The Beast Mother of Harlots

The BEAST from the EARTH exerciseth all the POWER of the first BEAST before him,
        and causeth the earth and them which dwell therein
        to worship the first BEAST, whose deadly wound was healed. Rev. 13:12

CONTRARY AND ANTITHETICAL to the worship of God,

Rick.Atchley.Acts.17.25.God.Not.Worshipped.Mens.Hand.html

The BEAST has only one meaning. Expanded below:

g5175 nâchâsh naw-khawsh' From H5172 ; a snake (from its hiss):—serpent. means magic, sorcery, divination, both a diviner and a coppersmith

H5172 nâchash naw-khash' A primitive root; properly to hiss, that is, whisper a (magic) spell; generally to prognosticate:— X certainly, divine, enchanter, (use) X enchantment, learn by experience, X indeed, diligently observe.  the verb nachash always means to enchant, fascinate, bewitch; or of one having and using occult knowledge. See Gen. 30:27; 44:5, 15. Lev. 19:26. Deut. 18:10. 1Kings 20:33. 2Kings 17:17; 21:6. 2Chron. 33:6. So also is the noun used in Num. 23:23; 24:1

SERPO , of things, to move slowly or imperceptibly, to creep along, proceed gradually,
“exsistit sacer ignis et urit corpore serpens,” slowly spreading,  canam, qui leniter

tibicen  “cithara,” crowing of a cock: “galli victi silere solent, canere victores,” to crow,
to practice magic, to charm, Galli is a word for a Catamite: priest of the Mother Godesses.

"Kenite" is a rendition of Hebrew According to Gesenius, the name is derived from the name Cain (קַיִן Qayin). According to A. H. Sayce, the name `Kenite', Qéní, is identical an Aramaic word meaning `a smith', which in its turn is a cognate of Hebrew Quayin, with the meaning `a lance'

X.Mem.1.6.13  Xen. Mem. 1.6.13

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.

Sophis-tēs , ou, o(, A. master of one's craft, adept, expert, of diviners, Hdt.2.49; of poets, “meletan sophistais prosbalon” Pi.I.5(4).28, cf.

Ath.14.632c: with modal words added, “hoi s. tōn hierōn melōn” [melody in the holy place--a death sentence for any Levite]

Instrumental Music in Worship  is a sin without redemption. The singing and harp-playing prostitute in the garden of Eden wholly seduced Eve.  The Word is filled with warnings until Romans 17 when the old Babylon Mother of Harlots uses self-speakers, singers and instrument players: John called them SORCERERS and said they will be cast alive into the lake of fire.  He is Apollo, Abaddon or Apollyon and his musical worship team is the LOCUSTS which for the elect means the MUSES.  We have not liberty to be nice:

THE WORLD:

We don't invent "Spiritual songs."

The Apostles had the Mind of Christ guiding them:

1 Cor 2.[14] Now the natural man doesn't receive the things of God's Spirit, for they are foolishness to him, and he can't know them, because they are spiritually discerned.

If you wish, you may pick those "instrument" passages for burning animals or children which God did not command. That is because of musical idolatry they had already been sentenced to captivity and death "beyond Babylon."

1. There is no command, example or remote inference that God called the godly people into assembly for group singing with or without instruments.
   
2. Scripture from Genesis to Revelation along with contemporaneous writers and historic scholars repudiate the Jewish-pagan use of instrumental machines as sourced ONLY from the Devil to silence the WORD.  LOGOS is defined as the REGULATIVE PRINCIPLE and is opposite to rhetoric, singing, instruments or dramatic performance.
3. After the fall into musical idolatry at Mount Sinai and God turned the Levites over to worship the Starry host. Christ (the Rock) ordained the  Holy Convocation or Church in the wilderness for the godly people quarantined FROM the not-commanded sacrificial system. This was a Word-of-God assembly and outlawed "vocal or instrumental rejoicing" which excluded what we call sermonizing.  John Calvin's affirmation.
   
4. God provided that Jesus as the LOGOS or REGULATING lord SPOKE the LOGOS MEANING REGULATIVE PRINCIPLE. This was delivered by God's BREATH (spirit) WITHOUT METRON: a word usually associated with musical melody.
         In agreement with that, there is no Biblical text written in METER because according to Philo, "the gods of the pagans exploit this weakness of men. For the sake of a better effect, and with the intention of more easily cheating their devotees, they have set their lies to melodies, rhythms and meters."
           In agreement with this, LOGOS is defined as the opposite of personal examples, poetry or music.
   
5. The command is to "use one mind and one mouth" using "that which is written for our learning" and the "Comfort of the Scripture."
   
6. This was so clear to EVERYONE that singing as an ACT to violate the command to use Scripture when imposed in the year 373 and split the east and west churches.
   
7. Further proof: there was no congregational singing in church and no singing of the TEXT until after Calvin permitted some psalms (only) to be radically REwritten to fit a simple melody.  This was to be SUNG (only) and in UNISON (only). Melody as tunefulness belongs to the 19th century.
   
8. The first attempt to JUSTIFY the split the Disciples-Christian churches was as late as 1878 when PSALLO was grasped to COMMAND instruments.  Of course, PSALLO has no musical content: if you SMITE a harp string with your FINGERS and never with a PLECTRUM you sound a note but do not make music.  Psallo and SOP have the same root meaning. You cannot psallo a wind or percussion instrument.
   
9. Churches of Christ continued John Calvin's plea to RESTORE THE CHURCH OF CHRIST by removing everything not required to teach the word by men who gained their living by another profession. hire paid for panderism and sorcery.  John Calvin would have understood the LOGOS concept to be OPPOSITE of poetry or music and meaning the REGULATIVE PRINCIPLE.
   The church should be restored to true order, and its most corrupt condition reformed, according to the strict standard of the gospel
   
10. Alexander Campbell denied that their COULD be unity before or following the 1832 handshake.  He knew that the Reformed Baptists held nothing in common with the Stoneites. And Barton may have boasted too soon, he denied that he could be united with the Campbell view.
    
