    Matt.25: 31 "Glory"

    "When the Son of man shall come in his glory, and all the holy angels with him, then shall he sit upon the throne of his glory."

    Glory of God is simply the holiness of God in operation. As the judge over all nations the Spirit is not presenting him in relation to his Father but as God himself. He is, as the writer to the Hebrews qualify him as 'the brightness of his glory.' This glory is expressed in his person and in the word of his power in the example he had set as an intercessor for his Father. (He 1:3)

    He demonstrated what was the path of glory. "For none of us liveth to himself, and no man dieth to himself. For whether we live, we live unto the Lord; and whether we die, we die unto the Lord: whether we live therefore, or die, we are the Lord's."(Ro.147-9)

    He is the Lord both of the dead and living.

    Glory of the body that God has prepared before man has only one fit and it is the Man. In his death and resurrection this glorious body is a building not made with hands, a house nevertheless, "eternal in the heavens."

    Every man who is called to be holy and blameless before him in love has his work cut out because our Lord Saviour gave the pattern. We need fit the template so one measurement that works has angel part to size already. Do we fit in? It is what the Parable asks? Holy angels are witnesses so whether we did, "inasmuch as ye have done it unto one of the least of these my brethren, ye have done it unto me" require no further evidence.

    "For I was an hungered," love of God is in charity so you feed the hungry as though Christ in you did. "But whoso hath this world's good, and seeth his brother have need, and shutteth up his bowels of compassion from him, how dwelleth the love of God in him?"( 1 John 3:17; 1 Co.13) Prisons are institutionalised by nations that are complicit with Satan and his angels. Bringing succour in their helplessness is how the love of God is expressed. Nations shall wither away but the glory of God never.
