Jeff Walling Let The Walls Fall Down
WHY THEY WANT YOU TO BREAK DOWN YOUR WALLS.
After the fall into instrumental-trinitarian-perverted idolatry at Mount Sinai Moses defined the rise of The Sumerian Kingdom which totally destroyed the freedom of movement for God's People. God made a WALLED GARDEN and placed mankind inside so that those OF THE WORLD for whom Jesus refused to Pray could not get inside. There is no plan to INCLUDE the World but to GO and search for the Little Flock of Lost Spirits and bring them into a SAFE HOUSE where those of the world cannot enter.
Ezekiel blames the Jacob-Cursed and God-abandoned Levites for the destruction of Israel. In the new spiritual temple;
Ezek. 42:20 He measured it by the four sides: it had a wall round about, five hundred reeds long, and five hundred broad, to make a separation between the sanctuary and the profane place.
1Kings 21:23 And of Jezebel also spake the LORD, saying, The dogs shall eat Jezebel by the wall of Jezreel.
THE NEW JERUSALEM WHICH FOR NOW IS THE CHURCH OF CHRIST:
Rev 21:10 And he carried me away in the
spirit to a great
and high mountain,
and showed me that great
city, the holy
Jerusalem, descending out of heaven from God,
Rev 21:11 Having the glory of God: and her light
was like unto a
stone most precious,
even like a jasper stone,
clear as crystal;
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.
Rev 21:12 And had a wall great and high,
and had twelve gates, and
at the gates twelve angels,
and names written thereon,
which are the
names of the twelve tribes of the children of Israel:
Rev. 21:14 And the wall of the city had twelve foundations,
and in them the names of
the twelve apostles of the Lamb.
Of A Church of Christ:
Eph. 2:20 And are built upon [EDUCATED BY] the foundation of the apostles and prophets,
Jesus Christ himself being the chief corner stone;
Rev 21:22 And I saw no temple therein:
for the Lord God
Almighty and the Lamb are the temple of it.
1Cor. 3:16 Know ye not that ye are the temple of God, and that the Spirit of God dwelleth in you?
Jesus said My WORDS are SPIRIT and LIFE.
Rev 21:23 And the city had no need of the sun, neither of the moon, to shine in it: for the glory of God did lighten it, and the Lamb is the light thereof.
Rev 21:24 And the nations of them which are
saved shall walk in
the light of it: and the kings of the earth do bring their
glory
and honour into it.
When the Lost Spirits HEAR the Word they
immediately want to be baptized which is the Christ-ordained and
only way to be saved.
1Pet. 3:21 The like figure whereunto even baptism doth also now save us
(not the putting away of the filth of the flesh,
but the answer of a [Request For a] good conscience toward God,) by the resurrection of Jesus Christ:
1Pet. 3:22 Who is gone into heaven, and is on the right hand of God;
angels and authorities and powers being made subject unto him.
Rev 21:25 And the gates of it shall not be shut at all by day: for there shall be no night there.
Rev 21:26 And they shall bring the glory and
honour of the nations
into it.
Rev. 21:27 And there shall in no wise enter into it any thing
that defileth,
neither whatsoever worketh
abomination, or maketh a lie:
but they which are written
in the Lamb’s book of life.
Rev. 22:14 Blessed are they that do his
commandments,
that they may have right
to the tree of life,
and may enter in through
the gates into the city.
Rev. 22:15 For without are dogs, and sorcerers,
and whoremongers, and murderers, and idolaters, and
whosoever loveth and maketh a lie.
WHO ARE THE SORCERERS AND DOGS
Rev. 18:22 And the voice of harpers,
and musicians, and of pipers, and trumpeters,
shall be heard no more at
all in thee; and no craftsman, Of an orator's
faculty of invention eloquendi
facultas,”
of whatsoever craft he be,
shall be found any more in
thee; and the sound of a millstone shall be heard no more at
all in thee;
Rev. 18:23 And the light of a candle shall shine no more at
all in thee; and the voice of the bridegroom and of the
bride shall be heard no more at all in thee: for thy merchants
were the great men of the earth; for by thy sorceries
were all nations deceived.

