One of Dan Scott's reocurring themes this year has been that people must find transformation at church.

If they are just coming to hear good music, drink coffee in the cafe, hear sermons on positive thinking, then they might as well spend Sunday at the mall.

Sadly too many treat church as some kind of spiritual shopping mall. They only want a "specialty store" that fits within their economy of what comprises a walk with God. In other words, they are defining what God should be telling them and giving them instead of simply coming to the marketplace of the Lord for whatever He has for that day.

It is absurd to say Hillsong has nothing to do with the Cross. I prefer their music to almost anything I have heard in an Apostolic Church.

No cross? Take the challenge of listening to this song.

Someone is passing along lies it would seem if they say Hillsong does not sing about the cross.

Thank you, thank you, and thank you. These threads really tire me out and I am through with them. It is retarded to think that the UPC and apostolics have a stranglehold on anointed music. That the pentecostal hymnbook is the ONLY way. Is that guy an idiot to ask for no Blood songs? Yes!!! Does that mean Hillsong and modern music can't be anointed, NOOOOOOO!!! I really get tired of some of you and these stoopid statements.
This morning we had an ole' fashioned pentecostal breakthrough and again the Spirit took over and it was wonderful....the song that was playing while it blew open???? Matt Redman's "Blessed Be Your Name" some folks took the lyric to heart, just like Job...You give and take away, my heart will choose to say, blessed be Your Name

Lies that Hillsong has nothing to do with the blood of Jesus and his cross will do nothing to help the one who makes them up.

I would post the video but it looks like YouTube pulled it. They were looking for a new church and Peggy was trying to convince Hank to attend a new mega-church and listing all their programs and benefits. Hank goes "Mmmmm.... It sounds no different than going to the mall and thinking about Jesus" -to paraphrase.
