absolutely brilliant...... as a singer, I ALWAYS think long and hard about the words I am singing while at a church service. I am there to praise His holy name (but I can also do that the other 6 days of the week) ;]
Classic. Pure gold. Had me cracking up. Whats funny is that I was one of those holier than thou people until the Lord smacked me across the face with his grace. Can't fake it with the Guy, why bother.
@barber12345 glad someone finally understood its meaning!! you're right, it's a healthy reminder to come back to the heart of worship, cos its all about Jesus.
It amazes me that people have misunderstood this at all. My wife and I lead music and I find myself starting to think this way from time to time. It's a parody to expose hypocrisy that exists everywhere. This video is a reality check for singers, musicians, and congregation alike. It isn't about warm fuzzies or how good we did or didn't sound, or whether the sound system was perfect. It's about God and His majesty. "Heart of Worship" expresses how we should humble ourselves and make it "All abo
"Wherefore the Lord said, Forasmuch as this people draw near me with their mouth, and with their lips do honour me, but have removed their heart far from me, and their fear toward me is taught by the precept of men:" Isaiah 29:13 ~
May The LORD Have Mercy ~
"It is of the LORD's mercies that we are not consumed, because his compassions fail not.
They are new every morning: great is thy faithfulness." Lamentations 3:22-23 ~
It is not right to sing praise to mock people. The praise is to lift his name on high. Shame on you, First orlando. You tried to be Smart and Funny, but this is definitely not a way to do it.
@kejong84 They're not mocking people, they're just showing what really goes on during worship nowadays. Yes, praise is to lift His name on high and nothing else, that's the point this video is trying to make. I think this is a nice way to open the eyes of God's people who actually think these things during worship, because we can enjoy it because it's funny, and at the same time realize what we might have been doing wrong. Not trying to attack you or anything, just clearing things up. Blessings!
@kejong84 I THOUGHT THE SAME THING...THESE MELODIES CAME FROM INSPIRATION, NOW THEY ARE USED IN A JOKE? THE FEMALE SINGER HAS MATCHING CLOTHES AND EYE SHADOW...HOW IRONIC
Okay being that we do not see what happened prior to this I cannot say that this is Bad Worship. But what the song they sing does describe bad worship and false Christianity. And by the laughs and chuckles from the performers and the audience in the background, I can say that it is an accurate hypothesis to say that these men are not saying this is what they do but merely mocking what alot of people do in todays world.
@rockman0809 we all are, anyone who says otherwise is a liar. The problem with the church isn't that people feel this way, but that no one is willing to be straight forward and just flat out say "I'm not feeling much like loving God or people today!" We'll get ridiculed. If we actually let others know that we feel this way God will respect us more and we can be helped! Good Christians will always lift up those who need it, and NEVER drag them down!
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
This is a complete blasphemy. These songs were created and are enlightened by the Holy Spirit. Should there be reality? But for the sake of the gospel song, if you believe in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ who was honoured by this song you should not make fun of it. No wonder, they will be like the chaff tossed to and fro by the wind. I respect your fun, but take note... making fun of the gospel is a blasphemy the works of the anti-christ. Be warned!
It is funny but that is what hapen in churches for real. Sunday Morning Holy Ghost, and monday we are back to the same thing; jus going thru the motion. It hurts wen this happens.
@bhickman6 you say it the right: the followers of God made a mess, however it is therefore not God but them that should be mocked. It is like Adrian plass wrote in a book of his: It is difficult to turn away from a faith when the founder of it is walking right beside you shaking his head at the same things you are shaking your head at. humans are not perfect they make mistakes, Christians just as much as anyone else. If you only look at what people are messing up, you miss who God really is
This pretty much sums up why I decided to return to my Catholic roots and get things straight. I don't want to go to a rock concert on Sunday, but rather approach God with Love and Reverence. Granted I'm nowhere near perfect but I refuse to sing these songs of intimacy and feel like I've been to my senior prom then walk out the door and face reality of the world.
