Again, the devil
took him to a very high mountain, and showed him all the kingdoms of the world
and the glory of them; and he said to him, "All these I will give you, if
you will fall down and worship me." Then Jesus said to him, "Be gone,
Satan! for it is written, 'You shall worship the Lord your God and him only
shall you serve.'" Then the devil left him, and behold, angels came and
ministered to him. Matthew 4:8-11
“There is one main truth that I want to urge from this
text, namely, that worshiping God is the duty of every human being. The basis
of the truth is this: if the very Son of God counts it his duty to obey the
command to worship God, then how much more must we count it our duty to obey
this command!” -John Piper
