Re: Liturgical Worship - Do you like it?

That stuff is too close to Catholicism for me.

Re: Liturgical Worship - Do you like it?

In our church we have a liturgy but not a 'high' one. Most of our music is comtemporary along with hymns but a definite pattern is present. Kind of nice not to worry about what comes next......

Even many of our Pentecostal services are structured worship and honestly...I hate it. I think we need to make time to just wait on God to move instead of rushing through our program

  3. Every sinner must repent of their sins.
  4. That Jesus name baptism is the only biblical mode of water baptism.
  5. That the Holy Ghost is for today and is received by faith with the initial evidence of speaking in tongues.
  6. The saint will go on to strive to live a holy life, pleasing to God.

I have very mixed feelings on this.

I find aspects of the formality to be reverent and respectful of God and the place of assembly. For example reciting (and praying) the Lords Prayer in unison is generally a very sacred and moving thing to me. As is confessing our sins, together, out loud... a deliberate and specific admission of our need followed by the reassurance that the payment was made for once and for all.

I think the idea that a planned and structured service is by definition contrary to the anointing and God's will is erroneous.

I am a firm believer in the Old Paths

Re: Liturgical Worship - Do you like it?

Can people honestly picture the early church running a liturgical service? Incense, ominous, funeral-like hymns?

That is true, but there must be order as well.
