What motivates God? - Romans 11:33-36 - Dec 6, 09

The Glory of God - that is what motivates God. Selfishly, we don't want to hear this. We want to hear about a God who is motivated by love (for us). We want this because we desire to be at the center of the universe (or at least our universe). This has led to a shift in the Christian Gospel. We have shifted from the Gospel of Jesus Christ, which is concerned with being connected to the most high God to "the gospel of forgiveness" which is mainly about dealing with our guilt and getting heaven. It's time to return to worshipping God, who deserves the glory.
