How Not to Worship

Matthew 6:1-18

Is there a wrong way to worship? I believe that there is and it is all about attitude. In this passage Jesus is instructing his hearers about how they should worship God. He addressed three of the prominent forms of Jewish piety: alms, prayer, and fasting.

Worship Together

Why can we even worship? How do we have access to God? Do we even need other people? The writer to Hebrews answers these questions in Hebrews 10:19-25. His argument has been building that Jesus Christ is much better than anything in the old Mosaic Covenant. He, in fact, fulfills this covenant and initiates the New Covenant. Let's see where he goes with this argument.

Worship in Heaven

Could you imagine if we could see God every time we worshiped on Sunday? That would truly be an awesome experience. I think our worship would take on a more serious and joyous nature if we actually saw God seated upon his throne every Sunday morning. Yet, John the Apostle did see worship in heaven taking place and he wrote about it for us in Revelation 4:1-5:14.
