Stone Campbell Hermeneutics John Mark Hick

Thomas Olbricht.  Aristotelian rhetorical analysis. Aristotle repudiates all that the New Hermeneutic constructs.

John Mark Hicks: THEOLOGY, not MERE FACTS, SHAPES how we OURSELVES enter into the STORY OF GOD and live it out in our lives.

The documents collected in the Bible record the story of many nations and religions.

Amos 9:7 Are ye not as children of the Ethiopians unto me, O children of Israel? saith the LORD.
        Have not I brought up Israel out of the land of Egypt?
        and the Philistines from Caphtor,
        and the Syrians from Kir?

All of the "gods" are named where forms of Elohim and Jehovah are generic. To Moses He is "I AM the Lord (yhwh) god (elohim) of Abraham, Issac and Jacob.  These probably CANNOT be Facts to Theologians who claim to teach the  TRUE FACT. However, the fuzzy record in Scripture and other documents become FACTS when researchers dig up confirmation.  Theologians who get ruptured over Genesis.  The simple definition of words proves that Moses wrote about the destruction of the free hunters and gatherers by City State. Moses wrote after the Exiles reverted to Instrumental-Trinitarian-Perverted "play" and as Amos and Stephen should inform anyone that God sentenced the Israelites to exile and death.  Job and Jeremiah repeat the "creation" events and calls them parables.

Matt. 13:33 Another parable spake he unto them;
        The kingdom of heaven is LIKE unto leaven, which a woman took,
        and hid in three measures of meal, till the whole was leavened.
Matt. 13:34 All these things spake Jesus unto the MULTITUDES in parables;
        and without a parable spake he not unto them:
Matt. 13:35 That it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the prophet,
        saying, I will open my mouth in parables;
        I will utter things which have been kept secret from the foundation of the world

It is a FACT that no one, including David, ever WORSHIPPED by singing or playing instruments.
It is ANTI-fact when anyone insists and sows massive discord by suggesting that they hear A spirit commanding them to hire performance preachers, employ or even permit terrible Worship Teams to preside OVER the students of Jesus.

WORSHIP demands and MARKS those who Bow Down or Fall on their Face and pronounces ANATHEMA on any thing (guitar, banjo, drums) or person who dedicates their body or rhetorical or musical talent to enhance an overt worship service.

Anathema.and.Max.Lucado.html

Anathema and Instrumental Musical Worship

Anathema is anything so sacrificed or devoted to the Lord and could not be redeemed (Num. 18:14; Lev. 27:28, 29); and hence the idea of exterminating was connected with the word. The Hebrew verb (haram) is frequently used of the extermination of idolatrous nations.

-Anathêma , /, (anatithēmi) A. that which is set up: hence, like agalma, votive offering set up in a temple, Hdt.1.14,92, S.Ant.286, “a. ek leitourgiōn” Lys.26.4.  agalma, delight, ornament, “molpē t' orkhēstus anathēmata daitos” Od.1.152, cf. 21.430, tois tekousin anathēma biotou, of children,

Leitourg-ia  III. public service of the gods, “hai pros tous theous l.” Arist.Pol.1330a13; “hai tōn theōn therapeiai kai l.” D.S.1.21, cf. UPZ17.17 (ii B.C.), PTeb.302.30 (i A.D.), etc.; the service or ministry of priests, LXX Nu.8.25, Ev.Luc.1.23.

Lys. 26 4  But I find no difficulty in countering those statements. As regards the public services, I say that his father would have done better not to perform them than to spend so much of his substance: for it was on account of this that he won the confidence of the people and overthrew the democracy; and so our memory of these deeds must be more abiding than of the offerings he has set up¹ in record of those services.

Mark.10.They.Shall.Mock.Him.With.Music

Jesus said that He Spoke the FACTS God put into His MOUTH. THAT is the meaning of Spirit or Breath. It is a FACT that Jesus taught that.  Theologians who do not believe that Jesus was telling the TRUTH, have no right to change what Jesus said.  They should be honorable and not get HIRED to change the document.

Jesus said "My Father and I are One."  That is FACT because "one" and the context said "I teach what the father teaches." We teach the same thing.

Theology of Hicks articulated by Leonard Allen use "imagination" with no historical evidence and contradicting Scripture that "God was CHRIST IN THE FLESH.

Theology: the Jewish Theologians said that Jesus was a MAN "makest thyself God."
FACT: Jesus said "you blaspheme because I said, "I AM the Son of God."

FACT is that Jesus said that truth had been hidden in parables from the foundation of the world.  That was to HIDE from the THEOLOGIANS

Theologians or the Wise or Sophists (speakers, singers, instrument players) think that it is GOD Who is confused and they must be talented and trained to "UNPACK" the Package they are not supposed to understand.

FACT, Paul said that the Church (school) is built upon or EDUCATED by the Prophets and Apostles.
THEOLOGY is Purpose Driven unaware that the Church is defined inclusively and exclusively in the Prophets.

The World has been very blessed by those who are TAUGHT the positive messages of Scripture and are able to understand the ANTITHESIS by which the New Testament rejects the Violent.

Theology has been responsible for most of the Violence in the World.

John 12:48 He that rejecteth ME,
        and receiveth not my WORDS,   [Excludes Rhetoric, Singing, playing instruments]
        hath one that judgeth him:
        the WORD that I have SPOKEN,
        the same shall judge him in the last day.

Those who do not BELIEVE that should be bound by minimal Civilized Ethics not to Sow Discord by promoting Self-Exhibition pseudo-religion to become rich and famous.

The WORD or LOGOS is God Almighty Governing or Regulating by His W.O.R.D.S.  Because He is God and Hicks is not, He does not need ANTI-Word Theologians Purpose Driven to Violate that Word and Sow discord.

John Mark Hicks and all theologians DENY that God can have Jesus SPEAK His WORD which humanoids can understand.  Hicks is correct in one respect.

BAPTISM SAVES because that is how we REQUEST A Good Conscience or A holy spirit so we can enroll in the School of Jesus Christ.  2 Corinthians 3.  Theologians who go beyond SPEAKING what Scripture has SPOKEN about Baptism will not be able to READ the Scriptures or HEAR the Scriptures when they are PREACHED by being READ.  You have to be slapped with STRONG DELUSIONS to deny that God created mankind able to understand without a clergy.

Aristotle's Rhetorica (1404a),
But since the whole business of Rhetoric is to influence opinion,
        we must pay attention to it, not as being right, but necessary;
for, as a matter of right, one should aim at nothing more in a speech
        than how to avoid exciting pain or pleasure.

Outlawed by Jesus as the Laded Burden: rhetoric, music. Creating Mental Anxiety by religious rituals outlawed in the School of Christ

Outlawed by Paul as self-Pleasure which creates "mental excitement"
MARTIN LUTHER: Romans 15:4-13 REJECTS ORGANS
http://www.piney.com/Norman.Romans.14.html

For justice should consist in fighting the case with the FACTS ALONE,
        so that everything else that is beside demonstration is superfluous;
        nevertheless, as we have just said, it is of great importance
        owing to the corruption of the hearer

John Mark Hicks and all theologians deny what Jesus claimed

John 7:16 Jesus answered them, and said,
        My doctrine is not mine, but his that sent me.
John 7:17 If any man will do his will,
        he shall know of the doctrine,
        whether it be of God, or whether I speak of myself.
John 7:18 He that speaketh of himself seeketh his own glory:
        but he that seeketh his glory that sent him,
        the same is true, and no unrighteousness is in him.

g1319.   didaskalia, did-as-kal-ee´-ah; from 1320; instruction (the function or the information): — doctrine, learning, teaching.

A Christian is a Disciple of Christ is a STUDENT of What Jesus Who was MADE LORD and CHRIST at Age 30 called SCRIPTURE.  Holy Scripture consists of the Prophets and other Prophecies Concerning Me. The Apostles were eye--and ear witnesses of RECORDERS of Jesus making these prophecies more certain.  A Christian as an "enlightened" disciple blasphemes God's Spirit if they Private Interpret or Further Expound.  Therefore, a Theologian CONFESSES that he is not a Disciple of the Record.

SPIRIT is defined as the WORDS which God put into the mouths of the Prophets.  John Mark Hicks says these are not FACTS and Keith Stanglin debunks Jesus and Paul for affirming Moses or any prophet.

Jesus was sent to make these PROPHECIES "CONCERNING ME" more certain.  Men like Peter as Eye--  and Ear--witness left us a MEMORY and dares anyone to private interpret or further expound.  The Prophets defined the Ekklesia or Church of Messiah both inclusively and exclusively. Men like Isaiah and Jeremiah REPUDIATES theologians who "make the lambs dumb before the slaughter" (Sorcery) with mechanical instruments as the weapons of Sorcery or Witchcraft.

1John 5:10
He that believeth on the SON OF GOD
        hath the witness IN himself:
he that believeth not God
        hath made MADE HIM A LIAR
        BECAUSE he believeth not the RECORD that God gave of his Son.
1John 5:11 And THIS is THE record,
        that God hath given to us eternal life,
        and this life is in his Son.

By definition, anyone becoming a HIRELING as a Theologian DENIES the record (fact) that God left.

3John 12 Demetrius hath good report of all men,
        and of the TRUTH itself: yea, and we also bear record;
        and ye know that our RECORD is true.
Rev. 1:2 Who bare record of the WORD of God,
        and of the TESTIMONY of Jesus Christ,
        and of all things that he saw.
Rev. 19:10 And I fell at his feet to worship him.
         And he said unto me, See thou do it not:
        I am thy fellowservant,
        and of thy brethren that have the TESTIMONY of Jesus:
        worship God: for the TESTIMONY of Jesus is the SPIRIT of prophecy.

