Does these statements ring true to you?
Quote:
God employs his sovereignty to display the great object of his delight, his glory, the beauty of his manifold perfections.
He does all that he does to magnify the worth of his glory.
He would be unrighteous if he valued anything more than what is supremely valuable, namely, himself.

If God is self-centered and seeks means by which He can be glorified as these statements suggest, why are those traits in men condemned in the Bible?
