\u00a0II.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 THE CELEBRATION BECKONING US \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/strong><\/h4>\n

 <\/p>\n

4 essentials about true worship:<\/p>\n

1.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 True worship is the worship (of God alone<\/strong><\/span>).<\/p>\n

2.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 True worship is the acknowledgment of (God\u2019s attributes<\/strong><\/span>).<\/p>\n

3.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 True worship is (ceaseless<\/strong><\/span>).<\/p>\n

4.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 True worship is best when it is also (done with others<\/strong><\/span>).<\/p>\n

\n

The words they use:<\/p>\n

1)\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 \u201cHoly, holy, holy\u201d- The ultimate. (Sets Him apart from all others<\/strong><\/span>).<\/p>\n

2)\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 \u201cLord God, the Almighty\u201d- three-fold name for God.<\/p>\n

3)\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 \u201cThe one who was and is and is to come\u201d- expresses the idea of (divine infinity and sovereignty<\/strong><\/span>) over history.<\/p>\n

To summarize: God is (holy<\/strong><\/span>). God is (sovereign<\/strong><\/span>). God is (eternal<\/strong><\/span>).<\/p>\n