Quint. Inst. 1 10.9 Who is ignorant of the fact that music, of which I will speak first, was in ancient times the object not merely of intense study but of veneration: in fact Orpheus and Linus, to mention no others, were regarded as uniting the roles of musician, poet and philosopher. Both were of divine origin, while the former, because by the marvel of his music he soothed the savage breast, is recorded to have drawn after him not merely beasts of the wild, but rocks and trees.The LOGOS is the Regulative Principle: It excludes personal opinions, personal experiences, singing, playing instruments, acting or DANCING.
[10] So too Timagenes asserts that music is the oldest of the arts related to literature, a statement which is confirmed by the testimony of the greatest of poets in whose songs we read that the praise of heroes and of gods were sung to the music of the lyre at the feasts of kings. Does not lopas, the Vergilian bard, sing

and the like? whereby the supreme poet manifests most clearly that music is united with the knowledge even of things divine.
11] If this be admitted, music will be a necessity even for an orator, since those fields of knowledge, which were annexed by philosophy on their abandonment by oratory, once were ours and without the knowledge of all such things there can be no perfect eloquence.
14] It is recorded that the greatest generals played on the lyre and the pipe, and that the armies of Sparta were fired to martial ardour by the strains [Modos] of music. And what else is the function of the horns and trumpets attached to our legions? The louder the concert of their notes, the greater is the glorious supremacy of our arms over all the nations of the earth.

I am a therapôn of Lord Enyalios [Ares],THIS IS THE STORY OF THE Korax 'Raven or the Lisping Voice of the emasculate.Korax protests that Archilochus had been killed as a warrior, not as a poet,[6] but Apollo again declares that Korax has killed the therapôn of the Muses.[7] After further entreaties, Korax is finally granted an oracular directive: he must go "to the House of the Tettîx [Cicada],"[8] where he must propitiate the psûkhê of Archilochus.[9] We may detect a deeper significance in the names and themes of this story by considering the traditions of the Aesopic aînos. In the fables of Aesop, the korax 'raven' is conventionally presented as the bird of Apollo (Fable 323 Perry), endowed with powers of prophecy (Fables 125, 236); he is also a harbinger of death (Fable 162).[10] The tettîges 'cicadas', on the other hand, are creatures of the Muses (Fable 470).[11] As we turn back to the Life of Archilochustradition, we may infer that the figures of Korax and Tettîx are parallel to Apollo and the Muses respectively. More specifically, the parallelism of Apollo and Korax implies that Apollo is maleficent as well as beneficent towards the poet. Mousaôn theraponta katektanes: exithi nêou

The LONG
PRAYER looking for the will of God to USE WOMEN means that it
takes a long time to FORCE weak elders to give in and concede
that they have lost control. This really could matter less:
there is no way that a mega church so far removed from the
Word of God can do anything but continue to EMASCULATE your
children under what was always seen as EFFEMINATE worship in both SPEAKING and MUSIC.
THE EFFEMINATE OR
ANDROGYNOUS WORSHIP LEADER IS A WALL WHICH IS PURPOSE
DRIVEN DISCORD:
WORSHIP ANDROGYNY THE PAGAN SEXUAL IDEAL PETER JONESAmanda Eubanks, has requested that we remove her observations about the blurring of sexual roles during dramatic performances. However, ancient literature from Babylonian tablets and beyond agree with Johannes Quasten. In Music and Worship in Pagan and Christian Antiquity, beginning on page 41 He uses many of the church Fathers and Classical resources we also rely upon:
"Philodemus considered it paradoxical that music should be regarded as veneration of the gods while musicians were paid for performing this so-called veneration. Again, Philodemus held as self deceptive the view that music mediated religious ecstasy. He saw the entire condition induced by the noise of cymbals and tambourines as a disturbance of the spirit.
He found it significant that, on the whole, only women and effeminate men fell into this folly.
Accordingly, nothing of value could be attributed to music; it was no more than a slave of the sensation of pleasure, which satisfied much in the same way that food and drink did.
