INTRODUCTION:

1. “O Worship the Lord in the beauty of holiness” (Psalm 96:9)

1) This ability is what we are endeavoring to produce in each one of us in this series of studies.

2) We want to develop in every one of us a deeper appreciation for worship – for true worship.

2. In our last lesson we set out to define and describe true worship. True worship:

1) Ascribes worth to God – “worship” = worthship.

2) Is to be done in reverence.

3) Arises from the heart overflowing with gratitude.

4) Is reinforced with godly living.

5) Involves the entire person.

3. True worship, as seen in the fragrance prepared for the worship of God in Old Testament times and noted in our last lesson (Exodus 30:34-38), is reserved for God alone – thus, true worship is to be unique.

Introduction:

1. In our series, we have noted Jesus’ church: The promise to build (Matt. 16:18), and its reality (Acts 2:47).

2. The church is the Lord’s body (Col. 1:18). He is its Head, and the Head regulates the body. We set forth the idea that the New Testament contains a church pattern.

I.   The Scriptures Themselves Set Forth The Idea Of A Pattern.

A. All we know, authoritatively, of the church is found therein.

B. And, the Scriptures are inspired of God, to furnish us completely unto every good work (2 Tim. 3:16-17).

1. Obeying the gospel is a good work — an essential one (2 Thess. 1:7-9).

2. In obeying, the Lord adds one to the church (Acts 2:47).

INTRODUCTION:

A. Why are you a member of the church of Christ?

1. If you are not a member of the church of Christ, why are you a member of the religious organization that you are?

2. Is it because that was the one your Dad and Mom were members of?

3. Is it because that is the one closest to your home?

4. Is it because it has the nicest building in town?

B. If our neighbor were to ask us why we were a member of the church of Christ, could we give them a sound reason?
