True Worship
With so much attention on worship these days (the right place, time, and style), one would expect to see greater spirituality among Christians and greater spiritual impact in our culture. Sadly, that is not the case. Perhaps this is because so much of what passes for worship today is not true worship.
In his book The Knowledge Of The Holy, A.W. Tozer put it this way:
“The low view of God entertained almost universally among Christians is the cause of a hundred lesser evils everywhere among us. With our loss of the sense of majesty has come the further loss of religious awe and consciousness of the divine Presence. We have lost our spirit of worship and our ability to withdraw inwardly to meet God in adoring silence.”
He goes on to note that our moral practices and inward attitudes cannot rise above our ideas about God. “If we would bring back spiritual power to our lives”, he writes, “we must begin to think of God more nearly as He is.”
I invite you to join us each Sunday during the coming months as we study True Worship from Scripture, and seek to “think of God more nearly as He is”.
