On another thread, Rev. Winzer responded to a line of discussion on Psalmody:
Now - I think his point is that the practice of the modes of worship are clearly delineated as a Scriptural mandate, therefore there is no "mixed modes" of worship. No singing of prayers, no reading of songs, etc...
I am interested in understanding the rationale and understanding the Scriptural support for this position.
Also:
Rev. Winzer - my sincerest apologies if I have mis-stated your position and I would also like to apologize and sincerely repent if I have caused you to believe that I hold anything but the deepest respect for you - your contributions to the board are excellent and I have learned much from your responses.
The point is, good fellow, that you can't read, pray AND sing the Psalms all in one motion, as is clear from the very manner in which you state the case. The Bible clearly distinguishes these actions as modes of worship. The sooner you concede the obvious, the sooner this discussion can proceed apace.
