Rick Atchley Defending Instrument Music

Rick.Atchley.The.New.Hermeneutic.html
The voices they hear from spiritual formation walking the Devil's Circle is not HOLY because there is no example of anyone in Holy Scripture said to worship by singing, playing instruments, acting or PAY TO PLAY for performing staff: THE meaning of an abomination in their "holy" place.

They cannot hear because, speaking of the musical and sexual play at Mount Sinai, Jude warns about our last days that they were FOREOREDAINED to this JUDGMENT. Under this this link to New Hermeneutics. the LOCUSTS led by APOLLYON are Musical Prophesiers. The musicians were SENT by God for the baptism of spirit (wind) to make the great separation:  the Chaff will be baptized with FIRE.

Depart from me, ye cursed, into everlasting fire,
       prepared for the devil [Diabolus] and his angels: [Mousōn aggelos]

Rubel Shelly and John York: Rubel: Let me give you an example to work with in relation to the question you've raised: homosexuality and the ordination of practicing homosexuals to ministry.  Why don't we at least entertain the possibility that the Bible simply reflects an ANCIENT TABOO or homophobic prejudice in a few people like Paul -- a taboo and prejudice we need to outgrow?

Jude 4 For there are certain men crept in unawares,
        who were before of old ordained to this condemnation,
        ungodly men, turning the grace of our God into lasciviousness,
        and denying the only Lord God, and our Lord Jesus Christ.
Jude 5 I will therefore put you in remembrance, though ye once knew this,

        afterward destroyed them that believed not.

THE “ETHICS” AND THE “METAPHYSICS” OF MUSIC
This is expanded at 
North.Boulevard.Church.Women.Rule.Over.You.html

Music acts upon human beings, on their nervous systems and their vital processes: in 1849 Liszt wrote a song, “Die Macht der Musik” to a text by the Duchess Hele`ne d’Or le ́ans:MUSIC paying tribute to its own capacities.

This power— which poems and colors possess occasionally and indirectly— is in the case of MUSIC particularly immediate, drastic, and indiscreet: “it penetrates to the center of the soul,” Plato says, “and gains P0SSESSION of the soul in the most energetic fashion,” ...Music

Schopenhauer, on this point, echoes Plato.
        By means of massive irruptions,  [overtones]
        MUSIC takes up residence in our intimate self
        and seemingly elects to make its home there.
The man inhabited and possessed by this intruder,
        the man ROBBED of a self, is no longer himself:
        he has become nothing more than a vibrating string, a sounding pipe.
He trembles madly under the bow or the fingers of the instrumentalist;
        and just as APOLLON fills the Pythia’s lungs,
        so the organ’s powerful voice
        and the harp’s gentle accents take possession of the listener.

This process, at once IRRATIONAL and SHAMFUL, takes place on the margins of truth,
        and thus borders more on magic than on empirical science.

Something that wants to persuade us with singing,
         rather than convince us with reason,
         implements an art of pleasing that addresses the passions,
         that is, one that subjugates in suggesting and that enslaves the listener
         through the fraudulent and charlatan power of melody,
         weakens him through harmonic glamour or the fascinations of rhythm.

To accomplish this, the process does not tap the logistical or governing aspects of the mind
        but rather engages the mind
s entire psychosomatic element.

If mathematical discourse is thinking that wishes to make itself comprehensible
        to other thought by becoming transparent to it,
a harmonic modulation is an act that expects to influence a being;
        and by influenceone must also understand a clandestine causality,
        just as in astrology or sorcery: illegal maneuvers, black arts.

The magical induction becomes a seduction and thus trickery,
        and an ADULT refuses to be captivated,
        resisting the beliefs suggested to him by the auletic. [piper?]

A woman who persuades solely by means of her presence and its perfumes,
        that is, by the magical exhalations of her being,
        the night that envelops us, MUSIC, which secures our allegiance
        solely through the Charm engendered by a TRILL or an ARPEGGIO,
        will therefore be the object of a  deep suspicion.
Being BEWITCHED is not worthy of a rational person.
        Just as a MASCULINE
                Will insists that its decisions are made on concrete grounds

              
and will never admit a preference founded in emotion
               
so MASCULINE Reason will never admit itself prone to seduction.
What is science for if not to sustain us against the intoxications of night
        and the TEMPTATIONS exercised by the ENCHANTRESS appearance?

Rick.Atchley.Advanced.Homilectics.And.Devil.Worship.html

Music, the sonorous phantasm, is the most futile of mere appearances,
          and appearance, which with neither the force to probe
            nor any intelligible determinism 
           
is nonetheless  able to persuade the DAZZLED fool,
            is in some way the objecti
fication of our weakness.
A man who has sobered up, a demysti
fied man,
        does not forgive himself for having once been
        The dupe of misleading powers; a man who is abstaining,
         having awakened from his nocturnal exhilaration,
         BLUSHES [demons can't blush] for having given in to dark causality.

Once morning has returned,
         he disowns the pleasurable arts themselves,
        along with his own skills of pleasing.
Strong and serious minds, prosaic and positive minds:
       maybe their prejudice with regard to MUSIC comes from sobering up.
In the presence of the SCABROUS power un leashed by MUSIC,
       a number of attitudes are possible.
We can distinguish three: the right of use and enjoyment, passionate resentment, and refusal pure and simple.

Acts 15:21 For Moses of old time
        hath in every city them that PREACH him,
        being READ in the synagogues [church] every sabbath day. [once each week]

This Holy Convocation was held on FIRST and EIGHTH days of festiovals..

The PATTERN COMMANDEDof God:

Matt. 23:34 Wherefore, behold,
        I send unto you prophets, and wise men, and SCRIBES:
        and some of them ye shall kill and crucify;
        and some of them shall ye scourge in your synagogues,
        and persecute them from city to city:

Luke 11:49 Therefore also said the wisdom of God,
        I will send them prophets and APOSTLES,
        and some of them they shall slay and persecute:

The PATTERN of Jesus:

Luke 4:16 And he came to Nazareth,
        where he had been brought up:
           [educated: he was 30 years old before He was sactified and sent]
and, as his custom was, [singular pattern]
        he went into the synagogue on the sabbath day,
        and stood up for to READ.

The COMMAND of Jesus

John 8:28 Then said Jesus unto them,
        When ye have lifted up the Son of man,
        then shall ye know that I am he,
        and that I do nothing of myself;
        but as my Father hath taught me,
[The only meaning of SPIRIT as WORD John 6:620
        I speak these things.
John 8:29 And he that sent me is with me: t
       he Father hath not left me alone;
       for I do always those things that please him.
John 8:31 Then said Jesus to those Jews which believed on him,
       IF ye continue in my word,
       THEN are ye my disciples indeed;

[Word, Logos, God's Regulative Principle. Outlaws rhetoric, music, scenic hinderence]

The PATTERN of Paul in the synagogues

Acts 13:15 And after the READING of the law and the prophets
          the rulers of the synagogue sent unto them, saying,
         Ye men and brethren, if ye have any word of exhortation [COMFORT] for the people, say on.

THE PATTERN OF JUSTIN MARTYR AND OTHERS ON WEEKLY WORSHIP.

Justin Martyr Chapter LXVII.-Weekly Worship of the Christians.

"And we afterwards continually remind each other of these things. And the wealthy among us help the needy; and we always keep together; and for all things wherewith we are supplied, we bless the Maker of all through His Son Jesus Christ, and through the Holy Ghost.

JUSTIN: And on the day called Sunday, all who live in cities or in the country gather together to one place,
  and the
memoirs of the APOSTLES or the writings of PROPHETS the  are READ, as long as time permits;
then, when the reader has ceased,
   the
president verbally instructs,
   and EXHORTS
to the imitation of these good things.

Luke 4:16 And he came to Nazareth, where he had been brought up: and, as his custom was, he went into the synagogue on the sabbath day, and stood up for to read.

Acts 13:15 And after the
        READING of the law and the prophets
the rulers of the synagogue sent unto them, saying,
    Ye men and brethren, if ye have any word of EXHORTATION
    for the people, say on
.
\AND IN THE CHURCH: GOD NEEDS NO HELPERS.

Eph. 2:20 And are built upon [Educated in the Ekklesia]
   the foundation of the APOSTLES and PROPHETS, Jesus Christ himself being the chief corner stone;

Acts 15:21 For Moses of old time hath
        In every city them that PREACH him,
        being READ in the synagogues every sabbath day.

SABBATH MEANS REST: QUARANTINED FROM JERUSALEM

`Acts 13:27 For they that dwell at Jerusalem, and their RULERS,
        because they knew him not,
        nor yet the VOICES of the PROPHETS
        which are READ every sabbath day,
        they have fulfilled them in condemning him

God Sends forth Musicians to REMOVE all that offends. They will be baptized with spirit (wind or hot air) and FIRE. Jude says that they were FOREORDAINED to this Judgment.

Literal, visible-audible, worship often is defined as falling on your face.  Spiritual worship, Romans 10, demands silencing of all show and tell and give attention to the WORD. The Logos of god outlaws rhetoric, singing, playing instruments, acting or PAY TO PLAY.  The Christian School us UNFUNDED, once each week Reading assembly.

When this happens it is the MARK of the BEAST--a new style of music and drama. In Deuteronomy and exodus 32, profaning God,s day of REST God gave to the laity- At Sinai and Revelation 18, it was sorcery and beyond redemption.

Matt. 13:38 The field is the world;
        the good SEED are the children of the KINGDOM;
        but the tares are the children of the wicked one;
Matt. 13:39 The enemy that sowed [dna] them is the DEVIL;
        the harvest is the end of the world;  [Aion messianic Age]
        and the REAPERS are the ANGELS

Thence, swift as thought, he speeds from earth to Olympus, to the house of Zeus,

THE KITHERA MYSTERIES: suddenly organised and pianists lost their role and the GUITAR PICKER AND FAT GIRLS invaded;

"The psaltery a triangular instrument similar to a harp, produced gentler sound and would be more suitable for somewhat restrained and low-key events, as would be the kithara, an instrument similar to the lyre.

Both were traditional instruments played in a variety of events, public and private, and were often accompanied by song, either by the performer him/herself or a singer.  Aristotle attests that those musicians came from the lower social strata, and many of them, both men and women, were prostitutes hired to entertain guests in private parties.

Aeschines, for example, attests that Misgolas, one of the alleged lovers of Timarchos, had a reputation for being very fond of kithara boys, while Antiphanes and Alexis confirm this with jokes about Misgolas and his kithara boys. In Xenophon’s Symposion the beautiful boy who could play the kithara and dance aroused enthusiasm among the guests and made his master a lot of money.

Jude 14 And Enoch also, the seventh from Adam, prophesied of these, saying, Behold, the Lord cometh with ten thousands of his saints,
Jude 15 To execute judgment upon all, and to convince all that are ungodly among them of all their ungodly deeds which they have ungodly committed, and of all their hard speeches which ungodly sinners have spoken against him.
Jude 16 These are murmurers, complainers, walking after their own lusts; and their mouth speaketh great swelling words, having men’s persons in admiration because of advantage.

Jude 18 How that they told you there should be mockers in the last time, who should walk after their own ungodly lusts.

Rick Atchley and the Worship of the Beast.

POST MODERN THEOLOGY AND PARASITIC BLASPHEMERS.

The collection of documents in our bound volume, which we call the "Bible", have been honored by all honorable people as documents by Civil and Religious experiences with God.

No one would say that Plato was incompetent and unable to leave us a record of Plato's thoughts.
The Biblical Prophets

The New Covenant fulfilled the DEFINITION of the future REST (from clergy) for The Church of Christ both inclusively and exclusively.

2Pet. 1:3 According as his divine power
        hath given unto us all things that pertain unto life and godliness,
         through the knowledge of him that hath called us to glory and virtue:
2Pet. 1:4 Whereby are given unto us exceeding great and precious promises:
         that by these ye might be
                1. partakers of the divine nature,
                2. having escaped the corruption that is in the world through lust.

GOD DIDN'T GIVE RICK ATCHLEY OR ANY HUMAN THE RIGHT TO FILTER THE WORK OF THE HOLY SPIRIT OR COLLECT A WIDOW'S MITE.
 
2Pet. 1:19 We have also a more SURE WOR of prophecy;
         whereunto YE do well that ye take HEED, as unto a light that shineth in a dark place,
         until the day dawn, and the day star arise in your hearts:
2Pet. 1:20 Knowing this first, that no prophecy of the scripture is of any private interpretation.
2Pet. 1:21 For the prophecy came not in old time by the will of man:
         but holy men of God SPAKE as they were moved by the Holy SPIRIT.

Private Interpretation would be Rick Atchley FURTHER EXPOUNDING that which Jesus expounded and died to be the ONLY TEACHER.

Spirit has never and cannot be the name of a god or person. In relationship with God communicating His WORDS, God always has the power to put His WORD into the MOUTH of Jesus for the last time.

The New Covenant called the Christian System was defined and somewhat granted to the Godly Jews who went to the Synagogue ONCE each week to hear the WORD (only) PREACHED by being READ.

The "house" of God is the FAMILY of a local assembly and EXTRA help from outside is excludedThe Assembly is commanded to exclude personal pleasure including rhetoric, music, scenic.

HERE IS THE ONE PIECE PATTERN WHICH PROFESSIONAL RELIGIONISTS HAVE NEVER BEEN ABLE TO READ:

Rom. 15:4 For whatsoever things were WRITTEN AFORETIME
        were written for our learning,
        that we through patience and comfort of the SCRIPTURE might have hope.
Rom. 15:5 Now the God of patience and consolation
        grant you to be likeminded one toward another according to Christ Jesus:
Rom. 15:6 That ye may with ONE MIND one MOUTH glorify God,
        even the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ.


GOD PROVIDE NO FUNDING FOR ANY "STAFF" TO PROVIDE ANYTHING BEYOND EDUCATION IN HOLY SCRIPTURE WITHOUT ANY INPUT.  JESUS PROVIDED THE COMMAND AND EXAMPLE: YOU CAN INFER THAT HE WAS LYING.

  RiddebosP.483.jpeg

Rick Atchley and Cohort are NOT Christians.

John 8:26 I have many things to say and to judge of you:
        but he that sent me is TRUE;
        and I SPEAK to the world those things which I have HEARD of him.

ALL Theologians who have rejected Scripture which they must define based on the historical theologians. They are saying that God was the incompetent MIND and Jesus is out of date.

http://www.pineycom.com/Rick.Atchley.Law.of.Silence.html

John 8:27 They understood not that he spake to them of the Father.
John 8:28 Then said Jesus unto them,
        When ye have lifted up the Son of man,
        then shall ye know that I am he,
        and that I do NOTHING of myself;
        but as my Father hath TAUGHT me,
        I SPEAK these things.

Jesus defined Holy Scripture as the PROPHETS and PROPHECIES "Concerning me."  The prophets define the REST from Atchley both inclusively and exclusively.  That is an APPROVED example and INFERENCE for any literate

John 8:29 And he that sent me is with me:
        the Father hath not left me alone;
        for I do always those things that please him.
John 8:30 As he spake these words, many believed on him.
John 8:31 Then said Jesus to those Jews which believed on him,
        IF ye continue in MY word, THEN are ye my disciples indeed;
John 8:32 And ye shall know the truth,
        and the truth shall make you free.

Disciples are BAPTIZED to receive A holy spirit without which you CANNOT know the Truth and therefore people are underbondage to Rick Atchley.  Jude uses the Mount Sinai Instrumental-Trinitarian-Perverted Idolatry to show that NOT Continuing in THE FAITH once delivered were FOREORDAINED to force people to take the MARK were the BEAST is a sudden New Style of Music and Satyric (all self exhibition is effeminate.)  Apollyon put's HIS WORDS into the mouth of the Locusts or Muses over which he is the Musical Worship Ministers.
The WORD in John 1 was never a person but the MIND of God made visible and audible in Jesus who came in the flesh.  What the predestined Musical Church Stealers can never understand

See Rick Atchley's Bible Below

Jesus was sent INTO but not OF the World to rescue a tiny band of Lost Spirits.  Those OF the World, the Kosmos, the Ecumenical or the kingdom of the Devil who is a ruler of the world and almost all of the Aborigines. Jesus said that He and His Disciples were from ABOVE but those from whom God hides are from BENEATH or Tartarus.  There is nothing musical in the messsage to the WAY (pattern) that is called a SECT.  The world is separated out by Apollyon's Locusts or the Muses as his 'musical worship Team." All Sorcery, witchcraft or anything that artificially attacks the human spirit is proven to be MUSIC of any kind.

ALL colleges who prepare pulpit pastors for whom there is no role and no dole INDOCTRINATE and do the opposite of EDUCATE.  Faithful evangelists will neve be rich or popular.

Jesus said that God HIDES from the Wise or Sophists who speak their own words and are called by Jesus "the sons of the Devil", singers, instrument players or anything beyond TEACH that which has been taught.  We want to call deliberate sowers of discord Biblically Illiterate but Jesus had Paul say that THEY ARE LYING IN WAIT TO DECEIVE.

FIRST: As BEASTS or Therion they are New Style Musicians or Satyric Actors. 

The.Mark.of.The.Beast
The BEAST is "a new style of music or Satyric (cappella) Drama with Christ's enemy of almost all pulpits.

Satyric Drama One of the three varieties of the Attic drama. Its origin may be traced back to Pratinas of Phlius (about B.C. 500). It is probable that, after settling in Athens, he adapted the old dithyramb with its chorus of Satyrs, which was customary in his native place, to the form of tragedy which had been recently invented in Athens. This new kind of drama met with so much approval and was so much developed by Pratinas himself as well as by his son Aristeas, by Choerilus, by Aeschylus, and the dramatists who succeeded him, that it became the custom to act a satyric drama after a set of three tragedies. The intensity of the preceding plays was thus relieved, while the chorus of Satyrs and Sileni, the companions of Dionysus, served to indicate the original connection between that divinity and the drama. The material for a satyric drama, like that for a tragedy, was taken from an epic or legendary story, and the action, which took place under an open sky, in a lonely wood, the haunt of the Satyrs, had generally an element of tragedy; but the characteristic solemnity and stateliness of tragedies was somewhat diminished, without in any way impairing the splendour of the tragic costume and the dignity of the heroes introduced. The amusing effect of the play did not depend so much on the action itself, as was the case in comedy, but rather on the relation of the chorus to that action.

Strab. 10.3.10   And on this account Plato, and even before his time the Pythagoreians, [Puthagoreioi] called philosophy music;1 and they say that the universe is constituted in accordance with harmony,2 assuming that every form of music is the work of the gods.

        And in this sense, also, the Muses are goddesses,
        and Apollon is leader of the Muses, and poetry as a whole is laudatory of the gods.

And by the same course of reasoning they also attribute to music the upbuilding of morals, believing that everything which tends to correct the mind is close to the gods.

When Paul wanted everyone to pray for peace and silence to prevent and outbreak of WRATH the word is Orge or Orgy.  Work (ergon) and a musical instrument (organon) are all ORGY words.

Now most of the Greeks assigned to Dionysus, Apollon, Hecate, the Muses, and above all to Demeter, everything of an orgiastic or Bacchic or choral nature, as well as the mystic element in initiations; and they give the name "Iacchus" not only to Dionysus but also to the leader-in-chief of the mysteries, who is the genius of Demeter. And branch-bearing, choral dancing, and initiations are common elements in the worship of these gods. As for the Muses and Apollo, the Muses preside over the choruses, whereas Apollo presides both over these and the rites of divination [mantikos  daimonion]. But all educated men, and especially the musicians, are ministers of the Muses; and both these and those who have to do with divination are ministers of Apollo; and the initiated and torch-bearers and hierophants, of Demeter; and the Sileni and Satyri and Bacchae, and also the Lenae and Thyiae and Mimallones and Naďdes and Nymphae and the beings called Tityri, of Dionysus.

Tom Burgess Pericles and Instrumental Music

The master that taught him music, most authors are agreed, was Damon (whose name, they say, ought to be pronounced with the first syllable short). Though Aristotle tells us that he was thoroughly practised in all accomplishments of this kind by Pythoclides.

Damon, it is not unlikely, being a sophist, out of policy, sheltered himself

under the profession of music to conceal from people in general his skill in other things, and under this pretence attended Pericles, the young athlete of politics, so to say, as his training - master in these exercises.

Damon`s lyre, however, did not prove altogether a successful blind; he was banished the country by ostracism for ten years, as a dangerous inter - meddler and a favorer of arbitrary power,
........... and, by this means, gave the stage occasion to play upon him.

Beside the deep-blue water [180] and on the tangled grass, I happened to be drying purple robes in the sun's golden blaze near the young reed shoots; from my mistress, from where she cried aloud her misery, [185] I heard a sound, a mournful song not fit for the lyre, because she was then shrieking, lamenting with her wails; just as a Naiad nymph, who sends a song of woe ringing over the hills, cries out, under the rocky hollows, with screams [190] at the rape of Pan.

THIRD:

1. Israel fell from grace beyond redemption because of Instrumental-Trinitarian-Perverted Idolatry at Mount Sinai.
2. The NOBILITY turned the REST of God into a day of the Worship as the ABOMINATION they brought from Egypt.
3. The REST of God is Sabbath or the Greek PAUO and demands STOPPING anything beyond Rest, Reading and Rehearsing the Word delivered by Moses.
4. The Civil-Military-Clergy were abandoned behind closed gates to engage in the Lust of Blood and Flesh and the HOLOCAUST of INFANTS and GOATS.
5. The Godly Jews were never gathered to engage in group singing with or without instruments: this was outlawed for the SYNAGOGUE as A School--only of the Word-only.
6. Any kind of musical or theatrical performance would MARK the Effeminate and their refusal to HEAR the Word of God.
7. Even worse any kind of self-exhibition especially SINGING is that which MARKS and produces ALL of the data defining:

FOURTH:

Paul commanded SPEAKING the Biblical Text (Word of Christ,   SPIRIT
Paul commanded that ODE and PSALLO be IN the heart or mind and therefore SILENT as in 1 Corinthings 14

Lexis.Ode.gif

Paul absolutely SILENCED anything beyond SPEAK or READ as commanded for the Church in the Wilderness and exampled by Jesus.

Acts 8:28 Was returning, and sitting in his chariot read Esaias the prophet.
Acts 15:21 For Moses of old time hath
        in every city them that preach him,
        being read in the synagogues every sabbath day.
2Cor. 3:14 But their minds were blinded:
        for until this day remaineth the same vail untaken away
        in the reading of the old testament; which vail is done away in Christ.
Col. 4:16 And when this epistle is read among you,
        cause that it be read also in the church of the Laodiceans;
        and that ye likewise read the epistle from Laodicea. 

The word that is employed for this "anaginosko, anagnosis) is the technical term for the
cultic reading aloud of the Old Testament in the synagogue. By applying this terminology to the reading of his own epistles he not only ascribes the same authority to the apostolic word as to the Old Testament writings...he also combines a quotation from the Old Testament with a word of Jesus and introduces the whole with the familiar formula: 'for the Scripture says.'" (Ridderbos, Hermon, Paul, P. 483 an Outline of His Theo., Eerdmans)

FIFTH:    Paul SILENCED Psallo because when used by pagans. 

The Greek PSALLO used as THE foundation for imposing any kind of MUSICAL PERFORMANCE is most often used of an older male such as Alexander the Great Plucking his lyre to seduce a young male whos pubic hairs had been plucked


The Evil Psallo 
psallo , i, 3, v. n., = psallō.   I.
In gen., to play upon a stringed instrument; esp., to play upon the cithara, to sing to the cithara: “psallere
saltare elegantius,Sall. C. 25, 2  canituri,”  SING and cantare marked as SORCERY.    saltare et cantare; Cic. Catil. 2.10.23   Suet. Tit. 3

Sal. Cat. 25 Sempronia: She had frequently, before this period, forfeited her word, forsworn debts, been privy to murder, and hurried into the utmost excesses by her extravagance and poverty. But her abilities were by no means despicable;3 she could compose verses, jest, and join in conversation either modest, tender, or licentious. In a word, she was distinguished4 by much refinement of wit, and much grace of expression.

1 XXV. Sempronia] Of the same gens as the two Gracchi. She was the wife of Decimus Brutus.

2 Sing, play, and dance] “Psallere, saltare.” As psallo signifies both to play on a musical instrument, and to sing to it while playing, I have thought it necessary to give both senses in the translation.

Not included by Paul: PsalmOidia singing TO a harp.

Not included by Paul: PsaltOideo sing to the harp
        2 Chron 5:[13]  it happened, when the trumpeters and singers were as one, to make one sound to be heard [one tuned note all in unison]

Not included by Paul:  Psaltos sung to the harp, sung OF Translated sing in Psalm 119:54

Saltatio   Dancing was originally closely connected with religion. Plato thought all dancing should be based on religion, as it was, he says, among the Egyptians. It has been shown under Chorus that the chorus in the oldest times consisted of the whole population of a city, who met in a public place to offer up thanksgivings to the god of their country by singing hymns and performing dances. These dances, which, like all others, were accompanied by music,
--dēlĭcĭae , ārum, f. (sing. dēlĭcĭa , ae, f.; [delicio; that which allures, flatters the senses], delight, pleasure, charm, allurement; deliciousness, luxuriousness, voluptuousness, curiosities of art; sport, frolics, etc. (freq. and class.; for syn. cf.: voluptas, libido, delectatio, oblectatio, delectamentum, oblectamentum).
The Evil Psallo psallere saltare   ēlĕgans   I. In the ante-class. period in a bad sense, luxurious, effeminate, fastidious, nice: elegans homo non dicebatur cum laude “mulier (Phrynewith formosa),
Cic. Catil. 2.10.23 In these bands are all the gamblers,
        all the adulterers, all the unclean and shameless citizens.
        These boys, so witty and delicate,
        have learnt not only to love and to be loved,
            not only to sing and to dance,
            but also to brandish daggers and to administer poisons;
       and unless they are driven out,
       unless they die, even should Catiline die, 
       I warn you that the school of Catiline would exist in the republic.
But what do those wretches want? Are they going to take their wives with them to the camp? how can they do without them, especially in these nights? and how will they endure the Apennines, and these frosts, and this snow?
      unless they think that they will bear the winter more easily
      because they have been in the habit of dancing naked at their feasts. O
war much to be dreaded, when Catiline is going to have his bodyguard of prostitutes!

Suet. Tit. 3 While yet a boy, he was remarkable for his noble endowments both of body and mind; and as he advanced in years, they became still more conspicuous.
        He had a fine person, combining an equal mixture of majesty and grace;
        was very strong, though not tall, and somewhat corpulent.
Gifted with an excellent memory, and a capacity for all the arts of peace and war; he was a perfect master of the use of arms and riding; very ready in the Latin and Greek tongues,
        both in verse and prose; and such was the facility he possessed in both,
        that he would harangue and VERSIFY extempore.
        Nor was he unacquainted with MUSIC,
                but could both SING and PLAY upon the HARP sweetly and scientifically.
        I have likewise been informed by many persons,
                that he was remarkably quick in writing short-hand,
                would in merriment and jest engage with his secretaries
                in the imitation of any hand-writing he saw, and often say, "
                that he was admirably qualified for forgery."
The Evil Psallo includes: Phrȳ , ēs, f., = Phrunē.
I. A celebrated hetśra in Athens, so wealthy that she offered to rebuild the city of Thebes after it had been destroyed by Alexander: “nec quae deletas potuit componere Thebas Phryne,Prop. 2, 6, 6; cf. Quint. 2, 15, 9; Val. Max. 4, 3, ext. 3.—

Why Males in the Post-Biblical Effeminate Church are Disguised as Empty Pews or Hostile Masculines: it Will Get Worse! "Of the Effeminate Willow-Creek "Holy Entertainment" System: "The cost of this approach is hard work and loads of strife with church insiders." Christianity Today

"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.

"Women and girls from the different ranks of society were proud to enter the service of the gods as singers and musicians. The understanding of this service was universal: these singers constituted the 'harem of the gods'." (End of Quasten)

Delitzsch on Psalms: Moreover, we must take into consideration the facts that the compass of the tenor extends even into the soprano, that the singers were of different ages down to twenty years of age, and that Oriental, and more particularly even Jewish, song is fond of falsetto singing. We therefore adopt Perret- Gentil's rendering, chant avec voix de femmes, and still more readily Armand de Mestral's, en soprano; whereas Melissus' rendering, "upon musical instruments called Alamoth (the Germans would say, upon the virginal)," has nothing to commend it.

"Hebrew music... was used in the luxurious times of the later monarchy the effeminate gallants of israel, reeking with perfumes, and stretched upon their couches of ivory, were wont at their banquets to accompany the song with the tinkling of the psaltery or guitar (Am. v1. 4-6), and amused themselves with devising musical instruments while their nation was perishing... music was the legitimate expression of mirth and gladness, and the indication of peace and prosperity." (Smith's Bible Dictionary, Music, p. 590).

Christians assemble to Read Together the LECTIONS which were circulated before collected to become "that which is perfect" the Perfict Will of God if you are A Christian.

Preaching as HOMILECTICS is the ANTITHESIS and, like Rhetoric, is used by unbelievers to STEAL IN while you are put to sleep by the Locusts or Muses.

The Abomination of Desolation: first defined as the instrumental-trinitarian worship at Mount Sinai.

5.07.16   Before the POST-CIVILIZED dying of civilization Cicero had a few words for priests parallel to the Bible which says Jesus, God HID from the Wise, Sophists meaning self-authoring preachers for sale, singers, instrument players or ANY audience feeds them with a dole for which Jesus excluded any role.
  1. Jesus said that Doctors of the law take away the key to knowledge: so we manufacture a host of doctors of the law.
  2. Jesus said that these doctors as Scribes or Pharisees are hypocrites.
  3. The Spirit OF Christ in Isaiah 29 and Ezekiel 33 named self-authoring preachers, singers or instrument players as these hypocrites.
  4. The universal mark of musical noises in the "school of the Word" is silencing the Teacher and also of BURNING.
CICERO one of the scholars the people need to dig themselves out of Control-Religionists DARK AGES. They missed that when John T. Willis the father of the prophesied apostasy says that MELODY always demands musical INSTRUMENTS. He learned that the Spirit OF God was another God Person who led a lady beyond the sacred pages.  Grammar grade 6 debunks those who cannot grasp prepositions and John said that to deny the ONE GOD THE FATHER and ONE LORD or Son Jesus was the mark of ANTICHRIST.

Behold, behold, O priests, this religious man,
        and if it seems good to you, (and it is only the duty of virtuous priests,)
        warn him that there are some fixed limits to religion
        that a man ought not to be too superstitious.

Why was it necessary for you, O fanatical man, with an old woman's superstition,
        to go to see a sacred ceremony which was being performed at another person's house?

        And how was it that you were possessed with such weakness of mind
        as to think it not possible for the gods to be sufficiently propitiated,
        unless YOU intruded yourself into the religious ceremonies of women?

Can you, O priests, avoid being influenced by the authority of this man,
        so chaste, so religious, so holy, so pious a man,
        when he says that he, with his own hands,
        pulled down the house of a most virtuous citizen,
        and with the same hands consecrated it to the gods?

Been there, done that three times under the COHORTS organized for the last time (KAIROS).

What was that consecration of yours?
        “I had carried a bill,” says he, “to make it lawful for me to act.”
        What? had you not inserted this clause in it,
        that if there was anything contrary to what was right in the bill, it should be invalid?

will you then, O priests, by your decision,
        establish the point that it is right that the home of every one of you,
        and your altars, and your hearths, and your household gods,
        should be at the mercy of the caprice of the tribunes?

that it is right for any one, not only to throw down the house of that man
        whom he may have chosen to attack with a body of excited men,
        and may have driven away by violence,—which is an act of present insanity,
                like the effect of a sudden terror,—
                but for him to bind that man and property for all future time
                by the everlasting obligation of religion?


Excited Men performing religious rhetoric, singing, playing instruments were not considered manly and were priests of the Mother Goddess who might also be male.

Excited.

A Critic of the NACC noted that only the NOBILITY including key agents claiming to belong to Christ dominate and only they have the right to SELL books, bookings and sermons. The denominational leaders presumed to lay hands on and ordain their new AGENT to the CHILDREN.  Atchley said we taught our youth to leave our movement. That would be fine but the movement is back to babylon. NONE of the obscene "worship leaders" look any better:

Surprise! God doesn't love fleecers who bring any kind of music in the holy places and He turns it into howling.  That is the "praise singing" as the world's OLDEST profession. This is what the godly show up as EMPTY PEWS see and hear when the guys begin to sell themselves in the name of love. Neither does God love sowers of discord.
Amos 8:2 And he said, Amos, what seest thou?
        And I said, A basket of summer fruit [gay troubadours] .
Then said the LORD unto me,
        The end is come upon my people of Israel;
        I will not again pass by them any more.
Amos 8:3 And the songs of the temple shall be howlings in that day, saith the Lord GOD: 
        there shall be many dead bodies in every place;
        they shall cast them forth with silence.

They and their harps will be tossed into Sheol

Those who sang at the PLACE of CAPPELLA sang ORGANUM and the Sistine Chapel is named after a goat skin shrine. Cappella is the SHE goat althought she may be male: she sings tragedies or songs intended to MOVE which history calls sorcery (Revelation 18).

When God pours out His Wrath or Orgy Paul warned about from both men and women He turns them into BUFFOONS and the WORLD, Kosmos, Ecumenical or the kingdom of Satan just claps and claps and claps.

"The music over ruled the veto of destiny and filled the entire space, imparting to all of us with its impetuous, invincible bounty a feeling of exultation, as thought a torrent of strange energies had sprung from the dauntless melody the clown blew on his flute as he sat on the railing of the circus.

Later I thought of this clown of the flute as a grotesque modern form of the great god Pan of the forest whom the Greeks worshipped as the symbol of cosmic vitality--serene, goat-footed Pan who plays the sacred syrinx (pan pipes) in the sinking dusk and with its magic sound evokes an echo in all things: leaves and fountains shiver, the stars begin to tremble, and the shaggy goats dance at the edge of the grove. (qtd. in Kinsley, David R. The Sword and the Flute: 33, n. 49)

Judas was prophesied to RESTORE the vocal or instrumental rejoicing God left as a MARK of those who would and did musically mock Jesus to the cross.  The Judas Bag or Box was left for us on EARTHEN VESSELS and it is always attached to a tipsy and naked New Wineskins assassins.  It is always attached to the flute case: watch for it the next time the Peter Pans assault the godly:

The instrumental-trinitarian-perverted rising up AGAINST God in PLAY engaged in unnatural lust. God sentenced

them to captivity and death. He gave the Jacob-cursed and God-abandoned Levites to stand guard and execute any of those not of the abandoned Civil-Military-Clergy who came near the BURNING of Goats which is Rick Atchley's pattern it seems that A spirit told him was his pattern.  The only personified spirit is named Apollon-Abaddon and he is the leader of the Muses or Locusts

All musical terms and names of instruments point to sorcery or witchcraft. That is because the witch of Endor used an old wineskin stretched over a hole in the ground as her "familiar spirit." Bone flutes made a sound the earliest witch doctor understood to create the laded burden or "spiritual anxiety" through rituals performed by cunning craftsmen or sophists: rhetoricians, singers, instrument players, actors, dancers or even prostitute who could "bring you into the presence of the gods" -- for a price.

