When you get something from the Lord you not going to sit up looking like totem poles!

46 And they shall be upon thee for a sign and for a wonder, and upon thy seed for ever.
47 Because thou servedst not the Lord thy God with joyfulness, and with gladness of heart, for the abundance of all things; - Deuteronomy 28

9 And Nehemiah, which is the Tirshatha, and Ezra the priest the scribe, and the Levites that taught the people, said unto all the people, This day is holy unto the Lord your God; mourn not, nor weep. For all the people wept, when they heard the words of the law.
10 Then he said unto them, Go your way, eat the fat, and drink the sweet, and send portions unto them for whom nothing is prepared: for this day is holy unto our Lord: neither be ye sorry; for the joy of the Lord is your strength. - Nehemiah 8

You seem to need an emotional fix every Sunday when you go to church. I thought it was to enjoy fellowship, receive the Word and be built up in your most holy faith?

Waiting for just one NT example of "shouting Amen".

Just one.

Or how about the barking dogs of the "Toronto blessing"?

I cant imagine the people just sitting there looking like post-trib totem poles!

49 And, behold, I send the promise of my Father upon you: but tarry ye in the city of Jerusalem, until ye be endued with power from on high.
50 And he led them out as far as to Bethany, and he lifted up his hands, and blessed them.
51 And it came to pass, while he blessed them, he was parted from them, and carried up into heaven.
52 And they worshipped him, and returned to Jerusalem with great joy:
53 And were continually in the temple, praising and blessing God. Amen. - Luke 24

If shouting is OK, then so is barking, right?

There are no "post-trib totem poles", for the post-trib multitude, the Church, has been brought victoriously through great tribulation by the Lamb, in Whose Blood they have washed their robes, and Whom they worship and serve day and night.. (Revelation 7:9-15)

Of course, I do not accept a future millennium. Of course, Jesus is not on the millennial earth for its duration. Why do you keep saying that? I am Amil. We have been in Rev 20 since the first resurrection.

Is Jesus on your millennial earth?
Are all the resurrected saints on your millennial earth?
Yes.

No.

Where are all the resurrected saints during your millennium?
I don't think chapter divisions are inspired. Show me where Jesus leaves earth in Revelation 20.

You don't know where you will be after the Second Coming

More avoidance. That is what you do.

If people want to bark, shout, speak in tongues, moo like cows, cluck like ducks, meow like cats, it is no harm to me... As long as they carry a good spirit with them after the church service. What is really annoying is when there is nothing there at all and people do not carry a good spirit with them after whatever service they chose to attend.

Really? This is a circus. These people belong in a farmyard. This is not the Spirit. The fact you are comfortable with this is very troubling and speaks volumes.

You are avoiding the fact Satan was bound at the battle of Armageddon, after he was defeated and his army.

No verse states Satan was cast into the LOF at Armageddon.

Paul would undoubtedly have approved of a livestock show. :laughing:

1 Corinthians 14
40 Let all things be done decently and in order.

There is supposedly a great revival going on at Asbury University in Ky. I haven't looked into it that heavily... However... It is nice to see decent young men referring to "a great move of God."

That is indeed inspiring.

With no mention of shouting.

Indication of a good spirit is when people behave like circus clowns????

Show me where Jesus changes location in Revelation 20. The chapter starts out with Jesus at Armageddon watching Satan being bound and placed in the pit. There is no scene change from victory to victory.

Show me where John goes back and witnesses the death, burial, and resurrection of Jesus immediately after Armageddon.
