Christ in You the Hope of Glory - His Face Ever Before Us

What Does Jesus Look Like in His Glory? Having a relationship with someone, especially the Lord means you spend time together. When we have Communion at the Lord's Table (wherever we might be) He is waiting for us to share His life with us. Just like we carry memories of our children or friends we can "see them" in our mind's eye. Because Jesus dines with us and we dine with Him we store up memories of our relationship with Him; things we share with Him, things He has shown us or told us about. Communion is a place that memories are made with Jesus. When He appears and we encounter Him He has many faces, robes, locations and things to share with us. We know its Him somehow because the Holy Spirit confirms it, visually, by sound, touch and to our heart and mind. 

Daniel Saw Him:
I lifted my eyes and looked, and behold, there was a certain man dressed in linen, whose waist was girded with a belt of pure gold of Uphaz. His body also was like beryl, his face had the appearance of lightning, his eyes were like flaming torches, his arms and feet like the gleam of polished bronze, and the sound of his words like the sound of a tumult. Now I, Daniel, alone saw the vision, while the men who were with me did not see the vision; nevertheless, a great dread fell on them, and they ran away to hide themselves Daniel 10:5-7

Jesus revealed His 'eternal nature' while He was still walking on the earth. Six days later Jesus took with Him Peter and James and John his brother, and led them up on a high mountain by themselves. And He was transfigured before them; and His face shone like the sun, and His garments became as white as light. And behold, Moses and Elijah appeared to them, talking with Him. Matthew 17:1-3, Marke9: 2-4, Luke 9:28-30

1 John 1:1-3 That which was from the beginning, which we have heard, which we have seen with our eyes, which we have looked at and our hands have touched—this we proclaim concerning the Word of life. The life appeared; we have seen it and testify to it, and we proclaim to you the eternal life, which was with the Father and has appeared to us. We proclaim to you what we have seen and heard, so that you also may have fellowship with us. And our fellowship is with the Father and with his Son, Jesus Christ. We write this to make our joy complete.

1 John 3:2 Dear friends, now we are children of God, and what we will be has not yet been made known. But we know that when Christ appears, we shall be like him, for we shall see him as he is.
