SDA Issues - Music & the "holy flesh" movement

"Well there was a time when music was used incorrectly in worship service. 

It was taught by a Conference evangelist in Indiana named Elder S.S. Davis in 1898, 1899.  He began a movement know as “The cleansing Movement” later to be termed “the holy flesh movement”. 

It was a teaching of the devil that we needed to have the same
experience as Jesus did in the garden of Gethsemane.  It was also said that Jesus  experienced holy flesh in His Gethsemane and if we followed in the same footsteps we could gain holy flesh too, and have “translation faith”. 

By obtaining this holy flesh you would not see any more corruption than Jesus did, and by having this translation faith you would be like Enoch and Elijah.  Those that did not have this experience would have to pass through death in order to obtain your reward.

In order to achieve this holy flesh and translation faith, the people would gather at many meetings where there were
--long prayers,
--loud music and excitement
--and hysterical preaching. 

They were led to experience a physical demonstration of their faith through the music.  As the emotion grew, many fell prostrate on the ground and were carried off to the pulpit where shouting would be given to the person who was passed out.  Through that experience it was taught that one gained their “spiritual flesh.”

We have also a more sure word of prophecy; whereunto ye do well that ye take heed, as unto a light that shineth in a dark place, until the day dawn, and the day star arise in your hearts: Knowing this first, that no prophecy of the scripture is of any private interpretation. For the prophecy came not in old time by the will of man: but holy men of God spake as they were moved by the Holy Ghost (2 Peter 1:19-21).
