest, do quickly.

Matthew
26.30 When they had 'hymned" they went
out to the Mount of Olives.
I believe that the Latin agrees with the common
understanding that "singing was using the normal inflections
of the human voice." Especially when you are confessing God
the Father by the use of a hymn or prayer which gives HIM
the glory. Mature males then and probably now do not agree
to get together to appease God with singing.
GOD GAVE JESUS THE WORD WITHOUT
"METER" AS THE WORD IS OFTEN TRANSLATED.
There is no Biblical text (that which is commanded) which is
metrical. That had to wait of John Calvin's permission
to REWRITE some Psalms (only) to a few melodies to be sung in
UNISON (only).

Jay Guin: The synagogue was not invented by the
Prophets, but is an invention of man. There was no
singing or instruments until long after the First Century,
but nowhere in the Bible is the Christian assembly
said to be built on the synagogue.
Indeed,
the best evidence is that the assembly is built on
the Passover tradition, if anything, which
included … singing. And probably dancing
(it certainly did at a later date).
The TEXT was inspired by Christ the Rock to
quarantine the godly people FROM anything you can use as a
pattern to presume to add to the Word. Al Maxey has
been the main misteacher claiming that the synagogue was ADDED
by man without authority and God didn't burn the. Therefore,
WE have the authority to ADD instruments to the School
(only) of Christ (only). Of course that is deliberate lying
TO CHRIST and ABOUT Christ and Jeremiah 23 Christ calls
that blasphemy. If you defend a blasphemer just
because he spreads hate against those who will not PROFANE
the assembly, you are a Goner.
Acts
15:21 For Moses of old time hath in every city them that preach him, being read in the synagogues every sabbath day.
God ABANDONED Israel to the worship of
the starry host as Jay let me post.
The Levites were under the king and commanders
of the army.
The Levites were commanded to EXECUTE you if you got
NEAR any of the horrors of the sacrificial system.
You cannot add ANYTHING which
diminishes teaching the Word as it has been taught
None of the Babylonish antics of that
ABANDONED monarchy trumped the ONLY Spiritual Covenant made
by Christ with Abraham.
- Synagogue was not an institution but a
set-time-place.
- The Holy Convocation was
held on the first and sixth days during festivals.
- This holy convocation defined as Reading
and Rehearsing the Word of God came to be every
REST day.
- Numbers 10 defines the
difference between the Alarm (vocal or
instrumental rejoicing or elevated speech) from the quiet
assembly for instruction only. That is how Jesus exampled
it and commanded it with the “ekklesia” word for reading,
discussing and summarizing something from a HIGHER
authority.
No historical scholar ever missed that by
missing Acts 7 which repudiated temple as a HOUSE for God.
Every seven years, that is in the year
of release, during the feast of Tabernacles, the
Law was to be read before all the people
according to the command found in Deut., xxxi, 10. But
this enactment was probably soon found to be
impracticable; and thus the Jewish authorities arranged
to read on every sabbath, commencing with the
sabbath after the feast of Tabernacles in one year of
release and ending with the feast of Tabernacles in the
next year of release, a portion of the Law so calculated
that the whole Pentateuch would be read through in
seven years. This would in some way the commandment
be fulfilled. Some time later, the Jews of Palestine
lengthened the sections for each sabbath in such a
manner that he entire Law could be read in three years (Talm.
Babyl. Megillah, 29b)
The Kingdom of Christ makes that the Prophets
and Apostles Christ being the source of both which
REPUDIATES all instrumental music in any holy place.
Isaiah was the ASSIGNED text already
opened when Jesus stood up to read and then decently sat
down. No preaching, no singing in the synagogue.
It is easy to miss “synagogue” as Church
beginning the wilderness because people look up the word
synagogue. Jesus “came together” or synagogued with the
disciples two first days in a row.
When Paul uses “come together, assemble or
gather” he always uses forms of the “synagogue” word. James
also uses “translate.”
The godly people never did “worship IN the
Temple.” John Calvin defined the synagogue in Numbers
10 Latin Con-grego Congrego Academia
“The church #1577 ekklesia –
assembly, called out ones, set apart ones,
congregation; in Hebrew this word is #6951 qahal
(kahal) – a “synagogue” (E. W. Bullinger,
Commentary on Revelation, p. 165-166), an assemblage,
congregation, company from the root #6950 qahal
meaning specifically a coming together, an assembling, a
convocation, congregation; this word is used
mostly for religious purposes (see William
Wilson’s Old Testament Word Studies, p. 92)
“The LXX uses the word ekklesia to
translate the Hebrew qahal. Qahal means to call,
to assemble, and the noun form means a congregation or
assembly. Solomon is called koheleth the Preacher,
translated by the LXX ekklesiastes. The earliest known
occurrence of the word is found in Job 30:28,
‘I cried in the congregation’. In the books of the law,
qahal is rendered by the Greek word sunagoge,
showing that the synagogue is the beginning of the New
Testament church. Stephen in his speech which ended
in his martyrdom referred to the history of Israel, and
dwells for considerable length upon the one great leader
Moses, saying in Acts 7:38:
Church.
‘This is he, that was
in the CHURCH in the wilderness with the angel which spake
to him in the mount Sinai’.
The people of Israel, looked upon as ‘a
called-out assembly’ were ‘the Church’ of that period. By
Charles H. Welch
JAY GUIN REFUSED TO POST
THE CLEAR BIBLICAL PROOF: EKKLESIA IS SYNAGOGUE
But, he continued to allow
the instrumentalists to post along with others who know
not to provoke.
KEN
PROVOKED JAY WITH
Jay I have responded where I can
exand. There will be no shame in confessing that you
followed Al Maxey to do evil.
If the church is still the qahal–ekklesia
And it is a School (only) of Christ in the prophets
and apostles.
And that vocal or instrumental rejoicing is outlawed
to guard against the lawless
And the NACC founded with the DNA to try to force
everyone to Bow to Baal
Then you have blasphemed the Holy Spirit of Christ Who
spoke through the prophets to forbid “speaking” your own
words on the rest day.
I have picked on you because you
have been led into being the most vocal.
I believe that is my “assignment.” I hope that has
instructed some of the more than 18000 congregations
only 21 which have been deceived by being handled by the
NACC.
To say that churches of Christ
were ever unioned in any sense with the Disciples of
Christ is really psychological violence
trying to intimidate. It is a lie and they have had less
success than Judas whose prophesied bag was for
“carrying the mouthpieces of wind instruments.” He was a
thief and Jesus dispatched him with the SOP which has
the same root meaning as PSALLO.
To moderate my response to
your charges is NOT manly or honest.

