Transformed From Glory to Glory

Second Corinthians 3 reveals one of the great truths of the Christian life: God does not transform us primarily through greater effort, but through a deeper vision of Christ. Paul contrasts the old covenant with the new and shows that, under the ministry of the Holy Spirit, believers are given new life, an unveiled view of Christ's glory, and are progressively changed into His likeness.

The Christian life begins with an instantaneous work of God—we become a new creation in Christ (2 Corinthians 5:17). But it does not end there. From that moment forward, God begins a lifelong work of transforming us into the likeness of His Son. 

In this post, I'd like to focus on four aspects of the new life in Christ that help us understand what it truly means to be "transformed from glory to glory."

A New Heart - God changes who we are.

The first aspect of the new life in Christ is a new heart, whereby God changes who we are. In 2 Cor 3:3–6, we come to learn that the Spirit writes God's law on our hearts, which is a key aspect of the new covenant. Christianity is not merely external obedience but an inward work of the Holy Spirit. True transformation begins on the inside. As Paul says, "The letter kills, but the Spirit gives life." (v. 6).

A New Vision - God changes what we see.

The second aspect of the new life in Christ is a new vision, whereby God changes what we see. In 2 Cor 3:7–16, Paul teaches us that Christ removes the veil that blinds unbelieving hearts. Only through Christ can we truly see God's glory. Transformation begins with revelation.

A New Freedom  - God changes how we live.

The third aspect of the new life in Christ is a new freedom, whereby God changes how we live. In 2 Cor 3:17, it says,  "Where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is freedom." Freedom is not a license to sin but freedom from sin's bondage and from condemnation. The Spirit liberates us to know, love, and obey Christ.

A New Likeness - God changes what we become.

The fourth aspect of the new life in Christ is a new likeness, whereby God changes what we become. This is found in the climax of Paul's third chapter in 2 Cor 3:18, which says, "And we all, who with unveiled faces contemplate the Lord's glory, are being transformed into his image with ever-increasing glory, which comes from the Lord, who is the Spirit." 

We behold Christ with unveiled faces. As we gaze upon Him through Scripture and by the Holy Spirit (eg., prayer and worship), we are changed into His image. This transformation is progressive—"from glory to glory"—as the Spirit conforms us more and more to Christ. Beholding His glory, we are transformed from glory to glory.

Many Christians instinctively think:

Try harder → become holier.

But Paul reverses the order:

Behold Christ → become like Christ.

This keeps the focus on God's grace rather than self-effort. We are not transformed by striving to manufacture holiness, but by continually fixing our eyes on Christ, whose glory reshapes us from the inside out through the work of the Holy Spirit.

Closing Words

The movement of 2 Corinthians 3 is beautifully simple, as the graphic below shows us:

This chapter teaches that seeing leads to becoming. The Holy Spirit gives us new life, removes the veil from our hearts, and enables us to behold the glory of Christ. As we continue to gaze upon Him, He progressively transforms us into His likeness until the day we share fully in His eternal glory. 

The Christian life can be viewed through three complementary passages:

• 2 Corinthians 5:17 — We are made new.
• 2 Corinthians 3:18 — We are being transformed.
• Romans 8:29 — We will be conformed to the image of His Son.

From beginning to end, God's purpose has never changed: to make His children like Christ. We don't become like Christ by taking our eyes off Him and focusing on ourselves. We become like Christ by fixing our eyes on Him. The Holy Spirit removes the veil from our hearts so that, by continually beholding the glory of Christ, we are progressively transformed into His likeness from glory to glory. The longer we behold His glory, the more we reflect His glory.

Do You Want to Know Him?
If you want to know Jesus, you can. It all begins when you repent and believe in Him.  Do you know what God's Word, the Bible says?

“Jesus came into Galilee, preaching the gospel of God, and saying, ‘The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God is at hand; repent and believe in the gospel.’” (Mar 1:14b-15).  He preached that we must repent and believe.

