Presentation transcript:

 Several Greek word families are used in Scripture to communicate the concept of worship. Here, we focus upon: › The verb latreuō, which means “to serve,” and describes the carrying out of religious duties. › The noun latreia, derived from latreuō, refers to “service/worship” that is offered to God.

 It was required in the Temple service of the Mosaic dispensation.  It is required in the Christian service of the Gospel era.  It is not reflected in the misguided service of those who reject the truth.

 The responsibility of faithful service/worship extends beyond this life into eternity (Rev. 7:15-17; 22:1-5).  If you hope to share in the bliss of heaven, you must respect the authority of God/Christ today (Matt. 28:18-20; Col. 3:17).
