To answer the title question effectively requires more than the
citing of a few texts; we must first acknowledge that the way to
the answer is more difficult than it appears and recognize that the
answer may be less straightforward than many would like. The author
raises some fascinating yet vexing questions: What is worship? Is
the fact that worship is offered to God (or a god) what defines him
(or her) as "G/god?" What does the act of worship actually involve?
The conviction that God exalted Jesus to his right hand obviously
is central to Christian recognition of the divine status of Jesus.
But what did that mean for the first Christians as they sought to
reconcile God's status and that of the human Jesus? Perhaps the
worship of Jesus was not an "alternative "to worship of God but
another "way "of worshiping God. The questions are challenging but
readers are ably guided by James Dunn, one of the world's top New
Testament scholars.
