The Bible Story of Jesus’ Glory
The Bible reveals the glory of Jesus in many ways.
On the mountain, Peter, James, and John saw the Transfiguration of Jesus. Jesus’ appearance changed, and His face and clothes shone with glory. Moses and Elijah appeared with Him, and a voice from heaven said, “This is my Son, whom I love; with him I am well pleased.” This moment showed the disciples something of Jesus’ divine glory.
The glory of Jesus is also seen in His death and resurrection. Jesus gave His life on the cross for sinners, and on the third day He rose again. The resurrection showed His victory over sin and death and proved that He truly is the Son of God.
After His resurrection, Jesus appeared to His followers and later returned to heaven in the Ascension. As the disciples watched, Jesus was taken up, and a cloud hid Him from their sight. The Ascension reminds us that Jesus is exalted and reigns in glory.
The Bible also teaches that Jesus will return one day. In the story behind the Jesus Second Coming Cloud Reveal Craft, children are reminded that the Son of Man will come again in glory. This promise gives believers hope and points forward to the day when every eye will see Him.
The Bible says:
“We have seen his glory, the glory of the one and only Son.”
— John 1:14
These stories help children understand that Jesus is not just a teacher or a good man. He is the glorious Son of God, who died, rose again, ascended to heaven, and will return.