Lifting Your Face in Prayer

Does your posture or the direction you look in during prayer really matter?  I believe it does, as I've written about previously in my post called Lifting Hands in Prayer. I believe the Lord honors every act of faith, and certain postures open you up to receive from the Lord more readily. One of those is lifting up your head and eyes to God in prayer.  Here is the Scriptural basis for it:

David lifted his eyes to the Lord in prayer
David lifted his eyes to the Lord in prayer. “To You I lift up my eyes, O You who are enthroned in the heavens!” (Psa 123:1)

David also wrote of the generation who seeks the Lord’s face.  He spoke metaphorically to indicate that we are like gates or doors, which have the ability to open up and let the Lord come in or remain shut. “This is the generation of those who seek Him, Who seek Your face--even Jacob. Selah. Lift up your heads, O gates, And be lifted up, O ancient doors, That the King of glory may come in! Who is the King of glory? The LORD strong and mighty, The LORD mighty in battle. Lift up your heads, O gates, And lift them up, O ancient doors, That the King of glory may come in! Who is this King of glory? The LORD of hosts, He is the King of glory. Selah.”  (Psa 24:6-10) If we gates want the Lord of hosts, the King of glory, to come in, then we are invited to lift up our heads.

Jesus said, “Behold, I stand at the door and knock; if anyone hears My voice and opens the door, I will come in to him and will dine with him, and he with Me.” (Rev 3:20)

Jesus told us to lift up our heads in expectation of His return. "But when these things begin to take place, straighten up and lift up your heads, because your redemption is drawing near." (Luk 21:28). This is a way of loving the Lord with your strength, as well as your heart and mind.  You change your whole posture to open up with joyful expectation for the Lord to come.

Sin Keeps Men from Lifting Up Their Face to God
Ezra told the Lord it was sin that kept him from lifting up his face to God.  “And I said, ‘O my God, I am ashamed and embarrassed to lift up my face to You, my God, for our iniquities have risen above our heads and our guilt has grown even to the heavens.’” (Ezr 9:6)

This was the reason the sinful tax collector would not lift up his eyes to heaven.  "But the tax collector, standing some distance away, was even unwilling to lift up his eyes to heaven, but was beating his breast, saying, 'God, be merciful to me, the sinner!'  (Luk 18:13)

If there is sin in your life, you should not lift your eyes proudly to the Lord. You should humbly confess your sin, repent, and ask the Lord to forgive you. “If we confess our sins, He is faithful and righteous to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.”  (1Jn 1:9)

Then you can lift your eyes once again in prayer, and come before the Lord with clean hands.  Therefore let us draw near with confidence to the throne of grace, so that we may receive mercy and find grace to help in time of need.  (Heb 4:16)

Nebuchadnezzar raised his Eyes Toward Heaven
When king Nebuchadnezzar was judged by God for his great pride, he experienced seven years of living outdoors like an animal.  He had the mind of an animal and could not rule his kingdom.  The Scripture says, "Immediately the word concerning Nebuchadnezzar was fulfilled; and he was driven away from mankind and began eating grass like cattle, and his body was drenched with the dew of heaven until his hair had grown like eagles' feathers and his nails like birds' claws.” (Dan 4:33).  I assume he could not even speak normally, but maybe grunted or growled or even howled.

But notice what happened at the end of that time.  He himself testified, "But at the end of that period, I, Nebuchadnezzar, raised my eyes toward heaven and my reason returned to me, and I blessed the Most High and praised and honored Him who lives forever; For His dominion is an everlasting dominion, And His kingdom endures from generation to generation. “ (Dan 4:34).  He said, “I…raised my eyes toward heaven and my reason returned to me.” The Lord honored that one, simple act of humility and faith on his part.  Then he blessed the Most High and praised and honored Him. 

Our God is awesome.  And when we will raise our eyes to Him in childlike faith, adoration, and total dependence, He takes notice.

Jesus Lifted His Eyes in Prayer
Jesus lifted His eyes to heaven in prayer.  "Then He took the five loaves and the two fish, and looking up to heaven, He blessed them, and broke them, and kept giving them to the disciples to set before the people." (Luk 9:16)

He didn't look down or stare at His navel when He prayed. “Jesus spoke these things; and lifting up His eyes to heaven, He said, ‘Father, the hour has come; glorify Your Son, that the Son may glorify You…’” (Joh 17:1)

Putting it All Together
Let me encourage you to lift up your face when you pray.  This is pleasing to the Lord, when you come to Him with clean hands and a pure heart.  As I've written about in my article called, The Link Between Two Realms, there is a definite link between the physical and spiritual realms.

Lift up your eyes to the Lord.  He's the One from whom your help comes. David prayed this way, Ezra did also, and so did Jesus.  The Bible teaches us to lift our heads up to God in prayer, and to love Him not only with all our heart and soul, but with all our strength, too.

