3. A call to worship:
Worship in Heaven
Worship on Earth
False worship
United in worship:
Studying the Scriptures
Communion and prayer
God is worshipped by heavenly beings, and He is eager for
our worship from Earth too.
To worship God means to acknowledge His greatness and
majesty, to understand that He is the Creator and we are His
creatures, and to admit our own unworthiness, helplessness
and dependency on Him. It also involves accepting God’s
control on our lives.
4. To worship the Lord is to give Him the glory
and honor He deserves.
Heavenly worship is an act of gratitude for
everything God has done: “for You created
all things […] and with your blood you
purchased for God persons from every tribe
and language and people and nation.”
(Rev. 4:11; 5:9 NIV).
The sacrifice of Jesus is the heart of worship.
The heavenly beings worship God because He
has redeemed us. We should also worship
Him and give Him thanks for our redemption!
In worship we give to God adoration,
reverence, praise, love, and obedience
because we believe that He is worthy to
receive them.
5. • Those who have not
accept the eternal
Gospel will fear this
message
• Those who have
accepted the Gospel
will admire and
respect God. We will
“have boldness in the
day of judgment”
(1 John 4:17)
Fear God,
because He
judges the world
• This is an allusion to
the fourth
commandment
(Exodus 20:8-11)
• The final crisis will
revolve around
worship: worship
either God or the
dragon
Worship the
Creator
The last message from God to mankind
has two parts:
6. Satan has wanted to be worshipped like god
since his rebellion (Isaiah 14:13).
He tempted Jesus to
worship him as the
prince of this world
(Matthew 4:8-9).
In the End Time, Satan
will try to force everyone
to worship him through
the beast and its image,
under death penalty
(Revelation 13:14-15).
7. We can compare the false adoration in the End Time to the
experience of Daniel’s friends.
TRUE WORSHIP
(DANIEL 3)
FALSE WORSHIP
(REVELATION 13-14)
“We do not serve your
gods, nor will we
worship the gold image
which you have set up.”
“who worship the
beast and his image.”
“Then [they] were cast
into the midst of the
burning fiery furnace.”
“[They] shall be
tormented with fire
and brimstone.”
“[God] delivered His
servants who trusted in
Him.”
“and they have no rest
day or night, who
worship the beast and
his image.”
8. We may worship God in private, but worship is
mainly a community action.
Our voices join in songs of worship like the angels’.
We also worship God when we study His Word
together.
By studying the Bible, we
learn about what God has
done for us, how we should
live from now on and the
Second Coming of Jesus.
The more we study the
Scriptures, the more
encouraged we are to worship
our Creator and Redeemer
together.
9. “And they continued steadfastly in the apostles’
doctrine and fellowship, in the breaking of bread,
and in prayers.” (Acts 2:42)
The Church is united in one doctrine, and we must spend
time together, encouraging one another and
remembering the teachings of Jesus. Then our unity is
strengthened in Christ.
To worship God (Acts 4:24)
For receiving power (Acts 4:30)
For solving our issues (Acts 12:12)
For other’s wellbeing (1Tim. 2:1)
For the preaching of the Gospel (Eph. 6:19)
Praying together is another important aspect of
Church. What should we pray for together?
10. “The church of God below is one with the church
of God above. Believers on the earth and the
beings in heaven who have never fallen constitute
one church. Every heavenly intelligence is
interested in the assemblies of the saints who on
earth meet to worship God. In the inner court of
heaven they listen to the testimony of the
witnesses for Christ in the outer court on earth,
and the praise and thanksgiving from the
worshipers below is taken up in the heavenly
anthem, and praise and rejoicing sound through
the heavenly courts because Christ has not died
in vain for the fallen sons of Adam.”
