Date Posted: 02:16:39 03/22/07 Thu In reply to: CRM Moderator 's message, "Re: CCM" on 20:54:52 03/21/07 Wed First I would like to apologize for confusion, Dean is normally the name I go by online, Chris is my first name. I have had an ear infection the past couple days, and put chris down while feeling quite, well the room was spinning at the time. My mom enforced certain rules while I was at home, now on my own i guess i still worry, the internet is not a safe place. I do agree with you concerning worship. Nearly everytime the word is used it is accompanied with some form of the word "bow". I do think, however there is a distinction from praise and worship. God gave David a guideline for worship in I Chronicles, listing only a handful of instruments that were to be used. (versus the myriad of instruments listed in the Psalms) Worship always involved sacrifice, not simply a looking at the mountains and feeling good. The OT was a picture of what we should do today. Our sacrifice according to Roamsn 12 is ourselves. We definatly should revere worship as a solemn holy practise. Personally, I feel that the opening of our service (where we sing Victory in Jesus, and Power in the Blood), is praise, and the invitation is really an oportunity to worship God (Just as I am) Solemn music is played, emphasising humility. An altar is generally present, allowing us to take our sacrifice to God. Your information on emotions is interesting, and I will study that out more. I don't know if I agree totally with you, I do agree with the principal, but mabey not the extent. The Bible does support the principal. Well I guess I will continue to "Study to show thyself approved". [ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ] |
