c. Eternal glory: The idea of eternal glory is hard for us to comprehend. The Bible tells us there is a glory that belongs to the people of God in eternity that is greater than any earthly glory. Eternal glory is worth much more than earthly glory. 4. (2 Timothy 2:11-13) Paul describes his gospel with a faithful saying. This is a faithful saying:
For Shepherds and Sheep. A. Elders should be faithful shepherds. 1. (1 Peter 5:1) A call to elders. The elders who are among you I exhort, I who am a fellow elder and a witness of the sufferings of Christ, and also a partaker of the glory that will be revealed: a. The elders who are among you I exhort: Peter will give a word of exhortation to ...
Dec 6, 2017 · Glory has to do with light and beauty, but those aspects do not sum up what the Bible means when it speaks of the glory of God. Interestingly, the Hebrew word kabod, which is translated into English as “glory,” has the root meaning of “weight” or “heaviness.” This offers a clue that glory has to do with weight, and this is confirmed ...

Think especially of the horrors of dying. It’s not too uncommon for those final minutes to be terrible. And that’s an understatement. And when the moments (or months) of dying are finally over, what good might it have served this world? You’re dead. No strengthened faith. No increased sanctification. Perhaps no sterling testimony to friends and fam...
First, let’s note how gloriously understated in our English is this phrase “beyond all comparison.” Paul puts together a stunning string of language here in an effort to communicate how mind-numbingly great is the fullness of our reward to come. “Beyond all comparison” translates the Greek kath huperbolēn eis huperbolēn which we might render litera...
We don’t know the half of all that will be included in this stunning glory to come, but even the sketch of it we do have is indeed “beyond all compare” — extraordinary degree, to extraordinary degree. First, we will see the risen, glorified Christ (1 John 3:2; Revelation 1:13–16; Matthew 17:2). And as if that alone weren’t enough, “we shall be like...
But how is it that our present sufferings relate to this coming glory that human language stammers to even give a glimpse? This is the unique contribution of 2 Corinthians 4:17. Paul says that our affliction in this age prepares for us this coming glory which is beyond comprehension and compare. The verb prepares (katergazomai) here means to work o...
Dear brother or sister in Christ, your afflictions are never wasted. Your pain is never in vain. Empty as our sufferings may seem in this world, they are working — they are producing for us — glory in the life to come, and glory so great that not even the apostle Paul can grab enough human language to do it justice. As John Piper declares on the ba...
These twin glorious truths indeed are grounds to “not lose heart.” Which is precisely what Paul says in the verse immediately preceding 2 Corinthians 4:17: Which doesn’t mean that we pretend that afflictions are not afflictions. Trouble is trouble. Pain is pain. Hurt is hurt. Bringing eternity into view doesn’t make our sufferings themselves any le...
Jul 26, 2013 · Verse 17: “This light momentary affliction is preparing for us an eternal weight of glory beyond all comparison.”. This glory, that God will show us and give us, is beyond imagination. “What no eye has seen, nor ear heard, nor the heart of man imagined, God has prepared for those who love him” (1 Corinthians 2:9).
2 Timothy 2:10. ESV Therefore I endure everything for the sake of the elect, that they also may obtain the salvation that is in Christ Jesus with eternal glory. NIV Therefore I endure everything for the sake of the elect, that they too may obtain the salvation that is in Christ Jesus, with eternal glory. NASB For this reason I endure all things ...