Now I'd like to ask a very important question.

Do You Want to Know Him?
If you want to know Jesus personally, you can. It all begins when you repent and believe in Jesus.  Do you know what God's Word, the Bible says?

“Jesus came into Galilee, preaching the gospel of God, and saying, ‘The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God is at hand; repent and believe in the gospel.’” (Mar 1:14b-15).  He preached that we must repent and believe.

The Eyes of the Lord

Do you know who has the most beautiful eyes in the whole world?  Jesus Christ, our Lord and King!  He has His Father's eyes, and His Father is the God of the Universe.

His eyes are bursting with light, blazing like fire, burning with love and compassion. With holiness they pierce right through you. 

The Living One Who Sees me
The handmaiden of Sarah, the wife of Abraham, ran away from home.  Although she was pregnant and vulnerable, she couldn't take any more mistreatment from Sarah.  But God saw her fleeing into the countryside. "Now the angel of the LORD found her by a spring of water in the wilderness, by the spring on the way to Shur." (Gen 16:7)

Isn't it amazing how she was not even a Hebrew, and we have no record of her yet having a relationship with God!  But He loved her and cared for her.  He told her to name the boy in her womb Ishmael. Although he was not the son of promise, with whom God would make a covenant, He had plans for this child.  He was the child of Abraham, the friend of God, and it was for Abraham's sake that God did this. Abraham was called to be the father of many nations, and his son Ishmael would become the father of the Arab world.

God told her to go back to Abraham's tent and submit to Sarah.  So she gave this name to the Lord who spoke to her: “You are the God who sees me,” for she said, “I have now seen the One who sees me.” That is why the well was called Beer Lahai Roi; it is still there, between Kadesh and Bered. (Gen 16:13-14, NIV). Beer Lahai Roi  means “Well of the Living One Who sees me.”

God still loves and cares for the Muslim people, and wants to save them through His Son, Jesus Christ.  Many of them are having face to face encounters with the Lord Jesus today, and discovering that He is still the Living One Who sees them.  You can find more about this in the videos at the end of my post called "Ongoing Earthly Ministry of Jesus."  There is also a site called "More Than Dreams" that has some remarkable testimonies of Muslims seeing Jesus.

Finding Favor in His Eyes

In the days before the flood, the wickedness on the earth was great.  "Then the LORD saw that the wickedness of man was great on the earth, and that every intent of the thoughts of his heart was only evil continually." (Gen 6:5) None of this was hidden from God, for He sees all, the good and the evil. And because of it, He planned to destroy the earth and all living creatures.

Those were the days of the Nephilim, the heroes of old, men of renown.  These were not kind and gentle giants, but violent and evil ones.  You can read more about this in my post called "The Evil Nephilim Giants" to find out where they came from, and the implications of that for today.

But in the midst of that evil world, there was one man who kept himself and his family pure.  "Noah found favor in the eyes of the LORD." (Gen 6:8)  God looked at Noah's life and was pleased to see love and peace. So he and his family were the only ones who were saved from the deluge that destroyed the world. This true story has been confirmed by Ron Wyatt's archeological discovery of the ark in the mountains of Ararat (see here).

We live in a day and age when the world is even more wicked than it was in Noah's day.  I want to remain pure and find favor in God's eyes.  Don't you?

The LORD's Eyes Range Throughout the Earth
The Lord is searching for a certain kind of person on the earth today, whom He can bless.  "For the eyes of the LORD move to and fro throughout the earth that He may strongly support those whose heart is completely His. You have acted foolishly in this. Indeed, from now on you will surely have wars." (2Ch 16:9; cf., Zec 4:10) The kind of person who is blessable is the one whose heart is fully committed to the Lord.

King Asa made a terrible mistake.  In the passage cited above (2 Chronicles 16) you can read how this king was under attack.  Instead of fully committing himself and his nation to the Lord's care, he made an alliance with a foreign king who did not serve the one, true God.  He actually purchased their help with the gold and silver from the temple and his own palace.

He could have trusted the Lord to strengthen him like He did for Moses, Joshua, Caleb, and David, enabling them to conquer kingdoms and overcome giants.  But instead he put his trust in the arm of the flesh. As a result, a seer prophesied to him that he would always be at war after that.  Instead of strengthening his position by making this unholy alliance, he actually weakened it, and made certain that the Lord would not be with him in battle.