SPIRIT if figurative or a PARABLE to HIDE from the Wise, Sophists, Speakers, Singers, Instrument Players

John 6:63 It is the SPIRIT that quickeneth;
        the flesh profiteth nothing:
         the words that I speak unto you,
        they are spirit, and they are life.
John 6:64 But there are some of you that believe not.
        For Jesus knew from the beginning
        who they were that believed not,
        and who should betray him.
John 6:65 And he said, Therefore SAID I unto you,
        that no man can come unto me,
        except it were GIVEN unto him of my Father.

This is a FACT. Jesus was sent for a tiny band of Lost Spirits: they are NOT of the World, the Ecumenical or the kingdom of the Devil.
        Lipscomb University teaches that GOD CAME IN THE FLESH.
        Fact teaches that the MAN Jesus of Nazareth CAME IN THE FLESH 30 years
            before God Sanctified (at Baptism) and Sent Him as both LORD and CHRIST. 
        John says that THEOLOGIANS are ANTICHRIST.

Theologians (by the real meaning of the word) confess to be the teachers of Apollo or Apollyon.
        The "father-mother" of Musical Worship team IS IN FACT the unleashed Apollon.
        His LOCUSTS are the MUSES and music is defined from mystery meaning "to make the lambs dumb before the slaughter" so they as dirty ADULTERESSES (in the literature) can emasculate male leadership and give everyone the Sting of Death.  The BEAST is the Greek Therion "A new style of music ans Satyric (Cappella and perverted) drama

John 6:36 But I said unto you,
        That ye also have seen me, and believe not.
John 6:37 All that the Father giveth me shall come to me;
        and him that cometh to me I will in no wise cast out.
John 6:38 For I came down from heaven,
        not to do mine own will,
        but the will of him that sent me.
John 6:39 And this is the Father’s will which hath sent me,
        that of all which he hath given me I should lose nothing,
        but should raise it up again at the last day.
John 6:40 And this is the will of him that sent me,
        that every one which seeth the Son, and believeth on him,
        may have everlasting life: and I will raise him up at the last day.

Fact to MARK those who believe that they CO-inspire

Acts 2:41 Then they that gladly received his WORD were BAPTIZED:
        and the same day there were added unto them about three thousand souls.

John 6:44 No man can come to me,
        except the Father which hath SENT me DRAW him: 
        [Drag or enfold g138 "heresy" or Call]
        and I will raise him up at the last day.

John 6:45 It is written in the prophets,
        And they shall be all taught of God.
        Every man therefore that hath heard, and hath learned of the Father, cometh unto me.

Isaiah 54:13

“All your sons will be taught of the Lord;
And the well-being of your sons will be great.

Jeremiah 31:33-34

“But this is the covenant which I will make with the house of Israel after those days,” declares the Lord, “I will put My law within them and on their heart I will write it; and I will be their God, and they shall be My people.

Matt. 22:14 For MANY are called, but few are CHOSEN.

John 6:46 Not that any man hath seen the Father,
        save he which is of God, he hath seen the Father

In the Theology of Joe Biden "Truth is more important than FACTS."  God is WORD in the same class that He is LIGHT or LIFE.  SPIRIT is never a person but is always defined as "God put His WORD into the MOUTH of a MOSES (The Book of The Covenant), Elijah (the Prophets) and LASTLY the Mouth of the MAN Jesus of Nazareth.  Jesus never spoke on His OWN to mark Him as the opposite of the sons of the Devil.  He put this WORD into the MOUTH of the Apostles and they left their "memory" in "parts" as eye-- and ear-- witnesses.

Translated Means: "If you pay us enough while we extort WE will tell you something ABOVE the Facts called Holy Scripture.

Acts 15:21 For Moses of old time

Leonard Allen: The very truth about Christ--that he is GOD IN THE FLESH, Son Saviour, and Messiah--becomes INTELLIGIBLE through the deep work of the Spirit. 

When GOD'S SPIRIT acts affected persons SPEAK.

2Sam. 23:2 The SPIRIT OF the Lord spake by me,
        and his WORD was in my tongue.
Job 26:4 To whom hast thou uttered WORDS?
        and whose spirit came from thee?
Prov. 1:23 Turn you at my reproof: behold,
        I will pour out my MOUTH unto you,
        I will make known my WORDS unto you.
Is. 59:21 As for me, this is my covenant with them, saith the Lord;  [YHWH]
        My MOUTH that is upon thee,
        and my WORDS which I have put in thy MOUTH,
        Shall not depart out of thy MOUTH,
        nor out of the MOUTH of thy seed,
        nor out of the MOUTH of thy seed’s seed,
        saith the Lord, from henceforth and for ever.

The Promise of HOLY SPIRIT to Jesus was that as prophet, priest, king and only Teacher was an Evangelistic Role: As promised He returned to the upper room and PORED out what they say and heard.  This empowered them to SPEAK the WORD as the only way to
SHAPE our Lives

Plat. Soph. 223a to call the art of flattery or of making things pleasant.

Theaetetus Certainly.

Stranger  But the class which proposes to carry on its conversations for the sake of virtue and demands its pay in cash—does not this deserve to be called by another name?

Theaetetus   Of course.

Stranger    And what is that name? Try to tell.

Theaetetus    It is obvious; for I think we have discovered the sophist. And therefore by uttering that word I think I should give him the right name. [223b]

Stranger  Then, as it seems, according to our present reasoning, Theaetetus
        ghe part of appropriative, coercive, hunting art which hunts animals, land animals, tame animals, man,
        privately, for pay, is paid in cash,
        claims to give education, and is a hunt after rich and promising youths,
       must—so our present argument concludes—be called sophistry.

Plat. Soph. 224a

Stranger   Take, therefore, the liberal arts ¹ in general that constantly go about from city to city, bought in one place and carried to another and sold—painting, and conjuring, and the many other things that affect the soul, which are imported and sold partly for its entertainment and partly for its serious needs; we cannot deny that he who carries these about and sells them constitutes a merchant properly so called, no less than he whose business is the sale of food and drink.

Stranger   One part of this soul-merchandising might very properly be called the art of display, might it not? But since the other part, though no less ridiculous than the first, is nevertheless a traffic in knowledge, must we not call it by some name akin to its business?

1 The word mousikē, here rendered “liberal arts,” is much more inclusive than the English word “music,” designating, as it does, nearly all education and culture except the purely physical. In the Athens of Socrates' day
        many, possibly most, of the teachers of music in this larger sense
        were foreigners, Greeks, of course, but not Athenians.

ALL OF THE BOASTING ABOUT BEING GOD'S REQUIRED INTERPRETER MAKES THEM INTO A LAUGHING STOCK EXCEPT AMONG THEOLOGIANS

Matt. 11:25 At that time Jesus answered and said,
        I thank thee, O Father, Lord of heaven and earth,

Christ is not the name of a god: Christ is the Anointing upon the MAN Jesus to Sanctify and Send Him. He was baptized 30 years after:

1John 4:3 And every spirit that confesseth not that
        Jesus CHRIST is come in the flesh is NOT of God:
        and this is that spirit of ANTICHRIST,
        whereof ye have heard that it should come;
        and even now already is it in the world.

1Tim. 2:5 For there is ONE GOD
        and one mediator between God and men,
        the MAN Christ Jesus;

Rom. 14:9 For to this end CHRIST
        both died, and rose, and revived,
        THAT he MIGHT BE LORD of the dead and living.

THEOLOGY IS ANTI-LOGOS AND THEREFORE ANTI-CHRIST WHO MADE THE LOGOS AUDIBLE AND VISIBLE.

NOW WHEN IT DOESN'T MATTER THEY HAVE TAKEN CAPTIVE ALL OF THOSE INSTITUTIONS CLAIMING TO SELL THE GIFT OF GOD.

THEOLOGY IS ALWAYS THE MARK OF THE "GODS" USED IN SCRIPTURE TO IDENTIFY THE DEVIL OR HIS AGENTS.

        and he shall smite the earth with the rod of his mouth,
    and with the breath of his lips shall he slay the wicked.

Spiritus  Spirit in both Hebrew and Greek speaks of a WIND sometimes a violent blast, breathing or gentle blowing of air, a breath, breeze,

2.The breath of a god, inspiration: haec fieri non possent, nisi ea uno divino et continuato spiritu continerentur,by a divine inspiration, Cic. N. D. 2, 7, 19 ; 3, 11, 28; cf.: poëtam quasi divino quodam spiritu inflari,id. Arch. 8, 18 .--

Cicero 17. And, indeed, we have constantly heard from men of the greatest eminence and learning, that the study of other sciences was made up of learning, and rules, and regular method; but that a poet was such by the unassisted work of nature, and was moved by the vigour of his own mind, and was inspired, as it were, by some divine wrath.

5.07.15 John Mark Hicks writes about the "Stone-Campbell Hermeneutics I – Campbell’s Scholarly Baconianism."  Go to "Google" and look up Stone-Campbell Hermeneutics and you will understand mob violence. 

W.R. Walker, in Christian Standard, May 27, 1939, said: "There are two areas in our religious living in which the authority of Christ must be recognized. The first embraces all his teaching and that of his inspired followers, the `vocal area'; but there is another area, the `area of silence."' He further said:

 "I am persuaded that Christ has authority in the `areas of silence.' 

Christ, by his silence, in every situation concerning which he has left no direct teaching,    
has bestowed on me this authority to act for myself."


