consists in the outpouring of the heart in adoration and thanksgiving because of what god is and what he has done in show ing grace to sinful mankind such worship can only be the outcome of a heart that knows god and is enjoying fellowship with him elaborate rituals and beautiful music are not worship no matter how pleasing they may be to the senses true worship and holiness of life go together the psalmist bids us worship the lord in the beauty of holiness psa 292 ki9 worship to be acceptable to god must be in accordance with his revealed truth they that wor ship the father our lord told the samaritan woman must do so in spirit and in truth john 121 of old the prophets insisted on piety toward god and uprightness of life before men as an absolute necessity to real worship forms and ceremonies even though divinely commanded became meaningless and even obnoxious to god no matter how venerable when divorced from practical righteousness isaiah sought to impress upon the consciences of the people of israel and judah the primary importance of practical godliness on the part of those who would draw nigh to jehovah the infinitely holy one zeal for ancient customs and outward show was obnoxious to god if divorced from integrity and con scientious devotion to the word of the lord nothing else will take the part of those who would have access to god as worshippers in the new testament worship is of a far higher and more spirit ual character than in former dis pensations ft is based upon revealed truth regarding the mani festation of god in christ the historical sotting isaiah prophesied at a time of great declension in judah seeking to call his people to selfjudgment and repentance from their careless lives and haughty selfconfidence he lived over seven hundred years before christ our lords interview with the samaritan woman took place when he was on the way from jerusalem to galilee in the early part of his ministry the epistle to the colossians was written by paul after his arrest at jerusalem and during his imprisonment either at maesarea as some authorities think or else at rome as others believe verse by verse isa 111 to what purpose is the multitude of your sacrifices unto me god himself had com manded tha these sacrifices be offered but when the people rested with smug satisfaction in these outward ordinances while overlooking the importance of reality in their lives the very offerings became obnoxious to him and he found no delight in them verse 12 who hath required this at your hand they were substituting sacrifices for righte ousness whereas these very offer ings were ordained as an acknow ledgement of their sinfulness and need of divine mercy heb 103 they were never designed to take the place of uprightness in the lives of those who would draw near to god verse 13 it is iniquity even the solemn meeting the most sacred religious rites and cere monies are hateful to god when those who profess to worship him live in unjudged sin and bring dishonor upon his holy name by their unholy lives thus manifest ing the fact that they have never known the reality or regeneration titus 35 or if ever born of god have fallen into a sadly back slidden condition verse 14 your appointed feasts my soul hateth in these special religious days they profess ed to honour god and to remem ber with gratitude his works of old or his more recent deliver ances but they had degenerated with his cold formal and vain repetitions may think he will be heard for his much speaking but no prayer is acceptable to god that is not the utterance of one who has been born again and is endeavoring to walk before god in holiness and righteousness verse 10 wash you make you clean while no man can purge his own soul from sin god nevertheless calls upon all men everywhere to repent that is to change their attitude toward him toward self and toward sin it is only as grace works in the soul that one can purge himself from all filthiness of the flesh and spirit perfecting holiness in the fear of god 2 cor 7 1 so god called his people of old to judge themselves in the light of his word and to put away all known evil in order that they might draw nigh to him verses 16e 17 cease to do evil learn to do well what this involves is set forth clearly in the rest of the verse they were com manded to deal honestly with their brethren to show com passion toward the needy and relieve the distressed there is no merit in so doing but such actions would indicate sincerity of heart toward god john 1 1 1 perceive that thou art a prjphet this was but another way of saying i acknow ledge that i am a sinner she recognized the fact that she was in the presence of one who spoke with divine authority verse 20 this mountain or jerusalem she was con cerned as to where to go in order to meet with god she used the word worship in its lower sense as covering every form of religi ous exercise where should she go with her sinoffering in order to get right with god verse 21 neither in this mountain nor yet at jerusalem we have here a twofold revela tion jesus reveals god as the father of all who seek his face in sincerity he also sweeps away the former conception of special sacred places to which one must go in order to worship god accep tably see deut 12 verse 22 salvation is of the jews it was through the jews that christ had come and to them god had given a divine revelation of his will the samaritan system of religion was built upon unauth orized traditions verses 23 21 worship in spirit and in truth the age of types and shadows was rapidly coming to an end god henceforth must be worshipped in accordance with the truth revealed in jesus christ this worship is of a spirit ual character and needs not liturgical or ritualistic rites and ceremonies it is the overflowin adoration of grateful and loving hearts god is a spirit and it is as our hearts rejoice in him and our him that we are able to worship him acceptably col 3 1g let the word of christ dwell in you richly the more we read and meditate upon the holy scriptures the more will our hearts rejoice in him and our lives become lyrical with praise and thanksgiving the heart of the lesson it is so easy to go along the line of least resistance and to suppose that god will be satisfied with church attendance sacramental observances and lip service while sin remains unjudged and god is dishonored by the careless dis solute lives of those who profess his name but it is vain to count upon his acceptance of the out ward forms of worship if the heart be far from him he demands reality in those who profess to worship him and are called by his name when christ is known in reality and loved in sincerity wor ship will not be merely formal but will be the spontaneous expression of a loving heart ale 4fou ftutvf lop p licet fat youi poultfty arnold farms pay top prices for live or dressed poetry piant grading station on no 7 highway at don mills road for
