Introduction to What Is the Glory of God by Dr Michael H Yeager
"The Radiant Splendor: God's Glory Revealed"
I am about to embark on an extraordinary journey, you see. I'm crafting a book dedicated to the glory of our Lord, a theme that is so profound, so far-reaching, it's nearly beyond our understanding. Truly, the word 'glory' feels almost too small to contain the magnitude of God. His every facet sparkles with it — His essence, His character, His identity, His incredible creation, His deeds, and all that He undertakes shimmer with a resplendent glory.
Indeed, the Holy Scriptures affirm this truth, speaking of God's glory as being evident in all that He has shaped and brought into being. Reflecting on the book of Romans, specifically chapter one, verse 20, it articulates, "For the invisible things of him from the creation of the world are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even his eternal power and Godhead; so that they are without excuse." As we cast our eyes upon the expanse of His creation, we bear witness to the glorious works of God.
When we say 'glory', we could also use words like splendor, beauty, magnificence, awe-inspiring - all these words paint a picture of God's glory. He is utterly splendid, utterly beautiful, and utterly magnificent in all that He does.
But glory doesn't merely pertain to creation alone. There's another layer to it that is tied to the Lord's deeds, His interactions, and even our salvation. The Holy Scriptures refer to the Gospel as the 'glorious gospel'. The verse from 1 Corinthians 2:9 tells us, "But as it is written, 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." Here, we get a glimpse of the unimaginable wonders that God has in store for those who love Him.
In conclusion, God's glory is something that permeates every aspect of His being and every act that He performs. It's seen in the majesty of His creation, the salvation offered through the 'glorious gospel', and the blessings that He has readied for those who love Him. The exploration of this topic, of God's iridescent splendor, will be an enlightening and uplifting journey, one I hope will bring us closer to understanding and appreciating the boundless glory of our God.
