I was in youth last wednesday, and I really got into the music and started raising my hands. I was to about Mufasa when I realized I had followed the steps exactly...
To those who are complaining, I'm Catholic, and our priest makes jokes during homilies all the time. God made humans, and He wants us to be respectful of Him, but He also wants us to treat Him as a Father and as our Best Friend. Who doesn't joke around with their father or best friend? Does joking with your father immediately mean that you're disrespecting him? God invented laughter and humor, and if you read the Bible and pay attention in your life, you'll see He has a sense of humor, too.
I've read some of the comments on here and here's my thoughts. Tim Hawkins is FUNNY! Tim Hawkins is a CHRISTIAN! Tim Hawkins is a FUNNY CHRISTIAN! If he was doing anything that a church that was disobedient to God, churches would not invite him to do his thing. Sometimes, non-believers even get introduced to a church or Christianity through events like Hawkins. Stop being so legalistic and have some fun.
If I ever feel like going vertical or doing a "worship javelin" or "throwing star" I'll move to the back of the sanctuary ;) Seriously, though, I've done a number of dramas and mime performances to songs and sometimes when we sing those songs I'll move to the back of the sanctuary so I can do the movements and not disturb others.
OMG! I went to a tongue speaking church with a friend. They all speak in tongues at once and this one lady grabbed what looked to be a scarf and did the exact moves Tim did. Waving and twirling. I was trying so flipping hard not to bust out laughing!
News flash God has a sense of humor! This man is breathing life into this room.! .this is exactly what i needed after dealing with hard hearted judge mental people that suck the air out of a room with religious spirits that run more people out of a church then welcome them in. God wants us to laugh it releases stress & restores the soul. Joy brings strength. So lets lighten up & pursue some of that joy you would be surprised at how many people you will draw to The Lord. ....ugh I hate legalism!
Zelda Chick, you have made very valid points. And you're really just 15yrs old?! It is apparent you have a heart for God & that He is imparting His wisdom to you. Your comments far exceed your age. I encourage you to keep on seeking Him because you are definitely on the right track. Yes, we are all at different levels with Christ. That's why I have stated that there was a time that I would have laughed at some of this. But we all need to press further into our walk with Christ...in His time.
"Laughter is the most beautiful and beneficial therapy God ever granted humanity." -Chuck Swindoll I can put a quote under a RUclips video too. Lighten up guys. There's a time for preaching, talking about series things and growing in m God, and there's a time to bust a few guts, enjoying God's presence a different way
I went to a service at a convention recently and they said "We are open about how you praise...Raise your hands, clap, whatever..."....This skit came to mind right away and I couldn't stop laughing...I got more then a few looks...:)
please note that the verse reads further in 1 Timothy 2:8 "without wrath and doubting." And in 1 Timothy 2:8 it specifically says "holy hands". The Word of Life Himself said" But the hour cometh, and now is, when the true worshippers shall worship the Father in spirit and in truth: for the Father seeketh such to worship him." So if you are truthfully worshipping Him then sometimes you will raise up your hands as a sign of total surrender. When God sees this He sees it as holy.
Please note that the verse further reads "without wrath and doubting", or argument as other versions read. John 4:23 "But the hour cometh, and now is, when the true worshippers shall worship the Father in spirit and in truth: for the Father seeketh such to worship him." So if you are worshiping in Spirit and Truth you might end up lifting your hands. But just know that there MANY other ways of worship like comedy, song, dance, instruments, and other great ways. If it's in Truth then that's it.
I hope one day you will relax a bit more and realize God is not going to throw down the fire and brimstone (until that glorious end) if you give a good belly laugh at yourself. Yes, "Give the Lord a High Five!!" My gracious what is wrong with that? I know what God we are talking about.. and I also know that our Jesus is the dearest and best friend this girl has ever had or will have. This is why Jesus and religious folk never got along, to set in the law not in the heart of it. Respect, peace
LOL I don't go to a handriaising church persay...but it itsn't frowned upon...I myself am a handraiser and I think how ever we worship the Lord He inhabits our praise! And, yes, I belief God has an awesome sense of humor....look at the platapus!!!
Oh Tim^-^ haha...Well to all of those who seem to be offended by him and Christians who enjoy a good laugh, think about this...God made the ostrich and the platypus, so I think it's safe to say he has a sense of humor. Also, Christianity is about a RELATIONSHIP with God...meaning yes, in fact he IS our best friend ;) now no disrespect intended at all, I'm just saying, I think the Lord loves a good laugh now and then otherwise he wouldn't have made Tim Hawkins ;)
What are germs? :P haha no kidding. I went to a daycare alot when i was little and im a dancer so germs dont bother me. *someone drops chips on floor* me: SCORE!!! *grabs food and eats it* ❤ P. ❤
News Flash God has a sense of humor. He expects us to enjoy our journey. Tim is breathing life into that place & legalistic people want to suck the life right back out......it's called joy people get some!
this is the song the lady with the worship javelin was listening to, " hands up they playin my song butterflies fly away! noddin my head like yea moving my hips like yea, hands up they playing my song and i know i am goin be okay, YEEEAAAAAAAAA it is a party in the USA
OMGosh! This may be 8 years old but so relevant in these days of self-isolation and social distancing!
Yeah, talk about not aging well. Our pastor is actually a germaphobe.
Wow yes now we social distance, plenty of space to be the flag lady!!!!!

Boomer humour right there

"It is the test of a good religion whether you can joke about it."

Someone make this guy like crazy famous! Please! The world needs to hear this humor!
Is that a throwing star for Jesus? Man, I may not be religious but good comedy is good comedy and this guy is fantastic.
I was in youth last wednesday, and I really got into the music and started raising my hands. I was to about Mufasa when I realized I had followed the steps exactly...
GIVE THE LORD A HIGHFIVE!
a time to weep and a time to laugh, a time to mourn and a time to dance, Ecclesiastes 3:4 Love to laugh! Thank you Tim Hawkins.
Oh my gosh I LOVE Tim Hawkins!!! He is hilarious!!!!!
Someone at my church did a similar thing to "heartburn", but at the stomach, so I called it "indigestion".
😂😂

When he did this at my church his fly was down and no one said anything. It wasn't even part of the act. It was hilarious!
bobiscoolman2 I highly doubt he ever came to your church
Would anyone else raise their hand when he said, "Do we have any people in the audience who doesnt go to a hand raising church?"
I'm spiritual, don't have hand raisin church but this guy I love. He's great. Hilarious act and so true!!!!
sabrinafair this isnt ment to be in real life, it is just commmedy

True
David Lucas I don't go to a hand raising church. I'm Lutheran. And liked this video 😉
Make it 198 people.
@@heidichrist4000 now it's 206
Actually, they are triggered these days. Take it as a personal attack. I presented this to my assembly of God friend. They were seriously offended.

Great quote, my friend! Thx for posting

It says to believe in tongues in the Bible. There is supposed to be a interpreter who understands.
You just kill the pastor with that javelin 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 I'm dead!! This is too funny!!

this is the most relavent comedy I have seen during this craziness