11. Therefore, the JUSTIFICATION for a hostile takeover is based on Churches of Christ refusing to be COUNTED as part of the "organ and society party" in 1906. This seems to be the unforgiveable sin.  The published papers deny people the right NOT to use instruments and the right to teach or preach the clear Biblical and historical practice. Robert Ballard: to refuse to PERMIT that which God Himslef has (P93) SAID TO USE is flagrant sin
12. H. Leo Boles claimed some fraternal feelings up until 1849 but Alexander Campbell denied that there could be any unity which involved some organization before 1832. The handshake in 1832 was ridiculed by Campbell. After 1832 Campbell denied that there was or could be any unity.  When the Disciples-Christians fell into the William Miller return of Jesus in 1844, Campbell began to repudiate ANY literal millennium.
    

We have ever reason to suspect those who find positive commands for instruments while claiming that there is nothing in the Bible which denies their right to spread the instrumental gospel.

The PATTERN is defined by the Gift of Christ of vocational elders as the Pastor-Teachers over the flock which they have gathered: both presbyter and kerusso are defined as HERALDS who have no authority but to "teach that which has been taught." Athenian Law permitted no poetic, musical or philosopher person to serve as a HERALD: their fatal flaw was that they always changed the crucial message and always charged on the receiving end.

Christ in the wilderness defined the Church of Christ (the Rock) both inclusively and exclusively.  The synagogue quarantined the godly people to their isolated villages so that they could not attend the Cosmic Worship of the stars on the seventh day: both the seventh day for people to serve the clergy and the tithe were defined on clay tablets. 

An Ekklesia-Synagogue of Christ does not have A Pastor.
An Ekklesia-Synagogue of Christ does not have LEADERS other than vocational elders and deacons.
A Church of Christ does not have a STAFF which means Professionals to usurp the Body at work.
A Church of Christ does not engage in BUSINESS.
A Church of Christ's children do NOT pay temple taxes: Jesus paid them all
A Church of Christ does not have a source of lawful income to pay people to attend, in the words of Christ in Ezekiel, workshops of evil where it's prophets and prophesiers "seal words one from another" and go home to sell them as truth.  See Ezekiel 13 Women Prophesiers exercising authentia authority--both erotic and murderous.
A Disciple of Christ is commanded NOT to go out where people are claiming to be the kingdom: the kingdom of God is within you.
A Disciple of Christ attends a School of the Word (Christ, Jesus, Paul, Peter and the Campbells).
A kingdom of Christ or his church does NOT come with observation meaning religious services. Religious Observations are defined as Lying Wonders, impure religion or Lading the Burden Jesus died to remove.

Commercial religion began and will end in "Babylon."  God rescued Israel from Egypt by pure Grace and offered them The Book of The Covenant of Grace: this is the only spiritual covenant offered by God in Christ to Abraham.

Beginning: See Nimrod and the Babylonian Musical Worship Team aroused again in Revelation 17 )
Ending:      NACC 2013 Revelation 19-20 conveniently skipping chapters 17-18

Looking backward Moses will record Jacob cursing the Levites as killers and warn people NOT to covenant nor assemble with them.  LEVITE is more than descendants of Levi and that is why as instrumental soothsayers or sorcerers they had NO INHERITANCE in Isreal.  They were "burnt" priests of infant burning in Egypt and in Jerusalem.

               

The people refused to hear God and demanded a human mediator. They would be blind and deaf until The Lion of the Tribe of Judah came.  Their refusal to LISTEN let them assume that God was SILENT.  While they were refusing to listen God commanded the REST (sabbath) on the first day of the week: this was the antithesis of the Babylonian "worship" rituals where the laity served the clergy.

While god was PROHIBITING any disturbance on the REST day to be devoted to Rest, Reading and Rehearsing the Word. That is what the never-musical commands to Speak that which is written for our learning and MEDITATING (Mele not MELOS) IN the heart.

These virtual Egyptians rose up in musical idolatry. The Book of the Law was given to legislate for the lawless and the nation was sentenced BEYOND BABYLON which meant no return or no redemption.  Musical idolatry of the triad was WITHOUT redemption because it told God then and now that "We will NOT listen to your word."

THE SIN WITHOUT REDEMPTION AND THE GREAT DIVIDE AT MOUNT SINAI

You have to follow Moses and do a Flash Back to explain the DESTINY of those who had gone beyond redemption back to Babylon because they choose to entertain themselves (the only effect of music called sorcery) which was the natural delusion of those who REFUSED to listen to God.  This was a Prophetic Type to be repeated about now where the Babylon Mother of Harlots (Revelation 17) rises again using the effeminate as speakers, singers and instrument players.  John said that THEY had deceived the whole world therefore the SOUNDS of the wind, string and percussion instruments would MARK their removal as A Church of Christ along with the LAMPS or the "seven spirits of Christ" (Isaiah 11) all forms of divine knowledge.  The next event is that they are or will be cast alive into the Lake of fire because they are SORCERERS.  Another Prophetic Type by the Spirit OF Christ in Isaiah 30 (more below) is that the wind, string and percussion instruments are the SOUNDS of God driving His enemies into "Hell."

Notes on Serpent and Devil Worship
Notes on Serpent and Devil Worship TWO

Remembering that after the musical fall from grace at Mount Sinai Moses their sentence "beyond Babylon" was conditional but God knew that they would never cease worshiping the Serpent.  Josephus claims that the Jacob-cursed and God-abandoned Levites were Brahmin.  They were fire and sun worshipers even in Egypt where their instrumental noise accompanied the burning of infants to Molech.

(3) Chamman ("sun-image") chamman, the King James Version "images," "idols"; the Revised Version (British and American) "sun-images" (Leviticus 26:30; 2 Chronicles 14:5; 34:4,7; Isaiah 17:8; 27:9; Ezekiel 6:4,6):

This worship may originally have come from Babylonia, but the reverence of the sun under the name Baal-hamman had long been common in Palestine before Joshua and the Israelites entered the country. These sun-images were probably obelisks or pillars connected with the worship of some local Baal. The chariot and horses of the sun, mentioned (2 Kings 23:11) as having an honored place at the western entrance of the Jerusalem Temple, represented not a local but a foreign cult. In Babylonian temples, sacrifices were made to the sun-chariot, which seems to have had a special significance in time of war (Pinches, HDB, IV, 629; see also CHARIOTS OF THE SUN).

