David.Young.Colossians.2.18.Worshiping.of.Angels

Let no man beguile you of your reward in
        a voluntary humility and
worshiping of angels,
        intruding into those things which
he hath not seen,
        vainly puffed up by his fleshly mind

2Tim. 3:5 Having a form of godliness,
        but denying the power thereof: from such turn away.
2Tim. 3:6 For of this sort are they which creep into houses,  [churches]

2Tim. 3:7 Ever learning, and never able to come to the knowledge of the truth.
2Tim. 3:8 Now as Jannes and Jambres withstood Moses, so do these also resist the truth: men of corrupt minds, reprobate concerning the faith.

Standing in his 'holey' place pretending to be God

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 objectification of our weakness.
A man who has sobered up, a demystified 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 unleashed 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.
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?

Col. 2:1  For I would that ye knew what great conflict I have for you, and for them at Laodicea, and for as many as have not seen my face in the flesh;
Col. 2:2 That their hearts might be comforted, being knit together in love,
        and unto all riches of the full assurance of understanding,
        to the acknowledgement of the mystery of God,
        and of the Father, and of Christ;




We have discussed the fact that as the SCRIBES completed their PART of the PERFECT, that all of the epistles teach only that God the Father (Pater=Teacher) and the MAN Jesus the LORD are mentioned. SPIRIT is always put in the form of God Puts His WORD into the MOUTH of Moses, Elijah (the prophets) His son, Jesus of Nazareth for the LAST TIME.

Col. 2:3 In whom are hid all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge.
Col. 2:4  And this I say, lest any man should beguile you with enticing words.
Col. 2:5 For though I be absent in the flesh,
        yet am I with you in the spirit,
        joying and beholding your order, and the stedfastness of your faith in Christ.
Col. 2:6 As ye have therefore received Christ Jesus the Lord,
        so walk ye in him:
peripa^t-eō 2. walk about while teaching, discourse, Pl.Ep.348c, D.L.7.109 ;
metaph., walk, i.e. live, Phld.Lib.p.12 O. ; “kata tēn paradosinEv.Marc.7.5 ; “ataktōs2 Ep.Thess.3.6.
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.
Mark 7:[5] The Pharisees and the scribes asked him, "Why don't your disciples walk according to the tradition of the elders, but eat their bread with unwashed hands?"
[6] Now we command you, brothers, in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that you withdraw
2 Thessalonians 3.6 yourselves from every brother who walks in rebellion, and not after the tradition which they received from us.

2Th. 3:6 Now we command you, brethren,
        in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ,
        that ye withdraw yourselves from every brother that walketh disorderly,
        and not after the tradition which he received of us.
2Th. 3:7 For yourselves know how ye ought to follow us:
        for we behaved not ourselves disorderly among you;
2Th. 3:8 Neither did we eat any man’s bread for nought;
        but wrought with labour and travail night and day,
        that we might not be chargeable to any of you:
2Th. 3:9 Not because we have not power,
        but to make ourselves an ensample unto you to follow us
2Th. 3:10 For even when we were with you,
        this we commanded you, that if any would not work, neither should he eat.
2Th. 3:11 For we hear that there are some which walk among you disorderly, working not at all, but are busybodies
2Th. 3:12 Now them that are such we command and exhort by our Lord Jesus Christ,
        that with quietness they work, and eat their own bread.
2Th. 3:13 But ye, brethren, be not weary in well doing.
2Th. 3:14 And if any man obey not our word by this epistle, note that man, and have no company with him, that he may be ashamed.
Col. 2:7 Rooted and built up in him,
      and stablished in THE FAITH as ye have been taught,
      abounding therein with thanksgiving.
Col. 2:8 Beware lest any man spoil you through philosophy and vain deceit,
        after the tradition of men, after the rudiments of the world, and not after Christ.
Col. 2:9 For in him dwelleth all the fulness of the Godhead bodily.

