Bible Question:
Dear friends, I have a question? I have friends who use flags to dance and worship in their Church services. I have searched the scripture and so far this type of worship is not mentioned. Timbrel,instruments, and dance are mentioned however flags, I do not find. Can anyone help me with this subject and perhaps if you might know when this practice began? Thank you |
Bible Answer: God's day to you, Melody Friend, and welcome to the SBF, First, I think we need to define worship. read posts 179472 and 215242 (Enter the numbers under Search on the right side of the page). I don't think dancing is a form of worship. I believe it is praise (Psa 149:3, 150:4). When I studied worship in the Bible for 6 months ... I concluded that our heart is different when we worship and praise, as well as serve. I doubt anyone has been applauded for being prostrate before the Lord. For flags look up banner or standard that identified the tribe (Num 1:52; 2:2, 3, 10, 18, 25, 34) ... and used in warfare (Psa 60:4; Isa 5:26; 11:12; 13:2; 18:3; 30:17; Jer 4:6 21; Eze 27:7). I have not found a banner used for praise. Searcher |