John Mark Hicks: The “progressives” used THE PRINCIPLE  of Scripture to regulate their practice
        while the “conservatives” followed the specifics of the Scripture as their regulatory authority.
        This difference regarding the regulative principle goes back to Geneva (Calvin) vs. Zurich (Zwingli). (
        See the resources at the end of the post to follow this debate in contemporary conservative Presbyterianism.)

Scripture is largely the ANTITHESIS of Pagans. Those OF the World or Kosmos show up as the Ecumenical of the Kingdom of the Devil. The sons of the Devil SPEAK ON THEIR WON but the Sons of God ALWAYS "Speak that which is written for our LEARNING." Peter outlawed private interpretation or FURTHER EXPOUNDING which Jesus taught to eye-- and ear--witnesses.  There is no INSTITUTION beyond being a School of the Word.


The Christian Standard took the progressive (broader) view
        which emphasized principles and expediency

There were no SCHOLARS at the time me debunked Scripture and deliberately sowed massive discord who believed that Scripture allowed instruments.

January, 1860: "IF any one had told us, forty years ago, that we would live to see the day when those professing to be Christians; who claim the Holy Scriptures as their only rule of faith and practice; those under the command, and who profess to appreciate the meaning of the command, to "observe all things whatever I have commanded you," would bring any instrument of music into a worshiping assembly, and use it there in worship, we should have repelled the idea as an idle dream. But this only shows how little we know of what men would do; or how little we saw of the power or the adversary to subvert the purest principles, to deceive the hearts of the simple, to undermine the very foundation of all piety, and turn the very worship of God itself into an attraction for the people of the world, an entertainment, or amusement.

It never entered into our mind that people once enlightened, and made partakers of the heavenly calling, could so easily be turned away from the contemplation of the ever-blessed God, his wonderful love for man, and the scheme of redemption; from our Lord, the Christ; all he said and did; his great sufferings for us, his death, resurrection, ascension and coronation; being crowned Lord of all, imparting gifts to men; his grace, his blood, the remission of sins, the impartation of the Spirit; the ransom of man from the grave; the change of his vile body into an immortal [411]  body; the now heaven and now earth, wherein dwelleth righteousness; the presence of the Almighty Father, and the Lord Jesus, the Christ; the pure and the holy angels, with songs of everlasting joys in the great assembly of the ransomed of the Lord, out of every nation, and kindred, and tribe, and people, from under the whole heaven, to dwell with God and the Lamb forever and ever--

we say, that we had no idea that people could be so easily turned away from the contemplation of all this, and all the pure and heavenly aspirations it inspires, to the mere contemplation of the pleasing sounds of an instrument of music, of the melodious voices of men and women, when trained in artistic music, and taught how to perform their part well in an operatic drama.

while the Gospel Advocate took the conservative (stricter)
        view which emphasized specified authority and prohibitive silence.
      
Scripture and all historic scholars and founders of religious institutions rested totally Upon the Apostles and Prophets taught and enabled by gifts from Jesus in His STATE as Holy Spirit.  Apostolic meant the preserved Scriptures. Apostolic meant to the Catholics and others that the next Presbyter be someone to guarantee that the Scriptures were Preserved.

After sowing massive discord within the Disciples-Christians the word PSALLO was used for the first time in an attempt to prove that plucking a bowstring, pubic hair or harp strings with the HAND ONLY was justification for wind and string instruments and a whole Performance Sect.  Neither they nor anyone I know understands that only SPEAK or READ the Scriptures was clearly commanded.

While doing Theology and "worshiping" God in houses built by hands and worshiping with the works of human hands there is no reason that a professional religionist should be either Bible or history literate.

Plutarch XXIV. But when he was once come into Asia, having left Lucius Censorinus governor in Greece, and that he had felt the riches and pleasures of the east parts, and that princes, great lords, and kings, came to wait at his gate for his coming out: and that queens and princesses, to excel one another, gave him very rich presents,
        and came to see him, curiously setting forth themselves,
        and using all art that might be to shew their beauty,
        to win his favour the more (Caesar in the mean space turmoiling [troubling] his wits and body
        in civil Wars at home,
        Antonius living merrily and quietly abroad), he easily fell again to his old licentious life.

For straight, [The pattern]
        one Anaxenor, a player of the cithern [guitarist],
        Xoutus, a player of the flute,
        Metrodorus a tumbler, [orkhēstēs]
        and such a rabble of minstrels and
        fit ministers for the pleasures of Asia [thia^s-os  Bacchic revel, rout “Mousōn]
                (who in fineness and flattery passed all the other plagues
                he brought with him out of Italy),
                all these flocked in his court, and bare the whole sway: and after that all went awry.

For every one gave themselves to riot and excess, when they saw he delighted in it: and all Asia was like to the city Sophocles speaketh of in one of his tragedies:

        Was full of sweet perfumes and pleasant songs,  [The church invaders]
        With woeful weeping mingled there-amongs.       [Those being invaded]

For in the city of Ephesus, WOMEN, attired as they go in the feasts and sacrifice of [Dionysus] Bacchus, [Wrath or Orgy]
        came out to meet him with such solemnities and ceremonies
        as are then used: with men and children disguised like fauns and satyrs.
        [Pans, Cappellas, Definition of Beasts]

Moreover, the city was full of ivy, and darts [SHAKEN REEDS]
        wreathed about with ivy, [HIDING A SPEAR]
        psalterions , flutes, and howboyes [hautboys]; [Oboe]

        and in their songs they called him Bacchus, father of mirth, courteous and gentle
                and so was he unto some,
                but to the most part of men cruel and extreme. [Savage]

That is why SPEAK excludes Singing or Instruments as Anti-Logos and Anti-Christ

These are the BEASTS of Revelation and the MARKERS. This is the PATTERN MARKED by music as ONLY PLEASURE, of the PROGRESSIVES

For he robbed noblemen and gentlemen of their goods, [lied about tithes and offerings]
        to give it unto vile flatterers: [Religious staff were known as Parasites]
        who oftentimes begged living men's goods
        as though they had been dead,
        and would enter their houses by force. [Congretation]
                As he gave a citizen's house of Magnesia unto a cook,
                because (as it is reported) he dressed him a fine supper.
                In the end he doubled the taxation, and imposed a second upon Asia.

The former saw instrumental music as an expediency (in both the Stone-Campbell and Presbyterian traditions)
        and the latter saw instrumental music as an apostate innovation
        that corrupted the worship of God (in both the Stone-Campbell and Presbyterian traditions).

This was not the general population which deserted the Stoneites and began Preaching Campbell's well-educated facts.

There is no MUSIC in the modern sense in Scripture or up to and after the Reformation. 

Matthew 28 Jesus defines the CENI Versus Lying Wonders
Jeremiah 7 and the Law of Silence

The denial of Christ's inclusive and exclusive commandments for Messiah's future REST in the Prophets (only), is in contrast to the  STONE-Campbell Movement building "theaters for holy entertainment" into which God will never visit. 

You will have to elevate the temperature of the Phd DEGREES to invalidate Peter's command that these Prophets and the prophecies made more certain must NOT be private-interpret or further expounded: that would spit in the face of the Holy Spirit OF Christ who is the Author and Finisher of Both. 

It is a recorded fact that a small band of theologians [Study of Apollon-Abaddon in history] set out to RESTRUCTURE Churches of Christ in their own image. Then and now they followed the same path to reach the same 100 year old goal. Unfortunately, "neuter" theology does not reproduce itself and after the winds of change have passed "those scarcely saved" pick up the pieces and rebuild.

See the Regulative Principle and Churches of Christ

The ANTI-Patternists or ANTI-sectarians fail to grasp or intentionally DISOBEY The Direct command and approved inferences of Jesus Christ. 

1. Christ prophesied and Jesus put into place "The SECT that is called the WAY."
2. The Way is the ROAD which is a very narrow, exclusive PATTERN
3. The WORLD or Kosmos includes the ECUMENICAL or masses.

The Jesus SECT is a Little Flock picked out of the MEGA World View: Many or most are called or invited but FEW -- almost none -- are chosen.  The Most deny the Jesus pattern and claim that "a" spirit told them about a New Paradigm. The Jesus Road or pattern is ALWAYS Said-Listen or Written-Read. 

John 8:23 And he SAID unto them, Ye are from beneath; I am from ABOVE:
        ye are OF this world; I am NOT OF this world. [ecumenical self-willed]
John 8:24 I SAID therefore unto you, that ye shall die in your sins:
        for if ye believe not that I am he, ye shall die in your sins.
John 8:25 Then said they unto him, Who art thou? And Jesus SAITH unto them,
         Even the same that I SAID unto you from the beginning. [Not Genesis 1:1]

Jesus obeyed the CENI: you don't need to!

John 8:26 I have many things to SAY and to judge of you: but he that sent me is true;
        and I SPEAK to the world those things which I have HEARD of him.

Jesus SPAKE only the Words which The One God the Father breathed (spirit) into Him.  That revelation was without metron most often meaning without meter. That's good because the Anti-Patternists add meter to the pattern and Jesus forces them to just fabricate their own songs and sermons.

John 8:28 Then SAID Jesus unto them,
            When YOU have lifted up the Son of man,
........... then shall ye know that I am he,
........... And that I do nothing of myself;
........... but as my Father hath taught me,
........... I SPEAK these things.

As Prophesied, they musically mocked Jesus to the cross.

Matthew 27:28 And they stripped him, and put on him a scarlet robe.
Matthew 27:31 And after that they had mocked him, they took the robe off from him,
        and put his own raiment on him, and led him away to crucify him.

Looking for God's inferences

John 8:29 And he that sent me is with me:
........... the Father hath not left me alone;
........... for I do alway those things that please him.

You don't have to!

