Corinthians 1:29-31
(a) –
Notations from GNV - There is no sacrifice, which God more esteemeth,
than thanksgiving for his benefits. For as he delivered his servant
David, so will he do all that are in distress, and call upon him.
Brethren:
The sacrifice of praise, that is of the lips is more pleasing to God than all others. For it shows the humbleness of the heart of the one that is giving it.
The sacrifice of praise, that is of the lips is more pleasing to God than all others. For it shows the humbleness of the heart of the one that is giving it.
“Not
in men, nor in any outward enjoyment, nor in any works of
righteousness, but in the Lord; 'in the Word of the Lord', as the
Targum; in the Lord Jesus Christ; in his wisdom, strength, riches,
righteousness, redemption, and salvation; in interest in him, and
communion with him: and this is not tongue but soul boasting; and not
flashy and selfish, but solid, spiritual, and hearty; and with all
the powers and faculties of the soul. The
humble shall hear [thereof]; either of the deliverance the
psalmist had out of the hands of his enemies; or of his blessing and
praising the Lord for the same, and making his boast in him as the
God of his salvation; or of both: of these humble ones. [Those], that
rejoice, and are glad at heart that others share in the goodness and
grace of God; and also because by such an instance of the divine
power and kindness they are encouraged to hope that he will, in his
own time, deliver them out of their afflictions and distresses also.”