Similar opinions may be found in the writings of Philo. On one occasion he spoke of the Jewish "Feast of Fasting," used by the Greeks for the Day of Atonement:
"Now, many a man from the false religions, which are not ashamed of criticising what is noble, will ask: how can there be a feast without carousing and overeating, without the pleasant company of hosts and guests, without quantities of unmixed wine, without richly set tables and highly stacked provisions of everything that pertains to a banquet, without pageantry and jokes,
bantering and merry-making to the accompaniment of flutes and citharas, the sound of drums and cymbals and other effeminate and frivolous music of every king,
enkindling unbridled lusts with the help of the sense of hearing. For in and through the same [pleasures] those persons openly seek their joy, for what true joy is their they do not know.
Women's singing was a vital part of all pagan worship. In very early times women became priestly singers of the gods in the temple.
"Women and girls from the different ranks of society were proud to enter the service of the gods as singers and musicians. The understanding of this service was universal: these singers constituted the 'harem of the gods'." (End of Quasten)

What can you do? First, you should understand that the notion of the TITHE is a lie. Like the Jubilee concept it repudiates the Atonement of Jesus Christ and tries to get you to see that church, buildings, rituals and priesthood is a RESTORATION of the Law of Moses which is still in effect. There is no AUTHORITY for paying false teachers to take away your church and deliberately sow discord based on God blinding their eyes.
Secondly, you must grasp that THE LAW OF GIVING is a very big lie. You OWE a mega "church plant" absolutely not even the widow's mite. Remember that Jesus praised the widow for giving her ALL but because the "preachers and elders" took it He let their "buildings and grounds" be destroyed for the third time and they probably ATE their children until they starved to death. They are still EATING UP the Widow's living.
The GOSPEL means that Jesus paid it all and NONE do you owe to a pagan worship center. Click here to see that they lie about the Bible and ALL of church history. If you give them another penny I assure you that God will not bless you.

The thesis of this article is that according to Mike Cope God is performing a divine service by breaking down the walls between all "denominations." The anti-thesis is that God universally warns that when the walls come tumbling down He might be involved by letting the "wild beasts" into the vineyard which has drowned itself in a shrinking supply of new wine to the tune of instrumental music.

Notes From Florida Christian Convention/National Missionary Convention 1985
"A round of applause awaits the convention speaker who will announce that we are saved by Jesus, not doctrine. Brotherhood scholars
impressed by German theology
are throwing up a wall between Jesus and doctrine."This one-eyed theology is catchy; it breathes rhetorical authority. By design it eases the force of doctrine, mitigates the raw authority of Scripture, accredits human testimony, and expands the range of union. But it won't work. Jesus does not descend in euphoric mystery; He comes clothed in the Apostles' Doctrine and swells in our hearts by faith....
"The Sissification of the Church. The universal trend is for Church to surrender to culture, and our culture is a sissified one. That's the word, not feminine. Modern so-called feminism is not feminine; it is little more than broken womanhood crying out for identity and significance.
"As a culture removes itself from God, its masculine virtue fades and a twisted femaleness takes over.
"That's why homosexuality is the end of the line in the mind of God. Good men become bad men, but when men stop being men and women stop being women, the creation image is destroyed and all is lost. Ours is a country that can barely, if at all, bring itself to execute its child murderers; it doesn't have the nerve to defend its legitimate international interests. It divinizes poverty and failure while it denigrates successful competence.
It has no future but limp-wristed oblivion.
The real world is not the place for sissified men, societies, or churches."The modern Church is being sissified. It whispers repentance and shouts forgiveness. Permissiveness reigns falsely in the name of grace. Church discipline? Since when? The modern Church appears to believe that patience is the only virtue. It remembers to sing but forgets to spank. The church that cannot work up the nerve to excommunicate its pro-abortion people, its life-destroying gossips, or its womanizing deacons, is hardly tough enough to threaten Satan's world system. The sissified Church has an astounding toleration for false doctrine.
"The Sissified Church wants to do formally what it has done actually in hundreds of congregations--turn over leadership to the women. This is a dreadful offense to godly women and a threat to their dynamic, legitimate ministries. Weak men want to escape the responsibility that God has given them in the church and in the home; women who are the product of third generation matriarchies have no idea how to be in submission to any man, husband in the home or elder in the church.
