8 Then Abraham said to his young men, Stay here with the donkey; the boy and I will go over there; we will worship and then we will come back to you. ח ו ה (Genesis 22:5) (ḥā wā(h)): to bow down, prostrate oneself before superior in homage before God in worship before false gods before angel Worship as submission to God
9 if the LORD will indeed bring me back to Jerusalem, then I will worship the LORD in Hebron. (2 Sa 15:8) (ʿā ḇǎḏ): ע ב ד - to labour, work, do work. - to work for another, serve another by labour. to serve as subjects. - to serve (God). - to serve (with Levitical service). - to make oneself a servant. Worship as service to God
10 So your children might make our children cease to worship the LORD (Jos 22:25) (yā rē(ʾ)): י ר א to fear, revere, be afraid to stand in awe of, be awed to fear, reverence, honour, respect to cause astonishment and awe, be held in awe to inspire reverence or godly fear or awe Worship as reverence for God
11 Old Testament Concepts of Worship Reverence Submission Respect
12 Great, thanks. The time is coming when the true worshipers will worship the Father in spirit and truth, and that time is here already. John 4:23 προσκυνέω [proskuneo] to kiss the hand in token of reverence to fall upon the knees and touch the ground with the forehead as an expression of profound reverence kneeling or prostration to do homage homage shown to men and beings of superior rank to the Jewish high priests; to God; to Christ; to heavenly beings; to demons Worship as submission to God
13 a promise that our twelve tribes hope to attain, as they earnestly worship day and night. (Acts 26:6-7) λατρεφω [latreuō] (& λειτουργέω [leitourgeō]) - to serve for hire - to serve, minister to (gods or men) - to render religious service or homage - to perform sacred services, to offer gifts, to worship God in the observance of the rites instituted for his worship Worship as service to God
14 A certain woman named Lydia, a worshiper of God, was listening to us (Acts 16:14) σέβω (σέβομαι) [sebō (sebomai)] to revere to worship To be devout Worship as reverence for God
15 Biblical Concepts of Worship Old Testament Reverence Submission Respect New Testament Reverence Submission Respect What s the difference (if any) between OT and NT worship?

17 The Jesus Factor Address God as Father, based on Jesus relationship to God Enter into Jesus intimacy with God Worship Jesus as God Jesus promised worship in spirit and truth Jesus sends the Holy Spirit
18 Woman, believe me, the hour is coming when you will worship the Father neither on this mountain nor in Jerusalem. You worship what you do not know; we worship what we know, for salvation is from the Jews. But the hour is coming, and is now here, when the true worshipers will worship the Father in spirit and truth, for the Father seeks such as these to worship him. God is spirit, and those who worship him must worship in spirit and truth. John 4:21-24

20 Worship in the Early Church Key Components Preaching & Teaching Creeds & Confessions Hymnody & Paraenesis (ethical / moral exhortations) Lord s Supper Liturgical Elements Prayer Abba Lord s Prayer Amen Doxologies Maranatha Hallelujah Prayer & fasting
21 Taking Stock Underlying Biblical Principles Reverence, Submission, Service The Jesus Factor New paradigm Early Church Key components, liturgical elements Order, spontaneity, freedom No divine blueprint
22 The Horizontal Dimension Let the teaching of Christ live in you richly. Use all wisdom to teach and instruct each other by singing psalms, hymns, and spiritual songs with thankfulness in your hearts to God. Col 3:16, NCV And do not get drunk with wine, for that is debauchery, but be filled with the Spirit, addressing one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing and making melody to the Lord with your hearts,... Eph 5:18-20, ESV
23 Psalms, Hymns & Spiritual Songs Some commentators: Psalms = OT psalms Hymns = songs of the church Spiritual Songs = spontaneous Spirit-inspired songs Other commentators Words can be used interchangeably
24 1 I will exalt you, LORD, for you lifted me out of the depths and did not let my enemies gloat over me. 2 LORD my God, I called to you for help, and you healed me. 3 You, LORD, brought me up from the realm of the dead; you spared me from going down to the pit. 4 Sing the praises of the LORD, you his faithful people; praise his holy name. 5 For his anger lasts only a moment, but his favour lasts a lifetime; weeping may stay for the night, but rejoicing comes in the morning.
25 15. He is the image of the invisible God, The firstborn over all creation, 16. For in him all things were created, In heaven and on earth, Things visible and invisible, Whether thrones or dominions, principalities or powers, All things were created through him and for him; 17. And he is before all things, And in him all things hold together.
26 18. And he is the head of the body, the church. He is the beginning, The firstborn from the dead, In order that he might be pre-eminent in everything, 19. For in him all the fullness was pleased to dwell, 20. And through him to reconcile all things to him, Whether things on earth or in heaven, By making peace through his blood shed on the cross.
27 Sing to the Lord with all of your heart Sing of the glory that's due to his name Sing to the Lord with all of your soul Join all of heaven and earth to proclaim You are the Lord The Saviour of all God of creation we praise you We sing the songs That awaken the dawn God of creation we praise you
28 Sing to the Lord with all of your mind With understanding give thanks to the King Sing to the Lord with all of your strength Living your lives as a praise offering You are the Lord The Saviour of all God of creation we praise you We sing the songs That awaken the dawn God of creation we praise you Written by Stuart Garrard (c) 1994 Kingsway's Thank You Music
29 Our Response Expect the Holy Spirit to speak through all elements of our worship Be open to the spontaneous Sing to the Lord, but also to each other Equip and encourage the next generation Approach worship With reverence for God In submission to God In service of God
