LESSON TEN:
“REJOICING IN THE HOPE OF THE GLORY OF GOD”
In the Fifth Chapter of Romans, Paul argues for faith
in the believers position in heaven as well as for faith
in a heavenly person by whom we attain, namely
Jesus Christ.
We don’t just “hope we make it to heaven” but we
also hope in the promise of attaining to “the Glory of
God”. This speaks of the promised glory of the Bride
of Christ to which the church has been espoused.
Grasp a higher calling than “getting to Heaven”, but to
be married to Christ for all eternity!
“THEREFORE, HAVING BEEN JUSTIFIED BY FAITH,
WE HAVE PEACE WITH GOD THROUGH OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST,
THROUGH WHOM ALSO WE HAVE ACCESS BY FAITH
INTO THIS GRACE IN WHICH WE STAND,
AND REJOICE IN HOPE OF
THE GLORY OF GOD.”
Rom. 5:1-3
