  4. How to Worship God in Truth ContinuingStudy on Worshipping God John 4:20-24

  5. Review – Worshipping God in Spirit • It is An Inner Worship • It is An Attitude • It is Consuming

  6. What is Worship? True worship, real devotion does not consist in the performance of certain religious duties at set times, but in the spirit in which the ordinary duties of common life are performed. William Law

  7. Most People Have a Problem with the Truth • Pilate did (John 18:33-38) • Christianity is not a “cunningly devised” fable we are following(2 Peter 1:16-19) • God’s Word “IS” truth (John 17:17) • The Bible is proven by the fact that so many work so hard at corrupting it (2Corinthians 2:17)

  8. The Two Sides of Worship • Worshipping in Spirit – internal, right attitude, consuming • Worshipping in Truth – worshipping according to God’s way, the true way • Both are related – both are two vital halves of worship that must be balanced

  9. The Meaning of Worshipping in Truth • It is God’s way of worship – How He expects us to approach Him • To worship God in truth means to worship Him in sincerity, in reality – not faking it, or just going through some traditional motions or rituals • It means: no hypocrisy, no guile, not something that is guessed at, but obeyed from the heart! • Our worship is limited strictly to how the Bible says to worship God – any other way is of the devil!

  10. The Truth About Right Worship • True Worship is Simple (2Corinthians 11:2-4) • True Worship is Real (Matthew 15:25). • True Worship is of the Saviour (Philippians 2:5-11) • True Worship is Serious (Psalm 2:10-12) • True Worship is Humbling (Micah 6:8) • True Worship is Clean (Psalm 29:2) • True Worship is Tested (1John 4:1) • True Worship is Thankful (Psalm 100)

  11. Conclusion • Worship for too long has been the domain of… • “It’s just how we do it” • “Whatever feels good, do it” • “Whatever works for you” • That’s not what Jesus is promoting in John 4:24 – there most definitely is a right way and a wrong way to worship God • There are limits placed on how we are to worship • Those “limits” are what make worship real, and effective – which is what God deserves!
