Jesus' DeathPreaching Theme, Systematic Theology
Jesus's death by crucifixion was a divinely ordained historical event by which he lovingly accomplished atonement, purchased Christians' freedom from sin's bondage, won their justification before the Father, and triumphed over Satan's tyranny.
GloryGlory of God
The power, might, or splendor of an individual. In Christian theology, this often relates to God.
John 11:1–4Now, there was a certain one sick, Lazarus from Bethany, from the village of Mary and Martha, her sister. Now, it was Mary, she who anointed the Lord with ointment and who wiped dry His feet with her hair, whose brother Lazarus was sick. Therefore, the sisters sent word to Him saying, Lord, behold, he of whom you are fond is sick. And Jesus, having heard, said, This sickness is not with reference to death but for the sake of the glory of God, in order that the Son of God might be glorified through it.
John 11:38–45Jesus again moved with indignation in himself comes to the tomb. Now, it was a cave, and a stone was lying upon it. Jesus says, Remove the stone at once. The sister of the one who had died, Martha, says to Him, Lord, already there is an offensive odor, for it is four days. Jesus says to her, Did I not say to you that if you would believe, you will see the glory of God? Then they lifted up the stone and took it away. And Jesus lifted up His eyes and said, Father, I thank you because you heard me. Moreover, I knew positively that you always hear me. But on account of the crowd which is standing around, I spoke, in order that they may come to believe that you sent me on a mission. And having said these things, He shouted with a great voice, Lazarus, here, out. There came out the dead man, bound securely as to his feet and his hands with swathing-bands. And his face was bound around with a handkerchief. Jesus says to them, Untie him at once and permit him to be departing. Therefore, many of the Jews, those who had come to Mary and had viewed attentively that which He did, believed in Him.
