When we look around the Christian world we see an almost unlimited number of forms of worship. We come to church each Sabbath to worship God. In this sermon Mr. Smith asks us what does it mean to worship God? In John 4 Jesus says we must worship God in spirit and in truth and not according to the traditions of men. And we are also warned not to mix the truth of God with the ideas of men. Our worship is to be WHEN and HOW God commands. The Bible tells us that true worship includes such things as: humility, submission to God, giving thanks for our blessings, and singing praises to God. These things are commanded by God for our good so that we will fulfill the purpose for which we were created and for the purpose we have been called in this age. Worship on the Sabbath and holy days keeps us on the right road to salvation.
