I attend both Catholic and Pentecostal churches, Catholic at home and pentecostal in school.
One of the sharp differences I noticed is the different attitudes towards secular music. In My Pentecostal church, it is preached against in all totality - even 'Gospel' songs that have their origin from secular songs are frowned on!

While in my Catholic Church, its the direct opposite. Just During New Year Mass, my Priest was singing Wande Coal My woman oh when he was preaching. When I was younger, we use to use secular songs to do Step-dance in church.

Why Is this So?

That's why one is a Catholic Church and the other Pentecostal. There would have been an actual problem if it was the same Church at different places.

But if you truly understand music and songs you will know that it does not only apply to your body to make you shake your body. But also to your mind to make your feel good, happy, depressed, sexually aroused or spiritually receptive. Report shows it that a lot of ladies felt 'wet' after listening to one of Nyangas or so 'Your waist'. Some even had to play it to have sex. Songs have a spiritual undertone whether you like it or not. Haven't you noticed a lot of people go crazy for songs that intellectually don't make sense, even when the singers are not good?

Hence why the Pentecostal ban it. Cos in order to be fully yielded to God you stay away from such that can take your mind, consciousness and spirit away from Him ie. secular songs

Because the kingdom of God have been suffering violence.people tend to do their will not the will of God

hmmm
