Jonathan opens us with a primer from Psalms 86 asking the questions, “Who is God?” and “Why did He make us (or anything) in the first place?” Hint: We are made in His image - to be fruitful, multiply and fill!

Notes

Psalms 86:9-10 (NIV)
9 All the nations you have made will come and worship before you, Lord; they will bring glory to your name.
10 For you are great and do marvelous deeds; you alone are God.

“Be Fruitful, Multiply, Fill…”

Hints in the Lord’s Prayer

John 17:11 (NIV)
11 I will remain in the world no longer, but they are still in the world, and I am coming to you. Holy Father, protect them by the power of your name, the name you gave me, so that they may be one as we are one. 

John 17:24 (NIV)
24 “Father, I want those you have given me to be with me where I am, and to see my glory, the glory you have given me because you loved me before the creation of the world.

John 17:26 (NIV)
26 I have made you known to them, and will continue to make you known in order that the love you have for me may be in them and that I myself may be in them.”

Sons - Fruitful
Glory - Multiplication
All in All - Filling

"Therefore all nations shall worship before thee, because as King of nations thou art great, thy sovereignty absolute and incontestable, thy majesty terrible and insupportable, thy power universal and irresistible, thy riches vast and inexhaustible, thy dominion boundless and unquestionable…”
- Matthew Henry