Few local congregations attract what natural male leadership is available;
true masculinity cannot stomach the saccharin unreality that oozes from the pulpit and glows in the assembly. Written in 1985 by Roger R. Chambers
Adolf Hitler noted that the leaders of such a society or, in his words community, create a force of effeminate, unquestioning "human material" but in the end they will not have the manly courage to continue the fight. And so it will sink into localized groups of self-seeking people unable to muster the courage or energy to continue the fight beyond the "cell."
This is not a novel. It is a collection of events which show the danger of "breaking down the walls." On the contrary, we cannot find God suggesting that the "little flock" tear down the fences to the masses who are wolves.
Inheriting from his father a war with the Milesians, he pressed the siege against the city by attacking it in the following manner. When the harvest was ripe on the ground he marched his army into Milesia to the sound of pipes and harps, and flutes masculine and feminine.
The buildings that were scattered over the country he neither pulled down nor burnt, nor did he even tear away the doors, but left them standing as they were. He cut down, however, and utterly destroyed all the trees and all the corn throughout the land, and then returned to his own dominions.
And of Cyrus:
Cyrus listened attentively to their proposals, and answered them by a fable.
"There was a certain piper," he said, "who was walking one day by the seaside, when he espied some fish;
so he began to pipe to them, imagining they would come out to him upon the land.
But as he found at last that his hope was vain, he took a net, and enclosing a great draught of fishes, drew them ashore.The fish then began to leap and dance; but the piper said,
'Cease your dancing now, as you did not choose to come and dance when I piped to you.'" [When Jesus refused to come when the Jews piped they had Him murdered]
Cyrus gave this answer to the Ionians and Aeolians,
because, when he urged them by his messengers to revolt from Croesus, they refused; but now, when his work was done, they came to offer their allegiance. It was in anger, therefore, that he made them this reply.
The Ionians, on hearing it, set to work to fortify their towns, and held meetings at the Panionium
The following is the way in which the loss of Smyrna happened. Certain men of Colophon had been engaged in a sedition there, and being the weaker party, were driven by the others into banishment.
The Smyrnaeans received the fugitives, who, after a time, watching their opportunity,
while the inhabitants were celebrating a feast to Bacchus (new wine) outside the walls, shut to the gates, and so got possession of the town.
The Aeolians of the other States came to their aid, and terms were agreed on between the parties, the Ionians consenting to give up all the moveables, and the Aeolians making a surrender of the place.
The expelled Smyrnaeans were distributed among the other States of the Aeolians, and were everywhere admitted to citizenship.
Look at that again:
The fugitives from Colophon sought "fellowship" witht the Smyrnaeans.
The Smyrnaeans worshiped Bacchus OUTSIDE THE WALLSWith Bacchus or Dionysus worship
While they were busy the fugitives LOCKED THEM OUT.
The Smyrnaeans were scattered among other groups.
We know of new wineskiners who pulled this trick in Seattle.
Heredotus also notes that: The Babylonians, encamped without their walls, awaited his coming. A battle was fought at a short distance from the city, in which the Babylonians were defeated by the Persian king,
whereupon they withdrew within their defences.
Here they shut themselves up, and made light of his siege, having laid in a store of provisions for many years in preparation against this attack;for when they saw Cyrus conquering nation after nation, they were convinced that he would never stop, and that their turn would come at last.
Cyrus was now reduced to great perplexity, as time went on and he made no progress against the place. In this distress either some one made the suggestion to him, or he bethought himself of a plan, which he proceeded to put in execution.
He placed a portion of his army at the point where the river enters the city,
and another body at the back of the place where it issues forth,with orders to march into the town by the bed of the stream, as soon as the water became shallow enough:
[Cuttting of the "water" supply is symbolic of cutting off the Words of Christ. See the Odes of Solomon
And the Odes of Solomon falsely used to defend instrumental music.
And how this is replaced by a New Wineskin and comments by Jesus]he then himself drew off with the unwarlike portion of his host, and made for the place where Nitocris dug the basin for the river, where he did exactly what she had done formerly:
he turned the Euphrates [the water of the word] by a canal into the basin, which was then a marsh, on which the river sank to such an extent that the natural bed of the stream became fordable.