Johannes
Quasten. In Music
and
Worship
in Pagan and Christian Antiquity, beginning on page 41 He uses
many of the church Fathers and Classical resources we also
rely upon:
"Philodemus
considered it paradoxical that music should be regarded
as veneration of the gods while musicians were paid for performing this so-called veneration.
Again, Philodemus held as self deceptive the view that
music mediated religious ecstasy. He saw the entire condition induced by
the noise of cymbals and tambourines as a disturbance of the spirit.
He found it
significant that, on the whole, only women and
effeminate men fell into this folly.
Accordingly, nothing of value could be
attributed to music; it was no more than a slave of the sensation of pleasure, which
satisfied much in the same way that food and drink did.
"Now, many a man from the false religions, which are not ashamed of criticising what is noble, will ask: how can there be
a feast without carousing and overeating, without the pleasant company of hosts
and guests, without quantities of unmixed wine, without richly set tables
and highly stacked provisions of everything that pertains
to a banquet, without pageantry and jokes,
bantering and
merry-making to the accompaniment of flutes and citharas, the sound of drums and cymbals and other effeminate and frivolous music of every king,
enkindling
unbridled
lusts
with the help of the sense of hearing. For in and through the
same [pleasures] those persons openly seek their joy, for what true joy is
their they do not know.
JAY
CONTINUES TO TEACH A PROOF-TEXT DOGMA
JAY: (1Co
14:26 ESV) 26 What then, brothers? When you come
together, each one has a hymn, a lesson, a revelation, a
tongue, or an interpretation. Let all things be done for
building up.
JAY THEN "CUT OFF MY RESPONSE TO BE MODERATED." He
didn't repent for ignoring the proof that the Qahal, synagogue
or Church in the wilderness was RESTRICTED to Rest, Reading and
Rehearsing the Word.
IF YOU UNDERSTAND THAT CHRIST COMMANDED THAT DISCIPLES BE
TAUGHT WHAT HE COMMANDED TO BE TAUGHT THEN YOU CANNOT
HALLUCINATE INSTRUMENTS.
BUILDING UP IS EDUCATION WITH THAT WHICH IS WRITTEN FOR OUR
LEARNING.
I Understand: if church is ekklesia or synagogue then you are

what edifies or EDUCATES.

But the first and

Nic. Eth. 1105b.20 A state of the soul
is either （l） an emotion, （2） a capacity,
or （3） a disposition; virtue therefore must
be one of these three things. [2]
By the emotions, I mean desire, anger, fear,
confidence, envy, joy, friendship, hatred, longing,
jealousy, pity; and generally those states of
consciousness which are accompanied by pleasure or
pain.
The capacities are the faculties in virtue
of which we can be said to be liable to the
emotions, for example, capable of feeling anger or
pain (or fear) or pity.
The dispositions are the formed states of
character in virtue of which we are well or ill
disposed in respect of the emotions; for instance,
we have a bad disposition in regard to anger if we
are disposed to get angry too violently or not
violently enough, a good disposition if we
habitually feel a moderate amount of anger; and
similarly in respect of the other emotions.
[3] Now the virtues
and vices are not emotions because
we are not pronounced good or bad according to our
emotions, but we are according to our virtues
and vices; nor are we either praised or
blamed for our emotions—a man is not praised for
being frightened or angry, nor is he blamed for
being angry merely, but for being angry in a certain
way—

The Greeks say, that among them are five
dialects-the Attic, Ionic, Doric, Aeolic, and
the fifth the Common; and that the languages of the barbarians,
which are innumerable, are not called dialects, but
tongues.
Plato attributes a dialect also to the gods, forming this conjecture mainly from dreams and
oracles, and especially
from demoniacs, who do
not speak their own
language or dialect,
but that of the demons who have
taken possession of them.
And he called the myths
themselves "children," as if the progeny of those, wise in their own conceits among the Greeks, who had but little insight meaning by the
"hoary studies" the truth which was possessed by the barbarians,
dating from the highest antiquity. To which expression he
opposed the phrase "child
fable," censuring the
mythical character of the attempts of the moderns, as,
like children, having nothing of age in them, and
affirming both in common-their fables and their
speeches-to be puerile.
Brethren, be not children in understanding: howbeit in

The role of the elder is to "teach that which has been taught"

