An Irreverent Age

"The greatest concern in our prayers and in our lives should be the hallowing of the name of God. It is of utmost importance that God Himself be reverenced, honored, glorified, and exalted. In our prayer and daily walk, we must be intensely concerned with the reputation of God, His Church, His Gospel, and His kingdom. To do something that brings scandal upon the name and character of the Lord is a hideous sin that puts Him to open shame." (The Full Life Study Bible)
