And? They also slit the throat of live animals and sprinkled their blood in the tabernacle.
And killed people for working on Saturday.
And and and. This could go on for several hundred pages.

NOT!
I dance with my daughter like this all the time. She loves it! And even dresses up for it!
And when she grows up I'm certain I would give about anything to relive those moments.
Some dancing is OK IMO

We used to square dance as hardcore conservative Mennonites. Seemed quite harmless to me and still does.
I think alot of folks have images of smoky bars and alcohol or gyrating pelvises at a rock concert, but it need not be that way.
I think Jesus danced, don't you?
Your thoughts?
P.S. As a side topic, do you think Jesus was pretty big on Shockamoo during worship services?

Re: Dancing: Ever acceptable outside Shockamoo?
I like that stuff Prax! As I said visions of immodest gyrations have clouded many folks' thoughts on "dancing". That's too bad.

Re: Dancing: Ever acceptable outside Shockamoo?
I have "danced" on stage a bit... even danced with a girl in a street show at Disneyland a few years back.
My girls all danced in a recent parade while we blasted out Chim-Chimney from Mary Poppins!

Re: Dancing: Ever acceptable outside Shockamoo?
I believe one can dance in the spriit. I'm actually sure I've done so before. I was not in a trance (that doesn't mean no one ever is) and I was able to stop when I wanted to stop. It reminded me of singing/speaking in tongues. Here's the thing, I had to begin the dance so some of it had to be just me and not all in the spirit.

Re: Dancing: Ever acceptable outside Shockamoo?
So, when the Bible tells us to praise the Lord with the timbrel and dance in Psalm 150:4, and to praise His Name in the dance in Psalm 149:3, and that there is a time to dance in Ecclesiastes 3:4 it is in reference to Jewish dancing like in this video? And when we read about Miriam grabbing a tambourine and leading the women in dancing in Exodus 15:20-21 it is like the dancing in this video? And when we read about David dancing before the Lord with all his might in 2 Samuel 6:14 it is like the Jewish dancing in this video?
In the New Testament we are told to worship the Lord with Psalms, and hymns, etc so we would expect to see the same kind of instruments and the same kind of dancing in the NT church that it speaks about in Psalms?

Re: Dancing: Ever acceptable outside Shockamoo?
Does dancing "in the Spirit" look different when it is to the beat of a drum (like the Pentecostals who are called "drum jumpers") than it does if it is done with blue grass or with rock or with rap or whatever?
Ever been in an Apostolic/Pentecostal mosh pit?
