Jesus Christ: his aim

Jesus Christ: his aim by ric gustafson


Psalm 19:1 says the heavens declare the glory of God. Heaven, earth and the created universe is all about the glory of God. The psalm talks about the glory of God. Our universe exists because of the glory of God. Our human heart longs to enjoy the glory of God. Isaiah 43 says that we were created for God's glory.
Creation has fallen into disorder. When we trade God's glory for earthly pleasures, chaos reigns. To start our soul healing, we need to get back to God's glory. II Corinthians 4:4 says that the glory of Christ is the image of God. The glory of Christ shows the glory of God.
The aim of Jesus Christ is that we always savor and yearn for the glory of God.
