Unto Him be glory in the church by Christ Jesus throughout all ages, world without end. Amen. Ephesians 3:21
The church is designed to glorify God. For an entity that was created to display the grace of the Almighty towards mankind, it is interesting that contemporary people speak of the church as something to meet their expectations and desires. In reality, it is to please the Head that this spiritual body exists. The church’s reason for being is to display the beauties of the Lord temporally and eternally. As we meet together for worship and edification, let us always remember that it is in the Lord’s name and authority that we gather, in the power of His Spirit, and for His glory. —Keith Keyser
Jesus our Lord to Thee, honour and majesty;
Now and forever be, here and in Heaven. —Thomas Kelly
