Why is public worship the most like heaven?

Answered in 1 source

Public worship mirrors heaven by uniting the church body in collective praise and worship of God.

Public worship is described as the most analogous experience to heaven because it allows the entire church to gather together in one accord, focusing on worshiping the Lord. Just as the redeemed will be in unity in heaven around the throne of grace, public worship brings believers together for the same purpose—glorifying God. The collective experience of praising God and hearing His Word is a taste of the eternal joy and fellowship that believers anticipate in heaven. This gathering exemplifies the familial bonds among Christians as they lift their voices together in adoration, a practice that will continue eternally in the presence of the Lamb.
