| Is it okay to go to a secular nightclub and dance and fellowship with friends? Is it forbidden in the Bible? |

There is no direct prohibition on dance and fellowship in the Bible; however, the Bible does direct the Christian to “be separate from the world while living in it.” Going to a nightclub is not acceptable Christian behavior for the following reasons: 1. Self-deception: you are tricking yourself by thinking that you and your friends can handle the various “attractions” present in a nightclub.

Others-deception: you are sending a message to the world that Christianity supports the sort of lifestyle that you’re living. Does the music and activity of a night club have any redeeming value?
