BACK  More studies will be added to this list in future days if the Lord wills.       Several studies listed above are on the "hot" topic of Worship -- how, where, and when should Christians worship? These are identified by the "W" number series to the right of each. The heart of our worship is addressed in study 51 by Cecil Hook. He's pointing out that our meetings should have both horizontal and vertical applications. We pray to God -- that's vertical. We share in the Remembrance Meal -- that's vertical and horizontal. Our songs are generally horizontal as they should be -- we sing to one another, often about our love for God as we give praise to Him.       The entire concept of "a worship service" is where our PROBLEM is. Please be sure to go to and study Viewpoint #51 if you're concerned about pleasing God and want to be in unity with other Christians! Go to top CLICK box to send an e-mail comment to Ray...
