“Whistle A Happy Tune”

     Do you think the music at the beginning of the videos is "instrumental music"?

Sincerely,
Harmony

Dear Harmony,

Yes, we do.  The Daily Cup video music is definitely instrumental music (pretty sure it is whistling and ukulele), but it isn’t used as part of worship, and it isn’t religious music.  The Bible has no problem with the use of instruments, but when we are commanded to sing psalms, hymns, and spiritual songs to God, we must fulfill that command by singing only (which means no instruments).  See “Instrumental To Worship” for further details.  The introduction to our video series isn’t an attempt to fulfill that command or be a form of worship.
