[T]he worship of God means following God’s moral dictates. Obeying God’s commands is what worshiping God means. When one truly appreciates this, the question arises of who really believes in God. Vast numbers of people—both within and outside of religion—say they believe in God. But if belief in God means living according to God’s moral dictates, how many people actually believe in God, even allowing for inevitable transgressions that all—including the finest—human beings will engage in?
