Should female Christians Twerk? by EmmaNuella77(f): 4:45pm On Nov 08, 2020
I just want to get clarity on this
Like is it wrong for a Christian female to twerk?

Are there "Appropriate" places for Christian females to twerk?

Is it even an appropriate dance in general?

What are your thoughts ?

I wont condemn anyone for twerking in church but people need to know that it is labelled as sexually provocative.

Intentions matter though, some churches will not accept it nonetheless

Sadly, the popular reason for twerking these days is to flaunt and arouse.

Dancing was not uncommon among the ancient Israelites and was employed on various occasions. Miriam, the sister of Moses, and other Israelite women, celebrated the total destruction of Pharaoh's army in the Red Sea by joyously moving their feet (Exodus 15:20 - 21).

King David, when the Ark of the Covenant was being brought to Jerusalem for the first time, celebrated by dancing around it during its journey (2Samuel 6:12 - 14). Such joyous behavior was common during God's annual Feast Days (Judges 21:19 - 21), in public triumphs (Judges 11:34), and during anytime that required rejoicing (Psalms 30:11, Jeremiah 31:4, 13).

There is no direct statement in the Bible forbidding married couples from dancing or calling the act, in all circumstance, as being a sin. The acceptability to perform this activity for all others, however, depends on the situation.

The Biblical Illustrator Commentary states in regard to the appropriateness of this act, "Dancing in itself, as it is a set, regular harmonious motion of the body, cannot be unlawful, more than walking or running. Circumstances may make it sinful . . ." (Biblical Illustrator - the Gospels, commentary on Matthew 14:1 - 11).

Jesus taught that lust, which is the strong desire to have sex with someone who is not one's mate, is wrong and a sin. Although his teaching discusses lust of men toward women, it is meant to apply to ANY human toward another person (Matthew 5:28).

Sexually suggestive dancing (performed by a person to "entertain" others, by people who are dating, etc.) is not appropriate. Such behavior can tempt others to commit further sin beyond any lust they create in their hearts. That said, Scripture permits a person, either by themselves or with others (e.g. singles who are dating) to dance so long as their motive is not to entice others to disobey God.

OP porn never get subtitle

Always use your brain,


Twerking involve you moving sexually , while dancing is not

You can twek if you're with the right person, no sin about that,

But shaking yansh for the world ain't okay at all smiley
Re: Should female Christians Twerk? by nwaezeemmanuel(m): 5:06pm On Nov 08, 2020
Why i may tag twerking in church as quite unethical is because of the nature of the dance. I even think it is more than a dance these days.

If a woman is twerking right, she is putting quite some effort and thought to bounce her buttocks in a sexual way.

This shifts attention from glorifying God to so many other things. As much as i feel boxed by church doctrines, i won't be mad if some churches don't condone it.

What is twerking meant for? To shake your ass and seduce men or for body gratification every aspect of it is sinful, so no a Christian should not twerk

Twerking is healthy for the body

It strengthens the ass

It energizes the waist

It Brightens the FEMINITY of the woman

Please my dear twerk on

I think, if you trace the actual origin of the dance, that you'll find that it was meant to entertain/entice men. So, to your question I say, YES it IS wrong for a devout christian female to twerk in front of a male person in public and in private (in private if the person is not your wedded spouse). To support my stand, there is a part of the bible that says to refrain from any action that would make your brother fall.

Religion is man made...yet, even Jesus Christ, did not endorse 'christianity'...the movement started after he died. Enjoy your life...matter is all there is, of course there is mystics too, but religion is a farce.

Most times we know the answer to our questions but just want people to validate our contrary opinion so we can feel justified to go against our conscience.. and so far, the people here are validating the wrong position..

Can you imagine any of the virtuous ladies in the Bible twerking

Only exception is if you are married and you are alone with your husband.. twerking is sex(ual) and only within marriage is sex and sexual stuff permitted.. marriage is honourable and the bed undefiled says the Bible.. Jesus said if you look lustfully at a woman not your wife, you commit a sin.. how won't men look at a twerker lustfully
Of course the twerker is also guilty of corrupting others.. indeed the purpose of twerking is to sexually excite and arouse the onlooker!
