O knihe
You could walk into a bookstore, go to the Christian book section, and find several books written about worship-after all, Christianity and worship go together like the church and salvation. You simply can't have one without the other.
This book is written with the hope of clearing up some confusion and ignorance about how we develop true worship between the saints and the creator of the universe. According to Jesus's words in John chapter 4 in his dialogue with the Samaritan woman at the well, Jesus teaches her. God has always sought from the beginning a people he calls the true worshiper to be his family here through the church and one day in heaven through all eternity. One of the difficulties with the church today, as I see it, is its persistence to follow an erroneous tradition known as going to church on Sunday for worship. The reality is nothing further from the truth. Jesus warned about following traditions of men: "In vain, they do worship me" (Matthew 15:9). Jesus spent much of his time in his earthly ministry disputing with the Pharisees over their traditions which they made binding on the people. Traditions are like habits, once you engage in them they are hard to break. We turn the clock ahead in the spring and back in the fall as a matter of tradition, nothing spiritual about it. But when a spiritual activity is based on tradition, it has no scriptural support for its practice and it can be devastating in its effect on those who practice it.
This book deals with the need to slay the sacred cow, known as going to church for worship. There is no evidence in the book of Acts of the church assembling for worship. Acts reveals much activity about the church but worship is not one of them. This book reveals to the reader the many activities designed by God to bring the saints to a meaningful worship experience and one which is approved by God and one he has been seeking since the foundation of the world. The book is controversial to say the least. Only because tradition has such a grip on the church's lack of understanding of what Jesus meant by true worship, in my opinion. I'm sure your thinking will be challenged and provoked to making some changes in your personal relationship with the one who created you.
Happy reading!
