January 22, 2023 Speaker: Dr. Dave Berry Series: Following Jesus Together

Topic: Preexistence, Missions, Authority, Father's Love, Trinity, God, Glory Scripture: John 17:1–5

What is the chief end of God? Is God man centered and does He exist for us? Or is God God- centered and we exist for him?

As Jesus begins His High Priestly prayer in John 17, He will point us to that answer and more

OUTLINE

  1. The Father Glorifies the Son Who Glorifies the Father, so Marvel at Their Glory (v1)

  2. The Father Glorifies the Son Who Glorifies the Father so Marvel at Their Gospel (v2-4)

  3. The Father Glorifies the Son Who Glorifies the Father, so Marvel at Their Grace (v5, 24)

The end for which God works is His glory and our redemption is bound up in that very glory.

What is the chief end of God? To glorify God, enjoy Himself forever, and bring us into that gospel joy.