Hereupon the Persians who had been left for the purpose at Babylon by the, river-side, entered the stream, which had now sunk so as to reach about midway up a man's thigh, and thus got into the town.
Had the Babylonians been apprised of what Cyrus was about, or had they noticed their danger, they would never have allowed the Persians to enter the city,
but would have destroyed them utterly; for they would have made fast all the street-gates which gave upon the river,and mounting upon the walls along both sides of the stream,
would so have caught the enemy, as it were, in a trap.But, as it was, the Persians came upon them by surprise and so took the city. Owing to the vast size of the place, the inhabitants of the central parts (as the residents at Babylon declare) long after the outer portions of the town were taken,
knew nothing of what had chanced,
but as they were engaged in a festival, continued dancing and revelling until they learnt the capture but too certainly. Such, then, were the circumstances of the first taking of Babylon.Parciy (h6542) par-see'; patrial from 6536; a Parsite I. e. Persian), or inhab. of Peres: - Persian.

and some of the people eagerly went to the king. He authorized them to observe the ordinances of the Gentiles. 1 Macc 1: 13 -So they built a gymnasium in Jerusalem, according to Gentile custom, 1 Macc 1: 14 -
and removed the marks of circumcision, and abandoned the holy covenant. They joined with the Gentiles and sold themselves to do evil. 1 Macc 1: 15 -

And they
remembered the blood of John their brother, and went up and
hid under cover of the mountain. 1 Macc 9: 38 -
They raised their eyes and looked,
and saw a tumultuous procession with much baggage; and the bridegroom came out with his friends and his brothers
........... to meet them with tambourines and musicians and many weapons. 1 Macc 9: 39 -Then they rushed upon them from the ambush and began killing them. Many were wounded and fell, and the rest fled to the mountain; and they took all their goods. 1 Macc 9: 40 -
Thus the wedding was turned into mourning and the voice of their musicians into a funeral dirge. 1 Macc 9: 41 -
Cope begins:
"Something there is that doesn,t love a wall, wrote Robert Frost. It seemed to him that something in nature voted "NO to the erection of dividing walls.He could observe the way, every year, the ground would swell so the carefully stacked rocks tumbled over:
Something there is that doesn't love a wall
That sends the frozen-ground-swell under it,
And spills the upper boulders in the sun,
And makes gaps even two can pass abreast..
The problem was that his neighbor, following an old proverb of his father, believed that "good fences make good neighbors. They make sure boundaries are clearly defined. No amount of reasoning and experience could convince him otherwise.
The view that NOT using instrumental music and NOT participating with those who use DOGMA and not DOCTRINE is that our TRADITIONALISM is a vile disease we caught from out parents. The fact is that from Genesis to Revelation, all of the church fathers and founders of denominations the use of MACHINES for doing hard work was rejected because it amounted to going effeminate just when Jesus comes to be our only teacher.
It was his wall, his choice, wasn't it?
Now, for the true context:
- Something there is that doesn't love a wall,
- That sends the frozen-ground-swell under it
- And spills the upper boulder in the sun,
- And make gaps even two can pass abreast.
- The work of hunters is another thing:
- I have come after them and made repair
- Where they have left not one stone on a stone,
- But they would have the rabbit out of hiding,

In the rush for "topics" the order of truth often gets turned on its head perhaps without knowing that without fidelity to anyone's word there simply is no "point." Robert Frost is usually beyond the immediate reach of those demanded to "test the spirits" but not beyond the reach of God Who listens carefully as much to what we say as what we do.
Robert Frost didn't leave the hunters out:
"But they would have the rabbit out of hiding, To please the yelping dogs."
And his motive against the wall-defending neighbor was pure mischief! Is there a message here? If we use Biblical and historical figurative speech we can hear the message loud and clear:Why have walls, Frosts teases us, when men break down the walls just to expose the rabbit (the unclean) just for the joy of the yelping dogs (the perverse).
Looking for proof-texts from Robert Frost rather than Lord Jesus gives us the authority -- the demand -- to allegorize Frost to show how closely his "parable" describes the post-modern (post-Bible, post-Paul) motives for breaking down the walls: just to please the unclean, the yelping dogs, and too often just for mischief. While this undoubtedly was not the intent, figurative speech can get you into a heap of trouble.
