Timothy 3: see how the DECEIVERS condemned by Paul used music as sorcery to deceive the whole world


David Faust Instrumental Music at Freed Hardeman University:  Not ready for prime time but an introduction of fact that instrumental music appears as the CAUSE or MARK of inviting God out of their presence.  The result as the "glory" of God is actually proof that God has removed both His Word and Grace under the mercy seat so that you can never enter it again. It is NOT a sign that God is being seduced by the music outside.


Who are CROOKED and PERVERTED generation of MUSICIANS? Are they fallen angels?

IT'S ALL A BIG SCAM! There is NO music ever used or approved in the worship of a SPIRIT. You may search my extensive resources by the search form below. You will NEVER find music used in the spiritual worship of a Holy Spirit God. You will ALWAYS find that attemting such worship is many times in the Bible and always in paganism telling the Patriarchal God Jehovah that you WILL NOT listen to His words and teach them "as they have been taught.
 
No Levitical Warrior singer or musician ever got into the Holy Place as a "national" model of the synagogue and a carnal type of the body or church of Christ. No! Not even to clean out the garbage. Therefore, any national or Monarchy "noise making" was a civil ritual for a nation which had FIRED God.
 
There was never any "praise service" in the synagogue which as the Qahal was the "church in the wilderness." Any loud instruments or "making a joyful noise before the Lord" was outlawed because it was the Warrior's Panic Chant. To their credit, even in the more institionalized synagogue, no Jew ever tried to turn the SCHOOL OF THE BIBLE into a pagan "worship center."
 
100% of the time the MUSIC words and names of instruments point to Satan, to innocent children, to prostitutes, sodomites or lost people slaughtering tens of thousands of TYPES of God in Christ.
No proof was sought for ADDING music into spiritual worship until within the Christian churches as late as 1878. Catholic or Anglican based groups NEEDED no Biblical authority. However, they confess that music was "lifted" from paganism as "common to all cults."
 
The key word PSALLO simply means to PLUCK. Apollo plucks or twangs his bowstring to send out a singing arrow to kill off old people or, in ritual, send out LOVE ARROWS. Cupid's arrows were love arrows. The male homosexual musician PLUCKS out his hair. The MUSICAL connection is that SONGS and HYMNS were also SHOT OUT. The word DOES NOT authorize making melody WITH A HARP when Paul commanded it to be IN THE HEART. In Romans 15 the concept is that "Now the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace in believing, that ye may abound in hope, through the power of the Holy Ghost. " Rom 15: 13. In Colossians 3:16 it is "singing with grace in your hearts to the Lord. "
 
Lucifer was the MUSICAL ENCHANTER in the garden of Eden and in the end-time Babylon whore worship where in its final destruction:
 
The music of harpists and musicians, [Apollyon's Muses or Locusts] flute players and trumpeters, will never be heard in you again. No workman of any trade will ever be found in you again. The sound [musical] of a millstone will never be heard in you again. Rev 18:22
 
The craftsmen or techne or KORESH in the Cain-Lamech family specialized as THEATER BUILDERS and STAGE MANAGERS.
 
If you have ANY of these on the payroll you have been TRIBULATED big time. According to The Book of Enoch, Jubilees, Adam and Eve and many other ancient views of Genesis, you have fallen and you will never get up again.
 
This has 100% of literary authority to prove it and the MUSICAL AGENTS of change have ZERO authority for doing what was always known to be SPIRITUAL OPPRESSION to fill up the collection plates and, as the Vineyard lady confesses, have a sexual-like CLIMAX with the spirit. That is the pagan meaning. Music as "worship" is evil because

PLEASE ACCEPT THIS AS A VALID WARNING: NONE OF THOSE EATING UP WIDOW'S LIVING ARE GOING TO REFUTE ANY BIT OF THE TRUTH. THIS MEANS THAT IT IS THE TRUTH -- I don't get paid and Paul would say that alone is MY CERTIFICATION.

HERE ARE THE MAJOR SUPPLIERS OF FALSE INFORMATION ABOUT THE BIBLE AND HISTORY. We take liberties because they take something worse that a litteral AXE to squash those who simply refuse to affirm their dogma which was wholly invented by them after my grandfather was born.

Dwaine E. Dunning: 11/21/04The non-instrumental branch must be cut OFF. God always hides a MARK. Important changes made 11/30/04 All music words and musicians intend to USE you and HURT you as the meaning of HERESY, to lift you up to cut your throat or carry you away for THEIR OWN USE. God forbids you to ENABLE them with your "tithes and offerings" else you repudiate HIS COMPLETED work and reject the REST He died to give you.

