The Purpose Driven Life: The Reasons - April 23, 2015










The true things of God begin to reflect His glory and majesty...

1 Corinthians 8:6     yet for us there is but one God, the Father, from whom all things came and for whom we live; and there is but one Lord, Jesus Christ, through whom all things came and through whom we live.

Proverbs 16:4    The LORD has made everything for its purpose,...

Psalm 89:5     The heavens praise your wonders, LORD, your faithfulness too, in the assembly of the holy ones.

His majesty and glory is best seen in the person of Jesus.

Hebrews 1:3     The Son is the radiance of God's glory and the exact representation of his being, sustaining all things by his powerful word. After he had provided purification for sins, he sat down at the right hand of the Majesty in heaven.

John 17:3 -5     …3 "This is eternal life, that they may know You, the only true God, and Jesus Christ whom You have sent. 4 "I glorified You on the earth, having accomplished the work which You have given Me to do. 5 "Now, Father, glorify Me together with Yourself, with the glory which I had with You before the world was.

All glory goes to God when we worship Him, show love to others and become Christ-like in our words thoughts and deeds

1 John 3:14     We know that we have passed from death to life, because we love each other. Anyone who does not love remains in death.

2 Corinthians 3:18     And we all, who with unveiled faces contemplate the Lord's glory, are being transformed into his image with ever-increasing glory, which comes from the Lord, who is the Spirit.

Who will you live for? Will you live for yourself and your own goals and pleasures or will you live for God and a life of glory and eternal reward?


John 12: 24 - 26          …24 "Truly, truly, I say to you, unless a grain of wheat falls into the earth and dies, it remains alone; but if it dies, it bears much fruit. 25 "He who loves his life loses it, and he who hates his life in this world will keep it to life eternal. 26 "If anyone serves Me, he must follow Me; and where I am, there My servant will be also; if anyone serves Me, the Father will honor him.…
