What Does It Mean That God's Glory Shines Through Us?

What does it mean for the glory of God to shine through ordinary people?

In 2 Corinthians 4, Paul describes the light of God's glory revealed in the face of Jesus Christ, and the extraordinary treasure carried in jars of clay.

God's glory reveals His character. As we come to know the Father through Jesus, His love, compassion, mercy and faithfulness become increasingly evident in our lives.

We don't have to manufacture His glory. The treasure is His, and the transforming work belongs to the Holy Spirit.

Key Scripture: 2 Corinthians 4:6–7

Related Scriptures: 2 Corinthians 3:18, John 14:9

Themes: God's glory, jars of clay, the Father's character, transformation, revealing Christ.
