Dancing and the Bible: Is it OK? Moses, having received the law from God, returned from the mount to find the people dancing naked around the golden calf which they had formed (Exodus 32:19-26). The dancing of the daughter of Herodias had such appeal to the base human passion that Herod promised to give her anything she might desire, a rash promise which led to the murder of John the baptizer (Matthew 14:3-10). Our "modern dancing", a phrase used to include both ballroom dancing in which there is continuous body contact between partners and such dancing as that which commonly accompanies modern rock music, differs greatly from the dancing mentioned in the Bible, for such present-day dancing has no trace of religious significance, nor is it solo in nature, but involves men and women dancing together. The word "dance" in the sense used today does not appear in the New Testament; however, the idea it represents is mentioned and clearly condemned. The Apostle Paul lists -the works of the flesh and notes that "they who ... ... https://www.bible.ca/s-dancing.htm

Noss, John B.: Man's Religion John B. Noss, 1968, p481) The first Christian century has had more books written about it than any other comparable period of history.

Historical criticism has been particularly busy with them during the last seventy-five years, and has reached the verdict that in the New Testament the early Christian religion about Jesus has overlaid and modified the record of the religion of Jesus himself; but there is no unanimity about the degree of modification. It is known that Jesus himself did not write ... As you can see, Noss doesn't believe the inspiration of the Bible but is a modernist.

The Kingdom Of Prophecy Has Arrived! If the kingdom is not yet established, then the prophecy fails and God is a liar, for Rome has been gone for over 1500 years! At the very beginning of Jesus' ministry our Divine Savior said, "The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God is at hand; repent and believe in the gospel." Mark 1:15 Yet, there are those who say that Jesus ... If My kingdom were of this world, then My servants would be fighting, that I might not be delivered up to the Jews; but as it is, My kingdom is not of this realm." John 18:36. In the light of such scriptural proof, the conclusion that God established His kingdom on Pentecost is not debatable! Yes the Bible is a book of divine inspiration filled with prophecy. Although skeptics may attack the Bible, it stands as a monument for the world to admire! Conclusion: 1.
