Worship Became Chaotic During a Sabbath Praise Concert at the Danish Union Annual Camp Meeting in 2023

The highest spiritual authority in the Seventh-day Adventist Church for Denmark, the Faroe Islands, and Greenland is the Danish Union of Churches Conference. The Union's role is to advance the mission of the worldwide church by providing spiritual leadership and guidance to its conferences. That is what they are supposed to be doing. It seems to me that the following words, quoted by Charles Spurgeon, have come true today in many places within our church:

"A time will come when instead of shepherds feeding the sheep, the church will have clowns entertaining the goats" (Charles Spurgeon).

Last week, the 2023 Annual Camp Meeting of the Danish Union Conference of Seventh-day Adventists came to an end. Camp meetings are religious gatherings that typically take place in the beauty of nature and are meant to provide an opportunity for individuals to experience spiritual revival and renewal. These are supposed to be sacred convocations where God meets with His people to bestow blessings upon them. In fact, we were told from inspiration that our camp meetings would be one of the designated places for the outpouring of the Latter Rain.

But how can God bless us and shower us with the Latter Rain when there are wild bands playing at our camp meetings and the singers move their bodies in unnatural ways while yelling, laughing, jumping, and dancing with a mosh pit of cheering fans, just like they do at rock festivals? What we fail to realize is that all of the countless apostate Sunday-keeping churches are engaging in this same type of profane, irreverent, and blasphemous amusement.

Pastor Dejan Stojković, who is the Trans-European Division Youth and Pathfinder Director, delivered a sermon while sharing the same stage with the band. However, Pastor Dejan Stojković didn't say anything or raise his voice against the chaotic concert. The band actually performed both before and after his sermon. By not voicing opposition or taking a stand, this is seen as implicitly supporting and condoning the disturbing performance.

The Danish Union Conference President Thomas Muller and the Union's Executive Secretary Lasse Bech can both be seen on the same Sabbath standing on the same stage where the worship turned wild. Those in positions of leadership have the responsibility to actively do something and raise their voices whenever there is wrongdoing. That is one of the roles of leadership. They are supposed to lead and be the first ones to speak up and take action when God's truth and principles are under attack. Unfortunately, as in many other cases, nothing was done.

We have church leaders and members all around the world who are pushing for these new modern worship styles with drums and dancing. And if your church, your pastor, your union president, or a division leader puts these ideas in your head, rebuke that pastor and run away as fast as you can, because that place is a worldly and pagan dance club, not a place of worship. Those who introduce these worldly methods into our worship service and those who support them have unchurched the church.
