Yahusha accepted worship from his disciples!
by Rav Sha'ul

Now concerning the rest of the scriptures that appear to demonstrate that Yahusha was worshipped; I will just lump them all together and give you the reason behind it. First, let me say that we are commanded to worship in Spirit (to Yahuah) and in (the) Truth (Yahusha is the truth and the way). So true worship of Yahuah is coming to Him by the example of the true way. That is coming to Him through Yahusha by proxy.

John 4:24

24 Yahuah is spirit, and his worshipers must worship in the Spirit and in truth.”

John 14:6

6 Yahusha answered, “I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through (in covenant with) me.

Next, I want to point out that the word translated "worship" is a word used to describe the act of bowing down which in many cases is not the intent of "worshipping Yahuah" or Divine Worship; but rather recognizing a superior in rank or messenger of Yahuah. In the case of bowing down before a messenger of Yahuah, those that bow are not worshipping the messenger. They are bowing down recognizing the messenger "comes with the power and authority of Yahuah" giving Yahuah glory through the messenger… this would be an example of worshipping Yahuah in Spirit with the understanding that Yahusha is the true way to Him. It is a fine line but Yahusha understood that line as I will demonstrate.

Before I go any further let me say that bowing down to Yahusha as the anointed proxy of Yahuah and anointed King of Yahuah's Creation and the "Truth of Yahuah" is not divine worship it is respect. I have no problem with this type of “respectful worship (bowing down to)” with the understanding of Yahusha's superior position in the Kingdom as well as the power and authority of Yahuah given to Yahusha as "The Truth and the Light” of Yahuah. I have no problem with and do not see that act as a violation of Yahuah's revealed will nor proof that Yahusha is Yahuah as long as the Spiritual Intent of that act is righteously directed toward Yahuah through Yahusha the proxy.

Paul does not say that every knee shall bow to Yahusha; it is before Yahuah that every knee shall bow in worship. Yahusha is the Judge not The Creator. We stand before Yahusha, we hit our knees before Yahuah:

Romans 14:10-11

For we shall all stand before the judgment seat of the Messiah. 11 For it is written in Isaiah 45:23: “As I live, says Yahuah, Every knee shall bow to Me, and every tongue shall confess to Yahuah.” ¹²So then each of us shall give account of himself to Yahuah.

Yahuah looks at the "Spiritual Intent" not the physical act alone. One person could "bow down" to Jesus in an act of Godly worship while another can "bow down" to The Messiah Yahusha in an act of recognizing his superior position and by proxy give worship to Yahuah. One would be justified, the other in idolatry.

However, a witness to those two people both bowing down would not know the "intent" of their heart and describe both using the same word in Hebrew and Greek/Latin. So those words describe both physical acts of Divine Worship and reverence to authority.

Next: Worship of Yahusha is not divine worship
