This book masterfully defines, explains, and defends the Reformed principle of worship — the regulative principle. Moreover, the principle is not left in the realm of theory. The application of the principle in the context of modern evangelical life is developed, especially how to implement the regulative principle in congregations who do not yet fully understand or embrace this biblical principle. This is a must-read for those seeking to bring reformation to the worship of the local church.
God cares how we worship Him, so we should care too!
This book offers a clear defense of the regulative principle of worship, arguing that Scripture itself sets the boundaries for how God is to be worshiped in the church. It begins with a straightforward overview of Christian worship before explaining the regulative principle as the biblical guide that shapes and governs what the church does when it gathers. The book then turns to understanding and applying the principles of accommodation and Christian liberty.
The authors build their case from careful work in Scripture and then trace how this understanding of worship has been taught and defended throughout the Reformed tradition and in historic confessions. Particular attention is given to Baptist writers and pastors, showing how this conviction has been understood and worked out in Baptist church life.
The result is a focused, accessible study that connects biblical teaching with the history of the church and the practical question of how God’s people should worship today.

“This book presents a defense of the regulative principle. The authors defend its solidly and thoroughly biblical character and give a history of its defense in the context of Reformed biblical exegesis and historic confessions. The result of this careful work is a clearly biblical and theologically sound presentation of the regulative principle of Christian worship.”
Dr. Tom J. Nettles | Author, Founding faculty member of the Institute of Public Theology, and Retired Professor of Historical Theology, SBTSand SBTS
“I commend the reading of this book to students, pastors, and the people in the pew to restore biblical worship to that which is commanded by God instead of invented by man’s desires. After all, the best worship of God must be formed by His own commands concerning His worship.”
Dr. Fred Malone | Author, Pastor Emeritus of First Baptist Church of Clinton, Louisiana and Professor of Pastoral Theology, IRBS and CBTSand CBTS.