Jude 3 Beloved, when I gave all diligence to write unto you of the common salvation,
        it was needful for me to write unto you,
        and exhort you that ye should earnestly contend for THE FAITH
        which was once delivered unto the saints.
Jude 4 For there are certain men crept in unawares,
        who were before of old ordained to this condemnation,
        ungodly men, turning the grace of our God into lasciviousness,
        and denying the
                only Lord God,
                and
                our Lord Jesus Christ.  [Trinitarian Antichrists according to John]
Jude 5 I will therefore put you in remembrance, though ye once knew this,
        how that the Lord, having saved the people out of the land of Egypt,
        afterward destroyed them that believed not.
Jude 6 And the angels which kept not their first estate,
        but left their own habitation,

RICK ATCHLEY'S COMMAND TO IMPOSE "INSTRUMENTAL PRAISE."

2Chr. 29:27 And Hezekiah commanded to offer the burnt offering upon the altar.
        And when the burnt offering began, the song of the LORD began also with the trumpets,
        and with the instruments ordained by David king of Israel.

Hezekiah stopped the sacrifice of infants with the instrumental noise of the Levites who were an old Egyptian Infant burning priesthood.  As soon as Hezekiah died the sacrifices to Moloch began all over again. And THIS IS THE PATTERN of those LYING IN WAIT TO DECEIVE.


The triumphal hymn of Moses had unquestionably a religious character about it; but the employment of music in religious services, though idolatrous, is more distinctly marked in the festivities which attended the erection of the golden calf." (Smith's Bible Dictionary, Music, p. 589).

Chrysostom's Commentary on Galatians:
Galatians 5:1.-"With freedom did Christ set us free; stand fast therefore.115 ."
Ver. 12. "I would that they which unsettle you would even cut themselves off." And he says well "that unsettle you."A man that is heretical after the first and second admonition refuse." (Tit. iii: 10) If they will,  let them not only be circumcised, but mutilated. Where then are those who dare to mutilate themselves; seeing that they draw down the Apostolic curse, and accuse the workmanship of God, and take part with the Manichees?

Chrysostom understood that the pagans used vocal or instrumental noise to stir up or create anxiety so that they could steal your food money. Christ outlawed this in Isaiah 55.  Christ outlawed BLASPHEMY in the modern context of saying that God commanded instrumental distractions when  He DID NOT.

But if you will not allow this,  why do you not mutilate the tongue for blasphemy, the hands for rapine, the feet for their evil courses, in short, the whole body?

Led As A Lamb Before The Slaughter: Proven when the preacher and singers won't let Jesus get a word in edgewise
Divination and Lectio Divina

People DO hear a spirit telling them that God commanded instrumental praise. Spiritus in latin speaks of the spirit OF Abaddon or Apollyon; he is unleashed as the king of the LOCUSTS. The Locusts for the reading public are the MUSES.  The muses were dirty adulterers and SHEPHERDS under Apollo at Delphi just up the road from Corinth.

Those who get a vision to MOCK JESUS in fulfillment of prophecy ALSO rush to remove CHRIST from their public confession.  The Levites were called soothsayer- sorcerers: they played loud instruments to make the lambs AND INFANTS dumb before the slaughter or burning.

Ex. 32:25 And when Moses saw that the people were naked; (for Aaron had made them naked unto their shame among their enemies:)
Ex. 32:25  Moses saw that the people were running wild and that Aaron had let them get out of control and so become a laughingstock to their enemies

WHY SAYING THAT GOD COMMANDS (AND DOES NOT OUTLAW) MUSICAL INSTRUMENTS (MACHINES) FOR THE ASSEMBLY (SCHOOL ONLY OF THE WORD ONLY) IS BLASPHEMY EVEN IF DELIBERATELY SOWING DISCORD AND FLEECING THE LAMBS TO FEED THE STAFF ALWAYS IDENTIFIED IN RELIGIONISM AS PARASITES.

Isaiah 5:5 And now go to; I will tell you what I will do to my vineyard:
        I will take away the hedge thereof, and it shall be eaten up;
        and break down the wall thereof, and it shall be trodden down:
Isaiah 5:6 And I will lay it waste: it shall not be pruned, nor digged; but there shall come up briers and thorns:
        I will also command the clouds that they rain no rain upon it.

Amos 8:11 Behold, the days come, saith the Lord GOD, that I will send a famine in the land, not a famine of bread, nor a thirst for water, but of hearing the words of the LORD:
Amos 8:12 And they shall wander from sea to sea, and from the north even to the east, they shall run to and fro to seek the word of the LORD, and shall not find it.
Amos 8:13 In that day shall the fair virgins and young men faint for thirst.

Isaiah 5:7 For the vineyard of the LORD OF hosts is the house of Israel, and the men of Judah his pleasant plant:
        and he looked for judgment, but behold oppression; for righteousness, but behold a cry.

Because of musical idolatry of the Egyptian trinity at Mount Sinai God turned the over to worship the HOSTS of heaven insteadof the Creator of the hosts. (Acts 7)

2.  BUT, he was not considering the operation of his instrument panel.
3.  THEREFORE, the plane crashed.

In Amos 8 the people hungered and thirsted for the WORD of God and were taken into captivity:
God said I WILL NOT PASS THIS WAY AGAIN, FOR EVER.

MUSIC in the Bible and other literature MEANS "to make the lambs dumb before the slaughter."

Jesus pleads: could you not tarry with me for one hour.  Can you REALLY think that "a spirit" told you that God commanded instrumental praise in YOUR happy church of Christ and I INTEND to make certain that YOU do not disobey what "a" spirit told me to do: Sorry, I promised not to do that to you but THAT was THEN and THIS is NOW.  Sorry that we have discorded your happy family but our LADIES will help your life-long wife escape you because YOU dared to oppose us.  Sorry that up to half of the owners will have to cast themselves our of their synagogue they paid for but we will help you find ANOTHER institution.  "Besides, we warned you--like they said to J.W.McGarvey--that you have to get over it or get out.

MUSIC in the Bible and other literature MEANS "to make the lambs dumb before the slaughter." The Levites were soothsaysers or sorcerers which is the PURPOSE DRIVING both instruments and instrumentalists.

The Spirit OF Christ gave APT elders to a TRUE Church of Christ as A School of the Word or Logos which is the Regulative principle. Before Paul defines that education-only asssembly with no parasitic staff, any APT elder must first eject or cast out the Musical Madhatters just as Jesus CAST OUT the minstrels and NOISE makers which define the Covenant with Death and Hell in Amos. They are cunning craftsmen or SOPHISTS: God does not speak to or through the WIDE or Sophists and HIDES from them: they are self speakers violating the PATTERN Christ defined in Isaiah 58 and Ezekiel 33, singers and instrument players.

From the singing and harp playing prostitute in the Garden of Eden to the Babylon Mother of Harlots (fruits) in Revelation 17, they as Paul said in Ephesians 4 LIE IN WAIT TO DECEIVE.  Religious music is therefore called SORCERY using the name for the original Babylon Mother of Harlots.  All of the Bible and historic literature proves that they intend to HURT you by inducing a charismatic or madness (says Paul) which they CLAIM is a spirit person speaking to you THROUGH them--and you must pay them, too.
ALL instrument SMITING words carry the meaning of a violent attack. Nimrod and modern science knows that music is an emotional attach upon a large part of the population.

  1. Therefore, if you say that Psallo means or has any connection to instrumental worship you say that the Spirit OF Christ was just too ignorant to understand what Simple Simon understood: it always takes 3 or 4 words to define (1) sing and (3) pluck or smite and (4) the name of an instruments: you still need a melody which might consist of just one note.
  2. Or you ALWAYS use Compound words for each type of instrument with or without an instruments.
  3. You therefore despise the Spirit OF God (His, the only one)
  4. To despise the WORD (logos, regulative principle) is the word BLASPHEMY.

Jesus and the Apostles SPOKE (Dicto) ONE hymn until same time next year. The command for those NOT taken captive by Abaddon and his muses is to SPEAK that which is written for our learning. LEXIS is opposite of ODE and ODE is the opposite of LEXIS.

The PSALLO as a warfare and perversion mark is IN (En, Eis) the heart and is therefore SILENT.  The Lord is in His Holy Temple let all the earth keep silent before Him

MUSIC in the Bible and other literature MEANS "to make the lambs dumb before the slaughter." God punished people with the things they worship. For instance, the serpents in the wilderness bit those devoted to fire and serpent worship to which Good abandoned Israel BECAUSE of instrumental idolatry at Mount Sinai.

The Muses are the LOCUSTS and ABADDON is the spiritus who speaks to and leads them. Their task is to DRIVE OUT the godly and preserve the ungodly for easy pickup time.

REJOICE AND BE GLAD the major HIT happened exactly 6,000 years after Moses wrote the history of Israel AFTER the fall into instrumental idolatry at Mount Sinai, God sentenced them to captivity and death and Moses wrote a godly version of the Babylon Tablets to warn the tiny remnant able to read BLACK text on BROWN paper.

John agrees with Scripture and recorded history to MARK the rhetoricians, singers, instrument players (Sophists, Hypocrite says Jesus) as SORCERERS.  Paul warned about them by the word Concision and Dogs or Catamites. People who claim that God did NOT use instruments as the MARK are liars: Sorcerers, Dogs and Liars will be (being) cast alive into the Lake of Fire.

Don't drink no KoolAid and drink no SPIRITS of people whom Paul in Ephesians 4 LIE IN WAIT TO DECEIVE.

Arnobius, Heresies IV May it not happen, may it not come to pass, although you craftily conceal it, that the one should take the other's place, deluding, mocking, deceiving, and presenting the appearance of the deity invoked?

If the magi, who ares o much akin to soothsayers [Levites], relate that, in their incantations, pretended gods steal in frequently instead of those invoked;  that some of these, moreover, are spirits of grosser substance, who pretend that they are gods, and delude the ignorant by their lies and deceit,-  why should we not similarly believe that here, too, others substitute themselves for those who are not, that they may both strengthen your superstitious beliefs, and rejoice that victims are slain in sacrifice to them under names not their own?

33. Your gods, it is recorded, dine on celestial couches, and in golden chambers, drink,
        and are at last soothed by the music of the lyre, and singing .
        You fit them with ears not easily wearied;
        and do not think it unseemly to assign to the gods
        the pleasures by which earthly bodies are supported,
        and which are sought after by ears enervated by the frivolity of an unmanly spirit.

2.26.10  Kairos-Ethos Church Planting Daimon has come down to you

See Rick Gibson Pepperdine approves the Kairos-Ethos Church Planting scheme.  Rick Gibson and Mike Cope plan to establish a group (sect) to DEprogram young preachers and teach them how to leave the Biblical definition of A Church of Christ as A School (only) of the Prophets and Apostles as the only EDUCATIONAL resource for building up or educating Disciples of Christ who do not attend pagan worship rituals were music from mystery means to "make the lambs dumb before the slaughter."

WOE:  for the devil is come down unto you, having great wrath,  because he knoweth that he hath but a short TIME  [kairon  ekhei ETHOS.’] Rev. 12:12
"Just remember: when you're reading your Greek Testament and come upon kairos: stop, look and listen, because the Holy Spirit is flashing a caution light, warning of a coming crisis, an eminent judgment. That's why Jesus used the word more than once to predict his own crucifixion." Quote

The "harp" passages in Revelation used as AUTHORITY prove that no one PLAYS harps: when you hear the SOUNDS-LIKE harps from your musical worship team, another angel warns of JUDGMENT where such sounds produce panic and commands that the living preach the gospel to ALL NATIONS. 

Paul in Ephesians 4 says that Christ gave the gift of APT elders as the only pastor teachers: that is the limit of a Church. First, they have to root out the cunning craftsmen or Sophists: Sophists or rhetoricians, singers, instrument players or actors.  Jesus said that God HIDES from all of these CRAFTY CRAFTS and He called the Scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites: in Ezekiel 33 Christ names the same speakers, singers or instrument players.  Better to debate with three empty chairs than dig up one example of any music connected with the Qahal, synagogue, ekklesia or Church of Christ (the Rock) in the wilderness.

Paul insists that the gifted ELDERS eject the rhetoricians, singers and instrument players because they are not just Bible illititerate (bad enough with a PhDuh) but THEY LIE IN WAIT TO DECEIVE. That is their ordained destiny because they are OF the WORLD doing COSMIC WORSHIP for whom Jesus will not even pray.  John said that the speakers, singers and instrument players in Revelation 18 are SORCERERS (named after the original Babylon mother of harlots) who HAD deceived the whole world once (Genesis 1:1 where the Elohim cast down or made the earth vain and ignorant).

Paul warned against people who CORRUPT the Word (Logos: regulative principle). The word means to sell learning at wholesale and also means prostitution. All of history and modern observations of the Androgynous Worship Leader explains why people leave such churches which gladly remove CHRIST from their public confession.

Heredotus 1: Cyrus was told how to NEUTER captives to keep them under control. Power grabbing preachers who want to be MASTERS (Authoratative Teachers) have KEEPING THEM UNDER CONTROL is absolutely necessary less they grasp that Jesus died to pry the burden laders off our backs: the Laded Burdens are types of repeating songs which perform the act of WITCHCRAFT with a boiling pot of frog yes.

Grant, then, forgiveness to the Lydians, and to make sure of their never rebelling against thee, or alarming thee more,
send and forbid them to keep any weapons of war,
         command them
to wear tunics under their cloaks,
         and to put buskins upon their legs,

.........and make them bring up their sons to cithern-playing (Kitharizein),
          and
singing (psallein),
..........and shop-keeping (Hucksterism). [Corrupting the Word]
So wilt thou soon see them become WOMEN instead of men,
and there will be no more fear of their revolting from thee."

Any kind of performing music when Jesus told us to SPEAK that which is written INTENDS to bring glory and more "Authority" to THE Alpah Malel.

Croesus thought the Lydians would even so be better off than if they were sold for slaves, and therefore gave the above advice to Cyrus, knowing that, unless he brought forward some notable suggestion, he would not be able to persuade him to alter his mind. He was likewise afraid lest,after escaping the danger which now pressed, the Lydians at some future time might revolt from the Persians and so bring themselves to ruin.

Of Course, the invasion of the "Musical Worship Ministers" proves that they had rather NOT be slaves

2.23.14     WHY ONLY A LITTLE FLOCK ARE WILLING TO UNDERGO THE DISCIPLINE OF A DISCIPLE OR APPRENTICE.

"Not surprisingly, most Israelites declined the prophet's invitation to enter into a dialog with Yahweh.  They preferred a less demanding religion of cultic observance either in the Jerusalem Temple or in the old fertility cults of Canaan.  This continues to  be the case: the religion of compassion is followed only by a minority; most religious people are content with decorous worship in synagogue, church, temple and mosque.

"The ancient Canaanite religions were still flourishing in Israel... the Israelites were still taking part in fertility rites and sacred sex there, as we see in the oracles of the prophet Hosea, Amos' contemporary.  (Armstrong, Karen, A History of God, p. 47).

Matthew 22:13 Then said the king to the servants,
        Bind him hand and foot, and take him away,
        and cast him into outer darkness; there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth.
Matthew 22:14 For many [most] are called [kleto invited], but few are chosen. [eklektoi]

Eklektos picked out, selected choice, pure II. chosen of God, elect, LXXIs.43.20, Ev.Marc.13.20,
Hebrews 11:6 But without faith it is impossible to please him:
        for he that cometh to God must believe that he is,
        and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him.
[the only 'worship' concept]

Matthew 22:15 Then went the Pharisees,
        and took counsel how they might entangle him in his talk.

The Jews were ignorant of the Prophets and mercinary wanted Jesus to tell them something beyond the text.

Matthew 22:18 But Jesus perceived their wickedness,
        and said, Why tempt ye me, ye hypocrites?

Jesus called the Scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites: in the Ezekiel 22 version the Spirit OF Christ named favor-seeking speakers, singers and instrument players.

It's a fact: Jesus never said "thou shalt NOT be a hypocrite" but the GOSPEL is:

Matthew 11:25 At that time Jesus answered and said, I thank thee, O Father, Lord of heaven and earth, because thou hast HID these things from the wise [sophōn] and prudent,
and hast revealed them unto babes.


The Wise are Sophists: speakers, singers, instrument players especially "melody in a holy place." This marks the worship of Sophia the goddess as opposed to patriarchal worship.

Matthew 11:26 Even so, Father: for so it seemed good in thy sight.
Matthew 11:27 All things are delivered unto me of my Father:
        and no man knoweth the Son, but the Father;
        neither knoweth any man the Father, save the Son,
        and he to whomsoever the Son will reveal him.

Those who are washed with water INTO the Word or Logos or into the School of Christ.  A babe never presumes to REtell and correct the Father.

The Son will not reveal the Father among the "many" which will never collect around the Word.


Matthew 11:28 Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden,
           Heavy laden by the wise or Sophists means "arousal music and tithes and offerings

        and I will give you REST.
Rest as Sabbath and rest as PAUO means to Stop the speaking, singing, playing or acting.
Why a Disciple of Christ or a Christian will STOP whatever they invent:

Matthew 11:29 Take my yoke upon you,
        and learn of ME; for I am meek and lowly in heart:
        and ye shall find rest unto your souls.

A Christian is a Disciple
What is a Disciple? A Disciple is a student. Students do not add staff (parasites) or musical performers to assist their learning.
What does a Christian-Disciple Study?  Jesus commanded that everyone be taught to observe what HE commanded to be taught.
What did Jesus teach to be TAUGHT? Jesus said that all that was prophesied about Him would be fulfilled.
Peter said that theprophecies had been made more certain by Jesus of Nazareth. He commanded that this not be private interpreted or further expounded. He said that anyone who does not teach that which has been revealed is a false teacher.  That includes the Prophets and Apostle's writing inspired for the Spiritual Community which was quarantined from Jerusalem and other sun and star worship centers.
What is the Purpose for this restricted curriculum?

Ephesians 2:18 For through him [Jesus] we both have access by one Spirit [Jesus] unto the Father.
Jesus wants MEN and WOMEN to be sedentary and silent.

1Timothy 2:1 I exhort therefore, that, first of all, supplications,
        prayers, intercessions, and giving of thanks, be made for all men;
1Timothy 2:2 For kings, and for ALL that are in authority;
        that we may lead a quiet and peaceable life in all godliness and honesty.


That includes preachers (sermonizers) Christ failed to GIFT in Ephesians 4.

Why?

1Timothy 2:4 Who will have all men to be saved,
         and to come unto the knowledge of the truth.  [The WORD or LOGOS is TRUTH]

To MARK those who claim to see visions or hear "spirits" telling them to DESTROY the peace and quiet!


1Timothy 2:5 For there is one God,
        and one mediator between God and men,
        the man Christ Jesus


The ONE God the Father is the only Holy (wholly) Spirit which God breathed (spirit) into the One Lord Jesus. After His glorification Jesus received the promise or EVANGEL OFFICE as the Mind or Spirit of God to we mortals who do NOT hear voices!!

In that role, Jesus as Holy Spirit (1 John 2) MEDIATES by dispensing His Word (the only pattern) but ONLY when there are APT elders who "teach that which has been taught" and exclude those who oppose or need to ENHANCE the Word.

1John 2:1 My little children, these things write I unto you, that ye sin not.
        And if any man sin, we have an ADVOCATE [paraklete] with the Father,
        Jesus Christ the righteous:
1John 2:3 And hereby we do know that we know him, if we keep his commandments.
1John 2:4 He that saith, I know him, and keepeth not his commandments,
        is a liar, and the truth is not in him.

  1. The Spirit OF Christ radically marked the Civil-Military-Clergy as robbers and parasites.  He defined the REST both inclusively and exclusively.  If the promise that God's enemies would MOCK the Son meaning Rhetoric, singing and playing instruments.  And preacher A says that a spirit commanded him to MOCK Jesus with instruments the Scripture marks that person as:
    1. WISE or Sophists: performance preacher for hire, singing, playing instruments. Jesus said that God HIDES from them.
    2. HYPOCRITES: Scribes and Pharisees. Speakers, singers, instrument players. Ezek 33
    3. OF the WORLD or Kosmos: Performing COSMIC worship.  Outlawed in Rome by Paul.

Strab. 10.3.10 And on this account Plato, and even before his time the Pythagoreians [KOSMOS], called philosophy music;1 and they say that the universe is constituted in accordance with harmony,2 assuming that every form of music is the work of the gods. And in this sense, also,
        the Muses are goddesses,
        and Apollo is leader of the Muses,
and poetry as a whole is laudatory of the gods. And by the same course of reasoning they also attribute to music the upbuilding of morals, believing that everything which tends to correct the mind is close to the gods. Now most of the Greeks assigned to Dionysus, Apollo, Hecate, the Muses, and above all to Demeter,
         everything of an orgiastic [wrath] or Bacchic or choral nature,
        as well as the mystic element in initiations; [Into the gay brotherhood]
and they give the name "Iacchus" not only to Dionysus but also to the leader-in-chief of the mysteries, who is the genius of Demeter.
        And branch-bearing, choral dancing, and initiations are common elements in the worship of these gods.
        As for the Muses and Apollo, the Muses preside over the choruses, whereas Apollo presides both over these and the rites of divination. But all educated men, and especially the musicians, are ministers of the Muses; and both these and those who have to do with divination are ministers of Apollo; and the initiated and torch-bearers and hierophants, of Demeter; and the Sileni and Satyri and Bacchae, and also the Lenae and Thyiae and Mimallones and Naďdes and Nymphae and the beings called Tityri, of Dionysus.

SELF-SPEAKERS AND MUSICIANS CLAIM THE ROLE OF JESUS AND DENY THE PERSONAL NATURE OF BEING A CHRISTIAN.

Ephesians 2:19 Now therefore ye are no more strangers and foreigners,
        but fellowcitizens with the saints, and of the household of God;

A Church of Christ has no clergy nor staff not directly connected to teaching the Word: no, all of the programs or MINISTRIES are a copy of Babylonianism.  iIn Jerusalem and all religions they are called PARASITES because the hinder the PREACHING of the Word by READING the Word for Comfort and Doctrine.

Ephesians 2:20 And are built upon the foundation of the apostles and prophets,
        Jesus Christ himself being the chief corner stone;
Ephesians 2:21 In whom all the building fitly framed together
        groweth unto an holy temple in the Lord:
Ephesians 2:22 In whom ye also are builded together for an habitation of God through the Spirit.


Built upon means Educated in the Ekklesia. Neither synagogue nor ekklesia had any other role than to READ material handed down from a higher authority, discuss it and reach a conclusion: Synagogoue speaks of the syllogism.  Any singer or instrument player would be hurt real bad if they tried to perform in either assemblies.

INDIVIDUALS and not massed multitudes (beasts) worship God IN the spirit as they give heed to THE TRUTH. There is nothing else defined as "worship" even in the old testament for the godly people who attended small group synagogues to REST FROM the clergy, Read and Rehearse or Meditate on the Word.

HOW GOD MARKS FOR AVOIDANCE ON DISCIPLES AS OPPOSED TO CEREMONIAL LEGALISTS:

Habakkuk 2:18 What profiteth the graven image that the maker thereof hath graven it;
        the molten image, and a teacher of lies,
        that the maker of his work trusteth therein, to make dumb idols?
Habakkuk 2:19 Woe unto him that saith to the wood,
        Awake; to the dumb stone, Arise, it shall teach!
        Behold, it is laid over with gold and silver,
        and there is no breath at all in the midst of it.
Habakkuk 2:20 But the LORD is in his holy temple:
         let all the earth keep silence before him.


David was Abandoned to Worship the Starry Host (Acts 7)

Psalms 57:8 Awake up, my glory; awake, psaltery and harp: I myself will awake early.
Psalms 108:2 Awake, psaltery and harp: I myself will awake early.

Euripides-Ion
O thou, that wakest on thy seven-string'd lyre
Sweet notes, that from the rustic lifeless horn [-Keras]
Enchant the ear with heavenly melody,
Son of Latona, thee before this light
Will I reprove. Thou camest to me, with gold
Thy locks all glittering, as the vermeil flowers
 
And now my son and thine, ill-fated babe,
Is rent by ravenous vultures; thou, meanwhile,
Art to thy lyre attuning strains of joy.
We even have a mention at a later date of a similar custom in connection with the cult in Jerusalem, where certain Levites, called me'oreim, 'arousers," sang every morning this verse from Ps 44: 'Awake, Lord, awake! Do not abandon us for ever." The Talmud tells us that Johy Hyrcanus suppressed the practice because it recalled too readily a pagan custom.

A similar practice is attested in connection with the cult of Herakles-Melkart. According to Menander, as he is quoted by Josephus, the king Hiram, who was a contemporary of Solomon, rebuilt the temples of Tyre and, 'he was the first to celebrate the awakening of Heracles in the month of Peritius." (de Vaux, p. 247)

In an inscription from Cyprus, in one from Rhodes and in several from around the district of Carthage, there are references to important personages who bear the title Mqm"lm which we can translate as 'arouser of the god." (de Vaux, p. 247).

THE MARK OF WOMEN AND "BOYS" RULING OVER YOU.

FIRST: the Logos directly outlaws anything beyond PREACHING the WORD by READING the Word (in context) for Comfort and Doctrine: that is what Paul commanded Timothy.  Christ in the Prophets and Jesus making the prophecies more certain and left for our MEMORY told all of the stories and wrote all of the songs: these are great EPICS (Never Lyric) and the Mind or Spirit of God is transferred by READING which is defined over and over as the ONE PIECE PATTERN for A School of Christ.  The School has no other purpose whatever the noble but diverting opinions of mankind repudiating the WORD and therefore repudiating Christ who Spoke ONLY what the Father Breathed (Spirit) into Him.  Jesus set the PATTERN: He spoke only what God breathed into him.  The WORK is done and legalism is thinking you can guild the lillies.

-LOGOS or rational discord of God.  If you add or subtract to the Word then you have less interest in God and His Word than yourself.

Logos is Opposite Pathos  A. that which happens to a person or thing, incident, accident, where this incident took place, unfortunate accident,
2. what one has experienced, good or bad, experience
II. of the soul, emotion, passion (“legō de pathē . . holōs hois hepetai hēdonē ē lupēArist.EN1105b21), “sophiē psukhēn pathōn aphaireitai

4. text of an author,  OPPOSITE exegesis [Peter's private interpretation outlaws exegesis]
Arist.En1142a26
  1. The ONLY Purpose is to TEACH and COMFORT: Paul told Timothy to READ the Word for Comfort and Doctrine.
  2. The METHOD is to SPEAK "that which is written for our learning." SPEAK is audible and effective. Paul silenced all of the theatrical crowd (marked) and "use one mind and one mouth to speak that which is written for our learning. WHY do you think that Doctors of the Law cannot grasp that? Jesus said their job is to take away the key to knowledge.
  3. The ODE and PSALLO are in the heart, spirit or SILENT. That is because the ODE was a form of enchantment or sorcery and Psallo speaks primarily of plucking the bow to make it twang to send forth a singing arrow. It speaks of Abaddon or Apollo who also carried his lyre to shoot LOVE ARROWS into his friends.  Psallo has NO musical content.
  4. If there is no one who can interpret or TRANSLATE the sound of a musical machine then Paul commanded:
1Corinthians 14:28 But if there be no interpreter,
        let him keep SILENCE in the church;
        and let him speak to HIMSELF, and to GOD


A TONGUE defines both an unknown language OR a musical instrument: a lifeless instrument meaning carnal weapon.

1Corinthians 13:1 Though I speak with the tongues of men and of angels,
        and have not charity, I am become as sounding brass, or a tinkling cymbal.


The SPEAKING which Paul outlaws with a DIRECT COMMAND IS
La^l-eō ,Mark of the Locusts

THE ANGELS which would mark Abaddon or Apollyon leader of the MUSES are:
Aggelos ,  of a loquacious person 2.  generally, one that announces or tells, e.g. of birds of augury, Il.24.292,296; Mousōn aggelos

In Revelation 18 the speakers, instrument players and MUSES are called sorcerers who HAD deceived the whol world.
A Christian is a Disciple or a Student: The command of Jesus was to teach what HE commanded to be taught.  If you add your own words and body performance then you are violating a Direct command and are proven NOT to care much about what you get paid for.

SECOND: CHRIST MARKED THOSE WHO DO NOT TEACH THAT WHICH IS WRITTEN FOR OUR LEARNING:

Isaiah 8:19 And when they shall say unto you,
        Seek unto them that have familiar spirits [
pythonibus], and unto wizards that peep,
        and that mutter:

Isaiah 8:20 To the law and to the testimony[No music in the Law or Prophets]
        if they speak not according to this WORD,
        it is because there is no light in them.
Isaiah 8:21 And they shall pass through it, hardly bestead and hungry: and it shall come to pass,
        that when they shall be hungry, they shall fret themselves,
        and curse their king and their God, and look upward.
Isaiah 8:22 And they shall look unto the earth;
        and behold trouble and darkness, dimness of anguish;
        and they shall be driven to darkness.


Jude 17 But, beloved, remember ye the words which were spoken before

Needy men were armed against the rich, abandoned men against the good, slaves against their masters.

Jude 19 These be they who separate themselves, sensual, having not the Spiri

2 Peter 3 Marks End-Time Mockers

Even in the worst pagan temples including the one in Jerusalem a self-speaker, singer or instrument players was commanded to be executed for getting close to a presumed "holy" thing and place. The REAL command of God was for the Jacob-cursed and God-abandoned Levite were to STAND IN RANKS and make an instrumental noise (never music) to warn any godly person that they would be killed if they were inside the gates where God quarantined the sacrificial which Christ says (Isaiah 1; Jeremiah 7; Acts 7) that God did not command.

There is no command, example or remote inference of any group singing with or without instruments when God quarantined the godly people from those abandoned to worship the starry host.

From Genesis where Lucifer (part of the Kairos-Saturn-Zeus group) where Christ calls him-her-it "a singing and harp playing prostitute to Revelation 17 where the end-time return of the Babylon Mother of harlots uses "lusted after fruits" (same as Amos 8) as sself-speakers, singers and instrument players whom Jesus has John call them the SAME Sorcerers who had deceived the whole world (the c. BC 4000 Time) who will be cast alive into the lake of fire, the MARK of rhetoric, singing and playing MARKS God visiting and promising "I will not pass by again" marks the removal of the LAMPS or "seven Spirits of Divine Knowledge" (Isaiah 11)

The COMMAND is to SPEAK that which is written for our LEARNING and COMFORT.
Both ODE and PSALLO (never musical melody) is in the heart or SILENT as Paul commanded in 1 Corinthians 14.
That is because LEXIS (and all of the LOGOS words) are the opposite to ODE, and ODE is the opposite to LOGOS words.

No historical scholar failed to note that the ODE and MELODY was silent but since singing as an ACT was imposed c ad 373 some concluded that it would not be a SIN to sing audibly.  Both Paul and Peter make certain that all of the self-pleasure or hypocritic arts including the musical and scenic IN THE FLESH rituals are silenced so that rational or spiritual (of the LOGOS) can take place.

Featured at LU a Preacher as Poster Child of the FALSE ACCUSATIONS for almost exactly 100 years by the NACC and a few of their dupes speaking ONLY for the Denominational Organization.

Dave Clayton FEATURED at ACU, LU and Pepperdine as the pattern for  a Kairos-Ethos Church which repudiates all of the Historic Church of Christ from the Wilderness where Christ (The Rock) excluded vocal or instrumental rejoicing as well as self-speak of any kind. The command was to PREACH the Word (Logos) by READING the Word for comfort and doctrine.  The ACCUSER has had a field day at the relaunch of the NACC (beginning 1927) now using ANTI-instrumental music to demand CONFIRMING or CONFORMING to the use of INSTRUMENTS.

The MARK: singing enchanting songs to make the lambs dumb before the slaughter.
The BEAST: a new form of music and Satyric Drama (that gender-variant priesthood thingy)
The IMAGE: is REpresenting the Text in song and claiming that it TEACHES .

David Young Minister North Boulevard Church of Christ. Plans for 60,000 Seed Planting: Certainly beating GOING out to command what JESUS commanded to be taught UNTIL the end of the World.

"Just remember: when you're reading your Greek Testament and come upon kairos: stop, look and listen, because the Holy Spirit is flashing a caution light, warning of a coming crisis, an eminent judgment. That's why Jesus used the word more than once to predict his own crucifixion."
Quote

KAIROS (or Caerus) was the spirit (daimon) of opportunity, the youngest divine son of Zeus. He was depicted as a youth with a long lock of hair hanging down from his forehead, which indicated that Opportunity could only be grasped as he approached.

"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).

Jubal "handled" musical instruments WITHOUT AUTHORITY in a sexual sense to STEAL other people's property. Jubal descended from Cain who is said to be the SEED (sperm) of the Serpent.  Paul said that Eve was wholly seduced as a young bride is seduced away from the Truth.

"Plutarch implicitly contrasts a serious dinner featuring a sage as the after-dinner speaker with the other sorts of dinners--where sexual play with the girl flute-players or hetairae was common." (Witherington, Ben, Why Not Idol Meat, Bible Review, June 1994, p. 41-42).

See Randy Lowry Lipscomb CELEBRATON: NOT using instruments causes CONFLICTS.  So he calls on Rick Atchely to help him convice that we should COLLABORATE with what has always been called sorcery or witchcraft.  Lowry confesses a TRIATIC collaboration between ACU, Pepperdine and LU.  We, of course, add the NACC repeating the hostile takeover a hundred years later. They want YOU to bow to Baal and then there will be no CONFLICTAlexander Campbell said that there must be Christians (baptized believers) in all of the sects.  If so, he said that they should COME OUT OF BABYLON.  Denying any unity with the Christian Church which began in 1927-1971, he said that the "Christians" had shown only how we might be divided.

These links are at another page: one of the few men who have chosen to blaspheme so he can take that new mega church for Singing, Playing instruments, clapping, hugging and kissing. Because he uses the documents of the Christian Church such as the Stark-Warlick debate using all of the RACA words, he and they OUT the universal persona that I am not sure always fits. Nevertheless, masses are discorded and offended and FLEE for their lives:

LINKS TO A FEW STEPS TO THE LAKE OF FIRE;  You may read the whole review of David Young's marking without losing this Fulfilment of Prophecy which began c. 4000 when because of MUSICAL IDOLATRY Moses defined the 6 DAYS until Abaddon (the name of the Levites service) or Apollyon being unleashed along with the locusts or muses.  Apollyon is identified in the Classics referenced by John as the MUSICAL WORSHIP LEADER including FEMALE worship leaders.

