What does the Bible say about glorying in the Lord?
Answered in 4 sources
The Bible teaches that we should glory in the Lord alone, as it is written, 'He that glorieth, let him glory in the Lord' (1 Corinthians 1:31).
The Apostle Paul emphasizes in 1 Corinthians 1:18-31 that glorying in the Lord is essential for believers. It is through the revelation of God in Christ that we find our true boast. Human accomplishments, wisdom, or signs are not the objects of our glory; instead, we glory in God’s gospel, which is the power of salvation. This perspective aligns with the historic Reformed understanding that salvation is entirely the work of Christ and not based on our efforts or understanding. Believers are called to recognize that true wisdom and righteousness come solely from Jesus Christ, the one who redeems and sanctifies us.
