Singing is an important part of worship and fellowship. The document discusses reasons why Christians should sing based on examples from the New Testament. Singing is modeled by Paul and Silas in prison and by Jesus and his disciples after the Last Supper. Several verses encourage singing praise with spirit and mind and being cheerful through song. Singing allows Christians to speak, teach and admonish one another. The overall message is that believers should sing because Scripture tells us to sing praise to God.

Synopsis: Why do we sing? The New Testament speaks of singing with
mind and spirit; speaking, teaching, and admonishing one another. We
sing because He has told us to sing.
