A woman/man of virtue is a person highly respected and valued. Therefore the four values you should have are:
1. Understand The Word
As a worshipper in this church one must hold unto the word of God because this the only sword of truth that can uphold us.
The church is also an evangelical Church, so the worshippers therein should be steadfast in the Word.
A Celestial without the word is just like a toothless lion. Digging deep into the word we get daily updates to fill up our reservoir.
2. Understand The Church
A true Celestial worshipper must have the full understanding of the Church, getting the true identity of the Church from Christ, what the church was, is and is meant to be.
Also, knowing the do's and don't of the Church such as it tenets, doctrines, worship etc.
The church is a package prepared by the father and descended into the world as stated in Hymn 176 stanza 1, so we need to unravel the package and key ourselves into its modus operandi.
3. Worship and Attitude
This is a key factor in the modus operandi of the Church. As our hymn states, Iwa re, Esin re, ni yio gbe o de orun, bo dara (Your attitude & worship will lead you to heaven if pleasing) when we worship God in the beauty of holiness, he reveals the glories of heaven to us.
Your level of worship and concentration in it determines or defines your attitude.
Celestial Church has brought one of the acts of heaven to us in the form of "Worship", understanding this as a true factor would put us in a pole position before God.
He then transforms us giving us the necessities to display a godly attitude or character before the world.
4. Seek The Kingdom Of God
True Celestial worshippers are heaven or kingdom seekers, as a Celestial your final destination should be up there with the father so as to continue the act of worship with him.
Channel all your might towards attaining a sit with the father in his kingdom so as to reign with him.
As our Hymn says "Nigbati fere yio dun, emi yio wa nibe (When the trumpet will sound, I shall be there)" this is a statement of assurance but we need to work it out because at the time when He shall come to thrust in his sickle to pick out his beloved there would be no excuse for any faults or complacency, we are expected to and should be among them that would be harvested for good.
