Saints, do you actually think that they praised GOD in dance back in the Bible days like we praise GOD in dance now? A while back, who would have sat
you down?
Who would sit us down today? Do you think that every chruch praises GOD is dance the way we do? Beleive me, they don't. Assemblies of GOD worships in dance much different than COGIC or Full Gospel Baptist. The important thing is that you worship GOD in Spirit and in Truth!
The old saints also would give some of us lapclothes for the length of some of the sister's dresses, tell some of the sisters to take off their makeup and their earrings, tell them to wear heels no longer than "so high," tell us that it was a sin to play basketball or football and you better not play even if it did get you a scholarship to college . . . the list goes on. I love the old saints, too . . . they were sincere and strong, but they were not right about everything.
And if everyone in the charismatic movement praises GOD through dance the same way . . . ways that are acceptable to everyone in the church . . . . then could not someone possibly say that they are not imitating each other? How much "practice" did it take before those people with "acceptable dances" got their moves down pat?
Oops, yes I said it.
And do we actually think that we can tell the sincerity of someone's walk with GOD through their dance? Come on, folks. If they have the proper steps right, could drug dealers and pimps and hookers dance in the chruches where everyone would "sit this young man down?" Maybe the young man was expressing joy the only way he knew how. he sure looked sincere by the expression on his face.
There was another person who didn't like wild dancing . . . her name was Michal, David's wife . . . . and she rebuked him for the way he danced and . . . well, you know the story.
