In the Old Testament people were under the old law. They had burnt offerings (Genesis 8:20) and all sorts of other laws that were to be fulfilled in order to be fulfilling the word of God. Today we live under the new law. The New Testament. The old law was nailed to the cross Colossians 2:14 We are to sing and make melody in our heart, not from a instrument. In the book of Matthew chapter 26 verse 30 it speaks of the disciples singing a hymn, not coming together to play songs or instruments. Paul wrote in 1Corinthians 11:1 "Imitate me ,just as I also imitate Christ. == == The purpose of Christian Music is to praise the Lord. Here is one of many scriptures referring to a musical instrument. Praise the Lord with harp: sing unto him with the psaltery and an instrument of ten strings. Sing unto him a new song; play skilfully with a loud noise. Psalm 33:2-3 Many instruments were used in worship in the temple in Jerusalem by the Jews along with singers. Various instruments are mentioned in the final Psalm,150: (Psalm 150:1-6) 150 Praise Jah, YOU people! Praise God in his holy place. Praise him in the expanse of his strength. 2 Praise him for his works of mightiness. Praise him according to the abundance of his greatness. 3 Praise him with the blowing of the horn. Praise him with the stringed instrument and the harp. 4 Praise him with the tambourine and the circle dance. Praise him with strings and the pipe. 5 Praise him with the cymbals of melodious sound. Praise him with the clashing cymbals. 6 Every breathing thing-let it praise Jah. Praise Jah, YOU people! Later instrumental music is certainly implied for Christians at Eph 5:18,19 (Ephesians 5:18-20) 18 ..., but keep getting filled with spirit, 19 speaking to yourselves with psalms and praises to God and spiritual songs, singing and accompanying yourselves with music in YOUR hearts to Jehovah, 20 in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ giving thanks . . . Thus Musical Instruments had a place in both Christian and pre-Christian worship.

What does articulation mean in musical terms?

The articulation marks in a musical score denotes that how notes should be played. They differ according to the instruments mostly with families they belong to. 'Legato' (smoothly), 'staccato' (short and detached) and 'tenuto' (hold for the full not value) are some of common articulations used in most instruments. 'Marcato' (marked) and 'martellato' (hammered) are frequent articulations among percussion instruments. 'Arco' (with the bow), 'pizzicato' (plucked) and 'con legno' (with wooden part of bow) are playing techniques exclusively for instruments in the string family. A popular technique for prepared tongue position in woodwind section is to indicate a syllable that indicates the same tongue placement.

What cockpit instrument will indicate jet engine failure?

If one of the engines fails, numerous instruments will indicate a severe irregularity. Most aircraft will have an auditory "chime" upon engine failure. Most pilots will first notice that a bright "master caution" light is illuminated, a light that is rarely illuminated and therefore attention-grabbing. Another obvious indication is that the N1 gauge, measuring the temperature of air entering the gas generator, will indicate a rapidly dropping temperature on the failed engine, inconsistent with temperature(s) on the other engine(s). In addition, pneumatic systems that provide high-pressure bleed air for aircraft pressurization and heating will indicate a failure relative to the failed engine, as well as the respective electrical generation that the failed engine will no longer be providing. Moreover, since most monitoring instruments have gauges for all engines, an inconsistency in instruments between the failed engine and the functional engine(s) itself will indicate some sort of failure. In short, on most aircraft, a failed engine will be overwhelmingly evident to a trained pilot through virtually any system's monitoring instruments.
