Nine Lines of Argument in Favor of the Regulative Principle of Worship, T. David Gordon
Infant Baptism and the Regulative Principle of Worship, Fred Malone Warning: While this is a fine article overall, Malone would have done well to employ the Biblical term "ordinances" rather than the word "sacrament" for baptism and the Lord's Supper.
A Careful Baptist Statement of the Regulative Principle of Worship and its Practical Outworking Note: The fact that this is a well-written statement does not constitute an endorsement of Calvinism or of any type of church other than an unaffiliated and separatist Baptist congregation.
The Regulative Principle of Worship and Christmas, Brian Schwertley Warning: Schwertley is a Presbyterian who is for exclusive psalmody and against instrumental music, positions not mandated in Scripture. Also, the Lord's Day is not the Christian Sabbath, contra Schwertley. Furthermore, churches have the liberty to meet on any day of the year and to preach on any Biblical topic on any day of the year, so they can preach on the incarnation on December 25. With these important caveats, Schwertley's article makes many points well worthy of consideration.