8.30.11 The Churches of
Christ was never "unioned" with the Disciples of Christ /
Christian Churches. Don't be duped. All church census began
in 1906 and the Churches of Christ denied that they could be
counted in the Disciples of Christ/Christian Church
denomination. Refusing to be counted by the Disciples
was no more sectarian than refusing to be counted with the
Baptists or Methodists. What became the Christian
Church did not begin to sect out of the Disciples until a
decade later--1927--and still fellowshipped the Disciples
until 1971.
Jay Guin, Rick Atchley, Chris Seidman etal follow the
pattern of the NACC to use the Goat holocaust in 2
Chronicles 29 to say that God commanded "instrumental
praise." This one-time event called exorcism where the
Levites performed as Soothsayers with instrumental
accompaniment is their example.
Christ in the Prophets call the Civil-Military-Clergy
complex robbers and parasites and DENIES that God commanded
sacrifices or burnt offerings. He also warns about the Lying
Pen of The Scribes: The Scribes were the ones Jesus called
Hypocrites where Christ in Ezekiel and Isaiah names
Speakers, Singers and instrument players. These were the
MARKS that people had no intention of hearing and obeying
the Word of God.
The Levites made the
same "making the lambs dumb before the slaughter" noise just
before and just after Hezekiah's plague stopping
exorcism.
Read
2 Chronicle 33 to prove that the Levites
making noise was the PATTERNISM of burning infants.
Paul
marked the sin beyond redemption at Mount Sinai as the
worship of DEMONS.
Porphyry The Iamblichus
Of such a character are some of the
animals of Egypt, and in the same manner, the human being
everywhere is sacred.12 Some of the consecrated victims,
however, make the familiar relationship more conspicuous, so
far as they affect the analysis in respect to the kindred and
more sacred origin of the primitive elements with the Superior
(divine) causes. This being accomplished, the benefits which
are imparted from it are more perfect.12. In other words,
likely to be a victim at the altar.
"As Manetho related, they were used in archaic times to burn
living
men in the city of Ilithyia styling them Typhonian." Ashmes,
who expelled the Hyk-sos rulers, put an end to the custom. It
existed in Asiatic countries, where Semitic worships
existed, and even the Hebrews seem not to have been an
exception 14.
Porphyry and others of the philosophers of that period
declared distinctly that the sacrifices of living creatures
were
not for the gods at all,
but
for daemons and the lower orders of spiritual essences.
Indeed, their sentiments were considered
as evidence of a hostility to Judaism. In archaic
times, and even in many centuries of the historical period, human
victims were immolated, and the Hebrew writings
seem to recognize the custom (Leviticus xxvii, 28, 29; Judges
xi, 30-40; Micah, vi, 7).
Plutarch denounced this practice,
and
declared his belief that there was never a god that
required it,
but
it was only intended to avert and appease the
malice and rancor of evil spirits.
The
slaughter of hogs at the festivals of Adonis, Osiris
and Demites
seems to have been of the latter character, as swine were
abhorred in Oriental countries.
The Hyksos entering Egypt.
Is it predestinated
that suddenly led by the agents of the NACC a hostile
attack has been mounted against the ANTI-instrumentalists
who were "birthed" preaching "unity" but using all of
the mentions of an instrument to now say that God COMMANDS the
use of instruments and you are disobedient and worthy of attack
if you don't confirm or conform.
This was also the meaning of burning the goats begun after Nadab
and Abihu when God imposed the day of Atonement and demanded
that the scapegoat be an offering to the DEVIL.
When false preachers COMMAND the use of instrumental music by
the command of "a" spirit, they may not realize it but by God's
will to those strongly deluded thy may be trying to delay being
cast alive into the lake of fire: there to be burned just the
way infants were burned by the Jews while trying to DISPEL the
evil spirits now hovering over the "worship service" like hungry
flies.
The Disciples /
Christian Churches were the first to say that GOD
COMMANDED INSTRUMENTAL WORSHIP in the Old Testament
and since He has not changed the Law, they say it is still
acceptable to use instrumental music in what is described
solely as "A School of the Word of Christ" as Jesus
commanded when He sent preachers OUT.
Those willing to sow massive discord CANNOT FIND any
negative connection to music in the presence of God. It was
musical idolatry at Mount Sinai which was a sin without
redemption. The Levites used as the patternism for the
instrumental sectarians volunteered to slaughter 3,000 of
their brethren who fell into musical idolatry. The Levites
then lost their inheritance and were commanded to "stand
guard" before any presumed holy thing or place. If one
not of the tribe of Levi or Levites not on duty came near or
in any holy thing or place they were "strangers" and the
Levites were the Execution Ministers of the not-commanded
sacrificial system. The fact that under the King and
Commandersof the Army assigned the Levites to make a great,
terrorizing sound during animal sacrifices did not make them
a legalistic petternism for the heresy of "musical worship
teams." In fact by word definition of "prophesying"
they SOOTHSAYED accompanied with INSTRUMENTAL NOISE.
The "levitical" sounds were always the prelude to a "burnt
offering" and therefore, the speakers, singers and
instrument players in Revelation 18 performed SORCERY with
INSTRUMENTAL ACCOMPANIMENT.
Strange: Paul told the Jews in 2 Corinth (ch 3) that
they wouldl not be able to read BLACK text on BROWN paper until they
converted or were baptized into Christ. Each
study doing "Word excavating" brings forth a flood of new
information.
- Rich Atchley,
Jay Guin etal use all of the mentions of "instruments"
as authority for their use in The School of Christ (the
command of Christ and understood by the Campbells and
all scholars).
- Most of these
"mentions" relate to the Sacrificial system of people
abandoned to worship the Starry host on their way to
Babylon. Christ says that God did not command sacrifices
or burnt offerings while Rick Atckley says that God even
commanded his church to use the Levites as authority.
- Never once are
instruments related to "congregational" worship
which was in the synagogues: never iINSIDE the
Temple.
- Over and over
musical instruments are connected to the holocaust
or being burned up in fire: Instruments also
signal making war or rebellion.
- One wonders if
this is not the strong delusions Paul
warned about marked by lying wonders which are religious
rituals using all of the arts and crafts Christ defined
as HYPOCRITES naming preachers, singers
and instrument players. The Millstone was
a pipe or flute based on it being "perforated" or
polluted and made a piping sound which announced where
the grinders/prostitues could be found.
Rick
Atchley-Chris Seidman: The Levites were commanded
to
EXECUTE anyone who came near any holy place during
the slaughter of innocent animals which were NOT commanded by
God. He says, and Jay Quin posts Rick Atchley, "
How we
seduced your children" to violate
all of the direct commands of god.
They
never heard the sermons we heard.
They never heard the rationale for a cappella
music.
We sent them to youth rallies and Church
of Christ events
with some of the finest
Christian bands in the world.
Well, we discipled
the children of those progressive churches
for a whole
generation to grow past us Boomers.
They never
heard the sermons we heard.
They never
heard the rationale for a cappella
music.
We sent them to youth rallies and Church
of Christ events with some of the finest Christian
bands in the world. We discipled our children to
leave our Movement!
They’re
not
leaving the kingdom of God, and I’m not saying
that — so please hear me say, I’m not placing the
health of the Movement above the kingdom of God
— I want my kids to love Jesus, but I do think that
Churches need to understand.
Isn't this PREDESTINED when Jesus says that the kingdom DOES NOT
COME to "religious observations" or what they call a "worship
service." All or most believe that God commanded instrumental
worship and CHANGED HIS MIND. No one who believes that is
fit to be WAGED out of the widow's purse.
THIS IS A PATTERNISM AS OLD AS LUCIFER
OR APOLLYON.
There is nothing which justifies
deliberate deception:
from the Jubilee onward we understood that the object was to
leave the older people behind. That would not be too bad but
anyone who would play
Machiavelli cannot possibly read
BLACK
TEXT on
BROWN PAPER (2 Cor
3). It is clear that the hireling-changelings make no attempt to
use the Word as it is written: they don't need to with a large
dose of spiritual deception in high places and intimidating
those they are pledged to serve.
READING THE BIBLE AT A HIGHER LEVEL OF MAKING SERMON OUTLINES
PROVES THAT DESTROYING THE CHURCH IN FAVOR OF RADICALIZING THE
"KINGDOM" IS PROPHETIC OF ALL PERIODS. The Book of
Jude quotes The Book of Enoch who tells FOR WHOM God will come
to execute vengeance on the violent men:
THE SECOND THOUSAND YEARS: YâReD TO
