Perryism – The main focus of redemption is not man’s salvation but God’s glorification.
Ephesians 1:12 – so that we who had already put our hope in the Messiah might bring praise to His glory.
Ephesians 1:14 – He is the down payment of our inheritance, for the redemption of the possession, to the praise of His glory.
Ephesians 3:16 – I pray that He may grant you, according to the riches of His glory, to be strengthened with power in the inner man through His Spirit,
Ephesians 3:21 – to Him be glory in the church and in Christ Jesus to all generations, forever and ever. Amen.
While it might sound strange, our salvation is a means to an end, not the end itself. Yes God wants fellowship, but it not because of we are worth it, but because God is.
