The Glory of God Revealed
God's glory revealed through Creation and the Scriptures should lead man to repentance.
Creation declares (makes known) God's glory to all mankind. - v. 1-6
We hear the voice of God in creation by seeing His wisdom and power. Certainly so complex an entity as our universe (and the universes beyond our own universe) demands a Creator and Sustainer. To believe that the universe evolved out of nothing and arranged itself in this orderly manner is folly.
6 The voice said, Cry.
And he said, What shall I cry?
All flesh is pgrass,
And all the goodliness thereof is as pthe flower of the field:
7 qThe grass withereth, the flower fadeth:
Because the spirit of the LORD bloweth upon it:
Surely the people is grass.
8 The grass withereth, the flower fadeth:
But the word of our God shall stand for ever.
The Law/Word of God declares His Glory and righteousness to all mankind, even the naive, lacking intelligence. - v. 7-11
but a doer of the work, this man shall be blessed in his deed.
God's glory is declared in my life when I yield myself to Him. - v. 12-14
9 The heart is deceitful above all things, and desperately wicked: who can know it?
34 O generation of vipers, how can ye, being evil, speak good things? for out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaketh.
16 This I say then, Walk in the Spirit, and mye shall not fulfil the lust of the flesh.