THE REST OF THIS WEB PAGE POSTS MOST OF THE IMPORTANT DOCUMENTS AGAINST "MUSICAL" WORSHIP INCLUDING BABYLONIAN TABLETS SOME WRITTEN AT THE ESTIMATED DATE FOR NOAH GETTING OFF THE ARK.

2,000 years later, what was undoubtedly written and oral history, was recorded by Moses. This was AFTER Israel's musical idolatry at Mount Sinai as a prayer that God turn them over to worship the starry host. [Acts 7] The Law of Moses was then written to legislate for lawless people going into Canaanite- Babylonian Baalism. This record, then, is a rational corrective to the Babylonian records which existed and which would have more rapidly caused Israel to reject God and demand a king and kingdom like the Goyim or nations which meant "like Babylon."

If we could have found ONE HISTORICAL DOCUMENT which connects MUSIC to the worship of a Spirit, non-homosexual god or goddess we would have told you so. I can find none and the TRAFFICKERS cannot either. That is why if they DO NOT refute this to YOU then you need to, as Alexander Campbell insisted, come out of Babylon because they are hurting you spiritually and emotionally and forcing you to support their evil habit. Don't let them whine about David!

The PUNCH LINE of the gospel is: "all ye that LABOR come to ME and I will give you REST." The labor always had a profession of BURDEN LADERS using people like "pack animals." The other punch like of the gospel is "come to me in twos and threes and learn OF ME."

I know that you go home HURT and bleeding and YOU know it too. The threat is that God will get you if you don't support theatrical performance. That is a lie and they carry the JUDAS BAG which is defined as "for carrying the mouthpieces of wind instruments" and, of course, stolen money.

According to Philo, "the gods of the pagans exploit this weakness of men. For the sake of a better effect, and with the intention of more easily cheating their devotees, they have set their lies to melodies, rhythms and meters."

"The marzeah had an extremely long history extending at least from the 14th century B.C. through the Roman period. In the 14th century B.C., it was prominently associated with the ancient Canaanite city of Ugarit (modern Ras Shamra), on the coast of Syria... The marzeah was a pagan ritual that took the form of a social and religious association... Some scholars regard the funerary marzeah as a feast for--and with--deceased ancestors (or Rephaim, a proper name in the Bible for the inhabitants of Sheol)." (King, Biblical Archaeological Review, Aug, 1988, p. 35, 35)

"These five elements are: (1) reclining or relaxing, (2) eating a meat meal, (3) singing with harp or other musical accompaniment, (4) drinking wine and (5) anointing oneself with oil." (King, p. 37).

"With the wine-drinking (which is the literal meaning of the Hebrew for feasting), went music and dancing." (Heaton, E. W., Everyday Life in Old Testament times, Scribners, p. 93)

"Worship was form more than substance; consequently, conduct in the marketplace was totally unaffected by worship in the holy place. Amos spoke from the conviction that social justice is an integral part of the Mosaic covenant, which regulates relations not only between God and people, but also among people." (King, p. 44).

"In pagan traditions, musical instruments are invented by gods or demi-gods, such as titans. In the Bible, credit is assigned to antediluvian patriarchs, for example, the descendants of Cain in Genesis 4:21. There is no other biblical tradition about the invention of musical instruments." (Freedman, David Noel, Bible Review, Summer 1985, p. 51)

"Slightly less familiar are the Devil's musical exploits. He not only loves singing but is master of the violin, of which instrument of evil he is reputedly the inventor. By the same token he can give mastery of the violin, bartering infernal skill for the pupil's soul.

These legends are related to the larger belief in the supernatural origin of musical skill and individual songs." (Botkin, B. A., A Treasury of American Folklore, Crown Publishers, p. 718; Cf. The Devil and the Fiddle, Herbert Halpert, Hoosier Folklore Bulletin, Vol II (Dec., 1943).  

See an outline of MUSIC in the Bible: it is related to Satan and never to spiritual worship.

"Music, in all its various branches is represented as having been taught to man by his divine and divine-human ancestors, such as Isis-Osiris, Thoth, Edris (in the Koran), etc. It is one of the elements of the power known as mantrikasakti. Music was represented as one of four divisions of mathematics, the others being arithmetic, astronomy, and geometry.

