Gloria In Excelsis Deo!!!
in other words, you let them feel high (as opposed to KO them using hymns .. haha), and when they are ready, you start to tell them the gospel?Originally posted by gasband:Firstly, I used "those music" as a form of evangelism.
Secondly, while the usage of "those music" for worship may be controversial, it is nevertheless used in many parts of the world to great effect. And we are not just toking about heavy metal music, we are also toking about using electronic music and art drawings....
Thirdly, what is worship music? Must it have God and Jesus in the lyrics and must it be like most Hillsongs with a 4/4 rythmn?
How abt very "high" pastor and very "high" worship music?Originally posted by Icemoon:in other words, you let them feel high (as opposed to KO them using hymns .. haha), and when they are ready, you start to tell them the gospel?
I always wonder .. do Christians go church to feel high or hear the Word of God?
I give you two choices:
1. Very anointed pastor and very sleepy worship
2. Very sleepy pastor and very 'high' worship music
Choose one.
The question is 'how many'Originally posted by Icemoon:Just wondering .. Vatican City got choir or not?
pple are spirtually empty...they need to get high!Originally posted by laurence82:Drugs also can make u 'high'
This high feeling is what we Catholics think of as Stage 1 of the interior life.Originally posted by laoda99:pple are spirtually empty...they need to get high!
Like me, always high after a charismatic service.....
wah leow eh .. you really sound protestant.Originally posted by ObiterDicta:This high feeling is what we Catholics think of as Stage 1 of the interior life.
There are 3 stages in all. Stage 3 you become one with God's Will, and one may in fact not feel 'high' at all in this stage.
is there such thing as a catholic calvinist?Originally posted by Icemoon:wah leow eh .. you really sound protestant.
Ironically, the ultratraditionalists have condemned the idea of women lectors as a protestant one.Originally posted by gasband:Yeah I am very liberal now. I dun know about that church now. You all have women lectors during Mass? Wow....thats no wonder....the Catholic church allows everything

These ideas of the interior life goes all the way back to times before there were Protestants. One could find signs of them in the writings of St. Catherine of Siena in the 1300s.
