Christian Chronicle, Allan Stanglin, Libby Weed: Allan Stanglin makes the news by promoting fellowship with false teachers. This is promoted by false teachers as the PURPOSE DRIVING RESTORATION MOVEMENT. If you tell a lie often enough people will believe is as Hitler taught Gobels:
Christian Chronicles: "Churches of Christ have roots in the American Restoration Movement, which began on the U.S. frontier in the 1790s and called for Christians of all denominations to rid themselves of man-made creeds, following the Bible only.
The examples makes it seem that this includes fellowshiping those who call Christ in prophecy, Jesus, the Bible writers and recorded history liars about baptism and worship using musical instruments as the MARK of mocking Jesus and always connected to disputing the Word and with being CAST ALIVE INTO THE LAKE OF FIRE.
As ANTITHESIS, Jesus removed all of the laded burdens and burden laders: He called the Scribes and Pharisees (writers and preachers) hypocrites. In Ezekiel 33 Christ named performing preachers for hire, singers and instrument players.
That's the mantra but the lie that Churches of Christ, defined by Christ the Rock from the wilderness onward, had any kind of ROOTS in the American Restoration Movement. Isaiah 50 defines the instrumental mocking of the future Messiah, Isaiah 55 outlawed spending anything on the free water of the Word and Isaiah 58 defines the future RESTORATION PRINCIPLE. Theologians missed the prophets and therefore do not build or educated the church by the prophets and apostles.
The Church in the Wilderness was built by Christ the Rock. It had a one-piece pattern which never changed for the synagogue or church prior to the merging of what was called The Church of Christ with paganism. Faithful people in all ages existed with the goal to try to conform to the PATTERN of being A day of Rest from religion and a day of prayer and Bible study.
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?
The LOGOS or WORD is defined as the REGULATIVE PRINCIPLE: among the Greeks Hermes the god of liars was called the spokesman and mediator in person. As ANTITHESIS, God taught that HE is the only source of LOGOS and Jesus of Nazareth the ONLY teacher-mediator. The Regulative principle would be understood by all as EXCLUDING personal opinions, personal examples, moralizing, reciting poetry or songs (all considered lies), singing, playing instruments or acting. Those given audience by the Christian Chronicle MOCK the LOGOS and because Jesus is the VISIBLE-AUDIBLE word of God, they are defacto ANTI-Christs.
All literate Scholars such as the Campbells built upon the Logos and not one any philosophy. The were APOSTOLIC meaning that the goal was to teach the PROPHETS and APOSTLES as the building or educating of disciples.
The Spirit OF Christ defined the rest day then and for the future church of Messiah.
Isaiah 58: 6 Is not this the fast that I have chosen?
to loose the bands of wickedness,
to undo the heavy burdens,
and to let the oppressed go free,
and that ye break every yoke?
Isaiah 58: 8 Then shall thy light break forth as the morning,
and thine health shall spring forth speedily:
and thy righteousness shall go before thee;
the glory of the Lord shall be thy rereward (what you gather).
Isa 58:12 And they that shall be of thee shall build the old waste places:
thou shalt raise up the foundations [fundāmentum] of many generations;
and thou shalt be called,
The repairer of the breach,
The restorer of paths to dwell in. [Rest]