"The music of sound arouses in us a power which needs to be controlled, as it can carry us to heights from which we may fall. If regarded as a sensual indulgence, even though a refined one, its true import is not realized. (Theosohy)

THERE IS NO OTHER BIBLICAL OR HISTORICAL EXCEPTION TO THAT STATEMENT

Psalms-Hymns-Spiritual songs are ALL inspired Bible text

See Rick Atchley on INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC applauded by Restoration Forum of Christian Church. See that MUSIC connects to Satan and PERVERTED religion: "There is no other tradition."

If you get nothing else please grasp that not among the Jews nor in the most vile pagan temples did the musicians enter into the Holy Places. Among the Jews, the Holy Place is a carnal type of the spiritual body of Christ. No Levitical musician could enter into this type of the church of Christ even to clean out the garbage.

The temple musicians in a "religious sense" (grouped with prostitutes in pagan religions) were in the court making a loud mocking noise during the sacrifice and burning of animals.

In fulfilment of the prophetic type, it was prophesied in Psalm 41 and fulfilled in the Dead Sea Scroll translation that Judas and the military musicians would attempt to turn Jesus into a coward. Click for some examples.

David's Temple as a request to rule and worship like THE NATIONS. The Hebrew word goyim, "nations", was the Babylonian Gutium or Guti in a neighbouring state which plays an important role throughout Babylonian history. The Temple was a CARNALtemple permitted as PUNISHMENT for Israle's RISING UP TO PLAY at Mount Sinai restoring Egyptian- Canaanite- Babylonian worship. The conditional sentence was carried out when the ELDERS wanted to replace God with a king, kingdom and worship LIKE THE NATIONS. The sentence was that Israel would be returned to Assyria and Babylon.

Comparing the Elements of the Jerusalem Temple as Tower of Babel

The Levitical "musician's" SERVICE was HARD BONDAGE. In the NATIONS the loud noise was EXORCISM to expel the evil spirits and AWAKEN or call the gods into their temple. David composed some AWAKENING Psalms but John Hyrcanus suppressed them.

In its fulfillment prophesied by Psalm 41, Judas--whose JUDAS BAG was for carrying mouthpieces of wind instruments--would try to TRIUMPH OVER Jesus. This was carried out by the WARRIOR musicians originally under the KING and COMMANDERS of the army and NOT the priests.

The "work" of the "musicians" ended with the death of Jesus. Not among the Jews or the worst of pagan temple-states did the "musicians" EVER enter into the Holy Places. The Jerusalem's Holy Place was a carnal type of the church of Christ: no singers or musicians could enter it even to clean out the garbage.

With the demise of the temple the Jews understood that there could be no animal sacrifices and therefore no music. This ended and was not restored until A.D. 1815 in a German synagogue.

10/27/02 This is a review of a paper produced by and sent from Farmer's Branch Church of Christ. Both "singing" and "playing" are bound tightly to literal and spiritual prostitution. The Sodomites and the female singers and players plagued the temple.

Aristotle: Melody Deceives: "Poets also make use of this in inventing words, as a melody "without strings" or "without the lyre"; for they employ epithets from negations, a course which is approved in proportional metaphors..

The form of diction should be neither metrical nor without rhythm.

If it is metrical, it lacks persuasiveness, for it appears artificial, and at the same time it distracts the hearer's attention, since it sets him on the watch for the recurrence of such and such a cadence..

According to Philo, the gods of the pagans exploit this weakness of men. For the sake of a better effect, and with the intention of more easily cheating their devotes, that they have set their lies to melodies, rhythms and meters.." Click for more.

No one can doubt that Paul put the singing AND melody in the HEART and not upon a harp! If it breaks toward the MUSICAL side someone is trying to deceive someone as the "serpent" musically enchanted Eve while Adam went willingly.

 Background to "Look To The Hills Leadership and Worship Conference." This is not a direct command worthy of sowing discord to introduce Feminist-Gnostic worship. Rather, the verse is a Question: "Shall I look to the Hills or Mountain Gods?? The answer is, "No, I will look to the CREATOR of the hills for my salvation." This is a coded invitation to end-times pagan ritualizing but NOT to worship.

The Gospel means freedoom from forms of mind-control music. The good news is that the poorest, homeless persons can "speak" the Word of Christ to one another even if they were not born into the musicians tribe or guild, are not gifted with musical talent and have not spent at least five years learning the trade secrets of musical performances:
