Jeanene  Reese Isaiah 3 Women and Children (lgbt) now rule over you.
Jeanene.Reese.LGBT.MUST.be.Included.html

The Church or Assembly of Christ is defined by the Greek Ekklesia.  This assembly met about once each week. Phoebe was a member of the Greek Ekklesia.. The people presented NOTHING of their own.  They listened to Laws handed down by a higher authority. They READ or LISTENED and then discused and put the laws into effect in places like Cenchrea.  The church is also clearly defined as an assembly for LEARNING.  No one was A TEACHER OVER which would include replacing Scripture with their own songs and sermons.

FIRST: In 1 Corinthians 14 women were not to teach OVER and Paul asked: "Did truth begin with you?" The THEOLOGY (mythology) in most once Christian Universities deny that Father, Son or Holy Scripture is authority for OUR culture.

Very few men have any urge to be Visible and Aubible performing any religious ritual: most worship by FALLING ON THEIR FACE.
A smaller number of females want to perform and will not tolerate it.  Therefore, women or men who resist LEARNING IN SILENCE will accept the OFFENSE and wait for the Mill Stones to be measured.

SECOND:
Both male and female are to be SILENT in the Once each week assembly

1Tim. 2:4 Who will have all men to be saved, [kept safe]
        and to come unto the knowledge of the truth.
        [Word, Logos, Regulative Principle outlawing rhetoric, singing, playing, acting or PAY TO PLAY.]
1Tim. 2:5 For there is ONE GOD,
        and one mediator between God and men,
        the MAN Christ Jesus;
1Tim. 2:6 Who gave himself a ransom for all,
        to be TESTIFIED in due time.

Jesus defined Holy Scripture to be READ as the Prophecies CONCERNING ME. That is the Last Will and Testament of Jesus., No Christian could be so vile that they think they should ride on widows and the working class to ALTER the will even of a evil person.

The Holy Spirit meaning God put His WORDS into the MOUTH of Isaiah and warned that women and "boys" would rule over you.

Isaiah.3.Women.and.Children.Rule.Over.Them.html

Isaiah 3:12 As for my people, children are their oppressors, and women rule over them.
O my people,
they that lead thee cause thee to err, and destroy the way of thy paths.
mŭlĭer as a term of reproach, a woman, i. e. a coward, poltroon: arbĭtror to make a decision,

Boys: -Effeminoto make womanish, effeminate, to enervate: “fortitudinis praeceptailla elocutio
res ipsas effeminat,”  “mollis, luxuriosus, dissolutus): ne quid effeminatum aut molle sit,

Cic. Off. 1, 35, 129
; cf. id. Tusc. 4, 30: “intolerabile est servire impuro, impudico, effeminato, 
Cic. Planc. 35.86 When no one knew what were the feelings of those men who by means of their armies, and their arms, and their riches, were the most powerful men in the state, then that voice,    
    rendered insane
by its infamous debaucheries,

    made effeminate by its attendance on holy altars,
    kept crying out in a most ferocious manner that both these men
         and the consuls were acting in concert with him.
Needy men were armed against the rich,  abandoned men against the good, slaves against their masters.

Aristophane c. 392 B.C. defined what happened when WOMEN took control.

The Feminization of Christianity

The Wimber-Fuller patternSEE Sara.Barton.The.Song.of.Solomon  my pastoral impulse this week is to proclaim the message of the Song of Songs. And here’s why: We desperately need public, communal language about sex, and we have an oft-overlooked resource in the Bible. I regularly read Song of Songs with college students in a Bible course I teach. And in that conversation, I own up to the fact that I like sex, that twenty-five plus years into marriage, my husband and I are still into each other, still engage in pillow talk with each other, and that we are learning with each passing year how to be more intimate with each other – sexually, emotionally, and spiritually.
        Song of Songs is unique in several ways, one of which is the fact that it’s the only place in Scripture where a woman’s voice leads the conversation (the woman speaks 61 of 117 verses). In light of what we’ve heard lately, it seems like a good time to let a wise woman speak about sexual activity that’s right and good, a woman who not only speaks but sings and shouts about intimate, sensual, erotic passion. And in all her talk about kissing, touching, tasting, and smelling, she does not offend with crass or vulgar language. She exemplifies how it’s possible to speak about sex and intimacy appropriately. We might do well to let her teach us a thing or two.

Laura Buffington SEX and SALVATION: the Song of Solomon or the Hieros Gamos.  With sex playing such a prominent role in the art and life of our culture, the church would be wise to reclaim the metaphor of sex as salvation. Making the whole story of our lives about the salvation found in physical intimacy is to miss the grander picture of intimate salvation promised to Beloved Humanity by God the Lover.

Answering the Church of Christ A Review

There is One God and One Mediator Between God and Man, the MAN Christ Jesus. Galatians 3:28 says that NEITHER Male nor Female can Replace Jesus Christ as the only Rabbi. That is Marked by READING or SPEAKING that which is written for our LEARNING.  Learning is the One-Piece Pattern for those who know that God is God and they are not.

Sorcery or Witchcraft is enabled by any musical or metrical performance.  Jesus SPOKE what God put into His MOUTH (the meaning of SPIRIT) without measure or METRON. To make it hard for those OF the World, Kosmos, Ecumenical or the kingdom making war against the Kingdom of Christ, God's SPIRIT delivered NO WORDS to anyone in Scripture as LYRIC POETRY which permits a LYRE.

There is not a single command, example or remote inference of the godly people who assembled in the synagogue or ekklesia of SINGING with or without tone-making machines.

1Tim. 2:11 Let the woman LEARN in silence with all subjection. [under control]
1Timothy 2:12 But I suffer not a woman to teach,
        nor to usurp authority over the man,
        but to be in silence.

1Cor. 14:34 Let your women keep silence in the churches: for it is not permitted unto them to speak; but they are commanded to be under obedience, as also saith the law.
4601. σιγάω sigao, see-gah´-o; from 4602; to keep silent (transitively or intransitively): — keep close (secret, silence), hold peace

1Tim. 2:11 Let the woman learn in silence with all subjection.
1Tim. 2:12 But I suffer not a woman to teach, nor to usurp authority over the man, but to be in silence.


Zech. 2:13 Be silent, O all flesh, before the LORD: for he is raised up out of his holy habitation.
Holy Temple

The lust for the PULPIT ignores 1 Corinthians 1 where Paul explains Isaiah 33 proving there will be no PODIUMS nor Takers of SHEKELS in the Kingdom of Christ

1Cor. 14:28 But if there be no interpreter, let him keep silence in the church; and let him speak to himself, and to God.

1Cor. 14:34 Let your women keep SILENCE in the churches: [g1577] ekklesia

        but they are commanded to be under obedience, as also saith the law.

The Church or ekkled LAWS FROM A HIGHER authority. They spoke to INFORM the congregation. They produced nothing (songs osia meets roughly 49 times during the year.  A president or presiding officer calls the assembly. The assembly met to rear sermons) of their own.  The Civil Synagogue had much the meaning.

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

THE PATTERN OF JESUS:

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

THE PATTERN OF PAUL
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 SINGULAR PATTERN FOR THE CHURCH:

Eph. 2:19 Now therefore ye are no more strangers and foreigners,
        but fellowcitizens with the saints, and of the household of God;
Eph. 2:20 And are built upon [EDUCATED BY] the foundation of the apostles and prophets,
        Jesus Christ himself being the chief [Only Rabbi or Teacher] corner stone; [The Angle, secret, silent and small]

WHY DEBBIE'S MENTORS LED HER ASTRAY.

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

PAUL AUTHORIZED NO ONE TO FABRICATE SONGS OR SERMONS ABOUT HIS LETTERS!!

Acts 15:31 Which when they had READ, they rejoiced for the consolation.
Acts 23:34 And when the governor had READ the letter, he asked of what province he was. And when he understood that he was of Cilicia;
2Cor. 1:13 For we WRITE none other things unto you, than what ye READ or acknowledge; and I trust ye shall acknowledge even to the end;
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.
2Cor. 3:15 But even unto this day, when Moses is READ, the vail is upon their heart.
Eph. 3:4 Whereby, when ye READ, ye may UNDERSTAND my knowledge in the mystery of 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.
1Th. 5:27 I charge you by the Lord that this epistle be READ unto all the holy brethren.
1Tim. 4:13 Till I come, give attendance to READING, to exhortation, to doctrine.
Rev. 5:4 And I wept much, because no man was found worthy to open and to READ the book, neither to look thereon. also in the church of the Laodiceans; and that ye

Both Eve and Miriam are the examples FROM THE LAW
Theophilus of Autolycus II. XXVIII
And Adam having been cast out of Paradise, in this condition knew Eve his wife, whom God had formed into a wife for him out of his rib. And this He did, not as if He were unable to make his wife separately, but God foreknew that man would call upon a number of gods. And having this prescience, and knowing that through the serpent error would introduce a number of gods which had no existence,... 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 [apodedrake/nai] 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,"
THE LUST TO BE SCHOOLMASTER IS ANTICHRISTIAN
Gal. 3:25 But after that faith is come, we are no longer under a schoolmaster.
Gal. 3:26 For ye are all the children [Students] of God by faith in Christ Jesus.
Gal. 3:27 For [enim: what I means is that] as many of you as have been baptized into Christ have put on Christ.
Gal. 3:28 There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither bond nor free, there is neither male nor female: for ye are all one in Christ Jesus.

1Tim. 2:4 Who will have all men to be saved, and to come unto the knowledge of the truth.
1Tim. 2:5 For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus;
1Tim. 2:6 Who gave himself a ransom for all, to be testified in due time.
1Tim. 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.
1Tim. 2:12 But I suffer not a woman to teach, nor to usurp authority over the man, but to be in silence.

Paul would not have to warn a Christian, Disciple or Student of that which is written for our learning.  The lust to preside is the MARK of people who believe that God was ignorant.

Debbie Boggs etal: While WE want to be considerate of feelings and comfort  zones,  WE should be much more interested in being obedient to God and considering what He desires.  “Am I now seeking the favor of men, or of God?  Or am I trying to please men?  If I were still pleasing men, I should not be a servant of Christ.”  

ALL of the female silence passages recognize that women were always the CLERGY in pagan temples. Women could fall into charismatic ecstasy induced by drugs or music.  A male who would self-exhibit by singing and playing an instrument was always marked as effeminate or worse.

Paul explains why music and witchcraft intends to recrucify Christ.

FIRST: FULFILLMENT: THE SUDDEN RISE OF FEMINIST-EFFEMINATE IS THE THEOLOGY RIGHT ON TIME C. ad 2000

JEANENE P. REESE . Jesus freed males from the role of domination that belongs to the fallen WORLD, in order that they can be truly male. On behalf of women Jesus acted as the model human standing AGAINST the patriarchal system, bringing women into the new order where sex distinctions no longer determine rank and worth.

Lynn Anderson The Beginning of Musical Idolatry

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.

They are mortally ignorant that Moses was commanded how to subdivide the tribes down to groups of families as small as ten. The leaders were to READ and REHEARSE the written word or as delivered from Moses.

Hab 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?

Hab 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.

Hab 2: 20 But the LORD is in his holy temple let all the earth keep silence before him

But, as Antithesis:1Corinthians 14:28 But if there be no interpreter,

Because they CHOOSE to be ignorant they thought that silence gave them permission to rise up against God and PLAY. That was vocal and instrumental rejoicing.

For that offense, the Levites jumped at the right to execute 3,000 of their brethren.  God slapped them with The book of The law and sentenced to to captivity and death BEYOND BABYLON.

The Spirit OF Christ ordained the Qahal, synagogue, Ekklesia or Church of Christ (the Rock) in the wilderness. This was for reading only an excluded vocal or instrumental rejoicing or what we jokingly call preaching

Rest is:

Anapauo (g373) an-up-ow'-o; from 303 and 3973; (reflex.) to repose (lit. or fig. [be exempt], remain); by impl. to refresh:- take ease, refresh, (give, take) rest.

Anapausis (g372) an-ap'-ow-sis; from 373; intermission; by impl. recreation:- rest. When you hear people yelling for you to do this here religious program, it is not God. Believe me. I tell my folks that they are reloading me with the burden Jesus died to remove just by anouncing (and anouncing and anouncing) all of those "busy" programs. All good of course, but not added to our "to do list" by Jesus.

So, you have heard it straight from Jesus:"Go enjoy an ice cream cone, sleep late, go for a long walk in the forest or along the beach, and just relax."

Euripides, Heracles (ed. E. P. Coleridge)  Never will I cease to link in one the Graces and the Muses, [675] sweetest union. Never may I live among uneducated boors, but ever may I find a place among the crowned! [680] Yes, still the aged singer lifts up his voice of bygone memories: still is my song of the triumphs of Heracles, whether Bromius the giver of wine is near, or the strains of the seven-stringed lyre and the Libyan pipe are rising; [685] not yet will I cease to sing the Muses' praise, my patrons in the dance.
Theophilus.Autolycus.II.html 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.

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," not something evil in itself, like rape or theft. Eating pork or having sex during menstruation are ritually unclean.

Leonard.Allen.Molech.Col.Wiki.gif

ALL of the foundation upon which people are willing to lie, cheat and steal the churches of the owners is a based on a COMMON list of passages which mention an INSTRUMENT all of which God said produces NOISE.  Most of this would be the screeching and screaming in the fashion of modern ROCK which is the MARK of the always-connection between performance speaking, self exhibition and strange sexuality made visible at Mount Sinai..  ALL of the use of instruments was confined to the God-Abandoned Civil-Military-Clergy which which WORSHIPPED the starry host including Apollo or Apollyon the Jews brought with them from Egypt.

The Serpent in the garden of Eden was the same Babylon Mother of Harlots in Revelation 17.  In Revelation 18 her ministers are "lusted after fruits" (same as Amos 8). Jesus in His new STATE of 'Holy Spirit' calls the speakers, singers or instrument players SORCERERS.  John affirms the universal MARK of BURNING when he says "THEY WILL BE CAST ALIVE INTO THE LAKE OF FIRE." When God put His Words into the Mouth [the meaning of SPIRIT] of Isaiah and Ezekiel, Lucifer (Apollon) is called the singing and harp-playing harlot.

The ONLY Active verbs connected to the Word, Logos or Regulative Principle are SPEAK or READ with no human ENHANCEMENT.

WE WILL POST MANY  "RESOURCES" TO UNDERSTAND THE MEANING OF THE UPRIGHT, TALKING SERPENT.  THE SPIRIT OF CHRIST WHICH IS GOD PUTTING HIS WORD INTO THE MOUTH OF ISAIAH AND EZEKIEL, USING A MELODY WORD DEFINES TYRE AS "LUCIFER THE SINGING AND HARP-PLAYING HARLOT IN THE GARDEN OF EDEN."

Cantillation signs guide the reader in applying a chant to Biblical readings. This chant is technically regarded as a ritualized form of speech intonation rather than as a musical exercise like the singing of metrical hymns: for this reason Jews always speak of saying or reading a passage rather than of singing it. (In Yiddish the word is leynen 'read', derived from Latin legere, giving rise to the Jewish English verb "to leyn".)

The Philipedium: In most western European languages, the word for “read” starts with the letter “L”. These languages can be divided into two main groups — those of Latin origin and those of Germanic origin. In each of the Latin languages (Italian, Spanish, French, etc.), the modern word is derived from legere, the Latin word for “read”. The Italian word is still leggere, essentially unchanged from the Latin. In the other Romance languages, the “g” sound was lost, and so we have leer in Spanish, ler in Portuguese, and lire in French

Lexis.Ode.gif
The Greek and Latin Psallo means to "pluck something with your fingers but never with a plectron" or guitar pick.

APOLLO OR APOLLYON was brought by the Jews from Egypt.  He is the father of "musical melody" and "shooting arrows."  The word Psallo is used primarilly of Shooting Arrows into the literal heart. He carried his Lyre to shoot "love arrows" into those who would not submit to his sexual advances.  That is why the command is but everyone perverts.

SPEAKING the Biblical Text.  It can all be can be read or chanted but none of it can be sung is a tuneful sense.
ODE and PSALLO are IN the heart or silent because both are marks of the SORCERESS or BEAST.

All words such as KOMA, beWITCHING, Sorcery, Enchantment are said to be caused by MUSIC

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 NOISEY 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,

I will make thee a TERROR, and thou shalt be no more:

ALL musical sounds create TERROR in those who claim that they bring GOD close.

When all of this 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.

And altogether the ancient philosoj)hy of the Greeks appears to have been very much addicted to music; and on this account they judged Apollo to have been the most musical and the wisest of the gods, and Orpheus of the demigods. And they called every one who devoted himself to the study of this art a sophist, as
Aeschylus does in the verse where he says — And then the sophist sweetly struck the lyre.

Musae (Mousai). In Greek mythology the Muses were originally the nymphs of springs, whose waters gave inspiration, such as Hippocrené, Castalia, etc.; then goddesses of song in genera. They are all female and are considered goddesses dwelling in Olympus, who at the meals of the gods sing sweetly to the lyre of Apollo. They are the nine daughters of Zeus.

APOLLON LEADER OF THE MUSES

The.Mark.of.The.Beastia.html
  1. God rescued Israel from Captivity by pure grace: because he promised it. His justice would have left them to self destruct because He says they were WORSE than the nations.
  2. God gave them The Book of The Covenant of Grace: the Abrahamic covenant made by God IN Christ.
  3. They refused to listen to God and demanded a mediator (that clergy folly)
  4. Israel rebuked God by rising up to "play" which was instrumental worship of the Egyptian (etal) trinity under the image of Apis the bull calf.  "The pantheon included bull, cow and calf divinities . "Young braided girls, dressed in short skirts with bands crossed over their breasts, are shown performing sacred songs and dances for Hathor [female cow] who are accompanied by women muscians, playing flutes or clapping their hands in rhythm. Over the dancers and musicians in the lower register is a powerful invocation to the starry snake goddess of the night, Hathor "Gold," whom they call on to rise and be propitiated though the dances they perform in her honor.


    Real men cannot be induced: we had to wait for David before female roles were performed by male Levites but only after they had been turned over to worship the starry host: COSMIC WORSHIP.

  5. The golden calf represented real bull calves worshiped musically in Egypt. Probably a Babylonian connection to SUN worship to which God abandoned Israel because of musical idolatry.
    1. The Spirit OF Christ affirms that God never commanded such sacrifices and proves that the Mount Sinai musical idolatry was without redemption.

(a) Eros is approved, and its excesses condoned, when directed towards superior youths approaching manhood.
(b) It appears to be condemned, in so far as parents forbid their boys to converse with “erastae.” The explanation of this ambiguous attitude must be sought in the principle laid down above, that the moral quality of an act depends upon the conditions of its performance.
GRACE is Kharizo 2. gratify or indulge a humour or passion, 3. in erotic sense, grant favours to a man,
give up as a favour by dropping a law aimed at him,
Those who willingly infiltrate and impose musical instruments into a peaceable church justify the deliberate sowing of discord based on false teachings of all of the "instrument" passages also preach that GRACE will cover them.

Grace Centered Magazine:  3.06.11.
This forum has a Church of Christ thread dedicated to abusing those who do not deliberately reject the clear teaching of the Word and recorded history. A common lie is that the Church Fathers had nothing bad to say about the use of instruments based on Scripture. We have refuted that to prove that NO ONE used instruments in the churches but refute the Jews who did because they had been abandoned to Canaanite Baalism or the worship of the starry host.

See Jay Guin Review for the list of New Wineskins papers.
Debbie Boggs in Navigating the Winds of Change shows how to slowly change people's "comfort zones" so that they become comfortable with that which they know is not Scriptural.  This says that one opinionated person has the right to manipulate your mind so that you gradually love to become the proverbial "boiled frog." Unfortunately, when such people learn how to manipulate you it becomes their religion and your weakness lets them act out their tyranical impulses. The result is that the slippery slope leads to destruction of that which you PRESUMED to create in your own image. I have collected many notes about Anderson's method of "shepherding" but minimalists understand that sheep will not rest and feed around the sounds of rushing waters.  I am sure that this represents his views which intimidated the elders and resulted in a full-blown rock and roll show.
Debbie Boggs etal: While WE want to be considerate of feelings and comfort  zones,  WE should be much more interested in being obedient to God and considering what He desires.  “Am I now seeking the favor of men, or of God?  Or am I trying to please men?  If I were still pleasing men, I should not be a servant of Christ.” Gal.1:10.  Rather than asking what kind of worship we are comfortable with, each of us should be asking what kind of worship is pleasing to God.

The Sabbath or Rest and the Church as Ekklesia CANNOT supply anything but their EARS.

Worship literally means to fall on your face, like a dog licking its masters feet: By Grace Paul's ONLY worship word was to give heed or attendance to the reading of the Word of God and not those of men or women to please them.  There is no Bible or history which can insinuate MUSICAL PERFORMANCE into the worship of decent, high class people.  Paul excluded the indecent people in Romans 15 and defined a speaking assembly to please the literate and decent people:

        For it seems to me that arguing about poetry
        is comparable to the
wine-parties of common market-folk.
These people, owing to their inability to carry on a familiar conversation over their wine by means of their
own voices and discussions- [347d]
        -
such is their lack of education--put a premium on flute-girls
        by hiring the extraneous voice of the
flute at a high price,
        and carry on their
intercourse by means of its utterance.

Jesus consigned the pipers, singers and dancers to the marketplace.

Alawys approved
: - [347d] But where the party consists of thorough gentlemen who have had a proper education, you will see neither flute-girls nor dancing-girls nor harp-girls, but only the company contenting themselves with their own conversation, and none of these fooleries and frolics--

EVIL: Those who were ignorant or of the lower classes always sought musicians because they were unable to hwww a conversation. [Romans 14] Jesus consigned the "pipers, singers and dancers" to the Agora or marketplace.
GOOD: Those who were educated and decent "cast out" the musicians so that dialog was possible. That is what Paul commanded. [Romans 15]

-Plato in Republic Book III did not envision (nor did the Bible so translate) that such piping and strumming have any "abiding value" but as the Septuagint translates Amos, music was just "fleeting pleasure." In no sense did Plato permit the parasites of Lucian to take the place of the god:

EVIL: "If a man, then, it seems, [398a] who was capable by his cunning of assuming (pantomimic art) 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 (we) 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,
after pouring myrrh down over his head and crowning him with fillets of wool (taring and feathering him)
GOOD: but we ourselves, for our souls' good, should continue to employ the more austere and less delightful poet and tale-teller,
who would imitate the diction of the good man and would tell his tale
in the patterns which we prescribed in the beginning,
when we set out to educate our swwwiers."
Based on the need for music as a comfort zone for the whole week we should ask whether sitting down and listening to the Word of God for a few minutes without music deprives them of the opiate they need to make it through life.  Reading and listening is not addictive: music is a highly addictive drug (endorphins) inducer.

More troubling is that they usurp the roles of the elders and the collective body who are the "owners" of their community comfort zone. Evangelism, on the other hand, is the role of those claiming to be "located missionaries." Those with talent are commanded to use it to minister to others: those who speak in the assembly are commanded to speak as the oracle of God. The words for speak are defined and proven in the ancient texts to be the opposite of poetry or music which was used to deceive.

They make the claim that not using machines for doing hard work in the assembly is a form of mental illness.
"A comfort zone denotes that limited set of behaviors that a person will engage without becoming anxious. A comfort zone is a type of mental conditioning that causes a person to create and operate mental boundaries that are not real. Such boundaries create an unfounded sense of security

Of Anxiety: Somatically the body prepares the organism to deal with threat (known as an emergency reaction): blood pressure and heart rate are increased, sweating is increased, bloodflow to the major muscle groups is increased, and immune and digestive system functions are inhibited. Externally, somatic signs of anxiety may include pale skin, sweating, trembling, and pupillary dilation."

Cyclopaedia p 133 In music, the burden is an archaic term[1] for the drone or base in some musical instruments, and the pipe or part that plays it, such as a bagpipe or pedal point in an organ. Burden also refers to a part of a song that is repeated at the end of each stanza, i.e. the chorus or refrain. The term comes from the French bourdon, a staff; or a pipe made in the form of a staff, imitating the gross murmurs of bees or drones. This is what was anciently called proslambanomenos.

More sinister is the well-documented fact in the Bible and ancient literature is that speaking the Word of God is always the mark of godly people while "making" Rock and Roll music is always the mark of the spiritual harlot, the ignorant and the very lowest classes.

NEXT: LOOKING AT THE COMMON PROOF TEXTS--out of order!

Debbie Boggs etal: Gal. 1:4 Who gave himself for our sins, that he might deliver us from this present evil world,
        according to the will of God and our Father:
 
This evil world in Greek includes the LADED BURDENS (songs) which creates spiritual anxiety through religious ritual.
-Poneros in a physical sense: oppressed by toils, ponêrotatos kaiaristos, of See Shield of Heracles, for the ugly meaning of the muses 2. of things, toilsome, painful, grievous, erga  274 ; phortion  [The burden Jesus removed]

Erga
involves a musical instrument such as those handled (without authority) by Jubal and are defined as machines for doing hard work."

-Organon , to, ( [ergon,] ) I. an implement, instrument, engine of any kind
-Ergon  [Ergô] I.work, 1. in Il. mostly of deeds of war, 3. a hard piece of work, a hard task, Il.: also, a shocking deed or act,
A. instrument, implement, tool, for making or doing a thing
3. musical instrument the "organ" of Jubal.


The Bible says that Jubal handled musical instruments WITHOUT AUTHORITY.

Then and now everyone knows that making music is works-intensive and "legalism" meaning making music to force the laws of Apollyon or Abaddon as NOMOS.

-Aristotle Politics 1341b and all the instruments that require manual skill. And indeed there is a reasonable foundation for the story that was told by the ancients about the flute. The tale goes that Athena found a flute and threw it away. Now it is not a bad point in the story that the goddes 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, 
Appealing to Aldus Huxley to validate turning from the Word to the performing arts must accept he also said that this performance induces a perverted manner into the habitual performers.  Plato observed the same thing.
Organum: a device, plan, contrivance; esp. a trick, artifice, stratagem. Of musical instruments, a pipe,  Vulg. Gen. 4, 21  

Gen 4:21 And his brother's name was Jubal: he was the father of all such as handle the harp and organ.

The word handle flows naturally from the musical enchanter in the garden of Eden who wholly seduced Eve in a sexual sense, to TOPHETH or HELL once king's Solomon's music grove in Jerusalem.

H8610 taphas taw-fas' A primitive root; to manipulate, that is, seize; chiefly to capture, wield; specifically to overlay; figuratively to use unwarrantably:--catch, handle, (lay, take) hwww (on, over), stop, X surely, surprise, take.

Trop., a device, plan, contrivance; esp. a trick, artifice, stratagem: “at nunc disturba quas statuisti machinas,” i. e. abandon your schemes, Plaut. Ps. 1, 5, 137:

Paul warning about passing judgment did not give others the right  to wreck my life whileI have no right to condemn you: passing judgment is IMPOSING things into the assembly which causes discord. It is consistent with those imposing music that they take into account the loss of a large part of the "owners" because they have a higher use and appeal to the law of  IMMINENT DOMAIN. In Paul's words, creating such mental arousal as to separate the body is to CRUCIFY CHRIST to yourself all over.

The purpose of instruments under the law as well as psalms as warrior chants was to magnify their power to delibertly disturb ot sow discord: they are therefore violent people. Passing judgment is imposing pagan musical rituals to sow discord. 

Dis-turbo I.to drive asunder, to separate by violence, to throw into disorder, disturb. judicium , to give his vote; of a judge (different from sententiam ferre, to pass sentence)

Musical instruments bring on the WRATH which Paul tried to prevent by allowing only senior males to perform publically:

Orgao I. to be getting ready to bear, growing ripe for something, II. of men, like sphrigaô, swell with lust, wax wanton, be rampant, aphrodisiois mainomenos [Zoe: mad women in Corinth], to be in heat, desire sexual intercourse, organ pros tên homilian, 2. generally, to be eager or ready, to be excitedjudge under the influence of passion.

Paul restricted women specificially whose flailing unholy arms brings on wrath or an ORGY.  This spiritual anxiety Jesud outlawed along with the burden laders is what PREVENTS the understanding of the Word as the only true purpose for the assembly.

Peter said that we should ave us from this CROOKED generation. All of history knows that music was for "entertainment" only and appealed--according to the classics and church fathers--to the lower classes. This crooked generation was the enemy beginning with the "serpent" in the garden of Eden who is defined throughout that area as a Musical Enchanter(ess).  Isaiah defines "Lucifer as the singing and harp playing prostitute in the garden of Eden."
Acts 2:40 And with many other words did he testify and exhort, saying, Save yourselves from this untoward [crooked] generation.
The untoward or perverted or crooked generation were MARKED:

-Skolion [sub. melos] a song which went round at banquets, sung to the lyre by the guests, Ar.; so called from its zigzag course-- each guest who sung holding a myrtle-branch murrinê, which he passed across the table to any one he chose.

This is the only meaning of "musical" melody and Jesus and Paul calls it crooked. This was invented by Sappho as the prototypical Lesbian. Aristonexus is used by Burgess, Johnson, Payne etc as their authority for PLUCKING in church.

What Melic poetry like Sappho's actually was is best comprehended in the light of Plato's definition of melos, that it is 'compounded out of three things, speech, music, and rhythm.' Sappho is said by Athenaeus, quoting Menaechmus and Aristoxenus, to have been the first of the Greek poets to use the Pêktis (pêktis), a foreign instrument of uncertain form, a kind of harp (cf. fr. 122), which was played by the fingers without a plectrum. Wharton's Life of Sappho 

-Lesbia. 16. But whenever these poems were written, they spring from experiences that did not touch deeply the soul of the writer. A passing fancy, a moment's passion, an evanescent humor brought them forth. But at Rome, and not long after he arrived at Rome, Catullus met the mastering passion of his life, and beside the verses to which it gave birth the melodious chamber ditties of Horace and the elaborated passions of the elegiasts are but as tinkling cymbals.

To the woman who exercised this wonderful power over him he gives the name of Lesbia. But more often he is not content with a name, and the familiar terms of endearment flow from his lips with a newer and deeper meaning;

for he delights to feel that though his experience is on the outside like that of other men,
his mistress is peerless in virtues and his love for her a love passing that of women 

Now, HERE is the audition for the Musical Worship Team.

(a) from skolios crooked, because of the crooked order of the singers, the bad singers being passed over, or the couches being crookedly arranged, later, the omission of the bad singers being ascribed to the difficulty or non-social character of the songs skolion, or it was said that the songs were easy, but appeared difficult to drunken revellers,  
Debbie Boggs etal: Gal. 1:5 To whom be glory for ever and ever. Amen.
 
