303: Did the New Testament Church have a world headquarters?
It is not an institution where every member has voting rights as to what it does and what it does not do. Quite to the contrary, it is a monarchy. It is a divine monarchy. Jesus Christ is the head or king. The Bible teaches in Ephesians 1:22-23, that God "gave him to be the head over all things to the church. Which is his body, the fullness of him that filleth all in all". He is the one and only lawgiver.

307: Does God Approve Instrumental Music in church?
... Similarly, Ephesians 5:19 instructs, "speaking to yourselves -in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing and making melody in your heart to the Lord . . ." Other specific instruction, or examples, are recorded in Acts 16:25, Romans 15:9, Heb. 2:12, I Cor. 14:15, and James 5:13.

But, one meaning of "sack" is obscure in the South where "poke" is preferred.

Most of these lexicons show "psallo" to mean, "to sing a hymn", "to celebrate the praises of God in song", or "to chant". In ... ...

309: The early use of "nomina sacra" indicates a canon was recognized
While Christians eventually abandoned the practice of nomina sacra altogether, the Jews continue the practice by writing the word God in English as G-D where a dash is substituted for the letter O.
