Worship in Spirit and Truth
The first function of the Church is worship.
We worship God separately as individual members and corporately, as the gathered body of believers in Christ.
We worship for a variety of reasons:
Because God is worthy of our worship
Because God wants us to Worship Him
Because lost people need to see us worship Him
Because we need to worship for our own well-being
We must be careful to guard against worshipping a false idea of God rather than almighty God Himself.
