Words for Wednesday

From a book I'm reading for Lent:

Therefore sin is not small, because it is not against a small Sovereign. The seriousness of an insult rises with the dignity of the one insulted. The Creator of the universe is infinitely worthy of respect and admiration and loyalty. Therefore failure to love him is not trivial - it is treason. It defames God and destroys human happiness.

(p.21, The Passion of Christ by John Piper)