John 8:30 As he SPAKE these words, many believed on him.
John 8:31 Then SAID Jesus to those Jews which believed on him,
        If ye continue in MY WORD, [Logos: regulative principle: CENI]
        then are ye my disciples indeed;

You don't have to!

John 8:32 And ye shall know THE TRUTH, and the truth shall make you free.

John 17:17 Sanctify them through thy truth: thy word is truth.
2Cor. 6:7 By the word of truth, by the power of God, by the armour of righteousness on the right hand and on the left,
James 1:18 Of his own will begat he us with the word of truth, that we should be a kind of firstfruits of his creatures.

John 8: 35 And the servant abideth not in the house for ever:
         but the Son abideth ever.
John 8: 36 If the Son therefore shall make you free,
        ye shall be free indeed.

The glorified Son was given the promise or assignment as Holy Spirit Comforter: John said that the name of the comforter is Jesus Christ the Righteous.

Jesus did not abdicate His Throne to a spirit person. If you deny the PATTERN you are defined as ANTI-Christ because He walked a carefully defined plan.

The Kenites or Cainites gained control of the Priesthood almost from the beginning: God had turned them over to worship the STARRY HOST because of musical idolatry were NOT worthy of hearing Jesus. Therefore, He spoke to them in parables. THESE were predestinated to be lost based on their own choices.

When people question the Words of Christ they question God and HE sends strong delusions so that they believe a lie and ae damned. When you fall you cannot get up and THAT was the message about the FALL produced by music.

John 8:37 I know that ye are Abrahams seed; but ye seek to kill me,
........... because my WORD (logos) hath no place in you.

John 8: 38 I SPEAK that which I have seen with my Father:
........... and ye do that which ye have seen with your father. [the Devil]

John 8: 39 They answered and SAID unto him,
........... Abraham is our father. Jesus SAID unto them,
........... If ye were Abrahams children, ye would do the works of Abraham.

It is true that the Campbells learned about the Regulative Principle by reading John Calvin.  However, it is bad news when people do not grasp that the LOGOS is the Regulative Principle.  The Greeks would think of Hermes or Mercury as the LOGOS but of musical worship, homosexuality, the messenger of the Olympus gods and the chief of liars.  God made Jesus to be both Lord and Christ and Word and Grace: HE is the one mediator between God and man which defines why both male and female are to be silent in church so that everyone can be saved and come to a knowledge of the truth.

LITERATE PEOPLE UNDERSTOOD THE REGULATIVE PRINCIPLE:

Aristot. Nic. Eth. 1102b.1o But there also appears to be another element in the soul,
        which, though irrational

        [alogos, without logos,  B rutes, animals,  The Crowd, Okhlos  popular assemblies (in a contemptuous sense)
        “sarkōn

       yet in a manner participates in rational principle. [logou]
In self-restrained and unrestrained people we approve their principle,
        or the rational part of because it urges them in the right way and exhorts them to the best course;
but their nature seems also
        to contain another element beside that of rational principle,
        which combats and resists that principle.
        [16] Exactly the same thing may take place in the soul as occurs with the body in a case of paralysis:
        when the patient wills to move his limbs to the right

Aristot. Nic. Eth. 1102b.20 they swerve to the left; and similarly in unrestrained persons their impulses run counter to their principle. But whereas in the body we see the erratic member, in the case of the soul we do not see it; nevertheless it cannot be doubted that in the soul also there is an element beside that of principle, which opposes and runs counter to principle （though in what sense the two are distinct does not concern us here）.
[17] But this second element also seems, as we said, to participate in rational principle;
         at least in the self-restrained man it obeys the behest of principle—
        and no doubt in the temperate and brave man it is still more amenable, for all parts of his nature are in harmony with principle. [18]

Note: 1 According to the psychology here expounded, the intellect ‘has a plan or principle,’ in the sense of understanding principle, and being able to reason and make a plan: in other words, it is fully RATIONAL. The  part of man's nature ‘has a plan or principle’ in so far as it is capable of following or obeying a principle. It happens that this relationship of following or obeying can itself be expressed by the words  to have logos’ in another sense of that phrase, viz. ‘to take account of, pay heed to.’
To be precise the writer should say that the  part logon ekhei tou logou ‘has logos （takes account） of the logos.’ The phrase has yet a third sense in mathematics, where “to have logos” （ratio） means ‘to be rational’ in the sense of commensurable.

WORSHIP is the diversionary word to make certain that The Church of Christ cannot function as A School of the LOGOS: it is so defined as the Qahal or Ekklesia in the Wilderness after the nobility including the Jacob-cursed and God abandoned Levites.  After the transgression which was the instrumental idolatry of the Egyptian triad, God turned them over to worship the STARRY HOST. When false teachers speak of a WORSHIP OBSERVATION they use the Levites and the God-abandoned Civil-Military-Clergy complex.  The rise of the original Babylon Mother of Harlots (Rev 17) uses the same self-speakers, singers and instrument players: John calls them SORCERERS and said they will be cast alive into the Lake of Fire.

John says that all religious teknokrats, singers, instrument players and "grinders" which identifies prostitute. A religious prostitute is one who corrupts the Word by "selling learning at retail" beyond that which is written for our learning.  John calls the sorcerers who HAD deceived the whole world.  Sorcery identifies the ancient Babylon mother of harlots which agrees with the Bible and recorded history of what everyone knew: religious rhetoricians, singers, instrument players and actors are OLD SPIRITS and their intention is to Seek and Destroy all they can seduce.

THE ANCIENTS BEFORE THE POST-LITERATE ERA OF THEOLOGIANS KNEW THE MEANING OF MUSIC

"But we have already spoken of spectacles: there remains one thing which is to be overcome by us,
        that we be not captivated by those things which penetrate to the innermost perception. (emotions only)
        For all those things which are unconnected with words, (just speaking in tongues)
        that is, pleasant sounds of the air and of strings,
        may be easily disregarded, because they do not adhere to us, and cannot be written...

Is God, therefore, the contriver both of the mind, and of the voice, and of the tongues, unable to speak eloquently? Yea, rather, with the greatest foresight,
        He wished those things which are divine to be without adornment,
        that all might understand the things which He Himself spoke to all." 

Therefore God made all things to supply a contest between two things.

Those enticements of pleasures, then, are the instruments
        of that whose only business it is to subdue virtue,
        and to shut out justice from men.
With these soothing influences and enjoyments it captivates their souls;
        for it knows that pleasure is the contriver of death. (Lactantius,
        The Divine Institutes, Ante-Nicene Fathers, VII, p. 188).

That's why the DIRECT command of Paul was to silence SELF-pleasure pointing to rhetoric, singing, playing instruments or anything that arouses "mental excitement" or the "laded burden" of Jesus.

Only then can one follow the Direct Command of the NEVER MUSICAL passages to "use one mind and one mouth to speak that which is written for our learning."  Or comforting by the Scriptures.

The almost universal understanding of those who impose any performance especially the sounds of strings and wind was that the people are NOT simply uninformed: they are Purpose Driven to fully occupy the attention of the mind (the worship meaning) so that they can WORSHIP the Mother Goddess which is defined as "giving attention to the flute-girls or harp-girls).  No society was so far gone that they tolerated flute-boys and harp-boys: the practice was to "tar and feather them and drive them across the county line."

Aristot. Nic. Eth. 1175b.1

But things that are akin to things of different kinds must themselves differ in kind.
        [3] A still clearer proof may be drawn
        from the hindrance that activities
        receive from the pleasure derived from other activities.

For instance, persons fond of the flute
        cannot give their attention to a philosophical discussion [The LOGOS or Regulative Principle]
        when they overhear someone playing the flute,
        because they enjoy music more than the activity in which they are engaged;
                therefore the pleasure afforded by the music of the flute
                impairs the activity of study.

[4] The same thing occurs in other cases when a man tries to do two things at once; the pleasanter activity drives out the other, the more so if it is much more pleasant, until the other activity ceases altogether.

Hence, when we enjoy something very much, we can hardly do anything else; and when we find a thing only mildly agreeable, we turn to some other occupation; for instance, people who eat sweets at the theater do so especially when the acting is bad.

[ 5] And since our activities [of the flute] are sharpened, prolonged and improved by their own pleasure, and impaired by the pleasures of other activities, it is clear that pleasures differ widely from each other. In fact alien pleasures have almost the same effect on the activities as their own pains; since, when an activity causes pain, this pain destroys it, for instance, if a person finds writing or doing sums unpleasant and irksome; for he stops writing or doing sums, because the activity is painful.

Many or most are called or invited but FEW are chosen as if by fire. Therefore, the MARK of the MANY is that they will do anything to make sure that Jesus Christ as the VICTIM is "made dumb before the slaughter." The present state of apostate universities is the product of a few men interested in money, power or else agents of satan such as Judas whose BAG was for carrying the mouth pieces of wind instruments ALWAYS attached to a flute case of obscene worship teams.

Aristotle on Politics 8
2. or whether we ought rather to think that music tends in some degree to virtue (music being capable of producing a certain quality of character
        just as gymnastics are capable of producing a certain quality of body,
        music accustoming men to be able to rejoice rightly);
3. or that it contributes something to intellectual entertainment and culture (for this must be set down as a third alternative among those mentioned).
        Now it is not difficult to see that one must not make amusement the object of the education of the young;
        for amusement does not go with learning--learning is a painful process.
 

