Theme: GIVING GOD THE KIND OF WORSHIP HE DESERVES

Text: “Ye worship ye know not what: we know what we worship: for salvation is of the Jews.” – John 4:22.

Comment: For our worship to be acceptable unto God, it must be done in the manner that is pleasing unto Him. This statement of our Lord Jesus Christ in the leading text shows the kind of worshippers we have in the world. “Ye worship, ye know not what” refers to false worshippers who are ignorant, hypocritical and deceived at the instance of Satan the devil. Such ones are worshipping in vain as their worship is unacceptable to God. (Matthew 15:7-9. See also 1 Timothy 4:1-5; 1 John 4:1) Conversely, “We know what we worship; for salvation is of the Jews.” refers to the true worshippers who worship God in spirit and in truth and are spiritually fed by the true pastors. Also, God will give salvation to mankind through Jesus Christ who is from the Jewish race. (Hebrews 7:14; John 3:16) It is therefore imperative for us to worship God in spirit and in truth as this is the kind of worship God deserves and rewards. – John 4:23, 24; Jeremiah 3:15; John 8:31, 32.
