"And rejoice in hope of the glory of God." - Romans 5:2.

Happy the soul that is able to find its joy in the indulgence of such a hope as this. Fallen man rejoices in hope of his own glory; not of his own true glory, but of a false and worldly glory, utterly disconnected with the glory of God. That soul is already largely redeemed that has learned to identify its own interests with the glory of God. And this hope shall be fulfilled; nothing is more certain. The glory of God must go forth triumphant one of these days, and conquer all the detestable glory that men and devils have been bringing like a pall of bedizened sackcloth over the face of universal things.

The Christian is even now greatly conversant with the glory of God; but the more that he knows of it the more passionately does he long for that moment when it shall be manifested with all its appropriate sublimity; when every eye shall see it; when the idolized ones of earth shall hide their heads in caves and dens; when Christ shall be admired in his believers; when they shall be filled with the Holy Ghost, and their bodies made like unto Christ’s glorious body; when the New Jerusalem shall come down from God out of heaven, having " the glory of God."
