For The Glory of the Lord

Gal 1:3-5 3 Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ, 4 who gave Himself for our sins so that He might rescue us from this present evil age, according to the will of our God and Father, 5 to whom be the glory forevermore. Amen. NASU

1. Why did Jesus Christ give himself ?
2. Who was Christ obeying?
Jesus came to serve and not be served but we aren’t told that here, what we see here is the reality of His service. From the beginning of His life on earth Jesus had a purpose, the purpose was to pay for our sins. Romans 3:23 says, all (of us) has sinned and come short of the Glory of God.
We can see in the second part of verse for what Jesus did He did so that the glory goes to God. Being obedient to the will of God results in the glory going to God.

Does it for you?
1 Cor 10:31 Whether, then, you eat or drink or whatever you do, do all to the glory of God.

1 Peter 4:11 Whoever speaks, is to do so as one who is speaking the utterances of God; whoever serves is to do so as one who is serving 2 C by the strength which God supplies; so that in all things God may be glorified through Jesus Christ, to whom belongs the glory and dominion forever and ever. Amen. NASU

Why do you get up in the morning?
Why do you go to work?
Why would you want to be obedient to God’s call on your life?
In everything you do, it should be done to bring glory to God.
