Big Idea:  Only eternal glory is worth dying for.
John
Only eternal glory is worth dying for.
1. God always acts for his own glory.
John 17:1 Jesus spoke these things, looked up to heaven, and said, “Father, the hour has come. Glorify your Son so that the Son may glorify you,
2. Only God's glory is eternal.
John 17: 2-3 …since you gave him authority over all people, so that he may give eternal life to everyone you have given him. This is eternal life: that they may know you, the only true God, and the one you have sent—Jesus Christ.
3. Courage to conquer.
John 17: 4-5 I have glorified you on the earth by completing the work you gave me to do. Now, Father, glorify me in your presence with that glory I had with you before the world existed.
Next Steps:
I have been living for my own glory.  Today, I exchange my glory for Jesus’s glory for the first time.
I renounce my glory and live for Jesus’s glory only this week.
