PLACE OF WORSHIP
Sunday, March 22, 2020
Romans [ESV] 12:1-3 I
appeal to you therefore, brothers, by the mercies of God, to present your
bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and acceptable to God, which is your
spiritual worship. Do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed
by the renewal of your mind, that by testing you may discern what is the will
of God, what is good and acceptable and perfect. For by the grace given to
me I say to everyone among you not to think of himself more highly than he
ought to think, but to think with sober judgment, each according to the measure
of faith that God has assigned.
Ephesians 4:21-24 assuming
that you have heard about him and were taught in him, as the truth is in
Jesus, to put off your old self, which belongs to your former manner of
life and is corrupt through deceitful desires, and to be renewed in the
spirit of your minds, and to put on the new self, created after the
likeness of God in true righteousness and holiness.
By cooperation
and mandate the church, God’s John 1:12 family, I scattered outside of places
of worship, buildings. Due to my vulnerabilities, caring about flattening the
curve, and the concerned urging of family and friends, due to respondent self-quarantine
I’ve missed 3 Sundays of congregating to worship. And obviously there will be
more absences.
But is worship to
be only on certain day(s) or at specific designed place?
The primary when
and where of worship is spelled out in Romans 12:1-3, meaning that those that
are practitioners thereof and therein are presently and positionally worshipping
whenever and wherever they are. Even doing so while socially isolated.
