You said you believe “SINGING COMPRISES OF PLAYING OF INSTRUMENT WHICH ARE TRUMPET, PIANO, ORGAN AND DRUMS”. Can you tell me the verse in which you stand on? I think I stand on the word of God by sing and making the melody in my heart. |
|
| Ephesians
5:19 Speaking to yourselves
in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing and making melody in your
heart to the Lord;
|
|
| The
question I ask you now is, Why would man think he needs to add anything to
this verse. The early church meet in houses in upper rooms, places that
would not always have instruments available, yet our Lord said for us to
be like minded in all we do.
|

| 1Co
1:10 ¶ Now I beseech you,
brethren, by the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that ye all speak the same
thing, and that there be no divisions among you; but that ye be perfectly
joined together in the same mind and in the same judgment.

| In
fact history tells us that musical instrument were not use in service
until 600 A.D.

(American
Encyclopedia, Volume 12, p. 688). Christians did not use instrumental music from the time of the apostles until 670 AD when organs were first introduced sparingly and with great opposition. The Orthodox and Roman Catholic churches split in 1033 AD in part over instrumental music. The Orthodox church, even today, has never used instruments. No Protestant church used instruments before the 1700’s. “Pope Vitalian is related to have first introduced organs into some of the churches of Western Europe about 670 but the earliest trustworthy account is that of one sent as a present by the Greek emperor Constantine Copronymus to Pepin, king of Franks in 755 AD.”

| This
is truly an addition to God’s plan and to his written Word.
Please question everything you are taught. Ask for the book, chapter, and verse so you will know it is from God and not from Man.

17:11 These were more noble
than those in Thessalonica, in that they received the word with all
readiness of mind, and searched the scriptures daily, whether those things
were so.

Thank
you so much for your comment, I look forward in hearing your response in
these things I’ve taught you. Remember, search the scriptures to see if
my words are so.
