The Father gives His glory to the Son that the Son may express Him in His nature, life, and attributes in the divine sonship for the Father’s glorification.
The Son Giving the Divine Glory to His Believers
The Son gives the divine glory in the divine sonship to His believers, who are the many sons of God sharing the divine sonship with Him. The Father gives His glory to His Son. The Son has the right to express God in the sonship. Such a right to glorify God in the sonship has been given to all the disciples of Christ because they are God’s sons and have His sonship.
Kept in the Father’s Love
Eventually, the incorporated oneness is kept in the Father’s love through the coinhering of the Triune God with the believers in Christ for eternity as the New Jerusalem ( vv. 23b-26 ).
The Bible tells us that in the universe there is only one sovereign Lord. This fact is undeniable. It has been proven by science, by your heart, and by the longing in your spirit that there is one unique sovereign Lord in the universe. You may call Him Jehovah; you may call Him Jesus; you may call Him the Triune God; you may also call Him the Lord of heaven and earth, the God of all things. He is the origin of the universe and the source of all things.
God created all things in the universe for man. The heavens are for the earth, and the earth is for man. If there were no heavens, then there would be no sunlight, air, or rain, and the living things would not grow. These things are for the earth and for the men on earth. Thank the Lord that the earth produces everything we need for our existence. The earth produces all the things that our bodies need. Therefore, the heavens are for the earth, and the earth is for man. Man’s living on earth is not meaningless. Man was created for God. Therefore, God created man with a spirit that man may contact and receive Him. God is Spirit, and those who contact Him must contact Him in spirit. Just as only metals can conduct electricity, so only the spirit can communicate with the Spirit.
