3.) The "Barrel" Move
Picture 4 of 17
See, these kids are doing it right. To do the "Barrel Move": 1.) Keep both feet planted on the floor. 2.) Move arms woodenly while keeping elbows tucked close to body. 3.) In fact, keep all bodily movements restricted to within 4 inches of your body's circumference. 4.) Do NOT look like you are enjoying it. (Photo by Judy Baxter via flickr)

“Praise Him with a tambourine and dancing.” (Psalm 150:4) “Let them praise His name with dancing and make music to Him with a tambourine . . . ” (Psalm 149:3) “Miriam the prophet . . . took a tambourine in her hand, and all the women followed her, with tambourines and dancing.” (Exodus 15:20)
I think the “dancing” thing here gets misinterpreted sometimes . . . Miriam was tapping on a tambourine and walking, maybe with a little bit of a sway but not too much, at the same time . . . multiple motions (tapping fingers, bodily sway, walking feet) are “dancing” fer sure.
So I guess you were there to see exactly what happened, right? And is it OK if I chew gum and walk at the same time?
Also important for clapping is that it MUST be done on beats 1 and 3, not on the devilish beats of 2 and 4.
Under the “cultural dancing” in foreign costume category, would square dancing in the bright western skirts, etc. be ok? Just seeking guidance.
You wanna see some dancin’. Just wait till the many divisions from Asia, Africa, etc. put on a display at the 2015 GC. WOW!! Don’t forget the old timey marches of years gone by. I love the “YMCA” movements. As for the Pathfinder “drilling”? It is a cultural thang! Even the Military shies away from that stuff. Anyway, I’m in-right, up-right, down-right, out-right happy all the time. Gimme that old time religion.Father Abraham Had Many Sons. I’m In The Lord’s Army. Foot stompin’, hand clappin’, toe tappin’. Whoop it up!! Woe is me!!
It’s OK to dance as long as you “leave room for the Holy Spirit.” (Leave at least one Bible-length between you and the next person: http://cool.orgfree.com/leaveroom.html )
Since when are mimes sanctified to perform in church
