    Just change the word “worship” to “love” and then think about your question a bit more....  What’s the point of loving anyone?  Say like your parents, your children, your spouse, etc.?    Worship isn’t exactly the same as love, but the thoughts that are brought to mind may be similar....

    There is none.  It's pointlessly giving reverence to either an imaginary invisible man in the sky or, in the case of worshiping real live people, giving far too high of praise to people who don't deserve that level of reverence.

    Worship is a contraction of worthship. We praise that which we find worthy. For us, that would be the Lord.

    Revelation 4:11 KJV — Thou art worthy, O Lord, to receive glory and honour and power: for thou hast created all things, and for thy pleasure they are and were created.

    God and only God is worthy of worship.  The worship due to God and only to God is known as latria.

    The truth is that death leads to heaven or hell, and the only way to heaven is through faith in Jesus Christ.

    The Bible is very clear that no one can earn their way to heaven since good works do not pay for sins. See Gal. 2:16, Rom. 3:23-28, 4:4-5, Eph. 2:8-9, Tit. 3:5. The only way to heaven is by believing in Jesus for His free gift of eternal life. Jesus shed His blood on the cross as the full payment for our sins. He did all the work; all He requires of us is that we believe in Him. Once you believe in Jesus Christ to save you, you are secure forever!

    Because we have all sinned against a perfectly holy and righteous God, we all deserve eternal separation from God in hell (Rom. 6:23). However, God loves us so much that He sent His only Son Jesus to die on the cross as our Substitute so we don't have to go to hell. Christ died for our sins, was buried, and rose from the grave three days later (1 Cor. 15:3-4). He gives eternal life freely to anyone who simply believes in Him for it. No one can be saved by doing good works. Salvation is by grace alone through faith alone in Christ alone (Eph. 2:8-9).

    "Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that believeth on me hath everlasting life" (John 6:47).

    Such worship is required if someone wants to post the same question repeatedly.
