Subject: The Root of Worship |
Bible Note: "So I believe it can be shown biblically that all our behavior should be motivated by a a deeply freeing taste of God's goodness and a thirst for more and more satisfaction in God. Therefore, the root of Christian living and the root of congregational praise are the same, which is why for Paul worship simply cannot be merely or even mainly thought of in terms of Sunday services but of all of life. His is an absolutely God saturated vision of Christian existence. When our whole life is consumed with pursuing satisfaction in God, everything we do highlights the value and worth of God, which simply means that everything becomes worship. May God make Himself -- manifest fully in Jesus Christ -- that precious to us." --John Piper |
