Harpazō) which was typified by Prophet Elijah’s translation. It shall be a global event involving all believers that are actually awaiting the coming of the Lord (1 Jn. 3:1-3). The boom shall be followed by a gloom which will pervade the earth. Then, we explored the setting of the Antichrist’s structure on earth which affirms the brevity of time; and finally we looked at the necessary investment at this eleventh hour.   Today, we shall be looking at:   Topic:               THE GLORY OF THE COMING KING Subtexts: Matt. 16:27,28, 17:1-5; Jn. 1:47-51; 1 Thess. 4:14-17   The word “glory” in our context is the Greek word Doxa which primarily signifies an opinion: the honour resulting from a good opinion as used of the nature and acts of God in self-manifestation; even as demonstrated in the acts of Christ in the days of His flesh (Jn. 1:14, 2:11, 11:4,40) as well as before and thereafter (Jn. 17:5,24; Heb. 1:2-3).   So, the superlative character, qualities and acts of the Lord constitute His glory.   Peter, James and John had an experiential knowledge of the glory that the Lord Jesus would exude/radiate at His 2^nd advent. In His human form, the Lord laid aside His divinity to put on a humble incarnate position decked with limitations (Phil. 2:7). So, as a human being He had limitations (Mk. 13:31,32).   He had physical vulnerability (experienced fatigue, hunger, thirst), spatial confinement, emotional experiences, intellectual constraints, ministerial checks (opposed by Samaritans/Jews, hindered by doubt, subject to temptation).   Currently, the Lord Jesus is in His full divinity mode possessing all qualities and abilities in the Father’s measure (Phil. 2:5-6). Though He currently holds the ultimate authority in the universe (Matt. 28:18; Rom. 14:9; 1 Cor. 15:27; Phil. 2:9-10; Heb. 1:2-4; 1 Pt. 3:22), He prescribed that requests should be made to the Father (Jn. 14:12-14) and guaranteed the Father’s love and faithfulness   (Jn. 16:23-24, 26-27; 17:9,15,20).   NB: The verb “pray” in Jn. 16 & 17 was translated form the Greek ӗrōtaō, which suggests Petitioner is on the same footing of equality or familiarity that lends authority to the request with the person whom he entreats.   It is important to note that the atmosphere that surrounded the mount at the event of transfiguration was a picture of the glory that will be exuded by the Lord after His resurrection, especially at His return (Matt. 17:2-4; 28:1-4; Lk. 9:29-35, 24:12 cp. Acts 12:6-10).   The event (transfiguration) portrayed perfection of knowledge as the apostles could identify the visitors who had departed from the planet several centuries before they were born (Matt. 17:4; Hbk. 2:14; Isa. 11:9).   The pleasantness of the arena depicts the bliss that follows the manifestation of divine glory (2 Cor. 3:17; Acts 10:38). It should be strongly noted that the desire of the Godhead bounces like a law that creatures crave to identify with or fulfill, hence the emergence of the lying spirit to serve in the termination of the ungodly king (1 Kgs. 22:18-22); the activities of inanimate elements in neutralizing Joshua’s enemies (Jos. 10:11); the withdrawal of sunlight (eclipse) for 3 hours (Matt. 27:45); the spontaneous renting of the Temple veil (Matt. 27:51 cp. Heb. 4:16, 9:6-9); the rumbling of the earth and renting of rocks (Matt. 27:51 cp. Acts 16:25,26); the opening of the portal of hades signified by the witnessed resurrection of the dead (Matt. 27:52; Ps. 24:7,9).   It is also imperative to note that while glorious experiences follow the manifestation of divine presence, judgment is often swift upon evil and erroneous deeds (cons. Ex. 19:17-25; Lev. 10:1-2; Num. 12:9-15, 16:1-34; 1 Sam. 5-6; 2 Sam. 6:8; Acts 5:1-11; 1 Cor.   11:29,30).   Knowledge of this truth which aligns with the truth that all things work together for good to them that love God… (Rom. 8:28) will rewrite life stories of the challenged believer (Prov. 24:3-5).   The ominivalent glory of the Lord is available in the season at hand preparing people for the rapture. Can someone rise to assert his right through the stated truth (Joel 2:28; Acts 2:17; Matt. 28:18-20)?