THE FLOOD.
Of the Transmission of the Art of Playing the Harp, that is to say of Music and Singing and Dancing.
Yôbâl (Jubal) and
Tôbalkin (Tubal-Cain), the two brethren, the sons of
Lamech, the blind man, who killed Cain, invented and made
all kinds of instruments of music.
- Jôbâl made reed instruments, and harps, and flutes, and whistles,
- and the devils went and dwelt inside
them.
- When men blew
into the pipes, the devils sang
inside them,
- and
sent out sounds from inside them.
Tôbalkîn made Fol. 12a, col. 2 cymbals, and sistra, and tambourines (or drums). And
lasciviousness and fornication increased among the
children of Cain, and they had nothing to occupy them
except fornication--now they had no obligation to pay
tribute, and they had neither prince nor governor--and
eating, and drinking, and lasciviousness, and drunkenness,
and dancing and singing to
instruments of music,
and the wanton sportings of the devils, and the laughter
which affordeth pleasure to the devils, and the sounds
of the furious lust of men neighing after women. See Enoch
and Second Peter
See the same pattern in Romans
And Satan, finding
his opportunity in this work of error, rejoiced
greatly, because thereby he could compel the sons of Seth to come down from that holy
mountain.
There they had been
made to occupy the place of that army of angels that fell with
Satan, there they were beloved by God, there they were
held in honour by the angels, and were called "sons of
God," even as the blessed David saith in the psalm, "I have said
Fol. I b, col. I, Ye are gods, and all of you sons
of the Most High." Ps. 82:6
GOD standeth in the congregation
of the mighty;
he judgeth
among the gods. Psalm 82:1
How long will ye
judge unjustly,
and accept
the persons of the wicked? Selah.
Psalm 82:2
Defend the poor
and fatherless: do justice to the afflicted
and needy. Psalm 82:3
Deliver
the poor and needy: rid them out of the
hand of the wicked. Psalm 82:4
They know not,
neither will they understand;
they walk
on in darkness: all the foundations of the earth
are out of
course. Psalm 82:5
I have said, Ye are gods; and all of you are
children of the most High. Psalm 82:6
But ye shall
die like men, and fall like one of the princes.
Psalm 82:7
THE CHANGE MOVEMENT DERIVED FROM
GRAMSCI, LEBON, Machiavelli, HITLER ETAL. They
depend upon the fact that by REFUSING to teach you, you don't
know that Jesus told you
NOT to go to any of these
Mass
Rally's. Ezekiel calls them workshops of evil where
prophets go to steal words one from another to return and SELL
them.
"The mass meeting is also necessary for the
reason that in it the individual, who at first while
becoming a supporter of a young movement,
feels lonely and easily succumbs to the fear
of being alone, for the first time gets the picture of a larger
community, which in most people has a strengthening,
encouraging effect.
The same man, within a company or a
battalion, surrounded by all his comrades, would set out
on an attack with a lighter heart than if left entirely on
his own. In
the crowd he always feels somewhat sheltered, even if a thousand
reasons actually argue against it.
But the community of the great demonstration not only strengthens the
individual, it also unites and helps to create an esprit de corps. The man who is exposed to
grave tribulations, as the first advocate of a new
doctrine in his factory or workshop,
absolutely needs that
strengthening which lies in the conviction of being a member and fighter
in a great comprehensive body.
And he obtains an impression of this body
for the first time in the mass demonstration. When from his little workshop
or big factory, in which he feels very small,
he steps for the first time into a mass
meeting and has thousands and thousands of people
of the same opinions around him, when, as a seeker, (Als Suchender.' A Wagnerian phrase, which Hitler was
apparently determined to use at all costs)
he is swept away by three or four thousand
others into the mighty
effect of suggestive intoxication and enthusiasm,
when the visible success and agreement of
thousands confirm to him the rightness of the new
doctrine and for the first time arouse doubt in
the truth of his previous conviction -
then
he himself has succumbed to the magic
influence of what we designate as 'mass
suggestion.'
The will, the longing, and also the power
of thousands are accumulated in every
individual. The man who enters such a meeting
doubting and wavering leaves it inwardly reinforced:
he has become
a link in the community.
The National Socialist movement must never
forget this and in particular
it must never let itself be influenced by
those bourgeois
s
who know
everything
better,
but who nevertheless have gambled away a great state including their own
existence and the rule of their class."
SEE HOW VIOLENT
MEN TAKE THE KINGDOM BY VIOLENCE
Jesus said that God
HIDES Himself from the
wise:
Sophists are preachers, singers, instrument players. The JOKE
God plays to make them into a
joke is that the Kingdom
of GOD will
NOT be there while people are performing
"worship services" or religious services." Using rhetoric
or music is always identified as "enchantment" or "sorcery." The
intention of sermonizing beyond the text intends to put the FULL
power of the preacher into assemblying the Words of Christ into
a format he believes is magical and warrants his "seeing
godliness as a means of financial gain." Corrupting the word is
selling learning at retail: that is why the command is to teach
that which has been taught. He intends to tamper with your
delicate mind to make the unbelievable believable. That is why
using external means to
inculcate an opinion is EXTREME
PSYCHOLOGICAL VIOLENCE. Charles
Spurgeon looked for a word to define the lowest ethical standing
of a man who would be paid by one congregation and believe or
teach something contrary. Even Judas found a solution.
A heretic
is someone who chooses to CARRY AWAY
something that belongs to another. That includes
the "church house" and the church famnily built by
others. You don't ever have to use STEALTH to teach
the Word of God.
-Plato
Athenian
Laws [884a] Next after cases of outrage we shall state
for cases of violence one universally inclusive
principle of law, to this effect:--
No one shall carry or drive off anything
which belongs to others,
nor shall he use any of his neighbor's goods
unless he has gained the consent of the owner;
for from such action proceed all the evils above
mentioned--past, present and to come.
Of the rest, the most grave
are the licentious and outrageous acts of
the young; and outrages offend most gravely when
they are directed against sacred things, and they
are especially grave when they are directed against objects which are public as
well as holy, or partially public,
as being shared in by the members of a tribe or
other similar community.
Second, and second in point of gravity, come offences
against sacred objects and tombs that are private;
[885a] As
to temple-robbing, whether
done
by
open
violence
or secretly..." No one who
believes, as the laws prescribe, in the existence of the
gods has ever yet done an
impious deed
voluntarily,
or uttered a lawless word: he that acts so is in one or
other of these three conditions of mind—
either he does not
believe in what I have said;
or,
secondly,
he believes that the gods exist, but have no care for men;
or, thirdly, he
believes that they are
easy to win over when bribed by
offerings and prayers
Cf.Plat. Rep. 364b ff.
For as it is, this and such as this is the account of them
we hear from those who are reputed the best of
poets,
orators,
seers,
priests, and
thousands upon thousands of others; and consequently most of
us,
instead of seeking to
avoid wrong-doing,
do the wrong and
then try to make it good
They call it Grace-Centered
When
people impose or USE something offensive to the owners you
are a heretic or sectarian. When you impose music AND
deliberately sow discord you have done two things God says
He HATES. When you force people to split with their real and
church family in order that a few favorites have a place to
blaspheme God it is hard to see how there can be any
redemption. Music at a "churchy" level with thousands of
people singing the same note does violence in two ways:
First, you are spreading "decibel posioning" and destroying
the hearing of the young. Second, you are enducing
endorphines which is a morphine-like drug which produces the
effects of Fight, Flight and or sexual stimulation.
OSHA would shut down such "theaters for holy entertainment"
and put the noisey children in jail if they had the nerve.
God has nerve.
Both the words for singing and "psallo" which never means
"musical melody" both relate to making war, making unnatural
sex, enchanting or Sorcery. Singing beyond using "one mind
and one mouth" to teach "teach that which is written for our
learning" is also exercising both psychological and physical
violence: it violates the REST and removal of the LADEN BURDEN
by Jesus.
Matt. 11:11 Verily I say unto you, Among them that
are born of women there hath not risen a greater than John the
Baptis
notwithstanding, he that
is least in the kingdom of heaven is greater
than he.
Matt. 11:12 And from the days of John the Baptist until now

