One is to allow worship to degenerate into a me-cnanical me-cnanical rite. For example, it is possible for one to eat the Lord s Supper while meditating upon matters other than the death of Christ. It is possible to sing hymns with the lips while the heart is far from God. It is possible to say a prayer without actually praying. When we are guilty of these faults, we do not truly worship. A lack of complete consecration is often responsible for this condition. To worship in spirit is to put out of one's mind everything of the world, and to completely center the heart upon things spiritual. Some fail to worship God in spirit because they mistake mis-take appreciation of the beautiful for worship. The human .'motions are pleased with beautiful music, but the enjoyment en-joyment oi the melodious strains of a spiritual song does not constitute worship. One may leave the place of worship wor-ship feeling comforted because of the spiritual atmosphere which he has enjoyed. Eut while this is most desirable, nich a sensation does not of itself constitute worship if it has not not been accompanied by a heart in tune with God. Neither can the proper attitude of worship be found where there is a lack of reverence. Reverence is the profound pro-found respect which we hold for G Oil It i a ennrlitirin rf heart which expresses itself in our outward actions. Without With-out reverence one cannot worship God in spirit. SCHEDULE OF SERVICES 10 a. m. Bible Study 'Jundy 11 a. m. Worship Sermon Subject: 1 " Hei How Ye Hear" 6:30 p. m.
