Text : 2 Thessalonians 2:14.
With this purpose in mind, he called you through our proclamation of the gospel so that you would obtain the glory of our Lord Jesus, the Messiah.
Glory is described as great beauty or splendour that is so overwhelming. It is considered powerful. Glory is honour, admiration, or distinction, accorded by common consent to a person or thing.
Being called to the glory of Jesus Christ means that God invites us—through faith in Christ Jesus to share in His life, His holiness, His purpose, and ultimately, His eternal glory. This calling is both a present reality and a future hope for every believer.
To be called to His glory first means being called into a personal relationship with Jesus Christ. It's not just about rules or religion, but about being united with Him.
1 Corinthians 1:9 says, “God is faithful, who has called you into fellowship with His Son, Jesus Christ our Lord.”
*You’re invited into intimacy, friendship, and transformation through knowing Jesus. How well are you exploring and enjoying this relationship?*
The Bible teaches that those who trust in Christ will ultimately share in His glory, meaning we will be transformed and live forever in His presence.
Romans 8:17 says,“...if we are children, then we are heirs—heirs of God and co-heirs with Christ, if indeed we share in His sufferings in order that we may also share in His glory.”
Sharing in Jesus’ glory often includes sharing in His suffering. This is one truth that many believers do not want to hear. Glory follows suffering, just as just Christ suffered before entering glory, Luke 24:26, believers may walk a hard road but it ends in eternal reward and glory. Truly, when you persevere to the end, you will know and say like Paul that our light affliction here is working for us an exceeding weight of glory. (2 Corinthians 4:17).
