Worship Feelings?

Worship Feelings?












Truth

Reality

Christianity

What are these? How do we know?

The Bible

The Christian life

Christian worship

What are these? How do we know?

The Bible

This makes it simple. Christianity is defined by the teachings of Jesus and His apostles in the New Testament.

Consider this article about "modern Christian worship" written by Marsha West

"Worship is legitimate when it is done according to the instructions He has given us for it …

God is spirit, and those who worship him must worship in spirit and truth. John 4:24

In our emotions-driven western culture, many Christians over-spiritualize this verse by incorrectly inferring the Lord is suggesting a mystical, experiential foundation to worship. Hardly.

To be “filled with the Spirit” is to be filled with His Word. The Word drives our faith and directs our worship. What we feel or don’t feel is thoroughly irrelevant to authentic worship. Warm fuzzies don’t mean you just really worshipped. It’s not about you
."

These Christians(?) do not know worship.