When your hireling says WE have decided that WE
will add MUSICAL INSTRUMENTS into your congregation and you
need to get over it, that same person would pick your pocket
or hurt you to get your property: THAT is the meaning of a
heretic or sectarian.
In the confession of Rick Atchley:
-Lys.
6 51 For this man donned a ceremonial
robe, and in imitation of the rites he revealed
the sacred things to the uninitiated,
a
nd spoke with his
lips the forbidden words: those deities whom we
worship,
and to whom with our
devotions and purifications we sacrifice and pray, he mutilated.
And for such a deed priestesses and priests stood up and cursed
him, facing the west, and shook out their purple vestments
according to the ancient and time-honored custom. He has
admitted this action.
-Lys. 6 52 Moreover, transgressing the law
that you made,
whereby he was debarred
from the temples as a reprobate,
he has violated
all these restrictions and has entered into our
city;
he has sacrificed
on the altars which were forbidden him,
and come into
the presence of the sacred things on which he
committed his impiety;
he has
entered into the Eleusinium, and baptized his hands in
the holy water.
Any person who uses the Levites as his foundation, and then
violates the laws of the Levites by going into or close to
any holy thing or place IS WORTHY of spiritual
death.

The Greek word in question here is biastai
(the plural form of biastes), which a good
many versions translate: "violent men." This
is the word that appears in Matt. 11:12 -- "violent
men take it by force." The verb form of
this word, which appears in both Matt. 11:12 and Luke 16:16,
is biazo. "The kingdom of heaven suffers
violence" [Matt. 11:12]. "Every man entereth
violently into it" [Luke 16:16, ASV].
A HERETIC OR SECTARIAN CONFISCATES
SOMETHING THAT DOES NOT BELONG TO HIM.
There is nothing more violent than to define as SECTARIAN those
who will not pretend to worship God by the use of musical
instruments which is defined as "machines for doing hard work".
They know of no church which has conspired and used the
Atchley-Maneuver to steal the church house of an instrumental
group.
A Sectarian always uses music or
enchantment to
seduce
the
pants off the widows and owners.
This is what Paul outlawed as self-pleasure in
Romans 15 which includes all of the performing or hypocritic
arts and crafts.

THE KINGDOM OF GOD DOES NOT COME TO RELIGIOUS OBSERVATIONS
OR WORSHIP SERVICES.
Lk 17:20 And when he was demanded of the Pharisees,
when the kingdom of God should come, he answered them and
said, The
kingdom of God cometh not
with
observation:
The Kingdom of God is the body or Church of
Christ: while the kingdom has been established it does
not automatically COME to your congregation
unless you let Jesus be King and Priest. The kingdom of
God is near us when the King of the kingdom is near
us: He is near us when the elders "teach that which has been
taught." That lets the King do all of the speaking.
The kingdom comes when Christ's Will is done on Earth.
Observātĭo ,
The Kingdom is not: A.
An office, duty, service (eccl.
Lat.): “Dei sui et expiationis,” Vulg. 2 Esdr. 12, 44: “in observationibus sicut fas est,” id. 1 Macc. 12, 11.—
1 Macc 12:11
- We therefore remember you constantly on every occasion,
both in our feasts and on other appropriate
days, at the sacrifices which we offer
and in our prayers, as it is right and proper to
remember brethren.
They performed the religious
observations because they were commanded to do so:
there was no virtue in doing what they were commanded to do
with a penalty attached if they did not.
Jesus commanded us to pray in our private places.
He commanded that YOUR hand never know what MY hand gives in
ALMS (the only giving authorized.
He repudiated the men who made an OVSERVATION out of
their prayer or alms.

Listening to a sermon is NOT an act of worship: preaching
is not an act of worship: there is no role and no dole for
preaching other than as commanded by Christ in the wilderness

a mission they do not comprehend.,
2Thessalonians 2:9 Even him, whose coming is
after the working of Satan with all power and signs
and lying wonders,
The Kingdom
is not: Opĕrātĭo A. A
religious performance, service,
or solemnity, a bringing of offerings:
operationes denicales, offerings
"Lying wonders" specificially speak of religious observations
where the dominant leaders claim that they are doing God's
will.
I REMEMBER SIGNS
AT CHURCH WHICH READ: Come to Learn, Leave to Serve.
JESUS CALLED THE SCRIBES AND PHRAISEES, HYPOCRITES.
In the Ezekiel 33 example of "mouth" or external worship
Jesus identified the hypocrites as preachers, singers and
instrument players. Musical Instruments always toldGod to
"Shut your face."
AND TO BOAST OF IT??
Paul warned us not to do SELF pleasure: the word is the same as
a
HERETIC. In the Greek sacrificial system the
PARASITE made the lambs dumb before the slaughter and the
HERETIC
was the priest who lifted them up to cut
their throats.
In both Greek and Latin the method was what Jesus identified as
the hypocrites: preachers, singers and instrument players
quotint Ezekiel33. This included "creation of mental
excitement" which is the Laded Burden Jesus died to rid the
world of along with the burden laders: burdens are types of
songs wich "create spiritual anxiety through religious rituals.
That's what a Levite would do by the command of God. Rick says
that by LEAVING the Church of Christ they are not leaving the
kingdom.
However, Jesus MARKED religion by saying that the Kingdom of
Christ (or Christ Himself as sole Teacher) comes NOT with
Religious
OBSERVATIONS: No preaching, telling preacher tales,
singing, playing instruments or ANYTHING which is not INSIDE the
Spirit as God's new Holy Place where any Levite singer or
instrumennt player would be executed.
How can Jesus say that worship is IN THE SPIRIT (place) and not
in houses (places) and devoted to the Truth and
hireling-preacherlings flowing out of captured "christian"
colleges say just the opposite.
How can Jesus say that the kingdom (Jesus the King) will never
come near "religious observations" especially "lying wonders"
which are religious services CLAIMING that they are led by God.
Blasphemy is claiming that God commanded something when
Christ in the prophets says that God DID NOT command any such
thing. Blasphemy sticks to you closer than a "worship
leaderling."
The Kingdom of God comes NOT with (religious)
observations. Therefore, God sends strong
delusions to those who tamper with His Word (songs or sermons,
dance or drama) and the produce LYING WONDERS which are any of
the performing arts which BLEED AWAY all of the attention due to
God and His Word.
- The New credo
is that God commanded instrumental praise and WE
will not be disobedient. A small number of
preachers have been duped into a fatal fall from
grace: flattery will get you anything! They are
usually agents or under the influence of the NACC.
These men are devoid of spiritual truth but prophecy is
that all but the elect or "ekklesia" or Church
will be led astray: why would people spend the widow's
food money to vagabond sall over the nation lusting to
hear a simple-simon speech about simple simon?
- If God did
NOT command the use of Musical Instruments (to
make noise) even when He abandoned them to worship the
starry host BECAUSE of musical idolatry--
- Then Jeremiah
23 by the Spirit OF Christ (the only Spirit) says that
you have blasphemed
The Holy Spirit.
- The only
Holy Spirit Comforter is Jesus Christ and He will not
tell you to disobey the Word.
- Jacob warned us NOT to attend the assemblies of Levi
nor to join in covenant with them. They would use
both instruments as weapons and musical. He
promised that Messiah would come out of Judah
Your preacher has repudiated Jesus Christ if he tells you
to follow the pattern of the Levites.
- When Israel rose up in musical idolatry of
the Egyptian (etal) trinity involving the holocaustum
of Rick's proof text, they rose up in surgo
against God Who turned them over to worship the starry
host: He gave the Law of Moses and sentenced them to return
to Babylon. To that end "He gave them kings in
His anger" when the "elders" abandoned God.
- The Levitess (modern musical worship teams) jumped
at the chance to murder 3,000 of their
"members." In the modern sense if you EXCLUDE 3,000
of the "owners" when they see the MARK of musical
performers, that's just fine. Paul's version in Romans 1 is
that they fell into sexual and gender confused
practices. There is no other history marking the PERSONA
of religious performers. People flee from
the persona when they do not fully understand that according
to the Vineyard or New Wineskins they are
being aroused into a sexual-like climactic
experience--just before "giving of substance."
Because the Levites had proven their value as EXECUTIONERS,
Moses made them His Praetorian Guard.
However, they lost their inheritance and were supported by
fleecing the poor of tithes and offerings as God
warned through Samuel. Those who have been
dedicated to perform at a temple are declared
anathema. That means that they have lost their
inheritance, cannot be redeemed and MUST BE bured.
Christ in Isaiah 30 says that "hell" was prepared for the
enemies of God--those who went in musical processions to
Jerusalem--and the marks in sight and sound will be wind,
string and percussion instruments.
They stood near the Holy Places to murder
anyone who came too close: like "guardians of the podium."
As a "Makes Works Ministry" when no longer needed to
make war, the musical role was ADDED by David and
there is no other authority. They soothsayed to the
accompany of musical instruments. Instruments always
identify people who would use spiritual deception. In
Revelation 18 they were "lusted after fruits [same as in
Amos] as SORCERERS. Your team is performing Sorcery
with instrumental accompaniment. Congratulations you
have facilitated something of Biblical proportions.
1Chronicles 25:1 David, [king]
together with the commanders of the army,
set apart some of the sons of Asaph, Heman and Jeduthun
for the ministry of prophesying, accompanied
by harps, lyres and cymbals. Here
is the list of the men who performed this service:

