    Position papers are helpful in addressing those sort of issues.

    But any decent confession will be supported by Scripture. And does your comment that God will not bless the hearing and singing of extra-Scriptural songs or hearing the words of the minister that are not verbatim from the Scriptures? I think not.

    Perhaps there are occasions when they can be read, but the liturgy is best served with the proclamation of the Word.

    Mostly agree. But cutting out an announcement or a joke in the sermon to make room for the Apostles Creed seems a small price to pay to remind folks of historic faith that, frankly, is too often carved into bite-size morsels that do little justice to the sweep of God's dealings with men and the deep truth of redemption.

    I was meaning it more in the lie of the Spirit taking the scriptures and saving and impacting persons with them, as the bible only was inspired by Him.
