Strange Fire: Who Decides How We Worship?

Who determines how God should be worshiped—God Himself, or those who worship Him? In this message, we examine the sobering account of Nadab and Abihu to discover why true worship must be shaped by God’s Word rather than human preferences, traditions, or inventions. We also explore the biblical foundations and practices of worship, emphasizing the central truth of the Gospel: sinful people can approach a holy God only through Jesus Christ, whose sacrificial death and perfect righteousness make our worship acceptable to Him. Finally, we consider how genuine worship extends beyond Sunday gatherings to encompass every aspect of the Christian life, as we seek to glorify God with reverence, gratitude, and joy.
