This consists in praising and adoring God for what He is, as revealed to us in Christ. Christian worship, in contrast to Jewish, is in spirit, not in outward ritual, and in truth. Worship consists in an outflow from the heart, and hence is in contrast with teaching which consists in receiving truth into the heart. The one is giving, the other getting. Hearing discourses, therefore, however good, cannot properly be called worship. The Lord’s Supper is a very fitting occasion, though not the only one, for worship. All worship is rendered to God by saints whose position is in the holiest (Heb. 10), and as acceptable to God by Christ.
