Do you believe in Pentecostal Shouting?

Dancing is commanded - uncontrolled jerking is never commanded

The High Priest shook and jerked it seems the sheaf at firstfruits which is Pentecost do you suppose if the High Priest did that in type did it happen in reality on Pentecost? They SAW something Acts 2:33.

Do you believe in what the old timers called "shouting". I am talking about where the power of God falls in a service and folks start cutting a jig, or screaming? I am not talking about the Charismatic 2-step we see nowadays. But where one gets "lost" in the holy ghost. It used to be called "getting a blessing".

Uhhh, yeah. It's called expressive praise, hello people.

I challenge you on that statement Elder

he actually agreed that the dance of David was not our type of shouting... go back and read brother.. again I challenge you to explain where he tore up my argument.

Here's how i see it:

Jhn 4:23 But the hour cometh, and now is, when the true worshippers shall worship the Father in spirit and in truth: for the Father seeketh such to worship him.
Jhn 4:24 God [is] a Spirit: and they that worship him must worship [him] in spirit and in truth.

I believe there is true worship and false worship. Some are truthfully worshiping God, and others are putting on a show!

Mat 15:8 This people draweth nigh unto me with their mouth, and honoureth me with [their] lips; but their heart is far from me.
Mat 15:9 But in vain they do worship me, teaching [for] doctrines the commandments of men.

I believe we worship God in the following ways:

• Prayer
• Singing
• Dancing
• Praise
• Giving
• Preaching
• Sacraments (e.g. communion)

RICO --- its not the instructions.. its the meaning of the word dance.. and it has nothing that resemebles SHOUTING OR JERKING... When David danced it was not SHOUTING ..... no Jewish dancing looks like shouting...

First of all there were no drums and David would have needed a good Apostolic BEAT to SHOUT...

Of course it was very non-Pentecostal, they didn't have the HG silly.

Good post Rico.

Does the NT support shouting in church?
Does the NT give us any examples of Pentecostal Shouting?
Does the NT give more instruction for church order or for pandemonium?

Does the NT prohibit expressive praise such as shouting? If so, please share the diluted doctrine so that we can blow it out of the proverbial saddle.

I will never understand how the Pentecostals can make any more out of that experience then what actually happened

If you have the Holy Ghost, you would understand it.
