Sam Storms Quotes About Worship

• El objetivo último de la teología no es el conocimiento, sino la adoración. Si nuestro aprendizaje y conocimiento de Dios no conducen a la alabanza gozosa de Dios, hemos fracasado. Aprendemos sólo para poder alabar, lo que equivale a decir que la teología sin doxología es idolatría. La única teología que vale la pena estudiar es una teología que se pueda cantar.

• God is most glorified in us when our knowledge and experience of Him ignite a forest fire of joy that consumes all competing pleasures and He alone becomes the treasure that we prize.

  Fire, Joy, Treasure

• Worship without wonder is lifeless and boring. Many have lost their sense of awe and amazement when it comes to God. Having begun with the arrogant presumption of knowing about God all that one can, they reduce Him to manageable terms and confine Him to a tidy theological box, the dimensions of which conform to their predilections of what a god ought to be and do.

• Worship is first and foremost a feasting on all that God is for us in Jesus... [One] in which God is the host, the cook, the waiter, and the meal itself.

• If you come to worship for any reason other that the joy and pleasure and satisfaction that are to be found in God, you dishonor Him...God's greatest delight is your delight in Him.

  Sam Storms

  Joy, Delight, Satisfaction

• Worship is not about my enjoyment. It is about my enjoyment of God. It is not about my pleasure or my delight or my satisfaction. It is about my pleasure, delight, and satisfaction in God. Worship is not simply about glorifying God. It is about glorifying God by enjoying Him forever.

  Sam Storms

  Forever, Delight, Glorifying God

• I simply define glory as the beauty of God unveiled. Glory is the resplendent radiance of His power and His personality. Glory is all of God that makes God God, and shows Him to be worthy of our praise and our boasting and our trust and our hope and our confidence and our joy.

  Personality, Joy, Radiance

• If your reason for worshipping God is merely from a sense of moral duty, God would rather you not worship Him at all. To say that God is pleased with worship that lacks passion is to say God endorses hypocrisy.

  Sam Storms

  Passion, Hypocrisy, Moral

• To say that worship is either about glorifying God or finding personal satisfaction is to put asunder what God has joined together. His glory and your gladness are not separate tracks moving in opposite directions. Rather His glory is in your gladness in Him.

  Sam Storms

  Moving, Opposites, Track

• When it comes to satisfying our spiritual appetites, there is no such thing as excess. There are no restraints placed on us by God. There are no rules of temperance or laws requiring moderation or boundaries beyond which we cannot go in seeking to enjoy Him. We need never pause to inquire whether we've crossed a line or become overindulgent. You need never fear feeling too good about God.

  Spiritual, Law, Feelings

• Dios ha descorrido soberanamente el telón de su gloria. Se ha revelado a Sí mismo en la plataforma de la creación y la redención para que podamos permanecer asombrados en Su presencia, contemplando la dulce simetría de Sus atributos, reflexionando sobre las insondables profundidades de Su grandeza, desconcertados por la sabiduría de Sus obras y el alcance ilimitado de Su bondad. Esta es Su belleza.

  Sweet, Greatness, Depth

• The ultimate goal of theology isn't knowledge, but worship.