I have fully committed myself to the Lord. There's no other way to serve Him.  Don't hold anything back from Him, or rely on any man to save you. Commit yourself fully to the Lord.

Do what is right in the eyes of the LORD
It's necessary to always do what is right in the eyes of the LORD. (Deu 21:9)  That means you must never compromise with darkness or become partners with the world.

For the ways of a man are before the eyes of the LORD, And He watches all his paths. (Pro 5:21)

The eyes of the LORD are in every place, Watching the evil and the good. (Pro 15:3)

Live in the light and the Lord will be pleased with you.

The eyes of the LORD are toward the righteous
I'm always encouraged when I read the Psalm that says, "The eyes of the LORD are toward the righteous And His ears are open to their cry." (Psa 34:15) 

Peter quotes this psalm in his epistle saying, "FOR THE EYES OF THE LORD ARE TOWARD THE RIGHTEOUS, AND HIS EARS ATTEND TO THEIR PRAYER, BUT THE FACE OF THE LORD IS AGAINST THOSE WHO DO EVIL." (1Pe 3:12)

It's great to know He sees me and hears my cry. On the other hand, if I do evil, His face will be against me.   He is no respecter of persons.

No Creature is Hidden from His sight
You can't hide anything from the Lord.  I don't care if you do your dirty deeds at night when it's dark.  It doesn't matter if you go up to the International Space Station or take a submarine to the depths of the sea, and go behind a closed door, He sees you.  You can hide it from others, but you can't keep it from the eyes of the Lord.  And there is no creature hidden from His sight, but all things are open and laid bare to the eyes of Him with whom we have to do. (Heb 4:13)


When He Sees Sin
One thing the Lord will not tolerate or wink at is sin.  When He sees it, He's not pleased with it at all.  This happened when his disciples tried to stop people from bringing the children to Him to bless them.  "When Jesus saw this, He was indignant and said to them, "Permit the children to come to Me; do not hinder them; for the kingdom of God belongs to such as these. (Mar 10:14)

And the time He saw them doing business in the temple, He let them know what He thought about it. "The Passover of the Jews was near, and Jesus went up to Jerusalem. And He found in the temple those who were selling oxen and sheep and doves, and the money changers seated at their tables. And He made a scourge of cords, and drove them all out of the temple, with the sheep and the oxen; and He poured out the coins of the money changers and overturned their tables; and to those who were selling the doves He said, 'Take these things away; stop making My Father's house a place of business.'"  (Joh 2:13-16)

Eyes of Compassion
The Lord not only has eyes of holiness, but eyes of love and compassion.  When He sees people in trouble, He has compassion.  That's what He did for Jacob's wife Leah.  "Now the LORD saw that Leah was unloved, and He opened her womb, but Rachel was barren." (Gen 29:31). 

He did the same thing for the Israelite nation under Egyptian bondage: 'Then we cried to the LORD, the God of our fathers, and the LORD heard our voice and saw our affliction and our toil and our oppression; (Deu 26:7)

This is what Jesus did for the widow of Nain, whose only son had died.  The funeral procession was passing by, and there was the widow, weeping for her lost son.  "When the Lord saw her, He felt compassion for her, and said to her, 'Do not weep.'" (Luk 7:13)  Then Jesus raised the man from the dead and gave him back to his mother.

The same was true when Jesus saw the hunch-back lady. "And there was a woman who for eighteen years had had a sickness caused by a spirit; and she was bent double, and could not straighten up at all. When Jesus saw her, He called her over and said to her, 'Woman, you are freed from your sickness.' And He laid His hands on her; and immediately she was made erect again and began glorifying God." (Luk 13:11-13)


There was also a lame man, who had been disabled for 38 years.  "When Jesus saw him lying there, and knew that he had already been a long time in that condition, He said to him, 'Do you wish to get well?'" (Joh 5:6).  He saw that man and had compassion on him.  But He didn't assume the man wanted to be healed.  Jesus asked him if he wanted to get well, and when the man said he did, Jesus healed him.

It's so wonderful to read these passages about Jesus' eyes of compassion. But let's not forget what Jesus said to the man afterward.  "Afterward Jesus found him in the temple and said to him, 'Behold, you have become well; do not sin anymore, so that nothing worse happens to you.'"  (Joh 5:13-14).  This an important warning to remember.  Just because He has eyes of compassion on the weak and suffering, if we want to stay well and avoid having something worse happen to us, we must not sin anymore.  That means we need to do what is right in God's eyes, obey the Lord's commands, and live a holy life by the power of the Holy Spirit.

