The New Testament never refers to Christian assemblies as times of worship. Yet, modern church practice makes worship the primary aim of our gatherings. What did the word “worship” mean in the context of the New Testament? Do the original Greek words translated as “worship” align with our modern practices? Dr. Tom Wadsworth’s research challenges our assumptions and shows how key Greek terms convey something deeper.  As in prior posts in this series, we’ll examine another such term, leitourgeo, rendered as “worship” or “serve.” Understanding its biblical connections to the temple reveals a more precise meaning, rooted in priestly service.
