“Wherever you turn your eyes you will see nothing but glory and grandeur and beauty and brightness and purity and perfection and splendor and satisfaction and sweetness and salvation and majesty and marvel and holiness and happiness.”
“Therefore, their knowledge will increase to eternity; and if their knowledge, doubtless their holiness. For as they increase in the knowledge of God and of the works of God, the more they will see of his excellency; and the more they see of his excellency . . . the more will they love him; and the more they love God, the more delight and happiness . . . will they have in him.” (Edwards, The Miscellanies, The Works of Jonathan Edwards)
Will you be the thirsty conqueror OR the quenched coward?
To the thirsty I will give from the spring of the water of life without payment.
BIG IDEA: We worship confidently as we live as thirsty conquerors.
1. It frees us from the temptation of earthly wealth and comfort.
C.S. Lewis: “if we find ourselves with a desire that nothing in this world can satisfy, the most logical explanation is that we were made for another world.”
2. It drives us on mission to pull people out of cowardly living.
