Why We Exist
Why We Exist
“Jesus Loves Me”
9 But I wrought for my name’s sake, that it should not be polluted before the heathen, among whom they were, in whose sight I made myself known unto them, in bringing them forth out of the land of Egypt.
9 For my name’s sake will I defer mine anger, And for my praise will I refrain for thee, That I cut thee not off.
10 Behold, I have refined thee, but not with silver; I have chosen thee in the furnace of affliction.
11 For mine own sake, even for mine own sake, will I do it: For how should my name be polluted? And I will not give my glory unto another.
9 For my own name’s sake I delay my wrath; for the sake of my praise I hold it back from you, so as not to destroy you completely.
10 See, I have refined you, though not as silver; I have tested you in the furnace of affliction.
11 For my own sake, for my own sake, I do this. How can I let myself be defamed? I will not yield my glory to another.
14 “But I acted for the sake of My name, that it should not be profaned in the sight of the nations, before whose sight I had brought them out.
44 “Then you will know that I am the Lord when I have dealt with you for My name’s sake, not according to your evil ways or according to your corrupt deeds, O house of Israel,” declares the Lord God.’ ”
22 “You will be hated by all because of My name, but it is the one who has endured to the end who will be saved.
16 for I will show him how much he must suffer for My name’s sake.”
5 through whom we have received grace and apostleship to bring about the obedience of faith among all the Gentiles for His name’s sake,
12 I am writing to you, little children, because your sins have been forgiven you for His name’s sake.
Do we live to glorify God or Self?
Do we serve ourselves or God?
24 No man can serve two masters: for either he will hate the one, and love the other; or else he will hold to one, and despise the other. Ye cannot serve God and mammon.
