What does CENI mean in Religion?

Command, Example, and Necessary Inference

CENI is a term used by Christian churches who base their doctrine solely on the Bible, rather than on their opinions of man's interpretation of the Bible. CENI stands for Command (a direct command from God or Jesus), Example ( an example shown or described by Jesus, God, or the apostles, such as the first century church meeting on the first day of the week), and Necessary Inference, where the intent of God or Jesus is inferred from the context, such as the church meeting on the first day of the week RATHER than on the sabbath day, or the use of acappella music, since singing is commanded in the New Testament, but the use of instruments in worship is not.