John calls them SORCERERS who HAD deceived the whole world once: that is why Moses wrote: In the beginning the elohim cast down or profaned the whole world.  However, Christ in Isaiah while defining the REST both inclusively and exclusively to EXCLUDE all of the hypocriitic or parasitic roles, said that JEHOVAH did not create the world in that Mesopotamian-Institutionalized state but HE (singular) created it to be inhabited with all of the FREE resource for living WITHOUT a Fertility Prophet or preacher to CONNECT them with God.

Of course, not: they understand that they will do two things God hates: Music in the holy places and those who sow discord among brethren.  They want UNITY with the NACC but know that they sow disunity beyond their congregation with those literate enough to know that there is no "musical" role in what Christ and the Campbells understood to be A School of Christ: Jesus defined the CENI as to "command them to teach and observe what He commanded them." And they know that the LOGOS is the Regulative principle which OUTLAWS any comment by the teacher, singing, playing instruments, acting and other ACTS of body worship which history knows as the FOUNTAIN of the always Gender-Bent priesthoods.

We don't make claims but the evidence is that this is the PERSONA when anyone introduces Musical Worship Clergy claiming the role of Jesus Christ. If up to half of the congregation flees it is not because they are legalistic, sectarian traditionalists.  It is clear that you get very little straight Bible from once-Christians colleges of the BIBLE now diverted into schools of Theology.  John Mark Hicks says that he does not ignore the Bible but bases his teachings and writing on theology from those who never quote from original sources but quotes from other theologians.

Point ONE: THE BEGINNING CYCLE OF THE MOTHER OF HARLOTS INDWELLING THE KING-QUEEN OF TYRE

"The trained musicians which eventually appear around the time of David and Solomon mark a distinctive change in the history of Jewish music. Before this time much of the music was made by women." (Zondervan Pict., Music p. 313).

"Before the establishment of the kingdom under Saul, it was the women who, as in every young civilization, played a major part in the performance of music. Such figures as Miriam, Deborah, Jephtha's daughter, and the women hailing the young hero David have become almost archetypes of female musicians. Characteristic of all these cases is the familiar picture of a female chorus, dancing and singing, accompanied by frenzied drum-beating. This is the scene known to the entire Near East, and not even the severe rule of Islam could wholly suppress this age-old practice." (Int Dict of the Bible, Music, p. 457).

"Women and girls from the different ranks of society were proud to enter the service of the gods as singers and musicians. The understanding of this service was universal: these singers constituted the 'harem of the gods'." (Quasten)

"Its (pipe = to love passionately) was apparently a secular instrument and is never listed in the temple orchestra; only in Ps. 150:4 it is mentioned in a religious (but not ritual) function. Its ethos was not blameless at all, as we see from Genesis Rabbah 50:

'The angels said to Lot: 'There are players of the pipe (organ) in the country, hence it ought to be destroyed'." Its rabbinical identification with the aboda, the flute of the notorious Syrian bayaderes, emphasizes the erotic element which already the Hebrew name suggests." (Interpreter's Dictionary of the Bible, p. 460, Abingdon).

Ezekiel 28:13 Thou hast been in Eden the garden of God; every precious stone was thy covering,
        the sardius, topaz, and the diamond, the beryl, the onyx, and the jasper, the sapphire,
        the emerald, and the carbuncle, and gold: the workmanship of thy tabrets and of thy pipes
        was prepared in thee in the day that thou wast created [cast as profane]

After both Jerusalem and Tyre returned from 70 years of captivity:

Is. 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.

HERE IS THE SONG OF THE PROSTITUTE! Note that it takes three terms:

Is. 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.
Is. 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.

The Testimony of Jesus is the Spirit OF prophecy: Christ defined the REST DAY for the Godly Jews and the future Christians both inclusively and exclusively:
Luke 11:49 Therefore also said the wisdom of God,
        I will send them prophets and apostles, and some of them they shall slay and persecute:
1Peter 1:9 Receiving the end of your faith, even the salvation of your souls.
1Peter 1:10 Of which salvation the prophets have inquired and searched diligently,
        who prophesied of the grace that should come unto you:
1Peter 1:11 Searching what, or what manner of time the Spirit of Christ which was in them did signify,
        when it testified beforehand the sufferings of Christ, and the glory that should follow.

A Church of Christ is built upon or EDUCATED by the Prophets and Apostles recording the confirmed prophets.  Education is the ONLY role of a Church of Christ defined by Ekklesia or Synagogue. Neither of these originated any of the resources for hearing.

Ephesians 2:20 And are built upon the foundation of the apostles and prophets,
        Jesus Christ himself being the chief corner stone;

The Spirit OF God or the Spirit OF Christ is the BREATH of God since the PATTERN of Jesus was never to speak on His own. When God BREATHES (spirit) into the Son (without metron or meter?), He SPEAKS or articulates the Mind of God.  If a person makes a profession using the psychological violence that A spirit is guiding him, Christ in Isaiah 8:20 says THERE IS NO LIGHT IN HIM.

There is nothing taught or practiced by the Later Day Progressives which is not condemned by Christ in the Prophets: Christ called the Civil-Military-Clergy complex ABANDONED to worship the starry host (the same Abaddon-Apollyon leader of the Muses) Robbers and Parasites. In fact PARASITE defines any religious worker especially the Levite Musicians whose prophesying means Soothsaying or Sorcery.

Paul did not CORRUPT the Word which meaning selling anything at retail: the same word means to be a prostitute. That is why no person has anything to say which has not already been said by God.

Acts 15:21 For Moses of old time
        hath in every city them that PREACH him,
        being READ in the synagogues every sabbath day
None of those not Jacob-cursed and God-abandoned people were permitted to leave their local city.  WORK outlawed "sending OUT ministers of God." The local elder led the people in READING AND REHEARSING the Word supplied by Moses.
God EXCLUDED vocal or instrumental rejoicing or any elevated speaking beyond translating and explaining THAT WHICH WAS READ. That pattern is repeated over and over in the New Testament.

 AND THE RECORDED RESULT OF RELIGIOUS MUSIC PERFORMED WITH A DRIVEN PURPOSE

Wherefore God also gave them up to uncleanness, through the lusts of their own hearts,
    to dishonour their own bodies between themselves: Rom 1:24
    Who changed the truth of God into a lie,
    and worshipped and served the
creature more than the Creator,
            who is blessed for ever. Amen. Rom 1:25

    For this cause God
gave them up unto vile affections:
            for even their women did change the natural use into that which is against nature: Rom 1:26

    And likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust one toward another;
        men with men working that which is unseemly,
        and receiving in themselves that recompence of their error which was meet. Rom 1:27
    And even as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge,
        God gave them over to a reprobate mind,
        to do those things which are not convenient; Rom 1:28

Point THREE: THE ENDING CYCLE OF THE MOTHER OF HARLOTS INDWELLING THE KING-QUEEN OF THE HARLOT CHURCHES

Revelation 17:3 So he carried me away in the spirit into the wilderness:
        and I saw a woman sit upon a scarlet coloured beast,
        full of names of blasphemy, having seven heads and ten horns.

The Goddess as Lady of Beasts was known to the people of Sumer, Crete, and the Indus Valley (India). Her name is largely unknown because worship of her predated writing. She was also known as the Cosmic Creatrix, the creative, fertile, life-giving force. Her special animals were held sacred as manifestations of the deity herself. She is depicted here pregnant, surrounded by pregnant animals, which speaks of her as a powerful fertility figure. She usually appears enthroned with a lion at her side indicating sovereignty and strength. Genesis 3:20 And Adam called his wife’s name Eve; because she was the mother of all living.
        Initially a Hunter Goddess and Lady of the Beasts of Kolchis named Aeaea 'ululation,' [HALAL]she became the funerary Goddess of the island known by her name. Kalypso 'concealer,' Argeia 'bright,' and often Medea 'wise one' who was sometimes called her neice instead. Klymene's daughters were the keepers of golden horned cattle in the lands of the Dead, the Heliades or Merope 'eloquent' or 'bee eater,' Helia 'sun,' Phoebe [ABADDON, APOLLYON]  'bright,' Aetheria 'heavenly one,' Dioxippe 'divine mare,' Lampetia 'beaming one,' Koronis 'crow or raven,' Aegile 'bright,' Lamethusa 'light being,' Phatusa 'bright being,' and Elektryone 'beaming on

Revelation 17:4 And the woman was arrayed in purple and scarlet colour,
        and decked with gold and precious stones and pearls,
        having a golden cup in her hand full of abominations and filthiness of her fornication:

Revelation 17:5 And upon her forehead was a name written,
         MYSTERY, BABYLON THE GREAT, THE MOTHER OF HARLOTS AND ABOMINATIONS OF THE EARTH.

Rev 18:20 Rejoice over her, thou heaven, and ye holy apostles and prophets; for God hath avenged you on her.

Rev 18:21 And a mighty angel took up a stone like a great millstone,
        and cast it into the sea, saying, Thus with violence shall that great city Babylon be thrown down,
        and shall be found no more at all.

Rev 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, 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;

Rev 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: for thy merchants were the great men of the earth; for by thy sorceries were all nations deceived.

Rev 18:24 And in her was found the blood of prophets, and of saints, and of all that were slain upon the earth.

EVE APPEARS FROM BABYLON AFTER ISRAEL FELL INTO INSTRUMENTAL IDOLATRY AND SENTENCED BACK TO BABYLON. Maybe Paul knew something about Eve?

Theophilus to Autolycus 

This Eve, on account of her having been in the beginning deceived by the serpent, and become the author of sin, the wicked demon, who also is called Satan, who then spoke to her through the serpent, and who works even to this day in those men that are possessed by him, invokes as Eve.58 And he is called "demon" and "dragon," on account of his revolting from God. For at first he was an angel. And concerning his history there is a great deal to be said; wherefore I at present omit the relation of it, for I have also given an account of him in another place.

58 Referring to the bacchanalian orgies in which " Eva " was shouted, and which the Fathers professed to believe was an unintentional invocation of Eve, the authoress of all sin.

The word "abomination" is also key to understanding the context. In Hebrew, the word "to 'evah," (abomination) is almost invariably linked to idolatry. In the passages from which both verses are taken, God tells Moses to tell the people not to follow the idolatrous practices of the people around them, people who sacrificed their children to Molech, or who masturbated into the fire to offer their semen to Molech, for example. Chapter 20 starts off with the same warning.

"To 'evah" also means "something which is ritually unclean."
But also, concerning music, some have fabled that Apollo [Abaddon, Apollyon]  was the inventor, and others say that Orpheus discovered the art of music from the sweet voices of the birds. Their story is shown to be empty and vain, for these inventors lived many years after the flood. And what relates to Noah, who is called by some Deucalion, has been explained by us in the book before mentioned, and which, if you wish it, you are at liberty to read.

ZOE in the Latin is called "The BEAST and Female instructing principle."  The Serpent was a MUSICAL ENCHANTER(ESS)

AND THE PENALTY

Exod 32:34 Therefore now go,
        lead the people unto the place of which I have spoken unto thee:
        behold, mine Angel shall go before thee:
        nevertheless in the day when I visit I will visit their sin upon them.
Amos 5:26 But ye have borne the tabernacle of your Moloch and Chiun your images,
        the star of your god,
        which ye made to yourselves.
Amos 5:27 Therefore will I cause you to go into captivity beyond Damascus,
        saith the LORD, whose name is The God of hosts.

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.

Revelation 21:8 But the fearful, and unbelieving, and the abominable, and murderers,
        and whoremongers, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all liars,
        shall have their part in the lake which burneth with fire and brimstone: which is the second death.
Revelation 22:15 For without are dogs, and sorcerers, and whoremongers,
        and murderers, and idolaters, and whosoever loveth and maketh a lie.

See Galatians 5 and the Music and Witchcraft connection.

Catullus  63: Haste you together, she-priests, to Cybele's dense woods, together haste, you vagrant herd of the dame Dindymene, you who inclining towards strange places as exiles, following in my footsteps, led by me, comrades, you who have faced the ravening sea and truculent main, and have castrated your bodies in your utmost hate of Venus [ZOE], make glad our mistress speedily with your minds' mad wanderings.

Let dull delay depart from your thoughts, together haste you, follow to the Phrygian home of Cybele, to the Phrygian woods of the Goddess, where sounds the cymbal's voice, where the tambour resounds, where the Phrygian flutist pipes deep notes on the curved reed, where the ivy-clad Maenades furiously toss their heads, where they enact their sacred orgies [wrath Paul outlawed] with shrill-sounding ululations, where that wandering band of the Goddess flits about: there it is meet to hasten with hurried mystic dance."

When Attis, spurious woman, had thus chanted to her comity, the chorus straightway shrills with trembling tongues, the light tambour booms, the concave cymbals clang, and the troop swiftly hastes with rapid feet to verdurous Ida.

Then raging wildly, breathless, wandering, with brain distraught, hurries Attis with her tambour, their leader through dense woods, like an untamed heifer shunning the burden of the yoke: and the swift Gallae press behind their speedy-footed leader. So when the home of Cybele they reach, wearied out with excess of toil and lack of food they fall in slumber. Sluggish sleep shrouds their eyes drooping with faintness, and raging fury leaves their minds to quiet ease.

SO, DO YOU BELIEVE THAT THE "SCHOLARS" AND UNIVERSITES AND PREACHERS ARE SIMPLY IGNORANT?

WITH NO EXCEPTION IN BETWEEN [Romans 10], THE MUSICAL INFILTRATORS WANT YOU TO BELIEVE THAT YOU ARE SONS OF PERDITION FOR NOT JOINING THEM IN ALL OF THEIR PROPHESIED GAMES.

Stark-Warlick Debate: Lipscomb like the "man of sin," he sits in the temple of God, says: "Thou shalt not." OR "rebellion is as the sin of witchcraft and stubborness is as iniquity and idolatry."

Robert Ballard and the NACC: and to refuse to permit that which God Himsef has (P93) SAID TO USE. To forbid their use, where God has  SAID TO USE THEM, as in Eph. 5:19 and Col. 3:16 is flagrant sin (Rev 22:18:19)

WHY DO YOU THINK THERE WAS SUCH A SUDDEN AND HARSH AGAINST CHURCHES OF CHRIST ALMOST TO THE DAY OF THE END OF THE 6,000 YEARS BASED ON MOSES USE OF BABYLONIAN THEOLOGY TO WARN ISRAEL WHICH HAS JUST FALLEN INTO INSTRUMENTAL IDOLATRY?

The MARK (musical "worship"): The BEAST (A new style of music or Satyric Drama): the IDOL (RE-presenting the Word in song and sermon)

Consistent with the hostile attack from about 1890 to the present, David Young blasphemes the Holy Spirit OF Christ who defined a Church of Christ (the Rock) and in the Prophets radically condemning musical machines as having the power of sorcery or soothsaying (Miriam and the Levites).

THE GOLDEN CALF AGAIN: PAUL EXCLUDED "DOGS" AND "CONCISION" BY MAKING WORSHIP IN THE SPIRIT (A PLACE) AND NOT IN THE FLESH


Galatians 5:12 I would they were even cut off which trouble you.
Galatians 5:12NET I wish those agitators18 would go so far as to19 castrate themselves!20

A. Based on the words Paul uses pointed to the emasculated priests of the mother goddess, Paul intends to CUT OFF the musical performers in the same way the priests were made eunuchs:

First:
Apo-koptō
, a.ta gennētika, of eunuchs, Ph.1.89: abs., “apokekommenoseunuch, LXXDe.23.1, cf.Luc.Eun.8:—Med., make oneself a eunuch, Ep.Gal.5.12, cf. Arr.Epict.2.20.19.

This would apply to the musical fall from grace at Mount Sinai:  the worship of the Mother Goddess allowed males to "perform the role of women." David's stola was worn by the office of prostitute and the Ephod was a phallic symbol which David cast off and went naked.

The folly of Israel was common throughout history. An emasculated priest served as the DOGS of Cybele the Mother of the Gods.  The Babylon mother of harlots in Revelation 17 used these "lusted after FRUITS" as speakers, singers and instrument players (Rev 18).  Paul called the SORCERERS who HAD deceived the whole world.
Deuteronomy 23.1He who is wounded in the stones, or has his privy member cut off, shall not enter into the assembly of Yahweh.

Galatians 5:21 Envyings, murders, drunkenness, revellings, and such like:
         of the which I tell you before, as I have also told you in time past,
         that they which do such things shall not inherit the kingdom of God.

Chrysostom's Commentary on Galatians:

Galatians 5:1.-"With freedom did Christ set us free; stand fast therefore.115 ."
Ver. 12.
"I would that they which unsettle you would even cut themselves off." And he says well "that unsettle you."
"A man that is heretical after the first and second admonition refuse." (Tit. iii: 10) If they will,
let them not only be circumcised, but mutilated.
Where then are those who dare to mutilate themselves; seeing that they draw down the Apostolic curse, and accuse the workmanship of God, and take part with the Manichees? ... But if you will not allow this,
why do you not mutilate the tongue for blasphemy, the hands for rapine, the feet for their evil courses, in short, the whole body?
For the ear enchanted by the sound of a flute hath often enervated the soul;
and the perception of a sweet perfume by the nostrils hath bewitched the mind, and made it frantic for pleasure
.
Catullus,Carmina 63     Notes
Thy timbrel, Mother Cybele, the firstings of thy rite,
And as her tender finger-tips on bull-back hollow rang
She rose a-grieving and her song to listening comrades sang.

"Up Gallae, hie together, haste for Cybele's deep grove,
Hie to the Dindymnean dame, ye flocks that love to rove;
The which affecting stranger steads as bound in exile's brunt
My sect pursuing led by me have nerved you to confront

The raging surge of salty sea and ocean's tyrant hand
As your hate of Venus' [ZOE] hest your
manly forms unmann'd,
Gladden your souls, ye mistresses, with sense of error bann'd.
Drive from your spirits dull delay, together follow ye
To hold of Phrygian goddess, home of Phrygian Cybebe,
Where loud the cymbal's voice resounds with timbrel-echoes blending,
And where the Phrygian piper drones grave bass from reed a-bending,

Where toss their ivy-circled heads with might the Maenades
Where ply mid shrilly lullilooes the holiest mysteries,
Where to fly here and there be wont the she-god's vaguing train,
Thither behoves us lead the dance in quick-step hasty strain."

David's HALAL or "praise" meaning "making self vile" threatening the enemy that they would be robbed, rapped and "raptured" if they did not turn coward.  You WILL NOT QUESTION 'the Leadership' as a real threat.

So mayst thou with Osiris still find grace:
By Anubis's venerable face,
I pray thee, so may still thy rights divine
Flourish, and serpents round thy offerings twine
May Apis with his horns the pomp attend,
And be to thee, as thou'rt to her, a friend.
Look down, oh Isis! on the teeming fair,
And make at once her life and mine thy care:
Have pity on her pains; the help you give
To her, her lover saves, in her I live.

Her vows to thee on all thy solemn days;
And when the Galli at thy altars wait, [emasculated priests of cybele-Isis, dogs, concision]

THE COMMAND IS TO SPEAK: THERE IS NO COMMAND TO SING AS PERFORMANCE

Basic Reading of the text without the definition of words proves that from the Church in the Wilderness onward there is no musical content in what is defined as A School OF Christ where the command is to teach what HE commanded to be taught:

We are very fortunate that Paul commanded that we
        SPEAK
that which is written for our learning [adults do not sing their lessons]
        Both the ODE and PSALLO SILENT.

THE ALWAYS-PAGAN THESIS OF CEREMONIAL LEGALISM

1. COMMAND: Speak or the LOGOS Words is opposite to rhetoric, singing, playing, acting which Jesus quoting Ezekiel 33 names as HYPOCRITES.
2. ODE and PSALLO in the place of the heart, spirit or mind.  In 1 Corinthians 14 this means Keep It
Silent Silly.

The command is to SPEAK

ōdē is the OPPOSITE of the LOGOS words

The Psallo based words (ie SOP) were used in the Septuagint because Psalms were warrior chants or taunt songs.  Psalmos can be and is the Son of the DRUNKARD.  Psallo speaks of Apollyon twitching his bow-string to make it twang to shoot forth a literal arrow into hiis enemy's heart.  He always had his Lyre by which He shot forth HYMNS to enable him to shoot love arrows into male or female.

SCRIPTURE ALWAYS DEFINES THE PAGAN THESIS BEFORE OUTLAWING IT.

Plutarch Marcus Antonius  easily fell again to his old licentious life. For straight, one Anaxenor, a player of the cithern, Xoutus, a player of the flute, Metrodorus a tumbler, and such a rabble of minstrels and fit ministers for the pleasures of Asia (who in fineness and flattery passed all the other plagues he brought with him out of Italy), all these flocked in his court, and bare the whole sway: and after that all went awry. For every one gave themselves to riot and excess, when they saw he delighted in it: and all Asia was like to the city Sophocles speaketh of in one of his tragedies:
Was full of sweet perfumes and pleasant songs,
With woeful weeping mingled there-amongs.
For in the city of Ephesus, women, attired as they go in the feasts and sacrifice of Bacchus, came out to meet him with such solemnities and ceremonies as are then used: with men and children disguised like fauns and satyrs. Moreover, the city was full of ivy, and darts wreathed about with ivy, psalterion flutes, and howboye  [hautboys] and in their songs they called him Bacchus, father of mirth, courteous and gentle: and so was he unto some, but to the most part of men cruel and extreme.
        For he robbed noblemen and gentlemen of their goods, to give it unto vile flatterers:
        who oftentimes begged living men's goods, as though they had been dead, and would enter their houses by force.
PAUL COMMANDED THE ANTITHESIS:

Ephesians 5:17 Wherefore be ye not unwise, but understanding what the will of the Lord is.
Ephesians 5:18 And be not drunk with wine, wherein is excess;
The words Paul used are fully explained by his SILENCING both the ODE and PSALLO.

[5] Every city also sent an ox for the general sacrifice, and kings vied with one another in their mutual entertainments and gifts. And so men everywhere began to ask: ‘How will the conquerors celebrate their victories if their preparations for the war are marked by festivals so costly?’

Plutarch Marcus Antonius and the STAFF PARASITES: As he gave a citizen's house of Magnesia unto a cook, because (as it is reported) he dressed him a fine supper. In the end he doubled the taxation, and imposed a second upon Asia. But then Hybraeas the orator, sent from the estates of Asia, to tell him the state of their country, boldly said unto him, "If thou [p. 173] wilt have power to lay two tributes in one year upon us, thou shouldest also have power to give us two summers, two autumns, and two harvests." This was gallantly and pleasantly spoken unto Antonius by the orator, and it pleased him well to hear it: but afterwards, amplifying his speech, he spake more boldly, and to better purpose: "Asia hath paid thee two hundred thousand talents. If all this money be not come to thy coffers, then ask account of them that levied it: but if thou have received it, and nothing be left of it, then are we utterly undone."

When the Elders who were not APT fired God and demanded a king like the nations it was so that they could WORSHIP like the nations. This is the PATTERN of a Senior Preacher Person intimidating elders and others to let him be the KING. God will abandoned him. See 1 Samuel 8

And Samuel told all the words of the Lord unto the people that asked of him a king. 1 Samuel 8:10

And he said, This will be the manner of the king that shall reign over you: He will take your sons, and appoint them for himself, for his chariots, and to be his horsemen; and some shall run before his chariots. 1 Samuel 8:11

And he will appoint him captains over thousands, and captains over fifties; and will set them to ear his ground, and to reap his harvest, and to make his instruments of war, and instruments of his chariots. 1 Samuel 8:12

And he will take your daughters to be confectionaries, and to be cooks, and to be bakers. 1 Samuel 8:13
And he will
take your fields, and your vineyards, and your oliveyards, even the best of them, and give them to his servants. 1 Samuel 8:14
And he will take the tenth of your seed, and of your vineyards,
       
and give to his officers, and to his servants. 1 Samuel 8:15 [STAFF or PARASITES]

And ye shall cry out in that day because of your king which ye shall have chosen you;
        and the Lord will not hear you in that day. 1 Samuel 8:18

TELL THE KINGS SET OVER YOU THAT THERE IS NO LAW OF TITHING OR OF LAYING BY IN STORE AT THE PREACHER'S BOX.

Ps 150:3 Praise him with the sound of the trumpet: praise him with the psaltery and harp

"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.  

NEBUCHADNEZZAR the king made an image of gold, whose height was threescore cubits (60), and the breadth thereof six (6) cubits: he set it up in the plain of Dura (circle), in the province of Babylon. Dan 3:1

That at what time ye hear the sound of the (1) cornet, (2) flute, (3) harp, (4) sackbut, (5) psaltery, (6) dulcimer, and all kinds of musick, ye fall down and worship the golden image that Nebuchadnezzar the king hath set up: Dan 3:5

"Its (pipe = to love passionately) was apparently a secular instrument and is never listed in the temple orchestra; only in Ps. 150:4 it is mentioned in a religious (but not ritual) function. Its ethos was not blameless at all, as we see from Genesis Rabbah 50:

'The angels said to Lot: 'There are players of the pipe (organ) in the country, hence it ought to be destroyed'." Its rabbinical identification with the aboda, the flute of the notorious Syrian bayaderes, emphasizes the erotic element which already the Hebrew name suggests." (Interpreter's Dictionary of the Bible, p. 460, Abingdon).

The PRESERVED or predestinated out of Israel was a tiny remnant who had NOT bowed to Baal which could happen in Jerusalem.

The Psaltery and Nebel or harp have the same evil ROOTS:

Nebel (h5035) neh'-bel; or nebel nay'-bel; from 5034; a skin- bag for liquids (from collapsing when empty); hence a vase (as similar in shape when full); also a lyre (as having a body of like form): - bottle, pitcher, psaltery, vessel, viol

Nabel (h5034) naw-bale'; a prim. root; to wilt; gen. to fall away, fail, faint; fig. to be foolish or (mor.) wicked; causat. to despise, disgrace: - disgrace, dishonour, lightly esteem, fade (away, - ing), fall (down, -ling, off), do foolishly, come to nought, * surely, make vile, wither..

Nabal (h5036) naw-bawl'; from 5034; stupid; wicked (espec. impious): - fool (-ish, -ish man, -ish woman), vile person.

Because the "god" of the Jews WAS Dionysus or Bacchus imposed because of musical idolatry at Mount Sinai, you should know that PSALLO is never translated in the Greek world as melody.

The worship of Venus was promoted by Caesar, who traced his descent from Aeneas, who was supposed to be the son of Mars and Venus. (See Aeneas.) The month of April, as the beginning of spring, was thought to be peculiarly sacred to the goddess of love, and recalled also the early Italian conception of her functions. Both ideas are beautifully blended in the magnificent apostrophe to Venus Genetrix with which Lucretius commences his poem De Rerum Natura, in which she is regarded as the creative, vivifying force of Nature, the source of life and strength in all things. Respecting the Greek goddess see Aphrodité.

12.22.13  Lucifer is Venus or ZOE and among the matriarchal "mother of harlots" she-he is EVE or EVAH meaning an Abomination. Lucifer is well documented in the Greek literature.  Christ said that when Lucifer was Cast as Profane (Chalal or Halal the "praise" word) into the Garden of Eden She-He was the "singing and harp-playing prostitute." 

The Beginning Mother of Beasts and the End-Time Babylon Mother of Harlots are identical. Paul said that Eve was wholly SEDUCED as a new bride is SEDUCED just before her husband. That is why Cain (from a musical note or mark) was OF that Wicked one.

Eve is mentioned only twice in the New Testament and because Jesus spoke in parables to HIDE the truth from the WISE (sophists=rhetoricians, singers, musicians, actors).  Moses was writing an INVERTED version of Babylon Myths AFTER the nation fell from grace BECAUSE of instrumental idolatry at Mount Sinai.  Therefore, those who mock Paul do not understand that Paul knew all about Eve and scholars know nothing. While not necessarily true, Paul understood that women especially looked to EVE (Zoe, Mary) as THEIR Mediatrix.

The serpents, however, of the magicians-(that is,) the gods of destruction-withstood the power of Moses in Egypt, but the rod of Moses reduced them all to subjection and slew them. This universal serpent is, he says, the wise discourse of Eve. This, he says, is the mystery of Edem, this the river of Edem;
this the mark that was set upon Cain,
that any one who findeth him might not kill him. This, he says, is Cain, [Gen. iv. 15] whose sacrifice [Gen. iv. 5. ] the god of this world did not accept.

Theophilus to Autolycus 

This Eve, on account of her having been in the beginning deceived by the serpent, and become the author of sin, the wicked demon, who also is called Satan, who then spoke to her through the serpent, and who works even to this day in those men that are possessed by him, invokes as Eve.58 And he is called "demon" and "dragon," on account of his revolting from God. For at first he was an angel. And concerning his history there is a great deal to be said; wherefore I at present omit the relation of it, for I have also given an account of him in another place.

58 Referring to the bacchanalian orgies in which " Eva " was shouted, and which the Fathers professed to believe was an unintentional invocation of Eve, the authoress of all sin.

The word "abomination" is also key to understanding the context. In Hebrew, the word "to 'evah," (abomination) is almost invariably linked to idolatry. In the passages from which both verses are taken, God tells Moses to tell the people not to follow the idolatrous practices of the people around them, people who sacrificed their children to Molech, or who masturbated into the fire to offer their semen to Molech, for example. Chapter 20 starts off with the same warning.

"To 'evah" also means "something which is ritually unclean."
But also, concerning music, some have fabled that Apollo [Abaddon, Apollyon]  was the inventor, and others say that Orpheus discovered the art of music from the sweet voices of the birds. Their story is shown to be empty and vain, for these inventors lived many years after the flood. And what relates to Noah, who is called by some Deucalion, has been explained by us in the book before mentioned, and which, if you wish it, you are at liberty to read.

Genesis 1 is exactly parallel to John 1: after Israel fell into instrumental idolatry of their Egyptian gods, God abandoned the later Civil-Military-Clergy complex to worship the same "gods" that appear as Abaddon or Apollyon in Revelation.  The LOCUSTS or MUSES are unleashed from "hell" and Abaddon is the Musical Worship leader. This happened exactly 4000 years after Moses defined the same conflict between LIGHT and DARK.  That was launched by the most virulent, hostile attack against the ANTI-instrumental Churches of Christ mounted exactly 100 years after the first brutal attack.  This convinced Churches of Christ that even friendly fellowship meant that their flock would be Purpose Driven by the boast of "Infiltrating and diverting the church homes of widows and honest workers into A Theater for Holy Entertainment."

Armageddon is not a war of the world but a war of words: a polemic war with shock and awe as the meaning of mechanical Organon used by Jubal's family to bring on the first destruction.

Great tribulation flaunting "the holiness of sin" has accompanied the loss of faith at the end of each DAY period.

Matthew 24:21 For then shall be great tribulation,
        such as was not since the beginning of the world to this time, no, nor ever shall be.
Matthew 24:22 And except those days should be shortened, there should no flesh be saved:
         but for the elect’s sake those days shall be shortened.
Matthew 24:23 Then if any man shall say unto you, Lo, here is Christ, or there; believe it not.
Matthew 24:24 For there shall arise false Christs, and false prophets,
        and shall shew great signs and wonders;
        insomuch that, if it were possible, they shall deceive the very elect.

A million Jews were cast into Tophet (tabret, tambourine) at the first fulfilment. Not one DISCIPLE of Christ was "burned" and the Jews are still looking for their Levites and the tens of thousands of HARPS which according to the Babylonian Prophetic type were "cast alive with their harps along with the king" 

The Spirit OF (preposition) Christ defines the Church in the Wilderness and the future REST after the Jew's Covenant with Death and Hell had been annulled with only a tiny remnant of faithful Jews:
Isaiah 14:9 Hell from beneath is moved for thee to meet thee at thy coming:
        it stirreth up the dead for thee, even all the chief ones of the earth;
        it hath raised up from their thrones all the kings of the nations.

Lucifer is Venus or ZOE and among the matriarchal "mother of harlots" she-he is EVE or EVAH meaning an Abomination. Lucifer is well documented in the Greek literature.  Christ said that when Lucifer was Cast as Profane (Chalal or Halal the "praise" word) into the Garden of Eden She-He was the "singing and harp-playing prostitute."

Madison as the result of the "Jubilee" intending to restructure ALL Churches of Christ was attacked by the Purpose Driven Cult and it appears that the godly elect were "raptured."  This is the end of the road for the Vision 20/20s in most of the assaulted churches of Christ.  Before the Jubilee "frog-boiling" process began Madison boasted that they had over 5000 members and lost only "50": These numbers did and may include 300 members in jail.

THE KINGDOM OF GOD DOES NOT COME WITH RELIGIOUS "OBSERVATIONS" AND THE WARNING IS STILL IN EFFECT

Matthew 24:25 Behold, I have told you before.
Matthew 24:26 Wherefore if they shall say unto you,
        Behold, he is in the desert; go not forth:
        behold, he is in the secret chambers; believe it not.
Matthew 24:27 For as the lightning cometh out of the east, and shineth even unto the west;
         so shall also the coming of the Son of man be.
Matthew 24:28 For wheresoever the carcase is, there will the eagles be gathered together.
Matthew 24:29 Immediately after the tribulation of those days
        shall the sun be darkened,
        and the moon shall not give her light,  [Bible replaced by Theology fit for OUR CHANGED CULTURE.]
        and the stars shall fall from heaven,    [The lucifer or ZOE types]
        and the powers of the heavens shall be shaken:
Matthew 24:30 And then shall appear the sign of the Son of man in heaven:
        and then shall all the tribes of the earth mourn,
        and they shall see the Son of man coming in the clouds of heaven with power and great glory.
Matthew 24:31 And he shall send his angels with a great sound of a trumpet,
        and they shall gather together his elect from the four winds, from one end of heaven to the other.
ALL of the SOUNDS-LIKE INSTRUMENT PASSAGES war of JUDGMENT and commands the godly--be they ever so scare--to GO and preach the gospel to ALL nations.

The Purpose Driven Locusts or MUSES are to COLLECT all of those with the MARK into large Mega-Groups and the GODLY will evaporate as if by magic. Rick Atchleys boasted of 6400 shrank to about 3500 counting both the MOTHER church and the DAUGHTER churches.  They have collected back up to about 4500 by SOUNDING THE TRUMPETS AND THE LOCUSTS-MUSES as Abaddon the Musical Worship Leader.

