Thanks Rhizo for the correction.I just took offense to the statement he made about the bible condemning outward expression.That goes against the acts of praise and although he was speaking about prayer in most circumstances the two are related they are both different ways to address God and are intertwined.
EvF I have demonstrated that through the scriptures themselves that God loves to be praised even when you pray and silently express your gratitude to him you are praising God.The biblical God is very vain and loves attention.We are supposed to live in a spirit of thanksgiving for everything he has done for us.
Bringing it to the N.T. Jesus did not seem to mind the praise either when he made his so called triumphant entry into Jerusalem riding on an ass.
Matthew 8:9,10
8.And a very great multitude spread their garments in the way; others cut down branches from the trees, and strawed them in the way.
9.And the multitudes that went before, and that followed, cried, saying, Hosanna to the son of David: Blessed is he that cometh in the name of the Lord; Hosanna in the highest.

There is nothing people will not maintain when they are slaves to superstition
