Can we worship Jesus?

CAN WE WORSHIP  JESUS?

First of all, think about this ... What kind of 'other gods' do you think we are NOT to have before the Father? We will answer this further down the page.

It is clear that the Bible says Jesus can be worshipped, from what we read in Hebrews 1:6 and  Worship Jesusother verses. But how can we who believe the Father is the "only true God", worship both the Father and His Son, without breaking the first commandment? The answer is simple. Jesus isn't just some 'other god', as the Father dwells in His Son and has ordained that His divine Son is the only way for us to get to the Father. Jesus said ... "I am THE WAY, the truth and the life, no man cometh unto the Father, BUT BY ME." (John 14:6)

Think you are a human because your mam and dad were.So Jesus should be God  like God because God was Jesus' father so Jesus is worthy of prase.Did you see that? The Father is the 'source of all things', which makes Him the 'only true God'. But it is by and through His Son Jesus that all things consist, and we are by whom? The Father only? No, by Jesus in the Father. So this is how it works. The tide of love and blessings comes from the Father, THROUGH His Son to us. And then that returns in praise and worship THROUGH the Son, to the Father.

Do you see how it works? This is how God ordained it. ALL things are done through His Son, and ALL worship is to go back through Christ to the Father. Which means that to worship God the Father, the worship must go through Jesus for it to be acceptable to the Father. Look at what Jesus said below:

John 5:22-23 ...'For the Father judgeth no man, but hath committed all judgment unto the Son: That all men should honour the Son, even as they honour the Father. He that honoureth not the Son honoureth not the Father which hath sent him.'

So we are to honor Jesus, even as we honor the Father. You cannot have one without the other. You cannot worship the Father without the Son, or the Son without the Father. Because as Jesus said ... "I and my Father are one." (John 10:30, John 14:10). This does NOT mean they are one person, as some people like to think. The Father and His Son are TWO separate individuals. But they are so closely united by a bond that humanity cannot fully comprehend yet at this time, that we worship them "as one." You cannot have one without the other.

As long as we acknowledge the Father as the 'only true God', being the 'source of all life' (John 17:3, 1 Cor.8:6), and acknowledge Jesus as the literal, divine Son of God the Father (Romans 8:3, John 3:16-17), then we are not breaking the first commandment by honouring and worshipping both. It is the Father's will for us to honour His dearly beloved Son and has ordained that ALL THINGS be done through Christ, including worship of God.

We are COMPLETE in Christ (Colossians 2:10), because the Father fully dwells in His Son (Colossians 2:9) and has given ALL things unto His Son.

So are trinitarians or 'oneness' believers ok, because they worship Jesus too? No, because they reject the Father as being the 'only true God' and they reject Jesus Christ as being the literal Son of the one true God. Therefore, according to 1 John 2:22-23, they reject BOTH the Father and His Son. The trinity god and 'oneness god' are false gods. They are not the true Godhead of the Bible. So by worshipping a 'Jesus' who is NOT the literal Son of God, they are worshipping a different Jesus and following a different gospel. And if you are worshipping a different Jesus from the scriptures, then you are not worshipping the Father either, because He will not accept worship through a 'different Jesus'. He will only accept worship through HIS SON ... "no man comes to the Father but by me."

Do you believe that the Father is the 'only true God'? Do you believe that Jesus is the literal, divine, begotten Son of the one true God? Then the Father will accept your worship of His Son, as the Father dwells in His Son and will accept nothing from us, unless it is given THROUGH Christ.

Ephesians 1:17-23 ...'That the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, may give unto you the spirit of wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of him: The eyes of your understanding being enlightened; that ye may know what is the hope of his calling, and what the riches of the glory of his inheritance in the saints, and what is the exceeding greatness of his power to us-ward who believe, according to the working of his mighty power, which he wrought IN CHRIST, when he raised him from the dead, and set him at his own right hand in the heavenly places, far above all principality, and power, and might, and dominion, and every name that is named, not only in this world, but also in that which is to come: And hath put all things under his feet, and gave him to be the head over all things to the church, which is his body, the fulness of him that filleth all in all.'

Revelation 5:11-13 ...'"And I beheld, and I heard the voice of many angels round about the throne and the beasts and the elders: and the number of them was ten thousand times ten thousand, and thousands of thousands. Saying with a loud voice, worthy is the Lamb that was slain to receive power, and riches, and wisdom, and strength, and honour, and glory, and blessing. And every creature which is in heaven, and on the earth, and under the earth, and such as are in the sea, and all that are in them, heard I saying, blessing, and honour, and glory, and power, be unto him that sitteth upon the throne, AND unto the Lamb for ever and ever." Amen
