Christian Study - Dancing

Dancing
While dancing is not specifically condemned anywhere in the Bible, there
are a number of scriptural principles that would indicate that many types
of popular dancing are sinful either because of the dance itself or
because of the setting in which it is done.
Matthew
5:28
|
But
I [Jesus] say unto you that whoever looks at a woman to lust for
her has already committed adultery with her in his heart.
|
Romans
6:12
|
Therefore
do not let sin reign in your mortal body, that you should obey it
in its lusts.
|
Romans
13:13-14
|
Let
us walk properly,
as in the day, not in revelry and drunkenness, not in lewdness and
lust, not in strife and envy. But put on the Lord Jesus Christ,
and make no provision for the flesh, to fulfill its lusts.
|
Galatians
5:16,19-21
|
I
say then: Walk in the Spirit, and you shall not fulfill the lust
of the flesh.... Now the works of the flesh are evident, which
are: adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lewdness, idolatry,
sorcery, hatred, contentions, jealousies, outbursts of wrath,
selfish ambitions, dissensions, heresies, envy, murders,
drunkenness, revelries, and the like; of which I tell you
beforehand, just as I also told you in time past, that those who
practice such things will not inherit the kingdom of God.

1
Thessalonians 4:3-7
|
For
this is the will of God,
your sanctification: that you should abstain from sexual
immorality; that each of you should know how to possess his own
vessel in sanctification and honor, not in passion of lust, like
the Gentiles who do not know God; that no one should take
advantage of and defraud his brother in this matter, because the
Lord is the avenger of all such, as we also forewarned you and
testified. For God did not call us to uncleanness, but in
holiness.

1
Peter 2:11
|
Beloved,
I beg you as sojourners and pilgrims, abstain from fleshly lusts
which war against the soul,
|
1
Peter 4:1-5
|
Therefore,
since Christ suffered for us in the flesh, arm yourselves also
with the same mind, for he who has suffered in the flesh has
ceased from sin, that he no longer should live the rest of his
time in the flesh for the lusts of men, but for the will of God.
For we have spent enough of our past lifetime in doing the will of
the Gentiles --- when we walked in lewdness, lusts, drunkenness,
revelries, drinking parties, and abominable idolatries. In regard
to these, they think it strange that you do not run with them in
the same flood of dissipation, speaking evil of you. They will
give an account to Him who is ready to judge the living and the
dead.

1
John 2:15-16
|
Do
not love the world or the things in the world. If anyone loves the
world, the love of the Father is not in him. For all that is in
the world -- the lust of the flesh, the lust of the eyes, and the
pride of life -- is not of the Father but is of the world.