Nachash "snake, serpent" with nshk "bite" provides a link between two verses in Amos speaking of the impossibility of escape Amos 5:19 and 9:3 - nachash often either carries overtones of the serpent in Eden (Gen 3) or of the mythology of Canaanite cultures (Is 27:1).

Nashak (h5391) naw-shak'; a prim. root; to strike with a sting (as a serpent); fig., to oppress with interest on a loan: - bite, lend upon usury.

"The verb nachash always means to enchant, fascinate, bewitch; or of one having and using occult knowledge. See Gen. 30:27; 44:5, 15. Lev. 19:26. Deut. 18:10. 1Kings 20:33. 2Kings 17:17; 21:6. 2Chron. 33:6. So also is the noun used in Num. 23:23; 24:1."

Chapter XI.-How Great are the Benefits Conferred on Man Through the Advent of

Contemplate a little, if agreeable to you, the divine beneficence.

The first man, when in Paradise, sported free, because he was the child of God but when he succumbed to pleasure (for the serpent allegorically signifies pleasure crawling on its belly, earthly wickedness nourished for fuel to the flames), was as a child seduced by lusts, and grew old in disobedience; and by disobeying his Father, dishonoured God.

Such was the influence of pleasure. Man, that had been free by reason of simplicity, was found fettered to sins. The Lord then wished to release him from his bonds, and clothing Himself with flesh-O divine mystery!-vanquished the serpent, and enslaved the tyrant death; and, most marvellous of all, man that had been deceived by pleasure, and bound fast by corruption, had his hands unloosed, and was set free.

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. [Eve, or ZOE, the Mediatrix, was honored because the serpent taught her feminine knowledge

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.

"they will be afraid that he may be praising, not some new songs, but a new kind of song; and this ought not to be praised, or conceived to be the meaning of the poet; for any musical innovation is full of danger in the whole State, and ought to be prohibited. 
"So Damon tells me, and I can quite believe him; he says that when modes of music change, the fundamental laws of the State always change with them..." 
        "Then," I said, "our guardians must lay the foundations of their fortress in music?"
        "Yes," I replied, 'in the form of amusement: and at first sight it always appears harmless'."
        (The Great Dialogs, Plato, Classic edition, p. 312)

Christ marked the king of Tyre as "lucifer" which He identified as a "singing and harp-playing prostitute in the garden of Eden." So the anti-God morning star is prophetically identified as the enemy of the LOGOS or true Day Star.  LOGOS is identified as the REGULATIVE PRINCIPLE.

"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).

 "We know that all of the Israelites brought Egyptian gods and practices with them and it is not far-fetched to think that Miriam, who had not yet been exposed to the Covenant, was part of the consciousness-altering rhythms and which was part of a priestly myth-play brought to destructive consummation at Mount Sinai as the golden calf was called back into action.

This "rising up to play" involved eating, drinking, nakedness and musical worship. The goddess, Hathor, is the best candidate for the Mother Goddess of the Mount Sinai idolatry. Here priestesses or prophetesses were highly trained with musical instruments, cultic songs and be able to join in the religious dance.

"Music and drugs were co-consiprators in religious ecstasy. They may have used some product of the sycamore fig which both intoxicated and induced an altered state of consciousness. The ergo of barley was well known. Anton Marks
 
"They sat down to eat and drink and rose up to play. They practiced rites in which they made themselves naked, perhaps similar to those which were carried out by naked Babylonian priests." (Woodrow, p. 158)

Deuteronomy 32 also defines the musical idolatry at Mount Sinai Deut. 32:17 They sacrificed unto devils,

The Qahal, synagogue, ekklesia or Church of Christ (the Rock) was to quarantine the godly people FROM the pagan "worship" rituals intending to seduce and fleece the poor.

Deut. 32:1 Give ear, O ye heavens,
        and I will speak; and hear, O earth,
        the words of my mouth.
Deut. 32:2 My doctrine shall drop as the rain,
        my speech shall distil as the dew,
        as the small rain upon the tender herb,
        and as the showers upon the grass:
Deut. 32:3 Because I will publish the name of the LORD:
        ascribe ye greatness unto our God.
Deut. 32:4 He is the Rock, his work is perfect:
        for all his ways are judgment:
        a God of truth and without iniquity,
        just and right is he.

1Sa 1:3 And this man went up out of his city yearly to worship and to sacrifice unto the LORD of hosts in Shiloh.
         And the two sons of Eli, Hophni and Phinehas, the priests of the LORD, were there.
1Samuel 2:1 And Hannah prayed, and said, My heart rejoiceth in the LORD, mine horn is exalted in the LORD:
        my mouth is enlarged over mine enemies; because I rejoice in thy salvation.
1Samuel 2:2 There is none holy as the LORD: for there is none beside thee: neither is there any rock like our God.
1Samuel 2:3 Talk no more so exceeding proudly; let not arrogancy come out of your mouth: for the LORD is a God of knowledge, and by him actions are weighed.

Deut. 32:18 Of the Rock that begat thee thou art unmindful,
        and hast forgotten God that formed thee.
Deut. 32:19 And when the LORD saw it, he abhorred them,

JOB DEFINING MUSIC IN THE OLDEST BIBLICAL ACCOUNT OF FERTILITY RITUALS: HOLY SEX

Knowest thou not this of old, since man was placed upon earth, Job 20:4
        that the mirth (triumphing religious festival) of the wicked is brief,
        the joy of the godless lasts but a moment. Job 20:5

That the triumphing of the wicked is short, and the joy of the hypocrite but for a moment? Job 20:5  You strum away on your harps like David and they have regarded them as abiding, not as fleeting pleasure." Amos 6:5 LXX

God then defines the short-lived mirth or musical religious festivals by asking: Wherefore do the wicked live, become old, yea, are mighty in power? Job 21:7 
        Their seed is established in their sight with them, and their offspring before their eyes. Job 21: 8
        Their houses are safe from fear, neither is the rod of God upon them. Job 21: 9
        Their bull gendereth, and faileth not; their cow calveth, and casteth not her calf. Job 21: 10
        They send forth their little ones like a flock, and their children dance. Job 21: 11
        They take the timbrel and harp, and rejoice at the sound of the organ. Job 21: 12

tympănum
  A. Esp., as beaten by the priests of Cybele, by the Bacchantine females,
B. Trop., a timbrel, etc., as a figure of something effeminate, enervating: “tympana eloquentiae,” Quint. 5, 12, 21:

