The Ultimate Aim Of The Gospel Is

Worship Is A Way Of Gladly Reflecting Back To God The Radiance Of His Worth. This Cannot Be Done By Mere Acts Of Duty. It Can Be Done Only When Spontaneous Affections Arise In The Heart.

It Is Unbiblical And Arrogant To Try To Worship God For Any Other Reason Than The Pleasure To Be Had In Him.

We Do Not Smirk At The Misery Or The Merrymaking Of Immoral Culture. We Weep. Being Pilgrims Does Not Mean Being Cynical. The Salt Of The Earth Does Not Mock Rotting Meat. Where It Can, It Saves And Seasons. And Where It Can’t, It Weeps.

The Task Of All Christian Scholarship—not Just Biblical Studies—is To Study Reality As A Manifestation Of God’s Glory, To Speak And Write About It With Accuracy, And To Savor The Beauty Of God In It, And To Make It Serve The Good Of Man. It Is An Abdication Of Scholarship When Christians Do Academic Work With Little Reference To God. If All The Universe And Everything In It Exist By The Design Of An Infinite, Personal God, To Make His Manifold Glory Known And Loved, Then To Treat Any Subject Without Reference To God’s Glory Is Not Scholarship But Insurrection.

From Eternity To Eternity, The Beauty Of God Is Pervasive And Practical. Ask Him To Open The Eyes Of Your Heart (ephesians 1:18). Give Your Life To This Quest - Seeing And Savoring More And More Of The Happifying Beauty Of God.
