***That specific quote was in regard to the use of any type of musical instrument in the worship of God.***
the context has to do with mechanical instruments. The New testament authorizes a instrument
(Ephesians 5:19) "Speaking to yourselves in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing and making melody in your heart to the Lord."
there is a difference between an aid and a addition.I would guess from you questions and other posts that I have read. You are smart enough to understand the difference.

there is a difference between an aid and a addition.I would guess from you questions and other posts that I have read. You are smart enough to understand the difference.Since a piano or an organ is usually used as an "aid" to keep everyone in key and in tempo, then that I suppose would be kosher? And since a drum set is usually used for the purpose of keeping everyone on beat and up to speed, then I suppose that would be an "aid" and kosher too?
So if I can't make any vocal sounds because I am a mute, are you going to prohibit me from making melody in my heart by playing a lute or other stringed instrument? Would your "one true" church be engaged in false doctrine if it accomodated the worship needs of mutes?
