A Non-Issue?

Instrumental music is a "non-issue." It is? Why are people talking about it so much? Oh...I remember...some churches have started introducing it into their worship assemblies. Ironically, the folks introducing it are the ones who refer to it as a "non-issue." Shame on them for making a "non-issue" a very lively one.

It's actually been a lively issue for some time. The way people were desensitized to the use of instrumental music in worship assemblies was to talk about it being a "non-issue" for years before they ever made it one. Of course, they wanted full fellowship with those who were already using it, which is how the "non-issue" thing reappeared after nearly a century of not being heard.

Alas! As long as people keep on making it an issue by introducing it into congregations where it used to be abhorred, it will continue to be one of the "non-issue" issues.
