Bible Question: I do not understand the meaning of "according to His riches in glory by Christ Jesus". Since this is our God's way of supplying all my need, I want to understand what God is expressing by this phrase. Thanks and God bless you. |
Bible Answer: "according to His riches in glory by Christ Jesus" Relationship! In accordance to or to the same measure...All His riches in glory. Would you think there would be anything lacking in God? I think a good cross reference here might be 2 Peter 1:2-4 Grace and peace be multiplied unto you through the knowledge of God, and of Jesus our Lord, according as His divine power hath made unto us allall things that pertain to life and godliness, through the knowledge of Him that hath called us to glory and virtue: Whereby are given unto us exceeding great and precious promises: that by these ye might be partakers of the divine nature, having escaped the corruption that is in the world through lust. Key words to think about... What do they mean to you? 1. Grace and peace - multiplied unto you 2. Through the knowledge of God and Jesus (our Lord) 3. According to His power 4. Has given all things 5. Life and godliness 6. great and precious promises 7. Partakers of the divine nature All your need is supplied but where and what is the supply? Do not look for the 'supply' but diligently seek the 'supplier' for it is as you grow in the knowledge of Him that you receive the supply. (as you go-in your walk with Him-by faith) |
