Untitled Sermon (11)

Glory:

Zechariah 6:13 AV

Even he shall build the temple of the LORD; and he shall bear the glory, and shall sit and rule upon his throne; and he shall be a priest upon his throne: and the counsel of peace shall be between them both.

Matthew 19:28 AV

And Jesus said unto them, Verily I say unto you, That ye which have followed me, in the regeneration when the Son of man shall sit in the throne of his glory, ye also shall sit upon twelve thrones, judging the twelve tribes of Israel.

Revelation 5:13 AV

And every creature which is in heaven, and on the earth, and under the earth, and such as are in the sea, and all that are in them, heard I saying, Blessing, and honour, and glory, and power, be unto him that sitteth upon the throne, and unto the Lamb for ever and ever.

Jesus was rejected by man but honored by God. Jesus receive glory when He was resurrected from the dead.

Jesus Christ achieved his work on the earth in dying for the remission of sins. As a result, God gave Him glory (an exalted state). This exalted state was Jesus being brought back to life after 3 days. This exalted state was Christ receiving a glorified body. This exalted state was Christ ascending from the earth to heaven and having set on the right hand of the Father. (Look up glory and thrones).
