I know the apostles do not want us to glory in the flesh.
What exactly does it mean to glory in the LORD and in the SPIRIT? Does this mean that in Heaven we will have honor and glory and be lifted up and have positions of authority? 1 Corinthians 1:31-- That, according as it is written, He that glorieth, let him glory in the Lord. 2 Corinthians 10:17 -- But he that glorieth, let him glory in the Lord. Galatians 6:14 -- But God forbid that I should glory, save in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ, by whom the world is crucified unto me, and I unto the world. 2 Corinthians 11:17-29 --That which I speak, I speak it not after the Lord, but as it were foolishly, in this confidence of boasting. 18Seeing that many glory after the flesh, I will glory also. 19For ye suffer fools gladly, seeing ye yourselves are wise.

Romans 10:9-13 -- 9That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved. 10For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation. 11For the scripture saith, Whosoever believeth on him shall not be ashamed. 12For there is no difference between the Jew and the Greek: for the same Lord over all is rich unto all that call upon him. 13For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved. Acts 4:12 -- Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved. John 3:17 -- For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved. John 14:6 -- Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me. Whoever makes fun of these Scriptures is not going to have the last laugh, I can guarantee you that! This a very serious matter of utmost gravity and sincerity. Your life hangs in the balance. Believe on the name of the Lord and be saved. Read what Romans 10 says above and do that proceedure. Become one of HIS saints. |

From what I gather, it may be giving glory to the Lord, not to yourself.

Do not pleasure in a victory that is unclean and doesn't belong to the Lord. If it does not please Him, it should not please you.

All boasting, all confidence is in Him and Him alone with no credit given to any man.

Jeremiah
9:23 Thus saith the LORD, Let not the wise man glory in his wisdom, delight, saith the LORD.neither let the mighty man glory in his might, let not the rich man glory in his riches: 9:24 But let him that glorieth glory in this, that he understandeth and knoweth me, that I am the LORD which exercise lovingkindness, judgment, and righteousness, in the earth: for in these things I