11.17.13 From Genesis to Revelation and more extreme in these end times (we pray) the Worship Wars have been between:

  1. The Civil-Military-Clergy Complex to which God abandoned the Jacob-Cursed Levites as Sorcerers because of INSTRUMENTAL IDOLATRY of the Egyptian triad under Apis (bull, demon 1 Cor 10).
              --As opposed to godly people who listened to and obeyed The Book of The Covenant of Grace which was the Abrahamic Covenant made by God in Christ.  Neither in The Book of The Covenant nor The Book of The Law are instrumental sounds permitted to intimidate people NOT to listen to that Covenant.   Christ in Numbers forbids it.
  2. Paul leapfrogs all of the "drunk on wine" or being piped or fluted down with wine and identified the tiny few who cannot be intimidated by the Jewish Civil-Military-Clergy. Jesus warned that those who speak the Word (Logos or Regulative Principle) as He articulated the Breath (Spirit) of the One Almighty, would be hated, despised, rejected and subject to attack.
  3. BEASTSS are a Massed Multitude or "A New Style of Music or Drama" which suddenly ATTACKS the songs and sermons already delivered "for our learning" and COMFORT.  The Purpose Driven Restoration defined by Christ from the wilderness onward was restored for a moment as:
           CHURCH is A School of Christ
           WORSHIP is Reading and Musing the Word
    The WORD is the LOGOS which defines the Regulative Principle: it is OPPOSITE of self-preaching, singing, playing instruments or drama. LOGOS OUTLAWS all of the Rhetorical WIND UP making the speaker or his experiences REPLACE the Resurrection.  Only the resurrection Proves that Jesus speaks for God, and He commanded that we teach and observe what HE commanded to be taught. Those who GO BEYOND do not have Christ and are therefore ANTI-Cross and ANTI-Logos delivered by Jesus of Nazareth and left for our "memory."
  4. If they boast about using MUSIC to teach our youth to leave our movement they are violating the direct command NOT to use the TRIUMPH OVER meaning "vocal or instrumental rejoicing or any self-speak." This was reserved to identify Judas as the Son of Perdition. Psalm  41 prophesied that the familiar friend (Judas) would try to TRIUMPH OVER Jesus.  Twp MARKS are:
             The Judas Bag was for carrying the mouthpieces of a wind instrument into which the thieves put their earnings.
            The SOP Jesus fed Judas caused Satan to enter in and destroy him as a failure: even Satan knew that SOP AND PSALLO have the same root meaning.

Rick Atchley: What are you going to wind up with if you follow Jesus? You are going to wind up with a cross on your back, aren’t you? Let me just imagine—I don’t think anybody with a cross on their back, about to die, fussed about a piano (much laughter). Did they? That’s not what you talk about when you are on your way to be crucified. When you and I die to self, we can be of the same mind, even when we are not of the same opinion. I think it is a crucial matter we need to get across. Be of the same mind with one another.

Disciples or Students of Christ ARE of one mind: they speak what Jesus spoke and commanded to be spoken. They obey Romans 15 and SILENCE all of the performers and "use one mind and one mouth to speak that which is written for our learning." They follow the CENI from Christ in the wilderness onward: they PREACH the WORD by READING the Word for Comfort and Doctrine.  "Arousing spiritual anxiety is defined as RECRUCIFYING Christ to ourselves by removing the COOLING of passions resquested by baptism.

Those who MOCK the Regulative Principle defined in the Prophets and Apostles both by the Spirit OF Christ, repudiate the Cross as the mark of a SON who speaks only the words of the FATHER who breaths (spirit) without metron most often meaning without meter.  This is another of Gods Rat Traps to sort out those OF the World lusting to perform COSMIC WORSHIP.  Unfortunate for them, Jesus does not PRAY for them nor does He let them read BLACK text on BROWN paper. To be ANTI-God's Regulative Principle is to be ANTI-Christ who died on the cross to prove that the massed multitudes (beasts) will praise the Lord and stab Him while on the cross.

Acts 8:32 The place of the scripture which he read was this, He was led as a sheep to the slaughter; and like a lamb dumb before his shearer, so opened he not his mouth:

The clergy certainly silenced the Man Jesus of Nazareth but they could not silence Jesus Who returned as Holy Spirit and poured out what you see and hear in the upper room: the wind or BREATH of Christ breathed on the Apostles to give them His WORD or double edged sword. The tongues of fire would be burning up the chaff when the wind separated the grain from the chaff.  John says that the VIPER RACE would be consume.

Acts 8:33 In his humiliation his judgment was taken away: and who shall declare his generation? for his life is taken from the earth.

Self-Pleasure Paul outlawed in Romans 15 identifies a HERETIC: he was the priest who lifted up the lambs to cut their throat while the Levites made instrumental noise and is called a Parasite.

The figure or ANTITUPOS means Instead of. We can be baptized to "wash away our since" INSTEAD of dying for our own sins. THAT is the meaning of GRACE.


1Peter 3:21 The like figure whereunto even baptism doth also now save us
        (not the putting away of the filth of the flesh,
        but the answer of a good conscience toward God,) by the resurrection of Jesus Christ:


A DISCIPLE or STUDENT of Christ who is EXCUSED from the laded burden of religious observations with the "arousal songs and music" Satan uses to MAKE THE LAMBS DUMB BEFORE THE SLAUGHTER.

Only a Disciple is Washed with Water INTO the WORD or into the School of Christ. Anyone PERFORMING any other ACTS is legalistic DENYING the Cross and the WASHING which means to COOL the passions of pride of any human talent.

At Baptism we REQUEST A holy spirit which is A good conscience, consciousness or a Co-Perception of the WORD.  In 2 Corinthians 3 Paul said that without conversion or baptism people cannot READ BLACK text on BROWN paper or HEAR it when the direct command is obeyed to PREACH the Word (only) by READING the Word for Comfort and Doctrine.

Paul gave Timothy the ONE PIECE PATTERN for "Worship."

1Timothy 4:13 Till I come, give attendance to [public] reading, to exhortation, to doctrine.

11.05.13  If you would like to challenge any of the absolute marking of instrumental idolatry from the garden of Eden to a church hear you you can e-mail me in confidence or you may post here without using your name.

The Second Advent will be like the First Advent where the clergy did not know that Messiah had come until He arranged for the destruction of their "covenant with death" and their "mega-church building" and was gone.  ALL of those who boast about using "christian bands to teach your youth to leave your movement" also claim that there is NO command, examples or inferences for what THEY are allowed to do because "a" spirit told them to sow discord have never--at any level of scholarship--has ever grasped that the Spirit OF (a preposition) defines the Church of Christ (the Rock) then and in prophecy both inclusively and exclusively: it excludes anything you do as the works of your hands as a merchandiser of the free water of the WORD (Logos or Regulative Principle). The Prophecy of the Sword of the Spirit as the ONLY weapon to defeat the Lifeless Instruments or Carnal Weapons against the principalities and powers in high places: the podium or pulpit in a visible-audible attack.

11.13.13 Praise Singing did and does CLAIM to lead people into the presence of God. And that is called the Abomination which makes Desolate.  On another forum David's PRAISE is the changelings PATTERNISM for sowing massive discord where music always meant "to make the lambs dumb before the slaughter."

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!

On another forum the Psalm 150 argument is FOUNDATIONAL. They miss that David was King and the Jacob-cursed and God-abandoned Levites were commanded to STAND IN RANKS to execute any "praise singer" who came near or into what they called a "holy place".  Praise singing derived from Egypt threatened the enemy (congregation) if they didn't turn coward they would be Robbed, Raped and Raptured.  Having missed the PATTERN PIECE that God abandoned Israel--especially the Civil-Military-Clergy complex over to Worship the STARRY HOST including Abaddon or Apollyon who, in the texts, is always leader of the MUSES whom John calls sorcerers and contemns the to be cast alive into the Lake of Fire.  Being pretoasted or CONSUMED by the breath (spirit) of their own lips.

11.12.13 Johnny Miles education minister and elder at Heritage follows in the steps of the Abilene Kingdom by authority from Rick Atchley that "the HOLY spirit" gave the elders to fill in the blanks the Spirit OF Christ failed to include.

Johnny Miles where they get AUTHORITY to sow discord and offend many:

Johnny Miles:  Silence, led into a trajectory which spoke where the the Bible does not speak To Illustrate: they watch and belittle Rick Atchley's video and this shows how ridiculous their principle

That's not a fact:
if the Bible SPEAKS then we can find it somewhere in the Bible. Johnny and band agree that God does not COMMAND the use of musical instruments--machines for doing hard work mostly in making war--in the only called assembly of Disciples of Christ. Therefore, the Bible does not speak which would demand something like "thou shalt use mechanical instruments in the qahal, ekklesia, synagogue or Church of Christ (the Rock, Water, Pillar)"  It is a fact that Christ OUTLAWED "vocal or instrumental rejoicing" which includes any self-speak other than the WORD which is Dabar or Logos which is God's Regulative Principle which is the OPPOSITE of rhetoric, singing, playing or acting.

No, it is a FALSEHOOD to say that in 2 Chronicles 29 God "commanded musical instruments as worship".  It is probably the SIGN Jesus warned about when men say that now God COMMANDS that to which He Abandoned the Israelites specificially the civil-military-clergy. In the prophets Christ calls them robbers and parasites.

Neither is there a command, example or remote inference that God called the godly into assembly for congregational singing with or without instruments.  However, the major discord over introducing singing as a ACT in the year 373 has cooled off and people make Paul's command to SPEAK that which is written for our learning into SING that which is NOT written for our learning.  If God commands SPEK in the LOGOS sense then any Greek scholar would know that self-speaking, singing, playing an instrument or acting is EXCLUDED by the definition of the Word.  Any Bible scholar would know that psallo never means more than pull or smite a string with your FINGERS but NEVER with a plectrum or guitar pick. Therefore, a minimal understanding of language knows that a word to act doing something can never be liberated to mean doing something else.  By definition you cannot SING the commanded Scriptures when the command is to SPEAK them. And further common sense understands that the Purpose Driving Speaking is to teach and admonish one another: READ the Scriptures publically and mutually confess them for comfort and doctrine.

If I found myself captivated in a pseudo Christian assembly and the Senior Pastor said that he was not bound by the rules for mixing KoolAid I believe or hope that I would try to get out before the Towers Fall. Unfortunately, all recorded history identifies instrumental noise as witchcraft or sorcery making it impossible for most people to move.  Music from mystery means "to make the lambs dumb before the slaughter.

I take it all back that Back, Rick Atchley etal banding with the Christian Church and reading off their supplied "white paper" says that Hezekiah's Plague-stopping animal slaughter is their spirit-led command to IMPOSE what they call "musical worship." From Psalm 150 we know that only those WITH BREATH can praise God and we don't use Lifeless Instruments or Carnal Weapons always associated with making war or making unnatural love.
God commanded that the Levites Stand In Ranks during the slaughter of innocent animals which Christ says God did NOT command.
When they made a great crashing noise it was by the COMMAND OF DAVID.  The noise was called EXORCISM in the plague-stopping slaughter and it 
warned godly Jew (including the Levites) that if they came near or into any of the closed spaces their "brethren" were commanded to execute them.
Stephen: because of their musical idolatry at Mount Sinai God abandoned the Israelites to Worship the Starry host. We know that Apollo, Abaddon or Apollyon was a sun god who HAS been unleashed is the LEADER of the MUSES or LOCUSTS in John's understanding.
The Abilene Band: No, God commanded US to impose musical idolatry. In Revelation the musical performancers called SORCERY is the mark of God in Christ REMOVING them from His assembly along with the Lamps (7 spirits of Christ Isaiah 1) and has abandoned them to be cast alive into the lake of fire.
Christ in Amos 8 defined the Prophetic Pattern that the songs in the temple have become howling (praise singers) and God said He would not pass by there again.
If I held a debate with three empty chairs and getting affirmation, and jumped around and misstated the universal understanding of LOGOS and worked really hard trying to convince myself that God was REALLY silent, I would be put into a safe place.  A Disciple of Christ is the only Christian and a Christian gladly receive the teachings of Christ in the prophets and apostles.  A person who becomes a Professional Provider of the presumed LAPSES of God cannot be a Disciple.  The small band of merry men out of Texas INVENTED the idea that the Scriptures had run their course and if God had KNOWN how our culture has changed HE would agree with THEM. 

Rick Atchley
made himself look ridiculous. Rick and followers simply cannot grasp that the LOGOS which is God's REGULATIVE principle. Everyone before the Batch Hatched out of Abilene understood that a Church of Christ is a School of the Word and must be APOSTOLIC. If the Apostles and prophets did not teach it then it has no role to play in the Assembly: both ekklesia and synagogue EXCLUDED anything but the WORD. Rick Atchley will not "give a reason" for any hope for false teachers and deliberate sowers of discord. Maybe if he would find some better authority for sowing discord people might be kinder.
Isaiah 8:20 To the law and to the testimony:
        if they SPEAK not according to this word[Dabar-Logos]
        it is because there is no light in them.
Christ revealed ALL of the light in the Prophets and Apostles and a disciple would not try to use SILENCE as a legalistic end rune.

See Rick Atchley who is the FOUNDATION upon whom Heritage is building which proves that they do NOT accept Scripture as having authority above the preacher who has no Bible role and no Dole.
Luke 11:49 Therefore also said the wisdom of God,
         I will send them prophets and apostles, and some of them they shall slay and persecute:
Ephesians 2:19 Now therefore ye are no more strangers and foreigners,
        but fellowcitizens with the saints, and of the household of God;
Ephesians 2:20 And are built upon the foundation of the apostles and prophets,
        Jesus Christ himself being the chief corner stone;
Ephesians 2:21 In whom all the building fitly framed together groweth unto an holy temple in the Lord:
Ephesians 2:22 In whom ye also are builded together for an habitation of God through the Spirit.
This is CENI that A Church of Christ IS educated by the Prophets and Apostles. Christ inspired the Prophets to exclude they hypocritic arts and crafts and declared that people who do not teach the WORD have no light within them. We collectively become a holy temple in the Lord. He is the king, priests and only master teacher. In the Carnal Temple built by human hands where god DID NOT DWELL, If a Jacob-cursed and God-abandoned Levite who performed SORCERY with instrument went NEAR or INTO any of the presumed-sacred spaces was to be EXECUTED by his brethren.


1Corinthians 3:11 For other foundation can no man lay than that is laid, which is Jesus Christ.
1Corinthians 3:16 Know ye not that ye are the temple of God,
         and that the Spirit of God dwelleth in you? [My WORD is Spirit and Life John 6:63]
1Corinthians 3:17 If any man defile the temple of God,
        him shall God destroy; for the temple of God is holy, which temple ye are.

ALL of history associates religious musicians with gender-bent and calls them PARASITES. Decent Greek society recommended a kinder way of Tarring and Feathering them and casting them out of their territory

"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.

"Awed by the mysteries of his own spirit no less than by those of nature, primitive man was likely to attribute to divine influence

any abnormal emotional state, whether above or below the usual level. Medicine men customarily went into states of trance in which they were believed to be in communication with the gods,

and many tribes supposed lunatics and sexual deviants to be divinely possessed.

'Certain members of a tribe, marked out either by unusual skills or by some emotional abnormality, ususally became particularly adept at these operations, and gradually assumed specialized functions. Released from the duty of hunting, and concentrating on the practice of magic, the shaman, sorcerer, or medicine man was the world's first professional." (H. Bamfort Parkes, Of Gods and Men, p. 29).

Johnny Miles: Where do we the elders get our authority to IMPOSE something Christ did not teach? Why, WE got it from God. God empowerd men to make decisions by the indwelling Spirit.  God empowers those who imbibe the Holy Spirit to to engage culture.
THE BIBLE AND ALL RELIGIOUS TRADITIONS SAYS THAT 'THE DEVIL MADE THEM DO IT." After all, Abaddon or Apollyon is the Leader of the Muses.

"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). Jubal HANDLED all of those instruments meaning WITHOUT AUTHORITY or in a sexual sense.

The Marzeah in Amos 5

"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).

The word lelein is fundamentally an onomatopoetic one, meaning, as Thayer's Lexicon puts it, to go 'la-la'.  The Greeks shouted 'alala' both in worship and in war, and personified Alala as a deity (Pindar, Fr. 208 [78]; Plutarch 2.3496).  It was this same repetitive and meaningless syllabification in pagan prayers which Jesus described: 'for they think they shall be heard for their much speaking' (Matthew 6:7) 

New patterns of Christian worship appear to have been more difficult for women to adopt than men, as they had not known the dignified rite of Apollo or Zeus.  For the most part, their religious expression had been accompanied by extravagances of every sort.  We may quote Iamblichus again:

We affirm, accordingly, not only that the shoutings and choric songs are sacred to the gods, each and all of them, as being peculiarly their own, but likewise that there is a kindred relationship between them in their proper order . . . and the peculiar usages of Sabazian worship make ready for the Bacchic enthusiasm, the purifying of souls, and deliverances from old incriminations, their respective inspirations are, accordingly, different in every important particular.

Thou seemest to think that those who are enrapt by the Mother of the gods are males, for thou callest them, accordingly, 'Metrizontes' yet that is not true, for the 'Metrizontesae' are chiefly women (op cit., pp. 121-123 

Such women must learn that they were purified not through shouting but through the blood of Christ and through the washing of the water of the Word.

"Long before Israel's existence, we find in Akkadian tablets the word halhallatu for 'double clarinet,' and we have many ancient representations of this instruments... Extremely popular for SECULAR purposes, the clarinet was played at WEDDINGS, BANQUETS, and FUNERAL. At funerals it served as accompaniment to the customary WAILING women; this is the meaning of Matt. 9:23. The chief characteristics of the clarinet were: popularity, juxtaposition with hand drum and lyre, expression of extreme emotionalism, and symbolic meaning of FERTILITY and RESURRECTION." (Int. Std. Bible Dict., p. 472).

NOT EVEN JESUS HAD A HOLY SPIRIT PERSON DWELLING INSIDE OF HIM.  He SPOKE what god BREATHED (Spirit) into Him without METRON which often means "Without Meter." Jesus spoke the WORD or LOGOS or REGULATIVE PRINCIPLE and that excludes rhetoric, poetry or music. That is why you find nothing in God's word related to musical performance: only those abandoned by God made instrumental NOISE.

A personal UNholy spirit is made into A holy spirit when their "sins are washed away only by obedience in baptism.

Walter Scott, Alexander Campbell and reading 101a affirms that those who are baptized into the name (singular) of Jesus Christ are given A holy spirit when THEIR unholy spirit has its "sins washed away."  The same Peter says that BAPTISM SAVES US because that is the only Christ-ordained way to REQUEST A good conscience or consciousness meaning a CO-perception.  In 2 Corinthians 3 being converted gives us the ability to HEAR the Word (Logos only) when it is PREACHED by being READ or to read BLACK text on BROWN paper when reading the text. John says that the NAME (singular) of the Paraklete or Comforter is Jesus Christ. And Jesus said that Father-Son abides with or in those who KEEP THE COMMANDMENTS. In the same frigurative way (to fool the merchants says Jesus) WE abide or dwell IN the Father-Son when we keep the WORD or LOGOS or Regulative principle. IN obviously does not mean INSIDE OF.  Jesus said MY WORDS ARE SPIRIT AND LIFE.  The only access to the Spirit OF (a preposition) of Christ is in what He delivered in the Prophets and Apostles.  The Spirit OF Christ left no holes in the donut and defined the church inclusively and exclusively: He radically repudiates all of the musical performances as Sorcery or Witchcraft.  A Church of Christ is built upon or EDUCATED solely on the Prophets and Apostle.  The For Hire Changelings do NOT have a holy spirit person inside of them telling them to despise the Word of Christ which is blasphemy.


It is a lie for any human who has not seen and heard the risen Christ to say that the Spirit OF Christ which He defined as HIS WORDS (John 6:63) tell them something which cannot be HEARD by the congregation who gets to follow that elder who is faithful and obeys his only authority.  Johnny relies on Rick Atchley and his debate with three empty chairs

In Ephesians 4 Paul absolutely demands that the role of the elders is to EXCISE the Cunning Craftsmen or Sophists: they are self-speakers, singers, instrument players, actors or anyone who goes beyond being a faithful Teacher of that which is written for our LEARNING. Scripture was not written for instrumental patternists to build up their own little kingdom making serfs of the 'audience.' That defines a CULT.
Ephesians 4:21 If so be that ye have heard him,
        and have been taught by him, as the truth is in Jesus:
Colossians 2:7 Rooted and built up in him,
        and stablished in THE FAITH as ye have BEEN TAUGHT,
        abounding therein with thanksgiving.

IF THIS SUNDAY IF THE PREACHER "SCRIBES" HIS OWN SERMON AND THE SINGERS SING THEIR OWN NON-BIBLICAL COMPOSITIONS THIS IS A SUPERNATURAL SIGN CHRIST LEFT IN PROPHETIC CERTAINTY OF THOSE WORKING PROFESSIONALLY TO "TAKE AWAY THE KEY TO KNOWLEDGE." If you don't believe it that's ok: Jesus spelled it out that MANY or most are called or invited but FEW are chosen meaning tested as by fire.

The LOGOS (Regulative Principle) SPEAKING words are the OPPOSITE of self-speak, poetry, singing, playing instruments or drama.
ALL of the assembly words command SPEAKING as the logical (logos) method of Teaching and Admonishing: Doctrine and Comfort.
The ODE is OPPOSITE to LEXIS; LEXIS is OPPOSITE to ODE.  Ode and Psallo are SILENT (to God). In the Heart (mind, spirit) is Jesus insistence that worship is in the PLACE of the sanctified human spirit as it gives attendance (the only worship word) to THE TRUTH: the LOGOS of God through Jesus is the ONLY truth.

Is the sinful woman at the well the only person who grasped that when Messias comes He will tell us ALL THINGS.

[398a] “True,” he said. “If a man, then, it seems, who was capable
        by his cunning [sophias] of assuming every kind of shape and imitating all things should arrive in our city,
        bringing with himself the poems which he wished to exhibit,
        we should fall down and worship him as a holy and wondrous and delightful creature,
        but should say to him that there is no man of that kind among us in our city,
        nor is it lawful for such a man to arise among us,
        and we should send him away to another city,

Hebrews 11:6 But without faith it is impossible to please him:
            for he that cometh to God must believe that he is,
            and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him.
Hebrews 11:7 By faith Noah, being warned of God of things not seen as yet,

That is why Jesus warned NOT to attend those Religious Services or observations to which the Kingdom DOES NOT COME and worship IN THE PLACE of the human Spirir when it gives attendance (the unique worship word) to the reading of the Word for Comfort and Doctrine

It is despising the Spirit OF Christ to claim that He was not as smart as the simple simons who knew that you need COMPOUND WORDS to describe playing and instrument AND singing at the same time which was always the mark of gender bleed says Plato.

Plat. Laws 669de   whereas human poets, by their senselessness in mixing such things and jumbling them up together, would furnish a theme for laughter to all the men who, in Orpheus' phrase, “have attained the full flower of joyousness.” For they behold all these things jumbled together, and how, also, the poets rudely sunder rhythm and gesture from tune, putting tuneless words into meter, [There is NO metrical Scripture] or leaving time and rhythm without words, and using the bare sound of harp or flute, wherein it is almost impossible to understand what is intended by this wordless rhythm and harmony, or what noteworthy original it represents. Such methods, as one ought to realize, are clownish in the extreme in so far as they exhibit an excessive craving for speed, mechanical accuracy, and the imitation of animals' [Beasts] sounds, and consequently employ the pipe and the harp without the accompaniment of dance and song;

SO, we know that the LOCUSTS are the MUSES unleashed with Abaddon or Apollo who is the Leader of the Musicians.
That is always defined as  SPEAK that which is written for our learning which happens ONLY in the sanctified spirit or mind.
ODE and PSALLO are in the heart meaning SILENT because Ode and Speak are OPPOSITE and antithetical.

Meanwhile we sing of how the son of Amphitryon, a bold-minded man, left Oechalia devoured by fire, [15] and arrived at the headland with waves all around it; there he was going to sacrifice from his booty nine loud-bellowing bulls for Cenaean Zeus, lord of the wide-spread clouds

Before WE can impose instruments over YOUR the Hir-ER, we have to reorganize and demote the elders but select special-servants (Deaconesses) and deprive YOU of any right to oppose "god's annointeds."
Liv. 2 56 [3] It was no trivial matter which he proposed under this form, which at [p. 409] first sight appeared so harmless, but one that completely deprived the patricians of the power of using their clients' votes to select what tribunes they liked.

Musical Worship Ministers and the new "leaders" INTEND to silence the elders as the only Christ-ordained Pastor-Teacher
Malachi 2:7 For the priest’s lips should keep knowledge, and they should seek the law at his mouth:
        for he is the messenger of the LORD of hosts.
Malachi 2:8 But ye are departed out of the way; ye have caused many to stumble at the law;
        ye have corrupted the covenant of Levi, saith the LORD of hosts.
Malachi 2:9 Therefore have I also made you contemptible and base before all the people,
        according as ye have not kept my ways, but have been partial in the law.

For your information, God did not hint of any kind of instrumental "worship" in the law: the law was added because of instrumental idolatry at Mount Sinai.

The Law PROHIBITED instruments such as the trumpet which was reserved to warn, alert or pronounce judgment. He ordained TWO SILVER trumpets of one piece which would eleminate an complexisty. The Law did NOT command king, kingdom, temple or priests. God commanded that the levite Noise makers stand guard and execute any of the NOT-ABANDONED people who came near or into any 'holy place.'

By definition of the Greeks rhetoric, poetry or music is LYING because they were not permitted to write TRUE HISTORY
                 A Philosopher was prevented by Athenian Law from ever being SENT as a Kerusso (preacher) or Presbyter (elder)

           Jas 5:6 YE have condemned and killed the just; and he doth not resist you.

Isaiah 59:15 Yea, truth faileth; and he that departeth from evil maketh himself a prey:
        and the LORD saw it, and it displeased him that there was no judgment.
Isaiah 59:16 And he saw that there was NO MAN, and wondered that there was no intercessor:
        therefore his ARM brought salvation unto him; and his righteousness, it sustained him.

Isa 59:17 For he put on righteousness as a breastplate,
           and a helmet of salvation upon his head;
           and he put on the garments of vengeance for clothing,
           and was clad with zeal as a cloak.

Isa 59:18 According to their deeds,
           accordingly he will repay, fury to his adversaries,
           recompense to his enemies;
           to the islands he will repay recompense.

Isa 59:19 So shall they fear the name of the Lord from the west,
           and his glory from the rising of the sun.
           When the enemy shall come in like a flood,
           the Spirit of the Lord shall lift up a standard against him.

And the Redeemer shall come to Zion, and
           unto them that turn from transgression in Jacob, saith the Lord. Isa 59:20

The word RETURN or CONVERT is done ONLY at the time and place of baptism in the New Testament.

Isa 59:21 As for me, this is my covenant with them, saith the Lord;
           My spirit that is upon thee,
           and my words which I have put in thy mouth,
           shall not depart out of thy mouth,
           nor out of the mouth of thy seed,
           nor out of the mouth of thy seeds seed,
           saith the Lord, from henceforth and for ever.

This is a parallelism: both SPIRIT or WORDS are in our MOUTH for ever. Isaiah does not have to say that the sirit will never depart from us.

The Word HAS departed when we SPEAK our own words rather than teach "that which is written" meaning Scripture.

The Jews are still looking for their tens of thousands of musical instruments [from Egypt] so they can RESTART the slaughter of the innocents.  In the prophetic type of the king (queen) of Babylon the Levites and probably their instruments were cast into the garbage pit to burn up on a bed of maggots.  This will be the mark of the second advent where the speakers, singers, players and all religious teknocrats who perform sorcery will be cast alive into the Lake of Fire.  Music derived from mystery intends to "make the lambs dumb before the slaughter" and the goal is working to make people dumb and dumber and they are lulled by the locusts or muses with Abaddon, Apollyon being the Musical Worship Leader.  The word ZOE is LUCIFER well documented in the Greek literature.  About 25% of the property and a huge percentage of the GNP is held by "religionists."  Amos warned then and now, the singing in the temple will be turned into howling (we call that praise singing). This was the mark of the clergy having starved the people for lack of the WORD (Dabar-Logos) and the message that "God would not pass by there again."

WILL ONE OF THEM GIVE AN ANSWER TO WHY THEY ARE LYING TO GOD, ABOUT GOD AND TO THEIR TAKEN-CAPTIVE FLOCKS?

The Hireling-Changelings will NOT give an answer for their folly: they don't have to since you can fool most of the people most of the time and paraphrasing Paul, "fools love to be fooled" because they are OF the World and not even Jesus prays for them.

I.  A False Teacher is one who does not know that A Church of Christ is a School of the Word. The Word or LOGOS is the Regulative Principle or Governing Principle and is the opposite of self-references, poetry, music, playing instruments, drama or dancing (all of that gyrating by the "team")

Thomas Campbell: Worship IN Spirit and IN Truth
  Spirit is a PLACE in contrast to Gerizim and Zion.  They WORD is Truth: the Spirit OF TRUTH uniquely

Thomas Campbell: Worship IN Spirit and IN Truth Number Two

That was the Purpose Driving the Campbells but not the Stoneites.

       A. Christ's CENI is defined inclusively and exclusively in the Prophets by the Spirit OF Christ.
       B. He taught and commanded the Apostles to teach what He commanded to be taught:
                    a disciple cannot say "BUT, He did not say....."
        C. The apostles as eye and ear witnesses left their "part" in a written memory.
                They defined the REST of Christ exactly as Christ defined it for the godly people
                   who lived during the Monarchy but were quarantined FROM the not-commanded sacrificial system.
                            Those who read the whole thought pattern and define words understand that Paul and Peter
                                  affirm that Christ ordained the elders as Pastor-Teachers as the sole teachers of the Word.
                            They silence the cunning craftsmen-sophists or rhetoricians, singers and instrument players
                                    So that the Word (only) can be Preached by being Read.
                                          
II. A False Teacher and self-Judged professional does not know or will not TELL you that in Scripture and contemporaneous literature the invention of string and metallic tones were the INSTRUMENTS-WEAPONS of the world's oldest professionals.  Cain is derived from a Musical Note or Mark and Jubal "handled" instruments meaning "without authority." He could sell you your own lambs or the "Free water of the Word" where the command is NOT to pay for it.

They discovered--without knowing about the string theory--that human flesh can be manipulated into paying Priests-Sorcerers for conducting "worship services" claiming that, for instance, Nimrod's female music team could "regenerate morals through external means."  That ancient fraud was practiced at Jerusalem by Jacob-cursed and God-abandoned Levites.

III. A False Teacher and self-judged (and the people said, Amen) probably do not know nor care that all of the "instrumental passages" Including the Serpent or Lucifer as the "singing and harp playing prostitute" are all connected to the sounds or MARKS of God driving His enemies into "Hell" or the Lake of fire.

IV. A False Teacher and corrupter of the Word meaning "selling learning at retail or prostitution" does not know or WILL NOT TELL that there is no command, example or remote hint that the godly Jews ever attended "worship services" at the temple with singing and instrumental "music." God had abandoned the Civil-Military-Clergy class and in the Prophets God calls them robbers and parasites.  Christ said that God DID NOT COMMAND that to which God abandoned people and sold to you as a new "pattern."

IV. A False Teacher and does not know or CANNOT tell in the interest of career path that:
        The direct commandS, approved examples and necessarily inferred to anyone wanting to hear FROM Jesus
        as the Only Teacher only when:
                A.  The self-governed assembly "uses one mind and one mouth to speak
                          that which is written for out learning.
                          Paul says that this is how we receive COMFORT from the Paraklete through Scripture.
                B. ANY Godly elder will as commanded "Teach that which has been taught" and rebuke or
                     excise anyone who opposes "that which is written for our learning.
                        Disciples of Christ attend the School (ekklesia-synagogue) of Christ: others attend neo-pagan
                        "worship services" or WORK services where people are PAID for WORK but Jesus said the Kingdom
                        does not come to such observations.

V. A False Teacher does not know or will NOT tell that there is NO metrical "that which is written for our learning" and you cannot sing it tunefully and no one did so until post-Reformation radical rewriting some Psalms (only). Jesus SPOKE what Father (Theos) BREATHED (Spirit) without METRON.  Metron is most often used of "measure" or meter. That would seem to be proven because God provided NOTHING which could be sung or performed by SOPHISTS: rhetoricians, singers, instrument players.

In one sense, if God BREATHED (and so pneuma means) the WORD without limitation and Jesus SPOKE everything that mankind needed for life and godliness the, as stated many times, no human has the right to violate the direct command and NO-COST PATTERN to preach the Word by  reading the Word for comfort and doctrine.

Equally as damning, if God BREATHES His Word without METER then we know why no scholar can find anything God supplied which CAN BE set to musical performance: good for the tiny remnant because they do not get abraded (psallo, sop) by silly "praise singers" bringing effeminancy or worse into the "holy place." Under the cursed monarchy that would cause even a Levite to be executed by the "brethren."

VI. False Teachers and "scholars" do not know or will not tell because they believe that you have no right to know what the "leaders" are deciding for you, is that no Church of Christ (in all ages) could even hallucinate singing as an ACT (that legalistic thingy) until it was imposed by a Syriac Bishop in the year 373 long after Constantine allowed unwashed religious workers to be paid a salary. This SPLIT the east from the west.  The Greek churches never sang but cantillated where the "notes" are for emphasis during READING as commanded.

VII. False teachers hate the epistles because they utterly condemn what is defined as the circa 2000 ad  "institution" with a huge staff which must be fed from widow's purse or that of honest workers.  Paul said that giving EVEN for the destitute was NOT a command and any special emphasis even by his presence would be EXTORTION and that is grouped with SORCERY by the SOPHISTS meaning rhetoricians, singers, instrument players and ALL craftsmen which is equated to the sophists in Ephesians 4.  This is the confession:

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!

And YOU feed their face and are co-conspirators in the NACC plot using a few dupes.

VIII Hirelings have learned how to use intimidation to cower the elders and members into submitting to a pathetic plot saying that God commanded them to command "instrumental praise" and it would be a sin to "oppose god's annointed ones." Bunko: Jesus cast them out of the Temple COURT yard along with the musical minstrels He cast out "more or less violently as one ejects dung" out of His presence when He is doing His Work.

I can go on and on and one--and I probably will. However, those willing to sow massive discord to take away your property so they can make it--at a huge cost--into a theater for holy entertainment can not find a jot or tittle of any musical connection to the assembly of the godly people from Genesis to Revelation or most historic scholarship.  If this is not the fulfillment of Revelation 17-18 then we missed a perfect example.

Revised 11.O3.13 A Church of Christ is built upon or EDUCATED by the Prophets and Apostles: The prophets spoke by the Spirit OF Christ to define the godly people Whom He quarantined FROM the Jewish and other pagan sacrificial systems. The strong deluders do not know or care to know that it was because of the PLAY or musical idolatry playing loud instruments and playing with one another says Paul in Romans1.
        That God "turned them over to worship the starry host" and sentenced them to "beyond Babylon" which is understood to be without redemption: 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.

The Spirit OF (the spirit or mind OF Christ) defined the REST both inclusively and exclusively in the PROPHETS but the Patternist Plotters are led by "a spirit" to lead THEIR church into the "beyond Babylon" curse.


