What happened to the old fashioned anointing? The real move of the spirit in the church and the church being, Looking and acting like the church. It’s summer and some of the churches are drumming up new and fleshly tactics to attract people who then expect this all the time.
Outdoor events Including dance, drama, rock style music and more. We are teaching people how to dance and trying to use David as an example when he “danced before the Lord”. Sorry friend David’s dancing can in no way be compared to what we are seeing today and it’s church promoting this junk.
The old saying is “if you don’t have the real thing you need something that looks like it”. May I suggest we get back to weeping and crying out to God and allowing the Holy Ghost to “drum up” what we need. Me and some other pastors have been saying “Pentecost -I mean the real thing- is becoming extinct and no one seems to care. I don’t need half naked worldly looking people dancing like a dance hall and strobe lights and drama that looks like some gyrating idiot to get the spirit moving.
Give me an old fashioned preacher with the anointing and some saint with the power of God to sing and some Holy Ghost Power. I might seem old fashioned and some might say I’ll some be extinct but there’s one thing about it. I know what I have and I know where I got it…
I think we need to read 1 Kings 21 where Naboth told Ahab and Jezebel ” I’ll keep my vineyard” you see yours might look better than mine. But mine is an inheritance I’m not willing to trade for dance, drama, art, rock and anything else. The Muslims, and the Amish don’t change their dress because it’s a different day. They stay the same and seem to be doing just fine. Call me old-fashioned call me an old fogey it doesn’t really bother me my Vineyard is not for sale!!!
Tim Hall and I approved this message
This is an open forum about CoG. Is this directed toward CoG?
Disney World Children’s Church!!!
Tim Hall Evangelist is a CoG full-time evangelist and his posting is directly related to the CoG, although it certainly can also give reference to other Pentecostal denominations. I say, AMEN Bro Hall. Keep up the good work.
That morden day dancing is not of God, that junk needs to go back to the night clubs where it came from. morden day C O G folks wre to see real pentescostal worship would scare them out oftheir wits.
I may be old fashion, Got my education out behind te barn, but I never let the cruse -o- matic junk get into my blood, and stray me away from the real Pentecostal experince , That I received in 1953. in Detroit Mich, and my experiance in that broored house when I found Jesus Christ and was born again the 17 day of March 1949 People really get born again their life will show it, they will leave the worldly junk behind and and do their best to please God. The Bible taught me you cant straddle the fience, you are either on one side or the other. I want to be on Gods side old slew foot Satan devil can take his junk to hell with him . I am not following him ifit hair lips a monkey swinging on a grape vine, I sam just an old time preacher called of God sent fourth and anointed with the Holy Ghost to preach salvation to sinners.
Is this forum for trying to lift up the blood stained banner of Jesus Christ, or is it desined to be aplace to argue. if that is all it is about ,I will leave it for good, I got better things to do with my time
Rev Harold E. Klump, it is a forum to discuss issues that relate to the CoG whether they are positive or negative. That is why it is called an OPEN FORUM. Just remember that it is in regard to the Church of God (Cleveland, TN). You should be a CoG minister or member, or else have been one at one time in your life.
