PRESENT AND FUTURE GLORY OF TRUE BELIEVERS
TEXT: JOHN 17:22-26 
Key verse:  “And the glory which Thou gavest Me I have given them; that they may be one, 
even as We are one.” (John 17:22).

Christ's final prayers for His true followers before his crucifixion contained a fervent request for believers to behold and partake in His glory. As believers on earth, He has given us the glory His Father gave Him. Christ has put in our uniqueness, honour, and majesty. He has made us incomparable to any other creature of His in this present life. Christians' glory in present life includes: 
(i) Power of sonship
(ii) Righteousness and holiness 
(iii) Light in the dark world. 
(iv) Excellent knowledge of the great God. 
(v) Fellowship with the triune God. 
(vi) Suffering on just course. 
(vii) Protection and accompaniment of angels. 
(viii) Anointing of the Holy Spirit 
(ix) Love and unity among believers and 
(x) Answer to prayers. 

Christ has prayed that the believer may be with Him where He is to behold His glory. Beholding Christ glory is being transformed into His glory. The future glory of believers includes the following: Glorious resurrection body, citizenship in the new heaven and earth, the presence and comfort of God, heavenly mansions, crowns, eternal life and joys of God not yet known. Hallelujah! 

1 Corinthians 2:9 “Eye hath not seen, nor ear heard, neither have entered into the heart of man, the things which God hath prepared for them that love him.” 

Thought for the day: Heaven is the final home for true Christians.
Song for the day: Hallelujah is our heavenly language.
Bible reading for the day: Ezekiel 32-33; 1 Peter 1

For taking your time to study remain blessed. August Tuesday 27th TOPIC: CORRECT WATER BAPTISM TEXT: Mark 16:15-16 KEY VERSE: Matthew 28:19 Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost. The believer requires water baptism. The baptism that Jesus commanded is in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost. It is done by immersion in water because the three Persons are One. In Acts of the Apostles, the people were baptizing in the name of Jesus. They used the phrase “in the name of Jesus” to indicate that the baptism was carried out as authorized by Jesus, and the baptism authorized by Jesus is that which is done in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost. It is not to say that they dip people in water and say, “I baptize you in the name of Jesus.” The name of Jesus cannot represent the Godhead. The Father is not Jesus, the Holy Spirit is not Jesus, Jesus is God who be
