Silence of the Scriptures - Session 4

Dr. Phil Sanders discusses using instruments in worship, stating that instrumental music is not used in the New Testament and that God intentionally left it out. The focus is on the importance of understanding the Bible's teachings on worship and not adding to them with personal preferences or opinions. Dr. Sanders differentiates between expedients that aid worship (like songbooks) and additions that change the instruction (like instruments). He argues that using instruments is not merely an aid but a form of worship itself, which is not commanded in the New Testament.
