Calvin argues that NT worship is simpler than OT worship. By that he means gathered public collective formal church Sunday worship, by the way, in case you are still bothered about that.
I don’t know how he knows that. It must depend on arguments from silence. If your instinct is to assume continuity between the covenants rather than discontinuity then his case seems less plausible.
And is worship at the beginning of the OT not simpler than worship at the beginning of the NT? In both cases there is growth, maturing, developing, going from one degree of glory to another.
In the New Creation I’m expecting some great colours, lovely aromas, jazzy harmonies and liturgy to blow your socks off.
