Consider the Glory of God
Consider: the glory of his eternality that makes the mind want to explode with the infinite thought that God never had a beginning, but simply always was; the glory of his knowledge that makes the Library of Congress look like a matchbox and quantum physics like a first grade reader; the glory of his wisdom that has never been and can never be counseled by men; the glory of his authority over heaven and earth and hell, without whose permission no man and no demon can move one inch; the glory...
