"We all, with unveiled face beholding as in a mirror the glory of the Lord, are being transformed into the same image from glory to glory, just as from the Lord, the Spirit." 2 Cor. 3:18

Worship

I noticed something interesting regarding worship for the first time in the One Year Bible reading the other day.  Genesis 4:26 (NLV) says,

"When Seth grew up, he had a son and named him Enosh.  It was during his lifetime that people first began to worship the Lord."

Then, Genesis 5:3 informs us that Adam was 130 years old when he had Seth.  And, Genesis 5:6 records for us that Seth was 105 years old when his son Enosh was born.  So, do the math!  That's 235 years that people apparently weren't worshiping God!

Now we know that Cain & Abel offered sacrifices.  But, that form of worship seems to be differentiated from that mentioned in Genesis 4:26 above.  Interesting!  Definitely worth pondering!
