Misconceptions about Dace Ministry
Let’s address some common misconceptions about Dance Ministry:
1. Some say it was not done in the 1st century church as a form of worship.
According to scripture worship and praise are not the same, even though we use them synonymously. Anyone or every thing (creature) can praise God (Ps. 150:6). However, anyone cannot worship God. In order to do so, it must be done in spirit and in truth (John 4:24).
Scripture teaches us in Psalms 150 to celebrate God or to praise Him. It doesn't matter what century we live in or whether it is in the worship service or in our homes. I personally think that some believers have their own hang ups with dance in the church and that is something they will have to workout for themselves. If leadership in the local church has no problem with it and everything is done decently and in order, then who can contest it?
