This is a prime picture at how some pentecostal just go stupid in worship. I mean stupid too because I seriously doubt that if the singer sang that with a lower voice and not screaming that people wouldn't be rolling around and going stupid. It is entertaining....gymnastics for Jesus is about all that I can call this. Not sure it is real worship anymore than I know that it is fake because I really don't know the hearts of the people. I think it is hilarious when the guy swinging the coat almost smacks a guy in the face that is sitting down only to then throw it and it hit the singer in the head. Unfortunately I have been in services like these and they are more folly than Holy, IMO.

Man the only thing that I could really understand the singer say is "IT WILL BE MINE!" and I am fluent in 'Country Grammar'. I took it all my life and I have a Master's Degree is 'Country Grammar' with a minor in 'Hick Talk'.

I wasn't sure if the singing was in English or in some other language.
This reminds me of a funny story that TL Craft tells.
A 12 year old trouble maker in the church came up to the alter and got the Holy Ghost one Sunday night. He wanted to be baptized right away, so Bro. Craft motioned to one of the assistant pastors to take the kid in back to change clothes, etc. The kid changed clothes real fast while the assistant was taking his time.
The kid leaves the room by himself goes over to the baptistery and does a cannon ball into the water. He immediately does a handstand where only his feet could be seen sticking out of the water.
Bro. Craft turns around when people started pointing and thought the kid was drowning! Bro. Craft runs to the baptistery and dives in suit and all to save the kid!
Needless to say, Bro. Craft was very angry with that kid for a long time after that! haha!

Yeah...definitely think that hitting the singer in the face with the coat, among other things, would fall under "indecent" and "out of order."
If that happened in our church, I have no doubt that our pastor would issue an immediate and public reprimand.

The late Jamie Buckingham told a story about mid service Sunday baptism. The plan was for him to step down into the baptistry and baptize the candidate and then get out and continue on with the service after the choir sang. Well, he had on waders and the water was deeper than anticipated. The water filled the waders and he was unable to get out of the tank. His whole congregation saw him climb out of his waders and crawl out of the baptistery in his underwear so he could go on with the service.