Once-Christian Colleges especially the Bible departments have been confiscated by deliberate misleaders and they make certain that no one can BUY or SELL at the institutions or the continuous conferences unless they are part of the gang:

A cabal is a group of people united in some close design together, usually to promote their private views or interests in a church, state, or other community, often by intrigue. Cabals are sometimes secret societies composed of a few designing persons, and at other times are manifestations of emergent behavior in society or governance on the part of a community of persons who have well established public affiliation or kinship. The term can also be used to refer to the designs of such persons or to the practical consequences of their emergent behavior, and also holds a general meaning of intrigue and conspiracy

Paul M. Blowers Leaven V14.I4:  Theologians are about RESOURCMENT: Leonard Allen calls it "critical engagement with the past. "Such involves intelligent, discreet conversation with those historic sources of Christian thought and practices that have much to teach about worship and the interpretation of scripture:

They (saints and martyrs, bishops, church fathers and theologians, reformers, missionaries, et al.) have historically MEDIATED the transmission of the "apostolic tradition."

They have imitated the suffering servanthood of the apostles, organized and adapted roles of ministry, made decisions about canonical Christian scripture, identified a coherent Rule of Faith (regula fidei), negotiated conflict within the church, covenanted again and again with Jesus Christ in eucharistic worship, exemplified missionary witness in contextualizing the gospel in their native cultures,

Apostolic Succession meant that when a Bishop died He guaranteed that everyone would be APOSTOLIC which was not a tradition.  Jesus defined Holy Scripture as the PROPHETS and other PROPHECIES Concerning Me.  God put His WORD into the MOUTH of A Moses, the Prophets and Lastly His Son Jesus.  Jesus certified or made these prophecies More Certain and God's SPIRIT validated that by Signs and Wonders.  The Apostles were eye-- and ear-- witnesses and men like Peter left His PART for out memory. This would mark anyone who did not speak that which was written as a false teacher.

Eph. 2:20 And are built upon [Educated] the foundation of the apostles and prophets,
        Jesus Christ himself being the chief corner stone;

This intends to OBSOLETE the LOGOS because He did not know as much as the post-moderns who HEAR VOICES telling them to lie to God and about the God in Christ in the olden Bible. That clearly marks ANTI-LOGOS which is ANTI-CHRIST.

The task of faithful men like John Calvin was to IGNORE the history of religionism and return to the original source for TEACHING but not for the pattern of EMERGENT fads and foolishness.

THERE IS NO REGULATIVE PRINCIPLE FOR THOSE WHO CLAIM TO BE POST-MODERN AND BEYOND THE SACRED PAGES.

The abrogated Great Commission defines the Regulative Principle as what Jesus commanded to be taught to disciples baptized requesting A holy spirit so they can tead BLACK text on BROWN paper.

Hom. Il. 9.417 It was to thee that the old horseman Peleus sent me on the day when he sent thee to Agamemnon, forth from Phthia, [440] a mere child, knowing naught as yet of evil war, neither of gatherings wherein men wax preeminent. For this cause sent he me to instruct thee in all these things, to be both a speaker of words and a doer of deeds. Wherefore, dear child, I am not minded hereafter [445] to be left alone without thee, nay, not though a god himself should pledge him to strip from me my old age and render me strong in youth as in the day when first I left Hellas, the home of fair women, fleeing from strife with my father Amyntor, son of Ormenus; for he waxed grievously wroth against me by reason of his fair-haired concubine, [450] whom himself he ever cherished, and scorned his wife, my mother. So she besought me by my knees continually, to have dalliance with that other first myself, that the old man might be hateful in her eyes. ”

WHAT JESUS COMMANDED TO BE TAUGHT

Entellō ,

A. enjoin, command, Act. only in Pi.O.7.40, S.Fr.269:— mostly in Med., “tini ti” Hdt.1.47, etc.; in a will, “philois tauta entellomai” Diog.Oen.66: c. dat. pers. et inf., Hdt.1.53, Pl.R.393e, etc.; enteilasthai apo glōssēs command by word of mouth, Hdt.1.123: so in pf., “entetaltai” LXX 3 Ki.13.17; “entetalmenoi eiēsan” Plb.18.2.1, cf. Hdn.1.9.9:—Pass., “ta entetalmena” commands, Hdt.1.60,5.73, S. Fr.462, X.Cyr.5.5.3.

II. invest with legal powers, authorize to act, “e. soi kai epitrepō” PLips.38.5 (iv A. D.), cf. PMasp.124.6 (vi A. D.).

First: 1317. didaktiko didaktikos, did-ak-tik-os´; from 1318; instructive (“didactic”): — apt to teach.

Second: baptism in the NAME of Jesus Christ (not a magical formula). Christ removes sin from THEIR spirit so they have A holy spirit. This, says Paul in 2 Corinthians 3, is the only way you request A good conscience (co-perception) so that you can read BLACK text on BROWN paper.

Third :1319. didaskali÷a didaskalia, did-as-kal-ee´-ah; from 1320; instruction (the function or the information): — doctrine, learning, teaching.

Because THE meaning of turning to Hermes (pagan Logos) instead of Christ in the prophets and apostles has at its CORE imposing INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC into the School of the Word, Blowers and everyone would truly be amazed (or not) if they discovered that the Church Fathers and reformers were faithful to the Scriptures by denying any role for self-speakers, singers or instrument players whom Jesus marked as hypocrites.  He might be amazed that the eucharistic concept is "giving thanks" and not participating in the perpetual shedding of the blood of Jesus. Consistent with all ReligionHoods, Hermes is also the mark of the gender confused.  Moving rebuttal to false teachings further down, we are happy to append the latest fad from a Nashville church:

Thou has Turned My Mourning into Dancing. Perhaps by God's design, they didn't read enough to understand that this is the GENDER mark well documented by Christ in Isaiah 3.

FINAL WARNING FOR DISCIPLES WHO WILL--BY DEFINITION--ATTEND SCHOOL OF THE WORD AND NOT OBSCENE THEATRICS The Romans, at their own request, obtain from them skilled performers-the proper seasons-the name too, for it is said they are called Ludi, from Lydi. And though Varro derives the name of Ludi from Ludus, that is, from play, as they called the Luperci also Ludii, because they ran about making sport; still that sporting of young men belongs, (playful or ludicrous) in his view, to festal days and temples, and objects of religious veneration. Matthew 27:29 And when they had platted a crown of thorns, they put it upon his head, and a reed in his right hand:         and they bowed the knee before him,         and mocked him, saying, Hail, King of the Jews! Matthew 27:31 And after that they had mocked him, they took the robe off from him,         and put his own raiment on him, and led him away to crucify him. illūdo (inl- I  Neutr., to play at or with any thing, to sport with, amuse one's self with (syn. colludo; cf. ludificor). 1.

IT IS SUGGESTED THAT ALEXANDER WOULD HAVE BEEN IGNORANT IN THIS ONE OF MANY CLEAR TEACHINGS.

Theologians and hermeneuts deny Pau who saw and heard the risen Spirit Jesus of Nazareth.

Titus 2:12 Teaching us that, denying ungodliness and worldly lusts,
        we should live soberly, righteously, and godly, in this present world;

Men and women must be SILENT to hear the PREACHING being READ as the "pattern" so that:

1Timothy 2:4 Who will have all men to be saved,
        and to come unto the knowledge of the truth.
1Timothy 2:5 For there is one God,
        and one mediator between God and men,
        the MAN Christ Jesus;
1Timothy 2:6 Who gave himself a ransom for all, to be testified in due time.

Ephesians 2:19 Now therefore ye are no more strangers and foreigners,
        but fellowcitizens with the saints, and of the household of God;
Ephesians 2:20 And are built upon [Educated by] the foundation of the apostles and prophets,
        Jesus Christ himself being the chief corner stone;
Ephesians 2:21 In whom all the building fitly framed together groweth
        unto an holy temple in the Lord:
Ephesians 2:22 In whom ye also are builded together for an habitation of God through the Spirit.

The glorified Jesus received the promise or EVANGELISTIC OFFICE as Holy Spirit and returned at Pentecost and poured out that which you see and hear.

Both men and women are commanded to be IN SILENCE other than PREACHING the Word by READING the Word for comfort and doctrine. That is because no man or woman can usurp the role as Mediator in song or sermon. Sit down and shut up and be silent because Jesus stood up to READ as His PATTERN and then uncommonly-decent SAT DOWN.
No theologian or hermeneut or phrenologist can presume to have paid for the right to be mediator in song and sermon or professorship.

In the first place, the Stone-Campbell Movement Sectarian Division follows the system of "theology" and ignores the TEXT. They repudiate the original agreement made by the Stoneites hoping that the "reformers have come over to us."

1.  Alexander Campbell always denied the possibility that there could be unity between the Christian Church and the Reformed Baptists (Church of Christ) before the 1832 false claim of unity.

2. Preachers gathered in 1832 and shook hands on what is denounced as the Alexander Campbell hermeneutics.

"But an amalgamation of sects is not such a union as Christ prayed for and God enjoins. To agree to be one upon any system of human inventions would be contrary to his will, and could never be a blessing to the church or the world; therefore, the only union practicable or desirable must be based on the word of God as the only rule of faith and practice... 

"I have the more cheerfully resolved on this course, because the gospel is a system of facts, commands, and promises, and no deduction or inference from them, however logical or true, forms any part of the gospel of Jesus Christ. No heaven is promised to those who hold them, and no hell is threatened to those who deny them. They do not constitute, singly or together, an item of the ancient and apostolic gospel. While there is but one faith, there may be ten thousand opinions; and, hence, if Christians are ever to be one, they must be one in faith, and not in opinion. When certain subjects arise, even in conversation or social discussion, about which there is a contrariety of opinion and sensitiveness of feeling, speak of them in the words of the Scripture, and no offense will be given and no pride of doctrine will be encouraged. We may even come, in the end, by thus speaking the same things, to think the same things.

