The glory of God revealed in His Son, Jesus Christ, is a foundational truth in our faith. Jesus is the ultimate revelation of God’s nature, love, power, and purpose for humanity. Through His life, death, resurrection, and ascension, Jesus makes the invisible God known in a personal and tangible way.
Jesus as the Full Revelation of God’s Glory
Scripture Focus:
John 1:14 (NIV): “The Word became flesh and made his dwelling among us. We have seen his glory, the glory of the one and only Son, who came from the Father, full of grace and truth.”
Context: This verse points to the incarnation, where the Word (Jesus) became flesh. Jesus, being fully God, revealed God’s glory through His humanity. He is the manifestation of God’s presence and nature in a way that humanity can comprehend.
Key Take-away: God’s glory is not just an abstract concept—it is revealed in the person of Jesus Christ. Through His life, His works, and His sacrifice, we can see God’s grace, truth, holiness, and love in action.
