1 Cor. 11:26
• [26] For as often as ye eat this bread, and drink this cup, ye do shew the Lord's death till he come.• HOW OFTEN?
![Page 10: Singing In Worship](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062315/56816077550346895dcfa09a/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)

3. Implication (Necessary inference)
• Gen. 13:1• [1] And Abram went up out of
Egypt, he, and his wife, and all that he had, and Lot with him, into the south.
![Page 13: Singing In Worship](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062315/56816077550346895dcfa09a/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
13
• No where is it stated that Lot went down into Egypt with Abraham – but since he left Egypt with him, it is implied that he had to go with him into Egypt
![Page 14: Singing In Worship](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062315/56816077550346895dcfa09a/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)

1 Tim. 3:2
• [2] A bishop then must be blameless, the husband of one wife, vigilant, sober, of good behaviour, given to hospitality, apt to teach;• Husband of one wife – implies an
elder must be a man
![Page 15: Singing In Worship](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062315/56816077550346895dcfa09a/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
15Note difference in implication and assumption
• Assumption – assuming something to be true; supposing • Acts 16:15 “And when she was baptized,
and her household, she besought us, saying, If ye have judged me to be faithful to the Lord, come into my house, and abide there. And she constrained us.”
![Page 16: Singing In Worship](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062315/56816077550346895dcfa09a/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
16
• Some assume that her “household” included small children• Does the verse imply this – NO
![Page 17: Singing In Worship](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062315/56816077550346895dcfa09a/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)

![Page 18: Singing In Worship](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062315/56816077550346895dcfa09a/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)

• Many say that the N.T. does not expressly say we cannot use a mechanical instrument like a piano in our worship
![Page 19: Singing In Worship](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062315/56816077550346895dcfa09a/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
19Noah and gopher wood – an example of silence
• Gen. 6:14• [14] Make thee an ark of gopher
wood; rooms shalt thou make in the ark, and shalt pitch it within and without with pitch.
![Page 20: Singing In Worship](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062315/56816077550346895dcfa09a/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
20
• The book of Genesis does not say one word about not using other types of wood - HOWEVER, we know they were excluded because God told Noah to use gopher wood!
![Page 21: Singing In Worship](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062315/56816077550346895dcfa09a/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