        They spend their days in wealth, and in a moment go down to the grave. Job 21: 13  (Fact proven:)  
        Therefore they say unto God, Depart from us; for we desire not the knowledge of thy ways. Job 21: 14
        What is the Almighty, that we should serve him?
                and what profit should we have, if we pray unto him? Job 21: 15

Lo, their good is not in their hand: the counsel of the wicked is far from me. Job 21: 16

How oft is the candle of the wicked put out and how oft cometh their destruction upon them! God distributeth sorrows in his anger. Job 21: 17

They are as stubble before the wind, [SPIRIT] and as chaff that the storm carrieth away. Job 21: 18 God layeth up his iniquity for his children: he rewardeth him, and he shall know it. Job 21:19 His eyes shall see his destruction, and he shall drink of the wrath (bottles of poison) of the Almighty. Job

"Lucifer, the son of the morning," who was the pretended enlightener of the souls of men. The name Lucifer, in Isaiah, is the very word from which Eleleus, one of the names of Bacchus, evidently comes. It comes from "Helel," which signifies "to irradiate" or "to bring light," and is equivalent to the name Tithon. Now we have evidence that Lucifer, the son of Aurora, or the morning, was worshipped in the very same character as Nimrod, when he appeared in his new character as a little child.

As Ninus or Nimrod, was worshipped as the son of his own wife, and that wife Aurora, the goddess of the dawn, we see how exact is the reference to Phaethon, when Isaiah, speaking of the King of Babylon, who was his representative, says, "How art thou fallen from heaven, O Lucifer, son of the morning" (Isa 14:12). The marriage of Orion with Aurora; in other words, his setting up as "The kindler of light," or becoming the "author of fire-worship," is said by Homer to have been the cause of his death, he having in consequence perished under the wrath of the gods.

That Phaethon was currently represented as the son of Aurora, the common story, as related by Ovid, sufficiently proves. While Phaethon claimed to be the son of Phoebus, or the sun, he was reproached with being only the son of Merops--i.e., of the mortal husband of his mother Clymene (OVID, Metam.).

  ISAIAH 23 Lucifer the Singing and Harp Playing prostitute

Isaiah 23:15 And it shall come to pass in that day, that Tyre shall be forgotten seventy years, according to the days of one king: after the end of seventy years shall Tyre sing as an harlot.

How does one sing as a harlot:

Isaiah 23:16 Take an harp, go about the city, thou harlot that hast been forgotten;
        make sweet melody, sing many songs, that thou mayest be remembered.
Isaiah 23:17 And it shall come to pass after the end of seventy years, that the LORD will visit Tyre, and she shall turn to her hire, and shall commit fornication with all the kingdoms of the world upon the face of the earth.

ISAIAH 30 INSTRUMENTS MARK GOD DRIVING HIS ENEMIES INTO HELL

Must ye always rejoice, and go into my holy places continually, as they that keep a feast? and must ye go with a pipe, as those that rejoice into the mountain of the Lord, to the God of Israel Isaiah 30:29 LXX

and the Lord shall make his glorious voice to be heard and the wrath of his arm, to make a display with wrath and anger and devouring flame: he shall lighten terribly, and his wrath shall be as water and violent hail. Isaiah 30:30 LXX

For by the voice of the Lord the Assyrians shall be overcome, even by the stroke where with he shall smite them. Isaiah 30:31 LXX

And it shall happen to him from every side, that they from whom their hope of assistance was, in which he trusted, themselves shall war against him in turn with drums and with harp. Isaiah 30:32 LXX

For thou shalt be required before thy time: has it been prepared for thee also to reign? nay, God has prepared for thee a deep trench, wood piled fire and much wood: the wrath of the Lord shall be as a trench kindled with sulphur. Isaiah 30:33 LXX

"We may understand a thing as spoken generally, even when it requires a certain special interpretation to be given to it. For some things spoken with a special reference contain in them general truth.

When God admonishes the Isrealites of their duty, or sharply reproves them,
        He has surely a reference to all men;

when He threatens destruction to Egypt and Ethiopia,
        He surely pre-condemns every sinning nation, whatever.

If, reasoning from species to genus, every nation that sins against them is an Egypt and Ethiopia; so also, reasoning from genus to species, with reference to the origin of shows, every show is an assembly of the wicked.

        if they say unto thee, Whither shall we go forth?
        then thou shalt tell them, Thus saith the LORD;
        Such as are for death, to death;
        and such as are for the sword, to the sword;
        and such as are for the famine, to the famine;
        and such as are for the captivity, to the captivity.

Jeremiah 15:3 And I will appoint over them four kinds, saith the LORD:
        the sword to slay,
        and the dogs to tear,
        and the fowls of the heaven,
        and the beasts of the earth,
        to devour and destroy.

Lipscomb University Promotes Jesuit Retreats and using YOUR IMAGINATION to interpret Scripture.

