Worship

Worship is a time set apart in the week by the Third Commandment – Keep the Sabbath Day holy – is a time to make you holy before the God the Father. Worship means setting apart, cleaning, and bringing you before God the Father through His teachings and sacraments. He brings us into the holy through His body, blood, and words. We treasure this Word and learn of it. In other words, Worship is not something we do for God, but what God does for us and has finished the redemption. We trust in His words given by Christ when He tells us, “There is nothing for you to do to be saved; it is a gift given to you.” Indeed, the first part of Worship is “worth – meaning being shaped, bent towards, or the opposite of (sin).” In Worship, you are cleansed before the Lord. Worship, therefore, is purification of a sinner.
