The Lord loves the gates of Zion more than all the dwellings of Jacob. --Psalm 87:2  Public worship has fallen on hard times. In our individualized age, there is little we value doing communally, especially when there is an alternative that can be tailor-fit for our personal wants and preferences. Thankfully, David Clarkson helps us understand the superior privilege of public worship and the responsibilities believers have as they engage in it. He compellingly argues that the glory of God demands the corporate worship of His people. Moreover, public worship is not simply something we should do; it is something we should love. Read this book and learn to prize the ordinary means of grace as God's precious gifts to His people.

    Clarkson gives a deeper appreciation of scripture

    As Jonathan Cruse says in the preface, “The glory of God demands the corporate worship of his people. ” And that worship should be a joy and privilege to us.

    “The Lord is most glorified when his glory is most declared, and it is most declared when it is declared by most, by a multitude. ”

    - This is a good argument for the congregational participation in the liturgy

    Clarkson makes the argument that God prefers public worship over private worship. Not that private worship should be neglected but that there is a special glory in the publicity and corporate-ness of the Lord’s day gatherings. God is more fully displayed in public worship in a way that private devotions cannot replicate. It is also even more beneficial to us in its mutual upbuilding and protection against apostasy.

    “Esau was stigmatised as a profane person for preferring the stew before his birthright, but those who prefer the things of the world before this singular prerogative of worshipping God in public exceed Esau in profaneness. What a special privilege it is! How few are those in the world who enjoy it! Does the Lord grant this honour so as to have it and himself in it despised?”

    - it ought to cause disgust in us when people choose sport over worship. When people adjust when and where they go to church based on the convenience of ‘not loosing the whole day’ in order to be able to fill it with worldly pleasures instead. Will you rob God?

    Clarkson gives a deeper appreciation of scripture and what it says…