Any preacher who violates the direct command to "teach

IN the early church: Prophēt-eia , hē, III. in NT,
gift of expounding scripture, or of
speaking and preaching, under the influence of the Holy
Spirit (cf. prophētēs), Ep.Rom.12.6,
1 Ep.Cor.12.10,
1 Ep.Ti.1.18,
4.14,
al.
A preacher "prophesies" under the guidance of the Holy
Spirit (Christ) when he reads that which is written and
can say "thus saith the Lord." Early Reformation
groups in England met in secret and the reading and
meditating on the Word was called "prophesying meetings"
-
The next day an evil spirit from
God came forcefully upon Saul. He was prophesying
in his house, while David was playing the harp, as he
usually did. Saul had a spear in his hand 1 Sam 18:10
"He prophesied in the
midst of the house. He was beside himself; made prayers,
supplications, and incoherent imprecations: 'God preserve my life,'
'Destroy my enemies,' or such like prayers, might
frequently escape from him in his agitated state. The Arabic intimates that
he was actually possessed by an evil spirit,
and
that through it he uttered a sort of demoniacal predictions." (Clark, 1 Sam 18, p.
270).
"In ancient times,
says Justin, kings used a spear instead of a diadem: And
as spears were the emblems of supreme power, hence they
were reputed as attributes of the Divinity, and were worshipped as representatives of the
gods." (Adam Clark, 1 Sam. 18,
p. 270)
- The DIRECT COMMAND used by these modern
worshipers of the STARS is 2 Chronicles 29.
The Levites stood in RANKS under the king and
commanders of the army when the normal "plague stopping"
sacrifiices were made. It was Hezekiah's idea to try
to appease Israel as the "instrumental"
sect. Only when the
- goats were "Holocausted" did the Levites
make a great noise never called music. This was to
make sure that no extraneous sounds reached the ears of the
priests who was and is the "authorized god handler. The were
not musical worship ministers they were Soothsayers
with Instrumental accompaniment.
A. Christ in Isaiah defines the destiny of the harps
and buried alive harpists:
Isaiah 14:11 Thy pomp is brought down to the grave, and the
noise of thy viols:
the worm is
spread under thee, and the worms [maggots] cover
thee.
Isaiah 14:12 How art thou fallen from heaven, O Lucifer, son
of the morning!
how art
thou cut down to the ground, which didst weaken the nations!
Isaiah 14:13 For thou hast said in thine heart, I will
ascend into heaven,
I will exalt
my throne above the stars of God:
I will sit also
upon the mount of the congregation, in the sides of the
north:
Isaiah 14:14 I will ascend above the heights of the clouds;
I will be like the most High.
Isaiah 14:15 Yet thou shalt be brought down to hell,
to the sides of the pit.
B. Christ in Isaiah defines FOR WHOM "hell"
was prepared. Because the Jews went in musical procession to
Jerusalem to HOLOCAUST infants, the trick
would be turned and the MARKS in sight and sound of God
driving His enemies into hell would be the Wind, String and
Percussion instruments. See Isa
30LXX
1).
According to Christ in Ezekiel 28 these instruments came
when Lucifer was "cast as profane" out of heaven
into the garden of Eden midst the stones of fire.
2). The "song"
of the prostitute involves the harp Isaiah 23:16
C. The speakers, singers, instrument players in
Revelation 18 are called Sorcerers who will be cast
alive into the lake of fire.
As the music ceased when the HOLOCAUST
was finished and the performers are silenced, in
Revelation 18 there are no more instruments. The musical
sounds are EXCISED from the body at the first noisy blast,
and the "lampstands" of the seven spirits of Christ go into
exile exactly as when Solomon dedicated the temple.
Revelation 18:22 And the voice of harpers, and
musicians, and of pipers, and trumpeters,
shall be heard no more at
all in thee; and no craftsman, [Theater builders-stage
managers]
of whatsoever
craft he be,
shall be found
any more in thee;
and the sound of
a millstone shall be heard no more at all in thee;
Revelation 18:23 And the light of a candle
shall shine no more at all in thee;
and the voice of
the bridegroom and of the bride shall be heard no more at
all in thee:
[The nymphs
engaged in Hiros Gamos or holy sex marriage in paganism]
for thy merchants were the great men of the
earth;
for by thy sorceries
were all nations deceived.
Revelation 18:24 And in her was found the blood of
prophets,
and of saints,
and of all that were slain upon the earth.
WHO KILLED THE PROPHETS?
Matthew 23:29 Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites!
[In Ezekiel 33:
speakers, singers and instruments. THE meaning of
hypocrites]
because ye build the tombs
of the prophets, and garnish the sepulchres
of the righteous,
Matthew 23:30 And say, If we had been in the days of our
fathers,
we would not have been
partakers with them in the blood of the prophets.
Matthew 23:31 Wherefore ye be witnesses unto yourselves,
that ye are the children
of them which killed the prophets.
CHRIST IN EZEKIEL 33 NAMES THE HYPOCRITES AS PREACHERS,
SINGERS, INSTRUMENT PLAYERS
Revelation 19:20 And the beast
was taken, and with him the false prophet
that wrought miracles before him, with
which he deceived them that had received the mark
of the beast, and them that worshipped his image.
These both were cast alive into a
lake of fire burning with brimstone.

