No one comes to the Father except through me. He emphatically claims that He alone is the sole doorway or entrance into a relationship with God. In John , Jesus desires that our joy be full and in John tells us that no one can take away this joy. You know him, for he dwells with you and will be in you. God raised him up, loosing the pangs of death, because it was not possible for him to be held by it.
Even so. He imputed to me the righteousness of Christ. He adopted me into his family. And he has prepared an eternal future for me with himself.
Why did he do all of that? It was not because of anything that I did. It was simply because he is my creator and he loved me. As my creator, God is indeed worthy of my worship. But how much more worthy of my worship is he because he is also my redeemer and heavenly Father. But how much better if we worship him now. He is our creator, Lord, and redeemer. Our natural response to him should be to mimic the elders and living creatures in Revelation and bow before him,.
Whenever the living creatures give glory, honor and thanks to him who sits on the throne and who lives forever and ever, the twenty-four elders fall down before him who sits on the throne and worship him who lives forever and ever. He has been a Bible teacher for over 40 years and regularly blogs at A Clay Jar. You can also follow him on Twitter or Facebook. Ed is married, the father of two, and grandfather of three. He is retired and currently enjoys his gardens and backpacking.
Share this. Why Should We Worship God? Ed Jarrett Contributing Writer 2 Dec. You were either rich or poor, no in between. Christianity is responsible for a world that even knows how to love. So what makes God so worthy? A love that would offer salvation to anyone who would believe. Jesus was His love and is our love. Not demands it is the sense of a requirement, but rather in the sense of a deep desire. How can we not respond to a love that would save us from ourselves?

To answer your question adequately, we have to understand who God is, why He created the universe, why He created us, and what our purpose is. These are essential questions. Deep down, everyone is seeking the Truth and seeking answers that satisfy the heart and mind.
Even if we try to escape these questions, the truth is, death is a reality, and most people are concerned about what will happen to them after death and what really determines if their lives have been successful and worthwhile before the inevitable death.
You and I can have theories about the answers to these questions. The primary source in our discussion here is the Creator Himself. We need to understand His perspective.