Reclaiming the Imagination: The Exodus as Paradigmatic Narrative for Preaching This conference proposes that WE allow the worlds imagined         in the essential biblical narratives         to dramatically shape our preaching and lives. We believe that preaching reconstitutes biblical paradigms when it engages Scripture’s vision by REpresenting what is absent and making present what is inaccessible to the end that followers of God will live into a God-shaped reality. Notes from God about ungodly imagination. We identify biblical paradigms [Patterns] through the emphases Israel and the church gave them or by the claims made by the texts themselves. What Paul calls “of first importance” and Jesus describes as “weightier” suggest a hierarchy of values--that some parts of Scripture have greater claim than others. These pivotal texts which echo through Scripture should craft the Christian experience as well.   See note of first. With a vision deeply rooted in biblical studies and a homiletic that seeks to live in the world Scripture envisions, this year we ask:     What claims on our lives does the Exodus narrative imagine? Join us as we move into this world with the desire that our preaching, our lives, and the congregations we serve might better engage the essential realities. ---------+-------- Lipscomb University lists the experts they do not give the denominational background. They defacto agree with the false doctrine of those teachers. When a group turns to music, drama, visions and imagination it is a frantic effort to restore Mother Goddess Worship.. That is why rhetoric is defined as effeminate along with singing and music. Gen. 6:5 And GOD saw that the wickedness of man was great in the earth, and that every imagination of the thoughts of his heart was only evil continually. Gen. 8:21 And the LORD smelled a sweet savour; and the LORD said in his heart, I will not again curse the ground any more for man’s sake; for the imagination of man’s heart is evil from his youth; neither will I again smite any more every thing living, as I have done. For those still attached to the masculine WORD of God John warns us of the mother of harlots (Revelation 17) who uses the lusted after "fruits" as rhetoricians, singers and instrument players. John calls them sorcerers who HAD deceived the whole world.  The musicians or Muses are the dirty adulteress "musical worship team" working for Apollo, Abaddon or Apollyon. THE RISE OF MOTHER GODDESS WORSHIP In warning against women and the outbreak of wrath or orgy, Paul markes the priests of Cybele who were emasculated and even had a sex reassignment before jethey could qualify.  Therefore, the quest for the VISIONS and IMAGINATION is the clear MARK of a total taking capture of a church or once Christian university. Lynn Anderson and Rubel Shelly have followed the feminists and Lesbian Methodists in their revisioning or reimaging of the church: they claim that they have new SPETACLES. Karen Armstrong, in A History of God, shows how the pagan clergy attempted to neutralize the One God Who was spoken of as male: "God lay beyond 'gender' but, as in the Enuma Elish, each pair of emanations consisted of a male and female--a scheme which attempted to neutralize the masculine tenor of more conventional monotheism. Each pair of emanations grew weaker and more attenuated, since they were getting even further from their divine Source." (p. 95) Speaking of the mystics, Armstrong showed how the new, gender-neutral gods are to be worshipped: "This God is to be approached through the imagination and can be seen as a kind of art form, akin to the other great artistic symbols that have expressed the ineffable mystery, beauty and the value of life.   Mystics have used music, dancing, poetry, fiction, stories, painting, sculpture and architecture to express this Reality which goes beyond concepts." (P. 396) Lynn Anderson: The mind-set of the times threatens to strip our faith of symbols, rituals, dramas, mystery, poetry, and story, which say about life and God what logic and reason and rationalism can never say. See Volkism Guided Imagery: David Hunt, in his two books, The Seduction of Christianity (1985) and Beyond Seduction (1987), first chronicled the influence of Carl Jung's ideas in the modern church. He wrote of Agnes Sanford whose visualization techniques are founded in      shamanistic practices of the occult and     who expressed pantheistic beliefs similar to those held by Carl Jung. The Vineyard Christian Fellowships, headed by John Wimber, are heavily involved in the use of imagination, visualization, and inner healing. There has been criticism that to a large extent allowing God to "guide the imagination" has been placed on a level equal to the authority of the Bible, which has created a great deal of confusion. David Hunt, (p. 174 Seduction of Christianity John was literate and understood Hesiod and we understand the meaning of the LOCUSTS as the Muses of Revelation. [25] the Muses of Olympus, daughters of Zeus who holds the aegis: "Shepherds of the wilderness, wretched things of shame, mere bellies, we know how to speak many false things as though they were true; but we know, when we will, to utter true things."

David Lipscomb Still speaks for the OWNERS: All service in his kingdom not ordained by him, all organizations not builded by him, not commanded in his word, are without the seals of his blood, are unsanctified and defile the temple of God. The letter to the Hebrews x: 28, further declares, "He who despised Moses' law died without mercy under two or three witnesses. Of how much sorer punishment, suppose ye, shall he be thought worthy, who hath trodden under foot the Son of God, and hath counted the blood of the covenant, wherewith he was sanctified, an unholy thing, and has done despite to the Spirit of grace." [45] To despise Moses' law was to turn from the law given by Moses and sealed by the typical blood, to service not so given. He who turns from the appointments given by the Son of God, sealed by his blood, revealed and confirmed by the Spirit of God,  or places upon equality with them as service to God the acts and institutions of man's wisdom, tramples under foot the authority of Jesus Christ, and makes it nothing.  For if man's wisdom can guide into the service of God, it is as good as the wisdom of God. So to make services based on the opinions of man, not sealed by the blood of Christ, a part of the worship of God, is to place them upon equality with the blood-sealed appointments of Jesus Christ and the wisdom and authority of man on equality with the wisdom and authority of God. To do this is to count the blood of Christ which seals the covenant, unholy--that is, without sanctifying efficacy. If service in the ways based on man's opinions, unsealed by the blood of Christ, is acceptable to God, it is equal to that service rendered through the blood-sealed appointments, hence the blood is of no avail, it is unholy, and does not consecrate or sanctify the service sealed by it. To serve God in ways based on the opinions of man, is to turn from the Spirit, is to refuse to be led by the Spirit, and is to place his teachings on a level with the teachings of God. Hence the seal of the blood and the teachings of the Spirit are of no value. To introduce or observe a service based on the opinions or wisdom of man, is to trample under foot the Son of God, despise his authority, count the blood of the covenant wherewith he was sanctified an unholy thing, and do "despite unto the Spirit of Grace." Those who thus treat the law of him who speaks from heaven, will receive a punishment much sorer than those who rejected the law of Moses.   David Lipscomb continues: "As an example, the Spirit of God said, "Christians [46] must speak to themselves in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing and making melody in your hearts to the Lord." Here is Divine requirement for singing.    This comes to us as the direction of the Spirit [the Word] sealed with the blood of Christ.     Man's opinion introduces an organ. When an organ is introduced into the worship  it is placed on equality with the singing.     It is really placed above it,     and over-rides and supersedes it. But say it is there as a part of the service of God.  It stands on equality with the appointments of God. The authority of the Spirit and the blood of Christ go for nothing--they are not needed to render the service acceptable, since the organ without the authority of God and the blood of Christ, is acceptable. If any service not authorized by the word of God, not sealed by the blood of Christ, is acceptable to God---then that authority and blood are not needed to render any service acceptable, and to introduce those not authorized and sealed    is to declare the sanction of the Spirit and the seal of the blood .are not needed--not holy--do not sanctify. It is equally true of institutions in which we serve God.    The churches of Christ, local and distinct, are ordained by God-- sealed by the blood of Jesus, and given us by the Spirit of God, for the purpose    of saving and elevating men and honoring God. To accept these and work in them, is to honor their author and to show an appreciation of the blood that seals them, and it is to follow the Spirit of God. To organize other institutions upon the opinion or judgment of man, through which to work, is to declare man's judgment equal to the wisdom of God,     it is to declare the sanctifying power of the blood, not needed, or it is to ignore that there is sanctifying power in the blood and to set at naught the teachings of the Spirit.   This is to trample under foot the Son of God, to count the blood of the covenant unholy--without sanctifying power, and thus [47] to set at naught or do despite to the Spirit of Grace. This is true of all service based on the authority of man's opinions or judgment. The pastor distinct from the eldership, is added as a matter of opinion. This opinion of man becomes equivalent to or above the order of God, .which ordains the elders as the teachers. .. The pastorate becomes more important than the eldership. .It degrades the authority that ordains the eldership for the church.  Again, the Lord ordained that his church should be carried forward by free gifts, honestly gained, cheerfully given by his children. This has the sanction of the Spirit, and is sealed by the blood of Christ. Men on their opinions hold festivals, fairs and frolics, to entice men, for fleshly gratification, to give their money, and this is brought into the temple of God, on an equal footing with that contributed according to the direction of God. This is to trample under foot the Lord Jesus Christ, to count the blood of the covenant unholy, of no value, and it is to do despite to the Spirit of Grace. These things are properly defined "fads, fancies, preferences, based on opinion and nothing but opinion." To introduce them into the worship or church of God, is to make man's opinion a basis and rule of action for the church, and a fad or fancy or human opinion, equal to a blood-sealed ordinance of God. This is to place man's opinion on an equality with the word of God. This is to degrade the authority of God, to trample under foot the Lord Jesus and his authority, to count the blood of the covenant unholy, of no value, and to reject the teachings of the Holy Spirit.