- There is nocommand for group singing with
instrumental accompaniment: what you have been tricked into
is called
"Soothsaying with instrumental
accompaniment."
- The speakers, singers, instrument
players and craftsmen or techne "theater builders
and stage managers" including the grinders or prostitutes
making a "piping" sound to solicit, are called SORCERERS.
Therefore, they have tricked
you into:
"SORCERY with
Instrumental accompaniment."
- Now, I hope that as a Boiled Frog you have a happy day!
If you followed these agents and believe
that when the Levites made a great, crashing noise while burning
the goats for Israel, and which Christ says God DID NOT COMMAND,
you are involved with "something of Biblical proportions."
You need to know (now that it's too late) that the
Levites
stood in military ranks to
GUARD the horrors of
not-commanded animal sacrifices from the godly civillians.
If you insisted on attending their "instrumental music service"
they are commanded by God through Moses to EXECUTE you.
The death of a spirit is a terrible thing to baste.
The Levites
as Military Guards and chief executioners.

The Church is built on the foundation of the
Prophets and Apostles. I have commented on a
paper by "Anon" to prove that no one was so uninformed that
they could have accidentially missed the fork in the roat at
Mount Sinai. I know of no preacher or scholar who
understands what happened: "Doctors of the law take away the
key to knowledge." Jesus called these same Scibes and
Pharisees, hypocrites. In the Ezekiel 33 example He names
speakers, singers and instrument players who have no role in
an Ekklesia of Christ. It's True: Jesus never said "thou
shall not be a hypocrite."
8.09.11 Review
of K.C.Moser who is the foundation of the neo-trinitarians
and Anti-Baptism direct commands
Jay Guin is the promoter of the
Progressive
Church of Christ: a new anti-everything sectarian
division. John defined this new sect in Revelation 17 and called
all of the agents of the Mother Goddess sorcerers: preachers
without portfolio, singers and instrument players (Rev. 18). As
Christ did in Isaiah 30 John consignes them to be (been) cast
alive into the lake of fire.
Saying that Christ--THE Holy Spirit--said something He did not
say or command is defined as blaspheming the Holy Spirit.
Review
of Truitt Adair's review of Rick Atchley.
Preachers are shooting blanks and keeping their career path safe
as long as they agree that Amos (by the Spirit of Christ)
condemned only their "attitude." And as long as they say that
God commanded anything in the cursed king, kingdom, temple,
sacrificial system at which they made exorcism noises never
called music. The church is built upon the Prophets and Apostles
all who radically condemn the the Civil-Military-Clergy complex
as robbers, parasites and hypocrites (defined as speakers,
singer and instrument players)
7.12.11
Bob
Williams in the Origins of Christian Worship teaches
(along with most preachers) that the Christian Worship was
derived from the Jews which until its destruction was at the
temple;
"After its
construction by Solomon, the temple in Jerusalem became
the prominent focus of Jewish worship. It
appears that the emphasis of worship in the
temple was primarily on sacrificial offerings
and praise to God through music.
All of the sowing of discord in the modern church is founded on
total ignorance of the story of the Monarchy: God turned them
over to worship the starry host. Why do YOU think so many are
working so legalisticall hard to conform the church to the
Monarchy
. If you can convince people that the Pharisees
removed instrumental music from the synagogue then if you are
not a pharisee you should maybe aqccept instruments.
Jay will not stand up and accept any comment which does not
endorse him. I just posted and it will go away:

Testimony
Old: oneinjesus by Jay Guin defends the teachings of
Al Maxey, Cecil Hook, Dallas Burdette, Edward Fudge, John Mark
Hicks, Patrick Mead, Stoned-Campbell and Wineskins. These are
the ones I have reviewed and they represent the latest crop of
theologians. The motive is some kind of spooky agenda to
denounce the Church of Christ which feeds them with the
assertion that most of the false teachings are the product--of
one major NACC author--of a southern, ignorant, rednecked
mentality: all of the teachings are based on a legalistic,
sectarian patternism. They even CLAIM that the Church invented
the false teaching of TEACHING WHAT THE BIBLE TEACHES AND NOT
TEACHING WHAT THE BIBLE DOES NOT TEACH. Other products of
this "decadent and deleterious" (rotten and destructive for we
non Phds) includes teaching what Jesus commanded: that baptism
is FOR or IN ORDER to the remission of sins.

Danny Dodd and Royce Ogle on Legalism
John
T. Willis 2. "Sing" is vocal; "make melody"
is instrumental. Psalms 33:2-3; 144:9; 149:1, 3 make
this crystal clear. Amos 5:23 further verifies this reality.
People forget that God turned Israel over to worship the starry
host because of musical idolatry at Mount Sinai. The Levites
were under the KING and the COMMANDERS of the army: they made
war and not worship. We will examine these passages in context.
Jay Guin: Jesus is our Counselor, and the Spirit is
another Counselor. The Greek word translated Counselor
is the same word used for a defense attorney. It is literally
“one who stands beside” to give comfort or counsel. Some
translations call the Spirit the “Comforter.” And the word
refers to a person, not a book. And Jesus himself speaks of
sending “him,” not “it.”
Not even the highest level of scholarship cares enough to define
words and look at parallel passages. This is why about half of
churches of Christ are polytheistic and believe in three God
people and according to
John
Mark Hicks "each with their own center of
consciousness." The fact is there is ONE GOD
in heaven and Jesus of Nazareth whom God MADE TO BE BOTH Lord
and Christ to fulfill the prophecies by the Spirit OF Christ.
Jesus of nazareth died, was resurrected and metamorphosed or
changed into a Holy (wholly) Spirit state: this is the same as
our post resurrected state. Jesus returned to the Father,
received the Holy Spirit or HIS new state and HE shed forth what
was seen and heard in the upper room. The name of the "another"
Comforter says the same John in Jesus Christ the
Righteous. John also said that if you do not believe this
two-fold relationship you are an anti-Christ. I am looking at
Jay's proof texts as time allows in his

4,03,11 Update
on Jay Guinn and the nature of the Kingdom. What Jay
and the "progressives" points directly to the Scribes and
Pharisees whom Jesus called hypocrites and named in Ezekiel 33
self-speakers, singers and instrument players. Their job was to
violently take over the Kingdom by violent means. Just defining
words points directly to all of the performing artists who
intend to "make the voice of the Victim silent."
4.01.11 Matthew
11 Jesus speaks against singers, musicians and
rhetoricians who BURDEN the assembly of
Christ and destroy the REST which is distubed by all of the
external trappings of a so-called worship service. These are the
people who take the kingdom or your congregation by force.

