S2E4: Every Knee Shall Bow: Divine Worship or Honoring God’s Messiah?

In this episode, we ask a pressing question: When believers bow to Jesus and confess Him as Lord, are we affirming His co-equality with God, or honoring the one God has exalted as Messiah? We’ll explore how Scripture uses “worship” to show reverence not just for the Creator, but also for those chosen and empowered by Him—such as kings, prophets, and Jesus Himself. We’ll discuss Philippians 2:10–11, Hebrews 1:6, and Revelation 5, weighing whether this worship makes Jesus God, or rather highlights His divinely appointed authority. Join us as we tackle the nuances between bowing in acknowledgment of God’s exalted servant and worshiping the Almighty Himself.