Because Israel rejected The Book of The Covenant of Grace and IMAGED the musical idolatry of Egypt, God truned them over to worship the starry host (Acts 7 etal).  The Book of The Law regulated the Lawless and the Monarch, Monarchy, Sacrifices, Exorcising "music" and Temple was NOT for God but for a GOYIM or pagan worship to which God abandoned them. Ex. 20:4 Thou shalt not make unto thee any graven image, or any likeness of any thing that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth:  When you GRAVE the image of your own heart on sermons and songs you have fallen into idolatry of your own mind. You have also violated direct commands to "speak that which is written" and of the elders to "teach that which has been taught." There was no imagination allowed in connection with the Word of God.

EZEKIEL 8 Women INSIDE the Temple restoring the INANNA (Ishtar, Astarte) worship while the men held the first sun-rise service BOWING to the Sun and turning their bacck on God.

Ezek. 8:4 And, behold, the glory of the God of Israel was there,
        according to the vision that I saw in the plain.
Ezek. 8:5 Then said he unto me, Son of man, lift up thine eyes now the way toward the north.
        So I lifted up mine eyes the way toward the north,
        and behold northward at the gate of the altar this image of jealousy in the entry.

Morris Silver:  Some commentators consider hmqnh to be a later gloss to clarify the meaning of "image of jealousy." But how does it clarify? I propose the translation "seat of the commercial agent." It is well known that, for reasons of economic efficiency, ancient temples were commercial centers (see ESoA, Chap. 1). The rage of Ezekiel and his circle at the presence of a commercial agent in the courtyard of the Temple would be explained by their well-documented loathing for commercial life... This line of interpretation finds support in the LXX and Old Latin versions which may be translated as "statue/image of the trader/buyer." [acquire, buy, produce and procreate.

Torczyner suggests that the compound term sha mala was transmitted from Assyrian (not Babylonian) into Hebrew as semel, with sh being pronounced as s. Thus, again, the "image of jealousy" whose presence in the sanctuary enraged Ezekiel was a businessman, not an idol.

  Ezekiel 13 WHY THE CHURCH OF CHRIST MAY HAVE GONE UNDERGROUND--INTO THE WILDERNESS--TO ESCAPE MEN MAKING MERCHANDISE AND WOMEN "MAKING SOULS FLY" AND BE CAPTURED.

Likewise, thou son of man, set thy face against the daughters of thy people, which prophesy out of their own heart; and prophesy thou against them, Eze 13:17

And say, Thus saith the Lord God; Woe to the women that sew pillows (seductive suggestion) to all armholes, and make kerchiefs upon the head of every stature to hunt souls Will ye hunt the souls of my people, and will ye save the souls alive that come unto you? Ezekiel13:18

The Pythia (priestess) of the Greek oracle at Delphi often went into an ecstatic state during which she uttered sounds revealed to her by the python (the snake, the symbol of resurrection), after drinking water from a certain spring.

Her "words" were then interpreted by a priest to help a suppliant find a way to avoid calamities, especially death. In primitive religions, ecstasy was a technique highly developed by shamans, religious personages with healing and psychic-transformation powers, in their "soul," or "spirit," flights. (See Delphic oracle.) "ecstasy" Encyclopædia Britannica Online

  The Spirit of Christ in Ezekiel 20 further defined the Musical Fall From Grace

  EZEKIEL 26

Ezekiel also prophesied that the music and musicians of Tyre would be cast into sheol. It is not coincidental that forcing people to honor the theatrical performers rather than hearing God through His Word is often related to breaking down the walls to allow the enemy to come in and, perhaps, pick up some of the financial load. Ezekiel said however, speaking for God, that:

They will plunder your wealth and loot your merchandise; they will break down your walls and demolish your fine houses and throw your stones, timber and rubble into the sea. Ezek 26:12

I will put an end to your noisy songs, and the music of your harps will be heard no more. Ezek 26:13

The LXX is more forceful in showing that both the music and the musicians would be silenced--

"And he shall destroy the multitude of thy musicians, and the sound of thy psalteries shall be heard no more." Ezek. 26:13 LXX

then I will bring you down with those who go down to the pit, to the people of long ago. I will make you dwell in the earth below, as in ancient ruins, with those who go down to the pit, and you will not return or take your place in the land of the living. Ezek 26:20

  EZEKIEL 33 REFERENCED BY JESUS TO DEFINE SCRIBES AND PHARISEES, HYPOCRITES

Jesus called the Scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites.  The Ezekiel account identifies the HYPOCRITES.

