What does it mean that God has already “glorified” believers in Christ, even as we still wait for future glory? In this sermon from Ephesians 2:1–7, we consider the contrast between who we were in Adam—dead in sins, walking according to the world, and children of wrath—and who we now are in Christ: made alive, raised up, and seated together with Him in the heavenly places.

This message explores glorification as both a present reality and a future hope. Through passages in Romans 8, Ephesians 1, Colossians 1, and Philippians 2, we see that believers have received the Spirit of adoption, have been translated into the kingdom of God’s dear Son, and are now called to walk as children of light while awaiting the redemption of the body and the full revelation of glory to come.