Accepting the challenge of Frost as authority to "break down the walls" we certainly do not intend to indict anyone, but satisfying and breaking down the walls and "yelping dogs" to get at the rabbits is too rich to pass up for any one who knows "Bible and Broken Walls 101aaa":
The yelping dogs and concision Paul warned about were the Cynics whose howling form of praise singing attracted customers: they sought to get INSIDE the worship process seeking whom they might devour (double meaning). The concision were the emasculated priests of Cybele or the mother goddess.
Organum used with:
cymbălum I. Prop., an instrument consisting of two hollow plates of brass, which emit a ringing sound when struck together. They were used in the festivals of Cybele and Bacchus, and on other festive occasions; also to hinder the flight of bees
Catullus, Carmina 63
Thy timbrel, Mother Cybele, the firstings of thy rite,
And as her tender finger-tips on bull-back hollow rang
She rose a-grieving and her song to listening comrades sang.
"Up Gallae, hie together, haste for Cybele's deep grove,
Hie to the Dindymnean dame, ye flocks that love to rove;
Musical performers in the worship of the Mother of Harlots (Rev 17-18) were emasculated (in Paul's words) and even had their sex changed.

Singular GALLUS, priests, often temple attendants or wandering mendicants, of the ancient Asiatic deity, the Great Mother of the Gods, known as Cybele, or Agdistis, in Greek and Latin literature. The galli were eunuchs attired in female garb, with long hair fragrant with ointment.
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. 18:14 And the fruits that thy soul lusted after are departed from thee, and all things which were dainty and goodly are departed from thee, and thou shalt find them no more at all.
Together with priestesses, they celebrated the Great Mother's rites with wild music and dancing until their frenzied excitement found its culmination in self-scourging, self-laceration, or exhaustion. Self-emasculation by candidates for the priesthood sometimes accompanied this delirium of worship.
Rev. 18:22 And the voice [noise, phaino to shine] of harpers, and musicians, and of pipers, and trumpeters, shall be heard no more at all in thee; and no craftsman, of whatsoever craft he be, shall be found any more in thee; and the sound of a millstone shall be heard no more at all in thee;
Rev. 18:23 And the light of a candle shall shine no more at all in thee; and the voice of the bridegroom and of the bride shall be heard no more at all in thee: for thy merchants were the great men of the earth; for by thy sorceries were all nations deceived.The name galli may be Phrygian, from the two streams called Gallus, both tributaries of the Sangarius (now Sakarya) River, the waters of which were said to inspire religious frenzy.
Does not the very nature of things teach you that if a man has long hair, it is a disgrace to him, 1 Co.11:14
but that if a woman has long hair, it is her glory? For long hair is given to her as a covering. 1 Cor 11:15
The Hunter:
Of Nimrod:
He was a mighty hunter before the LORD; that is why it is said, "Like Nimrod, a mighty hunter before (against) the LORD." Genesis 10:9
Nimrod believed that he could regenerate through external means. And, he had a band of female musicians making his path straight. Nimrod was the traditional builder of the tower of Babel. He collected all of the people's animals and put them into his own walls where he could sell them.

- The boys grew up, and Esau became a skillful hunter, a man of the open country,
- while Jacob was a quiet man, staying among the tents. Ge.25:27
Free yourself, like a gazelle from the hand of the hunter, like a bird from the snare of the fowler. Pr.6:5
Hunters in Hebrew:
Cayid (h6718) tsah'-yid; from a form of 6679 and mean. the same; the chase; also game (thus taken); (gen.) lunch (espec. for a journey): - catcheth, food, * hunter, (that which he took in) hunting, venison, victuals.
Cuwd (h6679) tsood; a prim. root; to lie alongside (i. e. in wait); by impl. to catch an animal (figurative: men); (denom. from. 6718) to victual (for a journey): - chase, hunt, sore, take (provision).
