Fuller and Deeper #wcs40

The older I grow—and I now stand on the brink of eternity—the more comes back to me the first sentence in the catechism which I learned when a child and the fuller and deeper its meaning becomes: What is the chief end of man?  To glorify God and to enjoy him forever."

—Thomas Carlyle

Doxology, Theology, and Predestination #wcs40

So shall this doctrine [of predestination] afford matter of praise, reverence, and admiration of God, and of humility, diligence, and abundant consolation, to all that sincerely obey the Gospel.

- Westminster Confession of Faith, 3.VIII