LORD have mercy on us, we are no different than the Hebrews after 250 years of receiving their promised land, we received the US almost that long. Why art thou cast down, O my soul? and why art thou disquieted in me? hope thou in God: for I shall yet praise him for the help of his countenance. If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal them
This is the problem I have with a lot of big meetings. It´s so big and flashy, and everything is focused on the music instead of god. This parody is AWESOME!
There seems to be confusion with people. These people are christians and are at church. They are not making fun of christians. But they are showing the truth of some of the people who go to church. not all christians are "christians". Its a title that some people think makes them sound better. But they go and sing songs, but it doesnt sink it really with their heart. They are just singing words. And whats funny is that there are alot of "christians" who only go to church on Christmas and Easter.
funny how people will say the church is full of hypocrites like it's something that isn't known. Yes, the church is full of hypocrites... and it is open for more.
@Istiian - no it's not mocking God. This video is just a clip of what the pastor wanted to preach on - worship. You'll be surprised how true this is that we can just give lip service to God but not mean it with all of our hearts.
@DiJohnny18 that is why people people who call that themselves Christians only go church to show themselves. They are not telling God that they love him and they dont give u themselves to God all the way. They do it for people just to see them. I not a hater but I currently DISLIKE people who go hyst to show themselves to toerhs and how great they sing and worship God. Same thing goes around facebook. People just want to show how Christian they are writing verses from the Bible.
This is such an accurate representation of what's going on today! If you're going to give yourself to Jesus, why not give him your all? Because it's an amazing place to be!
@divagirl4283 Yes, all worship at the feet of the well dressed charlatans. They're hearts lust for your money, and they demand your subservience, they don't believe the words they teach, but they are there to indoctrinate fools like you, so give them your all.
@saunei Yes. I was at this service. It was a skit. The service was about how some people don't focus on worshipping God, they sometimes get side tracked, worrying about thier hair, and have to have the right music and so on. The pastor was telling us to not focus on other things, to focus on God.
This is bloody amazing. It's refreshing to see Christians not only able to see themselves honestly, but (rather than hiding their shame) gently mocking their own attitudes in the hope of learning and growing. I love it.
It's funny but I felt my Christian life began to grow since I stopped attending Sunday services. It was then that I had to seriously look at my self and where I was going and from that point my Christianity started to grow. I'm a much stronger Christian now and have overcome many issues that I battled with for years. The truth will set you free.
@trmerciful We are all part of the Church. A building is just be meeting place to go. I say that the Church Buildings these days are probably in the same state the Synagogues were before Jesus arrived. I have to ask, what issues are you working on and how do you go about fixing it ? Jesus is the answer but not the process. We are all incorrectly programmed during out youth. We are blind to this. Finding material to read and reprogramming ourselves, or finding the truth will set you free.
@adrallan dont take this seriously - it's just a parody. this is basically what a lot of church-goers do. they just go to church and sing praises but they don't really mean it.
@trmerciful i know but the person said this was the work of evil -.-
this is just a parody for us to open up our eyes and allow us to sing with more meaning than just sing lyrics that we dont care about... b/c its so easy to go to church every sunday and sing the same songs but if we dont mean it we might as well not sing it...
This is so true! Especially the first bit about how we only worship on Sunday and that will last us a whole week, it shouldn't! We should be worshiping God everyday because of the goodness he has done throughout our lives, like Casting Crowns sing: "I will praise you in this storm."
I stand in the light of this TRUTH, that we all must come to KNOW that we're in need of being saved EVERY DAY, bc we are all HUMAN and cannot do it without GOD's help.
....otherwise we ALL have and will find ourselves singing these words in our heart! and we will tell ourselves we are doing just fine. How seriously heartbreaking. This song reminds you that you do need to GO AFTER GOD WITH ALL OF YOUR HEART, AND SURRENDER EVERY PIECE OF YOURSELF!
