In worship members express their faith in God and their love for Christ. Faith here means the sum total of all the church agrees to be true and real of God's nature, words and works. These are expressed in songs of praises; confessed in prayers, taught in sermons and teachings and lived in everyday life.   From the beginning, God's "{His} intent was that now, through the church, the manifold wisdom of God should be made known to the rulers and authorities in the heavenly realms, and according to his eternal purpose which he accomplished in Christ Jesus our Lord. In him and through faith in him we may approach God with freedom and confidence (Ephesians 3:10-12).
