GOOD WORSHIP

Worship has a twofold purpose: 
The worship of God and the sanctification of God's people.

There are four criteria of good worship.

1.   a sense of God's presence, we need more reverence in our worship.
2.  a sense of being a community,

3.  a sense of Tradition, . It is a treasure we share with christians of every age and throughout the world.

4.  a sense of the future.  The future to which we are called is God's future. It is something beyond an entertainment or feel-good model. We are called to carry on the mission of Jesus.
