Kajian Teologis Tentang Penyembahan Berdasarkan Injil Yohanes 4:24
Journal Title: UNKNOWN - Year 2015, Vol 13, Issue 1
Abstract
The purpose of this article is to understand the meaning of worship based on John 4:24, the theological implication concerning worship and the attitudes and the manner of worshipping the Father in spirit and in truth. True worship from a biblical viewpoint is worshipping the true God with a spirit that is renewed by the Holy Spirit and living in accordance with the truth of God, that is, to know Jesus personally as the Living Water. The implication for biblical theology is that God is Spirit, so God is worshiped in spirit (the inner being that is renewed by the Holy Spirit), and not only worshiped outwardly, in a physical manner. It is God alone that should be worshiped by human beings, there is no other. In practice believers should worship God with a right attitude that is renewed by the Holy Spirit and live in concordance with His righteousness. The attitude of true worship is an attitude of the heart that glorifies the Lord because of His sacrifice that saves, where believers worship the one and only Savior and tell the world about Him.