"For several years past I have stood pledged to meet the religious world, or any part of it, on the ancient gospel and order of things as presented in the words of the Book. This is the foundation on which Christians once stood, and on it they can, and ought to, stand again. 

From this I cannot depart to meet any man, or set of men, in the wide world. While, for the sake of peace and Christian union, I have long since waived the public maintenance of any speculation I may hold, yet no one gospel fact, commandment, or promise will I surrender for the world" (Life of Elder John Smith, pages 452-454.)

3. The Stoneites violated that agreement almost before the sweat was dry from that fabled handshake.
4. After the handshake, Alexander Campbell etal denied that their COULD be any unity because Churches of Christ would never agree to a Stoneite CREED or the denominational organization which would repudiate RESTORATION which the Stoneites called a DEFORMATION.

Apostolic succession meant that new Presbyters must be chosen too replace the dying men to make certain that the Scriptures continued down through time without addition.

The SHELL GAME is trying to pass judgment that what they call ANTI-instrumental Churches of Christ are the victims of ignorant men who did the best they could before "postmodernism."   Jesus warned that "doctors of the law take away the key to knowledge: He called the Scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites. In the Ezekiel 33 Spirit OF Christ "mark for avoidance" He names self-speakers, singers and instrument players.  A hypocrite has no other literal meaning than a pretend religionists where instrument players "made the lambs dumb before the slaughter was called a PARASITE: The Heretic was the priests who lifted up the lamb to cut its throat.

NEVER SAY THAT GOD DOES NOT HAVE A SENSE OF HUMOR WHEN HE SENDS STRONG DELUSIONS!

HERMES was the LOGOS THESIS of the Greek and other pagan religions. These were always triads of gods with the "hermeneutic" principle being the authentic interpreter of the gods.  A hermeneut has been deluded by God to play the adversary role of HERMES.

As ANTITHESIS God made Jesus to be both Lord and Christ and Grace and Word: Jesus was God's pattern of a SINGULAR Deity encompassing the always-pagan trinities of father, spirit (mother) and infant son.  There was no person mediator between the Father (thought) and the Son (Word) but the Father's BREATH (spirit). The tiny abused minority, like Job, are called upon to uphold Jesus Christ as LOGOS and that will defeat the Hermes "logos" but don't forget: Many (most) are called (invited) but FEW (almost none) are Chosen because they can read the warning:

Hebrews 11:5 By faith Enoch was translated that he should not see death; and was not found, because God had translated him: for before his translation he had this testimony, that he pleased God.
Hebrews 11:6 But without faith it is impossible to please him:
        for he that cometh to God must believe that he is,
        and that he is a rewarder
        of them that diligently seek him.

The attempt to disqualify Alexander Campbell is founded on the sand that he did not follow the Text--which defines the so-called 'regulative principle' in dozens of ways--but followed the "modern" philosophers and scientists whose object was not to debunk inspiration but the ancient and modern Flat Earth theologians. 

Using the madness of either "wing" of theology does not--as Hicks hopes--change a jot or tittle of the recorded text which is to be read or spoken "for our learning" with the promised result that the "Day Star" will arisen in our hearts.  There is no "postmodern" or "postBiblical" or "postChristian" theologian who can hide from the "human material" or "audience" the fact that the Church of Christ (the Rock) in the Wilderness defines the ONLY purpose for calling people out of their REST as to READ and REHEARSE the Word of God.

To even suggest that people had to use "laws of silence or exclusion" to not be forced to begin to use what they call "instrumental music" to "get along" with the innovators of something new (defines heresy), proves that the ANTIS cannot read BLACK text on BROWN Paper:

2Thessalonians 2:10 And with all deceivableness of unrighteousness in them that perish;
        because they received not the love of the truth, that they might be saved.

The universal PATTERN is to SILENCE those who do not love the truth (theologians) as absolutely necessary to let those who love the truth be "taught that which has been taught."

The New Hermeneuts are almost wholly focused on IMPOSING rhetoric and music to SILENCE "the voice of the Victim."  That is proven by the fact that over and over and over the use of musical instruments are defined by the "serpent" parable.

1 Maccabees 8:41 - All who heard the noise made by their multitude, by the marching of the multitude and the clanking of their arms, trembled, for the army was very large and strong.

"The thin, bronze percussion disks were affixed to metal handles; one from Pompeii is even garnished with pellet bells.  Small bronze bells, which made a clanging rather than ringing sound, warded off evil spirits, averted the evil eye, served as sentinels' and watchmen's signal instruments, or were attached to the handle of a Greek warrior's shield in order to terrify the enemy by their clamour.

Small bells were also frequently worn on anklets by jesters, dancers, and courtesans, particularly in Hellenistic times. In Rome, tintinnabulae ("bells") served as signal instruments or were suspended from the necks of herd animals--again to ward off evil.

Britannica: With the exception of clappers, all these instruments were of bronze; as such they were credited with the apotropaic powers [apo- + trepein to turn] (the special protective powers against evil) accorded this metal in the East. For example, both in various Asian islands and in Greece, it was customary to sound the chalkos at eclipses of the Moon because it has power to purify and to drive off pollutions

Matthew 28:16 Then the eleven disciples went away into Galilee,
        into a mountain where Jesus had appointed them.
Matthew 28:17 And when they saw him, they worshipped him: but some doubted.

You don't need to know the "regulative principle" to understand there is not a remote chance that they preached, sang, played a harp, passed the plate or even prayed!

Matthew 13:54 And when he was come into his own country, he taught them in their synagogue, insomuch that they were astonished, and said, Whence hath this man this wisdom, and these mighty works?

Now, let's see a hermeneut actually PLAY a harp AND hold bowls of incense and WORSHIP at the same time.

Spiritual worship or bowing to or giving attendance to the Word of Christ in the Prophets and Apostles is a clear definition of CENI:

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 Lord's Supper is a showing forth or preaching the DEATH of Jesus: any godly person will infer that they did not die for the right to speak and sing their own "scripture" and be silent along with the women so that we might "all come to a knowledge of the truth.

The Worship word also defines the lying wonders of those who deny Jesus the right to be the only rabbi.

IT TAKES A LOT OF HARD WORK TO DENY THAT THE COMMAND IS TO BUILD (EDUCATE) THE ASSEMBLY BY THE PROPHETS (BY CHRIST) AND THE APOSTLES (THAT WHICH IS WRITTEN FOR OUR LEARNING)

John Mark Hicks: "The Christian Standard took the progressive (broader) view which emphasized principles and expediency while the Gospel Advocate took the conservative (stricter) view which emphasized specified authority and prohibitive silence. The former saw instrumental music as an expediency (in both the Stone-Campbell and Presbyterian traditions) and the latter saw instrumental music as an apostate innovation that corrupted the worship of God (in both the Stone-Campbell and Presbyterian traditions). 

That's False: The Scotland State Church was patterned after the Church of England as a STATE church. Queen Elizabeth rejected the effort to remove the organs because as HEAD of the church she need them for STATE rituals.  The Scotland church also BEGAN to use instruments and the "civilian" churches OPPOSED.  Some of the best papers were written by Presbyterians against the instrument. Many Presbyterians are still Psalmody Only.

In fact, Isaac Errett warned that "instrumental music" was an INNOVATION and would destroy any harmony.  If it was an INNOVATION after 1800 years in the existing churches then it VIOLATES a direct command to teach what Jesus COMMANDED to be taught. There is NO hermeneut who can DENY what John Calvin, the Campbells and all historic scholars who insisted on an APOSTOLIC church.

Yes, we "human fodder" gets the point: Jesus did NOT say "thou shalt NOT write their own songs and sermons

Isaac Errett was personally opposed to the introduction and use of instrumental music in worship. Although he himself wrote almost nothing in the Christian Standard about the music controversy before 1870, when he did begin to express his own views, he explained at least four reasons for his antagonism toward the instrument in worship.

He started by admitting that he simply preferred a capella singing because that was what he had been accustomed to since his youth. But he went on to say that he did not believe that the use of instrumental music in worship could be fairly inferred from the scriptures, the only source of authority on matters of faith and practice.

That should make modern exegetes blush when they now say that God COMMANDED the use of Instruments which God said made NOISE and not "music."  The imposers did not need any authority at the time and promised that the organ (only) would be used to AID the poor SINGING. That said that if the organ was used for WORSHIP rather than for setting the tune it would be SINFUL.

"In addition, Errett was firmly persuaded that the introduction of instruments and the choirs that often accompanied them tended toward transforming corporate worship services into artistic performances.

By far the most important reason prompting Errett to oppose instrumental music in worship was the fact that it was an offense to a large portion of those in the churches. There were too many "very worthy" members who were conscientiously opposed to instruments in worship. If a majority in a church were to decide for the instrument, the conscientious minority would be completely shut off from that part of the worship. After all, "a majority can not sing on one plane and a minority on another."Volume 36/Number 3 Isaac Errett: Unity and Expediency Douglas Foster Abilene Christian University

Isaac Errett, being an honorable man, proves that the INNOVATORS are the ones who EXCLUDE anyone who will not participate in what he said could NOT even be inferred From Scripture the ONLY authority for faith and practice.

I am not certain how John Mark Hicks has rejected all historic scholarship and the Bible and wants to be hated by God: songs in the temple and sowing discord.

Proverbs 6:12 A naughty person, a wicked man, walketh with a froward mouth.
Proverbs 6:13 He winketh with his eyes, he speaketh with his feet, he teacheth with his fingers;
Proverbs 6:14 Frowardness is in his heart, he deviseth mischief continually; he soweth discord.

