John 4.19-2419 "Sir," the woman said, "I can see that you are a prophet. 20Our fathers
worshiped on this mountain, but you Jews claim that the place where we
must worship is in Jerusalem."
21 Jesus declared, "Believe me, woman, a time is coming when you will
worship the Father neither on this mountain nor in Jerusalem. 22You
Samaritans worship what you do not know; we worship what we do know,
for salvation is from the Jews. 23Yet a time is coming and has now come
when the true worshipers will worship the Father in spirit and truth, for they
are the kind of worshipers the Father seeks. 24God is spirit, and his
worshipers must worship in spirit and in truth."

What Is Worship?
Contents of these lyrics are about worship
But they can and might make us feel uncomfortable
Nothing is vulgar
But could certainly challenge the idea of worship
Sunday mornin' wake up early,
Skip church service to find my Jesus.
I know it sounds so sacrilegious,
But I just don't belong in a place like that.
I love the cause but not the act.
'Cause Jesus was a friend and not a judge.
He loved the sinners as much as he loved the little ones.
That man was love and not an act.
I sing Hallelujah;
Hallelujah, I'm set free.
Sunday mornin' wake up early,
Skip church service to find true meaning.
I know it sounds so disappointing,
But I just don't belong in a place like that.
I love the cause but not the act.
I sing Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah;
Hallelujah, I'm set free.
Malachi 1.10-1110 "Oh, that one of you would shut the temple doors, so that you would
not light useless fires on my altar! I am not pleased with you," says
the LORD Almighty, "and I will accept no offering from your hands.
11My name will be great among the nations, from the rising to the
setting of the sun. In every place incense and pure offerings will be
brought to my name, because my name will be great among the
nations," says the LORD Almighty.
Malachi 1, mc 1.6-2.9, vv. 1.10-11
