Why are we a peculiar people as KJV says in 1 Peter 2:8 (special, unusual)
Our Faith is based on knowledge, conviction, confidence, obedience.
Today I want to point out it’s how and where we worship. John 4:24
In the OT it was all physical – how and where , 2 Samuel 5:7; 2 Kings 19:31
OT Prophecy concerning the new covenant:
Psalm 2:6-7; Isaiah 2:1-3; Micah 4:1-4; Joel 2:28; 3:16; Zechariah 14:16-17, 21; Hebrews 12:22-24; Revelation 14:1; Job.1:6; 2:1
5 Acts of Worship:
Lord’s Table – Acts 20:7; 1 Corinthians 11:20
Prayer – Hebrews 4:16; 1 Timothy 2:8
Singing – Colossians 3:16-17
Sermon – Song of Songs 6:2-3, 12-13; 7:1,11-12; Matthew 18:20; 1 Timothy 4:13
Collection – 1 Corinthians 16:1-2
Fellowship – the end result of our gathering together, reason we encourage one another as we see the day approaching.
We are a peculiar people not only because of our complete faith based on knowledge, conviction, confidence, obedience but because of the way we worship – in spirit and in truth at Mount Zion in heavenly Jerusalem. And our acts of worship LT with Christ; Praying to the Father, singing with thankfulness, studying with diligence, giving sacrificially, fellowshipping collectively.
