Biblical Worship that Transforms

"To think of God as he is, that is, as the Bible reveals him to be, the true believer cannot help but begin to worship; and worship is the single most powerful force in completing and sustaining the transformation and sanctification that is God’s great agenda for our lives....

"For real worship puts into abeyance every evil tendency in every dimension of our soul….and such worship naturally arises from thinking rightly about God on the basis of revealed truth."

-- Dallas Willard, "Renovation of the Heart" (p.107) [2 Cor.3:18; Rom.12:1-2]