Sabbatum A. In gen., the day of rest among the Jews, the Sabbath; considered by the Romans to have been ordained as a fast-day. Skhole or a day of School Only.
The only way to honor God is to NOT try to do His Work for Him. The SABBATH should be a DELIGHT by not doing your own pleasure.
not doing thine own ways,
nor finding thine own pleasure,
nor speaking thine own words:Paul in Romans 15 explained this: self pleasure is the Greek Areskos or Latin Placeo: he outlaws rhetoric, singing, playing instruments or anything defined as performance and a LADED BURDEN. Then, the one piece pattern in the NEVER-MUSICAL PASSAGES is to "use one mind and one mouth" to speak "that which is written for our learning." A christian is a Disciple is a STUDENT for all of those scholars out there. The TEXT is the WORD, Logos or Regulative Principle: it outlaws rhetoric, singing or playing instruments Christ called the HYPOCRITIC practices intending to silence the "mouth of the victim.
Christian Chronicle: More than two centuries later, the debate in Churches of Christ over how to relate to other faith groups has intensified, church members said, as young believers eschew the “brand loyalty” of their parents and join community churches outside the fellowship — churches that also claim the Restoration ideal of non-denominational Christianity.
That is also utterly false: the problem is promoted by false teachers pervading educational institutions and lying to God and About God and TEACHING them to betray their ancestors as Allan Stanglin believes were not as ENLIGHTENED as He.
This has been the proclaimed Purpose Driving the "progressives" of most if not all once-Christian universities and the preachers they train and give a Simony-like newly-opened door by a spirit person.
Rick Atchley as the foundation Allan Stanglin builds on says even when we knew it a decade earlier:
"Well, we discipled the children of those progressive churches for a whole generation to grow past us Boomers.The Chronicle gives audience to one of them:
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!
Libby Weed, Principle: "The phenomenon is “almost breathtakingly ironic,” said Libby Weed, principal of Brentwood Christian School in Austin, Texas. “Our movement began as an effort to unite Christians — to do away with sectarian ‘branding’ and be Christians only. What a jarring paradox that, in the minds of many, we in Churches of Christ want to draw rigid lines of exclusion and impose boundaries that Scripture does not impose.”
Philo of Alexandria had already emphasized the ethical qualities of music, spurning the 'effeminate' art of his Gentile surroundings. Similarly, early synagogue song intentionally foregoes artistic perfection, renounces the playing of instruments, and attaches itself entirely to 'the word'&emdash;the TEXT of the Bible" (Encyclopaedia Judaica, 1971 ed., s.v. "Music")
In their latest assault following Jubilee, the Re-Visioning the church (re-imaging among the feminists Methodists) has new GLASSES and a new VISION and see RELIGION OF THE IMAGE (IDOL) using music, hand clapping and drama as just the thing. Unfortunate for them, Karen Armstrong, once a nun notes of the universal feminist gods: "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."
Libby Weed, Principle: Our movement began as an effort to unite Christians
That's false: Churches of Christ were never "united" with the Disciples of Christ or the Christian Churches. "Unity" implies everyone joined in one great love in. We are commanded to SPEAK the same things and we will all be united like the church or synagogue because they were commanded to PREACH the Word (only) by READING the Word for comfort and doctrine. Surprise but one body can only work and assemble at one time at one place. If everyone was a SCHOOL OF THE WORD we would all be united.
Deut 33:3 Yea, he loved the people;

Plu.2.166a (codd., baptismous Bentley).We have reason to believe that the "christian" school is following the same well-prophesied deception. Pseudo scholars have no hesitation to lie about godly scholars in order to do what Scripture defines as the predestination. Jude defines the idolatry at Mount Sinai:
Jude 1 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 THE FAITH for which was once delivered unto the saints.
Jude 2 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 3 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 4 And the angels which kept not their first estate,
but left their own habitation,
he hath reserved in everlasting chains under darkness unto the judgment of the great day.
Jude 5 Even as Sodom and Gomorrha, and the cities about them in like manner,
giving themselves over to fornication, and going after strange flesh,
are set forth for an example, [PATTERN] suffering the vengeance of eternal fire.
Jude 6 Likewise also these filthy dreamers defile the flesh,
despise dominion, and speak evil of dignities.The phenomenon is “almost breathtakingly ironic,” said Libby Weed, principal of Brentwood Christian School in Austin, Texas. “Our movement began as an effort to unite Christians — to do away with sectarian ‘branding’ and be Christians only.

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 17 But, beloved, remember ye the WORDS which were spoken before
of the apostles of our Lord Jesus Christ;
Jude 18 How that they told you there should be MOCKERS in the last time,
who should walk after their own ungodly lusts.

The Horae were among the mathematici 'learned mothers' who defined the Zodiac and the star movements marking the seasons, one translation of the word 'hora.' Another is 'hour,' and the Horae developed various means to mark time. Hence the word for time keeping, 'horology' and the French word for clock 'horlogue.'

