Its one thing to worship and praise God at the church its quite another to moves out into the real world and worship Him through daily obedience. Do we continue to worship Him by obeying Him in our daily life, looking for opportunities to serves? In (1Samuel 15). We see that Saul was asked by the Lord to do task; but when we review what he did (vv:20,21, 22).we discover that he used worship (sacrifice) as an excuse for his failure to obey God, God's response was, "To obey is better than sacrifice (v. 22).in addition to imitating God (Ephesians 5:1). Believer are to continually Act of love. The phrase translated. "walk in love" is used only here in scripture the greek expression peropatiete en egape refers to continuing in selfless Love." the theme of "walking" refers to a consistent, purposely, practice. This is common topic in in Ephesians. (Ephesians 2:2,10; 4:1,17; 5:8,15). Believer are told look carefully them how yo{u walk. (Ephesians 5:15).The example for how to walk how to live a matter of habit in Christ. The description of Christ in this verse revolves around four themes.
1. First Christ's love mankind
2. Second Christ sacrifice made on our belief
3. Third this sacrifice is describe as a "fragrant" offerring. This refer to the idea of sweet-smelling offering in the tabernacle temple.
4. Fourth, Jesus gave His life for us as a sacrifice to God both for our God and as an Act of worship to the Father. The book of Hebrew develops this theme in greater detail showing that Christ offered in one-for all sacrifice as as result believer in Jesus are no longer bound by the sacrifice of the JEW Law (torah) but are instead bond to christ.
