I highly doubt the Holy Ghost would lead someone to buy smoke machines and colored lights, and utilize them at a "Christian Rock/Rap" concert!

I'll tell you what the Holy Ghost is doing, He has his head hung in shame.

Re: Colored Lights/Smoke Machines/Strobe Bright Li

Smoke machines, lights, etc. do not hinder the Holy Ghost, or help God move. They are just THINGS and if kids like them, then they don't hurt. They are no different than having air conditioning or comfortable seats. Those things are unnecessary and we have them just because we like them. I've seen God move greatly with all the "extras" and without them.

Sherri, you know good and well that God can't move without a Hammond organ with a Leslie speaker!

Well, honestly, that is MY preference, but I have to remember IT'S NOT ABOUT ME.

Well, since I know the mind of God, my opinion matters! j/k

Sister, don'tcha know we have to go back to the days of dirt floors, one lightbulb, and a giant woodburner in the corner in order for God to move during services? Matterwitchu?

Re: Colored Lights/Smoke Machines/Strobe Bright Li

I have not read all of this thread, but my opinion is IF you have a powerful anointing then you don't need any gimics to reach the people.

If you have the POWER of God to heal, they will come.

If you have the POWER of God to deliver they will come.

If you have the gift of LOVE they will come.

Again, just my opinion.

Please! How can you compare air conditioning with colored lights, and comfortable seats with smoke machines

Air conditioner produces clean, healthy air, and filters dust, pollen, smoke from the air, dehumidifies the air, and creates a better feeling of wellbeing.

Standing for long periods can cause pain to ankles, knee, and hip joints, thus, comfortable seats.


I've just explained the health benefits of having A/C and chairs within a church.


Now you explain the health benefits of have smoke machines and colored lights at a Christian rock concert or youth services?
