We are on the same wavelength, my friend!

Some church have services at deafening volumes,and think if they have don't have alot of volume they ain't having church.
Also why do some Preachers think they are annointed if they are screaming in microphones at the top of their lungs ?

No being loud isn't annointing, but being annointed MAY cause a preacher to get loud.

So, do you always preach as if you are "overpowered" and does that mean you're ALWAYS loud when you preach? Do you limit God's annointing power to cause you to preach loud? If God's word is already annointed, He will not need our help by being loud, wouldn't you agree? Of course, these are question for you to consider.

I took an aunt to visit my church in Nashville. They were contemporary praise and worship, excellent music is a must for a church in Nashville. Several SG people went there and learned how to worship with another style. Anyway, it was very loud. My aunt got up and went to the car. After church she told the pastor she loved the service. He said, "but you went to the car." She said, "yeah but I could hear just as good, and I had the windows rolled up."

I think a the perfect preacher would be a cross between comedians Steven Wright and Greg Hahn!

Loud does move people.

I've actually seen people get up, start clapping, and
"a-maning" when a man was yelling(preaching) indistinguishable words. And when they sat down he read what he had just shouted and it had nothing to do with God.

It may have been kinda rude to do that - but you don't often forget looking like a fool, which will remind you of why.

I understand often Holy Ghost preachers will be moved on to raise their voice,but some think that being volumious is being annointed,and that is just no true.
One time God moved as a mighty rushing or violent wind,one time He spoke in a still small voice,to me the main thing is for the manifest presence to be in a service and for God to move in whatever way He sees fit.

So, do you think that if a preacher is loud he isn't annointed?

I do believe annointed preachers can be loud.I have a dear brother and friend who is UPCI he has a booming voice and that is fine because he has a demonstrative voice, that's him and it suits him.

Brother Eastman what I'm saying is just because someone is loud doesn't mean they are annointed,if you take loud microphones from some being people they couldn't preach.
But hey Holy Ghost church gets noisy sometimes,I'm fine with that I believe in Holy Ghost hoedown services,but at the same time I believe sometimes things pass as the annointing that really aren't the annointing.AS a result of being annointed one can raise their voice and that's good.