Paul defined the ekklesia or synagogue in Romans 15 from which he EXCLUDED "Areskos" or self-pleasure which includes ALL of the hypocritic arts.  The literature describes a "demagogue who appeases the mases using the performing arts" and connects the word "kleptoma."

The ONLY way he defines a way to GLORIFY God or praise God is to speak with ONE MIND and ONE MOUTH using "that which is written." This educates, comforts with Scripture and PREVENTS disunity.  It is not possible to watch performing musicians without giving the glory to THEM: that is why they perform.

Debbie Boggs etal: Gal. 1:6 I marvel that ye are so soon removed from him that called you into the grace of Christ unto another gospel:

Because the "gospel" gives us freedom from any but those who let us REST and learn the word, the gospel is perverted by music or any kind of theatrical or hypocritic performance

Debbie Boggs etal: Gal. 1:8 But though we, or an angel from heaven, preach any other gospel unto you than that which we have preached unto you, let him be accursed.
Gal. 1:9 As we said before, so say I now again, If any man preach any other gospel unto you than that ye have received, let him be accursed.
Gal. 1:10 For do I now persuade men, or God? or do I seek to please men? for if I yet pleased men, I should not be the servant of Christ.

Self pleasure is what Paul OUTLAWED for the ekklesia, synagogu or school of the Bible:

Rom 15:1 WE then that are strong ought to bear the infirmities of the weak, and not to please ourselves
The weak are the infirm and that includes lots of old people and most people to some extent. What the performers think is spiritual is creating the "spiritual anxiety" died to remove. No one goes away from a "musical" performance not being damaged by decibel poisoning and a "drug" high.

II.  Inspired Scripture

I believe in a God who speaks clearly through His Inspired Word.  His important truths are readily apparent throughout the whole of scripture.  Certainly there are finer nuances to be gleaned by deeper study, but He does not leave us to guess where He stands and then hope to escape the wrath of hell if we guess wrong.
 I believe that all scripture is “inspired by God” (2Tim. 3:16). 

I have heard it said many times that the Bible doesn’t address the issue of instrumental worship for the church and that it is conspicuously missing. 

Sorry, but I have never heard that the Bible doesn't address instruments except from instrumental apologists: I think they meant that the Bible did not authorize it.  The most overwhelming issue of the old Testament is the clergy being abandoned to pagan music and the prophets universally condemning them.  

Some claim that God is silent and his silence gives ME the right to impose new practices whih BECOME the words of God which cannot be disputed. And so totally inspired that they claim that God COMMANDED instrumental praise and we must not be disobedient.  

When God brought Israel out of Egypt by pure grace, He gave them The Book of the Covenant. They agreed to keep it but refused to listen to the voice of God. While Moses was on the mountain getting a written code of grace, the people rose up in musical idolatry. For that transgression God removed Grace and gave them The Book of The Law and turned them over to worship the starry host.

Exod 32:1 AND when the people saw that Moses delayed to come down out of the mount, the people gathered themselves together unto Aaron, and said unto him, Up, make us gods, which shall go before us; for as for this Moses, the man that brought us up out of the land of Egypt, we wot not what is become of him.

Exod 32:2 And Aaron said unto them, Break off the golden earrings, which are in the ears of your wives, of your sons, and of your daughters, and bring them unto me.

Exod 32:3 And all the people brake off the golden earrings which were in their ears, and brought them unto Aaron.

Exod 32:4 And he received them at their hand, and fashioned it with a graving tool, after he had made it a molten calf: and they said, These be thy gods, O Israel, which brought thee up out of the land of Egypt.

Exod 32:5 And when Aaron saw it, he built an altar before it; and Aaron made proclamation, and said, To morrow is a feast to the Lord.

Exod 32:6 And they rose up early on the morrow, and offered burnt offerings, and brought peace offerings; and the people sat down to eat and to drink, and rose up to play.

"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).

"In the New Testament there is nowhere any emphasis laid on the musical form of the hymns; and in particular none on instrumental accompaniment whereas this is significantly paganism." (Delling, Gerhard, Worship in the New Testament, trans. Percy Scott Phil. Westminster press, 1962, p. 86).

Both the Greek and Latin define this is MUSICAL IDOLATRY;

Tertullian De Spectaculus Chapter X. Theatrical Performance and Religion 

Let us pass on now to theatrical exhibitions, which we have already shown have a common origin with the circus [Circe=church], and bear like idolatrous designations-even as from the first they have borne the name of "Ludi," and equally minister to idols.

They resemble each other also in their pomp, having the same procession to the scene of their display from temples and altars, and that mournful profusion of incense and blood,
.........with music of pipes and trumpets,
........ all under the direction of the soothsayer and the undertaker,
........ those two foul masters of funeral rites and sacrifices.

2 Peter 2:13 And shall receive the reward of unrighteousness,
..........as they that count it pleasure to riot in the day time.
..........Spots they are and blemishes, sporting themselves
..........with their own deceivings [delusions] while they feast with you;
..........All musicians and rhetoricians are equated to parasites.

Exod 32:17 And when Joshua heard the noise of the people as they shouted, he said unto Moses, There is a noise of war in the camp.

