The Bellator Christi Podcast

By: Dr. Brian Chilton and Curtis Evelo | January 24, 2023

Dr. Brian Chilton and Curtis Evelo discuss the final aspect of salvation which is called “glorification.” They note how glorification comes in the intermediate state after one’s death. They also speak to the resurrected body at the Second Coming of Christ and the final culmination of the glorification process seen in the New Creation.

1. What do we mean by “glorification”?

2. Are we glorified at death? If so, what happens at the point of death? Where do we go?

3. Is the heavenly abode in the intermediate state the same as Paradise?

4. How are we glorified at the Second Coming of Christ?

5. What can we know about our glorified bodies?

6. How is our glorification found in the New Creation?

7. Can we be assured that we will partake in the glorification that God provides?
