The regulative principle of worship of the historic Reformed faith states that God is to be worshiped only in the ways appointed in His Word. Every act of public worship not positively enjoined by Him is thereby forbidden. Christ and His inspired Apostles ordained the worship of the New Dispensation without the accompaniment of musical instruments, enjoining only the singing with the voice of “psalms, hymns, and spiritual songs,” just as had been done in the synagogues of the Old Dispensation. Hence, argues the author of this book, such instruments cannot be introduced without a corruption of Christian worship and defection from Reformed principles.
