| | Christian worship - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | Thus, unity in Christian worship was understood to be a fulfilment of Jesus' words that the time was at hand when true worshippers would worship "in spirit and in truth" (John 4:23). | | | Throughout most centuries of Church history, Christian worship has been primarily liturgical, characterized by formal, set prayers and hymns done in a particular order according to specific rituals, whose texts were rooted in, or closely related to, the Scripture, and particularly the Psalter. | | | A great deal of emphasis was placed on the forms of worship, as they were seen in terms of the Latin phrase lex orandi, lex credendi ("the rule of prayer is the rule of belief")—that is, the specifics of one's worship express, teach, and govern the doctrinal beliefs of the community. |

| | Christianity - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
| | Christianity is a monotheistic religion that recognizes Jesus as its central figure and founder. | | | Christianity is sometimes termed an Abrahamic religion, along with Judaism and Islam (see Judeo-Christo-Islamic), and more recently, the Bahá'í Faith. | | | Christianity, as such, teaches that it is impossible for people to completely reform themselves, but that moral and spiritual progress can only occur with God's help through the gift of the Holy Spirit, who indwells all faithful believers. |

| | Tantrik Worship and Christian Liturgy |
| | The spirit of the worship of `Mother Goddess' in the Sakta system of Tantrikism is reflected in the superior worship or `Hyperdulia' of the Blessed Virgin in the Roman Church, even though the Church does not accord her the status of a goddess. | | | As the Christian Liturgy speaks of the presence of the Lord in the Eucharist, the Preisdent and the Church, the Tantriks also hold that Divinity is present in the Enlivened Image, the Officer and the Temple. | | | The systole and diastole of Tantrik Worship are enacted in the Temple as those of the Liturgy performed in the Church. |

| | In Search of an Acceptable Christian Corporate Worship |
| | The worship provisions of the Hebrew Scriptures are presented as an expression of the covenant relationship established by God between himself and Israel. | | | Worship should remain faithful to the principles of God's revelation and to the example of the early church. | | | Since the worship of the one, true God is initiated by God and is toward God, it is important to ask the question of what form of worship is acceptable to him. |

| | What is Christian Worship? |
| | In worship we focus on God: on hearing a message based on the Bible, on prayer, and on the sacraments. | | | The one aspect of worship which is most specific to Christianity is the sacraments. | | | For many Christians, worship is at the heart of our relationship with God, both as individuals and a community. |

| | Christian Worship |
| | Music is used in the worship of God, but it should not be confused as the act of worshipping God (except for perhaps musicians who may express their honor and reverence to God through their instruments). | | | Therefore, true Christian worship must be in the presence of God (Christ). | | | Historically worship was not associated with the Christian church meetings. |

| | Zacharias Ursinus on Christian Worship |
| | Because, by such a mingling of the true worship of God with that which is false, the true God is confounded with idols, which are honored in the forms of worship invented by men. | | | This includes a voluntary renunciation and contempt of all religion, and of the worship of God both internal and external, or of some portions of it, and is, therefore, not only in opposition to this commandment, but to the whole worship of God as prescribed in the first and second tables. | | | For when God condemns the principal, the grossest and most palpable form of false worship, which is that of worshipping him at or by images, it is plainly manifest that he also condemns at the same time all other forms of false worship, inasmuch as they all grow out of this. |

| | Is It Appropriate to Worship Jesus? : Christian Courier |
| | A divine being, i.e., one who possesses the nature of deity, is worthy of worship. | | | When the Lord entered the boat, these men “worshipped him, saying, Of a truth you are the Son of God” (Mt. 14:33). | | | It is not surprising that some cultists, who deny the deity of Christ, should eschew the worship of the Lord. |

| | Bible Basics 8 - Christian Worship |
| | In Lesson 7 we noted the varieties of worship that abound, and concluded that God was particularly jealous about how and when He - the one and only true God - wanted to be worshipped Now we turn specifically to the religion of Jesus Christ. | | | Certainly when we look at the world of Christianity today its worship bears little resemblance to the worship that Jesus and his fellow countrymen took part in. | | | They came into the church of God over the centuries as theologians added to the Word of God which was "once for all delivered to the saints". |

(Ephesians 1:10). | | | The name we selected for this site, "Kingdom Worship", reflects our hope and belief that, although the Kingdom of our God is not yet come in fullness on the earth, we can strive to be "kingdom minded". | | | The Kingdom is the rule and reign of God, and it starts here and now, with us, even in small things like the songs we sing. |