The Spirit OF Christ defined the Qahal, synagogue, ekklesia or Church of Christ (the Rock) both inclusively beginning in the Wildernes.  All of the hypocritic or self-speak was excluded. [fixed link]  See the Synagogue which never changed in being A School of the Word OF God which  excluded vocal or instrumental rejoicing or self-speak.  See John Calvin' description of the Church in the wilderness: this prompted  him to call for a Restoration of the Church of Christ

The Spirit OF Christ warned against the Jacob-cursed and God-abandoned Levites who performed as instrumental SORCERERS during the not-commanded sacrificial system. Any godly person who came near or into any 'holy place' was to be executed by the instrumentalists Levites  Even a Levite singer or instrumental noise maker who went into the Holy Place of the King's Temple or Shrine was to be executed by the "brethren."  In 2 Chronicles 29 which is used by Rick Atckley and the others to be THEIR command to impose "instrumental praise"--whatever that is, the Levites were NOT permitted to enter either the claimed "holy place" or "most holy place" even to clean out garbage.  No! God's command to the Levite noise makers was to stand in ranks to execute any presumptious person who came inside the gates. Only when the burnt offering of the Goats began did the Levites make a great crashing noise BY THE COMMAND OF DAVID.

Christ spoke spiritual truth only through the Prophets and Jesus made them more certain. The Apostles as eye-and ear-witnesses taught and WROTE a "memory" for us. That is why A church of Christ is built upon the Prophets and Apostles and even elders are restricted to "teaching that which has been taught."

If people use the cursed-Monarchy as their PATTERN and say that God COMMANDED instrumental music in the collected assembly then Christ in Jeremiah 23 says that the DESPISE or BLASPHEME the Holy Spirit OF Christ.

If the Spirit OF Christ in the prophets MARKS musical instruments as proof that the hypocrites (speakers, singers, instrument players) are PREVENTING the godly people from hearing the Word of God which would be The Book of The Covenant of Grace for the spiritual people.

And the band of Purpose Driven preachers suddenly launch an effort to say that (1) God never said anything bad about instruments FOR wordhip. And furthermore, being handled by the NACC say that GOD COMMANDED instruments and now the implication that it is SINFUL to fight their movement. That was the thesis of all of the debaters.

Robert Ballard and the NACC: and to refuse to permit that which God Himse;f has (P93) SAID TO USE. To forbid their use, where God has  SAID TO USE THEM, as in Eph. 5:19 and Col. 3:16 is flagrant sin (Rev 22:18:19)
  1. Then you have to side with those who say that The Holy Spirit OF Christ just flat lied along with the Christ-inspired Epistles.  This CONFLICT between Instruments and the Word fill the Bible but Jesus said that the role of "doctors of the law was to take away the key to knowledge."
  2. Or you have agreed to be COMMUNED (Community Church) and Taken Captive by those who claim that THEY see visions and hear voices and "we want the property we let you invest in.

    The FOUNDATION laid by Rubel Shelly is that "Individuals no longer have the right to read, interpret or speak the Word outside of the community interpretation.  That means that the New Senior Pulpit Pastor persons take away your money (with no Biblical authority) and take away your right to speak to the leadership AND the elders unless it is a Salvation Issue.

    Rubel Shelly and John York:
    While we still have access to reading as individuals, we stop asking, "What does this mean to me?"--as though there is such an isolated meaning.Instead we have a GROUP MENTALITY that asks, "What does this mean to US?"

It would not be possible for casual Bible Readers to claim "a" spirit guided them into violating all that the Spirit has left for our example.  That is why we are warned that elders turn into wolves and open the gates.  Angels of Blight are dangerous. It matters not to them: they boast about how we were Purpose Driven to sow massive discord so that they could take you property and happy church family and turn it over to those spending fortunes to Turn It into a Theater for Holy Entertainment.

Here is just one of the HOST of direct association between WITCHCRAFT and refusing to Teach that which Has been written.  See Isaiah 8 inspired by the Spirit OF Christ for the spiritual people then and now.

Isa 8:17 And I will wait upon the Lord,
        that hideth his face from the house of Jacob,
        and I will look for him. 
Isa 8:18 Behold, I and the children whom the Lord hath given me
        are for signs and for wonders in Israel from the Lord of hosts,
        which dwelleth in mount Zion. 
Isa 8:19
And when they shall say unto you,
        Seek unto them that have familiar spirits,
        and unto wizards that peep, and that mutter:
                should not a people seek unto their God?
                for the living to the dead

Paul CAST OUT the Phythian spirit from the young girl so the frauds could not make a profit out of her musical soothsaying.

"In Isa 8:19 the 'obhoth and yidh'onim are spoken of those who 'chirp and mutter." These terms refer to the necromancers themselves who practiced ventriloquism in connection with their magical rites. In Isa 29:4 it is said 'Thy voice shall be as an 'obh, out of the ground.'... They are stamped in these passages, as in the Witch of Endor narrative, as deceivers practising a fraudulent art. By implication their power to evoke spirits with whom they were in familiar intercourse is denied." (Int Std Bible Ency., ency, p. 690)

In Amos: "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).

Plat. Euthyd. 289d On what proof do you rely?

Hence it is clear that in speech likewise there are two distinct arts, one of making and one of using
Plat. Euthyd. 289e For not only do these speech-writers themselves, when I am in their company, impress me as prodigiously clever, Cleinias, but their art itself seems so exalted [thaumaston: lying wonders] as to be almost inspired. However, this is not surprising; for it is a

Even those who wrote on clay tablets knew that the invention of metallic or other sounds made into an instrument Abraded (the Psallo or Sop) the human spirit.  The drug high was sold by "prophets and priests" as the gods speaking to them.

Jesus Christ is the ONLY light of the World:  His Word is the only TRUTH.

The Abilene Dogma is correct: Christ never said "thou shalt not be a witch or sorcery where any complex noise including instrumental sounds are the MOST POWERFUL of causing Wrath or Orgy facilitated most often by dominant females

If you sell ANYTHING you fabricate or compose Jesus wants you to know that the "doctors of the law take away the key to knowledge." The Scribes or self-writers are defined by Jesus as hypocrites in Ezekiel 33 meaning slick speakers, singers or instrument players. The Spirit OF Christ says that this is the MARK of both clergy and audience who have no motive  other than being entertained for PAY with no intention of obeying it. This does not CAUSE you to fall from Grace but Scripture including Isaiah 30 and Revelation parallel to Amos 8 is proof that "Jesus has been there and will not pass by again."
Revelation 1:2 Who bare record of the WORD of God,
        and of the testimony of Jesus Christ,

Revelation 1:9 I John, who also am your brother, and companion in tribulation,
        and in the kingdom and patience of Jesus Christ, 

Jesus never preached "Jesus or the Cross": He and others preached the Gospel of the Kingdom. The Kingdom of God is the Church of Christ (mostly invisible) and Jesus is still King and ONLY teacher when the APT elders teach that which has been taught.

        was in the isle that is called  Patmos, for the WORD of God,
        and for the testimony of Jesus Christ.

Perhaps it is whistling in the cemetary just before the Lake of fire to try to silence the WORD and TESTIMONY. 
Revelation 6:9 And when he had opened the fifth seal,
        I saw under the altar the souls of them
                that were slain for the word of God,
                and for the testimony which they held:

And those who murder the Prophets and Apostles are those who make a PROFESSION out of standing in their 'holy places' claiming that THEY are the latter day Prophets and Apstles called the MISSIONAL CHURCH for which you can get a Doctor of the Law.
Revelation 12:17 And the dragon was wroth with the woman,
        and went to make war [worship wars they claim with violence]
        with the remnant of her seed,
                which keep the commandments of God,
                and have the testimony of Jesus Christ.

Is there trouble in Abilene City with reading BLACK TEXT on BROWN PAPER: Paul in Romans 3 makes the PATTERN READING the Word or HEARING the Word when it is READ: Remember that the PATTERN from the wilderness onward was to PREACH the Word (only) by READING the Word for Comfort and Doctrine while everyone RESTED from the Laded Burden (that arousal music) and the Burden Laders known as PARASITES in all sacrificial or ceremonial religion: it's called Ceremonial Legalism.

In John 6 the BREAD and LIFE and SPIRIT which came down from God is defined by Jesus to those with A NEED TO KNOW and who are given A holy spirit when they are washed with water INTO the Word or School of Christ.

Revelation 19:10 And I fell at his feet to worship him. And he said unto me, See thou do it not: I am thy fellowservant,
        and of thy brethren that have the testimony of Jesus: worship God:
        for the testimony of Jesus is the SPIRIT of prophecy.


IF YOU PREACH JUST JESUS RATHER THAN "KNOW" OR SUFFER LIKE JESUS HE DEFINED THE ONLY BREAD FROM GOD THAT BRINGS SPIRIT AND LIFE. If you don't teach that which has been taught then you CANNOT be a Christian which is a DISCIPLE of what Jesus commanded to be taught and observed.

John 6:62 What and if ye shall see the Son of man ascend up where he was before?
John 6:63 It is the SPIRIT that quickeneth; the flesh profiteth nothing:
        the WORDS that I SPEAK unto you, they are SPIRIT, and they are LIFE.
John 6:64 But there are some of you that believe not.
        For Jesus knew from the beginning who they were that believed not, and who should betray him.

The Judas Bag or box was for carrying the mouthpieces of wind instruments ALWAYS attached to a flute case  and well represented on Greek Vases:

John 6:65 And he said, Therefore said I unto you, that no man can come unto me,
        except it were given unto him of my Father.

John 6:66 From that time many of his disciples went back, and walked no more with him.
John 6:67 Then said Jesus unto the twelve, Will ye also go away?
John 6:68 Then Simon Peter answered him, Lord, to whom shall we go? thou hast the words of eternal life.

LUKE AFFIRMS: Acts 2:41 Then they that gladly received HIS WORD were baptized:
        and the same day there were added unto them about three thousand souls.

LUCADO ETAL DENIES: No one has their sins remitted or "washed away" but those who "call upon the name of the Lord" which in 1 Peter 3:21 means to REQUEST A good conscience which is A holy spirit without which Christ will NOT add you to HIS Church nor will HE translate that now-holy spirit into a Heavenly Kingdom. If you can see it, hear it, smell it or FEEL it when the team rushes like WILD HORSES because His Kingdom or His Church does not come where there is OBSERVABLES performed by people who just KNOW that their songs and sermons are superior to those of the Spirit OF Christ.

IF TOMORROW YOU HEAR THE WIND-INSTRUMENTS SOUNDS OR ANY RHETORIC OR MUSICAL PERFORMANCE YOU ARE SUPPOSED TO BE ABLE TO READ AND HEAR THE SIGNS: In Isaiah 30 the Spirit OF Christ said that the wind, string and percussion instruments are the SOUNDS of God driving His ENEMIES into "hell" where harps and harpists are burried alive.

These are the SAME instruments that Christ warns was brought into the Garden of Eden as the singing and harp playing prostitute.  The Babylon Mother of harlots (Revelation 17) again uses "lusted after fruits" (same as in Amos 8) as speakers, singers and instrument players: all of the Techne or crafts Ministry Staff are called sorcerers and will be or have been Cast Alive into the Lake of fire. The consuming begins with your own lips.

The Marks or degraded character is defined as musical performance
The Beast is defined as "a sudden new style of music or drama."
Plato warned that when this happens the CHANGERS are changing the Laws so you should be on your guard because at first they introduce it only as entertainment so they can boil the other frogs called "quack spirits.

You don't need to believe that or you would follow the reason for the Gifts of Christ in Ephesians to CAST OUT those who boast about stealing your synagogue or in the words of the Christian Standard "How YOU transistioned YOUR church without getting fired.

Rick Atchley with Christian Standard: how you transistioned over the past few years to include instrumental worship (an oxymoron) in MOST services.

When WE made the decision, we knew we would have to explain why
WE were making the decision,  so I led the church through some teaching on why WE were making the change WE made.

And "We used christian bands to teach your youth to leave your movement."

The NACC which also USES Jeff Walling and How HE transistioned HIS church.  Jeff Walling is asked "what does it take to make this change."  Jeff notes that after 15 syears the "leaders" reached this Descision to change Syle and Purpose with lots of difficulty "but do you think I am going to tell these people" meaning HOW we subverted the church.

WHEN THEY WHISPER UNITY YOU KNOW THAT THEY INTEND TO INFILTRATE AND CONFISCATE YOUR "INVESTMENT WITH THE LOURDEE." They say "a spirit" told them to do it and I agree: it's all spelled out in the book they do not want you to hear in the morning from either sermons or songs.

The Thesis of the Abilene Kingdom of the world is that they will preach only "Christ and Him crucified" and ignore the epistles of the apostles which the father of the Stone-Campbell Movement Fallacy says were the divisive writings of divisive writers.  Note the Lucado Pattern below.  Paul and Peter always SILENCES the cunning craftiness or sophistry meaning self-speaking, singing, playing instruments and ACTING as the necessary prelude to SPEAKING that which is written for our learning.  The only way to GUARD against lying prophets spelled Profits Christ warned against is to outlaw seekingn your own pleasure and speaking your own words.  God said that man's imagination is only evil continually and popularity would be a MARK or sign against Jesus said who SPEAK the word which He spoke when the Father "breathed" into him would absolutely get you despised and rejected of men: people who would steal the church house of widows are restrained only by fear.

There was dancing too; fragrant air was wafted through a house full of harping, the streets of the city were filled with sweet steamy odours, ample streams of wine made the whole house carouse. Cymbals clanged, panspipes whiffled about the melodious table, double hoboys were droning, the round of the loud-thrumming drum made the hall ring again with its double bangs, there were castanets rattling over that supper!
        And there in the midst came Maron, heavy with wine, staggering on unsteady feet and moving to and fro as frenzy drove him. He threw his arms over the shoulders of two Satyroi and supported himself between them, then climbed right up from the ground twisting his legs about them. So he was lifted by the dancing feet of the others, with red skin, his whole face emitting ruddy rays and shining between."


Strabo, Geography 10. 3. 13 :

”mentions the hymns sung in honor of Dionysus, both the ancient and the later ones, and then, passing on from these, says,“To perform the prelude in thy honor, great Mother, the whirling of cymbals is at hand, and among them, also, the clanging of castanets, and the torch that blazeth beneath the tawny pine-trees,

”he bears witness to the common relationship between the rites exhibited
        in the worship of Dionysus among the Greeks
        and those in the worship of the Mother of the gods among the Phrygians,
for he makes these rites closely akin to one another. And Euripides does likewise, in his Bacchae, citing the Lydian usages at the same time with those of Phrygia, because of their similarity:“
        But ye who left Mt. Tmolus, fortress of Lydia, revel-band of mine,
        women whom I brought from the land of barbarians as my assistants
        and travelling companions,
        uplift the tambourines native to Phrygian cities, inventions of mine and mother Rhea.
”And again,“happy he who, blest man, initiated in the mystic rites, is pure in his life, . . . who, preserving the righteous orgies [wrath] of the great mother Cybele, and brandishing the thyrsus [shaken reed] on high, and wreathed with ivy, doth worship Dionysus. Come, ye Bacchae, come, ye Bacchae, bringing down Bromius, god the child of god, out of the Phrygian mountains into the broad highways of Greece.

And again, in the following verses he connects the Cretan usages also with the Phrygian:“O thou hiding-bower of the Curetes, and sacred haunts of Crete that gave birth to Zeus, where for me the triple-crested Corybantes in their caverns invented this hide-stretched circlet, and blent its Bacchic revelry with the high-pitched, sweet-sounding breath of Phrygian flutes, and in Rhea's hands placed its resounding noise, to accompany the shouts of the Bacchae, and from Mother Rhea frenzied Satyrs obtained it and joined it to the choral dances of the Trieterides, in whom Dionysus takes delight.

Diagoras was an Athenian, but you punished him for divulging the Athenian mysteries; yet you who read his Phrygian discourses hate us. You possess the commentaries of Leo, and are displeased with our refutations of them; and having in your hands the opinions of Apion concerning the Egyptian gods, you denounce us as most impious.

The tomb of Olympian Zeus is shown among you, (in Crete) though some one says that the Cretans are liars.

LOGOS or Regulative Principle is OPPOSITE to speaking, singing, playing instruments
puerile is a word used by John Calvin repudiating music

Blest in your Dian's guardian smile,
Whose shafts the flying silvans stay,
Come, foot the Lesbian measure, while
The lyre I play:

Sing of Latona's glorious boy,
Sing of night's queen with crescent horn,
Who wings the fleeting months with joy,
And swells the corn.

And happy brides shall say, “'Twas mine,
When years the cyclic season brought,
To chant the festal hymn divine
By Horace taught.”

AS THE ANTITHESIS

Ephesians 2:20 And are built upon the foundation of the apostles and prophets,
        Jesus Christ himself being the chief corner stone;

If you get waged to try to build upon self-speak songs and sermons then you are not a Disciple of Christ commanded to TEACH what He commanded to be taught.

PAUL, a servant of Jesus Christ, called to be an apostle, separated unto the gospel of God, Rom 1:1

(Which he had promised afore by his prophets in the holy scriptures,) Rom 1:2
        Concerning his Son Jesus Christ our Lord, which was
        MADE of the seed of David according to the flesh; Rom 1:3

Holy Scripture does not include the Patternist's Platform from the God-abandoned Levites who performed as soothsayers or sorcerers with loud instruments continued to be used against Jesus "to make the lambs dumb before the slaughter.

And DECLARED to be the Son of God with power,
          according to the spirit of holiness,
          by the resurrection from the dead: Rom 1:4

Contrary to those who BURN THE LETTERS, Paul to whom Christ as Holy Spirit appeared to and let Himself be heard:

Now to him that is of power to stablish you
        according to my gospel,
        and the
preaching of Jesus Christ,
        according to the revelation of the mystery,
        which was kept secret since the world began, 1 Cor 16:25


If you want to MOCK those defined as inspired and upon which historic Apostolic churches have a reason to exist, that's ok:  Jesus said He doesn't pray for the WORLD or COSMOS and the Harris-NACC performing og COSMIC WORSHIP.

Then in the name of missed Ethics101aaa why GANG UP in the attempt to exercise "Prophetic Roles to train advanced degrees (about 212o) to be CHANELLERS to go out and FACILITATE (manipulate) the demise of the old Conservative Churches of Christ.  It is a provable fact that NO ONE can find any rational for the MUSIC word in the Qahal, synagogue, ekklesia or Church of Christ (the Rock) in the wilderness.  Therefore, the lifted list of mere mentions of an instrument to mean that GOD COMMANDED them to add Instrumental Praise (whatever that be) are lying ABOUT God and TO God.  If they obeyed the command to teach that which has been taught they would not have to "boil the frogs" for more than a decade before that "spirit" made you leap. Furthermore, in most cases the "spirit" doesn't mention INSTRUMENTS until the NEW PROPERTY has been secured and usually RENAMED to take Christ off the confession.

The Spirit OF (of is a preposition) Christ in the prophets warns about the LYING PEN OF THE SCRIBES and Jesus in person called the SCRIBES and Pharisees, hypocrites.  The quote from Ezekiel 33 names speakers, singers, instrument players and any "audience" to pay their ungodly wage.

If you SELF-SPEAK claiming to speak for a god the civil Greeks named you a Prostitute. Selling any body part in the name of God is prostitution.  Paul called it CORRUPTING the Word which is "selling learning at retail" which word also means ADULTERY.  The texts speak of rhetoricians wandering around selling their own doctrines to keep from having to work.  They were often the left-over sacrificial musicians which were always called PARASITES because Christ said that God did not command any of the Patternist's Platform.

Heb. 1:1 God, who at sundry times and in divers manners
        spake in time past unto the fathers by the prophets,
Heb. 1:2 Hath in these last days spoken unto us by his Son,
        whom he hath appointed heir of all things,
        by whom also he made the worlds; ageS
Heb. 1:3 Who being the brightness of his glory,
        and the express image of his person,
        and upholding all things by the WORD of his power,
        when he had by himself purged our sins,
        sat down on the right hand of the Majesty on high;

The LOGOS is the Regulative Principle or Governing Principle.  The Patternist's Platform ridicules the notion that God gets the right to Command, example or remotely infer for any godly person who is a DISCIPLE and not a CEREMONIAL LEGALISTS.

logos  Word or Wisdom of God, personified as his agent in creation and world-government, reason, law exhibited in the world-proces. of regulative and formative forces, derived from the intelligible and operative in the sensible universe. generative principle in organisms, inward debate of the soul, regulative and formative forces, derived from the intelligible and operative in the sensible universe,

Here is a list of all of the uses of LOGOS and any kind of self-speak, poetry, music or drama is EXCLUDED.

The one-piece pattern Christ ordained in the wilderness was to REST (from religionists) READ and REHEARSE the Word (only).  That means SPEAK or READ that which is written and MEDITATE in the heart since Psallo has never and can never mean "musical melody" which belongs to the 19th century.  The Lord's Supper in utter silence to preach the death of Jesus and EXAMINE SELF, had the same TEACHING role of A Church of Christ.  A Church is a School of Christ agreed the Campbells and worship is reading and musing the Word: that's the pattern Paul commanded to Timothy. The School of Christ has a top-down flow of information.  If your institution does more than that it has been taken captive by people who PEDDLE THE WORD which by Paul and civli Greeks is called prostitution.

Max Lucado explaining how to write "beyond the sacred pages." "Yet, Paul wrote, not because of heavenly action, but because of congregational angst.  Titus needed direction, the Ephesians needed assurance.  Timothy struggled, the Corinthians squabbled and the Galatians waffled.  So Paul wrote to them.
Paul reported that Jesus of Nazareth as Holy Spirit both appeared to him and let him hear His voice. Jesus promised to APPEAR to Paul to guide him into all truth. If you don't believe it then save your souls and stop trafficking.

Since one must be a witness of the resurrected Jesus to be an apostle we assume that Max has had such a vision which told him to impose instrumental idolatry and remove Christ from his public confession.  Peter identified Paul's writings as SCRIPTURE.  If one gets rich and famous as a preacher Paul would want him to GO by the command of Jesus and teach what Jesus commanded too be taught.
  The Texas wrecking crew denies that the epistles are more than the divisive writings to divided churches. 

Max Lucado: "How he made music with his words. He turned epistles into concert hall sheet music.  “Though I speak with the tongues of men and angels, but have not love, I have become as sounding brass or clanging cymbal.”  (1 Cor. 13:1) It’s as if he dipped his pen in honey. He could sound like a poet in the seventh heaven.

Scripture and the Classics would MARK Paul as gender-confused: when you move from SPEAK or SAY to SING or Play recorded history marks that as both effeminancy and the CAUSE of rampant Effeminance. A deceased preacher for the Christian Church spelled it out clearly. And the Praise Team was the sign form young and old to decide NOT to pay for the Free Water of the Word. See the Spirit OF Christ command us NOT to pay for the Word and equate His Word to SPIRIT.

Christ also defined those who Smite and Pluck Him which parses to making MUSIC which recorded history knows "creates spiritual anxiety through religious rituals" says Jesus.

No, this was not music but ANTI-music: real men didn't do music unless they were drunk or gender confused says recorded history.  See below which is a clear statement of PROSE.

To the law and to the testimony:
        if they speak not according to this word,
        it is because there is no light in them. Isa 8:20

Aristototle Rh. 3.6: 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..

"Philodemos 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. (Paul called it mad or insane)

He found it significant that, on the whole, only women and effeminate men fell into this folly."

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.

Abaddon or Apollyon is the Leader of the Muses!

Max Lucado: "He could also sound like a pastor on Monday morning.  Tired, frustrated.  Beginning sentences and not finishing them. Starting a second thought before he finished the first.  Throwing out ideas in lumps instead of lyrics. [real men don't do lyrics reports history]  But that was ok.  He wasn’t writing the Bible.  He was writing to Philemon.  He wasn’t crafting epistles; he was solving problems.  Paul didn’t write for the ages; he wrote for the churches.  He wrote for souls.

Paul always used IRONY to fool the foolish and to ridicule them.  Peter called Paul's writings SCRIPTURE and Paul wrote circular letters.  Consistent with the command to PREACH the Word by READING the Word Paul commanded that the letters be READ in all of the churches. If that is what preachers believe then they may not have any choice when Jesus visits to remove the LAMPS (Revelation 18) but to remove CHRIST from their public confession

Max Lucado: And we’ve written:  articles, blogs, books, stories. Not like Luke, Paul, and John.  But not unlike them, either.

Luke recorded the accounts of eye-witnesses and travelled with Paul. Luke's history stands up against TRUE HISTORY and he probably never broke a sweat when recording the facts.

The difference is that he REPUDIATED all of the witchcraft defined by ALL of the "music" terms and names of instruments. I am quite certain that he followed the example and command of Paul that "if he will not work neither shall he eate." A am quite certain that being a Christian he understood that "nothing Christian is for sale and nothing for sale is Christian."

Max Lucado:  We’ve had our moments of inspiration.  Sandwiched between hours of perspiration, for sure.  But we’ve had our moments—mystical moments of pounding heart and pounding keyboard. We’ve felt the wind behind our backs and sensed a holy hand guiding ours.  We, like our Creator, have beheld our creations and declared, “It’s good.”  (Or, at least, “It’s not so bad.”)  And we have asked:  Is this our call?  Our assignment?  To use words to shape souls?

AND RICK ATCHLEY FOLLOWED THE LEADER

The VISION for imposing instruments were not inspired since they were from the WHITE PAPER Farmer's branch also sent to me.  Chris Seidman is not a prophet and it is clear that the White Paper was supplied by the NACC using the ploy of "unity" but stalking out a few who could be duped.

Inspiration is God Breathed: the Spirit OF God is the BREATH of God (to fool the clergy): when God BREATHED then men ARTICULATED that breath Without Metron or meter.  Jesus had no words on His own so we suppose that the Abilene Kingdom presumes to be a Greater-Than Moses or Jesus for THEIR generation (Blackaby, Shelly)

The Beastia (Latin) or Serpo in the garden of Eden is defined as speaking by the spirit of Abaddon (the God-abandoned) Levites sorcery with instruments.  So, be careful whose "spirit" you are trusting. If NONE of the Epistles are to be trusted the we recommend that you CUT OFF the unlawful and ungodly funds they are extorting from you and sleep in.  Jim Hackney is setting up a late nite instrumental service so you can SLEEP IN.

The Spirit OF Christ called that the Lucifer Pride: as the king (queen) of Tyre Christ called him "the singing and harp playing prostitute in the garden of Eden." As king (queen) of Babylon the Lucifer Patternist would be cast into hell with his still-living harpists and harps buried alive.  The Serpent is a "musical enchanter(ess) and as Serpent-Beast he deceives through crooked (skolions) songs while drunk on pride or ignorance history notes.

IT WOULD NOT BE IN CHARACTER FOR PAUL TO WAX LYRICAL

This was not Paul waxing Lyrical but Paul's stiff-armed irony DENOUNCING those who denounce the LOGOS (Regulative Principle) and distill dew with an agenda:

1Corinthians 13:1 Though I speak with the tongues
        of men and of angels,               (condemned)
        and have not charity, (Grace)   (condemned)
        I am become as sounding brass, or a tinkling cymbal.

"It may help us to understand that the Greek word lelein refers primarily to utterance rather than to meaningful conversation. The term is used repeatedly in chapter 14 to describe speaking in tongues. Phrynichus, the ancient dictionarian, defined the term as 'to talk nonsense'.
        The word is used of gossip, prattling, babbling, animal sounds, and musical instruments. During the classical period, it usually was employed in a contemptuous sense. Debrunner, writing in the Kittle-Friedrich Theological Dictionary of the New Testament, states 'Lalein can also be used quite objectively of speech when there is reference to sound rather than than meaning. 'To what kind of utterance can St. Paul refer? There were many types of vocalization in ecstatic rites. [strong delusions to those who say that Paul lied but they are inspired]
        They have been heard to utter (different voices of equal strength, or with great diversity and inequality) in tones that alternated with silence; and again in other cases harmonious crescendo or dimenuendo of tone, and in still other cases other kinds of utterance. (Iamblichus, On the Mysteries, III, 4-6)

Outlawed by LOGOS: Modulatio. In partic., a rhythmical measure, modulation; hence, singing and playing, melody, in poetry and music, Quint. 9, 4, 139: modulatione produci aut corripi (verba), id. 9, 4, 89 : modulatio pedum, id. 1, 6, 2 : scenica, id. 11, 3, 57: vocis, melody, id. 11, 3, 59 : musica, Aus. Ep. 25, 13 .

Clement of Alexandria: "After having paid reverence to the discourse about God, they leave within [at church] what they have heard. And outside they foolishly amuse themselves with impious playing, and amatory quavering (feminine vibrato), occupied with flute-playing, and dancing, and intoxication, and all kinds of trash.

Paul said don't get fluted down with wine but SPEAK. In Reading 101 and the Greek world SPEAK (logos type) is the OPPOSITE of rhetoric, singing, playing, acting or dancing which INHERES in the music concept.

IT MAY BE BLASPHEMY TO CLAIM THAT THE SPIRIT OF CHRIST AND PAUL WERE TOO IGNORANT TO KNOW THAT WHEN YOU WANT TO (1) PLAY AND (2) AND INSTRUMENT YOU SAY SO OR LIKE SIMPLE SIMON USE DEDICATED COMPOUND WORDS.

Jonathan Storment Tradition: Guards or Gardening  Jonathan Storment parrots Douglas A. Foster who claims that starving and ignorant Church of Christ members (existed before either Campbell or Stone in Tennessee) rejected Instrumental noise ONLY because they were upset over the spendthrifts in the North (So was Christ in Amos).  They had NO other reason but tradition. After the civil war they forgot WHY they rejected instruments along with the Bible and recorded history and are now just divisive and evil.  This is all fabricated and twists both Scripture, Recorded History and the Bible Literacy of Churches of Christ.  It also proves that you can get to be a Phd without having read the Bible for content.  Calling NOT going along with having your property infiltrated and diverted into a "theater for holy entertainment" just a bad TRADITION which THEY intend to stop is, because it intends to hurt and sow massive discord, a Lie: and liars are grouped with DOGS and SORCERERS (speakers, singers, instrument players) in Revelation which WILL BE or are Cast alive into the Lake of Fire.  Christ gave us the PROPHETIC TYPE in Isaiah 30 along with HIS pattern for the future REST (from religion) both exclusively and inclusively.

THE ABILENE BAND PROMOTES ALL CLAIMANTS TO BEING CHRISTIAN AND THEREFORE CAN HAVE NO STANDARDS.   Jonathan Storment's credo may be based on a reading problem:

STORMENT AFFIRMS:
"Storment is a flag bearer against the former idea of faith practiced  within the boundaries of one’s own body and denomination. He derives  this belief from John 17, Jesus’ last words to his disciples and  Storment’s go-to verse in answering how church bodies should interact  with each other.

Jonathan  Storment and several other Abilene preachers make up a board called One Kingdom, where the ministers congregate, collaborate and brainstorm how to better thread their congregations to partner with each other.

Pastor Storment is holy-employed to a career extending well past the 8-5, making his mission as Highland’s head preaching honcho to break denomination binds and instead demonstrate faith.

Backing his belief, Storment quotes David McQueen, a fellow Abilene minister at Beltway Park Church, whom he considers a ‘close friend.’

“David has done a really great job at Beltway, constantly saying, ‘How many churches are there in Abilene? One church.’
That's what Churches of Christ have warned about for several decades.  People trained as rhetoricians, singers, instrument players (hypocrites says Jesus and universal history), actors, buffoons and with ANTI-Church of Christ mindset do as boasted "infiltrate and divert your school of the word and happy church family into A Theater for Holy Entertainment."  People trained in theology with ANTI-Church of Christ agendas missed out on Bible 101aaa. 
The ANTI-Christian Thesis among the masses of the WORLD (Kosmos) for whom Jesus does not pray.
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:

Observātiō ōnis, observo, a watching, observance, investigation: observationes animadvertebant, your searches for evidence: siderum.— Circumspection, care, exactness: summa in bello movendo.

Religious observations are carefully crafted to take control of all of one's attention. That is the worship concept with is to be directed only to God.

Quint. Inst. 10 1.16 But the advantages conferred by reading and listening are not identical. The speaker stimulates us by the animation of his delivery, and kindles the imagination, not by presenting us with an elaborate [p. 13] picture, but by bringing us into actual touch with the things themselves. Then all is life and movement, and we receive the new-born offspring of his imagination with enthusiastic approval. We are moved not merely by the actual issue of the trial, but by all that the orator himself has at stake.

Quint. Inst. 10 1.17 Moreover his voice, the grace of his gestures, the adaptation of his delivery (which is of supreme importance in oratory), and, in a word, all his excellences in combination, have their educative effect.

In reading, on the other hand, the critical faculty is a surer guide, inasmuch as the listener's judgment is often swept away by his preference for a particular speaker, or by the applause of an enthusiastic audience.

It probably began AGAIN just after the NACC was finally SECTARIANED from the Disciples of Christ in 1971.  Leroy Garrett boasts about infiltrating campuses as a "campus minister" selling the NACC in the 1960s.

Leroy Garrett invented the Stone-Campbell Movement which moved out of his own mind.  What became Churches of Christ were never "unioned" with the Disciples of Christ at any time in history. This is the absolute LIE which is used as psychological violence to claim that Churches of Christ in 1906 sected out of the NACC which did not begin to be until 1927.  This Violent Ploy is that the Christians always worshipped with instruments until the Jews cast them out of the use of the synagogues.  The false claim is that the Church REMOVED instruments because they did not want to be like the pagans or PAPISTS

When the Pope called for celebrating the Y2K Jubillee the prophecy was that ALL of the Daughter Churches (Campuses) would return to the Mother Church Rubel Shelly and a small band of Abileners began the Nashville Jubilee. The hidden agenda was to spend a fortune in bringing all of the "preachers" back to Athens of the South built on seven hills to RESTRUCTURE everyone as thee instrumentalists did a century ago. Rubel Shelly used the Aztec Jubilee which "burned down all of the old houses, let a person have all of the girls and instrumental music he wanted for a year: they cut out his heart, ate it, RELIT THE FIRES, and carried the New Fire to the REBUILT houses

THE PASSOVER PLOT A PROPHETIC TYPE FOR THE END TIMES
Rick Atchley, Mike Cope working with the NACC
Back in the 80’s you could go to any major city, especially in the South, and you could find a progressive Church of Christ — and if they would preach grace, and if they would put words on a screen, and if they would let divorced people place membership, they would grow.

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!
Charles Spurgeon speaking of clergy taking a wage for people he did not agree with just to keep from an honest job was not able to find a word suitable to define them.  Only in religionism can one do it and be honored.

You will notice that Grace is to bring salvation.  In spite of them telling us that they can LEAD us into the presence of God (trumping Jesus), we know that they DO NOT bring salvation.

Now, GRACE like WORD or SPIRIT are personified: Grace is not a singing sister but a SPEAKING brother. That guards against the charismatic, orge or pleasuring Paul outlawed in the synagogue.

