What does the Bible teach about the nature of Christ in worship?

In biblical worship, Christ holds a unique and fundamental role as the sole object of worship. According to Revelation 5, Jesus is the worthy Lamb who has accomplished the work necessary for our salvation. The altar and sacrifices in the Old Testament point to Christ, Himself the perfect sacrifice and priest. Worship must, therefore, be centered around Him, acknowledging His merit, sacrifice, and ongoing presence among His people. This recognition informs our understanding of how to worship truly, ensuring that all that we do in worship reflects the glory of Christ rather than becoming mere ritual or tradition.
