Authorized Worship
There is definitely strange fire offered up as authorized worship of God! In John chapter 4 we have the story of the Samaritan woman who thought she knew God!
22 Ye worship ye know not what: we know what we worship: for salvation is of the Jews.
23 But the hour cometh, and now is, when the true worshippers shall worship the Father in spirit and in truth: for the Father seeketh such to worship him.
24 God is a Spirit: and they that worship him must worship him in spirit and in truth.
The Samaritans had received the five Books of Moses; but dismissed the Prophets and the prophecies which pointed to Christ coming and preceding the Jewish form of worship which was acceptable to God until Christ came. Also they had added idol worship to their worship of God whose paganism disannulled their worship!
The woman at Jacob’s well was lost and Jesus wanted to save her and the Samaritans!
He wants everyone to come to saving grace in him so that they may have authorized and accepted worship!
True worship is based in the truth of the New Testament; then it will be in the Spirit of God! Why?
Because we are washed in the blood and filled with the Spirit and know him personally! Brethren, there is only one God!
4 There is one body, and one Spirit, even as ye are called in one hope of your calling;
5 One Lord, one faith, one baptism,
6 One God and Father of all, who is above all, and through all, and in you. Ephesians 4:4-6
Where the Spirit of the Lord is there is liberty based in unity and our community in Christ! Brethren there is one Spirit but different styles which people worship the Lord! It’s only when Christians allow demonized based music is when worship becomes unauthorized worship! He will not allow sacred worship to become tainted and will not accept it! Even though most music is neutral there is some which is truly born and anointed of the devil!
Brethren let us always worship the Lord in Spirit and Truth!
