Joshua 24:14-15 "‘Now, therefore, fear the LORD and serve Him in sincerity and truth; and put away the gods which your fathers served beyond the River and in Egypt, and serve the LORD. 15 If it is disagreeable in your sight to serve the LORD, choose for yourselves today whom you will serve: whether the gods which your fathers served which were beyond the River, or the gods of the Amorites in whose land you are living; but as for me and my house, we will serve the LORD.’"

It is a poor worship to move our hats, not our hearts. Thomas Adams You think you serve God by coming to church; but if you refuse to let the Word convert you, how should God be pleased with such a service as this?.... Every time you hear, or pray, or praise God, or receive the sacrament, while you deny God in your heart and remain unconverted, you do out despise Him, and show more of your rebellion than your obedience.... God bids you come to church and hear the Word, and so far you do well; but withal, He charges you to allow the Word to work upon your hearts, and to take it home and consider it, and obey it. Richard Baxter We may be truly said to worship God, though we want perfection; but we cannot be said to worship Him if we want sincerity. Stephen Charnock In public worship all should join. The little strings go to make up a concert, as well as the great. Thomas Goodwin

1 Peter 2:9-10 "But you are A CHOSEN RACE, A royal PRIESTHOOD, A HOLY NATION, A PEOPLE FOR God's OWN POSSESSION, so that you may proclaim the excellencies of Him who has called you out of darkness into His marvelous light; 10 for you once were NOT A PEOPLE, but now you are THE PEOPLE OF GOD; you had NOT RECEIVED MERCY, but now you have RECEIVED MERCY."

All in the church may hear the Word of Christ, but few hear Christ in the Word. George Swinnock Take heed of drowsiness in hearing; drowsiness shows much irreverence. How lively are many when they are about the world, but in the worship of God how drowsy.... In the preaching of the Word, is not the bread of life broken to you, and will a man fall asleep at his food? Which is worse, to stay from a sermon, or sleep at a sermon? Thomas Watson Let not Satan persuade us to think the worse of the pure Word of God because of his corruption who delivers it. For what were this but to refuse a comfortable embassage from a gracious prince, because we dislike the qualities of the ambassadors?.... Yea, what is it but to cross our Savior Christ’s express commandment, who commanded all to hear even the Scribes and Pharisees who sat on Moses’ chair, and to do after their words though not after their works?
