"You know sanctified means separate from the world and that's where it's definitely a thin line because it can easily be crossed. Some people in the Body Of Christ ( I'm not complaining just explaining ) don't understand such! We must separate our self from the world even though we are in the world we are not of the world. The song is inspiring!"

"PRAISE HIM. Back in the day before you knew Jesus you would
dance to the devil music all night. Now
that you save you don"t want to dance to Jesus and don't want
anyone else to dance to him. You better get up and DANCE. King DAVID danced
before God praising him until he danced out of his clothes. Read your bible and
leave God's people alone that want to praise him in a Dance."

"I hate to be a killjoy, but this is just another example of
the christians of today looking to things that don't really magnify the most
high, it caters to fleshly and worldly desires. I bet a call to real prayer and
supplication would not get this kind of response! What our heavenly Father is
calling us to in these last days is repentance and returning to his way, but
people are drawn to foolishness and it is a trick of the Devil. Mat 7:13 Enter
ye in at the strait gate: for wide [is] the gate, and broad [is] the way, that
leadeth to destruction, and many there be which go in thereat"

"@Insert Name Here . I cannot look into these people heart and say they are not dancing unto the Lord. You cannot see in their heart. God said be careful and don't judge. He is the only one who knows the heart of man. You are treading on dangerous ground. Would you rather they be out there dancing to ungodly music . Your job as a christian is to not condemn. Is anybody reading the whole Bible anymore? Lets all go back."

"I agree with Sabrina. I enjoy people having fun. Especially
our young people. Because it is cool to be save. Although, what if God is not
happy with your praise? If HE'S not pleased with your singing and rejoicing is
not unto HIM. You're just satisfying your flesh. Keep it Holy! There still
should be a different look from the world. Remember we are a creative being. We
don't have to look and act like the world. Great song and some people did keep
in a respectful move/look!"

"@Susan P ...David danced before the Lord with all his
might. Danced til his clothes began to
fall off of him (not caring what others thought about him) - there's a
difference between that and twerking to a gospel song because u like the lyrics
and beat. [That's what this comment thread is about] I'm sure before you got saved u had a sense

music, I really do, and when this was sent to me, I fully expected to like the
song, but this one isn't for me. Not bashing,
I'm definitely happy to see so many enjoying it. I pray the best for him
with his music always. It's a happy and uplifting song, I'm just not feeling
the beat or the overall sound. I love music that bumps and praises YAH at the
same time, but for some reason, this one isn't making me want to turn up the
volume and move. But blessings everyone, keep enjoying!ππ½ππ½ππ½ππ½

"You got it twisted, acting like it's secular vs Christian
music. Overall music is music. NF, Lecrae, Tedashii, Flame, and many others are
rappers who are also Christian. We do wrong to act like Christian Rap is its
own genre and doesn't compare. It ask competes against each other, so stop
taking away from the talent these artists have."

47. Plus, even within just Christian music, you still have
Flame, Tedashii, NF, Andy Mineo, Benjah, Alex Faith, Group 1 Crew, Json, R.
Swift, Trip Lee, Hee Sun Lee, Bryann Trejo, and plenty others I could list who
sound better than this.
Keep in mind, I'm just referring to this song at least. I'll have to listen to others from him later but this was too much repetition and he was imitating other artists rather than coming up with his own sound."

"@Hair Poetry Amen.. The word says we are to use our voice,
musical instruments, our hands and dance into the lord.. we are so conditioned
to religious rituals versus biblical principles.. If ppl dont like, dancing ,
shouting, singing and loud praising they may not like heaven because the bible says there will be all of
that... I never understood how ppl could
dance and pop in the club but think it is not okay to dance for the Lord."

"telle895 God instructs us on how to praise Him. It's not
just something you "choose" how to do. He doesn't accept his people
giving him what the world gives unto idols....
Take heed to thyself that thou be not snared by following
them, after that they be destroyed from before thee; and that thou enquire not
after their gods, saying, How did these nations serve their gods? even so will
I do likewise. Thou shalt not do so unto
the Lord thy God: for every abomination to the Lord , which he hateth, have
they done unto their gods; for even their sons and their daughters they have
burnt in the fire to their gods. What
thing soever I command you, observe to do it: thou shalt not add thereto, nor
diminish from it.

"@Stephen Ray I am not defending this song lyrics. The
difference is the lyrics not music. The sound that comes from the instruments
makes the music; however its the lyrics or words that makes it Christian/Gospel
or secular. What I would say is if the
lyrics doesn't list Christ in it how can it be Christian/Gospel lyrics? Then again there are Christian/Gospel lyrics
that doesn't mention Jesus; however other words that deems it Christian/Gospel
referencing the Lords goodness and inspiration in the lyrics."

"Stephen Ray Do you know the difference between Anthony and
all of those other artists you just named? Anthony Brown is STRICTLY Christian
and doesn’t act as if he’s embarrassed to fully REP God. No it is not ok to
publicly rep God while still repping the world because you got people like
yourself and a whole bunch of kids who are confused and defending the wrong
thing against people who are trying to tell you right. You have people that
you’re influencing that are believing that it’s ok to be labeled a Christian
rapper but still record secular music. It’s not. Their sound may sound better
(in your opinion. I think Anthony sounds better) but their messages are not the
same. As a Christ representative, we’re supposed to be winning souls for
Christ, and if that’s not what you wanna do, cool, but you need to change your
genre or pick a side."