Eros is approved, and its excesses condoned, when
directed towards superior youths approaching manhood.
(b) It appears to be condemned,
in so far as parents forbid their boys to hold converse

attitude must be sought in the principle laid down above,
that the moral quality of an act depends upon the
conditions of its performance.
GRACE is Kharizo
2. gratify or indulge a

favours to a man,
give up as a favour by
dropping a law aimed at him,
Those who willingly infiltrate and impose musical instruments
into a peaceable church justify the deliberate sowing of discord
based on false teachings of all of the "instrument" passages
also preach that GRACE will cover them.
Grace
Centered Magazine: 3.06.11. This forum has a Church of Christ thread
dedicated to abusing those who do not deliberately reject
the clear teaching of the Word and recorded history. A
common lie is that the Church Fathers had nothing bad to
say about the use of instruments based on Scripture. We
have refuted that to prove that NO ONE used instruments in
the churches but refute the Jews who did because they had
been abandoned to Canaanite Baalism or the worship of the
starry host.
See
Grace Centered Magazine Review on Baptism: Rejecting baptism
fulfils the prophecy of Christ in Isaiah and Malachi.
Review of "Instrumental
Music in the Old Testament: Part 2 (Worship)"
Jay has written another "brief" which goes something like this:
- Non-instrumentalists claim that "God commanded
instrumental music under the OLD LAW" at the temple.
- There are several isolated events that people "worshiped"
God with instruments OUTSIDE of the Temple.
- Therefor, it is acceptable to use instruments to worship
God.
However, no one who had read much Old Testament and universal
history believes that God commanded king, kingdom, temple,
animal sacrifices and the Levites making noise during animal
sacrifices.
They also know that Christ (the Rock) defined the Qahal,
synagogue or Church of Christ in the Wilderness:
- It was INCLUSIVE of Rest, Reading and Rehearsing
the Word of God: what disciples are commanded to do.
- It was EXCLUSIVE of vocal or instrumental
rejoicing: what reverent disciples do not do.
- Jesus exampled and commanded the "ekklesia" which like
"synagogue" has no praise service because both are for
heaaring material prepared by a higher authority.
No historic scholar ever believed that there is any "musical" or
"singing" content in the Bible because none of it is metrical by
design.
No Bishop ever imposed the ACT of singing in that oriential
non-tuneful style until 373 after Constantine began to pay
pagans to be unwashed clergy.
When
people speak out of their own imagination instead of the
Word as Spirit by Christ in the Prophets and Apostles,
Christ calls it blasphemy. Of Hezekiah's Plague
stopping exorcism used to say that "God commanded
instrumental praise and we must not be disobedient" Christ
calls them BLASPHEMERS.
2.17.10
Revised
If you would name the
DISTINCTIVES of The Church of Christ you would include.
1. There is ONE God the Father in
heaven and Jesus of Nazareth whom God made to be both Lord
and Christ. Therefore, all that we know about the Father has
been Revealed by the Son and therefore the "fullness of
Deity dwelled in Him bodily.
See Alexander Campbell: the
Trinitarian System
2. But in the second
place, I have an insuperable objection to the Arian
and Calvinistic phraseology--
On the doctrine
of the first relation existing between the Father
and the Saviour of Men, because it confounds things human
and divine, and gives new ideas to bible terms unthought
of by the inspired writers.
The names Jesus, Christ,
or Messiah, Only Begotten Son, Son of God, belong to the
Founder of the christian religion, and to none else.
They express not a
relation existing before the christian era, but
relations which commenced at that time.
To understand the relation
betwixt the Saviour and his Father,
which existed before time,
and that relation which began in time,
is impossible on
[333] either of these theories.
There was no
Jesus, no Messiah, no Christ, no Son of God, no Only
Begotten, before the reign of Augustus Cesar.
The relation that
was before the christian era, was not that of a son and
a father, terms which always imply disparity; but it
was that expressed by John in the sentence under
consideration.
The relation
was that of God, and the "word of God." This
phraseology unfolds a relation quite different from that
of a father and a son--a relation perfectly
intimate, equal, and glorious. This naturally leads me to
the first sentence of John. And here I must state a few postulata.
ISAIAH 3 CHRIST'S PROPHETIC
TYPE: CLICK
BELOW FOR CHRIST'S WARNING ISAIAH 3:
RELIGION" REPLACING "SCHOOL OF CHRIST" AND: WORSHIP
ANDROGYNY THE PAGAN SEXUAL IDEA
We
have done a quick study of Titus 1 because the bubbly
wineskinners have usurped the role of selecting elders: this is
almost always done with the heavy TILT of the wives of search
groups. It comes as no surprise that Paul understood the
PATTERNISM of Crete and therefore picked elders with the
OPPOSITE tilt. Crete was devoted to the Mother Goddess
under various names: in Revelation 17 she is the Babylon
mother of harlots. She uses "lusted after fruits" as
rhetoricians (poetic speakers), singers and instrument players:
John calls them sorcerers who HAD deceived the whole world.
Apollo as the Abaddon or Apollyon was center-stage on Crete and
the MUSES (Rev 18) as his musical worship team were noted as
dirty adulteresses. I have added just a token bit of
material with links you cannot find among the scholars so you
can decide whether you REALLY want to bow to Apollo as one
notorious preacher has tilted toward the Levites as his
PATTERNISM but Christ in the prophets says it was NOT commanded
and marks them as robbers and parasites. ALL of the connects to
the Levite Prophesiers are derived from the feminine: only males
could be religious performers but they had to "perform the roles
of women."
The
Spiritual
people were commanded to Qahal, synagogue or hold church in
the wilderness on the REST days: this quarantined them
from the sacrificial idolatry and permitted them to Rest, Read
and Rehearse the Word of God (only). This outlawed vocal
or instrumental rejoicing: pretty simple that you shut up the
musical children when God comes to instruct you through the
elders.
The Lord's Supper was instituted during the Feast of Unleavened Bread which came "after supper." The Passover was only once a year and was a family ceremony and never a public ritual with singing and dancing. Jesus SPAKE A hymn and went out.
Paul defines the musical idolatry at Mount Sinai as demon worship. The Book of Enoch and Romans 1 etal define this fall from Grace for which there was no redemption.
