20 “I do not pray for these alone, but also for those who will believe in Me through their word; 21 that they all may be one, as You, Father, are in Me, and I in You; that they also may be one in Us,

that the world may believe that You sent Me. 22 And the glory which You gave Me I have given them, that they may be one just as We are one: 23 I in them, and You in Me; that they may be

made perfect in one, and that the world may know that You have sent Me, and have loved them as

You have loved Me.

24 “Father, I desire that they also whom You gave Me may be with Me where I am, that they may

behold My glory which You have given Me; for You loved Me before the foundation of the world. 25 O

righteous Father! The world has not known You, but I have known You; and these have known that You sent Me. 26 And I have declared to them Your name, and will declare it, that the love with which

You loved Me may be in them, and I in them.”

John 17:20-26 NKJ

4 Abide in Me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit of itself, unless it abides in the vine,

neither can you, unless you abide in Me.5 “I am the vine, you are the branches. He who abides in Me, and I in him, bears much fruit; for

without Me you can do nothing.

John 15:4-5 NKJ

• Moses beheld Gods glory and carried Gods glory from that meeting place

7 The old way, with laws etched in stone, led to death, though it began with such glory that the people of Israel

could not bear to look at Moses’ face. For his face shone with the glory of God, even though the

brightness was already fading away. 8 Shouldn’t we expect far greater glory under the new way, now that

the Holy Spirit is giving life? 9 If the old way, which brings condemnation, was glorious, how much more

glorious is the new way, which makes us right with God!

10 In fact, that first glory was not glorious at all compared with the overwhelming glory of the new way.

11 So if the old way, which has been replaced, was glorious, how much more glorious is the new, which

remains forever!

2 Corinthians 3:7-11 NLT

12 Since this new way gives us such confidence, we can be very bold. 13 We are not like Moses, who put a veil over his face so the people of Israel would not see the

glory, even though it was destined to fade away. 14 But the people’s minds were hardened, and to this day

whenever the old covenant is being read, the same veil covers their minds so they cannot understand the truth. And this veil can be removed only by believing in Christ.

16 But whenever someone turns to the Lord, the veil is taken away. 17 For the Lord is the Spirit, and wherever the Spirit of the Lord is, there is freedom. 18 So all of us who have had that veil removed can see and reflect the

glory of the Lord. And the Lord—who is the Spirit—makes us more and more like him as we are changed

into his glorious image.

2 Corinthians 3:12-18 NLT

44 Now all who believed were together, and had all things in common, 45 and sold their possessions and

goods, and divided them among all, as anyone had need.46 So continuing daily with one accord in the temple, and breaking bread from house to house, they ate their food

with gladness and simplicity of heart, 47 praising God and having favor with all the people. And the Lord added to

the church daily those who were being saved.

Acts 2:44-47 NKJ
