The excitement in JP’s demeanour shows and explains a lot how seeing the glory of God affected him.

Glory Glory Glory in the Highest ❤

Glorious! Excited to delve into the book.

A lot of great truth

In his book Holiness, J C Ryle gives three facts that sceptics can't explain: 1. Jesus Christ has impacted history deeper than anyone else, without "force or bribery arms or money" 2. The Bible is written by a small people group over a vast period of time without the authors colluding, and yet there "there is nothing that approaches it, for high views of God, for true views of man, for solemnity of thought, for grandeur of doctrine, and for purity of morality" 3. Christianity has transformed the places it has reached. "At this very moment I defy anyone to look at the map of the world, and compare the countries where men are Christians with those where men are not Christians and, to deny that these countries are as different as light and darkness, black and white."

For a more formal philosophical approach to this argument, which isn’t to downplay Pipers approach, but provide a supplement to further understanding see Walter Wainwrights book Reason, Revelation, and Devotion.
