New Song

Mike God has blessed me with being a musician. I play banjo. Been playing for 40 years. I have noticed that there are 7 notes of music. Including sharps and flats there are 12 steps in any musical scale. In order to make a chord, you note step 1, step 3, and step 5, in any key and you have a chord. I started seeing that Gods truth’s form a chord spiritually speaking. The Church (songs- lies) are (spiritually) in discord, not harmonizing with each false doctrine. The truths (true doctrines) of Gods word form a perfect harmonizing chord. This is how Gods elect sing a new song. No man can learn this song but the 144,000. Psa 33:3 Sing unto him a new song; play skilfully with a loud noise.
Psa 40:3 And he hath put a new song in my mouth, [ even] praise unto our God: many shall see [ it], and fear, and shall trust in the LORD.
Psa 96:1 O sing unto the LORD a new song: sing unto the LORD, all the earth.
Psa 98:1 [[ A Psalm.]] O sing unto the LORD a new song; for he hath done marvellous things: his right hand, and his holy arm, hath gotten him the victory.
Psa 144:9 I will sing a new song unto thee, O God: upon a psaltery [ and] an instrument of ten strings will I sing praises unto thee.
Psa 149:1 Praise ye the LORD. Sing unto the LORD a new song, [ and] his praise in the congregation of saints.
Isa 42:10 Sing unto the LORD a new song, [ and] his praise from the end of the earth, ye that go down to the sea, and all that is therein; the isles, and the inhabitants thereof.
Rev 5:9 And they sung a new song, saying, Thou art worthy to take the book, and to open the seals thereof: for thou wast slain, and hast redeemed us to God by thy blood out of every kindred, and tongue, and people, and nation;
Rev 14:3 And they sung as it were a new song before the throne, and before the four beasts, and the elders: and no man could learn that song but the hundred [ and] forty [ and] four thousand, which were redeemed from the earth. I hadn’t seen this on your site, and this has been on my mind for a while, so I thought I would email. I would sure welcome any comments you have! R____
Hi R____,
I remember being told about these numbers in Ambassador College, but of course they never saw what you have pointed out here about how lies are discordant and truths harmonize.
Everyone who comes to see who God really is, as opposed to the monster they were told He was, always comments on the fact that the Truth just makes much more sense (harmonizes with the concept of a loving Father). Of course this harmony only increases as you look into God’s Word in greater detail and discover that every doctrine in the church is ‘discordant’ (full of contradictions and outright lies).
Isa 3:1 For, behold, the Lord, the LORD of hosts, doth take away from Jerusalem and from Judah the stay and the staff, the whole stay of bread, and the whole stay of water,
I am utterly devoid of any technical understanding of music, so I hope I have gotten the drift of what you are saying here. Please let me know if I have missed something.
Is not the ‘new song’ the same thing as harmony? The old man never having known harmony?
In reading back over the scriptures you quote here, the significance of the fact that only the 144,000 can sing this new harmonious song is just beginning to sink in. I have noticed for some time that whenever you read of “harpers harping on their harps” you are reading of the 144,000. God certainly would not tolerate a discordant ‘harper.’
Thanks for bringing this to my attention
Mike
