Lesson 6: Vain Worship Vain Worship Our Lord says in Mark 7:7, "And in vain do they worship Me, teaching as doctrines the commandments of men." When we follow the commandments of men instead of God's instructions, our worship becomes vain. If our worship is vain, it is empty, hollow, and useless. It will do us no good. If it is vain, it would be as though we had not worshipped God at all and we will be lost. When we worship in the way "we want" then God is dishonored and insulted. When we worship the way God has told us in His word, God is honored and glorified. As we read in John 4:24, "God is a Spirit, and they that worship Him must worship Him in spirit and in truth." To worship in truth ... We may be sincere in our worship, and we must be, but if we do not worship God "in truth", that is as God directs, then our worship will be vain and unacceptable to God. Also if we try to worship God "in truth" but not "in spirit", that is not with the proper motive of honoring God and with reverence, then we are ... ... https://www.bible.ca/interactive/worship-6-vain.htm

What role does the Holy Spirit in my Conversion? This idea has descended to our age from the old doctrine that man is totally depraved in heart and soul and must have a miraculous spiritual operation to turn him from sin to his Heavenly Father. But the scriptures plainly teach that the Holy Spirit works through the agency of the revealed Word of God! Still, while proclaiming that the manner of the Spirit's working in the Christian age is through the power of the Word, we must not be guilty of thinking the Spirit is not involved in our conversion. Conversion is the process by which man turns from sin to God. It is the "change" from ... A direct operation takes away personal responsibility and accountability. A direct operation of the Spirit would contradict the plain passages of the Bible which tell us the gospel is the power to save (I Corinthians 1:21; Romans 1:16; John 6:44-45).

Encyclopedia Americana ... The oldest surviving fragment of an early Christian liturgical prayer is probably "Our Lord, come" (Maranatha, I Corinthians 16:22; compare Revelation 22:20); it implies that prayer was addressed to the risen, glorified Christ. The Aramaic title Mar or Lord (Greek Kyrios; I Corinthians 12:3) was a term or title regularly used in religious worship. A similar situation existed in the language used of the Holy Spirit. Though at first impersonal (compare Acts 8:15-16, 10:44), as if the Spirit could be referred to as "it," in time the language of Christian preaching, teaching, and worship clearly involved the conception of a divine person. The Spirit from God, sent by God, was also divine, and therefore was God.
