I've seen more indecency with wild, out of control, flailing "dancing in the Spirit" than cherographed movements. No one has to stand on guard for the hiked up skirt over the head from a woman sprawled out all over the floor ready to cover her up when it comes to cherographed movements. Not to mention the shaking and the bobbling and bouncing of body parts as women jump and twirl and convulse.

I don't understand the mentality that unless something is bizarre and spooky, it's not of God. Since when did Jesus become a boogeyman?

Yeah sure, and you probably think Abba's Fernando is a classic.

"We did not wear uniforms. The lady workers dressed in the current fashions of the day, ...silks...satins...jewels or whatever they happened to possess. They were very smartly turned out, so that they made an impressive appearance on the streets where a large part of our work was conducted in the early years.

"It was not until long after, when former Holiness preachers had become part of us, that strict plainness of dress began to be taught.

"Although Entire Sanctification was preached at the beginning of the Movement, it was from a Wesleyan viewpoint, and had in it very little of the later Holiness Movement characteristics. Nothing was ever said about apparel, for everyone was so taken up with the Lord that mode of dress seemingly never occurred to any of us."

Sometimes I just don't get you. At times your post are well reasoned. At other times you defend a concept such you are doing now that defies reasoning. Talk about hypocrisy? Where have I judged anyone? If anyone is despising someone for not measuring up to standards it is you, not me. Maybe you are mixing me up with someone else.
Or maybe you did not like that I said, the juking and jiving done in Pentecostal services is emotion not really God moving on a person. By the way I never said it was wrong, just that it was emotional. But then is that not what worship to God is? Our expression to God of our feeling so good about what God has done that we juke and jive, and run around the church.
Do you even assemble with anyone on a regular basis anymore? Just wondering.

Quote:
Not that it should make a difference, but yes, I do assemble on a regular basis with other believers. As a matter of fact, I play the bass guitar on our worship team, for a new group starting out, that is affiliated with Global.
Anyway, Jewish folk dancing is not what's going on in the charismaniac movement. Next there will be processions replete with funny clothes and banners... oh, wait...

And after that? Probably this:

What does it matter what kind of dance is going on in other churches? As long as it is not immoral. Scripture does not define what the dancing looks like, it only says it is to be praise to God. As far as that goes nowhere is scripture is dancing sin.

How did they dance in the Bible?

How did the children of Israel's dancing differ from Gentiles?

What is the Bible definition of immoral dancing?

How did Kevin Bacon straighten all this out back in 1984?

that's a revealing Q; David dancing naked was moral, but the Exodus children getting up to dance was not.