This Grace TEACHES.  This word means "to train up a child, educate, instruct, discipline."  The Abilene Kingdoom will never be caught teaching the Epistles as taught as the ROLE of any elder APT to teach rather than APT to make away with your School of the Word (only)

Singing as an ACT (legal) was not imposed until the year 373 in order to sing the MUSICIANS composition: this split the east church from the west.  Simple, Simon! God did not provide ANY of the commanded TEXTBOOK set to meter which would have made him a MOTHER GODDESS.  Music from MYSTERY means "to make the lambs dumb before the slaughter" and the young men's screams silenced by the loud music as they were being INITIATED into the gay brotherhood.
While most people had discounted Max Lucado long before he got a vision to add instruments and remove CHRIST from the public confession, his vision came from Chris Seidman followed more aggressively by Rick Atchley. 

You can see the House that Fiction Bought Here.

JUBILEE COLLAPSED because its PURPOSE was to Do an End-run around the older members and work on the YOUTH and because Max Lucado  was imported to REMOVE the Water from Baptism

Max Lucado says that Baptism is just our PLEDGE to be good boys: one wonders what it is that the ABILENE KINGDOM has to put in pledge. 
        JESUS DENIES: Faith means to COMPLY and be BAPTIZED to be SAVED.Apistos or "believeth not say" I DO NOT HAVE to be baptized: marks one as a TRAITOR of the World and not a Lost Spirit NOT OF this World.        
            PETER DENIES: He said that BAPTISM SAVES US.  That is where we call on the NAME of Jesus Christ and REQUEST A holy spirit or A holy spirit or A good conscience, consciousness or a co-perception of the Word.
BUT JESUS DENIES  but, hey, Jesus just made a rough sketch and the Abilene ONE KINGDOM tells it THEIR  way. Those who are strongly deluded or unconverted or Baptized or washed with water INTO the Word or into the School of Christ are NOT those Jesus came to seek and save and translate their spirits into a heavenly kingdom and their bodies into the School of Christ which is defined as an UMBRELLA to protect the lambs from those blowing the winds of change looking for lambs to devour.

Jesus was made Lord and Christ to teach the LOGOS or Regulativve Principle.  The pattern was to send out messengers (kerusso, presbyters) as HERALDS.  They published the secret message and then moved on throwing out their nets.  Those OF FAITH or OF TRUTH are Lost Spirits or pilgrims and sojourners in the world. In defining the TRUE REST in Isaiah 8 Christ said that if they DO NOT TEACH THE WORD it is because THERE IS NO LIGHT IN THEM.
John 17:2 As thou hast given him power over all flesh,
        that he should give eternal life to as many as thou hast given him.
John 17:3 And this is life eternal, that they
        might know thee the only true God,         [One Theos]
        and Jesus Christ, whom thou hast sent.  [One Kurios]


Polytheists claim that The Holy Spirit PERSON (people) told them to IMPOSE on HIS church what God ABANDONED Israel to because of musical idolatry of the alway-pagan trinities. That's logical because Jesus said that THE KINGDOM DOES NOT COME WITH OBSERVATION which means that the Kingdom and Worship is within the tiny flock and the Kingdom does not come with religious observations or to the ONE KINGDOM  promoted by the Abilene Plot.

And only ONE Paraklete or Comforter:

Acts 2:36 Therefore let all the house of Israel know assuredly,
        that God hath made that same Jesus, whom ye have crucified,
        both Lord and Christ.

Anyone who Grasps that God's ONLY Lord and Ruler of the Church of Christ or the Kingdom over which Jesus is the only Ruler, Teacher and supplier of the LOGOS. It is a lie: Jesus never suggested UNITY with those who do not fall on their face when Jesus Commands,  ONLY those who have been converted or baptized (2 Corinthiahs 3) can HEAR the LOGOS when it is PREACHED by being READ nor can they read BLACK text on BROWN paper.

Acts 2:37 Now when they heard this,
       
Only those For Whom Jesus was to seek and save can HEAR the Word.

        and were made partakers of the Holy Ghost,
Hebrews 6:5 And have tasted the good WORD of God,  [spoken LOGOS]
        and the powers of the world to come,
Hebrews 6:6 If they shall fall away,
         to renew them again unto repentance;
        seeing they crucify to themselves the Son of God afresh,
        and put him to an open shame.

The Abilene ONE KINGDOM boasts that it is ANTI-Regulative Principle which means that they ANTI the Word of Christ.  That's why Jonathan doesn't do Bible-Speak and Rick Atchley richly apparelled DEBATES with Three Empty Chairs.
        and said unto Peter and to the rest of the apostles,
        Men and brethren, what shall we do?  poieō actively DO something


Why NOTHING now that you must BELIEVE then you can be IN THE KINGDOM along with the rest of those who tells Christ in the prophets, the example and command of Jesus and the commands of the apostles LIARS.

What they MUST do to obey the Prophetic Type by Christ in Isaiah 1 and Malachi is to REPENT and BE BAPTIZED

Acts 2:38 Then Peter said unto them, Repent,
        and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins,
        and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost.


The gift is A holy spirit or the Remission of Sins but NOT until you have repented and been baptized.

The promise is that OUR unholy spirit will be cleansed and made into A holy spirit. The same Peter in 1 Peter 3 says that BAPTISM SAVES US because that is how we CALL on the name of the Lord to REQUEST that He gives us A good conscience, consciousness or a co-perception.  In 2 Corinthains 3 Paul says in my words you will be able to HEAR the WORD or READ the Word in BLACK text on BROWN paper. When that happens we can read Paul to say that the LORD IS THAT SPIRIT.

ho Petros ephē pros autous: Metanoēsate, kai baptisthētō hekastos humōn eis aphesin hamartiōn

Baptism is REQUIRED to be Saved or Added to the Church by Christ IN ORDER THAT you might become a Son of God.

Acts 26:17 Delivering thee from the people, and from the Gentiles, unto whom now I send thee,
Acts 26:18 To open their eyes,
        and to turn them from darkness to light,
        and from the power of Satan unto God,
        that they may receive forgiveness of sins,
        and inheritance among them which
        are sanctified by faith that is in me.

Sanctified means one has A holy spirit
Acts 3:18 But those things, which God before had shewed by the mouth of all his prophets, that Christ should suffer, he hath so fulfilled.
Acts 3:19 Repent ye therefore,
    and be converted,
    that your sins may be blotted out,
when the times of refreshing shall come from the presence of the Lord;

THE ABILENE BONDERS WITH THE WORLD'S RELIGIONS DENY THE CORE OF GOD'S INSTRUMENTAL MEANS FOR TESTING LOST SPIRITS IN THE WORLD BUT NOT OF THE WORLD.
Acts 2:39 For the promise is unto you, and to your children, and to all that are afar off,
        even as many as the Lord our God shall call. 

If you are a remnant Jew or a Gentile accepted by God because you WORK Righteous Deeds and Love God as proof that you are a Lost Spirit NOT OF this world then you WILL be baptized. If you ENDORSE those who DENY that then you are in the KINGDOM OF THE WORLD.

Acts 2:41 Then they that gladly received his word were baptized:
        and the same day there were added unto them about three thousand souls


You will NOT be added to the Church of Christ BY Christ if you deny the INSTRUMENTAL MEANS He used to separate the SHEEP from the GOATS.  You entertain GOATS says Charles Spurgeon but you feed LAMBS beside still waters.
Jesus didn't even pray for the world (Cosmic Worship) and He said that God HIDES from the wise or SOPHISTS: a sophist is a speaker, singer, instrument player, actor: selling his body parts is proof of corrupting the LOGOS
John 17:13 And now come I to thee; and these things I speak IN the WORLD,
        that they might have my joy fulfilled in themselves.
John 17:14 I have given them thy WORD;
        and the world hath hated them,  [Those OF the World will be LOVED of the World]
        because they are NOT of the world,
        even as I am not OF the world.

You really can't blame those who have a ROLE and a rich unauthorized DOLE in cash and sitting in the high chairs for not wanting to tippy toe out into the World teaching what Jesus commanded to be taught because they KNOW that they are the sensitive types.

John 17:15 I pray not that thou shouldest take them out of the world,
        but that thou shouldest KEEP them from the evil.

Jonathan Storment and Douglas A. Foster use the terror plot against those who GUARD their church house and flock from being broken in and stolen.  Not to worry: of the FEW who are the elect or called OUT of the World, God will protect them.  So, the stolen sheep in the stolen church houses--as at Sand Creek--will not be seduced. The Success Rate of the massive effort to RESTRUCTURE has had such little effect that the PLOTTERS should be ashamed rather than parade themselves before the unheeding faithful.

If the fingers are thus joined, clasping one or both knees, or if the ham of one leg is first put upon the knee of the other, and then changed about, the omen is of still worse signification... They have given a similar prohibition also with reference to sacrifices and the offering of public vows;

"Asherah (symbolized by errect poles with fertility symbols pouring out the top): She is the Queen of Heaven, in other languages and ages identified as Ashtoreth, Athirat, Astarte, and Ishtar. Yahweh, the Hebrew God elevated to become the sole deity , was Her consort. Her "male" priestesses were known as kelabim, the faithful "dogs" of the Goddess, "who practiced divinatory arts, danced in processions, and served as hierodules, qedeshim, in the company of other priestesses. Elements of the goddess worship were largely erased in a cultural purge c. 630 BCE by King Yosiah, at the behest of Yahweh's priests, who required supremacy.

"I would argue that in Greek tragedy the cross-dressed actor was crucial, a sign of the conventional nature of the drama. Male playing female is inevitably distanced from the role and makes it clear that the role of the woman is an idealization, not a realization.

In addition the male playing female indicates a possible relevance of the form to dionysus, a god associated with masks and characterized by softness, woman's curls and dress (Bacchae) and worshipped with transvestite ceremonies at the Oschophoria (Seaford; Segal 1982: 10-20, 158- 68, 214).

Truth or Aletheia is OPPOSITE to being FALSE or any thing you do as SHOW
Only the LOGOS  LOGOS is defined as the REGULATIVE PRINCIPLE: it is OPPOSITE to preachers jokes or personal experiences, poetry, music, acting or anything but SPEAK which does not mean SING
YOU CANNOT SANCTIFY OR MAKE A PERSON'S SPIRIT INTO A HOLY SPIRIT BY ANY ACTS OF HYPOCRITES: RHETORIC, SINGING, PLAYING, ACTING to bring on, says the Vineyard lady and Plato a Climactic Experience with the Spirit.

John 17:20 Neither pray I for these alone,
        but for them also which shall believe on me through their word; [LOGOS]

You cannot be ONE with people who define you as a CULT if you do not believe that you can be saved by FAITH ONLY which proves one an Apistos or a TRAITOR thus identified as OF THE WORLD which is the realm of Satan: Jesus said that you can identify the SONS OF THE DEVIL because they SPEAK ON THEIR OWN.

John 17:21 That they all may be one;
        AS thou, Father, art in me, and I in thee,
        that they also may be one in us:
        that the world may believe that thou hast sent me.
John 17:22 And the glory which thou gavest me I have given them;
        that they may be one, even as we are one:

Jesus never spoke on His own: what the Father breathed (spirit) into Him He Spoke.  There can be no unity when people decide that they do not want to speak the LOGOS (Regulative Principle) because they do not want to suffer.
ITS A DANGEROUS OUTRAGE:  Many or most will be called (invited) but FEW will be chosen because they diligently SEEK god.

The ABILENE band of brothers are based on being buddies in the WORLD: they know that if they join in all the boyhood games the other kids will not HATE them.  However, the ONE BODY will be hated and despised by those who do NOT gladly receive the Secret Message and are Baptized IN ORDER to the remission of sins. 

Douglas A. Foster How Instrumental Music in Worship became a Red-Flag Issue

Either from lack of reading the Bible and church history, Foster wants you to believe that the Christians worshipped with the Jews, and apparently the same way, until the Jews kicked them out of the Synagogue. The Christians got peeved and decided to REMOVE instruments from their worship.  He goes on to intimate that Justin Martyr says that instruments were removed. This is all utterly false: Christ the Rock defined the only spiritual assembly still being taught the Book of The Covenanant of Grace.  This excluded "vocal or instrumental rejoicing including elevated form of self-speak or rhetoric." That is because the Purpose Driven Church was A school of the Word.  The first instrument imposed in a Jewish Synagogue was in 1815 by a liberal Rabbi.  Just like the Sand Creek attack, the judge told the Rabbi that he would have to buy his own synagogue: stealing church houses of widows is not a nice thing.

Therefore, this is the most vile, disgusting and dishonest attack upon people since the identical attack, same time a century ago. 

WOMEN IN WORSHIP DIVERSION.

The Church of Christ was called A school of Christ and not a worship center: pagan worship demands speakers, singers, players and maybe someone to sacrifice: Anathema means someone or some one to sacrifice: often it was the Capella or she-goat whatever the sex.

Paul wants everyone to pray that their be peace and SILENCE: the men not bringing on wrath or ORGY (singing, playing, clapping) and the women NOT teaching which implies self-referenced teaching, is so that Everyone be saved and come to a knowledge of the Truth.  Music derived from mystery means and intends to "make the lambs  dumb before the slaughter" or to be mollested spiritually was performed by the Levites and it was called SORCERY and all religious musicians were called PARASITES.

TEACHING DENIED: John T. Willis Women and Instruments in "worship."

The instrumentalists waved the RED FLAG when they ignored the Bible. church history and laws against discord by saying that, in one case, "a" spirit told me that God commands instrumental praise. When people tamper with the word and hear SPIRITS we have a right to be legalistic and refuse to drink the KoolAid.  Foster claims that Instruments were REMOVED from Christian worship because people hated the JEWS or they hated the POPE.

It is easy to see that he has neither read the Bible beyond 'theology' and misrepresents all recorded history before the Disciples invented the Psallo Word in 1887.   All of these people deny that the Word of God is any more than a sketch and they are ordained as the architects to draw THEIR pattern which has about 3 more pieces than the old patternists.

Rick Atchley Musically Mocking Jesus to the Foot of the Old Rugged Cross

Rick Atchley USING the Law of Silence
The Disciples of Christ invented the Law of Silence that where God has been silent, they can decide what to do and that becomes the Law of Christ.  See The Disciples Affirmation.

Robert Ballard in The Case for Instrumental music follows the late 1800's attack against those who had never in recorded history thought of musical performers being a part of what Christ and the Campbells called A School of Christ: We are washed with water INTO the Word or into the School of Christ. A disciple does not debunk the Spirit OF Christ in the prophets and apostles and play buffoon to convince people to follow his "spirit."

Robert Ballard and the NACC: and to refuse to permit that which God Himself has (P93) SAID TO USE. To forbid their use, where God has  SAID TO USE THEM, as in Eph. 5:19 and Col. 3:16 is flagrant sin (Rev 22:18:19)

Robert has the same "sheep skin" which does not allow people to read BLACK text on BROWN Paper: that means strong delusions to anyone who would merchandise anything beyond PREACHING by READING the Word for Comfort and Doctrine.  Sorry about all of the STAFF STIFFS but they have to be robbers to burden lade working people.

1. COMMAND: Speak or the LOGOS Words is opposite to rhetoric, singing, playing, acting which Jesus quoting Ezekiel 33 names as HYPOCRITES.
2. ODE and PSALLO in the place of the heart, spirit or mind.  In 1 Corinthians 14 this means Keep It
Silent Silly.

The command is to SPEAK
-lexis , eōs, h(, (legō B) A. speech, OPPOSITE. ōdē, Pl.Lg.816d; l. ē praxis speech or action, Id.R.396c; ho tropos tēs l. ib.400d; ta lexei dēloumena orders given by word of mouth,

ōdē is the OPPOSITE of the LOGOS words

The DRIVING PURPOSE is to Teach and Comfort WITH the Word of Christ in the Prophets and Apostles.
We adults know that there can be NO LEARNING if the children clap and play and mock the teacher.

Paul silenced both men and women so that "everyone might be saved and come to a knowledge of The Truth." Why would anyone object to that UNLESS they believe that men and women on the Staff reveal truth as claimed. The REASON which is missed by those boasting of USING women:

1Timothy 2:5 For there is one God,
        and one mediator between God and men,
        the man Christ Jesus;
1Timothy 2:6 Who gave himself a ransom for all,
        to be testified in due time.  [The testimony of Christ is the Spirit of Prophecy]
1Timothy 2:7 Whereunto I am ordained a preacher, and an apostle,
        (I speak the truth in Christ, and lie not;) a teacher of the Gentiles in faith and verity.
SCRIPTURE AFFIRMS:
Jesus identifying Himself as "a different in some respects Comforter, Intercessor, Paraklete
John says that the NAME of the Paraklete is Jesus Christ the Righteous

THE DOCTORS OF THE LAW DENY (who take away the key to knowledge) DENIES.

Rick thinks that the olden Bible was a "rough drawing" and not a BLUEPRINT which gives preachers the authority to deny that the Man Jesus of Nazareth is the ONE mediator.  No! the actors and musicians cannot lead you into the presence of God: that would be a sign of people standing in the holy places CLAIMING the role of God.

If Rick finds any more reasons for rejecting the Bible for which he feeds himself let me know. Rick and Mike Cope and others from ACU are working actively with the NACC to "use music to teach your youth to leave our movement." The COSMIC worship produced by ACU-NACC is "just in time."  Jesus said that He does not pray for the world or COSMOS which defines the old-new style of worship.  And He said that God HIDES from the wise or Sophists meaning self-speakers, singers, players or actors now flooding the pulpits.

Rick Atchley followed closely behind Chris Seidman whose "white paper" Max Lucado claimed was a VISION to remove Christ from the public confession and add instruments.  The NACC was happy to supply David Faust flying the "unity flag" to come to Abilene and convince all of the "scholars."  His list of authority was good enough to fool many people many times rests squarely on the Jacob-Cursed and God-Abandoned Levites. God's command to the Levites because they jumped at the right to execute 3,000 of the brethren because of instrumental idolatry was to STAND IN RANKS under the King and Commanders of the Army.  God never commanded king, kingdom, sacrificial system, animal slaughter, burnt goats or the Levites as "musical worship ministers": they prophesied or performed as soothsayers or sorcerers using instrumental noise (not called music) as exorcism and to warn any godly person that if they came near or into any of the set-aside walls and houses they were to be EXECUTED.

ALL of the "proof texts" are out of context and the story line in fact REPUDIATES the instrumental sounds as the MARK of those who HAD rejected the Words of the WORD: In Isaiah 30 Christ says that these sights and sounds are marks of God driving His enemies into "hell."  He uses the Jerusalem worship of Molech while the infants were burnt offerings and the Levites "made the mothers dumb before the slaughter."

            Moloch.Trumpets.Drums.Original.gif

All of the religious teknokrats (Ministery Leaders female) including speakers, singers and instrument players in Revelation 18 are called SORCERERS and John said that the LAMPS (7 spirits of Christ in Isaiah 11) have been removed and the merchandisers will be Cast Alive into the Lake of Fire.

Rick Atchley speaking only for those who see "godliness as a means of financial gain" or occupation says of the two sides of the turff

"One side seeing the Bible as a blueprint,
while the other side sees the Bible as preliminary drawings each congregation must see best how to replicate the function (we might say generic authority) of the New Testament church without being concerned about the forms (we might say specific authority).

For instance, the command is ALWAYS to read or speak the LOGOS (Regulative Principle) words.  Logos is the Opposite of rhetoric, singing, playing, humming, clapping or body gyrating in the costly remodeled building. But, Rick and the small band of Purpose Driven theologians (not Bible students) says that does not apply to HIS congregation even if it was driven to a boasted 6400 owners to about 3500 discorded and offended.  There is not a single verse or partial verse that anyone can use favorably of instrumental sounds when the flow of information is from Christ to us without lying.  Amos and Jesus used the WOE words and He is my patternist.

Rick Atchley, reading off the NACC list of texts says that God COMMANDED instrumental praise during Hezekiah's plague stopping ceremony in 2 Chronicles 29: this is the ONLY place where they think there is a COMMAND.  However, none of those infiltrating and diverting churches understand the story line:

It was because of the Levites execution of 3,000 of their brethren because of instrumental idolatry at Mount Sinai that God commanded that in the future they stand in ranks to warn any godly person who came near any of their so-called "holy things" or into any "holy place" was to be executed.

Hezekiah as King who commanded the warrior Levites had them stand in ranks with their instruments during all of the sacrifices for atonement.  However, when they began to burn the goats for defected Israel they actually played or made NOISE By the Command of David. 

The Spirit OF Christ in Isaiah 1 and Jeremiah 7 make it perfectly clear that God had NOT COMMANDED animal slaughter or burnt goats: these were part of the Canaanite Astrial worship to which God abandoned the Civil-Military-Clergy complex because of Instrumental Idolatry.

However, Rick Atchley, Mike Cope working with the NACC has the agenda to work with young preachers and deprogram them away from the conservative churches.

Rick Atchley: The era of the progressive Church of Christ is over.

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!

"Christian Band" is an oxymoron and probably blasphemy by promoting what Christ denounced.  As with the Sand Creek event the instrumentalists wanted the new red brick building because, HEY! that's cheaper than leaving in peace and buying your own.

That is proof that all musical terms and names of instruments in the ancient text speak of soothsaying or Sorcery (Miriam and the Levites, performers in Revelation 18). You really CAN reprogram people by diverting their rational of spiritual mind with mechanical sounds which attacks the very structure of space-time. That is why all history sources them form the demons or demigods including Jubal who HANDLED instruments meaning without authority with a sexual meaning.

The Bible is a BLUEPRINT FOR A SCHOOL OF THE WORD. 

The Synagogue or Church of Christ in the Wilderness
Thomas Campbell and the meaning of Church and Worship
Thomas Campbell and the meaning of Church and Worship

The people assemble themselves and the Elders PREACH the Word (Logos) by READING the Word. That pattern was defined to Moses in Exodus 18 before the nation fell into instrumental idolatry at Mount Sinai: that was Demon worship (1 Corinthians 10) and the demon was identified by a BULL. Rick Atchley wants his BLUEPRINT for a Religious Institution with a pyramid of power leadership. He wants it to manage all of the surplus time and money of the paying "audience."  He wants to keep control of Religious Observations or Services (hard bondage). As the Promised Shiloh when Jacob told the godly people NOT to attend the assemblies or enter into covenant with the Levites (Genesis 49), Jesus said DON'T GO THERE: the Kingdom is within and worship is WITHIN devoted to THE TRUTH.  Jesus said that the kingdom does NOT come to the patternists ceremonially legalistic OBSERVATIONS.

So, you can follow Christ's "preliminary drawing" or you can attend Works-Intensive Ceremonies for which there is no ROLE and no DOLE.  No!  There is no Law of Giving into the hands of a preacher giving him the authority to divert it.

However, neither one SEES the Bible: we disciples know to  READ the text for our EDUCATION.  Jesus added the Lord's Supper to the Church of Christ in the wilderness: therefore, it is still a ONE PIECE PATTERN because the Lord's Supper is a time to EXAMINE OURSELVES as at Passover-unleaved bread, they searched thee "house" with a candle and silence: the LEAVEN of the Pharisees is defined by Jesus who called them hypocrites: in Ezekiel 33 the Spirit OF (a preposition) Christ named names: self-speakers, lovely singers and instrument players. The mark was that they REFUSED to listen and obey.  It is a fact: "Christ never said 'thou shalt not be a hypocrite.'" The LOGOS or REGULATIVE PRINCIPLE outlaws acting or using self-references, poetry, music or drama. Well, man Dare to be a Hypocrite cause a spirit told them so.

It is certain that both got their license and stack of sermon outlines--

  1.  Without being able to define Qahal, synagogue, ekklesia or Church of Christ (the Rock) in the wilderness
  2.  Without being able to define worship.
  3. And ignoring the command of Jesus to teach what HE commanded to be taught.
  4. Because Christians are Disciples and Disciples are Students "washed in water INTO the Word" or into the School of Christ.
  5. Purpose Driven to be ANTI-logos which through the mouth of Christ only is defined as the REGULATIVE PRINCIPLE.  Churches of Christ did not invent Commands, Examples and Inferences: that began in the garden of Eden and Eve (Zoe, Mediatrix) played theologian and added to God's Word.
  6. See Commands, Examples, Necessary Inference for the DETAILED PATTERN for PREACHING the Word (Regulative Principle) by READING the prophets and apostles FOR OUR LEARNING.
  7. If Rick hears spirits, minimal ethics would force him to go buy his own property because God HATES instruments in the holy places (Amos 8) and God HATES men who sow discord.
  8. Or that a church is built upon or educated or LEARNED by the Prophets and Apostles.
  9. Or that Peter outlawed private interpretation or further expounding because that would REPUDIATE the Spirit OF Christ and mark one as a False Teacher.
  10. Or that from Genesis to Revelation Rick's "preliminary drawing" marks instrumental noise as sorcery brought into the garden of Eden by the singing and harp-playing prostitute.

    Ezekiel 28:13 Thou hast been in Eden the garden of God; every precious stone was thy covering, the sardius, topaz, and the diamond, the beryl, the onyx, and the jasper, the sapphire, the emerald, and the carbuncle, and gold: the workmanship of thy tabrets and of thy pipes was prepared in thee in the day that thou wast created. [OR cast down as profane out of heaven: the praise word.]

    Isaiah 23:15 And it shall come to pass in that day, that Tyre [and Judah] shall be forgotten seventy years, according to the days of one king:
            after the end of seventy years shall Tyre sing as an harlot.
    Which is: Isaiah 23:16 Take an [1] harp, go about the city, thou harlot that hast been forgotten;
           make sweet
    [2]  melody, sing many [3]  songs, that thou mayest be remembered. [as a Male]

  11. Or that Christ EXCLUDED vocal or instrumental rejoicing for the assembly in the wilderness which word excludes self-speaking.  Jesus said that the self-speakers were sons of the Devil. Where did Rick Atchley get the claimed spirit-led authority to call Christ in the prophets and apostles and church history before the instrumental sectarians liars. John Calvin Understood that the ONLY Assembly to which Godly people were called quarantined people FROM the instrumentalists PATTERNISTS under the cursed monarchy. While Christ defined the RESTORATION of the old paths in Isaiah 58, Calvin called for a Restoration of the Church of Christ.

        For where can I exert myself to better purpose or more honestly, where, too, in a matter at this time more necessary, than in attempting, according to my ability, to aid the Church of Christ, whose claims it is unlawful in any instance to deny, and which is now in grievous distress, and in extreme danger? 

    But there is no occasion for a long preface concerning myself. Receive what I say as you would do if it were pronounced by the united voice

    of all those who either have already taken care to restore the Church,
    or are desirous that it
    should be restored to true order.

  12. All church scholars claims to be Apostolic: that is a Christian Assembly is patterned to be based on the recorded Scriptures.  If the Spirit OF Christ was able only to make a sketch knowing that Doctors of the Law whom He said "take away the key to knowledge" would be able to finalize the PATTERN which, like the olden patternists adds three or four more PIECES to the same old pattern.
  13. But not to worry: Apollo, Abaddon or Apollyon has been unleashed with the Muses (Locusts) and HE is the leader of the muses defined as sorcerers and consigned to the Lake of Fire.
  14. Hope that Building upon later-day apostles patternists will give them confidence in everyone who DELIBERATELY refuses to build or educate upon the apostles and prophets with Christ being the Spirit in both.
  15. When Abaddon as the leader of the unleashed locusts of muses uses "lusted after fruits" (same as in Amos 8) the SOUNDS, as in Isaiah 30 by Christ, is Jesus visiting to remove the lamps or seven spirits of God (Isaiah 11)
  16. That is the sudden RUSH to minimize or remove CHRIST from their public confession: they have no choice. The Prophetic type in Amos 8 says that "God will not pass by again."
  17. I just learned that the Mother Goddess can also be MALE and the BEASTS (Serpent) is defined as a sudden NEW STYLE OF MUSIC OR DRAMA along with Satyric Dramas.  The Serpo or Beast in Genesis includes the idea of WINDING in a crooked path to deceived and includes the Latin Word CARMEN.  That fits the definition of the Serpent as a Musical Enchanter(ess) and Christ defining Lucifer as the singing and haro-playing prostitute in the garden of Eden.

Never follow people selling themselves as authorized to sow massive Discord and offend thousands and thousands of widows and honest working people.

Romans 15:4 For whatsoever things were written aforetime were written for our learning, that we through patience and comfort of the scriptures might have hope.

The Holy Scriptures includes the Prophets and Apostles and Christ in the prophets radically condemns selling the free water of the Word or seeking your own pleasure or SPEAKING YOUR OWN WORDS.

The Ekklesia did not change the Christ-given ONE PIECE PATTERN in the wilderness to quarantine the godly people from the Jacob-cursed and God-abandoned Levites performing SOOTHSAYING or SORCERY with instruments as the "dumb-making" machines:

Acts 15:21 For Moses of old time hath in every city
        them that PREACH him,
        being READ in the synagogues every sabbath day.

There is no command, example or remote inference of people being called into assembly to sing congregationally with or without instruments. I take that back, the PLAY at Mount Sinai was musical idolatry of the pagan trinity. Romans 1 as well as the Old Testament proves that this led to PLAYING with one another.

From the Musical Enchanter(ess) in the Garden of Eden which Christ identified as a Singing and Harp-Playing prostitute to the end-time.

See John T. Willis for Brandon Scott Thomas at Grace and Communion

"Last night was just incredible. The energy and excitement in the room were palpable. It almost felt like a herd of wild horses waiting behind a gate and then being released. Once the music kicked in and the first song began, the singing was almost deafening... thank you for all the HARD WORK " Thank you to the band--Amy, Nathan Sheasby, Matt Roberson, and Claire Warlick. You all lead us with grace, skill and heart!"

This defines the LOCUSTS or MUSES where Apollo, Abaddon or Apollyon IS the leader of the muses.


The ORPHIC (Rome; Romans 14 silenced) THEOGONY

THE MUSIC AT THE ARCANE RITES. Iamblichus III

In addition to these things you remark as follows: "So also certain others of these ecstatics become entheast or inspired when they hear cymbals, drums, or some choral chant, 21 as, for example, those who are engaged in the Korybantic Rites, 22 those who are possessed at the Sabazian festival and those who are celebrating the Rites of the Divine Mother."23

Hence [Paul] he counsels that only two or three should SPEAK in turn, and one interpret; but if nobody present is capable of this, they should keep silence, and speak only to themselves and to God:

"for not of tumult is he a god, but of tranquillity." (Ovid; Fasti IV,
"The attendants
beat the brass, and the hoarse-sounding hides. Cymbals they strike in place of helmets, tambourines for the shields; the pipe yielded its Phrygian notes.")
Paul commanded SPEAK "that which is written for our LEARNING" (Eph 5; Romans 15)
ODE and PSALLO is to be IN the hear or SILENT
Because ODE is the opposite of SPEAK and SPEAK is the opposite of ODE.

22. The Korybantes are variously described. Their cult was identified or closely allied to that of the Kabeirian divinities, and that of the Great Mother. It was celebrated in the islands of the Aegean Sea and in Phygia. Music, dancing, processions, and ecstatic frenzy were characteristics.

GOD ABANDONED THE CIVIL-MILITARY-CLERGY: the Jacob-Cursed and God-abandoned Levites to the worship of the starry HOST (Missed Acts 7?).  This WAS and IS Sabazianism OUTED first on the Babylonian WORSHIP day and God's REST day.

23. Sabazios, Sabaoth, or Sabbat, the god of the Planet Saturn, was better known as Bacchus or Dionysos, and was also styled in Semitic countries, Iao or Yava. His worship was more or less associated and identified with that of the Great Mother, under various designations, and it was characterized by phallephoric [carrying the penis] processions, dances, mourning for the slain divinity, and the Watch Night. It came from Assyria as its peculiar symbols, the ivy or kissos, the spotted robe or Nimr, and the Thyrso, indicate.

The name Zagreus the Kissos and nimr remind us of Kissaia or Asiatic Ethiopia, and the Zagros mountains occupied by the Nimr. Assyria was called "the land of Nimrod." -Amos VIII.

It is proper, accordingly, to tell the causes of these things, how they came into existence, and what explanation there is for the performing of the Rites.

These allusions which you make, namely, that the music at these festivals is exciting and passionate;

that the sound of the flutes causes or heals conditions of aberration; that the music changes the temperaments or dispositions of the body;

that by some of the choral songs the Bacchic frenzy is excited,
but by others the
Bacchic orgies [wrath] are made to cease;

how the peculiar differences of these accord with the various dispositions of the soul, and also that the peculiar wavering and variable choric chants, such as those of Olympus, and others of the same kind., are adapted to the producing of ecstasies 24 -- all of them seem to me to be stated in a manner unfavorable to the entheast condition; for they are both physical and human in their quality and performances, according to our technic, but nothing essentially divine appears in them.

24. Proclus declared that the choral songs of Olympus were adapted to produce ecstasy. Plato describes an audience in Ion, comparing it to a series of iron rings connected by a chain and moved by the lodestone: "Some hand from one Muse and some from another," he remarks, "some, for example, from Orpheus, others from Mussios, but the greater part are inspired by Homer and are held fast by him."

26. With the Korghantians, this represented a guard about the Demiurgos or Creator; with the Kuretes, it denoted a protecting of the divine maid Kora.

26. Servius remarks that the Sacred observances of Father Liber, the Roman Bacchus, related to the purification of souls. This cleansing, as here declared, was considered to be not only from contamination acquired by coming into the conditions of physical existence, but also from guilt actually incurred.

Thou seemest to think that those who are enrapt by the Mother of the gods are males, for thou callest them, accordingly, "Metrizontes";

yet that is not true, for the "Metrizontesć" are chiefly women. A very few, however, are males, and such as may be more delicate. [that always meant homosexuals]

This enthusiasm has a power that is both life-engendering and perfective, in which respect it differs from every other form of frenzy.

In Romans 14 Paul silenced the sects in Rome which were well documented: that included the Pythagorians from the WORLD or KOSMOS or COSMIC worship.

And sometimes by means of melodies without words they cured certain affections and diseases, and this they said was the real means of "charming". And it is most probable that the word "charm" (epode) came into general use from them. It was thus, then,

        that Pythagoras established a most salutary system of regenerating the morals by means of "music" [Mantravidyâ].' (Op. cit. Kiessling's text, pp. 245, 246; see also Taylor, Iamblichus on the Mysteries, 2nd ed., pp. 130, 131, n.)

Music and Mantras, therefore, were used by the Orphics (A roman sect in Romans 14) to attract, or call down, the influence of the Mother of the Gods, who at the same time was the 'Store-house of Life', of Divine Nature. Thus Proclus in his Commentary on Euclid (ii) tells us that 'the Pole of the World is called by the Pythagoreans the Seal of Rhea' (Myst. Hymns, p. 63).

Now the pole is the conductor of the vital and magnetic forces of the earth-envelope, and is, therefore, appropriately called by this name, as being the seal and signature of the vital forces of Divine Nature, whereby all diseases can be healed and all states of the soul vitalized.

Rhea [EVE-ZOE] was also called Brimô by the Phrygians, and her son (Zeus) was called Brimos.

