Who are we going to hear when we go to church? Are we going to hear God or a speaker? It seems so often in today's churches that we focus more on the person speaking then on God. We all look up to people like John Piper, but do we look up to them too much. It becomes a huge deal to go and hear someone like him because he is a big name in the church. But isn't more important to think about the fact that men like that are really speaking the word of God and we are going to hear God not the human.
On page 151 Burroughs goes into great detail about the fact that we are going to hear God speak and not man. "It is not a man speaking that you are going to attend, but you are now going to attend upon God, and to hear the Word of the eternal God."
