Agreed. I think whatever makes you feel closer to God is good. Now a day, in a speedy world, an upbeat song is nice to listen to. And definitely, the words to the song make all the difference. But to what extent does the singer of the song go to, in order for it to be considered inappropriate? (ie. their movements and their style of dressing)

“To the pure all things are pure” - Titus 1:15, If this helps the growth any persons spiritual life, and it is truly down out of purity and love, allowing them to draw closer to God, who are we to interfere.

Another issue of interest about those musical instruments and its importance to some Christian believers i came across it recently in WYD and it might be of interest to some and that when bishop Zubier of the Catholic church of Sudan visited Sydney and a lot of of Catholic Christian believers from Sudan “mainly southern of Sudan ” gathered in the Mass to enjoy his visit and i was around to enjoy the blessing of this great spiritual man of God and they raised the issue that the old congregation missed the way of church life ” church culture ” used to enjoy their church and praise God over there through their DRUMS during the hymns and mass however they felt happy with the Australian way of life in the churches for their children , i believe it is happening the opposite with us as coptes in this part of the world , however the Bishop decided to send them two priests to fulfill their spiritual needs , what a great Democratic way and trust between a true spiritual shepherd and his flock to look after them , anyhow i thought to bring the issue as relevant to our current issue , we might benefit from it and learn about others as at the end of the day all of us Christians …praise the name of God by your life , amen ……

Our local English Church” Mt Druit ” has got well organized and cooperative group of deacons who work in a team spirit all the time during the mass as well as during the hymns which put the whole congregation with them in attentive way and in a big group enjoying the presence of Jesus with us and praising the name of God …..so with such good foundation and great right ritual attitude i beeeelieve the introduction of some modern musical instruments specially such organ , piano , violin during the hymns will maximize our heavenly enjoyment presence …our great David the prophet not only used to use musical instruments and singing but he used to dance for God from his great joy in his holy presence ….i believe it will be great positive experience for our church as one of the revolution organizational aspects to get our church in the next decades to come …..may God make the doors of the church open all the time and attract more believers till thy kingdom come , amen ….