Ye hypocrites (actors), well did Esaias prophesy of you, saying, Matt 15:7   This people draweth nigh unto me with their mouth,   and honoreth me with their lips; but their heart is far from me. Matt 15:8   But in vain they do worship me, teaching for doctrines the commandments of men. Matt 15:9   And he called the multitude, and said unto them, Hear, and understand: Matt 15:10   But He spoke to them in parables and they couldn't understand because they had the wrong "seeker" motive.

Also, thou son of man, the children of thy people still are talking against thee by the walls and in the doors of the houses, and speak one to another, every one to his brother, saying, Come, I pray you,   and hear what is the word that cometh forth from the Lord. Ezek 33:30   And they come unto thee as the people cometh,   and they sit before thee as my people,   and they hear thy words, but they will not do them: for with their mouth they shew much love, (erotic praise songs)   but their heart goeth after their covetousness. Ezek 33:31

Not that which goeth into the mouth defileth a man;   but that which cometh out of the mouth, this defileth a man. Matt 15:11   Then came his disciples, and said unto him, Knowest thou that the Pharisees were offended, after they heard this saying? Matt 15:12   But he answered and said, Every plant, which my heavenly Father hath not planted, shall be rooted up. Matt 15:13   Let them alone:they be blind leaders of the blind.   And if the blind lead the blind, both shall fall into the ditch. Matt 15:14

And, lo, thou art unto them   as a very lovely song   of one that hath a pleasant voice,   and can play well on an instrument:   for they hear thy words,   but they do them not. Ezek 33:32   And when this cometh to pass, (lo, it will come,)   then shall they know that a prophet hath been among them. Ezek 33:33

  Hosea 2:11 I will also cause all her mirth to cease, her feast days, her new moons, and her sabbaths, and all her solemn feasts.

(13)AND I SHALL PUT AN END TO ALL HER JOY, [HER] PIL[GRIMAGE,] HER [NEW] MOON, AND HER SABBATH, AND ALL HER FEASTS.

The interpretation of it is that they make [the fe]asts go according to the appointed times of the nation. And [all] [joy] has been turned for them into mourning.

"I will put an end to her rejoicing, her feasts, her new moons, her Sabbaths, and all her festivals (Hosea ii,11).

"Interpreted, this means that they have rejected the ruling of the law,
and have followed the festivals of the nations.

But their rejoicing shall come to an end and shall be changed into mourning.

God had ABANDONED Israel to the Worship of the Starry host BECAUSE of musical idolatry on the REST day: this was the day people were FREE from any clergy or religious performance.  Resting,  Reading and Rehearsing the Word was the normal practice.

"Elements of ritual and mythology were taken over from Canaanite religion and inocrporated into the worship of Yahweh. Former Canaanite sanctuaries, like Bethel, Shechem, and perhaps Gilgal, were rededicated to Yahweh, and the Canaanite agricultural calendar was adopted for the timing of the pilgrimage festivals. Parents began naming their children after Baal, apparently with no thought of abandoning Yahweh.... As late as the eighth century B.C., Israelites--according to the prophet Hosea—actually addressed Yahweh as 'Baal," and by worhipping him according to the rituals of Baal sought the blessing of fertility (Hos. 2) At the popular level this syncretism—that is, the fusion of different religious forms and view--went on to some degree from the time Israel first set foot on Canaanite." (Anderson, Bernhard W., Understanding the Old Testament, 3rd, Prentice-Hall, p, p. 145).

Shall I move my white foot in the night-long dance, aroused to a frenzy, [865] throwing my head to the dewy air, like a fawn sporting in the green pleasures of the meadow, when it has escaped a fearful chase beyond the watchers [870] over the well-woven nets, and the hunter hastens his dogs [Catamites] on their course with his call, while she, with great exertion and a storm-swift running, rushes along the plain by the river, rejoicing [875] in the solitude apart from men and in the thickets of the shady-foliaged woods.

What is wisdom? Or what greater honor do the gods give to mortals than to hold one's hand [880] in strength over the head of enemies? What is good is always dear.

THE BEAST IN REVELATION

Thêrion  a tragedy in Satyric Drama. In Athens adapting old dithyramb with its chorus of Satyrs, 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 dance of the chorus in the satyric drama was called sikinnis or sikinnon, and consisted of a fantastic kind of skipping and jumping

Sikinnis named after a mymph of Cybele although originally danced in honor of Sabazios.

Cybele or Kubebes: CII. Kubêbês. The ‘Great Mother’ goddess of the Phrygians worshipped at Pessinus, the mêtêr Dindumênê of i. 80. 1. For the Anatolian ‘Great Mother’ cf. App. I. 2, Frazer, G. B. iv, Bk. II, Attis, &c.; Ramsay, in Hastings' Bible Dictionary, extra vol., p. 120 f. The Atys myth which involved her cult is connected with Sardis by H.'s story of the son of Croesus (i. 34. 2 n.). The Great Mother was worshipped at Athens in the days of Sophocles (Phil. 391), and identified by the Greeks with Rhea, mother of the gods (cf. iv. 76; Strabo 469), with Aphrodite, with Demeter, and with Artemis as the lady of the wild woods. But here she is regarded as a foreign goddess.

