When one sees the glory of God they confirm the statement by Jesus and are assured that they believe because the son of man says;

"If you believe you'll see the glory of God."


Do you see the glory of God?

If not, you don't believe.

I see it and I keep His word.

Do you think I see the glory of God?

People think of the glory of God as something they will only see when they die but Jesus gives His followers the glory given to Him so if you do not know His glory then you do not know God's glory.

This is not something so fantastic it is unreal but you must change your way of thinking.

God's glory is for the righteous to see not for sinners.

I can reveal it to you if you serve God as the son and follow His servants.

You will not see me until you say "blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord" and follow me.

He who believes in me seeks the glory of God and shall enter the kingdom of heaven.

No one can enter the kingdom of God unless they seek His glory.

He who seeks the glory of the One who sent him is truthful and there is no unrighteousness in him.

Amen !!!

I would only add

2Co 3:18
But we all, with open face beholding as in a glass the glory of the Lord, are changed into the same image from glory to glory , even as by the Spirit of the Lord.

so our hope is to see His glory more every day .

So does anyone hear see God's glory, or not?

"How can you be saved when you seek the glory of men but do not seek the glory of the only God."

Sinners think they are saints,
saints know they are sinners.
All fall short.

Depends what you mean by Glory.
I had a spiritual awakening after 45 yrs of atheism, God entered my mind and changed things around for me.
Then I was a "New creature".
I experienced God, its quite a shock.
My observation is most Christians a fervent believers but have not had the experience.

What does God think His glory is? That is what one needs to know.

The Lord says this; "I shall put salvation in Zion and give to Israel my glory."

If Zion is Israel then salvation is what? God's glory?

If God's glory is salvation then what is salvation to God. What saves?

"The words of the upright save them but the speech of the wicked is a deadly ambush."

"Man does not live by bread alone but by every word from the mouth of God"


What is salvation if man is alive because of the word of God?

Then what is the glory of God?

What does Jesus give His followers? The glory given to Him.
