How do we know that Christ is the only object of worship?

Answered in 2 sources

The Bible consistently teaches that only Christ is to be worshiped, as angels themselves are commanded to worship Him.

In Hebrews 1:6, it is proclaimed that all angels of God are to worship Christ, establishing Him as the only object of divine worship. This is reinforced in Revelation 19:10, where an angel instructs John not to worship him but to worship God alone. This sets a clear distinction between the created beings, namely angels, and the Creator, Christ, who is fully God. Scriptural revelation points to the understanding that true worship can only be directed toward God in the Person of Jesus Christ, affirming His unique position in creation and in the salvation of humanity. Hence, any attempt to worship angels undermines the supremacy and unique mediatorial role of Christ.
