Description of what music is: A melodious sound produced by a human voice or an instrument.
What does Christ want in his church: as he has said and not us, when you have singing accompanied
by and instrument you have two kinds of music, what does the Lord want, Eph 5:19 notice, "speaking to yourselves, in Psalms,
and hymns and spiritual songs, SINGING and makling MELODY IN YOUR HEARTS TO THE LORD"
Singing is music, God wants us to worship him by singing praises to his name, he condemns adding anything else to our worship
other than what he has specified, Rev 22:18-19. In the old testament, God allowed man to do then what he does not today, David
was the man who introduced an instrument to incorporate his worship, God allowed it then. God in his new testament called
it ignorance, Acts 17:30; when we take it upon ourselves to add instruments into worship, for what ever reason we see fit,
we change God's word, Rom 1:25 Christ tells us through his inspiration to Paul what kind of music is pleasing to him. 2 Tim
3:14-17
