The New Age: Glory Completed
The New Testament anticipates the day when people will enjoy the glory and honor that Christ already achieved in His ascension to heaven (Heb 1:3, 13). Christians have a sure “hope of the glory of God” (Rom 5:2; compare Col 1:27), to be realized at Christ’s second coming (Col 3:4). At that time, believers will “obtain the glory” of Christ (2 Thess 2:14; 2 Tim 2:10), and their bodies will be raised (1 Cor 15:43; Phil 3:21). Christians must expect suffering as a preparation for future glory (Rom 8:17; 2 Cor 4:17). To see Christ’s glory when the new age fully comes will be to enjoy it in God’s immediate presence (John 17:24).
