VII. THE MANY SONS BEING CONSTITUTED
IN TO THE IMAGE OF THE FIRSTBORN SON OF GOD
1) “Whom [God’s many sons] He [God] foreknew, He also predestinated to be conformed to the image of His Son, that He should be the Firstborn among many brothers” (Romans 8:29).
This verse says that in eternity God predestinated us, the many sons of God, to be conformed to the image of the firstborn Son of God, Christ. This will be accomplished when the firstborn Son of God comes again to the inhabited earth (Heb. 1:6) to rapture us and to transfigure our body. We were regenerated in the resurrection of Christ to be the sons of God, who are like Him, the firstborn Son of God. Following this, we are being transformed daily in the Lord Spirit into the same image as Christ’s, who is the firstborn Son of God. When the Lord comes again, our body will be redeemed, transfigured, and conformed to the body of His glory (Rom. 8:23; Phil. 3:21). By that time, we shall be completely conformed to His image, to be fully like Him even in our body (1 John 3:2), enjoying with Him the eternal divine glory. Such a glorification is the ultimate peak of our conformation in the life of Christ.
