How does God prepare His people for glory?

Answered in 1 source

God prepares His people for glory through processes of sanctification, often involving trials and suffering.

The preparation of God’s people for eternal glory is rooted in His sovereign grace. Ephesians 1:4-5 conveys that believers are predestined to be adopted as sons, signifying a purposeful design by God for their lives. As they journey through trials and tribulations, these experiences refine and mature their faith. The suffering they endure is temporary but serves to perfect them, making them more like Christ. This transformative process ultimately leads to their glorification when they will be like Him, as indicated in 1 John 3:2. Thus, through trials, God is actively shaping believers for the glory and joy that awaits them in eternity.