As far as I can determine all theologians teach that, as pictured in ancient documents, has THREE HEADS.  However, this same quality can dwell in believers who do not submit to commercial performance worship:

THE GREEK GODHEAD IN COLOSSIANS 2:9

Heb. 5:8 Though he were a Son, yet learned he obedience by the things which he suffered;

Luc. Icar.9 As to Gods, I need hardly deal with that question. For some of them God is a number; some swear by dogs and geese and plane-trees 
2. Some again banish all other Gods, and attribute the control of the universe to a single one; I got rather depressed on learning how small the supply of divinity was. But I was comforted by the lavish souls who not only make many, but classify; there was a First God, and second and third classes of divinity. Yet again, some regard the divine nature as unsubstantial and without form, while others conceive it as a substance. Then they were not all disposed to recognize a Providence; some relieve the Gods of all care,

-splendor  , lustre, splendor, honor, dignity, excellence,
I. sheen, brightness, brilliance, lustre, splendor.  God is LIGHT with the same meaning as WORD but neither are another god

John 8:12 Then spake Jesus again unto them, saying, I am the light of the world:
        he that followeth me shall not walk in darkness, but shall have the light of life.
John 9:5 As long as I am in the world, I am the light of the world.
John 11:9 Jesus answered, Are there not twelve hours in the day?
        If any man walk in the day, he stumbleth not, because he seeth the light of this world.

THE LATIN GODHEAD IN COLOSSIANS 2:9

Latin Divine: dīvus a god, deity, divine being

A Church of Christ of which Jesus is the Head is commanded to "teach that which has been taught." It has no other function.

Latin Godhead or Divine is: dīvīnĭtas  Divine quality, divine nature, excellence; of the orator
Dīvīnus  I. of or belonging to a deity, divine divina studia colere  divina facta, i. e., religious exercise, divine worship, sacrifice, etc Divine ORIGIN.
2.
The divine, that which comes from God, nihil est divino divinius, Sen. Ep. 66, 11.— 3. That which is under the sanction of a god; a. By divine inspiration, prophetically: “plura divine praesensa et praedicta reperiri
    Divine stŭdĭum , I. a busying one's self about or application to a thing; assiduity, zeal, eagerness, fondness, inclination, desire, exertion, endeavor, study: (b). A place for study, a study, school (late Lat.): “philosophum (se egit) in omnibus studiis, templis, locis,” 

Jesus was filled in a visible-audible sense with God's Word or Logos. That is the Regulative Principle OPPOSITE of personal experiences or comments, rhetoric, singing, playing instruments or acting. The Sabbath never meant a day of worship but REST: REST demands stopping everything so that you can obey the command to teach that which is written for our learning.

Col. 2:10 And ye are complete in him, which is the head of all principality and power:
Col. 2:11 In whom also ye are circumcised
         with the circumcision made without hands,
       in putting off the body of the sins of the flesh by the circumcision of Christ:
Col. 2:12 Buried with him in baptism,
        wherein also ye are risen with him
        through the faith of the operation of God, who hath raised him from the dead.
Col. 2:13 And you, being dead in your sins and the uncircumcision of your flesh,
        hath he quickened together with him,
       having forgiven you all trespasses;
Col. 2:14 Blotting out the handwriting of ordinances
       that was against us,
      which was contrary to us,
     and took it out of the way, nailing it to his cross;
Col. 2:15 And having spoiled principalities and powers,
       he made a shew of them openly, triumphing over them in it.
Col. 2:16 Let no man therefore judge you in meat, or in drink,
      or in respect of an holyday, or of the new moon, or of the sabbath days:
Col. 2:17 Which are a shadow of things to come; but the body is of Christ.
Col. 2:18 Let no man beguile you of your reward
       in a voluntary humility and worshipping of angels,
       intruding into those things which he hath not seen, vainly puffed up by his fleshly mind,
Col. 2:19 And not holding the Head, from which all the body by joints and bands having nourishment ministered, and knit together, increaseth with the increase of God.
Col. 2:20 Wherefore if ye be dead with Christ
       from the rudiments of the world,
       why, as though living IN the world, are ye subject to ordinances,
Col. 2:21 (Touch not; taste not; handle not;
Col. 2:22 Which all are to perish with the using;)
    after the commandments and doctrines of men?
Col. 2:23 Which things have indeed a shew of wisdom in will worship, and humility, and neglecting of the body; not in any honour to the satisfying of the flesh.
