What kind of Christian are you?

Sometimes we need to take stock of where we are going with our prayer and worship. Some people "fall by the wayside" because role models whom they admire might make a mistake which has horrible implications...
I've been a Christian all my life (don't know any other way, nor do i want to) however, I'm university educated, and on one occasion i got called an undercover Christian because i'm not naturally a pentecostal Christian who waves hands in the air and speak in tongues...I'm a firm believer that God speaks to our hearts and minds too...but, I wonder...what kind of Christian are you?
I sing and dance and worship in tongues otherwise my life is not complete
I am a gentle worshipper, who finds completeness in the order of God's will, and beauty in the peace that offers me.
I'm still learning, have only been a Christian a short while
I live very closely to God, but I find the church that I attend seems stifling and unenthusiastic.
I'm only curious about Christianity

You don't give any choice there really, i am a pentecostal Christian but i don't necessarily do the 1st one or any of the others, however I do like to sing and dance before the Lord

Gods way is my way,...Clay

I'm more in a section of been saved for a while and still not that close to God. That is only because of my nature to be rebellious. I tend to be hard-headed.

Singing and dancing is cool, but i'm a liitle bit of a quiet guy. I usualy sing and clap my hands together, but that is about it.

I like singing and dancig for the lord as i praise him. Since he really needs the praise for his goodness, his steadfast love, his mercies bestowed towards us christians. I am still young and energetic for i have lived an active life of exercize. Basically we Africans sing dance and jump for the lord in our churches to praise him.

We are not as reserved as you caucasians this is from my observation. We are really outgoing in many aspects of our lives.

You know as we offer to God we also praise him.

Though for me it depends on the situation and how the holy spirit leads me.

I'm mixed race and even though I would personally choose option 2, I don't frown upon any other way of worshipping God. Our relationship with God is personal. We are all unique. God calls us all for a different role, but a similar purpose. As mother Theresa said, "I am a pencil in the hand of God, who is writing a love letter to the world." ...or as the saying goes "different strokes for different folks" Have a blesséd Friday sister!

When in Rome I do as the Romans::::::::::As Paul said I have become all things to all men that a few might be saved//////////I have worshipped in diffferent churches all over the world and always worship as they do so as not to offend my brothers/sisters in Christ that may not be mature enough to understand different ways//////////If Christ be lifted up men will be drawn to HIM////////At home in my house now that is a whole different question,,,,,,,Which is PRIVATE worship and will remain PRIVATE

I'm a pentecostal. I worship him in Spirit and truth:
a) Accordingly, just as church procedure requires like every other worshippers.

b)But Sometimes by speaking/singing in tongues and dancing, yet without disrupting the orderliness of the church.

c) When I'm alone, I worship him more in tongues than understanding words.

Hey
I like to sing and dance and talk in tongues during Church worship, but it is not what makes my life complete and doesn't happen everytime I'm in church. I enjoy a wide range of worshipping experiences and thing we all need to put the focus on God and not on us and what we want out of it.

Have a good one!