One can believe that people who soar above their local duty for which there is no "Christian" role or dole feels good by awarding salvation to those whom he pronounces "just as saved as I. The NEWS knows when people accepting hire from widows and working people feels compelled to REBEL against every Bible and History-supported tenet of "An Assembly of Christ." However, most disciples have no time nor need to pass judgment on everyone so they can attend, defend and affirm all of those call his supporters members of a cult or worse. However, from the instrumental-trinitiaria "ecumenical" idolatry at Mount Sinai, the Church of Christ (the Rock) has quarantined the little flock of disciples from the always-pagan rituals on the superstitious seventh day of the week.
The "worship" rituals to which God abandoned the Jews was part of the God-abandoned Civil-Military-Clergy complex at Jerusalem often equated to Sodom.

What a jarring paradox that, in the minds of many, we in Churches of Christ want to draw rigid lines of exclusion and impose boundaries that Scripture does not impose.”
THE TRUTH: The Lunenburg Correspondence always lied about
1. Let me ask, in the first place, what could mean all that we have written upon the union of Christians on apostolic grounds, had we taught that all Christians in the world were already united in our own community?
2. And in the second place, why should we so often have quoted and applied to apostate Christendom what the Spirit saith to saints in Babylon--"Come out of her, my people, that you partake not of her sins, and that you receive not of her plagues"--had we imagined that the Lord had no people beyond the pale of our communion!
3. But let him that yet doubts, read the following passages from the Christian Baptist, April, 1825:--
"I have no idea of seeing, nor wish to see, the sects unite in one grand army.
This would be dangerous to our liberties and laws. For this the Saviour did not pray.
It is only the disciples dispersed among them that reason and benevolence would call out of them, "&c. &c. This looks very like our present opinion of Christians among the sects!!! 2d ed. Bethany, p. 85.4. Again, speaking of purity of speech in order to the union of Christians, we say,
"None of you [Christians] have ever yet attempted to show how Christians can be united on your principles.
You have often showed how they may be divided, and how each party may hold its own, but while you pray for the visible unity of the disciples, and advocate their visible disunity, we cannot understand you." March, 1827, vol. 4.
"FOR WE FIND IN ALL PROTESTANT PARTIES CHRISTIANS as exemplary as ourselves according to their and our relative knowledge and opportunities;
but we cannot form a confederacy with the troops of Satan, or tax his subjects to sustain the Christian cause; and, therefore, so long as all these associations openly and avowedly form a community on any one of these bonds of union, irrespective of citizenship in the kingdom of heaven; I say, so long as they hold communion with profane and ungodly persons, or with Gentiles of no creed and every creed, because of a single point of coincidence,
whatever that point may be, we cannot unite with them, or sail under such a flag. Besides, if such schemes are really necessary, then has the church failed--then the Divine institution must yield the palm to institutions merely human. (pp. 271-273)
But to conclude for the present--he that claims for himself a license to neglect the least of all the commandments of Jesus
or he that wilfully neglects to ascertain the will of the Lord to the whole extent of his means and opportunities because some who are defective in that knowledge may be Christians,
because it is possible for some to be saved who
through insuperable ignorance or involuntary mistake, do neglect or transgress it;
is not possessed of the spirit of Christ and cannot be registered among the Lord's people.
So I reason; and I think in so reasoning I am sustained by all the Prophets and Apostles of both Testaments.
H. Bamfort Parkes, Of Men and Gods notes that:
'Certain members of a tribe, marked out either by unusual skills or by some emotional abnormality, usually 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."
"The development both of religion and of the arts can be traced back in a continuous line to the hunting era. The group ritual of the primeval tribesmen were the origin not only of all religious ceremonial, but also of the drama and of poetry and music, while magic gave birth to the visual arts." (Parkes, p. 30).
"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.
In most early societies, moreover, men evolved techniques for deliberately inducing the abnormal forms of consciousness in which they supposed themselves to achieve union with divine power, sometimes by the use of drugs and other physiological stimuli, sometimes by hypnotic dances and music.
