I think though that there is a segment of people who would consider this a move of God. I have heard many say, "man we had good church tonight" and they are right, it was good church compared to what they were used to but that doesn't mean God was moving because of all the dancing and jumping.
It is a style of church. Just like 30 years ago everyone was into southern gospel and before that people loved the old hymns.
Personally, I feel that self-control should be expected in church. If the church you goes to dances and runs the ailes then you can do that but if folks are more serious at another church then it is best to respect the culture of the church.
About a year ago we had a young evangelist show up at our church and he wanted to show us how to have a move of God. We hadn't hit the second word in the song and he was shouting and spinning all over the front of the church. Well, he then said that we were a dead church and that we didn't have the holy ghost because we didn't join with him in his antics.
Again, nothing wrong with having church that way but to think it is a move of God and spontaneous is reaching just a little.
LOL...not everybody was into southern gospel 3o years ago. Some have been having this kind of church for generations now ...and I'm certainly not saying that everybody who does everything demonstrative is right all the time. What I am saying is that I don't think that you should look at everybody who worships exuberantly and cast a negative blanket statement.