Matthew 13:37 He answered and said unto them,
        He that soweth the good seed is the Son of man;
Matthew 13:38 The field is the world; the good seed are the children of the kingdom;
        but the tares are the children of the wicked one;
Matthew 13:39 The enemy that sowed them is the devil; the harvest is the end of the world; and the reapers are the angels.
Matthew 13:40 As therefore the tares are gathered and burned in the fire;
        so shall it be in the end of this world.

Luke 8:10 And he said, Unto you it is given to know the mysteries of the kingdom of God:
        but to others in parables; that seeing they might not see,
        and hearing they might not understand.
Luke 8:11 Now the parable is this: The seed is the word of God.
Luke 8:12 Those by the way side are they that hear; then cometh the devil,
        and taketh away the word out of their hearts,
        lest they should believe and be saved.

The DEVIL is excluded by Paul in Romans after silencing doubtful disputations or private opinions in Romans 14:

Romans 15:1 We then that are strong ought to bear the infirmities of the weak, and not to please ourselves.
Romans 15:2 Let every one of us please his neighbour for his good to edification.
Romans 15:3 For even Christ pleased not himself; but, as it is written, The reproaches of them that reproached thee fell on me.
Romans 15:4 For whatsoever things were written aforetime were written for our learning, that we through patience and comfort of the scriptures might have hope.

The Stone-Campbell Movement was conceived and dedicated to debunking any and all of what they call "distinctives" as a product of traditionalism or legalism: that, they contend was a vile virus passed down from godly ancestors with no roots in either Scripture of church history.

He grinds divinity of other days

Down into modern use; transforms old print

To zigzag manuscript, and cheats the eyes

Of gallery critics by a thousand arts. - Cowper.

Great Reformation in religion and morality follows the right of people to Read the Bible for themselves devoid of being filtered through clergy: burden laders of the laded burden.  

John Hus, actively promoted Wycliffe’s ideas: that people should be permitted to read the Bible in their own language, and they should oppose the tyranny of the Roman church that threatened anyone possessing a non-Latin Bible with execution. Hus was burned at the stake in 1415, with Wycliffe’s manuscript Bibles used as kindling for the fire. The last words of John Hus were that, “in 100 years, God will raise up a man whose calls for reform cannot be suppressed.” Almost exactly 100 years later, in 1517, Martin Luther nailed his famous 95 Theses of Contention (a list of 95 issues of heretical theology and crimes of the Roman Catholic Church) into the church door at Wittenberg. The prophecy of Hus had come true! Martin Luther went on to be the first person to translate and publish the Bible in the commonly-spoken dialect of the German people; a translation more appealing than previous German Biblical translations. Foxe’s Book of Martyrs records that in that same year, 1517, seven people were burned at the stake by the Roman Catholic Church for the crime of teaching their children to say the Lord’s Prayer in English rather than Latin. 

Today, there are only two known copies left of Tyndale’s 1525-26 First Edition. Any copies printed prior to 1570 are extremely valuable. Tyndale's flight was an inspiration to freedom-loving Englishmen who drew courage from the 11 years that he was hunted. Books and Bibles flowed into England in bales of cotton and sacks of flour. Ironically, Tyndale’s biggest customer was the King’s men, who would buy up every copy available to burn them… and Tyndale used their money to print even more! In the end, Tyndale was caught: betrayed by an Englishman that he had befriended. Tyndale was incarcerated for 500 days before he was strangled and burned at the stake in 1536. Tyndale’s last words were, "Oh Lord, open the King of England’s eyes".  Timeline

Men like Alexander and Thomas Campbell were rare candles who rediscovered the Biblical mandate to "Speak where the Bible Speaks and be silent where the Bible is silent." That had nothing to do with the neo-pope's pattern theology about a list of ACTS.  The Campbells were Disciples of the Word after escaping theological captivity and understood that inclusive and exclusive pattern for the Qahal, synagogue, ekklesia or Church of Christ (the Rock) in the wilderness.

People were Wise Unto Salvation from the wilderness onward:

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 Campbell's understood that "Jesus paid it all" and taught it all:
The Christian Baptist VolII no 3

"WHILE many writers and teachers, some of them too of high repute in the christian world, so called, compliment christianity, I mean the New Testament exhibition of it, upon the superexcellency of its moral dictates,  who, at the same time are ignorant of, and even averse to, the religion it inculcates; and whilst others profess to embrace it as a system of religion,

without imbibing the spirit, realizing the truth, and experiencing the power of its religious institutions; but merely superstruct to themselves, rest in, and are satisfied with, a form (acts) of godliness; and that, very often, a deficient, imperfect form, or such as their own imagination has devised;

See Why Thomas Paine was a Deist.

"let us, with an open bible before us, distinguish and contemplate that religion which it enjoins and exhibits--
        I mean the religion of christianity, for it also exhibits the religion of Judaism;
        but with this, in the mean time,
        we christians have nothing directly to do--
        we derive our religion immediately from the New Testament.
The author and ultimate object of our holy religion, is the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, by his Spirit, speaking in Christ and his holy apostles. The principle of this holy religion within us, is faith, a correspondent faith; that is, a belief, or inwrought persuasion by, and according to, the word of truth, in all points corresponding to the revelation which God has made of himself through Jesus Christ by the Spirit. Hence, being rooted and grounded in the truth of this revelation, by faith in the divine testimony, we contemplate and worship God inwardly; that is, adore and reverence him in our souls, according to the characters and attributes under which he has revealed himself to us. Thus we worship the Father, through the Son, by the Spirit, relying upon his teachings in and by the word, to lead as into all the truth which he has testified for our edification and salvation; and also upon his internal influence to excite, instruct, and comfort us, by the truth; to help our infirmities, and to enable us to think and pray as we ought, both as to the matter and manner of our prayers. See Rom. viii. 26, and Jude 22, 21, with a multitude of other scriptures. Thus we have the internal religion, the habitual worship of the real believer, the sincere bible-taught christian with its principle; which is the faith above described. See Rom. x. 12-15.TC

The third is, that these supernaturally endowed apostles, prophets, evangelists, pastors and teachers, were to continue only for a limited time, marked by an adverb in Greek and English, which always denotes the time how long--mechri, "until we all come to the unity of the faith and of the knowledge of the Son of God, to a perfect man, even to the measure of the stature of the fulness of Christ, that we, the church, be not always composed of nepioi, babes."--

In consequence of such teaching as this, how is the third great and fundamental ordinance of our holy religion, the religious use of the Divine Word, obscured and perverted. 

With what uninteresting formality, and coldrife indifference, do many read it; even of those who place some part of their religious worship in daily reading a portion of Holy Scripture, as if the mere reading of it were to save them. 

Under what a cloud of errors and prejudices are the generality introduced to this sacred book! Some calling it a sealed book; others, a book hard to be understood, nay, almost unintelligible, except to the learned or inspired; and others again, a dead letter. 

The great majority of our modern teachers, like the false prophets of old, countenance and promote these errors and prejudices by their pretendedly learned or whimsical interpretations, spinning out lengthy discourses from a single sentence or clause of a sentence, thus teaching the hearers to believe that nobody can understand it but themselves. In this manner they steal the word from the people, feeding them with their own dreams and notions, instead of causing them to hear, and attend to the word of the Lord.

Updated 5.05.13

The CENI in the Marching Orders of Jesus was to  GO and make Disciples (don't go to theatrical worship services) by baptizing them and then teaching what JESUS commanded to be taught.  Jesus promised to be with them until the end of the World. Therefore, if you are a Disciple or Christian you don't have any impulses to INTERPRET it to mean what Jesus would have said if HE had the advantage of our scholarship.

Peter makes that include the PROPHETS (never part of scholarly theology) by the Spirit OF Christ and the prophecies made more certain by Jesus Christ and left for our memory by their eye-and ear-witness.  If you are not about 2,000 years old you have nothing to say but what has been said.  There is no 'theology' which can trump universal historic scholarship: if you exegete (re magic) in order to justify an imposed teaching or practice, the Spirit OF Christ has laid down may parallel versions to disqualify that derived dogma.

Paul outlawed "doubtful disputations" about practices in the marketplace (Romans 14) and permitted only that which edifies or educates: in Romans 15 the command is to use one mind and one mouth speaking "that which is written for our learning." [Romans 15].  History informs us of the market place practices in Rome.

Peter outlawed any person's right to PRIVATE INTERPRETATION which means further expounding. Paul excluded Corrupting the Word which means "selling learning at wholesale."

Peter taught that by GIVING HEED (the only worship concept) to the Word the Day Star would arise in our hearts. We don't REinterpret or use it to make DOGMA patterns always knowing that one will be hated by God for sowing discord.

If you rewrite that record using theology then you simply cannot be a Disciple or Christian meaning "to teach what He commanded to be taught." If you speak what Jesus as the Son heard from the Father then that will get you "despised and rejected of men" and probably hurt real bad.

Within Churches of Christ (never part of a Stone movement) hermeneutics as posted wishes to use "imagination" or obscuration to blind those who understand the SPEAK word in the never-musical passages.  The Logos forms of teaching "that which has been taught" was always used as the OPPOSITE of rhetoric, poetry, music, personal experiences or drama.  In the year 1878 the Stone wing invented the PSALLO word to say that God now COMMANDS the use of instruments in what the Spirit OF Christ and the Campbells called A School of Christ. Paul thought that one could understand the Will of the Lord from the first record of the Serpent as a singing and harp-playing prostitute or a musical Enchanter(ess) onward.  The Hermeneutic mantra will always try to justify "taking an AXE to the ANTI-instrumental position."

