If we wrong a brother

and then go to worship God in His house

without first reconciling with that brother ...

 

 

 

 

If we wrong a brother and then go to worship God in His house

without first reconciling with that brother (see Matthew 5:23-24),

God might respond to our worship with these words:

 

“What is the point of your numerous acts of worship to me?”

“I am weary of the worship you offer.”

“I do not take pleasure in your worship.”

“Who asked you to bring such worship to me?”

“You are merely treading on the floor of my temple.”

“Stop bringing meaningless offerings of worship.”

“Even your worship has become detestable to me.”

“I cannot endure your assemblies,

for though you gather on Sundays or for religious meetings,

I see the evil you continue to commit.”

“The worship you bring, which I despise,

has become a burden to me, and I am weary of bearing it”

(see Isaiah 1:11-14, Korean Modern Bible).