Revelation 17 speaks of the beginning time Mother of the gods: she uses "lusted after fruits" (See the Prophetic Type in Amos  8) as speakers, singers and instrument players.  John calls them SORCERERS using the identical Mother Goddess in Babylon's "ministry" title.

Whatever "rationale" they use God says that the imagination of man is only evil continually. That is why they HATE the concept of the Regulative Principle because the LOGOS defines Christ speaking for God as the ONLY resource which you should LISTEN TO and certainly PAY FOR since there is no DOLE for self-speakers.

They burn witches, don't you know, and John called all the religious teknokrats, singers, instrument players SORCERERS who HAD deceived the whole world once.  The SOUNDS in the holy places, like Amos 8, proved that God had been there and would not pass by again: never ever. The sorcerer Ministry Staff was to be cast alive into the lake of fire.  That's wonderful because the ELECT are in serious danger and maybe God will cut them short.

Lynn Anderson and Family concocted a long list which was used to subvert the Oak Hillls elders some of whom knew that they had fallen and could never be corrected.  Jesus said that all that came before Him were liars and Christ in the prophets identifies the Civil-Military-Clergy complex (coming to a church near you) were robbers and parasites: that's provable since all sacrificial instrument players were called PARASITES.

Anyone who suggests MUSICAL PERFORMANCE in what is defined as Qahal, synagogue, Ekklesia or Church of Christ (the Rock) in the wilderness calls all of the ugly references from Genesis to Revelation and most church historians liars.  If you say that God COMMANDED instruments when God did the opposite then Christ in Jeremiah 23 says that you Despise or Blaspheme the Holy Spirit OF Christ (the only one).

David Faust and all of the Sowers of Discord Denies that Jesus had anything against what is clearly meant to be "singing and instrumental music in the assembly."  ACU , Pepperdine and the NACC are on the same page this year trying to restore COSMIC WORSHIP which they did.  Too bad that Jesus does not pray for the Kosmos people and God hides from the wise or sophists meaning "speakers, singers and instrument players"

10.05.13 Brandon Scott Thomas Highland Church of Christ

The Zoe Group was used by the defected Workshops of Evil (re Ezekiel) to help lead churches of Christ into the use of 'worship teams' (blasphemy) leading to instrumental music.  Zoe or Eve was known as the BEAST and female instructing principle. Fittingly, the Babylon Mother of Harlots (Rev 17) uses Lusted after FRUITS (Same as in Amos}. In Revelation 18 John names speakers, singers, Instrument players and TECHNE or craftsmen. The Millstone gave a piping sound and always identified the location of the prostitute or "grinders."  The BEAST in Revelation identifies the Satyric Dramas and "A new style of music and drama."  John says that they are being Cast Alive into the Lake of Fire as the Spirit OF Christ in Isaiah 30 says that the sounds of wind, string and percussion instruments are MARKS to show that God is driving His enemies into "Hell."

His Worship Team boasts of standing in the holy place LEADING you into the presence of God.

Jesus taught "in remembrance of me." The Passover-Unleavened Bread included searching the dwelling in silence and a candle. We are to remove the Leaven of the Scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites which Christ defined in Ezekiel 33 as SELF-speakers, singers and instrument players.  Hypocrite meaning #1: anyone who sells his body or talents claiming to speak for God. Showing forth or PREACHING the Death of Jesus in the men and women be SILENT so that "everyone come to a knowledge of the Truth as the SOLE Role for  A Church of Christ. 

That DEbunks self-preachers or musicians (always female or effeminate) as mediators able to "lead you into the presence of God" which is a blasphemous claim because:

1Timothy 2:5 For there is one God,
        and one mediator between God and men,
        the man Christ Jesus;

Christ defined the Church inclusively and exclusively in the wilderness and speaking through the prophets warned:

Isaiah 8:20 To the law and to the testimony:
        if they speak not according to this word,
        it is because there is no light in them.

Ephesians 2:20 And are built upon [educated by] the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Jesus Christ himself being the chief corner stone;

2Peter 3:2 That ye may be mindful of the words
        which were spoken before by the holy prophets,
        and of the commandment of us the apostles of the Lord and Saviour:

The elders as the only Pastor-Teachers are commanded to teach that which has been taught.  Those who CORRUPT that Word (Logos=Regulative Principle) sell learning at retail meaning adultery or prostitution.

To this Socrates replied: “Antiphon, it is common opinion among us
        in regard to beauty and wisdom
                that there is an honourable
                and a shameful way of bestowing them.
        For to offer one's beauty for money to all comers is called prostitution;

        But we think it virtuous to become friendly with
              a lover who is known to be a man of honour.

        So is it with wisdom. Those who offer it to all comers for money
               are known as sophists, prostitutors of wisdom

        But we think that he who makes a friend of one whom he knows to be gifted
               by nature, and teaches him all the good he can,

               fulfils the duty of a citizen and a gentleman.

This is the Prophecy by Christ in Isaiah 3 when WOMEN and BOYS will rule over you.  Recorded history knows nothing else.

"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.

"Dionysus is the wine-god, and thus should be a pleasant fellow, a benefactor. But wine has both positive and negative aspects. It makes people drunk, causes them to behave in strange ways. The Greeks were well aware of the dual natures of wine, mirrored by the dual nature of its god.... He betrays a dual nature: being bright, joyous, and vital for life,

while also having a side that is dark, mysterious and deadly.

"The adored wife of the fallen Hector, is taken as a concubine by the authentes, who can command her domestic and sexual services. The word also occurs in a homosexual sense in a speech by Theseus, king of Athens, where love of young boys was considered a virtue rather than a vice." (Charles Trombly, Who Said Women Can't Teach, p. 174)

"Michael Clycas, the Byzantine historiographer, uses this verb to describe the woman, 'who make sexual advances to men and fornicate as much as they please without arousing their husband's jealous.'" (Charles Trombly, Who Said Women Can't Teach, p. 176)

Ephesus was famous for its shrine of Diana, where thousands of sacred prostitutes believed fornication

brought believers into contact with deity
in much the say way the Gnostics used authentia to bind the flesh and the divine together. When these owm converted to Christianity they had to unlearn these pagan practices.' Trombley, p. 177)

But the Bible teaches that to seduce men in such a manner was indeed to lead them to slaughter and the halls of death (cf. Prov. 2:18; 5:5; 6:27; 9:18).

The verb authentein is thus peculiarly apt to describe both the erotic and murderous." (Trombley, Who Says Women Can't Teach, p. 177)

Revised 9.15.13 Rick Atchley Musically Mocking Jesus at the Cross

Rick Atchley: What are you going to wind up with if you follow Jesus? You are going to wind up with a cross on your back, aren’t you? Let me just imagine—I don’t think anybody with a cross on their back, about to die, fussed about a piano (much laughter). Did they? That’s not what you talk about when you are on your way to be crucified. When you and I die to self, we can be of the same mind, even when we are not of the same opinion. I think it is a crucial matter we need to get across. Be of the same mind with one another.

Paul defined the PATTERN to "use one mind and one mouth to speak that which is written for our learning." But, then, that would leave nothing for Ricky to MARKET at retail which is "corrupting the Word" or prostitution.

Rick's Levite Patternists MUSICALLY MOCKED Jesus up to the foot of the old rugged cross. Music by the Parasites meant to make the lambs dumb before the slaughter.  It still works.  Mocking or play includes any giddy rhetoric, singing, playing instruments or juggling which clearly intends to direct the attention away from Christ and His Words to to antics of the performer.  Thinking that The Eternal God of the universe can be called down, appeased, entertained or otherwise affected is true MADNESS.

Revised 8.21.13 Rick Atchley The Deal about Baptism

Revised 8.18.13 Rick Atchley Hearing from God.  Rick Atchley claims that the Holy Spirit belatedly told him that He needed to out himself and tell everyone about his hidden agenda.  It was not hidden from those who been following in the wreckage created by the psychological weapon of claiming that God COMMANDED instrumental praise and WE must not be disobedient.  In other words, if you don't quit disturbing everyone by NOT using instruments because the Bible called it the way to MAKE THE LAMBS DUMB BEFORE THE SLAUGHTER, you will be VIOLATING a direct command of God.  Never mind that God ABANDONED Israel because of the musical idolatry of the Egyptian trinity.  This writer has had three investments with the Lord suddenly confiscated by the musical idolaters.

Matthew 27:29 And when they had platted a crown of thorns, they put it upon his head, and a reed in his right hand:
        and they bowed the knee before him,
        and mocked him, saying, Hail, King of the Jews!
Matthew 27:31 And after that they had mocked him, they took the robe off from him,
       
and put his own raiment on him, and led him away to crucify him.

This is prophesied in great Detail in Psalm 41 and especially the Dead Sea Version.  This is the prophecy of Judas whose Judas Bag was "for carrying the mouthpieces of wind instruments."
Augustine's Version of Psalm 41  Augustine also warned about the sexual feelings aroused by music: that's the universal meaning.

IT'S TRUE: JESUS NEVER POSTED A LAW THAT SAID "THOU SHALT NOT MUSICALLY MOCK ME"

Revised 5.17.13 Neither ANTI-instrumental hermeneuts nor the ANTI-anti-instrumentalists deny the Biblical, historical and the Campbell teaching that Qahal, synagogue, ekklesia or Church of Christ (the Rock) is A School of Christ or A School of the Word of Christ.  Singing as an ACT (that legalism word) was first imposed in the year 373: that split the east from the west churches and history is filled with records of people imposing musicj. Music derived from mystery meant in all paganism including the sacrificial systems "making the lambs dumb before the slaughter."  Jesus identified the doctors of the law as "taking away the key to knowledge." He called the Scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites: in the Ezekiel 33 version marked for avoidance "self-speakers, singers and talented instrument players." The MARK in several Old Testament versions is "we will NOT speak that for which we take away the living of widows and honest workers:

The CENI is defined by the Spirit OF Christ in the Wilderness and in the Prophets and prophecies made more certain by Jesus.  The Apostles were eye-- and ear--witnesses of the risen Lord Who returned as The Holy Spirit (breath, wind) in the upper room. They mark as false teachers anyone who does not teach that PATTER of foundation:

Matthew 28:17 And when they saw him, they worshipped him: but some doubted.
Matthew 28:18 And Jesus came and spake unto them, saying,
        All power is given unto me in heaven and in earth.
Matthew 28:19 Go ye therefore,
        and teach all nations,
        baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost:
        Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you:
        and, lo, I am with you alway, even unto the end of the world. Amen. Matthew 28:20

Acts 15:21 For Moses
        of old time hath
        in every city them that preach him,
        being read in the synagogues every sabbath day.

Paul commanded that we SPEAK that which is written for our learning (Romans 15).  He also commanded that we fill up with SPIRIT (Word in Col 3:16) and Teach and Admonish with the Biblical material which includes "teaching psalms." This is in contrast to the drinking songs of the crooked race of the symposia where the goal was to become "fluted down with wine."

Both singing in the pagan sense and beating on "instruments of delusion" was worship IN THE FLESH which Paul rejects in Philippians 3 because it permitted the "conscision or dogs" to destroy the rest Jesus died to give us from the laded burdens of the arousal songs by Jews or Gentiles.

In contrast, if you use one mind and one mouth to speak that which is written for our learning you MUST keep the arousal singing and beating on instruments quiet and permit melody (or grace) to be IN the heart where grace means the divine influence of the GRACE which hath appeared teaching us to DENY the world's religions.

The idea suggested by proskunoimen and hieron, that the poet is a sort of theos or theios [god or goddess] anēr, is now elaborated with ironical politeness. The images of the gods were anointed, and crowned with garlands, not only on great occasions (cf. Cic. Verr. IV 77), but also at other times, according to Proclus, who remarks on this passage muron autēs (sc. tēs poiētikēs) ...Apropos of the present passage, Dio Chrysostom and other ancient writers cited by Ast refer to the anointing of swallows by Greek women: kai keleuei mala eirōnikōs (so Ast: MSS eirēnikōs) stepsantas auton eriō kai murō katakheantas aphienai par' allous: touto de hai gunaikes epi tōn khelidon ōn poiousi (Dio Chr.

Would that I could go to Cyprus, the island of Aphrodite, where the Loves, who soothe [405] mortals' hearts, dwell, and to Paphos, fertilized without rain by the streams of a foreign river flowing with a hundred mouths.

Pind. I. 8 Even when he was dead songs did not forsake him; beside his pyre and tomb the Muses of Helicon stood, and poured over him the many-voiced dirge. It proved to be the will of the immortals [60] to make a noble man, even when dead, a theme for the hymns of goddesses; and even now this brings up a subject for words, and the Muses' chariot rushes forward to shout praises in memory of Nicocles the boxer. Honor him, who won the garland of wild Dorian celery in the Isthmian valley; since [65] he too was once victorious over all that lived around him, battering them with his inescapable hands. He is not dishonored by the offspring of his father's distinguished brother. Therefore let another young man weave for Cleandros a garland of tender myrtle in honor of the pancratium, since the contest of Alcathous and the young men of Epidaurus welcomed him before in his success. A good man may praise him, [70] for he did not restrain his youth, keeping it hidden in his pocket1and ignorant of fine deeds.

Empty hopes end in vain; but it is easy to set up, for your fatherland and for the Chariads, a monument of the Muses in honor of the twice illustrious feet of two men. I rejoice in letting fly a boast suitable to such a deed; and with incantations a man [50] makes hardship painless. Truly, the song of victory existed long ago, even before the quarrel arose between Adrastus and the race of Cadmus.

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: for thy merchants were the great men of the earth; for by thy sorceries were all nations deceived.
Revelation 21:8 But the fearful, and unbelieving, and the abominable, and murderers, and whoremongers, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all liars, shall have their part in the lake which burneth with fire and brimstone: which is the second death.
Revelation 18:24 And in her was found the blood of prophets, and of saints, and of all that were slain upon the earth.

See our look at Rick Atchley's Seven Churches in Revelation.  Rick does not build on the foundation or the text and therefore misses the point that sowing discord with musical instruments--called sorcery in Revelation 18--is exactly what John warned us to mark and avoid.
NACC 2013 Victorius Review.  Part of the victory celebration is that a very small number including Rick Atchley was purpose driven to convert HIS church to the use of musical instruments.

Rick Atchley 2013 NACC on Revelation 19
Rick Atchley also working with Mike Cope and Pepperdine to DEprograme young ministers of the Church of Christ on Revelation 19 which defines what is happening as the BEASTS making their MARKS.

RICK ATCHLEY Etal handled by David Faust finally confesses
Rick Atchley: The era of the progressive Church of Christ is over.

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!

Rick Atchley part of the PEPPERDINE effort to divert young preachers on Revelation 21

On Friday morning, Rick Atchley of The Hills Church of Christ in Fort Worth will bring us to the story’s climactic moment in Revelation 19-20—the final showdown between our adversaries and our Hero. The good news:  Christ will return, the dragon will be defeated, and God’s eternal kingdom will be established!  That coming salvation prompts in Revelation 19 the only New Testament usage of “Hallelujah!”

Revelation 19:3NIV   And again they shouted:
      “Hallelujah!
      The smoke from her goes up for ever and ever.

The tiny godly remnant is the ones who can rejoice when the Babylon Mother of Harlots (Revelation) and her "lusted after fruits" (Revelation) as self-speakers, singers and instrument players have their LAMPS removed and are cast ALIVE into the Lake of fire.

The Sprit OF Christ in Isaiah 30 says that the wind, string and percussion instruments will be the MARK that God is driving His enemies into Hell.  Since those commanded NOT to make noise when Christ speaks will never HEAR those sounds can we agree that the ENEMY will identify themselves with musical instruments.

Jesus said that Tyre with the spirit of LUCIFER (Zoe) was cast as profane (that halal word meaning play the flute, steal other's inheritance, pollute or prostitute.  The Serpent (Zoe) is called the singing and harp-playing prostitute in the garden of Eden.

The Alpha and Omega called the fruits as priests of the Babylon Mother of Harlots as speakers, singers and instrument players SORCERERS and says that they will or ARE cast alive into the lake of fire.
 

Rick Atchley and the NACC Law of Silence

Rick Atchley of Richland Hills Church of Christ claims Apostolic authority to sow discord among familes just to impose instrumental music? It has been in the works for years and navigating the winds of change is easier than BLOWING false spirits.  Read the added lower notes that proves that this is rank paganism. Rick and David Faust have Mark Henderson at Quail Springs doing catch up with a lot of sowing of discord.

8.08.12 Is sowing discord on the Psallo foundation blaspheming the Spirit OF Christ?
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:
  1. He was too ignorant not to use TWO words such as PSALLO Plus A Harp.
  2. He was too ignorant not to use one compound word which meant play a harp
  3. 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
  4. 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.

Anti-psallô, A.play a stringed instrument in accompaniment of song, a. elegois phorminga  {harp of Apollo, Abaddon, Apollyon's instrument]
 

Epi-psallō, A. play the lyre, S.Fr.60, Poll.4.58(Pass.); “melesi kai rhuthmois”

Even if you define a melody that would NOT include a rhythm.

        III. the part one takes in a thing
B. Especially musical member, phrase: hence, song, strain, first in h.Hom.19.16
        lyric poetry, choral songs, Opposite Epic or Dramatic verse

Perhaps the Holy Spirit was not educated enough NOT to use psallo which is never translated to mean musical melody and was not aware that He could have used MELOS which means musical melody or a series of single notes.
HH 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.

8.15.11 The "Stone" term intends to say that what became The Churches of Christ sected out of the Disciples/Christian churches. Of course, there was nothing in common between the two groups at the time and the NACC or Christian Churches sected out of the Disciples from 1927 until 1971 when they were de-listed. That was the time the Christian Churches began "unity" efforts intended to convert everyone to their musical apostasy.

Rick Atchley reading off the NACC's "white" paper uses the Levites to say that God COMMANDED that Instruments be used in His church.  However, Jacob prophesied of Jesus and warned us NOT to attend the assemblies of the Levites or join in an covenant with them: that is because they employed "instruments" which word includes swords as well as the psaltery.
JACOB PROPHESIED OF THE HOSTILE LEVI TRIBE BEFORE THE COMING OF CHRIST.

GOD WARNED ABOUT THE TRIBE OF LEVI IN PROPHEY. God said DON'T use them as a patternism: the false teachers INSIST that a "spirit" told them that God COMMANDED him to impose the Levites.  Because the nation was a NATIONAL Civil-Military-Clergy complex so common in all of the nations, this warning would fit any time period even now.

GOD GAVE ISRAEL THE BOOK OF THE COVENANT OF GRACE: THE ABRAHAMIC COVENANT

The people refused to hear it from God and demanded Moses as mediator (preacher, pastor). They were made deaf and dumb so they could not read the BLACK text on BROWN paper unto they converted to Christ.  Moses promised another Prophet like Him and He would be the final word from God (2 Cor 3)

This proves that the Atchley etal pattern is the MARK of people who are no longer able to read or hear the word which was READ in the synagogues.
When they refused to hear THE WORD OF GOD the sentence was that they fell immediately into MUSICAL IDOLATRY of the Egyptian trinity. God removed the Covenant of Grace, abandoned them to worship the starry host (Acts 7; Amos). AGAIN, this is a pattern or motiff so that when you HEAR the sounds of trumpets and other instruments it is the MARK that God had made you blind and deaf and turned you over to BURN GOATS which is Rick Atchley's (NACC) PATTERN for the use of the cursed Levites' instruments under the King and Commanders of the Army and sent you on your path to return to Babylon, captivity and death.
The Jacob-Cursed Levites received their commission or that which GOD COMMANDED in Rick Atchley's proof text from 2 Chronicles 29: They, like modern musical worship and rhetorical teams JUMPED at the opportunity to slay the souls of innocent lambs.
Exodus 32:27 And he said unto them, Thus saith the LORD God of Israel, Put every man his sword by his side, and go in and out from gate to gate throughout the camp, and slay every man his brother, and every man his companion, and every man his neighbour.
Exodus 32:28 And the children of Levi did according to the word of Moses: and there fell of the people that day about three thousand men.
The Levites as the Soothsaying with Instrumental accompanient with their weapons was God's commanto EXECUTE all of those who fall into MUSICAL IDOLATRY.  If a musical worship team or praise team has invaded your congregation it is proof that you have CONDONED ignoring the Word of God--as it is written for our learning (Rom 15) and the team has been sent to EXECUTE you spiritually: the godly WILL flee.
In Revelation 18 the Sorcerers with Instrumental accompaniment are EXPELLED from the "holy place" or Body of Christ at the same time Jesus comes and removes his Lamps (18:13) which are the seven spirits all related to Divine knowledge.

This is absolutely proven when God through Moses promised to execute any Levite or other singer-players who can NEAR any holy thing or INTO any holy place. The Holy Place was an earthly pattern of the Tabernacle in heaven: the only thing in there are the Menorah (Truth), the Bread of fellowship and looking into the Most Holy place tthe Incense altar which replaces both the prayers and the harps OF God
When David became king the Levites who had driven the enemy into cowardice with instruments were SURPLUS and under the King and Commanders of the army he commanded that they stand guard on all of the future temple rituals: the loud noise was a WARNING against any civillian not to come INSIDE the gates or be executed. That is why all sacrificial musicians (noise makers) were called PARASITES and so they are.
Those who USE the Levitical singers (Parasites) are the slaughter priests known as HERETICS: they lift them up literally or with music to cut their throats.  This is outlawed by the word for Self-pleasure in Romans 15 and that includes all of the performing or hypocritic arts and crafts.
The godly people always attended synagogue or the Church of Christ (the Rock) beginning in the wilderness where vocal or instrumental rejoicing including any high rhetoric was outlawed.
The alarm or "triumph over" word means "vocal or instrumental rejoicing or any high-sounding rhetoric. This was a RESERVED word first used to MARK Judas in Psalm 41: when the Levites musically mocked Jesus up to the cross, this was a SUPERNATURAL SIGN that the Violent Men using Violent means took the kingdom (Jesus) bur only for an instant: Then as with all of the instrumental noise was the SIGNAL that the Levites and their instruments woulld be tossed into the garbage pit--a lake of fire--to be consumed by maggots and fire.
Christians could not even hallucinate making instrumental noise to take the attention (worship) from Jesus and His Word. Giving heed to the Words of Christ in the Prophets and Apostles is the ONLY definition of "worship" in the Bible in a spiritual sense. These changeling-hirelings have restored IMPURE religion or worship or Threskia derived from Orheus -- that Thracian.

Those under the influence of the NACC by using the Levites and the sacrificial system as their pattern for worship, have detoured to the worship of the starry host like all of those under the Monarchy and the sacrificial system.  They missed reading Genesis 49 and took the wrong fork in the road and failed to read beyond proof texts for the rest of the prophesied future:
Gen. 49:22 Joseph is a fruitful bough, even a fruitful bough by a well;
        whose branches [children] run over the wall:
Gen. 49:23 The archers have sorely grieved him, and shot at him, and hated him:

If you ignore Jacob and attend their assemblies, remember that God has no grace for the blind who follow the blind.

http://www.pineycom.com/Levites2.html

No one prior to 1878 ever though that the "psallo" word had any connection to the use of instruments in what the Churches of Christ
        called A School of Christ
        where worship was Reading and Musing the Word of God: that began by Christ in the wilderness.

No scholar believed that God COMMANDED the use of instruments (to make noise) in the worship of the godly Israelites who attended synagogue and were quarantined from the "worship of the starry host" at the national Temple.

Not until the latest effort to dupe a few preachers and pseudo-scholars has anyone ever said that God commanded instrumental music in the worship of God and YOU had better not disobey.

  1. If you say that God commanded the Levite's instruments in the worship of the Jews.
  2. And God has not commanded anyone to use musical instruments at any time or place.
  3. The Holy Spirit of Christ speaking through Jeremiah 23 marks you as blaspheming the Holy Spirit.
Preachers and pseudo-scholars use Hezekiah's plague stopping contract with God offering Burnt Goats to appease Israel (the instrumental sect) say that God Commanded the Levites to Play the Musical Instruments. Sure, you can be a scholar without ever having read the whole plot.

Christ the Holy Spirit speaking through the Prophets (not Scribes) said
 For I spake NOT unto your fathers, nor  commanded them
             in the day that I brought them out of the land of Egypt,
             concerning burnt offerings or sacrifices: Jeremiah 7:22
  But this thing commanded I them, saying,
            Obey my voice, and I will be your God, and ye shall be my people: (CENI)
            and walk ye in all the ways that I have commanded you, (CENI)
            that it may be well unto you. Jeremiah 7:23


Jer 23:17 They say still unto them that despise me,

        The Lord hath said, Ye shall have peace;
        and they say unto every one that walketh
        after the imagination of his own heart,
        No evil shall come upon you.

7.12.11
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). There is NO historic scholar who did not agree that Amos was condemning the use of instruments in Samaria.

When Ahaz took the sacrifices and noise (never music) outside of Jerusalem he violated God's law which quarantined the horrors behind closed doors .  If you become a Levite singer outside of the Temple in Jerusalem the PATTERN is that God will send a plague upon you.

See how Rick Atchley and Chris Seidman tell you how they diverted your children.

7.04.11 THIS IS THE DIRECT COMMAND

2Timothy 4:2 Preach the word; be instant in season,
        out of season; reprove, rebuke,
        exhort with all longsuffering and doctrine.

There is not a single command, example of inference of congregational singing with or without instruments. This SILENCE is used by the ANTI-church agents of the NACC while they deliberately ignore the masses of information that the Words of God are to be Spoken or Read: the elders in the synagogue as overseers literally watched over the younger readers to make certain that they did not add or subtract from the written text.

Most of recorded history understood that the only command was to preach or teach: the only resource was the WORD unless you think you are superior to Jesus Christ Who left us the Prophets and Apostles upon which to build or educate the body of Christ.
Cantillation: [The Sephardim have also melodies for the Books of Esther, Ruth, Song of Solomon, and Lamentations of Jeremiah. Not only the canonical books of Scripture, but the Mishna and probably the Jemarah, were recited to cantillation; an edition of the former as late as 1553 was printed with musical accents. (De Sola, p. 12.)]

As the primary use of accents is to point out the usual elevation of the voice, as shown by the Greek accents, which were a comparatively late addition to their written language,

But the very irregularity of this sort of chant renders it singularly appropriate for use to poems of a complicated or constantly changing rhythm, such as the Psalms.

Jesus quoted Christ in Ezekiel 33 to identify hypocrites as speakers, singers and instrument players: Christ also warned about the Lying Pen of the Scribes in their record of the temple--which God did not command.

O, I want to be a Scribe and write
And make my poems and songs
O, I want to be a Scribe and pen
Some scripture false but strong.

O, I want to be a Pharisee

O, I want to be a Pharisee
And spread some plagues and blight.

Oh, I want to be a hypocrite

O, I want to sing and clap and play

God ordained both the resources and method of presentation:

"Hallel, in Jewish ritual, selection from the Psalms, chanted as part of the liturgy during certain festivals. The more frequently used selection includes Psalms 113-118 and is known as the Egyptian Hallel, presumably because Psalm 114 begins, "When Israel went out of Egypt"

It is sung in synagogues on the first two days of Passover, on Shabuoth, on Sukkot, on each morning of the eight days of Hanukkah, and at the close of the Seder.

"The Hallel through the generations, on specific occasions: Pesachim 117a
"Hallel requires a full stomach and a satisfied spirit: Taanis 25b-26a
The reading is beloved to the people, and so they listen closely: Megillah 21b

"The Hallel as an Institution of the Prophets, to use to pray for salvation from danger: Pesachim 117a [2x] Saying the Hallel daily is blasphemous: Shabbos 118b

SPEAKING IN RELATIONSHIP TO THE EKKLESIA, SYNAGOGUE OR CHURCH must be stripped of everything human talent can bring: that woud deny that Christ as the personified WORD who spoke only what He heard from God the Father was good enough.

The Synagogue had no preaching as in "sermonizing" and allegozing was outlawed. The Word was read in a systematic sense as when the text was magically opened when Jesus stood up to read and then sat down.  They explained or often translated and admonished everyone to observe that "read portion." The object is not to preach but to teach "that which has been taught" even as we are commanded to "sing that which is written with one mouth and one mind' as the only way to glorify God who wrote the songs and sermons, to comfort WITH Scripture and keep the unity always upset by human imaginings.

5.01.11 Well prophesied in Revelation 17-18

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.

Church is Ekklesia or Synagogue: both for instruction only: both exclusive of any performing arts: you don't do music when God's Word is taught.  I submit that you cannot be a Christian if you do not understand the meaning of "teach them what I have commanded to be taught."

4.17.11.  Rick Atchley etal use the Burnt offering of the goats to appease Israel as the patternism which says that "God commanded instrumentl praise and we must not be disobedient." God had turned primarily the Jacob-cursed tribe of Levi over to worship the starry host. This was based on the musical idolatry of the Egyptian trinity at Mount Sinai. This was, and is in several passages, a sin beyond redemption.

Acts 7 has Stephen murdered for daring to tell the clergy that the Temple was NOT commanded because God does not live in houses built by human hands nor is He worshipped by the works of human hands--music being one of the most works-intensive forms of legalism. Just as any disciple can see that musical idolatry was what invited God to turn the Levi tribe over to worship the starry host, Stephen quotes Amos to prove the nature of the God-abandoned Jewish worship. That is what the "scholars" all believe that God commanded them to impose on you. Musica always meant to make the lambs dumb before the slaughter.

Christ the Spirit does NOT speak through abandoned king, priests or musicians. Christ inspired the godly prophets ALL of whom call the restored Civil-Clergy complex as robbers and parasites.  You have to be pretty slick to fool so many people into believing that God commanded THEM to restore what Jesus died to put down. Christ speaks through the prophets and the prophecies made more perfect by Jesus speaking to the Apostles. The church is built on the prophets and apostles: not on a huge staff.

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 i
            n 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 enemy during battle (David's Halal) and
        to alert a village that the victorious warriors were coming home with the corpses of the foes.
Moses identified idolatry as the alternative:
Exod 32:18 And he said,
1.        It is not the voice of them that shout for mastery,
2.        neither is it the voice of them that cry for being overcome;
           but the noise of them that sing do I hear.
    "Conch-shell trumpets are used for signaling in the Pacific coastal regions of Columbia and in the Ecuadoran highlands.

        Trumpets also may be associated with the office of king or chief, as in West Africa,
        where their use is strictly controlled by tribal law. "wind instrument" Encyclopćdia Britannica Online.

2.20.11
Jay Guin is a good lawyer: he has come up with a new foundational authority for instrumental music.  However, his premise that God commanded the king, kingdom, temple, animal sacrifices and the associated instrumental noise is wrong: there is no historic scholarship among the church fathers that God commanded that which was the result of "firing" God and demanding a human king.

1.04.11 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.

We have discussed each of Rick's false teachings on a forum where people get a chance to reply
This begins at the December 18 post
Rick's First SET UP for MUSIC: Spirit OF Christ repudiates Him!

David Faust has picked up the absurd notion that God commanded instrumental praise when he permitted or abandoned Israel to form their own nation.  We have done a quick summery of the FALL FROM GRACE because of musical idolatry at Mount Sinai.  All that the false teachers us is derived from a FALLEN NATION doomed--even at Sinai--to return to their old Babylonianism.

Click for a "comic book" illustration to prove that the temple dedication was not proof of God having an orgastic fit caused by the music (really NOISE) but proof that God had  SHUT OFF access to the Word (once in the Ark) and His GRACE under the MERCY seat. Until people are baptized into Christ they can never come boldly before the throne of Grace.

This will link you to the review of David Faust which is a review of Atchley. This covers several fact-packed but not prosey rebuttal in numerous papers.

These people deliberately lie TO God and ABOUT God.  This gives rise to the ANTI-instrumental term which defines those who remained faithful for 2,000 years as destructive and worthy of destruction.

Added notes using Stephen to prove that Amos condemned music and that the TEMPLE was not what God promised David.

Note: Thursday 10:52. I have just listened to Ricks SHOUTHING MATCH with Scripture on his proof-text demanding that God not only PERMITTED what he calls INSTRUMENTAL PRAISE but that he COMMANDED it. He uses all of the usual proof text out of context. He uses all of the isolated verses right out of the handbook by any of the music defenders from the CHRISTIAN CHURCH.  He claims that he has read all of the books by those he, like A Ralph Johnson, he tolerates those who prefere "a capella" which is NOT the meaning of Scripture but for the ANTI-instrumental heretics he really gets violent. 

By looking at the ancient literature which defines the culture IN WHICH the Word of God was revealed, we will understand what Jesus, Paul, Jude, John and others understood which the FALSE TEACHERS do not understand. Why, in the name of sanity would John point to the serpent, to Apollyon, to the locusts, to the muses, to the MOTHER OF HARLOTS, to musical performers as SORCERIERS if God did not intend for those with EYES and EARS to look where they pointed.

A Ralph Johnson Review which pretty much covers the Tom Burgess and Alfred Knowles ditto head stuf.

I can only conclude that, like most "scholars" Rick does not have a remote clue about the flow of the Old Testament. Nay, he does not grasp that the serpent in the Garden of Eden was really a Musical Enchanter.  John identifies the same SERPENT in the book of Revelation as OPHIS (or Sophist) and calls all of the PERFORMERS under the Mother of Harlots (Rev 17) Sorcerers (Rev 18).

He knows nothing of the musical idolatry at Mount Sinai FOR WHICH God slapped them with the LAW and later with kings, kingdom and pagan-like temple because, says Stephen, God turned them over to worship the starry host.  I have never heard anyone list so many passage having people PRAISE God with instruments when he does not grasp that PRAISE or HALAL means to "make a fool of self, or make self vile" which was the way people PRAISED pagan gods or drove the enemy into panic: remember that David was KING and not "worship leader." Halal then is the ROOT meaning of LUCIFER. He does not grasp that Lucifer is called the "singing and harp playing prostitute' in the garden of Eden. He has not read Isaiah and Ezekiel quoted by Jesus to identify the HYPOCRITES as "enchanting" speakers, singers and instrument players. In short, Rick has aligned himself with the LAW which was a CURSE added because of MUSICAL IDOLATRY.

THE PURPOSE DRIVING RICK:

Rick of
Richland Hills Church of Christ confesses to lying to himself for 10-12 years before he could OUT his views. According to Lynn Anderson it takes bout 11 years to CONDITION the "frogs" to be able to tolerate singing during the Lord's Supper.  However, I have recorded some Ricky views from 2002--4 years ago--where he claims his AGENDA to unite with the MUSICAL paganism: "
"The Unity Imperative," and he opened with the declaration, 

"I want to see in my lifetime, our fellowship reunited,
and I intend to do all that I can to see that that happens" (p. 1).

The Church of Christ was never UNIONED with the Disciples and the Christian church did not exist for a decade after The Church of Christ refused to be "taken captive" in the Disciples false census.  While some churches met together in the same building after 1932, Alexander Campbell noted the OBSTACLE to any kind of unity in 1824 and about 1845.

