In today’s Part II of the glory of God, I wanted to share some additional quotations to help us all realize that giving God glory in everything we do is the highest privilege, and the greatest responsibility, of the Christian.1

“If you love anything better than God you are idolaters: if there is anything you would not give up for God it is your idol: if there is anything that you seek with greater fervor than you seek the glory of God, that is your idol, and conversion means a turning from every idol.” ~ Charles Spurgeon

“I believe what Irenaeus said – the glory of God is a human being fully alive.” ~ Rick Warren

“Theology is a serious quest for the true knowledge of God, undertaken in response to His self-revelation, illumined by Christian tradition, manifesting a rational inner coherence, issuing in ethical conduct, resonating with the contemporary world and concerned for the greater glory of God.” ~ John Stott
