1 Praise the Lord.
Praise God in his sanctuary;
praise him in his mighty heavens.
2 Praise him for his acts of power;
praise him for his surpassing greatness.
3 Praise him with the sounding of the trumpet,
praise him with the harp and lyre,
4 praise him with timbrel and dancing,
praise him with the strings and pipe,
5 praise him with the clash of cymbals,
praise him with resounding cymbals.
6 Let everything that has breath praise the Lord.
Praise the Lord.
There is some great worship music on youtube from JSM in Louisiana.
I just love listening to a lot of their songs. They have to use an enclosure because it might thunder the audience too much. I’ll post a song that I really like.

(some may want to enjoy the whole song - which is great - the last half of the song really picks up the pace - about 5:17 or so, I really enjoy listening to that brother in Christ play his guitar)
[6 Let everything that has breath praise the Lord.]
Well, amen to that. So I will also say:
Praise the Lord.
I don’t rightly know.
Very timely exhortation that MUST be heard and acted upon!
Repost - fixing the time where the brother plays his guitar before the song really picks up - and posting another worship song (LONG)

I wholeheartedly agree. We dress our best when we go to weddings, funerals, business meetings, court, etc.........because it shows respect. That was the rationale decades ago for dressing up for church. Everyone should be welcomed, if they come to church dressed in their own personal best. We’ve abandoned the wisdom of our forefathers, in an attempt to be all-inclusive.
“We Call On You” I play it every day. Elvis Presley Gospel Vol 6.
The corpus of the New Testament is the best attested text from antiquity. There are copying errors in many manuscripts, but the vast majority are easily resolved. There are only two major problem passages: The longer ending of Mark's gospel and the pericope of the woman caught in adultery in John's gospel. Dan Wallace explains both here.
I am convinced that I can bet my life on the Word of God. The hard part is obeying what I read.

My priest at an old parish put the onus on church leadership as well as the congregation. He told an anecdote about a teenager who came into the confessional and told the priest, "Father, last week I found myself in a situation where I was sitting behind a gorgeous young lady wearing a short skirt, and a low cut top. I couldn't keep my eyes off of her, and found myself filled with lust."
The priest replied, "Well my son, those are natural feelings, especially for a young man of your age, but you have to learn to discipline yourself and remove yourself from those situations when you find yourself in such circumstances. Where were you that you couldn't just get up and leave?"
The boy replied, "I was at 10 o'Clock Mass, Father."
