Father, Glorify Your Son - 19 May 2026

from Making Friends With The Lord Jesus · host Fr. Edwin

I reflect on the theological significance of Christ’s glorification through the lens of the Gospel of John. The speaker emphasizes that while God’s perfect nature requires no validation from humanity, glorifying the Creator sanctifies and benefits the believer. By examining the life of Jesus, particularly his sacrificial mission on the cross, I illustrate how Christ’s “hour” serves as the ultimate act of obedience and merit. The discussion further connects these divine concepts to practical Christian life, touching on the importance of the sacraments and the upcoming celebration of Pentecost. Ultimately, the narrative highlights a spiritual exchange where humans offer their sins and worship in return for divine grace and the promise of eternal life.