Lam. 2:6 And he hath 
        1. violently taken away his tabernacle, as if it were of a garden:
        2. he hath destroyed his places of the assembly: [h4150 synagogues: good and bad]
        the LORD hath caused the solemn feasts and sabbaths to be forgotten in Zion,
        and hath despised in the indignation of his anger the king and the priest.

Hos 8:3 Israel hath cast off the thing that is good: the enemy shall pursue him.

Hos 8:4 They have set up kings, but not by me: they have made princes, and I knew it not: of their silver and their goldhave they made them idols, that they may be cut off.

Hos 8:5 Thy calf, O Samaria, hath cast thee off; mine anger is kindled against them: how long will it be ere they attain to innocency?

Hos. 13:11 I gave thee a king in mine anger, and took him away in my wrath.

3. The Lord hath cast off his altar (candlestick), he hath abhorred his sanctuary,
he hath given up
into the hand of the enemy the walls of her palaces;
they have
made a noise in the house  [Temple] of the Lord, as in the day of a solemn feast. Lam 2:7

WES: 2:7 They - The enemies with their triumphs and blasphemies, made as great a noise, as those that sang holy songs, or played on instruments, were wont to make to the glory of God.

Exod 32:18 And he said, It is not the voice of them that shout for mastery, neither is it the voice of them that cry for being overcome; but the noise of them that sing do I hear.

Paul warned both the Romans and Corinthians about this musical idolatry

1Co.10:7 Neither be ye idolaters, as were some of them; as it is written, The people sat down to eat and drink, and rose up to play.

And among the Maenad cries his voice rings deep:  “Go, Bacchae, go, Bacchae, with the luxury of Tmolus that flows with gold  [155]  sing of Dionysus, beneath the heavy beat of drums, celebrating in delight the god of delight with Phrygian shouts and cries, [160]  when the sweet-sounding sacred pipe sounds a sacred playful tune suited [165] to the wanderers, to the mountain, to the mountain!” And the Bacchante, rejoicing like a foal with its grazing mother, rouses her swift foot in a gamboling dance

The Bible is NOT lyric poetry. 
Debbie Boggs etal: Is not the Old Testament part of our Bible?  Is it not part of all scripture?  Was it not written to teach us about God (Ro. 15:4) and what He values (love, justice, mercy, faith, worship, etc.) and what He hates (evil, idolatry, etc.)?  When the early church gathered to worship, what scripture did they study together - not the New Testament - it had not been written yet.  What was their hymnbook? - the psalms, which over and over include mandates to use instruments

Rom 15:4  “For everything that was written in the past was written to teach us, so that through endurance and the encouragement of the Scriptures we might have hope.”

Paul excludes the diversities of Romans 15 and defines the ekklesia or synagogue or school of the Bible in Romans 15: the teaching was done by speaking "that which is written" using one mind and one mouth. Self-pleasure excludes all form of theatrics especially exhibitionism which was a female or perverted mark.

This was written for our learning including telling us that Israel fell from Grace because of musical idolatry.  Because there is no exception to this radical condemnation, it is not possible for anyone taking an honest look at the text to conclude that it teaches us to DO that which caused God to abandon them to musical idolatry in national-only animal sacrifices.
1Cor. 10:6 Now these things were our examples,
        to the intent we should not lust after evil things, as they also lusted.
1Cor. 10:7 Neither be ye idolaters, as were some of them; as it is written,
        The people sat down to eat and drink, and rose up to play.

"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 gwwwen calf." (Smith's Bible Dictionary, Music, p. 589).

"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)

Anton Marks "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 priestessess or prophetesses were highly trained with musical instruments, cultic songs and be able to join in the religious dance.

1Cor. 10:11 Now all these things happened unto them for ensamples: and they are written for our admonition, upon whom the ends of the world are come.  
When Paul addressed those areas where pagan singing with instruments--and music included the whole body--he commanded that the SPEAK "that which is written" (Rom 15), The Spirit (Eph 5; John 6:63) or the Word of Christ (Col 3.) These were all forms of the BOOK of Psalms or other inspired text.  Modern writers do not write inspired Scripture.

Where there were numerous prophets which usually meang prophesiers or mad singing and playing people who arroused you to pick your pocket, Peter told the churches to give attention to the PROPHETS and the Day Star would arise in their hearts.

The reason for both is that Peter left a written memory and claimed that it was from an eye and ear witness of Jesus Christ Who validated HIS mission by working miracles.  Therefore, singing that which is written is a MARK as the only real way we can identify what Paul identified as the pagan, perferted performers.  A teacher who did not "teach that which is written" was marked as a false teacher. That is why God put that authority in the hands of Pastor-Teachers as the elders and not young professional performers to put on a show.

Jesus had a bound copy of the Greek version: maybe similar to the one the eunuch was reading so that he knew that baptism was prophesied.  The meaning of a Scribe was that they would be at every major event taking notes and making copies to sell before the audience got away.  Everything that Jesus said would be recorded and became short accounts.

Therefore, they would need nothing more to assemble to read whatever text they had, discuss it and be admonished to observe it. With the addition of the Lord's Supper they could conduct "church" until Jesus comes.
The MARK is the Mother of Harlots using "lusted after fruits" as false speakers, singers and instrument players who John called SORCERERS.
