Thank-you for addressing these questions and what you have said about glorifying God is good. To glorify Him by living with joy and freedom is one thing however we must not forget obedience and holiness. Freedom in Christ is being free from the eternal consequences of our sin by saving faith in Christ alone but it is not freedom to live as we like. God is glorified when we walk in holiness and obedience to His commands. That means rejecting those things that He rejects and loving that which He loves. Many Bible characters were identified by lives that pleased God by obedience but they were NOT perfect. Noah (Gen 6:9), Job, (Job 1:1), David (Acts 13:22), Elizabeth & Zacharias (Luk 1:6) 1 John 5:3 For this is the love of God, that we keep his commandments: and his commandments are not grievous. 1 Peter 1:15-16 But as he which hath called you is holy, so be ye holy in all manner of conversation; 16 Because it is written, Be ye holy; for I am holy.