Rick proves that what he means is "I want to see the ANTI-instrumental churches fold up and become Christian Churches."

Charles Spurgeon could not find a word low enough to define a "pastor" who would preach with a congregation whose views he did not support. Therefore, Rick has been at it for a decade and has publically told you what he INTENDED TO to.  You may read here for Ricks AGENDA and links to most of the "important" false teachers in the musical group. 

The Disciples tried and failed to grasp the word PSALLO for the first time in 1878. However, those who ignore earlier discussions, like Tome Burgess and all his repeaters, dig up quotes from the ancient texts to prove that psallo demands "playing a harp."  However, the texts all speak of males PLUCKING the harp to seduce a "youth minister" for pederasty. THERE IS NO OTHER MEANING IN HISTORY.
They could have seen that Paul put the "melody" in the place of the human spirit which is the only place God seeks our worship.  Further, the parallel word in Colossians 3 is GRACE.  We might assume that the word psallo never belonged in Ephesians 5 because it is never used to mean melody and Paul guided by the Spirit OF Christ had words which DID include the instrument:
meloid-ia A.singing, chanting
lur-aoidos one who sings to the lyre,
auloid-os A.one who sings to the flute
psilociitharista One who plays without singing
chorokithar-eus A.one who plays the cithara to a chorus, (Aphrodisias ZOE)
psaltes a player on the cithara, a musician, minstrel

Jesus cast out the musical minstrels 'like dung' and consigned the pipers, singers and dancers to the marketplace FROM WHICH the "psallo rope" drove the slackers to the Ekklesia for verbal instruction only.  That is because all of the singers with instruments were known as parasites.

parasitor, to play the parasite, to sponge: parasitarier, parasitando pascere ventres suos
Similar to kitharizein. See Plautus, Persa 
cĭthărīzo , āre,  kitharizô, to play on or strike the cithara

parasit-os , ho, A.one who eats at the table of another, and repays him with flattery and buffoonery, parasite,  . trapezęs [money changers table]  

II. of priests who had their meals at the public expense,  
2.
one who dines with a superior officer, Arist.Fr.551.
bômolochos [lochaô 1. properly one that lurked about the altars for the scraps that could be got there, a half-starved beggar, Luc.

2. metaph. one who would do any dirty work to get a meal, a lick-spittle, low jester, buffoon, Ar.:--as adj., bômolochon ti exeurein to invent some ribald trick, id=Ar.; of vulgar music, id=Ar.

Now, tell us that the Spirit OF Christ or Paul was so stupid that he did not know HOW to define singing AND playing in the external sense. In the HEART is a place.

I have listened to Rick Atchley's first DEFENSE of the secret decision to impose instrumental music and Sabbath worship.   It is filled with many untruths and the usual changeling-hireling psychological intimidation by making sure that if YOU object then "we" will see you as a legalistic, sectarian, ANTI-instrumental church of Christer.  He and the "Governing Council" have decided that the Holy Spirit wants them to deliberately sow discord. The members must put INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC and SABAZIANISM over family.  Furthermore, the "laity" must not question the NIKES who have clearly taken the church capive.

USING THE JERUSALEM CONFERENCE TO PROVE THAT HIS AND THE ELDERS "GUIDANCE" BY THE HOLY SPIRIT TO TWIST ALL KNOWN SCRIPTURE AND DELIBERATELY SOW DISCORD.

Appealing to the Apostolic right to make decisions but who listened to the Spirit spoken by Jesus Christ and the prophets, is proof that the twisting of all known evidence is a smoke screen to try to defend what they had decided and planned for for a decade. This really goes back to the pseudo Stone-Campbell Movement and the complicity of once-Christian colleges enabling the 'unity meetings' where they preached the same false doctrine and the "scholars" in the universities had no Biblical, historical or linguistic power to refute them.

I have listened to his first "sermon" with pain at the stabbing form of rhetoric and listed some of the ALWAYS lies and distortions of the Bible and Restoration Movement history which along with all of church history repudiated instrumental performers in the FACE of a Holy God is sinful, perverted and promoting effeminacy.  I will discuss all of the first SET-EM-UP sermon but not necessarily in order. Because all of  the EVIDENCE was hatched from viper eggs I want to look at the one instance where Rick stoops to appeal to the Bible.
This is the Jerusalem conference which he, Joe Beam and others claim gives them the authority to hear from the 'holy spirit person' and get authority to CAST OFF Jewish legalism and, at Richland Hills, cast OUT those who are still Bible literate and ethically matured.

This "apostolic authority" claim makes a mockery of perverting the Bible to justify their treachery. He might find that the Jerusalem got its authority from the Word of God and direct commandments from Jesus Christ in a face-to-face revelation.  They should grasp that Miriam is a patternism for anyone who claims revelation from God.

The Jerusalem Conference, in fact, identifies RicK and his team as the LEGALISTS and TRADITIONALISTS who are opposing well-known prophetic revelation by the Spirit OF Christ, the direct teaching of Jesus, the direct command to go to the Nations, His failure to demand circumcision for salvation, Peter's not checking penises before baptism, Peter's revelation and Paul's full-field-press preaching to the Gentiles who were declared NOT ceremonially impure just because they were Gentiles.  All were acceptable to God who "feared God and worked righteousness."

Rick Atchley forces the Levitical Warrior Musicians into the anti-type of the Holy Place when in Jerusalem they would be executed. These NOISE makers were under the KING and COMMANDERS OF THE ARMY. They served--meaning hard bondage--the priests as they sacrificed tens of thousands of types of Jesus Christ and gainingNO assurance.  Because the Law of Moses and the Monarch was God turning Israel over to WORSHIP THE STARRY HOST (Stephen, Acts 7, etc., etc.).  God warned that the kings would DESTROY THEM and one of the curses would be the GOVERING COUNCIL like Ricks, taking the tithe and taking the young boys to make instruments of chariots (musical) to run before the "oriental potentate's" chariot.

Simeon defines the Qahal, synagogue or church in the wildernes where Moses was preached each Sabbath--even among the Gentiles--by READING the Word of God as the Holy Convocation for many first days and all sevent days to REST, read and rehearse the Word of God.  Rick Atchley DISOBEYS that direct approval which is in his PROOF TEXT for that which Simeon has just proven OUTLAWED if anyone need to be made aware.

Circumcision was a NATIONAL sign of for the Israelites ONLY.  The direct command to SPEAK which excludes music was for everyone until Jesus returns because church is NOTHING LIKE what Rick has fabricated. Church as all of the Bible, history and the demands of the Restoration Movement A School of the Bible.  Literates don't need to be told to sit down and shut up when Jesus followed the only PATTERNISM by standing up to READ and then decently sitting down.

There were no new DECISION MADE which gives Rick and the Governing Council authority to radicaly violate the BIBLE, all known church history and the ABSOLUTE LAW against sowing discord and offending people JUST to prove power.

Not even the Jerusalem council had more power than Richland's SECRET meetings. They just had this here impulse, checked their "bible" and sure enough, nothing to contradict their impulse:

There are several LEGALISTIC PATTERNISM the false teachers love to use: one of them is the Jerusalem conference to give the PREACHER (the apostle in the missional church) and the ELDERS the SAME authority the ONLY Apostles and SENIOR MALES all of whom had been chosen by  Jesus or Elders qualified. They were not DECIDING to change old ANTI-instrumental traditionalism but to INFORM those who brought up the DISCORD that Paul (chosen by Christ) was CORRECT.

They knew that because the literates knew that

1. Prophecy showed that Messiah was for ALL NATIONS.
2. The personal DIRECT COMMAND of Jesus proved it.
3. The example of Peter and Paul confirmed that they had been informed.
4. Finally, Jesus did not COMMAND circumcision which was ONLY to the Israelites</font>

Peter laid out the conditions for salvation at Pentecost and it did not include a penis inspection.

Therefore, Atchley is using the examples of the TROUBLERS IN ZION to justify His OWN troubling in Texas. Assuredly, God is good in that He always MARKS FALSE TEACHERS.

When he slanders with the use of ANTI-instrumental churches of Christ is a PLANNED PLOY of the change agents. By identifying any objectors as ANTI-instrumentalists he uses the old INTIMIDATION which they ALL use with no shame. Rick's association between ANTI-instrumentalists and legalistic BACKWARD BLACKS is NOT pretty.  Jack Evans speaks of the new Coonskins movement. I love it.

The churches of Christ along with ALL CHURCH history for most of the time are doing what they are COMMANDED TO do.

Ricky and the elders are the RUMP DISCORDERS.

Rick is using the same mantra I have read many times and I betcha it was COPIED because no honest Bible student could get AUTHORITY to tromp on the members of the church by simply READING.  And I am not sure how He gets by with blaspheming the Spirit of Christ.

I DID hear some outburst but Ricky wants everyone CIVIL and bend over like they tried on Jesus.  He got his Biblical lies from Farmer's Branch and his PSYCHOLOGICAL SET UP from Joe Beam and others:

Joe Beam Etal: "Now James says, 'Let's compare what's happening to the Bible. Let's see if this that's happening is in contradiction to the word or in harmony to the word.' Now, when they look at it they find that what is happening is not in contradiction to the word but is in harmony to the word and they're now trying to make a decision what they should do....

'It is my judgment therefore that we should not make it difficult for the Gentiles who are turning to God.... Then the apostles and elders with the whole church decided to choose some of their own men and send them back to Antioch with Paul and Barnabas. Now, they write a letter ... and in verse 28 they say this in the letter: 'It seemed good to the Holy Spirit and to us not to burden you with anything beyond the following requirements ...

This is our judgment.' And when they came together in that judgment, they say it is good to the Holy Spirit.
Now, if you read that, they just ascribed
their decision to the Holy Spirit. They gave him the credit for what they decided. (Joe Beam, The Holy Spirit, Nashville Jubilee, 1996, Tape 2).

Now, THAT is what Rick and the Elders have done: they have DECIDED contrary to the Holy Spirit's direct command and CLAIMED that the Holy Spirit GUIDED them into violating DIRECT COMMANDS and going TERMINAL by somewhat boasting about BUSTING UP FAMILES and hurting OLD PEOPLE who know the BIBLE.  I believe that is the REVERS of the BLASPHEM OF THE HOLY SPIRIT and I say that it is.

There you have it: you get an impulse to write a book or SOW DISCORD. You check and find that there is no legalistic command which says, "Thou shalt not DELIVERATELY SOW DISCORD and violate DIRECT COMMANDS and ADD." Therefore, "it seems good to me, the SENIOR PASTOR to the Holy Spirit that I can claim direct inspiration to say as as others have said, less SUBTILLY: ''Get OVER it or get OUT."

I think that the Holy Spirit spoke to them (since they were literate) through Leviticus 17 and 18 for Gentiles living among the Israelites. Remember that the prophets were guided by God:

But, we know that the Spirit was not a little fella small enough to fit into Ricky's head: it was the SPIRIT of Christ which HAS SPOKEN in the Old and New Testament: to need a LATTER DAY REVELATION is to blaspheme the Holy Spirit by declaring that Jesus Christ was NOT COMPETENT to ordain the EKKLESIA (school of the Bible) able to be TRANSMORGAFIED into a "theater for unholy entertainment" for the Mother of Harlots in Revelation 18 which defines the speakers, singers and musicians as SORCERERS.

Of which salvation the prophets have enquired and searched diligently, who PROPHESIED of the grace that should come unto you: 1 Pet 1:10
Searching what, or what manner of time the
Spirit of Christ which was in them did signify, when it testified beforehand the sufferings of Christ, and the glory that should follow. 1 Pet 1:11

There is NO decision between ANTI-instrumentalism and MUSICAL SORCERY.  There is NO TRADITIONALISM: the Jews ONLY were commanded to be circumcised and THEREFORE the LEGALISTIC PATTERNISM is a big fat lie.  It is a case of RICK as the TROUBLER and LEGALIST (music IS so defined as WORK) who wants to REVERSE the role.

Simeon hath declared how God at the first did visit the Gentiles, to take out of them a people for his name. Acts 15:14
And to this
agree the words of the prophets; as it is written, Acts 15: 15

After this I will return, and will build again the tabernacle of David, which is fallen down; and I will build again the ruins thereof, and I will set it up: Acts 15: 16
That the residue of men might seek after the Lord, and all the Gentiles, upon whom my name is called, saith the Lord, who doeth all these things. Acts 15: 17

Known unto God
are all his works from the beginning of the world. Acts 15: 18

Now, even Solomon grasped that "God is not worshipped in housed built for human hands." Therefore, the temple was not for worship: in fact the Temple dedication 'music" marked God "going into exile" and removing access to God, the Word and Grace under the Mercy Seat.

Stephen got killed in part for teaching:

God promised David a TABERNACLE or TENT.
But, Solomon built God a HOUSE
But, God does not dwell in houses built by human hands.

What God rebuilt is the Tabernacle of the "spiritual" David which is the church which has no central sanctuary, not sacrifices and by definition no sacrificial noise which is never called music. If you use the sacrificial system as an approach to God you must return to Jerusalem and all of the singers and priests must be out of Levi.  But, the Church of Christ was not founded by one out of Levi and you cannot restore the cursed system of slaughtering innocent "types" of your god.

As for as the Conference is concerned, does any LITERATE person see ANY reason for the Circumcision to NEED a supernatural ACT of the Spirit Person to make decisions the Spirit OF Christ had already made? No. There is NO decision to be made: all we have to do is to tell Ricky and the WORLD that HE and the elders are trying to impose Levitical Warrior Musicians and SACRIFICIAL NOISE which had ratonale ONLY in Canaan, ONLY in Jerusalem, ONLY outside the TEMPLE. And not in the vilest pagan temple could singers and musicians enter into the Holy Places of which the temple was a TYPE of the body or church of Christ.

Simon being Biblically literate got his message from the SPIRIT OF CHRIST when He read and KNEW the prophets and he had heard it directly from Jesus Christ.  The NAME of the "another Comforter" says John is "Jesus Christ the Righteous."  How DARE those John Calvin calls FANATICS claim that they have been GUIDED into FURTHER TRUTH.  This again is PSYCHOLOGICAL INTIMITATION: If you question the elders (meaning the PASTOR) then you are questioning the Holy Spirit and YOU DARE NOT TOUCH GOD'S ANNOINTEDS. Rick has thrown enough LAND MINES in the first PSYCHOLOGICAL SET UP to make it necessary for TRULY BRAVE MEN to TEACH him some bible 101a.

Simeon speaks what GOD had ALREADY revealed and He dare not quesiton the ESTABLISHED FACT:

Wherefore my sentence [judgment] is, that we trouble not them, which from among the Gentiles are turned to God: Acts 15: 19
However, Rick Atchley has decided or PASSED JUDGMENT against those who pay his wage.  He had decided that he SHOULD trouble the members EVEN if it breaks up families because THEY must put Rick's decision (wholly) AHEAD of their family.  I think his IRrationale is that the ANTI-instrumentalists are TROUBLING othere by NOT providing an instrumental CHURCH for them to use at the widow's expense.  You do remember that God promises to send STRONG DELUSIONS and that will be through STRONG DELUDERS.

Simeon's JUDGMENT is:

But that we write unto them, that they abstain from pollutions of idols, and from fornication, and from things strangled, and from blood. Acts 15:20
Now, if Rick can TROUBLE his enablers by adding INSTRUMENTS which are clearly marks of "the idolatry of talent" and troubling to most spirits, why is it that he cannot IMPOSE the worship of idols, defend fornication and drink blood at the Lord's Supper?  What kind of Holy Spirit revelation does Rick think they need to advise the Gentiles against immorality and offending the Jews and most others?

Simeon was an APOSTLE: Rick is not. NO decision about CIRCUMCISION was made by  the Apostles and Elders OF WHICH Rick and the Richland apostles are NOT. The ACT was to PREACH the Word as it had been delivered to them otherwise any ELDER is a WOLF and that is bad.

Those imposed CUSTOMS which were common to most NON-pagans and the Gentiles and especially the Greek World had lived up to much of the Mosaic Moral Law forever.  Why would not this TROUBLE the Gentiles.

Now, HERE is where Ricky has had a hand grenade blow up in his face because Peter calls CORRUPTERS of the Word "those who sell learning at Retail."

Now, HERE is where we have a RESTATEMENT of the DIRECT COMMAND for the Qahal, synagogue or "church in the Wilderness" where blowing instruments and 'making a joyful noise before the Lord' was OUTLAWED.  This were reserved for SPIRITUAL WARFARE to panic the enemy.  

For Moses of old time hath in every city them that PREACH him,
being READ in the synagogues every sabbath day. Acts 15: 21

Tertullian repudiating the trinity of THREE GODS shows why the Israelites and Egyptians knew the same texts:

Now in ancient times the people we call Jews bare the name of Hebrews, and so both their writings and their speech were Hebrew. But that the understanding of their books might not be wanting, this also the Jews supplied to Ptolemy; for they gave him seventy-two interpreters-men whom the philosopher Menedemus, the well-known asserter of a Providence, regarded with respect as sharing in his views.

The same account is given by Aristus. So the king left these works unlocked to all, in the Greek language. [Kaye, p. 291. See Elucidation I. Also Vol. II., p. 334.]

To this day, at the temple of Serapis, the libraries of Ptolemy are to be seen, with the identical Hebrew originals in them.
..........The Jews, too, read them publicly.
..........Under a tribute-liberty, they are in the habit of going to hear them every Sabbath.
..........Whoever gives ear will find God in them;
..........whoever takes pains to understand, will be compelled to believe.

The Greeks would understand that the Sabazianism or 'Dionysus' worship imposed on them at Mount Sinai because of musical idolatry, were the same as those at the temple of SerAPIS where Apis is the golden calf representing the Egyptian trinity.

TO BAD THAT RICHLAND DOES NOT HAVE AN ELDER WHO COULD FIND OUT WHAT IS DRIVING OUT THE YOUTH:

Let no man despise thy youth; but be thou an example of the believers, in WORD in conversation, in charity, in spirit, in faith, in purity. 1 Tim 4:12Till I come, give attendance to [public] READING to exhortation, to doctrine1 Tim 4:13

Students could READ in the synagogue with the elder as OVERSEER meaning that he made sure that the text was read AS revealed. Because sermonizing was OUTLAWED for the synagogue, there was no need for theological training: in fact Jesus fired the "doctors of the Law who took away the key to knowledge.

 RICK has just heard the REAL Apostles tell him and others that churches are FAILING because of PERFORMANCE PREACHERS whom Acts 15 has JUST FIRED as Jesus fired the "doctors of the Law because they take away the key to knowledge. I suggest that if they get a faithful preacher who does EXPOSITORY TEACHING by reading the Word and like Jesus have the UNCOMMON DECENCY TO SIT DOWN, the faithful members will return and pay off the UNLAWFUL and UNGODLY debt.


Now, here is another decision ELDERS can make: they can obey Jesus and refuse to pay anyone who does not GO OUT and deliver the message. Rick missed that one too.  Nothing here about having a grand meeting to deliver the message. Huh?
Then pleased it the apostles and elders, with the whole church, to send chosen men of their own company to Antioch with Paul and Barnabas; namely, Judas surnamed Barsabas, and Silas, chief men among the brethren: Acts 15: 22
WHY did the ELDERS not get up and defend there decisions?

And they wrote letters by them after this manner; The apostles and elders and brethren send greeting unto the brethren which are of the Gentiles in Antioch and Syria and Cilicia: Acts 15: 23

For it seemed good to the Holy Ghost, and to us, to lay upon you no greater burden than these necessary things; Acts 15: 28

The Holy Ghost as the Spirit OF Christ even in the Old Testament (1 Pet 1:11; Rev 19:10) was the source: the Spirit who identified Himself as "Jesus of Nazareth" to Paul did not need to do further revealing. Even so, Rick is not an apostle although we understand the term 13th apostle and the "missional ministry" heresy assumes people to be apostles.

That ye abstain from meats offered to idols, and from blood, and from things strangled, and from fornication: from which if ye keep yourselves, ye shall do well. Fare ye well. Acts 15: 29
Jesus promised the APOSTLES ONLY to "guide them into all truth." He did not promise this to RICK or the ELDERS in Texas. The Gentiles are to do GOOD and observe the dietary practices of those in their midst.   Now WHICH ones of these would RICK like to OBSOLETE along with CIRCUMCISON in order to ATTRACT more miscellaneous crowd looking for entertainment.

By learning the INSPIRED TEXT every Sabbath in synagogues, they were GUIDED by the Holy Spirit. This was in contrast to the Pharisees whom Rick seems DETERMINED to lump himself with along with adulterating the Word by "selling ignorance at Retail."  Here is exactly what Rick is preaching without caring whom it offends and defining the PHARISEES:
"They interpreted the Law according to its spirit;
when in the course of time a law had been outgrown or superseded by changing conditions,
they gave it a new and more acceptable meaning,

seeking scriptural support for their actions through a ramified system of hermeneutics.

It was due to this progressive tendency of the Pharisees that their interpretation of the Torah
continued to develop and has remained a living force in Judaism

Catholic Encyclopedia Pharisees

By quoting Isaiah and Ezekiel Jesus identified the Scribes and Pharisees as hypocrites as "performance speakers, singers and instrument players."  As well, all arousal singing and musical terms include the idea of enchantment and that is why John in Revelation 18 called them sorcerers.

No Jew was so ignorant or evil that he tried to INTRUDE an organ in a synagogue until the year 1815.  Even then, they hired a Gentile organist because PLAYING INSTRUMENTS on the Sabbath was considered WORD and therefore VIOLATED the Sabbath.

The word SPEAK in fuller resources OUTLAWS poetry or METRICAL language. The language of Cantillation used accent marks for emphasis but was NOT metrical. It was considered dishonorable to speak to a "god" in metrical language and the Jews never did.  It further outlaws music: even POETRY was spoken:

2.  poięsis ps. mere poetry, without music, i. e. Epic poetry, opposite  Lyric. The word is ANTI-organon

orgănum  an implement, instrument, engine of any kind, Of military or architectonic engines, Of hydraulic engines, an organ, water-organ: organa hydraulica, Of a church-organ.

It includes the word ERGON pointing to "a hard piece of work" or the "shock and awe" of religious rituals called orge which were orgies.  Or the instruments do the work of warfare which defines David's use and the meaning of the instrumental Psalms.

This ORGAN was handled by Jubal who is defined fully in The Book of Enoch and others as SEDUCED by Satan to use Choirs, musical instruments, sexually-attractive clothing and jewelry.  This is said to be the CAUSE of all of the FALLS from Grace from which one could not recover.

I. Trop., an implement, instrument

Gen 4:21 And his brother's name was Jubal: he was the father of all such as handle the harp and organ.
H8610 manipulate, figuratively to use unwarrantably:--catch, handle, (lay, take) hold (on, over), stop,  surely, surprise, take.

H8609 tâphar taw-far' A primitive root; to sew: (women that) sew (together).
This was the practice of the women prophetesses who sewed pillows as symbols of availability [like waving hands and clapping] and they were also known as sorceresses.  They "took souls captive" by making them THINK that they were flying.  Ezekiel would be a good study when you fire the unlawful preacher. I will tell some YOUTH where to read.

This is also a KEY to the concept that the women prophetessed SEWED or STITCHED words together to make songs.
H8608  tâphaph taw-faf' A primitive root; to drum, that is, play (as) on the tambourine: taber, play with timbrels.

Any of the old widows from the ANTI-instrumental group could probably tell the hireling that if JUBAL sued musical INSTRUMENTS meaning WITHOUT AUTHORITY then Ricky has to TRUMP Moses and the Spirit OF Christ.

This gave rise to the Tabret and to Topheth which became the NAME of HELL where God beats people and burns them to the beat of Lucifer's wind, string and percussion instruments.

2 Chr 34:[10]  They delivered it into the hand of the workmen who had the oversight of the house of Yahweh; and the workmen who labored in the house of Yahweh gave it to mend and repair the house; [11] even to the carpenters and to the builders gave they it, to buy hewn stone, and timber for couplings, and to make beams for the houses which the kings of Judah had destroyed. [12]  The men did the work faithfully: and the overseers of them were Jahath and Obadiah, the Levites, of the sons of Merari; and Zechariah and Meshullam, of the sons of the Kohathites, to set it forward; and [others of] the Levites, all who were skillful [scio] with instruments of music. [13]  Also they were over the bearers of burdens, and set forward all who did the work in every manner of service: and of the Levites there were scribes, and officers, and porters.

Now it is not a bad point in the story that the goddess did this out of annoyance because of the ugly distortion of her features;
        but as a
matter of fact it is more likely that it was because education in flute-playing
        has no
effect on the intelligence,

        whereas we
attribute science and art to Athena

And since we reject professional education in the instruments and in performance  (and we count performance in competitions as professional,  for the performer does not take part in it  for his own improvement, but for his hearers'  pleasure, and that a vulgar pleasure, owing  to which we do not consider performing to be proper for free men, but somewhat menial; and indeed performers do become vulgar, since the object at which they aim is a low one, as vulgarity in the audience usually influences the music, so that it imparts to the artists  who practise it with a view to suit the audience a special kind of personality,  and also of bodily frame because of the movements required)--we must therefore give some consideration to tunes and rhythms, and to the question whether for educational purposes we must employ all the tunes and all the rhythms or make distinctions; and next, whether for those who are working at music for education we shall lay down the same regulation, or ought we to establish some other third one (inasmuch as we see that the factors in music are melody and rhythm, and it is important to notice what influence each of these has upon education), and whether we are to prefer music with a good melody or music with a good rhythm.

Strabo Geography 10.3.7

In [10.3.7] Strabo continues, "The accounts which are more remotely related, however, to the present subject, but are wrongly, on account of the identity of the names, brought into the same connection by the historians--I mean those accounts which, although they are called "Curetan History" and "History of the Curetes," just as if they were the history of those Curetes who lived in Aetolia and Acarnania, not only are different from that history, but are more like the accounts of the Satyri, Sileni, Bacchae, and Tityri;

for the Curetes (clergy or priests), like these,
are called
genii or ministers of gods by those who have
handed down to us the
Cretan and the Phrygian traditions,
which are interwoven with certain
sacred rites,
some mystical, the others connected in part
with the rearing of the
child Zeus in Crete and
inpart with the
orgies in honor of the mother of the gods
which are celebrated in Phrygia and in the region of the Trojan Ida.

When Paul demanded that the SENIOR MALES lead the assembly he said and WITHOUT WRATH.  Paul to those with eyes and ears was EXCLUDING ORGE or ORGY as WRATH.  John assigns this to the Mother of Harlots (Rev 17) and calls the singers and instrument players SORCERERS  (Rev 18) who HAD deceived the whole world.

In the Babylonian Tablets and Biblical Commentary parallel to The Book of Enoch, GENUN or GENII is the composite of Jubal (who handled instruments without authority), Jabal, Tubal- Cain and Naamah the enchantress.  Because it is said that Cain (from a musical note and a lance) was OF that wicked one, scholars understood that SATAN taught the Cainites the skills to seduce people away from the Living Word and caused the FALLS

Sileni: Greek woodland gods or spirits, closely connected to the satyrs. They were occasionally referred to as being half-man half-horse, in stead of half-man half-goat. The Sileni were portrayed as lechers and drunkards [new winskinners], bald-headed and pot-bellied, with thick lips and stub noses, and with the tails and ears of a horse.
        The
flute and lyre are their attributes. [MARKS of the beast: the word beast used by John includes PAN]
The Sileni can often be found in the company of
Dionysus. Later mentioned as only one Silenus, the tutor and companion of Dionysus.

THE SATYROI were rustic fertility Daimones (Spirits) of the wilderness and countryside. They were usually associated with the gods Dionysos, Rheia [Zoe], Gaia, Hermes and Hephaistos [Lucifer]; and were said to mate with the Nymphai in the mountains.Satyroi were depicted as animal-like men with the tail of a horse, the ears of an ass, upturned pug noses, reclining hair-lines, and erect members.
As companions of Dionysos, they were depicted draped in animal skins, drinking, dancing, playing tambourines and flutes (the instruments of the Dionysian orgy) and sporting with the Nymphai Bakkhai. They were also frequently shown in vase paintings, dancing around the goddess Gaia (Earth), rising up from the fertile earth. Other closely related Daimones included: the Panes (goat-legged satyroi), and the Seilenoi (elderly satyroi). Child satyrs were known as Satyriskoi.

Dionysus was in fact from Egypt and the rising up to PLAY or SPORT in musical idolatry at Mount Sinai lost them GRACE and they were turned over or abandoned to worship the starry host.

OUTLAWED: Musical performance as Works-Focused LEGALISM.

Strabo Geography 10.3.16

Of the rites of Dionysus condemned by Paul in First Corinthians and the wine drinking musical worship in Ephesus proving that INSTRUMENTS are MACHINES for doing hard work to worship the demons.  Remembering that Zeus and Dionysus were part of the Abomination of Desolation in the Temple and that the clergy were more attracted to Dionysus than Jehovah because they were mostly KENITES or CAINITES and not Israelites.

Also resembling these rites are the Cotytian and the Bendideian rites practiced among the Thracians, among whom the Orphic rites had their beginning. Now the Cotys who is worshipped among the Edonians, and also the instruments used in her rites, are mentioned by Aeschylus; for he says,

O adorable Cotys among the Edonians, and ye who hold mountain-ranging instruments;

And he mentions immediately afterwards the attendants of Dionysus: one, holding in his hands the bombyces (reed flute),toilsome work of the turner's chisel, fills full the fingered melody, the call that brings on frenzy, while another causes to resound the bronze-bound cotylae. (cupped cymbals or vases)  "and again, stringed instruments raise their shrill cry, and frightful mimickers from some place unseen bellow like bulls,and the semblance of drums, as of subterranean thunder, rolls along, a terrifying sound.

Note:In connection with this bold use of "semblance" (eikôn) by Aeschylus, note Strabo's studied use of "resembles" (eoike, twice in this paragraph) and "unlikely" (apeikos). Others either translate eikôn "echo," or omit the thought.

The sounding brass (echoing) in First Corinthians thirteen was a Greek military instrument or hollow vase. It is directly related to the Chaldean which is a synonymn for astrologer. It was used like the familiar spirit or "old wineskin" of the witch of Endor to call up a ghost from the subterranean world. By whispering and murmuring into the skin the client heard mysterous sounds which were interpreted as from the gods. At the same time, it was used as a musical instrument or weapon to try to panic the enmy with the noise.

OUTLAWED: by the Bible and most historical scholars and founders of denominations. SPEAK where the Bible speaks and be silent when the Bible NEVER sings.
Eph 5: [19]WEB loquentes vobismet ipsis in psalmis et hymnis et canticis spiritalibus cantantes et psallentes in cordibus vestris Domino
Loquor  [Sanscr. lap-, to talk, whisper; to speak, talk, say (in the lang. of common life, in the tone of conversation; cf. Quint. 9, 4, 10; 11, 3, 45). indicate or express clearly By definition that EXCLUDES singing.
Logos. The ACT of speaking is logik-os , ę, on, ( [logos] ) the organs of speech
A. of or for speaking or speech, logikę, hę,
        speech,
        opposite to mousikę

Reprobate or CAST away is Adokim-os disreputable, mousa

OUTLAWED: Musica mousika, the art of music, music; acc. to the notions of the ancients, comic and dramatic poetry, temporibus tantum
Same as: Magice- , e-s, f., = magika (sc. techna), the magic art, magic, sorcery medicinam [dico magicenque, magices factio
ALL SPEAK words specificially EXCLUDE poetry and music--the Bible was not metrical or tuneful--just as literacy 101aa might suspect:

Psilos IV. logos ps. bare language, i. e. prose, Opposite to poetry which is clothed in the garb of metre, Pl.Mx.239c, Phld.Mus.p.97K.; more freq. in pl., “ps. logoiPl.Lg.669d; Opposite ta metra,

2. poiēsis ps. mere poetry, without music, i. e. Epic poetry, Opposite Lyric ( en ōdē), Pl.Phdr.278c; so “aneu organōn ps. logoiId.Smp.215c, ; ps. phōnē the ordinary sound of the voice, Opposite singing ( ōdikē), D.H. Comp.11.

If you PLAY an instrument--NEVER COMMANDED--it is unaccompanied by the voice, Opposite meta melōdias, psilos aulētēs one who plays unaccompanied on the flute (cf. psilokitharistēs),
If you PLAY an instrument SPEAKING something important was excluded.  Not even david banged on his harp used more as a tuned percussion instrument WHILE he was singing.  Singing TO a harp meant to pluck the string and match your voice to the sound: SINGING in a tuneful sense never happened until after the invention of the organ still not used to ACCOMPANY the reading or chanting the commanded text.

Therefore, as all pagan music and PRAISE SINGING makes absolute THE definition of LEGALISTIC.  The word NOMOS or feed the LAW was the practice of the MUSES who worshipped Apollo or Apollyon who has landed in Texas.

OUTLAWED: Hypocrites (Jesus marks rhetoricians, singers, instrumentalists)
                         Sectarians or Heretics.

John Locke defines sectarianism and heresy this:

Nor does it signify anything for them to say that their confessions and symbols
are agreeable to Scripture and to the analogy of faith;

    for if they be conceived in the
express words of Scripture,
    there can be no question about them, because those things are
    acknowledged by all Christians to be
    of divine inspiration and therefore fundamental.

The spirit OF Christ warned against the Lying Pen of the Scribes who defined the God-abandoned Monarchy to make it God approved: and that's good enough to fool ALL of the doctors of the law or fiction writing like "lyrics." 

All historical scholars defend the concept of Commands, Examples and Inferences. The church as school of the Bible is defined simply by Paul in Romans 15. To that Jesus instituted, Paul defined and the church practiced the Lord's Supper on the FIRST DAY of the Week.  As the SABBATH was a MARK between the pagan worshipers and the Israelites who RESTED in their homes or local gatherings, the LORD'S DAY is a mark between those who enjoy the REST of Jesus Christ without imposing the WORKS of music which were OUTLAWED even under the Law of Moses.

Well, perhaps the Holy Spirit gave them credit for what He decided. There wasn't a "wee, little person" sitting on their shoulders. Rather, they had the mind of Christ in their mind which Jesus promised to them as His Spiritual presence (Jn 14:18 which you will not find quoted on any book on the Holy Spirit person.)

It SEEMS like the ANTI-instrumentalists have LITERACY on their side after all.  However, once you decide to destroy friendships and families I am certain that the DRIVEN PURPOSE is not a HOLY spirit.

This firest SERMON is filled with many lies and what I see as PSYCHOLOGICALLY VIOLENT warnes that NO ONE should tamper with God's ANNOINTEDS.  Fact is, elders have the authority to "teach that which has been taught" and people OBEY by listening to what THEY (and not preachers) READ and exhort for the BIBLE and 'watch the outcome of their lives.'  This warning has all of the earmarks of a cult and I suspect that MOST are too timid to object.  This is YOUR test: We already KNOW that Jesus ejected the "doctors of the Law" and CAST OUT the musical minstrels LIKE DUNG.
