Because He is our Master!

I gave you several SCRIPTURES Nick, of examples of worship to the Son.

Nick,Jesus wouldn't be the one to tell us to worship Him. That would be the Father's job through His Spirit within us.

Ya know what Nick,I don't think God wants us to worship as if we were following a command but instead, worship the Father and the Son by being led of our Spirit…a worship from a true heart towards the Father and the Son. It isn't so much taught as it is a natural expression of what is within our hearts towards our Godhead.

Nick,We are not united with the Son as a fellow man, we are united IN the Son. Do you believe that before the Pentecost, the Son of God was ignorant? He would not accept worship as the Son of God before Pentecost or any time unless it were a glory to His Father…I am positive of that. I am also positive that He received worship from His…[Read more]

Do you ever wonder why Jesus did not worship himself? He was not His own God…He was not His own source. OUR situation is different than Him, He only had the Father as His head. We have the Father AND the Son as our head. The Pharisees did not recognize the Son as their head and worshipped only the Father as well. So do we follow the…[Read more]

Ed J,Hello, I assume that the readers of Paul's letter accept the eternal past existence of the Father and that He wasn't among the things in heaven that were created. I have no problem that the readers would understand that the writer is speaking of all “other” things in heaven. The context of chapter one establishes the existence of the Father…[Read more]

JustAskin,So you are not able to show us scripturally that praising and singing are not acts of worship. Most people think that what they do in church involves corporate worship. During all the church services that I have been in, singing and praising God, whether it is the Father or the Son or both, is what the congregation does. There is also…[Read more]

Quote (JustAskin @ Feb. 09 2010,18:46)LU,What does Jesus say concerning 'Worship' in John 4:20-24JustAskin,We should worship God in spirit and truth. The Spirit leads me into worship of the Father and the Son as the Father and the Son but not as a trinity.JustAskin, you have not shown me from scriptures that singing to the Lord and praising Him…[Read more]

Well put William…good post!Blessings,Kathi

Nick,Actions speak louder than words.

Nick,I'm relying not only on Jesus' words but on His behavior too. His behavior was one of acceptance of worship and not refusal…learn from the whole story Nick. See the big picture here. Blind man gets healed by Jesus, the blind man sees, the blind man worships the one who healed him, Jesus receives that worship and says that the one who…[Read more]

Nick,Why not rely on the many examples of worship that was given Him and He did not correct those that gave it?John 9:35-3735 Jesus heard that they had put him out, and finding him, He said, “Do you believe in the Son of Man?” 36 He answered, “Who is He, Lord, that I may believe in Him?” 37 Jesus said to him, “You have both seen Him, and He is the…[Read more]

Nick,Jesus does not exalt Himself…listen to the Spirit and I believe that the Spirit of God will give you a heart of worship towards the Father and the Son.

Nick,Where would the branch be without the vine?  Cling to the vine…you owe your life to the vine…without the vine, you don't even become a branch.  Worship the vine and the vinedresser, not the other branches but of course that is obvious.  I think that you make Christ just another branch to high five.  Would you say “Good job Jesus bra…[Read more]

Not even the…[Read more]
