One of the great things about Passion was the corporate worship - to be able to see & hear 4000 people from around the world from Africa, America and Asia coming together. Someone once wrote that although we as Christians may have different beliefs in certain areas, worship unites the body of Christ in praise of the very same God. Jesus prayed, "that they [the church] may all be one as we [the Trinity] are one", and so it will be in heaven when we all join together to praise God without end.

Why do we worship? It's not because we're such good people, but because we realise and remember what Christ did on the cross, and this is just one form of expressing our gratitude and our response to His work that accomplished what we ourselves could never do.

So many times we sing and talk about the cross, but we sometimes forget the other important fact - it didn't end there! Christ died for our sins on Calvary, but rose on the third day. If He did not, then we are worshipping a dead god -- but we know He did rise, and hears each word we sing to Him.
