A good message about the purpose of God’s display of love:

Hi all! I found a good article by John Piper on-line titled “The Goal of God’s Love May Not Be What We Think.” I think it’s worthy to share.

Here’s a short clip:

… “The greatest news in all the world is that there is no final conflict between my passion for joy and God’s passion for his glory. The knot that ties these together is the truth that God is most glorified in us when we are most satisfied in him. Jesus Christ died and rose again to forgive the treason of our souls, which have turned from savoring God to savoring self. In the cross of Christ, God rescues us from the house of mirrors and leads us out to the mountains and canyons of his majesty. Nothing satisfies us – or magnifies him – more.”
