The Right Way to Worship God

MOST religions claim that they teach the truth about God.  But that is not possible, because religions teach very different things about who God is and how we should worship him.  How can we know the right way to worship God?  Jehovah is the only one who can tell us how we should worship him.

Jehovah has given us the Bible so that we can learn the right way to worship him.  So study the Bible and Jehovah will help you to benefit from his teachings, because he deeply cares for you. - ISAIAH 48:17. 

Some people say that God accepts all religions, but that's not what Jesus taught us. He said:  "Not everyone saying to mew, 'Lord, Lord,' enter into the Kingdom of the heavens.  but only the one doing the will of my Father."  So it is necessary for us to learn what the will of God is and then do it.  This is a serious matter because Jesus compared people who do not obey God to criminals,"workers of lawlessness." -MATTHEW 7:21-23. 

Jesus warned us  that when we do the will of God, we will face challenges.  He said: "Go into through the narrow gate, because broad is the gate and spacious is the road leading off into destruction, and many are going through it; whereas narrow is the gate and cramped the road leading off into life, and few are finding it."  (Matthew 7:13, 14)  The cramped road, or the right way to worship God, leads to everlasting life. The spacious road, or the wrong way  to worship God. leads to death.  But Jehovah does not want anyone to die.  He gives everyone the opportunity to learn about him. - 2 PETER 3:9.