And whatsoever man there be of the children of Israel, or of the strangers that sojourn among you, which hunteth and catcheth any beast or fowl that may be eaten; he shall even pour out the blood thereof, and cover it with dust. Lev 17:13
For by means of a whorish woman a man is brought to a piece of bread: and the adultress will hunt for the precious life. Proverb 6:26
Behold, I will send for many fishers, saith the Lord, and they shall fish them; and after will I send for many hunters, and they shall hunt them from every mountain, and from every hill, and out of the holes of the rocks. Jeremiah 16:16
For mine eyes are upon all their ways: they are not hid from my face, neither is their iniquity hid from mine eyes. Jeremiah 16:17
I will repay them double for their wickedness and their sin, because they have defiled my land with the lifeless forms of their vile images and have filled my inheritance with their detestable idols." Jeremiah 16:18
Wherefore thus saith the Lord God; Behold, I am against your pillows, wherewith ye there hunt the souls to make them fly, and I will tear them from your arms,
and will let the souls go, even the souls that ye hunt to make them fly. Eze.13:20

A lifeless form or a carcass in the form of a vile image image has a clear musical connection much like the "empty wineskin" of the witch of Endor:
Nebelah (h5038) neb-ay-law'; from 5034; a flabby thing, i. e. a carcase or carrion (human or bestial, often collect.); fig. an idol: - (dead) body, (dead) carcase, dead of itself, which died, (beast) that (which) dieth of itself.
Nebel (h5035) neh'-bel; from 5034; a skin- bag for liquids (from collapsing when empty); hence a vase (as similar in shape when full); also a lyre (as having a body of like form): - bottle, pitcher, psaltery, vessel, viol

Even in the case of lifeless things (inanimate, without breath, mechanical) that make sounds, such as the flute or harp, how will anyone know what tune is being played unless there is a distinction in the notes? 1 Corinthians 14:7NIV
The rabbit or hare was a ceremonially unclean animal (Deut 14:7; Lev 11:6)
Even today we hear news of pretty bunnies spreading a deadly disease so that gardners have to wear a face mask just to mow the lawn! Of course, the rabbit is famous for its sexual power.
"Rabbits are of considerable economic importance. They form the bulk of the diet of many animal predators, and they are the most widely hunted small game (by humans) wherever they occur.
They can also carry and transmit to humans such diseases as tularemia (acute infectious disease resembling plague), or rabbit fever, however, and in some areas they become serious pests, destroying crops or grazing lands (Britannica)
"Whether they were the Burmese boy-priests of the temples, as also found in Ceylon, Malaysia, Japan, and among the mainland Chinese Buddhist monks, they were the educators and keepers of the sacred flame of "neitherness." The Fujian Province of old China worshipped a patron rabbit god of homosexuality similar to the North American trickster, HARE, and they maintained organized cult activities in the service of same-sex religion. Japanese mythology suggests that the great cultural hero Kobo Daishi, founder of the Singon sect of Buddhism, was himself a queer."
Jude quotes Enoch to warn that God will come with ten thousand of His saints to execute judgment. The primary sin was ignoring His Word. The result was that Satan was able to "break down the walls" by mixed-sex choirs and instrumental music. When the holy Sethites had been called down from their safety there was a general homosexual attack: Satan is ambidextrous.
In the Book of Enoch chapter 96 Enoch writes about coneys or rabbits who always have to run from the "sirens"--
- 1 Be hopeful, ye righteous; for suddenly shall the sinners perish before you,
- And ye shall have lordship over them according to your desires.
- 2 And in the day of the tribulation of the sinners,
- Your children shall mount and rise as eagles,
- And higher than the vultures will be your nest,
- And ye shall ascend and enter the crevices of the earth,
- And the clefts of the rock for ever as coneys (rabbits) before the unrighteous,
- And the sirens shall sigh because of you-and weep
3 Wherefore fear not, ye that have suffered;
- For healing shall be your portion,
- And a bright light shall enlighten you,
- And the voice of rest ye shall hear from heaven.
4 Woe unto you, ye sinners, for your riches make you appear like the righteous,
- But your hearts convict you of being sinners,
- And this fact shall be a testimony against you for a memorial of (your) evil deeds.
5 Woe to you who devour the finest of the wheat,
- And drink wine in large bowls,
- And tread under foot the lowly with your might.
