Pastor Josh explores the evolution of worship and the relationship between God and humanity, beginning with the intimate fellowship of Adam and Eve in the Garden of Eden. It highlights how sin led to a separation from God, resulting in humanity’s struggle to reach Him through laws and sacrifices, particularly illustrated in the narratives from Exodus. The fear experienced by the Israelites at Mount Sinai symbolizes the limitations of human mediation and the law. In contrast, he emphasizes the hope offered through Jesus Christ, who fulfills the law and grants direct access to God. It contrasts Mount Sinai, associated with fear and the law, with Mount Zion, representing grace and the new covenant established by Christ. True worship is described as transcending physical locations and rituals, emphasizing that it should be done in spirit and truth, accessible to all. Ultimately, worship is portrayed as an ongoing expression of gratitude and praise, rooted in the believer’s relationship with God through Christ.