Taking primate: read a book called "case for a creator". It gives a lot of scientific evidence for God. In fact, in the book, a lot of reputable scientists give a lot of scientific evidence for their belief in not just a creator, but the God of the Bible.
There just haveing fun here people.lighten up they are tell people on how we can easly get off god and more on us wen are infront the people in church and it not about us it about god
Revelation 2: 4-5 But I have this against you, church of Ephesus that you have abandoned the love your had at first. Remember then from what you have fallen repent and do the works you did at first.
@jimjanable-- Or we can't find a church that is even close to our beliefs. You see, my family and I believe in the Bible and all that it says. We had to move for work. Once we got to North Dakota and started looking for a church we quickly realized that a great deal of the churches in our area teach from 3 "summaries" of the Bible rather than the Bible itself. Because of this and that I believe my children should be taught what the Bible says, we do not attend and do studies at home.
@nikkisomebody No church is perfect and I have never found one where everyone believes exactly the same. However, I do find that a bible believing church can edify me and my family and bring about relationships that give healthy underpinnings to our relationship with Christ. All Christian families should do as you do - study at home. However we do miss certain aspects of fellowship when we remove ourselves from consistently worshiping with others. You could be a wonderful blessings to a church.
When we watch this, do we think of the will of God, or do we think what isn't the will of God?
God is mightier than hypocrisy, God is mightier than the making fun of hypocrites. He holds them to their hearts, and not to their appearance. God never competed with idols by making an idol. Real worship is the best defeat of false worship, and they think they can change(some of) that with a hollywood set on a church stage? The heart of God is with the little ones. That's how someone finds worship.
I find the comments interesting...the term "hypocrites" seems to be a theme of people who don't attend a local fellowship anywhere. It's pride that will not allow us to acknowledge that we all struggle with hypocritical attitudes & actions at times. In fact, isn't that what the gathering of believers is for...to bring healing and teaching that assists us to cast off worldly attitudes and embrace Christian values? Most who have deserted church attendance have unresolved hurt in their lives.
@jimjanable This where we are headed in this instant satisfaction sociewty. We can fill a stadium cheering loudly for our favorite team, when many can't sit still for an hour of teaching and worship. To many pulpit pimps allowing Gods word to be prostituted for their own gain. One day they will be held accounatable for not only theirselves but for those they led astray.
@jimjanable Maybe most of the people who have deserted their church turned to atheism, and decided to do something constructive and worthwhile on their sundays.
@modnarbnoj It sounds like a scab has been pulled off of a wound. I'm not sure there is such a thing as a true atheist. We all worship something. Possibly even ourselves? I will have no other gods...but me?
So sad :( I will pray for you. God does exist and His Son the true Living God, Jesus Christ. He is my Lord and I know it. I hate that you're missing out on the wonderful blessing of having Him in your life. My prayer is that you know Him one day :)
I THINK YOU SHOULD OF USED OTHER SONGS INSTEAD OF CHURCH MUSIC AND CHANGE THE POWER OF THE SON.. BUT GOD WILL BE THE JUDGE OF IT.....2THUMBS DOWN FOR ME....
@talkingprimate Yep, Christians are not perfect. Only FALSE Christians claim they are perfect. The rest of us admit our imperfection and believe in the Perfect Lord Jesus and are saved by his sacrifce. Then we do our best to imitate his perfect life.
@talkingprimate This is what apostle Peter says about apostle Paul's writings: "His letters contain some things that are hard to understand, which ignorant and unstable people DISTORT, as they do the other Scriptures, to their own destruction." (2 Pet 3:16)
@florinmoc That's very convenient that that verse is in the bible. When is any believer going to pony up the scientific evidence of a God or Gods? Never? Yes, never. Why do you think that is?
You can't even prove that the bible is the inerrant word of God! All you have is faith. And faith is belief without evidence. So if you don't value evidence, well, you suffer from delusion. It's pretty cut an dry...
