Living Grounded: What does it actually mean to glorify God's name & how do we know God is more glori

May 22, 2024

Questions:

1. You talked a lot about glorifying gods name and him doing things for his name sake. In the Ezekiel passage there seems to be a clear misrepresentation of gods name by the way the nations respond to it. What does gods name being glorified actually mean/look like? How are people meant to respond to his name when it’s receiving its proper glory? What thoughts or responses should be associated?


2. You mentioned in the Q&A that ministry work or ‘evangelism’ type work is more glorifying to God than all other types of work whether it be non ministry vocational work, volunteer work, etc. Is there somewhere in the bible that makes this clear distinction? If it is true, would god not be more glorified if everyone went into ministry work? If god gives churches and people the gift pastors, teachers, evangelists,etc…..Does that mean some are more capable of giving god more glory than others?
