“They whose affection to God is
founded first on his profitableness to them, their affection begins at the
wrong end: they regard God only for the utmost limit of the stream of divine
good, where it touches them, and reaches their interest… But… in a gracious
gratitude, men are affected with the attribute of God’s goodness and free
grace, not only as they are concerned in it, or as it affects their interest,
but as… infinitely glorious in itself.”
"For it is all for your sake, so that as grace extends to more and more people it may increase thanksgiving, to the glory of God." 2 Corithians 4:15