EXAMPLE THE TEXT

Ephesians 5:17 Wherefore be ye not unwise, but understanding what the will of the Lord is.
Ephesians 5:18 And be not drunk with wine, wherein is excess; but be filled with the Spirit;
Ephesians 5:19 Speaking to yourselves in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs,
        singing and making melody IN your heart to the Lord;

Psallo means pluck or smite with your fingers and NEVER with a plectrum. It has absolutely no "tuneful" concept. It is always pointing to Apollo (Abaddon, Apollyon) who made his bow-string twang to send forth a "singing" arrow into a literaly heart. Or it points to Apollo who twanged his lyre to send forth a love-arrow into one of his male congregation.

Paul said that musical idolatry at Mount Sinai is OUR PATTERN.  If you spend lots of time on FOOD and MUSIC then you need theology.

1Corinthians 10:6 Now these things were our examples,
         to the intent we should not lust after evil things, as they also lusted.
1Corinthians 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.

Paizō

4. play on a musical instrument, h.Ap.206: c. acc., “Pan ho kalamophthogga paizōn” Ar.Ra.230; dance and sing, Pi. O.1.16.

5. play amorously, “pros allēlous”

"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).

See Exodus 32 as the PATTERN for the musical idolatry of the trinity as without redemption.

POSTMODERNISM: what the Law of Silence and theology gives us the right to MODERNIZE.

Even though there is never any literary evidence that PSALLO had any connection to musical melody and much less complex-harmony, the Hermeneuts following Hermes interprets this to mean:

Ephesians 5:17 Wherefore be ye senseless of the statutes, be frantic, be foolish
        but just listen to the will of the new musical mediators
Ephesians 5:18 You may be fluted down with wine or intoxicated on ignorance.
        and be filled with charismatic ecstasy
Ephesians 5:19 Singing to the Audience
        In erotic, senseless praise songs,
        singing and making music upon a harp to the audience.

The PSALLO word absolutely OUTLAWS any instrument without a string to be struck with your finger and NEVER with a plectrum.

Someone read that interpretation or explanation is the Greek hermēn-euma and thus was born a massive new industry where men waged to teach the Bible (as it has been taught) decided that, like the Scribes and Pharisees whom Jesus named hypocrites where the Spirit OF Christ had named self-speakers, singers and instrument player, that by inventing their own commandments they could make more money. 

"Specialists of the law known as "scribes" devoted themselves to its study and subtle interpretation, and the pious beheld the highest moral accomplishment in the extremely conscientious observance of every precept.

Trying to interpret God began with Eve: Paul knew all about Eve..“Not surprisingly, most Israelites declined the prophet’s invitation to enter into a dialog with Yahweh.  They preferred a less demanding religion of cultic observance either in the Jerusalem Temple or in the old fertility cults of Canaan.  This continues to  be the case: the religion of compassion is followed only by a minority; most religious people are content with decorous worship in synagogue, church, temple and mosque.  The ancient Canaanite religions were still flourishing in Israel... the Israelites were still taking part in fertility rites and sacred sex there, as we see in the oracles of the prophet Hosea, Amos’ contemporary.” (Armstrong, Karen, A History of God, p. 47).

THE TEXT HAS JESUS SAYING THAT THE KINGDOM DOES NOT COME WITH OBSERVATION: MEANING RELIGIOUS RITUALS.

Observātiō ōnis, observo, a watching, observance, investigation: observationes animadvertebant, your searches for evidence: siderum.— Circumspection, care, exactness: summa in bello movendo.
A. An office, duty, service (eccl. Lat.): “Dei sui et expiationis,” Vulg. 2 Esdr. 12, 44: “in observationibus sicut fas est,” id. 1 Macc. 12, 11.—
B. An observation, remark; a precept, rule (post-Aug.), Plin. 17, 21, 35, § 163: “dare observationes aliquas coquendi,” id. 22, 23, 47, § 99: “sermonis antiqui,”
E. Display, outward show (eccl. Lat.): “non venit regnum Dei cum observatione,” Vulg. Luc. 17, 20.—

Postmodern Hermeneuts suddenly decided that Ekklesia is NOT A School of the Word: Church is "a theater for holy entertainment." Or "the Church has NO other role but TO WORSHIP." That means lying, cheating and stealing church houses and spending huge sums on making them VENUES FOR ROCK AND ROLL.

"INTERPRETATION" TRIES TO DEMONIZE THOSE WHO WILL NOT CONFORM to "instrumental worship" and will not stop defending themselves against people boasting of "infiltrating and diverting."

In fact, Alexander Campbell denied that there COULD be any unity with what became the Disciples-Christians before the hand shake in 1832.  Only a few men shook hands in 1832 and the CREED written by John Smith and agreed to repudiated the later Disciples actions. Click for the FOUNDATION of possible "unity"  That basic agreement is now repudiated by the New Hermeneuts.

See a review of the Stone-Campbell Movement to see that there was NEVER any kind of unity of these groups any more than Alexander Campbell was "unioned" with the Reformed Baptists. If you read the whole context rather than using "theology" which repeats the errors of the popular writers you will see that Stone and Campbell had absolutely nothing in common. Stone didn't even consider agreement on "doctrine" as necessary for "unity." That is still the mantra but unity means that YOU affirm OUR position with what  they call "instrumental worship" at its core.  Of course, the Campbells being readers of the now-obsolete TEXT called church A School of Christ and worship as reading and musing the Word: they learned that from the Spirit OF Christ defining the Qahal, synagogue, ekklesia or Church of Christ (the Rock) in the wilderness.

Because Campbell was history-literate he would have known that "wearing the Hat of Hermes" or the Greek Logos was put down by Jesus Christ whom God made to be both Lord and Christ and TRUE LOGOS.  Hermes would define the Scribes and Pharisees whom Jesus called Hypocrites: in the Ezekiel 33 PREDESTINED WARNING these would be self-speakers, singers and instrument players.

Jesus never condemned anyone for obeying THE LAW.
The Pharisee is defined by Jesus along the following lines:

They changed the Laws of God: by teaching THEIR doctrine instead of God's their worship was VAIN.
They changed God's Word so that they COULD IGNORE the Words of God.

"seeking scriptural support for their actions through a ramified system of HERMENEUTICS. It was due to this PROGRESSIVE tendency of the Pharisees that their interpretation of the Torah CONTINUED to develop and has remained a living force in Judaism. Catholic Encyclopedia, Pharisees.

They make NEW RULES. One of them was MOUTH RELIGION which is attached to Ezekiel 33 and the singers and instrument players. While the Pharisees never stooped to bringing any form of music into the synagogue, Jesus used the performing musicians to describe them.

They make long prayers [hymns] which was for performance and not for instruction
As Scribes they wrote books and peddled them workshop to workshop.
They liked to SIT UP front in the Holy Place pew.
They loved STANDING in the synagogue while they performed.
They pretended to be Mediators The definition of a Pharisee in that world meant that they claimed some spiritual connection with the Spirit world.
And they did this so that they could EAT UP or steal the houses of widows.
They were EVANGELISTIC but made converts more evil than themselves
They were HYPOCRITES also in that they were trained in DRAMATIC PRESENTATION. Hypocrites are still ACTORS.

SCRIBES AND PHARISEES HERMENEUTICS DEFINES A HYPOCRITE

The command to the elders as Pastor-Teachers is to "teach that which has been taught." Although the musical content in romans 15 is excluded by the self-pleasure, even if one "sings" (added as an ACT about 373) the command is to "use one mind and one mouth to teach that which has been taught" defined as Scripture. Anyone who uses artistic skills of rhetoric, singing or playing instruments to ENHANCE the Word of Christ in the Prophets and Apostles is THE definition of a hypocrite.

Matthew 24:50 The lord of that servant shall come in a day when he looketh not for him, and in an hour
that he is not aware of,

Matthew 24:51 And shall cut him asunder, and appoint him his portion with the hypocrites:
        there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth.

Pind. N. 7 [20] And I expect that the story of Odysseus came to exceed his experiences, through the sweet songs of Homer, since there is a certain solemnity in his lies and winged artfulness,
        and poetic skill deceives, seducing us with stories,
        and the heart of the mass of men is blind.

Plat. Tim. 72b upon these inspired divinations; and they, indeed, themselves are named “diviners”

This paper is not for popular consumption; it is a collection of REAL TRUE meanings of interpretation or hermeneutics as the pagan PRETENSION to be able to explain the unexplainable -- for a price. The links will lead you to much of the story of HERMES who was the ANTI-Logos. Of postmodernism the latest KoolAid someone has said:

"Emperor’s new clothes or perhaps herd instinct – no one wants to appear stupid by asking what the heck it really means."

Theologians missed a most important fact about most of the Bible.
For instance after the fall from grace because of musical idolatry of a trinity at Mount Sinai Moses wrote an inverted of the Babylonian account of history which you can still read on clay tablets.

The Babylonian THESIS to be repeated in the end times when the Babylon Mother of harlots (Revelation 17) uses lusted after fruits (same as in Amos 8) as speakers, singers and instrument players. John calls them sorcerers and says that they will be cast alive into the lake of Fire.

The Christian ANTITHESIS by the Spirit OF Christ in Isaiah 30 was prophesied. The marks of God driving His enemies into "hell" will be wind, string and percussion instruments.

A Church of Christ is built upon the Prophets and the Prophecies made more certain by Jesus and left for our memory by the Apostles.  Be aware that A Church of Christ is built upon or EDUCATED by the Prophets and Apostles.

Isaiah 8:19 And when they shall say unto you,
        Seek unto them that have familiar spirits,
        and unto wizards that peep, and that mutter:
        should not a people seek unto their God? for the living to the dead?
To the law and to the testimony: [Spirit OF prophecy by Christ]
        if they speak not according to this word,
        it is because there is no light in them. Isa 8:20
