Bible Note: I was jus looking for a place to put this, just got it today. :) Greetings Bible Enthusiasts! Two questions for today: --What is worship? Worship is simply praising God in spirit and truth (John 4:23). We worship in spirit when we worship from the heart and not merely with external formalities. We worship in truth when our worship is consistent with biblical principles. An excellent way to worship God is to extol His character and works as told to us in Scripture and to acknowledge His gracious works in your own life. You can include Scripture reading, prayer, singing, or even celebrating the Lord's Table. You can worship alone or in a group. The main thing is that your worship flow from a heart of praise. --Why do we worship on Sunday? Christians worship on Sunday for several reasons: --Christ arose on Sunday, so the early church chose that day to celebrate His resurrection. --The Old Testament Sabbath day (Saturday) was a day of rest for Israel. The Christian's Sunday is more than a day of rest - it's a day to remember Christ's resurrection. --Keeping the Sabbath is the only one of the Ten Commandments that isn't repeated in the New Testament. --The New Testament indicates that the early church met for corporate worship on the first day of the week (Sunday). That's the pattern in the book of Acts and the implication in other parts of the New Testament (such as 1 Corinthians 16:2). Although Sunday worship follows the New Testament pattern, nothing is particularly sacred about the day itself. For believers, worship should occur every day, of course! |
