To be glorified in Christ means that believers will share in His future glory and righteousness, fully revealed in heaven.
Glorification is the final step in the sequence of salvation, as described in Romans 8:30, which speaks of those whom God justified, He also glorified. This means that believers will ultimately experience complete transformation, sharing in Christ’s glory and perfection in the life to come. While believers experience a measure of this glory now through their union with Christ, the fullness of glorification will occur at the resurrection when they will be made completely like Him. This assurance serves as a source of hope and encouragement for Christians, reminding them that their future with God is secured and radiant.
