Sermon Notes
Worship God
Revelation 22:8-9
- Revelation 22:9; “Worship God!”
- 1 Corinthians 14:23 Speaks of “the whole church gathering together.”
- Acts 2:46 Speaks of the early church “attending the temple together and breaking bread in their homes.”
- Hebrews 10:25 Speaks of “not neglecting to meet together.”
- 1 Corinthians 14:25 where the unbeliever falls down at the power of prophecy and confesses God is in the assembly.
- Mark 11:17; When he wove a whip and drove out the money changers, the reason he gives is not for the sake of proper sacrifices but for the sake of prayer for all the nations.
- Mathew 12:6; “Something greater than the Temple is here,” referring to himself.
- John 2:19; “Destroy this temple and in three days I will raise it up”.
- Mark 14:58; 15:29; This attitude to the temple not only got him killed, but it also got Stephen killed (Acts 6:14).
- John 4:20–24; Jesus loosens worship from its outward and localized connotations. Place is not the issue: “neither in this mountain nor in Jerusalem.” But Worship in Spirit and Truth.
- (Matthew 15:8–9). When the heart is far from God, worship is vain, empty, non-existent. The experience of the heart is the defining, vital, indispensable essence of worship.
- Exodus 23:24; “serve,”.
- Romans 1:9; “I serve [or: worship] God in my spirit in the preaching of the Gospel.”
- Philippians 3:3 Paul says that true Christians “worship God in the Spirit of God . . . and put no confidence in the flesh.”
- Romans 12:1 Paul urges Christians to “present your bodies as living and holy sacrifices acceptable to God which is your spiritual worship.”
- Hebrews 13:15. The praise and thanks of the lips is called a “sacrifice to God”.
- Hebrews 16:15; But so are good works in everyday life
- Romans 15:16; Paul calls his own ministry a “priestly service [of worship]” and he calls the converts themselves an “acceptable offering [in worship]” to God; Philippians 2:17.
- Philippians 4:18; He even calls the money that the churches send him “a fragrant aroma and acceptable sacrifice to God [in worship]”.
- 1 Timothy 4:6; And his own death for Christ he calls a “drink offering to God”. 1 Corinthians 10:31. Colossians 3:17.
- Colossians 3:16. Place and form are not of the essence. Spirit and truth are all-important