@talkingprimate Tell me, Talking Primate, the law of non-contradiction, where did it come from? For example it is impossbile for these statements "The tree exists" and "The tree does not exist" to be true at the same time.
So, the law of non-contradiction: is it a category of our mind or is it an attribute of the natural world?
If God does not exist, then I can believe whatever I want right? If we ar just "talking primates" what's the problem if one believes in God and one doesn't? Life has no meaning, and we invent meaning, right?
--suffer from delusion--
Again, what's the problem if "talking primates" suffer from delusion?
--So if you don't value evidence, well, you suffer from delusion--
How about discussing this subject AFTER we die? :o)
@ayo294 : MsMeee2 IS being the change. Instead of putting up with hypocrisy, she's not going at all. And that's the prevalent attitude these days. The church is dying, it isn't relevant to people like MsMeee2 or me, so we're speaking with our feet. If you want to keep the church alive, then you can try to change it, and good luck.
@link090909 How are you being the change if you are avoiding the people who need an impact? And the church isn't dying. The church is the body of believers who follow Christ, ACTIVELY. That is the church that I'm a part of, and this song calls out those who think they're saved by getting their daily dose of Jesus. If you're really a Christian, it's not a daily dose. It's a lifestyle.
@ayo294 if you want me to dig up statistical support, I will. however, the church is dying and by that I specifically mean church membership in America is declining. when a couple million people leave the church every year, that makes a statement and that changes things. when people like MsMeee2 and myself become disillusioned, that should be sending a message to you: you "Real Christians" are not doing a good job reaching out to the rest of us. the church is irrelevant
@MsMeee2 - I know what is correct worship because I've read scripture and I know what it says regarding how worship must be in spirit and in truth. You can have all of the fancy lights and music and you can put on your best dress and new makeup provided that your attitude is about worshiping God in spirit and in truth. You don't like that this clip criticizes those who don't attend church regularly and only at Christmas or Easter? Do you know what the scripture says about corporate worship?
@MsMeee2 - The point of this is that worship must be in spirit and in truth. In the attempt to become relevant, some churches have services that are more akin to a concert which is fine as long as it doesn't become about the music or the performance. 2 Timothy 3:16 also says that all scripture is God breathed and is useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting and training in righteousness meaning that if someone is out of line then you can correct them as long as it is done with the right motive.
This is hilarious and sad at the same time. When she sang, "I stand amazed at my hair-do", it took my mind to the last youth conference I took my group to. Walked in the bathroom, it was full of girls doing their last-minute primping on their hair, you could choke on the hairspray that filled the air. These people have captured the modern-day church's attitude wonderfully. Now if only everyone would take it to heart and make the needed changes.
So true. This must be exactly what the Lord hears when we just "go through the motions". The "I don't need a Savior" part of the song stirs my heart every time. May my earthly achievements NEVER remove the fact from my mind that I NEED the Savior!
So true. This must be exactly what the Lord hears when we just "go through the motions". The "I don't need a Savior" part of the song stirs my heart every time. May my earthly achievements NEVER remove the fact from my mind that I NEED the Savior!
such a powerful clip of what we do when we don't dismiss idolatry from our lives....whether that idol is ourselves (vanity) or the acheivements (pride) or complacency..i need to Love God MORE!!! Keep Posting! God First!
The people gettting upset are the ones this heart check goes out to.. Jesus doesn't want your religion or harsh judgement... be open and teachable!
The part where the lady sings "Savior, I don't need a Savior.." was very convicting for me. Oh Lord empty us of our pride, laziness and self centeredness!"
What a real eye opener. "I surrender some"....yeah that is me. It's not a laughing matter. I see the humor in it and I can relate to it (and know the songs and how the lyrics really go). Truth staring me in the face. I struggle in this area of surrending "all" I REALLY need prayer in that. Well done song. My Pastor has spoken many times about this and going through the motions and not meaning it. This should be sung or played on cd in church IMHO.

