How do we know faith is necessary for true worship?

Answered in 1 source

Hebrews 11:6 states that without faith it is impossible to please God, highlighting the importance of faith in genuine worship.

The necessity of faith in worship is foundational in Scripture, made evident through the examples set forth in Genesis 4 by Cain and Abel. Faith is depicted in Hebrews 11:4, which states that Abel's offering was accepted because it was made in faith, demonstrating that true worship must be rooted in a sincere relationship with God. In contrast, Cain's offering lacks this necessary faith, highlighting that God desires worship that acknowledges human sinfulness and the need for atonement through faith in Him. Romans 10:17 emphasizes that faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the word of God, making clear that a true approach to worship must be informed by God's revelation.
