Catechism Question 1
This year I have been spending a lot of time studying the Westminster Shorter Catechism. We have been reading a study guide by G.I. Williamson as part of the kids schooling. I have also been teaching a Adult Bible class on Sunday mornings based on the Catechism. The first question and answer familiar to most Christians. It states that the "chief end" or ultimate goal of man is to glorify God. I don't think the catechism intends that we should try to make God glorious or more glorious for that matter. God is already glorious period end of story! I believe the catechism intends to remind us that everything we do in life, even the mundane, should ultimately give God credit. First Corinthians 1:31 So whether you eat or drink or whatever you do, do it all for the glory of God.
