Subject: Explain share in the glory of our Lord |
Bible Note: Hi Greentwiga, You wrote of "the joy of his coming". As one who looks at capitalization, I would say that we should look for His [sic] coming. I have been considering John 5 today, and I would compare this 2 Thess 2:8 and (His) coming in judgment with John 5:30, "I can do nothing on My own initiative. As I hear, I judge; and (My) judgment is just, because I do not seek My own will, but the will of Him who sent Me,---the Father." It is when we do the will of the Father --as sons-- that we can share in the glory of our Lord Jesus Christ. Jesus did not receive the glory of men per John 5:41. They were not willing to come to Him to have life. They did not love God. He came in His Father's authority and they did not receive Him. My point is that people receive other men when they come in their own name and they receive honor or fame and they relate to one another. But Jesus came in the likeness of men, but was God in the flesh, the Son of God. We as believers are children of God. BTW, I would welcome any comments to my John 5:32 thread. From the heart, Ray |
