▶ 경배/예배 Worship. 

The worship of God has been described as 'the honour and adoration which are rendered to Him by reason of what He is in Himself, and what He is to those who render it.' It is pre-supposed that the worshipper has some relation with God, and that the order of service or worship is prescribed. The Israelites had been redeemed out of Egypt by God, and thus as a ransomed people could draw near to His appointed place to worship according to His order. The Psalmist could say, "O come let us sing unto the Lord: let us make a joyful noise to the rock of our salvation . . . . for the Lord is a great God, and a great King above all gods . . . . O come, let us worship and bow down: let us kneel before the Lord our maker. For He is our God, and we are the people of his pasture, and the sheep of his hand." Ps. 95:1-7.

(시065:01-07 (다윗의 시, 영장으로 한 노래) 하나님이여 찬송이 시온에서 주를 기다리오며 사람이 서원을 주께 이행하리이다 기도를 들으시는 주여 모든 육체가 주께 나아오리이다 죄악이 나를 이기었사오니 우리의 죄과를 주께서 사하시리이다 주께서 택하시고 가까이 오게 하사 주의 뜰에 거하게 하신 사람은 복이 있나이다 우리가 주의 집 곧 주의 성전의 아름다움으로 만족하리이다 우리 구원의 하나님이시여 땅의 모든 끝과 먼 바다에 있는 자의 의지할 주께서 의를 좇아 엄위하신 일로 우리에게 응답하시리이다 주는 주의 힘으로 산을 세우시며 권능으로 띠를 띠시며 바다의 흉용과 물결의 요동과 만민의 훤화까지 진정하시나이다   

The worshippers could not enter God's sanctuary in O.T. times: their place of approach was its outer courts; and even the priests, except once a year, went no further than the holy place. All this is now changed: redemption has been wrought, the veil has been rent from top to bottom, God has come out, and worshippers, as priests, have boldness for entrance to the holiest. God has been revealed in the counsels of His love as Father, and the Holy Spirit has been given. The language of the Psalms therefore is hardly fitting for Christian worship, because of the nearness into which the believer is brought. In the millennium the people will not have access in the same sense: the true figure for the Christian attitude is that of the priest, not that of the people.

They that worship God must worship Him in spirit and in truth, and the Father seeketh such to worship Him. John 4:24. They delight in what He is: they "joy in God," and they love Him. To worship 'in spirit' is to worship according to the true nature of God, and in the power of that communion which the Holy Spirit gives. It thus stands in contrast to worship consisting in forms and ceremonies, and to the religiousness of which the flesh is capable. To worship 'in truth' is to worship God according to the revelation which He has been pleased to give of Himself. It would not therefore now be worshipping God 'in truth' to worship Him simply as 'a great God,' 'our Maker,' and 'a great King above all gods,' as in Psalm 95; for He has been pleased to reveal Himself in another light, even as 'Father' to those who are His. They enter into His presence in the spirit of sonship, and in the sense of the love which has given them a place before Him in Christ, as sons according to His good pleasure: the sense of this love, and of the good pleasure of God in having us before Him in Christ, is the spring of worship. The Father and the Son are known, the Father's will is that the Son should be honoured as revealing the fountain of love, and the Son leading the hearts of the many sons into the Father's love. Worship is thus distinguished from ascriptions of praise and thanksgiving: it is the homage of love. Rom. 8:15.

(요04:24. 하나님은 영이시니 예배하는 자가 신령과 진정으로 예배할지니라 

(시095:1-11 오라 우리가 여호와께 노래하며 우리 구원의 반석을 향하여 즐거이 부르자 우리가 감사함으로 그 앞에 나아가며 시로 그를 향하여 즐거이 부르자 대저 여호와는 크신 하나님이시요 모든 신 위에 크신 왕이시로다 땅의 깊은 곳이 그 위에 있으며 산들의 높은 것도 그의 것이로다 바다가 그의 것이라 그가 만드셨고 육지도 그의 손이 지으셨도다 오라 우리가 굽혀 경배하며 우리를 지으신 여호와 앞에 무릎을 꿇자 대저 저는 우리 하나님이시요 우리는 그의 기르시는 백성이며 그 손의 양이라 너희가 오늘날 그 음성 듣기를 원하노라 이르시기를 너희는 므리바에서와 같이 또 광야 맛사의 날과 같이 너희 마음을 강퍅하게 말지어다 그 때에 너희 열조가 나를 시험하며 나를 탐지하고 나의 행사를 보았도다 내가 사십년을 그 세대로 인하여 근심하여 이르기를 저희는 마음이 미혹된 백성이라 내 도를 알지 못한다 하였도다 그러므로 내가 노하여 맹세하기를 저희는 내 안식에 들어오지 못하리라 하였도다 

(롬08:15. 너희는 다시 무서워하는 종의 영을 받지 아니하였고 양자의 영을 받았으므로 아바 아버지라 부르짖느니라
