God is exalted above all blessing and praise, not only all ours, but that of all of the angels. We must therefore say, with holy admiration, Who is like unto the Lord our God? #Psalms113
We prefer death itself to the disgrace of forsaking a cause so true, a doctrine so pure, a Saviour so gracious, a Prince so noble, and so worthy of our most loyal service.
“Give to [Jesus], in the very highest degree that is possible, glory and majesty, dominion and power, the highest praise of which your thankful heart is capable, and the deepest devotion to which your grateful spirit can attain.”
-Charles Spurgeon
Let us know and be fully persuaded, that wherever the faithful, who worship Him purely and in due form, according to the appointment of His word, are assembled together to engage in the solemn acts of religious worship, He is graciously present, and presides in the midst of them.
- John Calvin
"It is impossible to honor God as we ought, unless we know Him as He is; and we could not know Him as He is without divine revelation from Himself; for none but God can acquaint us with His own nature." – Stephen Charnock
Faith apprehends Christ to be–as he is indeed–the power of God, and the wisdom of God, unto the salvation of them that do believe; and therein doth it find rest with peace.
- John Owen
Heaven is a world of love because in heaven dwells Jesus Christ, the Lamb of God, the Prince of peace and love, who so loved the world that He shed His blood, and poured out His soul unto death for it.

1 John 5:11-12 ESV
And this is the testimony, that God gave us eternal life, and this life is in his Son. [12] Whoever has the Son has life; whoever does not have the Son of God does not have life.
William Perkins on the ordinary means of grace:
“We must look for Christ where God offers Him to us. In the Word and sacraments, He opens His hand and sets forth all the blessings of Christ to us. We must not imagine that we can find Christ wherever we like.”
