As a Spirit-filled,
Bible-based church, we seek to worship God in spirit and truth according to
examples of worship found in the Bible.
We raise our hands because
1 Timothy 2:8 says, "I will therefore that men pray every where, lifting
up holy hands."
We clap our hands because
Psalm 47:1 says, "O clap your hands, all ye people."
We sing and play music
because Ephesians 5:19 says to worship "in psalms and hymns and spiritual
songs, singing and making melody in your heart to the Lord," and Psalm 150
says to praise God with musical instruments.
We worship with a joyful
noise because Psalm 66:1 says, "Make a joyful noise unto God, all ye
lands."
We pray aloud because the
early church "lifted up their voice to God with one accord" in prayer
(Acts 4:24).
We dance in the Spirit
because Psalm 149:3 says, "Let them praise his name in the dance."
We include testimonials,
teaching, preaching, and spiritual gifts because 1 Corinthians 14:26 says,
"Whenever you come together, each of you has a psalm, has a teaching, has
a tongue, has a revelation, has an interpretation" (NKJV).
