It is about the greatness of God, not the significance of man. God made man small and the universe big to say something about himself.
John PiperGod is infinitely valuable. I can't think of anything that would have a greater impact on your life than for you to believe that.
John PiperSin is what you do when your heart is not satisfied with God. No one sins out of duty. We sin because it holds out some promise of happiness. That promise enslaves us until we believe that God is more to be desired than life itself (Psalm 63:3). Which means that the power of sin's promise is broken by the power of God's.
