Overview
God's glory—His manifest presence, splendor, and divine attributes—is central to biblical faith. Scripture reveals that God's glory will ultimately fill the nations and transform creation. The gospel reveals Christ as the brightness of God's glory, superseding all earthly splendor and religious systems.
