No. That is not singing, there is a difference between singing and
vocalizing.

Say what? If a congregation just stood and repeated the words of a hymn in
the same way that someone would quote a poem or a preacher would quote a
psalm in his sermon, that would be wrong?
Paul Robson:
What about everyone else BTW ?
If God is concerned about whether or not you in the CoC use music to
support your hymns, how does this affect the denominations that use
music (which I think would be virtually all of them in the UK in some way
or another). Does he ignore them, or take less notice of them, or is it
marked down against them in some way ? Is it a sin ? (as you would
be not following the word of the LORD ! AMEN :) )
If he forgives them (because he is endlessly forgiving ?) do they have to
repent at all ? If it is a sin with no 'negative effect', are there other
sins in
this category ?