THE END OF THE ROAD FOR THOSE SOWING MUSICAL DISCORD FOR COMMERCE

The Prototype of Babylon-Tyre Israel. Sodom not spiritual Israel.	Jesus referenced Isaiah and Ezekiel to define the national Worship of the Starry Host--Abaddon	The End-Time Fulfillment
For thus saith the Lord God; Behold, I will bring upon Tyrus Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon, a king of kings, from the north, with horses, and with chariots, and with horsemen, and companies, and much people. Ezek 26:7 They will plunder your wealth and     loot your merchandise;     they will break down your walls     and demolish your fine houses and throw your stones, TIMBER and rubble into the sea. Ezek 26:12	Also, thou son of man, the children of thy people still are talking against thee by the walls and in the doors of the houses, and speak one to another, every one to his brother, saying, Come, I pray you, and hear what is the word that cometh forth from the Lord. Eze 33:30	Rev 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. Rev 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: Rev 17:5 And upon her forehead was a name written, MYSTERY, BABYLON THE GREAT, THE MOTHER OF HARLOTS AND ABOMINATIONS OF THE EARTH. Rev 17:6 And I saw the woman drunken with the blood of the saints, and with the blood of the martyrs of Jesus: and when I saw her, I wondered with great admiration.
I will put an end to your noisy songs, and the music [sound] of your harps will be heard no more. Ezek 26:13 The LXX is more forceful in showing that both the music and the musicians would be silenced--- "And he shall destroy the multitude of thy musicians, and the sound of thy psalteries shall be heard no more." Ezek. 26:13 LXX	My people come to you, as they usually do, and sit before you to listen to your words, but they do not put them into practice. With their mouths they express devotion (Lord, Lord as amorousness - inordinate love), but their hearts are greedy for unjust gain (commerce or trade or attendance). Eze 33:31	Rev 18:1 And after these things I saw another angel come down from heaven, having great power; and the earth was lightened with his glory. 2 And he cried mightily with a strong voice, saying, Babylon the great is fallen, is fallen, and is become the habitation of devils, and the hold of every foul spirit, and a cage of every unclean and hateful bird.  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 18:22
then I will bring you down with those who go down to the pit, to the people of long ago I will make you dwell in the earth below, as in ancient ruins, with those who go down to the PIT,and you will not return or take your place in the land of the living. Ezek 26:20 Isaiah 14:11 Thy pomp is brought down to the grave, and the noise of thy viols: the worm is spread under thee, and the worms [maggots] cover thee. Amos 5:23 Take thou away from me the noise [tŭmultus] of thy songs [carmen]  for I will not hear the melody [cantĭcum] of thy viols	Indeed, to them you are NOTHING MORE than one who sings love songs with a beautiful voice and [NOTHING MORE than one who] plays (make melody on) an instrument well, for they hear your words but do not put them into practice. Eze 33	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.
I will make thee a terror, and thou shalt be no more: though thou be sought for, yet shalt thou never be found again, saith the Lord God. Ezek 26:2	When all this comes true-- and it surely will-- then they will know that a prophet has been among them." Eze 33:33	Revelation 19:19 And I saw the beast, and the kings of the earth, and their armies, gathered together to make war against him that sat on the horse, and against his army. Revelation 19:20 And the beast was taken, and with him the false prophet that wrought miracles before him, with which he deceived them that had received the mark of the beast, and them that worshipped his image. These both were cast alive into a lake of fire burning with brimstone.

The Babylonians knew a lot about medicine.  There were many treatments which involved drugs or plants (cutting of roots) which treated some diseases.  However, for those ills they did not know how to treat they, like witchdoctors or priests, added songs or incantations usually accompanied with musical instrumets.  In a parallel and modern sense, preachers tend to CUT AND BLEND parts of the WORD which does not work because it perverts the only remedy.  Early on, they discovered that they could use priestly speeches, songs or playing instruments to TRY to cure what seemed to be missing.  ANYONE who uses any house, works of human hands or self-speech are called SORCERERS or witchdoctors.  African witchdoctors "baptized" their instruments and housed them in a shrine where they werre worshipped.

SELLING YOUR OWN OPINIONS AND WORDS IN SERMON OR SONG IS PROSTITUTION

Honorable Preachers have been USURPED by Theolgians: Jesus said that doctors of the Law take away the key to knowledge.  Furthermore, CORRUPTING the Word is selling your own words at retail: that is defined as PROSTITUTION.

X.Mem.1.6.13  Xen. Mem. 1.6.1

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.

Matthew 11:16 But whereunto shall I liken this generation?

ALL RELIGIOUS OBSERVATIONS HAVE ALWAYS BEEN AND WILL ALWAYS BE EFFEMINATE

See Worship Androgyny the Pagan Sexual Ideal, Peter Jones.

Jesus called the Scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites: in the Ezekiel 33 version he identifies self-speakers, singers and instrument players FOR HIRE.  The SEXUAL LOVE is based on the ORGAN of Jubal who HANDLED musical instruments without authority.  Musical Instruments always tugged at the sexual senses so that the female priestesses could fleece the customer of all of his food money before he could get out of town. NOTHING Christianity can be SOLD and nothing SOLD can be Christian.

Jesus said that the kingdom does not COME with observation: that means RELIGIOUS SERVICES which are defined as the lying wonders of deluded MANY sucking up all of the funds from the honest evangelist.

Cyprian letters 1:8

That Jupiter of theirs is not more supreme in dominion than in vice, inflamed with earthly love in the midst of his own thunders...now breaking forth by the help of birds to violate the purity of boys.  And now put the question: Can he who looks upon things be healthy-minded or modest? Men imitate the gods whom they adore, and to such miserable beings their crimes become their religion.

INSTRUMENTAL TRANSISTIONED CHURCHES OFTEN REMOVE CHRIST FROM THEIR CONFESSION

What was historically, from the Wilderness onward,  Called the Church of Christ (the Rock) and most if not all historic scholars and founders of denominations CONFESSES the one who purchased the Church with His own blood.

Died C. 110 Ignatius to the Ephesians

And if those that corrupt mere human families are condemned to death, how much more shall those suffer everlasting punishment who endeavour to corrupt the Church of Christ, for which the Lord Jesus, the only-begotten Son of God, endured the cross, and submitted to death! Whosoever, "being waxen fat," and "become gross," sets at nought His doctrine, shall go into hell.

In like manner, every one that has received from God the power of distinguishing, and yet follows an unskilful shepherd, and receives a false opinion for the truth, shall be punished.

"What communion hath light with darkness? or Christ with Belial? Or what portion hath he that believeth with an infidel? or the temple of God with idols? " And in like manner say I, what communion hath truth with falsehood? or righteousness with unrighteousness? or true doctrine with that which is false?

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

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

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

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

J. W. McGarvey on the Organ

Nor does God permit us to drive some of the brethren from the church

to avoid doing what they believe to be sinful.
To do so is to cause division in a way that God condemns. and if we thus sin,
he demands that we be marked and avoided as schismatics.

So it matters not how the effort may result, it condemns us in the sight of God. If the brethren submit and debauch their conscience by doing that which they believe to be wrong, we sin against them and against Christ, says Paul. (1 Cor. 8: 12.)

If we drive them from the church which they have to leave to avoid condemning themselves in this way,

we are guilty of the sin of causing division,
to which we have referred.

In any event, therefore, our conduct is just as positively forbidden as is blasphemy or adultery.
