Notes:
O Come Let Us Adore Him:
-Latin “Adeste Fideles”
-John Francis Wade (1744), Frederick Oakely (1841)
Adore (verb):
1) To regard with utmost esteem, love, respect, and honor.
2) To pay divine honor to, to worship.
The right response to Christ’s birth is worship.
We are guilty:
-Good worship of a bad god.
-Bad worship of a good God.
Gratitude is the gateway to worship.
Guidelines for worship:
1) Worship with awe.
-Awe (Phobos), reverential fear.
2) Worship with Abandon.
3) Worship with intimacy.
Worship isn’t based on feelings- feelings follow obedience.
