FCF: The human's natural inclination to worship disorder (valuing created things over the Creator Himself) which leads to greed or even rejection to Christ.

Worship is not just about the act of service. It goes beyond and is reflected in our thoughts, decisions, and actions. What we value the most shows in our life. If our hearts are captured by the things of the earth, we reveal worship disorder. But when our eyes are fixed on Jesus Christ, that He is our ultimate treasure, our lives reflects genuine worship. True worship is not limited on Sundays but is seen in our daily choices that honor God above all else.

As I read the story of the Perfume and Worship Disorder, I saw both the Fallen Condition Focus and the Redemptive Message. Worship disorder is when people give priority to the second tablet of the Law (love for others) while neglecting the first tablet (love for God). This disorder distorts how we see both people and possessions, leading to a misplaced and disordered worship. But in the story, we also find the remedy: when we see Jesus as our Lord and Savior, our worship is restored. True worship in Christ gives us freedom from the grip of money and moves us to genuine care for the poor.

Central Idea : Worship Disorder

According to this article, worship disorder is a human act of prioritizing the second law of tablet and taking for granted the first tablet of law which is about loving God. This attitude show the misleading

Worship disorder occurs whenever a human heart weighs the love of either people or created things more than loving God first. Neglecting the first table of the law, means our love for others also becomes disordered in the process. Thus true worship places God at the center and from there can flow good love for others.
