From all the comment have read here I think we need to understand few things first.1. Dancing seductive dance in the church is not allowed and shud be condemned. 2. Dancing a particular dance step to glorify God so long as its not seductive and flirticious is not bad. 3. U only dance as ur spirit leads u pending on the beat of the song.. For all those saying its wrong to dance a particular dance step that its worldly, they have fail to tell us which dance is heavenly not one of them cud tell us which dance is heavenly. Lastly, I remember growing up and dis woman in my church will always turn her back and shake her big bum bum while dance and not for one did any thought entered my head cos I knew she was dancing to glorify God and most pple at her back will just laugh at her dance..God bless u mama Oshodi(CKC ajegunle) 1 Like |

Jennimma: Is it godly to dance worldly steps in church? You want them to do heavenly dancing ? Any church that plays loud music and dance like lunatics you will never find me there. Team MFM and Deeperlife forever. |

How would you respond should I say: I see Obama everyday Anyway for the records I'm not religious&neither was the Christ... in fact this your saying reminds me again of a statement somewhere in Luke: And the Pharisees and scribes murmured, saying, This man receiveth sinners, and eateth with them.

Jennimma: I'm not trying to judge anyone. No.Hello sure u saying your mind, one thing about dancing is the rhythm of the song that determines your movements, if the aim of the dancer is to glorify God and not to seduce, I believe there is notin termed worldly in the dance steps,u dnt have to be churcy to notice and say dis...the motive behind the dance matters most and that determines. |

Let me enlighten the poster. There is no such thing as worldly dance. All that exists are dance steps. A Christian can choose to use the dance step to glorify His. Lord. Afterall the dance steps were inspired by God. Devil only stole it and started using for his doomed kingdom. All inspiration came from God |

Blockus:Am sorry, but it is a greater sin to miss lead your fellow man and worse still by the use of the scriptures. Point N0 1: David was a man after gods own heart i.e he can never do wrong in the sight of god. Point N0 2: He was filled with the holly spirit during the dance and his actions was not contiously co ordinated to say he disrobbed himself on purpose. Point N0 3: Back in the days there were no trousers, pants, skirt, shirt or what have you to better clothe oneself, what they had was robes, fastened by a pin on one shoulder which can easily fall off when vigoriously shaken. |

Without trying to sound judgemental isn't the display of these dance steps a testament to the fact that most of our youths are viewing these almost sexually explicit videos (where these dance steps are first introduced) in private? For me I'lld have no problems if the "spirit" dropped the dance step in your heart during Church praise but if after having watched these videos (which I'll insist are nothing but near-pornography) you decide to worship God with such dance steps then I feel that is a problem....... But since we cannot know which dance was spirit inspired or gotten from having viewed these song videos then we'll have to leave judgment for the lord.... |

Tallesty1:you used the word "If" that means there is a possibility that it does not glorify God, some songs are devil inspired, so are some dance steps. You can't give God what belongs to the devil. Dance steps evolve as new songs evolve, some artist invent a dance step to move with his song, now most artist this days sing erotic songs, so should we use dance steps of erotic songs to worship God? E.g dance pull over in church (kcee ft wizkid), dance mapouka in church (south africans), or give a brother a holy Lap dance in church (nicki minaj style) or even shoki, to me shoki is a gay man's dance. Dance steps invented by the devil 2ru cocaine addicts, sex freaks or females you would never want your junior sister to emmulate their character, you then carry the dance steps to church. This is one reason Muslims see themselves superior to christians, No girl born by a woman can wear mini skirt inside a mosque, I was passing my school mosque one day and I raised my shirt up revealing my abdomen, if you see how one guy shouted at me ehh, as if I stole, yet I go to church and I see girls revealing abdomen, nobody is talking. Now I know why the bible says the devils is wise; the simple logic the devil is trying to use that most christians are not seeing is; He is trying to pervert the church, nobody will know what is sin and what is not, sometimes I begin to wonder the spirituality of our great grand children. They won't know what sin is when they are told that masthurbation is not a sin, when they are told to wear club clothes in the house of God, when they are told to dance erotic dance in church, when they are told that divorce is not a sin, by that time, islam would now look like the most Holy religion. I am not a pastor or evangelist or a very devoted christian, its just my conscience speaking. 3 Likes 1 Share |

Jennimma: Is it godly to dance worldly steps in church? Unfortunately, the last time i checked, Dance is a type of art that generally involves movement of the body, often rhythmic and to music. How on earth has a type of movement becomes associated with the 'world' and another associated with 'church' 1 Like |

Re: Why Do People Dance Worldly In Church? by poik(m): 2:38pm On Aug 31, 2014 |
To say my mind, there is no heavenly dance. There is nowhere in the scripture we are following where the mode of shaking and twisting the body was aptly specified. I want to pick a classic example here. What kind of dance do you think the children of Israel danced and praised God with, when they successfully crossed the Red Sea? Most probably what they saw and learnt in Egypt. And did God receive the praise? An emphatic, roof-tearing YES. Most times, we do not even know what God requires of us, talk more of meeting up, that is why we keep dwelling on trivialities as this, ignoring the weightier matters of the law. This has nothing to do with living steadfastly for God in this perilous times. I don't know how to dance azonto or skelewu, or Etighi, but I sure have the frame, energy, waist, and drive, as well as the Spirit, to shower praises and encomiums on my God,whichsoever way He leads me. Regardless of who is watching and sneering. But there's a caveat though- it stops glorifying God when it arouses clandestine effects or draws inordinate attention to the dancer. |

Some people are missing the point. You can only do what you learn! Now the question is; where do Church members learn skelewu dance steps?? From whom do they learn these steps from?? (lol) That's the point; but of course, in a forum where over 90% of the entire members are pastor bashers, anti-church and anti-tithers; the truth can never prevail. I dropped the whole arguments on religious matters a long time ago. People should do whatever they feel is good for them, and their god (if they serve one). Meanwhile, the newest dance step from Nigerian artistes is "shoki". We urge our "heavenly" Choiristers to please introduce the steps and tag it Holy Spirit inspired The Devil is really winning the battle in Nigeria, using the "church" as barracks 1 Like |

to agree with the OP. It's not about skelewu or others sha, it's when ladies start dancing in church & rubbing their butts against a guy's something. Is it a church service or a bedroom service?[/quote]ahhhhhhhh!(rubbing their butts against a guy's something)I don't think this happen in churches generally,4wat now? |
