Trenton Sailor Has
Impressive Record
ABOARD THE USS MELVIN
IN THE NORTH ATLANTIC—
Japan’s surrender terminated al¬
most continuous fighting in vir¬
tually every major naval en¬
gagement in the Pacific during
the last 18 months of the war
for Claude L. Michaels, 22, sea¬
man first class, USNR, son of
Mr. and Mrs. Arthur C. Michaels
of Trenton.
Michaels, who first saw action
from the decks of this 21-ton
destroyer, took part in the seizure
of the vitally important stepping
stone bases to Japan—Saipan,
Guam, Tinian, Leyte, Luzon, Iwo
Jima and Okinawa. During those
operations, his ship destroyed a
Japanese transport off Saipan
and “splashed" six planes while
repelling numerous Kamikaze
attacks off Iwo Jima and Oki¬
nawa. *
His battle record also shows
participation in the historic bat¬
tle for Leyte Gulf, one of Ameri¬
ca’s greatest naval victories. On
that momentous occasion, his
destroyer executed an unsup¬
ported night torpedo run on a
large Jap task force in Surigao
strait and assisted in sinking
an enemy battleship and a de-

In addition, he witnessed the
naval blockade of Japan which

The Churches of Christ Salute You
ROMANS 16:16
With
Sound Doctrine
INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC IN THE
WORSHIP
On this subject, as well as all
others regarding Christian wor¬
ship, the New Testament is the
real and final authority. It, when
followed, will direct aright. Unity
is in Christ and His word. When
the Bible is set aside, the doors
of human speculation are opened
wide and confusion reigns. We
propose, there, to give the New
Testament teaching on church
music, and to follow that with
quotations from the repest of
Bible scholars—not that such
scholars make authority, but in
that they corroborate the Scrip¬
tural evidence.
“Faith comes by hearing, and
hearing by the word of God”
(Rom. 10:17). Again, “Faith is
the substance of things hoped
for, the evidence of things not
seen” (Heb. 11:1). Faith then,
while depending on desire, yet
is the child of evidence or dem¬
onstration. A thing is said: it is
rejected or accepted according to
the supporting evidence. Thus,
one can have saving, Biblical,
extent that faith is founded
extent that that faith is founded
on God’s evidence, the Bible.
Without that evidence, or word,
there is no faith. God must have
spoken before we can believe
what He says. The New Testa¬
ment does say sing, but not one
time does it instruct to use the
instrument in church music. One
can believe, or have faith, in
what God said but not in what
he did not say. Suppose a person
does not respect the silence of
the New Testament. He is pre-
sumptious. Has he sinned? Yes!
Why? He used the instrument
when God said sing; thus, could
not have done it “by faith.”
“Whatsoever is not of faith is
sin” (Rom. 14:23).
Following are statements from
some of the most illustrious of
Biblical scholars. Those are of¬
fered for our consideration:
“Musical instruments in cele¬
brating the praises of God would
be no more suitable than the
burning of incense, the lighting
up of lamp, and the restoration
of the other shadows of the
law.”—John Calvin, one of the
originators of Presbyterianism in
commentary on 33 Psalm.
“I have no objection to the
organ in our chapel provided it
is neither seen nor heard.”—
John Wesley, Methodist.
In his comment on Amos 6 5
Adam Clarke says: “I believe that
David was not authorized by the
Lord to introduce that multitude
of musical instruments into the
Divine worship of which we read;
and I am satisfied that his con¬
duct in this respect is most sol¬
emnly reprehended by this pro¬
phet; and I further believe that
the use of such instruments of
music, in the Christian church,
is without the sanction and a-
gainst the will of God; that they
are subversive of the spirit of
true devotion and that they are
sinful. If there was a woe to them
who invented instruments of
music, as David did under the
law, is there no woe, no curse
to them who invent them, and
introduce them into the worship
of God in the Christian church?
I am an old man and an old
minister! and I here declare that
I never knew them productive
of any good in the worship of
God; and have reason to believe
that they were productive of
much evil. Music, as a science, I
esteem and admire: but instru¬
ments of music in the house of
I abominate and abhor. This
is the abuse of music; and here
register my protest against ail
such corruptions in the worship
the author of Christianity” ...
