God's glory is foremost on His mind in every action and thought. he created all things with the intent that all created beings would bring Him pleasure and glory in one way or another. An olympic runner carefully trains himself that each step He takes will be as effective as possible - to the end that he might reach the finish line. A goal is always more important than the means, because it is the driving force that causes one to utilize said means. If the goal is appropriately assessed, the means will properly conform to the nature of the goal. So what is it to "glorify God"? Is it not to inwardly exclaim His magnificence and fame, producing outward response, the exclamation of His Name in one way or another?So how is God's goal of personal glory attained by Him? He knows His specific tactics. But that which is obvious - He gains Himself glory according to His love: for others and for Himself. In short, love is the giving of one's will freely for the benefit of others without thought of personal gain or satisfaction. Satisfaction is merely a natural outcome of love. So how is it that for His own glory's sake, God freely dispenses His will and desire to another? Love is a display of His glory. To be a receiver is to suggest on is lacking in some area and subject to the supply of another. To be a giver is to suggest that one is sufficient and another is in need. God's love for us is different than our love for Him. We love Him because He first loved us, and gave Himself for us. Being in sin, we cannot love God without His provision of grace. God is unique, holy, in that He is sufficient. He cannot help being love. Though He is love, however, He is also just, because He loves Himself foremost. When a man denies His free grace, He, being righteous and unable to commune with sin, must remain seperate from that sinner for eternity. Condemnation glorifies God since it magnifies this righteousness and justice. Plus, whatever God does spreads His fame. If it didn't, His action wouldn't be perfect, and He wouldn't be God. Therefore, the condemnation of a sinner brings Him glory, though He is yet not willing that any should perish.
