This is not the worship and praise of God our creator and Christ the Son of God, who wrote the Bible including the book of Psalms specifically for His Praise and worship.

How many other books of the Bible do you turn into human entertainment and emotional persuasion and seduction???

Quote;

What other book of the Bible do you discard to take up the works and words of human authors?

That's the point here! God wrote HIS book of ordained praise and you hymn singers forsake God's Bible to entertain yourself with the music and lyrics you prefer over God's praise. Which subsequently you arrogantly "force" upon the Lord to accept as worship???

Talk about using human senses emotions and the arrogance of supplanting uninspired words in place of what God has ordained. Why there is idolatry and blasphemy right there.

The Word of God is the very basis of Christian life and Christian church. It is God's instructions for HIS disciples. God provides the Holy Spirit to guide HIS people in wisdom and in truth in the reading of Scripture. Since the beginning of time and creation God's children have stood upon the pillar that is the doctrines and laws of God in the Bible. Remove this supporting structure and the church will fall.
Hymn singers have removed Scripture God's Book of Praise.

in case you had not noticed wrote:
God used fallible human beings to write the Psalms, your entire premise is wrong.
Maybe you should read the Psalms.

Is this your way of casting doubts on the Bible being the Word of God???

3. Nowhere Scripture indicates that Psalms constitute the exclusive praise ordained of God
4. Valid hymns derived from Scriptural doctrinal content

Who "validates" these hymns?
The Book of Psalms was recorded by God for HIS praise and worship. WHEN did you last use this book written by God for "HIS" purposes? - Which other books do you relegate to the dustbin?

If you prefer human scripture interpretation to God's Holy Word then that's up to you.

I reiterate:
Choir singing like hymn singing is just another notch on the journey to Liberalism.
Hymn's are used to separate people from the Bible. The book which God wrote includes HIS ordained praise which is the Psalms.

By using human contrived hymns you reject God's Holy Word and the churches do not use the praise of God recorded in the Bible.

No where in the Bible are sinners instructed to manufacture their own version of the Bible nor their own version of praise.

Hymn Singer wrote:
1. An assumption
2. Who says?
3. True, but not good enough to support your case.
4. Fallacious argument.
5. More fallacious reasoning. The logical conclusion you come to is that Psalm singing is a cure all for error and that Psalm singing churches never err! Plain silly!

Hymn Singer wrote:
The exegesis of exclusive-psalm-singers is not acceptable at Colossians 3:16 and Ephesians 5:19. If these verses are referring to more than the songs of the book of Psalms, then it is acceptable for Christians to sing more than the songs from Psalms. Exclusive-psalm-singers must argue, then, that the words "psalms, hymns, and spiritual songs" in these verses all apply to the Psalms and can be applied to nothing but the Psalms

It is also fact that GOD recorded the Book of Psalms for the exclusive use of His worship and praise.

GOD went to the trouble of writing a book - the Bible - to teach mankind how to serve and worship Him.

If the Hymn singers want to write their own book of praise - Do they stop at this? Or does that mentality include rewriting the entire Bible like the Liberals do?

So let me get this right wrote:
Sinners were not used to write the Psalms, got it.

For example
2Peter 1:20 Knowing this first, that no prophecy of the scripture is of any private interpretation. 21 For the prophecy came not in old time by the will of man: but holy men of God spake as they were moved by the Holy Ghost.

And
2Tim 3:16 All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness:

That's why they dump the Book of Psalms which God wrote for praise and worship.

To replace God's praise with the work of the sinner is purely the sinner expressing the desire for entertainment instead of worship for God.

Entertainment is the sinners sinful preference to the ordained Word of God, the Book of Psalms. We can see this every Sunday when the Liberals and those perhaps of a more Biblical persuasion put aside the inspired Word the Bible to pick up the hymns lyrics and melodies of sinners and expect God to accept the version their evil hearts prefer.

Jesus said, "These are the words which I spake unto you, while I was yet with you, that all things must be fulfilled, which were written in the law of Moses, and in the prophets, and in the psalms, concerning me."
By stating that the OT contained much information about Himself in Laws Prophets and Psalms Christ demonstrated that the OT story is about Him. By rejecting the OT in so many ways the church rejects Christ and ultimately they only get half the story.

with my song will I praise him

"with my song"

This is the first part of the translation:-
"properly a part of; hence (prepositionally), from or out of in many senses: - above, after, among, at, because of, by (reason of), from (among), in, X neither, X nor, (out) of, over, since, X then, through, X whether, with."

This is the second part:-
"The second form being feminine; from H7891; a song; abstractly singing: - musical (-ick), X sing (-er, -ing), song."

The Protestant Reformers were not even mentally deranged and psychotic enough to believe the only acceptable worship music is the psalms and not hymns. Only someone who is mentally deranged and psychotic believes that the only acceptable worship music is he psalms and not hymns.

A modern Liberal "entertainment" church.

Of course this was all started with hymn singing replacing the Word of God - Psalms.

Hymn singing the pandering to the human emotion instead of the worship of God leads to the abandonment of Scripture and ultimately to Liberalism where human entertainment is the idol of their worship.

My father never did any exercise in his life. He spent four years as a German POW. And enjoyed probably too much booze in his younger days. He had a heart attack at age 59.

I on the other hand was a keep fit fanatic who used to run six miles a day to keep fit. Lived in a time when the health professionals told us to keep fit to have a healthy heart. Guess what = I had a heart attack when I was 59.