@saunei Yes. I was at this service. It was a skit. The service was about how some people don't focus on worshipping God, they sometimes get side tracked, worrying about thier hair, and have to have the right music and so on. The pastor was telling us to not focus on other things, to focus on God.

This is bloody amazing. It's refreshing to see Christians not only able to see themselves honestly, but (rather than hiding their shame) gently mocking their own attitudes in the hope of learning and growing. I love it.

It's funny but I felt my Christian life began to grow since I stopped attending Sunday services. It was then that I had to seriously look at my self and where I was going and from that point my Christianity started to grow. I'm a much stronger Christian now and have overcome many issues that I battled with for years. The truth will set you free.

@trmerciful We are all part of the Church. A building is just be meeting place to go. I say that the Church Buildings these days are probably in the same state the Synagogues were before Jesus arrived. I have to ask, what issues are you working on and how do you go about fixing it ? Jesus is the answer but not the process. We are all incorrectly programmed during out youth. We are blind to this. Finding material to read and reprogramming ourselves, or finding the truth will set you free.

This is so true! Especially the first bit about how we only worship on Sunday and that will last us a whole week, it shouldn't! We should be worshiping God everyday because of the goodness he has done throughout our lives, like Casting Crowns sing: "I will praise you in this storm."

....otherwise we ALL have and will find ourselves singing these words in our heart! and we will tell ourselves we are doing just fine. How seriously heartbreaking. This song reminds you that you do need to GO AFTER GOD WITH ALL OF YOUR HEART, AND SURRENDER EVERY PIECE OF YOURSELF!

Taking primate: read a book called "case for a creator". It gives a lot of scientific evidence for God. In fact, in the book, a lot of reputable scientists give a lot of scientific evidence for their belief in not just a creator, but the God of the Bible.

@jimjanable-- Or we can't find a church that is even close to our beliefs. You see, my family and I believe in the Bible and all that it says. We had to move for work. Once we got to North Dakota and started looking for a church we quickly realized that a great deal of the churches in our area teach from 3 "summaries" of the Bible rather than the Bible itself. Because of this and that I believe my children should be taught what the Bible says, we do not attend and do studies at home.
nikkisomebody 4 months ago
@nikkisomebody No church is perfect and I have never found one where everyone believes exactly the same. However, I do find that a bible believing church can edify me and my family and bring about relationships that give healthy underpinnings to our relationship with Christ. All Christian families should do as you do - study at home. However we do miss certain aspects of fellowship when we remove ourselves from consistently worshiping with others. You could be a wonderful blessings to a church.

When we watch this, do we think of the will of God, or do we think what isn't the will of God?
God is mightier than hypocrisy, God is mightier than the making fun of hypocrites. He holds them to their hearts, and not to their appearance. God never competed with idols by making an idol. Real worship is the best defeat of false worship, and they think they can change(some of) that with a hollywood set on a church stage? The heart of God is with the little ones. That's how someone finds worship.

I find the comments interesting...the term "hypocrites" seems to be a theme of people who don't attend a local fellowship anywhere. It's pride that will not allow us to acknowledge that we all struggle with hypocritical attitudes & actions at times. In fact, isn't that what the gathering of believers is for...to bring healing and teaching that assists us to cast off worldly attitudes and embrace Christian values? Most who have deserted church attendance have unresolved hurt in their lives.

You can't even prove that the bible is the inerrant word of God! All you have is faith. And faith is belief without evidence. So if you don't value evidence, well, you suffer from delusion. It's pretty cut an dry...

link090909 4 months ago
@link090909 How are you being the change if you are avoiding the people who need an impact? And the church isn't dying. The church is the body of believers who follow Christ, ACTIVELY. That is the church that I'm a part of, and this song calls out those who think they're saved by getting their daily dose of Jesus. If you're really a Christian, it's not a daily dose. It's a lifestyle.
ayo294 4 months ago
@ayo294 if you want me to dig up statistical support, I will. however, the church is dying and by that I specifically mean church membership in America is declining. when a couple million people leave the church every year, that makes a statement and that changes things. when people like MsMeee2 and myself become disillusioned, that should be sending a message to you: you "Real Christians" are not doing a good job reaching out to the rest of us. the church is irrelevant

@MsMeee2 - I know what is correct worship because I've read scripture and I know what it says regarding how worship must be in spirit and in truth. You can have all of the fancy lights and music and you can put on your best dress and new makeup provided that your attitude is about worshiping God in spirit and in truth. You don't like that this clip criticizes those who don't attend church regularly and only at Christmas or Easter? Do you know what the scripture says about corporate worship?

TheWCG1997 4 months ago
@MsMeee2 - The point of this is that worship must be in spirit and in truth. In the attempt to become relevant, some churches have services that are more akin to a concert which is fine as long as it doesn't become about the music or the performance. 2 Timothy 3:16 also says that all scripture is God breathed and is useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting and training in righteousness meaning that if someone is out of line then you can correct them as long as it is done with the right motive.

Walked in the bathroom, it was full of girls doing their last-minute primping on their hair, you could choke on the hairspray that filled the air. These people have captured the modern-day church's attitude wonderfully. Now if only everyone would take it to heart and make the needed changes.
