1689 CONFESSION, CH. 22, "OF RELIGIOUS WORSHIP & THE SABBATH DAY," PARA. 6: ITS APPROPRIATE LOCALE
SUMMARY: Worship in the New Covenant is no longer tied to the ceremonial law, and therefore it's no longer tied to the tabernacle, or temple. Instead, the place of God's special presence is the believer. This is the case when he/she is alone, in the home, or together with the local church. Worship is now to be done "in the spirit," in families daily, alone in our inner rooms, and regularly in fellowship with brothers and sisters in church. "Worship's Locale," is wherever the church is.
