September 24, 2023 - The Path: Worship

In Matthew 28, we are told that two women—Mary Magdalene and “the other Mary”—go to the tomb of Jesus after his death, where they encounter an angel who tells them that Jesus has risen from the dead. Then, Jesus himself appears to them.  He simply says, “Greetings!” And the women fall down and worship him. Interestingly, the word “worship” is not found often in the New Testament. In the gospel accounts it comes mostly after Jesus has risen from the dead.  It is the culmination of seeing the power and plan of God that cause people to bow down and worship.  As we finish our series on a path of discipleship, may we realize that it after seeing Jesus as he fully is that will lead us to a posture, and a life, of worship.
