Bible Note: Wayne, greetings. I have studied worship and see it missing. The word for worship is from the Greek proskuneo. Please read my post (and the thread) on what it means: What is worship, according to the Bible? "God is spirit" indicates the nature of the Godhead, as is "God is Light" (1 John 1:5), "God is Love" (1 John 4:8). Notice the word must ... there is no opition. When we worship - acknowledging the vast differences between us and God, our spirit must be involved. It is not just the physical prostration. Plus, we must believe in our minds and hearts He is the true God. It takes the whole person to worship. This is missing from the church, in general, today. We have redefined worship. Searcher |
