"If God desires every knee to bow to Jesus and every tongue to confess to Him, so should we. We would be 'jealous' for the honour of His name- troubled when it remains unknown, hurt when it is ignored, indignant when it is blasphemed and all the time anxious and determined that it shall be given the honour and glory which are due to it. The highest of all m*ss*onary motives is neither obedience to the Great Commission (important as that is), nor love for sinners who are alienated and perishing (strong as that incentive is), but rather zeal- burning and passionate zeal- for the glory of Jesus Christ."
- John Stott

"...Christ in you, the hope of glory."
This quote puts an interesting spin on Col 1:27b. Just a random thought - hope you're doing well.
