Called to Glory through the Cross

Matthew 17:22-23

"As they were gathering in Galilee, Jesus said to them, “The Son of Man is about to be delivered into the hands of men,  and they will kill him, and he will be raised on the third day.” And they were greatly distressed."

"He called you to salvation when we told you the Good News; now you can share in the glory of our Lord Jesus Christ."
(2 Thessalonians 2:14 NLT)
