Well that's just annoying! God's love is so awesome why should'nt we have a party everytime we worship him? Why should'nt we use our God given gifts i.e. guitar or singing to praise him?? Here is a little tip...... Worship is'nt actually about us...it's about GOD! it's about singing our praise to God and CELEBRATING HIM! God is good and his love is amazing so why should'nt we celebrate this in whichever style we feel would make God happy? I pray for you to find the joy in God's love.

@bettyxgurl the real question is "what makes God happy?" and the correct answers are found in the bible... not in our wicked imaginations.

[chiefredbottom]

I never asked a question. I made a statement. But let me share this scripture... 1 Praise the LORD.[a] Praise God in his sanctuary; praise him in his mighty heavens.

2 Praise him for his acts of power; praise him for his surpassing greatness.

3 Praise him with the sounding of the trumpet, praise him with the harp and lyre,

4 praise him with timbrel and dancing, praise him with the strings and pipe,

5 praise him with the clash of cymbals, ...

@chiefredbottom Praise him while we rock n roll!

I have read about this argument many times. I would just like to ask this: Is there anywhere in the New Testament where it is specifically stated that instrumental music of any kind whatsoever was used in worship by Christians? If they didn't use it maybe we ought not use it either.

@LauderdaleBaptist Haha well did you know David danced NAKED in the streets? did you know the bible tells us MANY times to life holy hands in worship? Did you know that VERY MANY of hymns are made from bar tunes, only with different lyrics? What is wrong with lights? last time i checked different colored lights aren't bad. whats so bad about drums? last time i checked drums dont cause me to sin, or do anything unGodly? i never have seen any thing in the bible against drums

@chiefredbottom "And where are you geting this info?" Please explain your question a bit further, if you are asking about the bible verses a good place to start is the 14th chapter from Isaiah take note particularly verse 11......along with the NOISE of your harps' there are others, Not even kind David escapes God's critique regarding his music