6 Woe to you who drink water from every fountain,
- For suddenly shall ye be consumed and wither away,
- Because ye have forsaken the fountain of life.
Adam Clark Amos Chapter 5, Verse 5. And invent to themselves instruments of music, like David] See the note on 1 Chron. xxiii. 5; and see especially the note on 2 Chron. xxix. 25.I believe that David was not authorized by the Lord to introduce that multitude of musical instruments into the Divine worship of which we read,
- and I am satisfied that his conduct in this respect is most solemnly reprehended by this prophet;
- and I farther believe that the use of such instruments of music, in the Christian Church,
- is without the sanction and against the will of God;
- that they are subversive of the spirit of true devotion, and that they are sinful.
If there was a woe to them who invented instruments of music, as did David under the law, is there no wo, no curse to them who invent them, and introduce them into the worship of God in the Christian Church?
- To execute judgement upon all,
- And to destroy all the ungodly:
- And to convict all flesh
- Of all the works of their ungodliness which they have ungodly committed,
- And of all the hard things which ungodly sinners have spoken against Him.
In Chapter seven we understand that what was taught was taught by those the Bible calls "Jabal, Jubal, Tubal-Cain and Naamah."
God will come with ten thousand of His saints and the specific charges are:
Ignoring the Word of God because Satan taught them
.....About the power of musical instruments, mixed-sex choirs and wine.A primary sin was caused by:
..... Abortionists. [This was to terminate religious pregnancies]
The Second Book of Adam and Eve is more explicit. You need to read this by Clicking Here.
"It was the Cainite's punishment to have a hundred daughters borne them for each son; and this led to such husband-hunger that their women began to raid houses and carry off men. One day it pleased them to seduce them Sethites, after daubing their faces with rouge and powder, their eyes with antimony, and the soles of their feet with scarlet, dyeing their hair, putting on golden earrings, golden anklets, bracelets, and many-colored garments.
In their ascent of the holy mountain, they twanged harps, blew trumpets, beat drums, sang, danced, clapped hands; then, having addressed the five hundred and twenty anchorites in cheerful voices,
........... each caught hold of her victim and seduced him.These Sethites, after once succumbing to the Cainite women's blandishments,
..... became more unclean than dogs, and utterly forgot God's laws.Even the "Sons of Judges" now corrupted the daughters of the poor. Whenever a bride was beautified for the bridegroom, one such would enter the nuptial chamber and enjoy her first.
Although Genun's name suggests "Kenan," who appears in Genesis 5:9 as the son of Enoch, he is a composite Kenite character: the invention of musical instruments being attributed in Genesis to Jubal, and of edged iron blades to his brother Tubal Cain.
Genun (Jubal = yobel or trumpet = Jubilee) was said to occupy "the Land of the Slime Pits," namely the southern shores of the Dead Sea (Genesis 14:10), because the evil city of Sodom stood there
Genun the Canaanite, son of Lamech the Blind, living in the Land of the Slime Pits,
was ruled by Azael from his earliest youth,
and invented all sorts of musical instruments.When he played these, Azael entered into them too, so that they gave forth seductive tunes entrancing the hearts of all listeners.
Genun would assemble companies of musicians, who inflamed one another with music until their lust burned bright like fire, and they lay together promiscuously.
He also brewed beer, gathered great crowds in taverns, gave them to drink, and taught them to forge iron swords and spear-points, with which to do murder at random when they were drunk.
For their vine is of the vine of Sodom, and of the fields of Gomorrah: their grapes are grapes of gall (poppy), their clusters are bitter: Deut 32:32
[Music-produced endorphins are morphine-like. Music is one of the most powerful and addictive efforts of mankind]
Michael, Gabriel, Raphael, and Uriel told God that such wickedness had never before flourished on earth.
God then sent Raphael to bind Azael hand and foot, heaping jagged rocks over him in the dark Cave of Dudael, where he now abides until the Last Days. (Site of the later cult of Pan, the homosexual pipe player. )
Gabriel destroyed the Fallen Ones by inciting them to civil war. Michael chained Shemhazai and his fellows in other dark caves for seventy generations.
Uriel became the messenger of salvation who visited Noah.
