The Church, the Body of Christ, is the instrument through which God will bring salvation to the nations of the earth. When Christ returns to the earth and receives the Church into complete, perfect union with Himself:
The world will believe that God has sent Christ.
The saints will receive the glory that God the Father has given to Christ.
The world will know that God loves the saints as He loves His firstborn Son, Jesus Christ.
The saints will be with Jesus forever and will behold His glory.
Where will this Divine union and glory be brought into being? It will be brought into being in the sight of the nations of the world so they may believe in Christ and be saved.