However, if anyone does sin, we have an Advocate with the Father.  We need to wholeheartedly repent of our sin, confess it to the Lord and He will cleanse us from all unrighteousness. If we confess our sins, He is faithful and righteous to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness. (1Jo 1:9)

If you are in a terrible plight right now, you need to know that the Lord sees you, too.  He has compassion for you.  And if you cry out to Him for mercy, He will hear you.  There's no problem too small, no sin too big. There is nothing He can't do! 


He Sees You Before You Come to Him
Lastly, the Lord sees you even before you come to Him.  This was the case with Nathaniel.  You will recall that the Scripture says, "Jesus saw Nathanael coming to Him, and said of him, 'Behold, an Israelite indeed, in whom there is no deceit!'" (Joh 1:47).

In the Hebrew culture, there was an expression about each man sitting under his own fig tree.  It meant that one was spending time meditating on the Scriptures, enjoying the peace, prosperity, and protection that God gives to those who meditate on His Word day and night.  Nathaniel was such a man in whom there was no guile.  He loved the Scriptures, and the Lord saw him in the Spirit before He ever saw him physically. 

If you love God and His Word, I can assure you that He sees you. Even if you have not yet come to know Him, you may be reading the Bible, praying, going to church services.  The Lord sees you and knows your heart.  But you need to know Him in order to be saved.  Your good works, church attendance, and Bible reading can't save you.

It's only through repentance and a personal relationship with the Lord Jesus Christ that you can be saved.

After I shared this message with my family, my fourteen-year-old daughter wrote a poem about the eyes of the Lord, which really captures the heart of this message. I hope you will take a moment to read it at "The Eyes of the Lord."

Seeing Jesus, Loving Him, Character, and Glory

Both cups can be full, but one is capable of holding more

In John Bunyan’s vision of heaven, the holy prophet Elijah told him: “The happiness and glory which all the blessed here enjoy is the result of their communion with and love to the ever blessed God. The more we see Him, the more we love Him; and love changes our souls into His nature, and from this results our glory. This makes a difference in the degrees of glory. Nor is there any murmuring in one to see another’s glory much greater than his own. The ever blessed God is an unbounded ocean of light and life, and joy and happiness, still filling every vessel that is put therein, till it can hold no more. And though the vessels are of several sizes, while each is filled there is none that can complain. My answer therefore to your question is that those who have the most enlarged capacity do love God most, and are thereby changed most into His likeness. This is the highest glory heaven can give. Nor let this seem strange to you, for even among God’s flaming angels there are diversities of order and different degrees of glory.”

See Him --> Love Him --> become more like Him --> see Him --> love Him more --> etc

Here is how this applies to us while we are still on earth.  Paul wrote: "But we all, with unveiled face, beholding as in a mirror the glory of the Lord, are being transformed into the same image from glory to glory, just as from the Lord, the Spirit." (2Co 3:18) You see, God wanted to make each and every one of us conformed to the image of his Son, so that as we view Him (God), we are transformed into the same image from glory to glory!  

When we seek His face we will see Him.  When we see Him, our capacity to love Him is enlarged, and we love Him more.  Then we will become more like Him.  This starts the whole cycle over again: seeing Him, loving Him, becoming more like Him, seeing Him, loving Him, etc.   This continues after we get to heaven.  But depending on how we lived on earth, we will enter heaven “at different places,” and some people in heaven will not love Him as much as others do.  But those who have this enlarged capacity to love, have a greater capacity to contain what God who is Love fills them with, which is His glory.  Therefore, those who love most will shine brightest with His glory in heaven.

I want to see Jesus and love Him with the same love with which He loves me.  I want to purify myself and become more like Him, as John said, "Beloved, now we are children of God, and it has not appeared as yet what we will be. We know that when He appears, we will be like Him, because we will see Him just as He is. And everyone who has this hope fixed on Him purifies himself, just as He is pure." (1Jo 3:2-3)

I am pursuing holiness, since no man can see the Lord without holiness.  As Paul wrote: "Follow peace with all men, and holiness, without which no man shall see the Lord." (Heb 12:14).  Let me encourage you to do the same.
