Glorification

+ The destiny of God’s adopted sons and daughters is to follow Christ into the fullness of His victory over the forces of sin and death. This is what is meant throughout the Scriptures by the glorification of mankind. Glorification is not the exaltation of man above God so that we may become our own “gods,” but the manifestation of the divine life and power of Christ through the human condition. God’s goal is new humans whose earthly weakness gives way for God’s power and strength. God must become all in all - in mind, body, and spirit. A new heaven and a new earth are in the process of becoming.
