Worshiping God in Spirit and Truth
John 4:23

 


John 4 vs 23 - worship in Spirit and Truth

Worship is the true heart of the Kingdom of God. 

But the hour is coming, and now is, when the true worshipers shall worship the Father in spirit and truth, for the Father seeks such to worship Him.  God is a spirit, and they who worship Him must worship in spirit and in truth.

John 4 vs 23 and 24

Worshiping in truth, means true worship. Vital for worshiping in truth, ie offering true worship in the experience of Kingdom of God, modern Christians have neglected their body.  Their Spiritual Body.


True Worship - in the Holy Spirit

Our body  is not just flesh and blood,

And I say this, brothers, that flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom of God..

1Corinthians 15:50 

True worship is the same as true love, and in true Agape love it reaches its climax in the marriage supper of the lamb, the bridal chamber.

It is the bridal chamber where we open our bodies completely to God.

I beseech you therefore, brothers, by the mercies of God to present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, pleasing to God, which is your reasonable service (worship). 

Rom 12:1

This is the true worship that you should offer, and it is done in the spirit not in the flesh.

If we have been reborn in Christ we have a Spiritual Body.  We must function within our spiritual body, it is the vehicle through which we love one another and worship God.

Our spiritual bodies are composed of  the fruit of the Holy Spirit, the Virtues. (See Spiritual Bodies in Kingdom Definitions for more on this)

Here is the Key to worshipping God in Spirit and Truth, for those with ears to hear:

God is Spirit. In worshipping in our true bodies which are spirit, we open our love, (the fruit of His Spirit in us) to God in awe of his fulness of love.  It is only love that can worship His Love.  

So too, we open our joy, (the fruit of His Spirit in us) to God in awe of his fulness of joy.  We open our gentleness, (the fruit of His Spirit in us), to God in awe of his fulness of gentleness....

Of course it is impossible to open in this way unless we first understand that God is Good, and He is only Good.
